Nearmap U.S. Success Prompts Company to Raise $15 Million in Capital to Fund Future Growth


Over the past 12 months, market-leading location content provider Nearmap (ASX: NEA) has continued to add new customers and annual contract value at a rapid pace. On the back of strong results in both the U.S. and Australia, the company recently completed a capital raise of about $15 million (AU$20 million) to fuel sales and marketing for Nearmap's U.S. division while also accelerating the current deployment of location content using HyperCamera2 for 3D data.

"As U.S. operations continue to expand, transaction volumes and annual contract value have shown strong quarter over quarter growth in each of our core market segments," said Patrick Quigley, senior vice president and general manager for Nearmap, North America. "Now is the time to accelerate our growth in the U.S. business-with more sales and marketing, additional camera systems and flight operations. Our imagery transforms the way organizations operate, and this capital raise will expand ourability to better serve markets and customers in the U.S."



Nearmap's business in the U.S. is balanced across civil engineering, construction, energy, government and other commercial sectors such as insurance, utilities and telecommunications. All of these markets are showing strong growth.
