Acquisition of Flirt.com
Easydate plc is pleased to announce that it has acquired the
Flirt.com domain from US company Belamo Corp ('Belamo') for USD
1.25million (GBP0.8million) cash, and at the same time has been
granted a perpetual royalty free license to several Flirt
trademarks by Belamo.
Flirt.com is a fun dating site that has been operated by
Easydate under a white label agreement from Belamo since August
2010 and has grown from nil revenue in August 2010 to a revenue of
GBP250,000 per month in November 2010.
Commenting on the acquisition, Bill Dobbie, Easydate's CEO,
said:
"Flirt.com has performed exceptionally well since we started
operating the site in the summer. Given this strong performance
over a fairly short time period, we felt that acquiring total
ownership of the domain was an important step that would contribute
towards Easydate's continued growth. This acquisition secures
ownership of a strong domain and dating site which sits alongside
Cupid.com and Benaughty.com as one of our fastest growing dating
sites."
