Los Angeles, California--(Newsfile Corp. - March 6, 2023) - SRAX, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRAX), a leading financial technology company, has announced the successful sale of its wholly owned subsidiary LD Micro Inc. to Freedom Holding Corp (NASDAQ: FRHC) for $8,300,000.

The sale of LD Micro, a conference that has historically attracted a high caliber of presenting companies and attendees, marks a strategic move for SRAX. As a result of the sale, SRAX will maintain exclusive rights to stream the conference, film interviews, and hold an exclusive position as a market intelligence platform and digital advertising sponsor of the event.

The sale of LD Micro also allows SRAX to focus on its own growing virtual conferencing platform and Sequire branded events. In 2022, Sequire hosted 28 virtual and in-person events across multiple markets, including Biotech, Blockchain, Gaming, Cannabis, Pharmaceuticals, and more. SRAX has plans to expand its Sequire-branded conferences, including its upcoming Investor Summit in Puerto Rico on April 24-26, 2023.

Ownership of LD Micro has provided valuable insights to SRAX, enabling the company to develop its own virtual conferencing platform, which has been successfully licensed by some of the largest banks and many publicly traded issuers. SRAX plans to continue to expand this platform and enhance its offerings.

"We purchased LD Micro to learn what we needed for the launch of our own virtual conference platform. We successfully launched our software and hosted over 28 conferences last year. We now plan to launch a series of in-person Sequire branded events," said Christopher Miglino, Founder and CEO of SRAX. "With this sale, we have also secured the exclusive right to be the only platform such as Sequire and its related services at the LD Micro conference for the next four years. We believe that Freedom will be able to grow the number of companies presenting at the event, and Sequire will benefit from this exposure. We look forward to our continued partnership with Freedom as they solidify their position in the investment banking space."

Overall, the sale of LD Micro marks a strategic move for SRAX, providing the company with new opportunities to expand its Sequire-branded conferences and further solidify its position as a leading financial technology company.

A percentage of the proceeds will be used to pay down a portion of the company's senior secured debt and to buy back SRAX common shares in the open market. For more details on the transaction, please SRAX's Form 8K filled with the Securities & Exchange Commision.
