Asset Acquisition into QReal Subsidiary to Propel Glimpse's Artificial Intelligence (AI), Facial Recognition and Virtual Try-On Capabilities, While Adding New Customers in the Beauty and Retail Verticals

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 1, 2022 / The Glimpse Group, Inc. ("Glimpse") (NASDAQ:VRAR) (FSE:9DR), a diversified Virtual Reality ("VR") and Augmented Reality ("AR") platform company providing enterprise-focused VR and AR software and services solutions, announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary company QReal, LLC has acquired the assets of PulpoAR ("PulpoAR"), a Turkey based AR technology e-commerce company providing virtual try-on solutions primarily for the Beauty and Retail markets.

PulpoAR (www.pulpoar.com) creates easy to deploy and scalable AR Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) plugins for e-commerce platforms and digital signage screens. It has approximately 40 software developers in Turkey, with state-of-the-art deep tech capabilities and has developed a library of over 10 thousand digital assets. PulpoAR was established in 2020 and is generating high margin revenues on a recurring SaaS base. Customers include Sephora (Turkey), Estee Lauder (Turkey), Watsons (Turkey), OBoticario (Brazil), Carter Beauty (Ireland) and Baccarose (India). As beauty brands struggle to increase their online conversion rate, ROI, and engagement with consumers, PulpoAR's omnichannel virtual try-on solutions - which are applicable to facial makeup, nail color, hair color, and AI skin analysis - allow consumers to try on desired products anywhere and anytime. This has been shown to increase average cart conversion rates while reducing cost from wasted testing resources to increase ROI.

The acquisition was structured as an asset purchase by Glimpse's wholly owned subsidiary company QReal (www.qreal.io) and no liabilities were assumed. The transaction is primarily equity based, comprised of an initial nominally dilutive issuance of common shares (at $7.00/share) and a one-time nominal cash payment. Potential future performance payments are subject to the achievement of significant annual revenue growth milestones through December 31, 2024, are almost completely equity based and priced at the time of issuance (with a floor issuance price of $7.00/share, aligned with all of Glimpse's acquisitions post its July 1, 2021 IPO).

PulpoAR's founders - Onur Candan, Founder & CEO, Rayan Godoi CRO and Bugrahan Bayat CTO, will continue to lead PulpoAR under QReal. Their operations will be integrated into those of Glimpse Turkey, bringing headcount in Glimpse Turkey to over 100 employees.

We believe that by joining, we can focus on our core, significantly accelerate our growth, expand our market presence and enhance our capabilities."

Mike Cadoux, General Manager of QReal said, "We expect to integrate PulpoAR's capabilities into ours and leverage our relationships with some of the world's leading social media companies to introduce these advanced and value-add technologies, which in turn could drive major growth. In addition, the synergies with Glimpse Turkey's operations and the Glimpse ecosystem at large are very compelling."

Lyron Bentovim, President & CEO of Glimpse concluded, "Over the past two years, PulpoAR has impressively established best-in-class virtual try-on technology and has demonstrated its SaaS solutions among leading brands in the Beauty segment, with over 20 customer relationships and several key strategic partnerships.
