TIGERLOGIC CORPORATION ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF SALE OF POSTANO BUSINESS

 

PORTLAND, OR. — April 1, 2016

TigerLogic Corporation (OTCQX: TIGR) today announced that on March 31, 2016 it closed the sale of its Postano business to Sprinklr, Inc., the world’s most complete enterprise social technology company.

 

Postano, a leading social visualization platform, enables brands to find, curate, and analyze the best social fan content and publish it as stunning visualizations across web, mobile, and live screen displays for industries such as sports, retail, and events. Postano’s technology is expected to enhance Sprinklr’s Command Center and other display capabilities, allowing brands to better interpret and share data across their organization, while also giving them greater creativity and scale in the execution of visual experiences online and offline.

 

As previously announced, TigerLogic is also pursuing the sale of its assets associated with its Omnis rapid application development software business, and intends to consummate such a sale as soon as possible. Although no definitive agreement has been reached, the Company remains in negotiations with an unaffiliated third party regarding the potential sale of the Omnis business and has engaged a financial advisor to assist it in identifying and engaging other potential purchasers. Once the sale of the Omnis business is complete, the Company plans to file a certificate of dissolution with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware, and to proceed to wind up its business and liquidate its assets to stockholders. No specific timeframe for the completion of these actions has been established, and the record date for any such distribution has not been determined.
