At the core of its extensive portfolio stands the revolutionary AnyTech365 IntelliGuard, an AI-powered comprehensive threat prevention and performance enhancement optimization software. AnyTech365's subscription-based solutions, delivered as Software as a Service ("SaaS"), extend their protective reach to all internet-connected devices, including PCs, laptops, tablets, smartphones, smart TVs, and a myriad of other Internet of Things ("IoT") devices.

In an era where cybersecurity takes center stage and the intricacies of IT devices and software pose growing challenges for consumers and small businesses, AnyTech365 is committed to safeguarding its customers' digital world and streamlining the user experience. AnyTech365 provides dependable and secure solutions and services while ensuring round-the-clock, 365-day access to certified experts proficient in Android, iOS, and Windows, and fluent in over twenty (20) languages.

AnyTech365 has received widespread acclaim, earning multiple accolades on local, national, and international stages. In 2019, AnyTech365 was ranked as the 27th fastest-growing company in Europe across all sectors, according to the Financial Times FT1000.

AnyTech365 intends to use the proceeds from the Transaction to increase its growth via accelerating its strategic partnerships with MediaMarkt, one of Europe's largest electronic retailers, the expansion of its direct and online marketing activities, further implementation of AI as well as software development and pursuing strategic acquisitions.

Embracing AI to Drive Growth: AnyTech365 tackles security, performance, and optimization challenges with a blend of its pioneering AI-driven IT security and monitoring software. One of the key benefits of AnyTech365's AI-driven approach is its ability to automate various processes, which leads to quicker response times and improved customer satisfaction. Through AI algorithms and machine learning technology, it can analyze vast amounts of data in real-time, enabling proactive detection and resolution of any potential IT security issues.

Additionally, AnyTech365's AI capabilities facilitate intelligent problem-solving and decision-making. The algorithms continuously learn and adapt based on user behavior and patterns, allowing for customized solutions tailored to the specific needs of each customer. This level personalization enhances the overall user experience and ensures that clients receive the most effective and efficient support.

Capitalizing on Favorable Market Tailwinds: The growing complexity of IoT technologies, alongside increased cybersecurity risk, has made it an opportune time for AnyTech365 to expand its legacy SaaS business. With the devices with which we interact every day becoming increasingly complex and connected and digital operations migrating to the cloud, small businesses and consumers are increasingly looking for high-quality, smart, simple and proactive IT security and support solutions. Furthermore, by utilizing its rapidly evolving AI technology, AnyTech365 is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the rising demand stemming from these trends. With a strong existing business-to-consumer presence and market resonance, AnyTech365 also has a tremendous opportunity to extend business-to-business applications serving small and medium enterprises across expanded end markets and geographies.

Expanding Strategic Partnerships: AnyTech365 is poised to scale its reach throughout Europe by expanding their strategic partnerships, such as with MediaMarkt, the leading Europe-based consumer electronic retailer with over one thousand (1,000) stores and an interactive ecommerce platform. AnyTech365's agreement with MediaMarkt will see the rollout of the AnyTech365 products and services being included as a purchase option in the MediaMarkt online checkout following the ecommerce sale of an IoT product or device as well as featuring across hardware insurance products such as Extended Warranty and IT Helpdesk, sold in the MediaMarkt physical stores and ecommerce platform. Additionally, AnyTech365 is also pre-installing AnyTech365 IntelliGuard software on MediaMarkt laptops prior to sale. The agreement also provisions AnyTech365 to position technical personnel at each of MediaMarkt's more than one hundred (100) stores in Spain to provide a "Shop in Shop" on-site technical expert experience. This unique agreement gives AnyTech365 the opportunity to offer its SaaS IT security services directly to the millions of MediaMarkt customers. Beyond Spain, the partnership is expected to roll out across additional EU territories where MediaMarkt operates.

Pursuing Complementary Acquisitions: The strong demand for IT security SaaS and the fragmented market presents a considerable opportunity for AnyTech365 to rapidly expand its service offerings and capabilities across end markets and geographies. With an industry leading compliance platform and highly scalable AI powered systems, AnyTech365 is positioned to achieve greater reach through consolidation in this nascent and fast-growing environment. With strong focus on implementing AI in all aspects of its business AnyTech365 also expect to be able to increase revenues and at the same time optimize cost and create efficiencies in performance and service level enhancements.
