Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Public Companies.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Nov. 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Evolving Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVOL), a leader in real-time digital engagement solutions and services for connected mobile devices, today announced the expiration of the 30-day “go-shop” period under the terms of the previously announced purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) to sell all the Company’s operating subsidiaries and all of the assets of its Customer Acquisition and Network Services division (‘Activation’) as well as its CVML and Loyalty Business (‘Marketing’) to PartnerOne Capital. The “go-shop” period expired at 11:59 a. m. EST on November 15, 2021.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Board of Directors of Evolving Systems, with the assistance of its financial advisors ValueScope, Inc., actively solicited alternative acquisition proposals from third parties and was responsive to inbound interest generated from our transaction announcement. No third party tendered a superior acquisition proposal by the “go-shop” deadline. Upon the expiration of the “go-shop” period, pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, Evolving Systems became subject to customary “no-shop” provisions that limit Evolving Systems and its representatives’ abilities to negotiate alternative acquisition proposals with, or provide confidential information to, third parties, subject to exceptions specified in the Purchase Agreements.

The transaction previously announced is expected to close in 2021, subject to approval by Evolving Systems’ stockholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
