Shares in the company surged after the announcement to 209 GBX per share, representing a 10% rise after closing yesterday’s trading session at 190 GBX. Loopup’s share price has seen a significant rise so far this year, up 192.31%, being helped by a positive first-half 2020 trading report that saw its EBITDA increase 249% YoY.
In Loopup’s announcement, co-CEO’s, Steve Flavell and Michael Hughes said: “2020 is proving a very successful year for our premium remote meetings solution but this is no time to stand still. With change comes opportunity, and there is clear enterprise demand – including a material portion of our professional services customer base – to extend Microsoft Teams into business telephony. We believe we’re fantastically placed to win market share in this significant landscape-changing opportunity.
We’re very excited to announce this major extension to LoopUp – now a premium cloud solution for business-critical external communications, encompassing cloud voice for Microsoft Teams and premium remote meetings.”
