MICT - Earnings call transcript Q2 2020

Thank you, and good morning, everybody. If I can turn your attention to Slide 3 of the presentation, we're very pleased and excited to have recently closed two critical transactions, which are contemplated to create significant value for MICT shareholders. In connection with such transactions pursuant to which MICT now controls operating businesses in the global fintech sector, GFH; and the telematics sector, Micronet, MICT believes that it is well positioned to grow revenues and earnings. On July 1, 2020 MICT completed the acquisition of GFH for approximately US$25 million in convertible securities of MICT, launching MICT into the global fintech industry. Pending shareholder approval on September 3, 2020, MICT special meeting of stockholders, MICT expects to receive the balance of the US$15 million that remains to be funded through convertible promissory notes, convertible into shares of MICT common stock upon stockholder approval at a conversion price of $1.10 per share.

[Call Starts Abruptly] 2020 results. Management will provide an overview of the results. Importantly	there is a slide presentation which management will use during their overview.

I will now take a brief moment to read the Safe Harbor statement. During the course of this call	management will make expressed and implied forward-looking statements within the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other U.S. Federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements include - but are not limited to - those statements regarding the belief that the merger with GFH and the recent investment in Micronet will create synergies and advantages for both companies - our expectations regarding the global logistics and transportation telematics industry growth and the belief that a majority stake in Micronet will leverage our global platform to grow the telematics business as well as fintech.
Such forward-looking statements and their implications involve known and unknown risks	uncertainties - and other factors that may cause actual results or performance to differ materially from those projected. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are subject to other risks and uncertainties - including those discussed in the Risk Factors section and elsewhere in the company's annual report and Form 10-K for the year ended December 31 - 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere in subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
On the call this morning, we have Darren Mercer, Chief Executive Officer and Board Member of MICT	and Moran Amran, Controller of MICT.
