The latest announcement is out from Emerge Commerce Ltd ( (TSE:ECOM) ).
Emerge Commerce Ltd. has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Viral Loops, a profitable B2B referral marketing platform that helps businesses run subscription-based referral campaigns to drive word-of-mouth, customer retention and lower acquisition costs. Viral Loops, which will retain its brand, team and global client base, generated about CA$1.3 million in 2025 revenue with roughly 86% gross margins and CA$800,000 in adjusted EBITDA, and operates an asset-light, high cash conversion model.
The cash purchase price of approximately CA$2.3 million, including deferred consideration, values Viral Loops at around 2.9 times its 2025 adjusted EBITDA and is expected to be immediately accretive to Emerge’s earnings and cash flow, boosting pro forma 2025 adjusted EBITDA by roughly 52% to CA$2.2 million. The deal, Emerge’s first under its new EMERGE B2B vertical, is intended to improve the group’s overall margin profile, reduce seasonality in its consumer-facing businesses, and create portfolio synergies by deploying Viral Loops’ referral technology across Emerge’s grocery and golf brands, while the company also announced a concurrent CA$1.8 million non-brokered private placement.
The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:ECOM) stock is a Hold with a C$0.13 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Emerge Commerce Ltd stock, see the TSE:ECOM Stock Forecast page.
