Hostech Acquires 5Star and OfficeLink

November 30th, 2009

Hostech  Limited  (HTC)  advises  that  it  has  reached  agreement  to purchase the assets of 5Star and OfficeLink+. Final contracts are currently being prepared by the parties. The  addition  of  the  5Star  and  OfficeLink+  customer  bases  and  accompanying  annuity revenue  streams  add  an  exciting   dimension  to  the  business  and  will  enable  HTC  to  offer  its customers a broader range of communications services.

Carlos Perez comes with an impressive track record in telecommunications having founded T3 Communications in January 2002 and then selling the company to Pacific Internet (Australia), in 2005.  Carlos  has  been  successfully  involved  in  eight  telecommunication  start  up  operations  in eight different countries. He has also held senior finance roles at other Australian publicly listed companies. Frank Bradicich is equally well credentialed as a long established sales professional in the industry. 5Star was formed in 2007 and quickly reached break even in late 2008.

Carlos  Perez  comments  that  “Hostech  represents  an  exciting  opportunity  to  deliver  a  greater array of communication products to SMEs through a single company while delivering excellence in customer service.  The combination of a customer focused team and the Board’s commitment to cash accretive acquisitions will deliver sustainable value to shareholders.”
