February 7, 2019 - Vancouver, British Columbia - Toronto, ON – NexTech AR Solutions (the “Company” or “NexTech”) (CSE: NTAR) (OTC: NEXCF) (FSE:N29) announced today it has achieved milestone revenue generation for the month of January 2019. The Company reported revenue of $284,000 USD OR $375,000 CDN, its highest monthly result to date.
The Company attributes the strong revenue generation to its successful eCommerce acquisition previously announced in January of this year and looks forward to continued revenue growth. The acquisition of an established eCommerce business provided the Company the opportunity to generate immediate revenue, while also offering a platform to showcase its own patent pending web-enabled augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions to key partners and well-known brands.
“We are pleased to reach a record revenue milestone for the month of January and to highlight immediate success from our growth by acquisition strategy,” said Evan Gappelberg, CEO of NexTech. “When targeting companies to acquire, we are seeking out opportunities for immediate revenue but also key partnerships and innovative technologies which we can utilize for both our customers and ourselves. He continues “We are actively working to identify additional opportunities to grow our business and provide value to our shareholders, while also building out a powerful and dynamic AR/AI platform which helps online retailers increase customer engagement and boost sales.”
The company is continuing to develop its new business pipeline, targeting high-growth verticals such as eCommerce, Education & Training, and Live Streaming & Telepresence, with an initial focus on the global retail eCommerce market, projected to reach $4.8 trillion in 2021. Recent research has shown that 40% of online shoppers would be willing to pay more for a product if they could experience it through AR, while 71% of shoppers indicated they would shop at a brand more often if it offered AR experiences.
NexTech’s AR platform for eCommerce provides online retailers with a frictionless 3D shopping experience that empowers shoppers to make purchasing decisions, which ultimately drives conversions and spend, and reduces returns leading to higher ROI.
