Deal rationale and strategic fit
Acquisition of Viral Loops, a profitable B2B referral marketing platform, launches a new B2B vertical and complements existing D2C brands, enhancing organic customer acquisition and diversifying away from reliance on major digital ad platforms.
Viral Loops' technology will be leveraged across D2C verticals to reduce customer acquisition costs, improve retention, and enhance word-of-mouth campaigns.
The deal aligns with a disciplined capital allocation strategy focused on cash flow-generating technology businesses and strengthens both financial and operational aspects of the portfolio.
The acquisition was opportunistic, driven by the seller's need to pay down debt, allowing for a favorable purchase price.
Financial terms and conditions
Purchase price was CA$2.3M (CA$2.1M upfront, CA$200K deferred for one year), representing ~2.9x 2025 Adjusted EBITDA.
Viral Loops achieved CA$1.3M in revenue and CA$800,000 in Adjusted EBITDA (60%+ margin) in 2025 unaudited statements.
The deal was funded through an upsized private placement, resulting in about 15% dilution, and included assumption of deferred revenue liability of approximately US$82K.
Synergies and expected cost savings
Viral Loops' asset-light, high-margin, recurring revenue model is expected to drive down customer acquisition costs, improve consolidated margin profile, and enhance cash flow conversion.
Gross margin enhancement: Viral Loops at 86% vs. portfolio average of 36%.
Integration is expected to reduce seasonality, stabilize earnings, and improve EBITDA conversion to cash flow.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
