This acquisition marks another step in Veris' strategy to accelerate its higher-margin Consulting & Advisory services and expand its digital solutions portfolio.

The initial consideration for the acquisition of Mesh comprises $1.55 million in cash and the issuance of $0.83 million worth of Veris shares. Veris has also paid $0.5 million for the acquisition of the 50% interest in Mesh-Dash. Mesh is expected to be earnings accretive in the first year post-acquisition, generating approximately $6 million in high-margin annualised revenue. The acquisition also adds a talented 28-person team with strong cultural alignment, reinforcing Veris' client-oriented and innovation-led values. The Parsel platform is expected to deliver scalable, recurring revenue while offering efficiency gains for developers, planners, and government agencies.

Guidance

Mesh is expected to be accretive in the first-year post-acquisition, generating approximately $6 million in high-margin annualised revenue.
