Published

on

LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 12, 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 issued 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.

For information about the 2022 Annual Meeting please visit https://www.logicmark.com

The full text of the letter follows.

July 12, 2022

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

The Board of Directors and I urge shareholders to vote “For” all proposals contained in the Annual Meeting Proxy as each proposal is vital for LogicMark’s future success.

When I joined LogicMark I set out to redirect and invigorate the Company and address the problems of the past head on. In doing so, we have strengthened our financial condition, implemented strong corporate controls, expanded our intellectual property portfolio, and added highly specialized talent who will serve with us as the change agents carrying forward LogicMark as a leader in the new care economy.

We are proud of our accomplishments to date as we work hard to execute our strategy to increase our product and service offerings, expand into new markets and diversify revenue generation to drive steady revenue growth and increase our margins. In September of last year, we raised $12.5 million which was used to pay down our term loan and solidify our balance sheet. We are now debt free. Our cash resources provide the necessary funding to enable us to invest in new product initiatives and enter new markets. Most recently, we have increased revenue year-on-year in Q1 2022, and we intend to keep the momentum going in Q2.

With a strong balance sheet and an ambitious strategy, we have invested in diverse and experienced talent to help us execute our objectives. In February of this year, Mark Archer and Rafael Saavedra joined the firm as our permanent Chief Financial Officer and VP of Engineering, respectively. Mr. Archer brings over 40 years of financial and operational experience, including assignments in technology and consumer products companies. Mr. Saavedra brings over 20 years of experience in building and leading globally distributed engineering teams. Their additions to the LogicMark team have been invaluable, enabling us to create new innovative solutions while remaining financially disciplined and focused.

We have also strengthened our board of directors, adding talented individuals with significant and relevant experience to the Company. In the past four months, we have added three new accomplished board members to help LogicMark execute its long-term goals and provide strategic direction for the Company.

In February, Sherice Torres was appointed to the board bringing her nearly 30 years of experience in marketing, brand management, strategic planning and change management for companies such as Google and Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook). In March, John Pettitt was appointed to the board bringing almost 40 years of experience in e-commerce and internet connection. During his career, Mr. Pettitt, as Chief Technology Officer, founded four successful startup companies, two of which successfully IPO’d and two sold to market leaders, VISA and Google. In May, Barbara Gutierrez was appointed to the board and is currently chairman of the audit committee. Ms. Gutierrez is a seasoned financial executive with over 30 years of experience in executive and financial leadership roles with high growth, entrepreneurial companies in various industries, including healthcare and technology. Our new board members add a significant amount of expertise and talent that will be invaluable as we continue to execute our strategy.

Since I joined LogicMark, we have also strengthened our intellectual property portfolio with the filing of five provisional patents critical to remote monitoring, artificial intelligence and machine learning for pattern recognition, fall detection and other compelling capabilities intended to drive high value in our R&D and product development efforts. Some of these capabilities have already been integrated into our exciting new products and more are on the way.

Moreover, I was proud to have been awarded the Gold Stevie Award in May of this year for Maverick of the Year – Consumer Products, recognizing our dedication and hard work to position LogicMark as a leading innovator in consumer products for senior care. Stevie judges for the category, noted how much we have accomplished at LogicMark in such a short time. One commented, “As a CEO and a woman of color leading a technology company Chia-Lin Simmons was able to quickly take over the leadership and turn around the company with additional investors, [continuing] her work in the field of AI/ML by filing two new provisional patents.” Another called Simmons a “pioneer in identifying the need for adult care and using the technology to enable the vision.”

While we have made significant progress over the past year in improving the overall business and focusing on the initiatives that are aimed at driving shareholder value creation, there is still a lot of work to do. With the ongoing support of our loyal shareholders, we are confident of a bright future for LogicMark. By voting “For” the proposals in the Annual Meeting proxy, we will be able to continue our progress, building on our recent success in accomplishing our ambitious goals and objectives.

Vote “For” for Proposal No. 1: The members of the Board of Directors each has the expertise and experience the company believes necessary to support the company’s continued transformation into a technology company focused on building solutions for the new care economy. Over the last year, the Company has added three new Board members who bring experience with technology, strategic marketing, rapid growth, and expertise in the care economy.

Vote “For” Proposal No. 2: Management considers the selection of BPM LLP to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. After evaluating six potential audit firms, the Company believes that BPM is the best choice for the Company, both from a service and cost level.

Vote “For” for Proposal No 3: The Company believes that the 2022 Plan will allow it to continue to attract able directors, employees, consultants, and independent contractors and enable them to acquire and maintain Common Stock ownership in the Company. Concurrent with the adoption of this new Plan, the Company’s two existing stock incentive plan will be terminated and the potential dilution to shareholders will be reduced as a result.

Vote “For” Proposal No. 4: The Company expects that it’s re-incorporation from Delaware to Nevada will measurably reduce its operating costs and will also give it a greater measure of flexibility and simplicity in corporate governance than is available under Delaware law.

If you have any questions or need assistance with your vote, please call our proxy solicitor, Laurel Hill Advisory Group, at 888-742-1305.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I wish to thank our shareholders for your continued support and look forward to making 2022 and beyond a highly transformative and rewarding period for LogicMark.

Sincerely,
Chia-Lin Simmons

RepTrak Announces 2024 Global RepTrak® 100 Report

Published

reptrak-announces-2024-global-reptrak-100-report

BOSTON, April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The RepTrak™ Company, the world’s leading reputation data and insights company, released its annual Global RepTrak 100 report. Utilizing its advanced reputation monitoring software, RepTrak gathered data from more than 243,000 survey responses across 14 major economies to rank the world’s 100 most reputable companies. They share that ranking alongside a full analysis of global corporate reputation trends and corresponding public sentiment in the 2024 report.

After two years of consecutive Reputation Score declines, this year’s Score is back up with an increase from 73.2 in 2023 to 73.8 in 2024. It’s a small increase after 2023’s full one-point drop. However, it’s an encouraging sign that companies have begun to recover from reputation falls driven by many challenges: macroeconomic issues, workplace difficulties, product problems, and corporate responsibility skepticism.
“This year’s report underscores a pivotal shift in the corporate landscape, spotlighting the remarkable adaptability and dedication of the Top 100 companies in responding to the dynamic needs of stakeholders,” states RepTrak CEO Mark Sonders. “The companies featured in our report are not just riding the wave of change; they are the ones steering it, proving that the best approach to business is one that embraces evolution and champions progress.”
RepTrak’s report explores how people thought, felt, and acted toward companies over the past year. Findings include notable increases in Conduct and Citizenship efforts, stakeholders’ rising willingness to invest, culturally resonant brand communications, and ESG Scores that soared despite skepticism around the acronym.

group-ib-takes-part-in-a-global-operation-to-cripple-canadian-phishing-as-a-service-provider-labhost

SINGAPORE, April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Group-IB, a leading cybersecurity company aimed at investigating, preventing, and fight digital crime announced today that it participated in a coordinated global takedown operation against prominent Canadian Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) provider LabHost, which has led to the arrest of 37 suspects across the United Kingdom and around the world by law enforcement agencies. As part of the operation, Group-IB also conducted an extensive analysis of LabHost’s criminal history and infrastructure, including insights into LabHost’s administrative platform and the services it provides to its purported user base which exceeds 2,000 subscribers worldwide, who illegally obtained around 480,000 card numbers, 64,000 pin numbers, and over 1 million passwords from victims used for websites and other online services, according to law enforcement agencies.

“By leveraging our Threat Intelligence and Digital Risk Protection, we are able to identify and monitor phishing attacks and websites like those deployed by LabHost and its subscribers around the world, enabling us to actively alert and protect our customers, and in turn, their customers as well,” said Dmitry Volkov, Chief Executive Officer of Group-IB. “Today’s takedown operation demonstrates the agility and responsiveness of our decentralized Digital Crime Resistance Centers, and how quickly we can provide immediate and local assistance wherever our customers may be.”
First uncovered in late 2021, LabHost emerged as a fully automated Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) platform, streamlining the creation of phishing websites meticulously mirroring the interface and functionality of prominent banking, postal, and financial entities, aimed at intercepting, seizing, and profiting from users’ personal, credit card, and online banking credentials. Users are prompted to select from various “membership plans,” tailored to target businesses and individuals in either the United States and Canada, or globally, akin to mobile subscription models. These plans encompass “standard,” “premium,” and “world membership” tiers, priced between US$179 and US$300 monthly, with options for monthly, quarterly, or annual billing cycles.

Over the next few years, Malaysia is poised to witness significant growth in data center investments, driven by the influx of operators like AirTrunk, Equinix, Princeton Digital Group, and other leading companies. Key hubs like Cyberjaya, Kuala Lumpur, and Johor Bahru are expected to see heightened activity, hosting most of the country’s data centers.
The wholesale colocation sector is projected to experience a revenue surge fueled by major cloud players like Microsoft, Google, and AWS. These companies have unveiled plans to establish dedicated cloud regions within Malaysia, with expected timelines for deployment within the next one to two years. This trend underscores Malaysia’s growing importance as a regional hub for data infrastructure and cloud services.
Malaysia is among the top expensive markets globally for developing data centers. Malaysia’s data center construction cost in 2023 stood at about $8.5-$10 million per MW, making it the costliest market in the APAC region after Singapore and Jakarta.
