A2Z Cust2Mate Completes Acquisition of In-Store Retail Media Business Hedia
| ● | Strategic acquisition adds an established retail media business with approximately $20 million in annual revenues, advertiser relationships and campaign execution capabilities to Cust2Mate |
TORONTO, ON — October 6, 2026 — A2Z Cust2Mate Solutions Corp. (NASDAQ: AZ), (“A2Z” or “A2Z Cust2Mate” or the “Company”) a global leader in smart retail technology, today announced that it has completed the acquisition of Hedia, a leading Israeli retail media company.
Hedia is an established, profitable and cash-generating retail media business, with FY25 audited revenue of approximately $20 million. Founded in 1988, Hedia provides end-to-end in-store retail media capabilities, combining an established advertiser sales organization with campaign planning and execution, shopper marketing, digital in-store media (digital signage and Electronic Shelf Labels (ESL)), physical retail activations, production and nationwide implementation. Hedia has longstanding relationships with leading Israeli retailers, as well as major international consumer brands, including Unilever, Kimberly-Clark, Procter & Gamble, Nike and Henkel.
The acquisition is a logical expansion for A2Z’s retail media business, combining Cust2Mate’s smart cart technology, digital in-store retail media inventory, shopper journey data, retailer relationships and measurement capabilities with Hedia’s advertiser relationships, sales organization and campaign execution capabilities. The combined business is designed to provide an integrated retail media platform for planning, selling, executing and measuring in-store campaigns.
The combined business is intended to:
| ● | accelerate the development of A2Z’s retail media solution; | |
| ● | expand A2Z’s retail media sales and campaign execution capabilities; | |
| ● | monetize A2Z’s retail media inventory through Hedia’s network of leading global advertisers; and | |
| ● | create new retail media offerings across smart carts, digital screens, ESLs and in-store activations. |
“The acquisition of Hedia is a major advancement in the development of our retail media business,” said Gadi Graus, CEO of A2Z Cust2Mate Solutions Corp. “A2Z has built the technology, smart cart media inventory, shopper journey data and measurement infrastructure. Hedia adds the commercial engine, including advertiser relationships and robust sales capabilities. Together, we can offer a broad, integrated business solution.”
“We view Hedia as more than an addition to our Israeli business. The company provides an operating model that can support the commercialization of Cust2Mate’s retail media solution as we expand into additional markets. Hedia’s experience and established presence will help us hit the ground running as we build a business positioned to participate in the full retail media value chain.”
“After building Hedia and its retail media capabilities over many years, we see A2Z as the right partner for the next stage of the company’s development,” said Ofer Gal, founder and Chairman of Hedia. “The physical store is becoming increasingly digital, and A2Z Cust2Mate provides the technology and platform to connect that digital store with shoppers, brands and retailers. By combining Hedia’s retail media expertise and relationships with A2Z’s technology, platform, and growing smart cart footprint, we can expand what Hedia offers today.”
Following completion of the acquisition, Hedia will continue operating under its existing brand. Meron Gal will continue as CEO of Hedia and lead its Israeli retail media operations, while Ofer Gal will remain Hedia’s Chairman and will continue to be strategically involved in developing future retail media opportunities.
Transaction Terms
At closing, A2Z paid approximately $8.4 million in cash and issued 833,333 A2Z restricted common shares to the sellers, subject to a lockup period of up to 36 months. Approximately $7 million of the cash consideration is expected to be funded by a term loan from a commercial bank, bearing interest at prevailing market rates for comparable commercial bank financings.
The sellers are also eligible to receive up to approximately $6.7 million in additional performance-based cash consideration, subject to achievement of agreed targets for 2027 and 2028.
A2Z expects to service the bank financing primarily from cash flows generated by Hedia. Based on Hedia’s historical financial results, A2Z estimates that Hedia would have contributed annual Adjusted EBITDA(*) of approximately $2.3 million to A2Z.
The common shares issued to the sellers have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
