RISHON LEZION, Israel, April 01, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- B.O.S. Better Online Solutions Ltd. ("BOS" or the "Company") BOSC, a leading Israeli integrator of RFID and Mobile solutions and a global provider of Supply Chain solutions to enterprises, today issued the following important message to its shareholders:

Dear Shareholders,

The voting for the BOS' special meeting of shareholders will continue through the end of business on Tuesday, April 9, 2019.

Your vote AGAINST Resolution 1 and Resolution 2 is extremely important to block Pure Capital's demand for the removal of the Company's current board of directors and appointment of Pure Capital's nominees. All BOS shareholders at March 13, 2019, the record date, are eligible to participate in the voting.

Importantly, the leading independent proxy advisory firm, Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) has recommended* that the shareholders vote AGAINST the Pure Capital proposals.

According to the ISS report: "We note that the few paragraphs in its (Pure Capital's) position statement are far from case for change.  Based on lack of a detailed rationale, a vote AGAINST the dissident proposals is warranted."

ISS came to this conclusion following an independent review of the Pure Capital's position statement and BOS' public filling.

BOS believes that the Pure Capital's demands are unfounded also given the conclusive evidence of the achievements of BOS' management and its board of directors, including:

  • Effective Execution of a Growth Plan through Strategic Acquisitions:
    •  A definitive agreement to purchase the assets of Imdecol Ltd. was signed on March 20, 2019.
    •  An acquisition of iDnext Ltd. and Next-Line Ltd. was completed in 2016.
  • Revenue CAGR of 8.5% and Net Income CAGR of 44% during the past 3 years.
  • Reduction in Net Debt to $600,000 in 2018 from $14 million in 2009.
  • Improvement in Net Income to $1 million in 2018 as compared to a net loss of $9 million in 2009.

*Permission neither sought nor obtained from ISS.

BOS' board of directors recommends that you vote AGAINST the two resolutions on the agenda:
