The statement outlines the completion of the merger between Tingo Mobile PLC, a wholly owned Tingo subsidiary, with MICT Inc., a NASDAQ-traded financial technology company; the merger should be complete by the end of this month. Once the merger is finalized, MICT will issue Tingo shares of its common stock equal to 19.9% of MICT’s outstanding shares along with Series A and Series B convertible preferred stock.
