DENVER, July 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intermap Technologies, a global leader in geospatial intelligence powered by proprietary 3D data and AI-driven analytics, today announced that it has entered into a definitive arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with PCI Geomatics Group Inc. (“PCI,” aka. “CATALYST”) and Grenadier Investments Limited (“Grenadier”), a major shareholder of PCI. Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, Intermap will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of PCI (the “PCI Shares”) not already owned by Intermap by way of an arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “Arrangement”). Intermap will use $11 million of cash to complete the transaction. A detailed description of the Arrangement Agreement will be contained in the Material Change Report that will be filed by Intermap on SEDAR+ and on EDGAR in accordance with applicable securities laws.

June McAlarey, President and CEO of PCI, will continue in her current role, and extend her duties as an Intermap Executive Vice President, responsible for the commercial business.

PCI is a leading provider of commercial geospatial image processing technologies, with more than 750 proprietary algorithms (across level 0-3 stages) delivered as cloud-native micro-services, supporting imagery from more than 500 satellites in-orbit, and embedded in thousands of workflows worldwide. Intermap has maintained a longstanding strategic and technology relationship with PCI, including an existing ownership position.

The Arrangement has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of both Intermap and PCI. Intermap has entered into voting support agreements with Grenadier and all of the directors and officers of PCI who hold PCI Shares, pursuant to which such shareholders have agreed to vote their PCI Shares in favor of the Arrangement.

A special meeting (the “PCI Meeting”) of the holders of PCI Shares (“PCI Shareholders”) will be held to vote on the Arrangement. Closing will occur thereafter upon satisfaction or waiver of all conditions, including required shareholder approval, court approval and customary closing conditions as set out in the Arrangement Agreement.

The acquisition integrates PCI’s industry-leading satellite and aerial image processing and micro-services with the world’s best commercially available digital elevation models. Customers can now benefit from automated, near real-time, AI-powered GEOINT analytics, that are mapping-grade at global-scale, from an integrated, secure, as-a-service or on-premises sensor-to-user platform.

Commercial downstream applications providing software and data as-a-service include high resolution wide area terrain and geoid mapping; insurance underwriting; vegetation management, subsidence and critical infrastructure monitoring; transportation, navigation, and logistics optimization. Defense and intelligence applications include solutions for advanced Positioning, Navigation and Timing; multi-domain situational awareness; automated object detection, feature extraction and tracking; and long-range beyond-line-of-sight remote navigation and targeting.

Together, the companies enable customers to transform raw, multi-domain Earth observation imagery into analysis-ready geospatial intelligence, with an integrated suite of sensor agnostic cloud-based applications, APIs, algorithms, micro-services and enterprise solutions. As satellite constellations and drones continue to proliferate and Earth observation data volumes increase exponentially, demand is shifting beyond image collection toward rapid automated processing, AI-powered analytics and the delivery of distributed decision-ready geospatial intelligence throughout the enterprise. The combined company offers a vertically integrated geospatial intelligence platform spanning data collection, image processing, orthorectification, mapping, feature extraction, foundation GEOINT, agentic AI and enterprise delivery. The solutions enable commercial, government and defense customers to consume data in formats, quantities and timelines that complement their existing workflows, reduce latency from sensor collection to actionable intelligence, while supporting interoperable multi-domain integration across land, air, sea and space.

Approximately 60% of pro forma revenue is expected to be generated from recurring commercial subscriptions and repeat contracted licenses, strengthening revenue visibility while increasing exposure to scalable, high-margin software and analytics services. The acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive to commercial revenue growth, EBITDA, earnings and cash flow.

“We are excited to welcome June McAlarey and her team of talented geospatial professionals to our team,” said Patrick A. Blott, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Intermap. “This acquisition represents a significant milestone in Intermap’s strategy to build the world’s leading platform for geospatial intelligence. As commercial satellite constellations continue to expand, the combination of proprietary 3D elevation data, advanced image processing, automated analytics and agentic AI creates an integrated platform positioned to capture long-term growth across commercial space, infrastructure, defense, intelligence, insurance, telecommunications and transportation markets. We are enabling faster production of analysis-ready imagery, enhanced edge processing, multi-sensor integration, GPS-resilient positioning applications and AI-powered decision support, delivered to the edge through scalable APIs, on-premises and subscription services. As demand shifts toward automated and autonomous geospatial intelligence and AI-powered decision support, Intermap is positioned to create lasting value for customers and shareholders.”

“This transaction extends our leadership in the space domain and optical image processing to allow our customers to process and analyze imagery from virtually any sensor, through an integrated engine and deliver near real-time AI-powered geospatial solutions at the edge, where they are needed to expand adoption,” added June McAlarey, President of PCI and EVP of Intermap. “Together, we reduce the time from sensor collection to produce actionable intelligence across land, air, sea and space for decision-makers, while expanding our own recurring revenue and strengthening our leadership across the Earth observation value chain.”
