Management’s Discussion and Analysis and 12-Month Strategic Plan

In summary, OMHI performance in Q3 2023 and over the past nine months reflects a period of strong revenue growth and strategic investment in operations. While certain costs have risen, these are reflective of an ambitious growth strategy and the steps being taken to ensure the future success of OMHI business. 

OMHI has developed a strategic plan centered on expansion, both in terms of its product offerings and geographical reach based on these initiatives.

Product Expansion: OMHI has an intention for the coming year is to broaden its product range, drawing on regional data to identify key items that resonate with local market demands. Specifically, OMHI plans to introduce the AI-driven DoGetPro Omnichannel platform in the Caribbean in 2024. This novel innovation will utilize generative AI to empower local businesses of all sizes, enabling them to instantly establish robust e-commerce operations, regardless of their level of digital literacy.

Retail Expansion: Parallel to product expansion, OMHI also aims to grow its physical footprint. As demand for quality products and services continues to increase across the Caribbean, management sees an opportunity to meet these needs through the opening of new retail stores in strategic locations. The OMHI intention is to primarily grow through acquisitions, being actively pursuing in the Bahamas, St. Thomas, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands. In cases where acquisitions are not feasible, OMHI has a proven model for constructing new retail outlets.

Market Expansion: OMHI further plans to extend the reach of its DoGetGo app and DoGetPro e-commerce platform into new markets. This expansion will allow OMHI to bring its innovative solutions to a larger pool of businesses and customers, further demonstrating our commitment to empowering underserved regions. Currently, OMHI is actively exploring potential partnerships in the Bahamas, St. Thomas, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands.

Building Partnerships: Another critical facet of OMHI growth strategy is the formation of strategic collaborations with local businesses, community leaders, and influencers. Such partnerships can extend the reach and impact of the OMHI platform, thereby enabling the Company to deliver an enhanced Omnichannel retail experience to the Caribbean market.

Financing the Growth: To finance this ambitious growth, OMHI anticipates receiving a capital infusion of approximately $10M. The board of directors is finalizing a decision on potential options, including a 506 Reg C private placement, a TSX-V secondary listing, and an uplisting on NASDAQ. The aim in this regard is to secure the required funding with minimal dilution to existing shareholders, thereby protecting and enhancing shareholder value. 

Fourth OneMart Store Marks Milestone as OMHI Maintains Expansion Momentum and Outlines Future Plans

On April 17th OMHI announced the recent opening of its third OneMart store in the last 9 months. The latest addition is the company’s Lower Estate location, bringing the total to four of the popular OneMart stores now in operation. This milestone marks a significant step in the company’s ongoing expansion, with each new store varying in size and amenities to serve as blueprints for future growth across three distinctly different market sizes. OMHI is also focusing on increasing revenues for the upcoming fiscal year as it continues to expand its retail footprint in the high consumer density Caribbean region.

OMHI is actively exploring the possibility of expanding its presence in other Caribbean islands and is currently analyzing acquisition targets to accelerate growth. As part of its strategic plan, OMHI is researching the implementation of three different sized Micro Fulfilment Centers (MFCs), tailored to match the size of its three previous stores. Some of these MFCs may function as Dark Stores, focusing exclusively on online orders, which enables faster order processing and delivery times for customers. With the upcoming launch of the DoMart experience on the DoGetGo App, OMHI is poised to transform the retail landscape in the region, offering customers an innovative and seamless shopping experience.

The OMHI Lower Estate store marks the fourth OneMart location, joining the existing Purcell Estate, Baughers Bay, and East End supermarkets. This new addition highlights the company’s dedication to making shopping more convenient by strategically placing stores within people’s communities. At the core of the OMHI mission is a customer-centric agenda, focused on the specific needs and desires of our customers. We aim to give them the freedom and power to shop according to their preferences, ultimately enhancing their overall shopping experience.

In support of OMHI public equity, the board of OM Holdings International Inc. is actively exploring options for up-listing to the Nasdaq and/or a secondary listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange’s Venture Exchange (TSX-V) as part of its growth strategy. By pursuing these listings, OMHI aims to broaden its shareholder base and secure additional capital to fuel future expansion plans. This move demonstrates the OMHI commitment to creating value for its shareholders and enhancing its position as a leading omnichannel retail solution provider in the Caribbean region.
