LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LogicMark, Inc. (Nasdaq: LGMK) (the “Company” or “LogicMark”) (formerly Nxt-ID, Inc.), a provider of personal emergency response systems (PERS), health communications devices, and technology for the growing care economy, today shared the intended cost savings and shareholder benefits with its shareholders, who were encouraged to vote “for” all annual meeting proxy proposals in the following letter to LogicMark shareholders in connection with the Company’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2022 Annual Meeting”) to be held on August 25, 2022.
All votes are important, regardless of the number of shares owned. Shareholders as of the 2022 Annual Meeting record date, June 28, 2022, will be entitled to vote at the 2022 Annual Meeting. Shareholders are encouraged to read about the proposals in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 30, 2022. For assistance with voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitor, Laurel Hill Advisory Group, at 888-742-1305 or via email: LogicMark@laurelhill.com.
The full text of the letter follows.
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
With our annual meeting fast approaching on August 25th, I want to share with you why your vote “for” the proposals in the Annual Meeting Proxy will drive strong financial management, cost benefits and shareholder value for LogicMark and our shareholders. LogicMark has made significant strides in the past year and achieved incredible growth. Your crucial vote “For” the proposals will allow us to continue building towards LogicMark’s future success.
Voting “for” the proposals will allow us to continue our progress built upon recent successes, including intellectual property portfolio expansion. We see an opportunity for strong value creation emanating from our filing of five provisional patents critical to remote monitoring, artificial intelligence, and machine learning for pattern recognition, fall detection and other compelling capabilities. We believe they will help drive high value in our R&D and product development efforts, and some of these capabilities have already been integrated into our exciting new products, with more on the way.
I am proud to say that today’s LogicMark is debt free with stronger governance and operational controls. Our capital raise in September of last year yielded ample cash resources, which provide the necessary funding to enable us to invest in new product initiatives and enter new markets, while driving improved financial performance and cost efficiencies along the way. To those ends, we believe our newly announced direct-to-consumer sales channel, driven by our redesigned website and e-commerce platform, will broadly deliver our solutions to more people, including families and caregivers.
The proxy proposals are designed for additional cost savings:
- New audit firm, BPM, is not only the best choice for the Company, but will reduce overhead costs (Proposal 2); and
- Reincorporating the Company from Delaware to Nevada will measurably reduce operating costs (Proposal 4).
Additionally, the proxy proposals will:
- Solidify our Board of Directors whose expertise is necessary to support the company’s continued transformation (Proposal 1); and
- With the adoption of this new Plan, the Company’s two existing stock incentive plans will be terminated and the Company intends for potential dilution to shareholders to be reduced from 20% to 15%. (Proposal 3).
While we have made significant progress over the past year in strengthening our financial condition, implementing strong corporate controls, expanding our intellectual property portfolio and adding highly specialized talent, there is much still to be done to sufficiently position LogicMark as a leader in the new care economy. With the ongoing support of our loyal shareholders, we are confident of LogicMark’s bright future. By voting “For” the proposals in the Annual Meeting Proxy, we will be able to continue our progress and build on our recent success in accomplishing our ambitious goals and objectives.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I wish to thank our shareholders for your continued support in transforming LogicMark and look forward to 2022 and beyond as a highly transformative and rewarding period for LogicMark. If you need help voting, please call our proxy solicitor, Laurel Hill Advisory Group, at 888-742-1305.
Sincerely,
Chia-Lin Simmons
CEO of LogicMark
