News: SPZ Smart Parking Says Acquired 100% Ne Parking Limited, page-9

You couldn't include less detail in an announcement if you tried? What size car parks, number of spaces , space turnover , length of contracts,, Most company contracts have a change of ownership clause that allows contracted parties to exit contracts etc.

What liabilities come with this firm in terms of staff, leases and ongoing contracts etc. What was turnover of NE Parking and what was its profitability etc Look up companies house. Thier website says they already use ANPR but may refer to car park managementa nd may have been a SPZ client. SPZ not stupid if they buy up intermediatary management comanies with no scale and take extra margins and get effeciency.

At that price I guess you can guess the answers and be interesting to see teh SPZ team in acttion and if they have the skills to quickly intergrate and turn these sites around. SPZ prior attempts i regards to having supervised parking had fraud etc IMO.

Not sure SPZ ability to quickly scale up and convert sites nor to supervise staff etc. I hope they announce plans and progress as otherwise it will be poot luck unless you are local or a insider as to progress and possible outcomes

ASX needs to enforce more information to shareholders IMO. .
