NextTrip Engages MZ Group to Lead Strategic Investor Relations and Shareholder Communications Program

SUNRISE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / April 2, 2024 / NextTrip, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTRP) ("NextTrip", "we," "our," or the "Company"), a travel technology company, has engaged international investor relations specialists MZ Group (MZ) to lead a comprehensive strategic investor relations and financial communications program across all key markets.

MZ Group will work closely with NextTrip management to develop and implement a comprehensive capital markets strategy designed to increase the Company's visibility throughout the investment community. The campaign will highlight how NextTrip is driving the evolution of the travel industry by merging advanced digital solutions with personalized travel services. The Company is pioneering a fully integrated, personalized experience with the launch of an innovative travel technology platform that is positioning NextTrip to deliver revenue growth, diversification and expanding margins.

MZ has developed a distinguished reputation as a premier resource for institutional investors, brokers, analysts, and private investors and maintains offices worldwide. Chris Tyson, Executive Vice President at MZ North America, along with Directors Larry Holub and Brooks Hamilton, will advise NextTrip 's investor relations team in all facets of investor relations including, but not limited to, the coordination of roadshows and investment conferences across key cities and building brand awareness with financial and social media outlets.

Chris Tyson commented: "We continue to see positive momentum for the travel industry, with historic high records of travelers expected to book hotels, flights and curated vacations in 2024. The expanding global travel market is projected to grow significantly, driven by increasing disposable incomes and the desire for experiences over products. The World Travel & Tourism Council projects that by 2033, travel is set to become a $15.5 trillion industry-accounting for more than 11.6% of the global economy. This represents a 50% increase over its $10 trillion value in 2019, when travel represented 10.4% of the world's gross domestic product. Additionally, there is a growing demand for digital solutions in travel planning and management, representing a substantial market opportunity for NextTrip. Taken together, this creates an exciting opportunity, and we look forward to sharing NextTrip with our network of institutional, family offices and retail investors."

Larry Holub added: "NextTrip is addressing today's travel challenges with an innovative fully integrated travel booking platform. The Company acquired the assets of Bookit.com, a fully integrated booking engine and platform with more than $40 million invested and a large travel database of six million customers that realized over $400 million in pre-pandemic revenue. This foundational technology powers consumer direct, travel agent, groups, alternative lodging and business travel. NextTrip has established partnerships with more than 3 million lodging, air and tour product suppliers and over 2,100 destinations in 200+ countries worldwide. A dedicated concierge team is focused on building lifetime customers through personalized planning and end-to-end traveler assistance. AI is being developed to seamlessly integrate into the customer service experience, bringing tailored engagement while controlling costs. A robust booking engine with merchandising capabilities will drive increased conversions and higher per revenue transactions. The platform allows for white-label offerings and embeddable booking widgets, establishing an opportunity for product expansion and revenue from technology licensing."

"NextTrip offers innovative technology and interactive media solutions that deliver an immersive experience for every traveler," said Bill Kerby, Chief Executive Officer of NextTrip. "We are now just weeks away from the full re-activation and roll-out of our travel booking platform, and the ramp up of marketing to our database of over six million customers. Looking ahead, we are also focused on the launch of an end-to-end content ecosystem that uses AI assisted travel planning while capturing advertising, building brand awareness, rewarding loyalty and driving bookings. This mix of owned and operated channels includes our own Travel Magazine platform housing a unique FAST TV (Free Ad-supported Streaming TV) model - Compass.TV. The environment is designed to translate content into commerce and expected to be supported by some of the top creators in the travel world. We look forward to working with Chris and the entire team at MZ Group to communicate the launch and announcing some of our business milestones in the weeks and months ahead," concluded Kerby.
