"Trading as WLTR represents the final stage of our corporate pivot to Usewalter and better aligns our presence in the capital markets with our core business as a SaaS-based smart building technology solution," said Peter Mazoff, President and CEO. "With continued execution of our aggressive growth strategy to rapidly increase doors, expand geographically and enhance revenue, we look forward to usewalter being increasingly recognized as the app that no one can live without to manage their home and workplace."
The Company purchased Walter Innovations Inc. ("Walter") in July 2020 in order to quickly establish a meaningful presence in the fast-growing multi-residential real estate sector. Since integrating Walter into the business, the Company has significantly increased its presence in this market through the additions of well-known Montreal-area landmarks and projects such as: Habitat 67, Sentinel Gestion Immobilière, La Tour des Canadiens Phase 2, Le Solano Phase 4 and Le Laurent Clark Phase 2.
Over the past month, Usewalter has also secured two significant agreements that further demonstrate the Company's ability to leverage existing relationships and execute a successful client acquisition strategy. In early November, Usewalter executed an agreement with Magex Technologies ("Magex"), which is expected to significantly expand the Company's reach with the inclusion of Magex's approximately 100,000 doors, primarily located in the province of Quebec. In mid-October, Usewalter announced a partnership with Condo Manager, a leader in integrated accounting, management and communication software for multi‐residential buildings, whereby the Company unveiled its innovative usewalter app to Condo Manager's approximately 225,000 units in Ontario and Western Canada.
