The publicly traded parent company of Irvine, CA-based New Motion Inc. MPLC (OTCBB:MPNC) has raised $10 million in a private placement, bringing the total investment in the two-year-old company to $20 million. The latest investment will allow New Motion to “continue to grow organically and participate in the rapidly consolidating mobile entertainment marketplace.” MPLC will also conduct a 300 for 1 reverse stock split to go into effect in 30-60 days, raising the individual share price from a couple of cents to several dollars…depending on the stock price when it occurs.
New Motion raised $6.5 million in a private placement when it went public via a reverse merger with MPLC back in February, and in January New Motion bought messaging assets from Mobliss. The company operates through its brands, including MobileSidewalk, RingtoneChannel, Bid4Prizes and GatorArcade.
