Q: Can you give our readers a deeper look at NetNut Ltd. and the value it adds to Alarum’s technology and platform moving forward?
Mr. Shachar Daniel, CEO
A: We are really excited about NetNut's accomplishments to date, including generating revenue growth quarter after quarter and becoming cash flow positive. NetNut is well positioned as a world leading brand in the field of data access. It offers a global web data collection cloud service, based on our proprietary traffic optimization and routing technology and network. During 2022, we doubled our network's infrastructure, which is now able to support and process billions in client requests. The scaleup in our capabilities is a result of the onboarding of several strategic customers, as well as the expansion of NetNut's network by partnering with tens of Internet Service Providers.
InvestorIdeas
Q: We talked about NetNut Ltd, Can you talk to us about the second side of your business, the consumer business?
Mr. Shachar Daniel, CEO
A: Both activities are link by providing customers with advance internet access solutions. While NetNut targets the enterprise world, CyberKick approaches the consumer market and offers internet access privacy and cybersecurity solutions. Our consumer-side solutions are designed to allow users to take charge of their online privacy with a powerful, secured and encrypted connection. These solutions are installed on the consumers’ computers or mobile phones and are available via various browser and mobile applications stores.
CyberKick’s business model is very attractive. Investing in acquiring new users allows us to build revenue-generating assets, which are expected to yield future revenue streams. Thanks to this unique model we have successfully secured funding from a strategic investor that chose to invest directly in our customer acquisition program, as well as a credit line for working capital from a leading Israeli commercial bank to support this operation.
InvestorIdeas
Q: In closing is there anything else you would like to share with our readers about the vision for the Company?
Mr. Shachar Daniel, CEO
A: Market conditions in the past year were challenging and very volatile, and Alarum's market position suffered as a result. Recent suspicion in the market, regarding the allegation made by several small-cap companies about illegal trading in their shares, are consistent with our own suspicions that performance of our stock is indeed suffering from abusive short selling This creates an artificial impact on trading of shares, which is completely unrelated to the company’s actual performance and achievements and as a result, damages shareholders. We believe that by taking the right decisions for our business, our future plans and execution will be better reflected, for the benefit of the company and our shareholders.
