Stack Capital Invests $7 Million USD Into Omio
June 21 2022 - 7:45AM
Stack Capital Group Inc. (“Stack Capital”) (TSX: STCK and STCK.WT)
is pleased to announce that it has invested $7 million USD into
preferred shares of Omio, Inc. (“Omio” or the “Company”), a leading
multi-modal travel platform that allows consumers in Europe, the
United States, and Canada to easily book trains, buses, ferries,
and flights – saving them both time and money. Stack Capital’s
investment was part of the recently announced financing and was
completed alongside fellow investors including Goldman Sachs,
Lazard Asset Management, New Enterprise Associates (NEA), and
Temasek Holdings, amongst others.
Omio has successfully built a travel platform
that focuses on the underserved and highly fragmented ground and
water transportation markets. Currently issuing travel tickets
across 37 countries, in 21 different languages, and 26 different
currencies, for 1000+ transportation providers, Omio has invested a
considerable amount of time, energy and resources to build its
innovative platform. Developing partnerships with a significant
number of travel operators, gaining access to their inventories,
and integrating into the Omio platform has been a challenging
endeavor. Today, however, Omio is the beneficiary of that process,
which now serves as a significant moat protecting its business from
the competition.
“Targeting the ground and water transportation
segments of travel differentiates Omio from virtually all of its
peers,” said Jeff Parks, CEO of Stack Capital. “As global travel
continues to accelerate post-pandemic, Omio is rebounding faster
than several of the largest travel platforms in the world. We’re
very excited about the future outlook for Omio given its ability to
grow organically, expand globally through acquisition, in addition
to leveraging its API by making it available to third parties.”
