This transaction will allow NextTrip the ability to execute its growth plans and expand its reach into new markets for the benefit of Sigma equity holders, while tying the issuance of additional equity to clear business objectives for NextTrip. In addition, we signed a definitive agreement to sell our in-process quality-assurance technology suite of assets to Divergent Technologies, a fitting home for our technology. Divergent will build on our foundational work in connection with its DAPS platform, deploying DAPS structures across the automotive, aerospace and defense industries. . . . We are incredibly proud of the opportunity to amplify the growth plans of two impressive companies with these transactions, implying a solid valuation for Sigma and good positioning in public markets for NextTrip, and adding value from the sale of Sigma’s current assets to Divergent.”
