Nightfood Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: NGTF) Completes Major Step on Uplist Journey by Closing Strategic All-Stock Acquisition of CarryoutSupplies.com - Nightfood Holdings Inc. (“Nightfood”) is pleased to announce the closing of its strategic all-stock acquisition of SWC Group Inc., doing business as CarryoutSupplies.com (“CarryOut”). CarryOut is a leading wholesaler and distributor of custom takeout packaging for the foodservice industry, with traditional, biodegradable, and compostable options.

This acquisition is a significant step in Nightfood’s growth and Nasdaq-uplist strategy, which was initially announced in November 2023. In the last seven months, under the leadership of new Chief Executive Officer, Sonny Wang, Nightfood has successfully completed two all-stock acquisitions and brought in millions in revenue and assets.

Founded in 2004, CarryOut has served more than 7,000 food services accounts, specializing in providing packaging solutions such as ice cream cups, coffee cups, lids, and utensils to small and medium-sized foodservice businesses, including restaurants, cafes, ice cream parlors, tea houses, and yogurt shops. Despite facing significant challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, CarryOut rebounded in 2023 with $2 million in revenue and is projecting 20% growth in 2024.

Strategic Value and Synergies - The acquisition of CarryOut offers numerous strategic benefits to Nightfood, enhancing operational efficiencies, expanding its customer base, and bolstering its product offerings. This integration allows for:

  • Expanded Product Offerings: With CarryOut’s extensive packaging solutions now under the Nightfood umbrella, Nightfood can better serve existing customers and enter new markets by offering a comprehensive range of products across its subsidiaries.
  • Synergistic Growth Opportunities: By aligning CarryOut’s network of small and medium-sized foodservice operators with Nightfood’s offerings, Nightfood anticipates new opportunities for cross-promotion, including the introduction of Nightfood's healthy snacks and service robotics solutions to restaurants, cafes, and dessert shops.
  • Operational Efficiencies: This acquisition will streamline back-office operations across Nightfood’s subsidiaries, including the consolidation of accounting services, shared legal resources, interchangeable staffing, and a more unified management team. These synergies are expected to improve human and capital resource allocation, driving down overall costs.

Sonny Wang commented, “We are thrilled to announce the successful acquisition of CarryoutSupplies.com and excited for what we believe this acquisition will allow Nightfood to accomplish. This deal not only strengthens our position in the foodservice industry but also can drive immense value through operational efficiencies and the integration of complementary products and services across Nightfood’s subsidiaries. We look forward to working with the CarryOut team to exceed the heights it achieved pre-COVID, made possible by its recent growth.”   CONTINUED… Read this and more news for Nightfood Holdings at:   https://ir.nightfood.com/press-releases

Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ: KSCP) recently announced three new contracts for its Emergency Communication Devices (“ECDs”). Knightscope Authorized Partner (“KAP”), Colonial Electric - an electrical contractor serving the Northeast - sold 4 K1 Blue Light Towers to a customer in New Jersey, and universities in California and Texas - both existing clients - elected to expand their existing contracts to include other long-term ECD services provided by Knightscope.

Knightscope’s modern, blue light ECDs are the key to curing an overconfident dependence on cell phones. Many people may not have (or simply may not be carrying) a cell phone, the cell phone’s battery may be down, or there may be no signal in the area. Similarly, it is possible that visitors who find themselves in need of assistance may not be familiar with local geography and landmarks, thus being unable to give emergency responders an exact or accurate location over a cell phone.

Emergency communications play a vital role in ensuring a secure and enjoyable environment for everyone by providing an extra layer of protection with reliable, one-touch access to services such as police, fire and EMS. K1 ECDs are conveniently placed to provide a direct communication portal in times of danger, personal crisis, medical emergencies, to report suspicious behavior or activities, or for accidents.
