MelodyVR signs agreement with Ibiza Rocks Group

EVR Holdings plc (AIM:EVRH), the leading creator of virtual reality music content and operator of the MelodyVR platform, is pleased to announce that Ibiza Rocks Group ("IRG"), which is a leading event promoter and hotel operator, has entered into a sponsorship and immersive content production agreement.

IRG is the first client to participate in a new commercial initiative for MelodyVR, with a key focus on revenue generation via branded immersive content and strategic partnerships. This new initiative will leverage the company's market-leading skillset via the creation and distribution of virtual reality and immersive content across a broad spectrum of influential brands and sponsorship partners.

Under this agreement, MelodyVR will create a number of branded pieces of content for distribution across the MelodyVR platform and will produce a number of physical and immersive content installations, which will be utilised across IRG properties throughout Europe. MelodyVR will also promote IRG to its own global user-base as well as across MelodyVR social and digital channels. In tandem, IRG will actively promote and endorse the MelodyVR platform as part of its own promotional campaigns. Under the terms of the agreement, IRG has received an entitlement to subscribe for 6,000,000 new ordinary shares in EVR over the course of the next five years at an exercise price of 5.5 pence per share.

This material contract will make a contribution to 2018 revenues and, following a positive start to H2, the Directors are pleased to report that the Company is on-track to meet the Board's revenue expectations for the current financial year.

 

Anthony Matchett, Executive Chairman of EVR Holdings, said: "The success of this new commercial initiative represents an exciting endorsement of the technical and marketing expertise inherent within our organisation. In addition to our core strategy of the monetisation and distribution of VR content to music fans globally via the MelodyVR platform, strategic partnerships, sponsorship agreements and branded content opportunities have the potential to increase revenue generation and drive MelodyVR brand awareness. This agreement with IRG represents an exciting opportunity to cross-promote two successful music brands and is a testament to the continued growth of virtual reality and the progress of our own MelodyVR platform since launch.

We believe that MelodyVR's original content and experiences will represent a key tool of choice for brands and agencies looking to form a deeper connection with an engaged and technology-focused audience, comprised of music fans from all over the world. I look forward to announcing more commercial partners in due course, as well as to providing an update as to our upcoming live-events."
