Fort Technology Closes 50.1% Logia USA Acquisition, Secures $2M Credit Facility
FRTT sits 49% above its 52-week low of $0.72 on light trading volume (0.1× avg).
Summary
Fort Technology completed its acquisition of a 50.1% stake in Logia USA, issuing 132,603 shares valued at approximately $125,000. The deal includes a $2.0 million unsecured credit facility at 6% interest, advanced in tranches tied to operational and sales milestones. This follows the binding agreement announced on August 11 and the earlier LOI from June. The acquisition gives Fort entry into the U.S. data center fuel integrity market, with Logia USA's automated monitoring and filtration systems. An equity rebalancing mechanism could reduce Fort's ownership if Logia USA hits certain sales and profitability thresholds. The transaction is modest in size relative to Fort's market cap but strategically expands its U.S. footprint.
