Executive Summary

  • Sekur Private Data Ltd. reports positive feedback on its privacy communications platform in Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo and expects to close its first licence sales in 2025.
  • The company targets a minimum of 2,000 licences (500 premium government licences and 1,500 business licences) for 2026, representing roughly US$2.1 million in recurring annual revenue.
  • Sekur plans to issue 5,150,793 restricted shares at C$0.05 per share to arm’s‑length service providers, subject to regulatory and board approvals.

Key Details

  • Since the July 2025 announcement, Sekur’s head of Central and Southern Africa has been actively introducing the platform to corporate and government customers in Angola and the DRC.
  • Expected timeline: first licences sold in 2025; expansion of sales throughout 2026 and beyond.
  • Sales target for 2026: ≥ 2,000 licences (≥ 500 premium government licences + ≥ 1,500 business licences) → US$2.1 M recurring yearly income.
  • Market context: cyber‑attacks in Africa—particularly Business Email Compromise—have risen sharply over the past six months, driving demand for secure communications solutions.
