Mottech Secures Recurring Revenue Agreements
MTI Wireless Edge Ltd., a market leader in the manufacture of flat panel antennas for fixed wireless broadband and a wireless irrigation solution provider, announces that its subsidiary, Mottech Water Solutions Ltd. ("Mottech"), has extended its three largest services agreements with key municipalities in Israel. These extensions represent overall revenues of approximately NIS 3.5m per annum securing approximately 35% of Mottech's recurring income. The extensions are for a period of 3 to 5 years, with certain of the extensions requiring a renewal process by the municipalities at their option every 12 months.
MTI acquired Mottech, a wireless irrigation solutions provider, in June 2015. Mottech has immediately made a positive profit contribution and renewing these contracts provides the MTI board with confidence that the acquisition will be earnings enhancing in 2015 and beyond.
MTI has now successfully moved the Mottech business into MTI's Rosh HaAyin headquarters in Israel. The combined management team are now focussing on Mottech's business plan and the expansion of opportunities for Mottech in the irrigation market, as well as applying Mottech's wireless control products to other industry sectors.
MTI also announces that it has recruited a new International Sales director for the Mottech business. Amir Givon previously worked for Mottech and has re-joined the business. He will lead the expansion of Mottech's business into international markets.
Dov Feiner, CEO of MTI commented: "The integration of the Mottech business continues to go smoothly and we expect for Mottech to deliver on our expectations for the current year. We continue to explore where we can extend their products in the irrigation market, and generally how we can move the MTI business further up the value chain to provide services and obtain recurring income streams".
