DOYLESTOWN, Pa., Dec. 20, 2018

Smart Retail will be a substantial augmentation to Smith Micro's business and a logical addition to a product line that targets wireless carriers. Pursuant to the terms of the transaction, Smith Micro will acquire the assets of ISM Connect's Smart Retail product suite for a purchase price of approximately $9.8 million, consisting of $4 million payable in cash and $5.8 million payable through the issuance of Smith Micro common stock.
