DALLAS, TEXAS, Jan. 19, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Frontera Group, Inc. (OTC Pink: FRTG) (“Frontera” or the “Company”), a technology-focused strategic acquirer of revenue-generating companies and intellectual property (IP), announced today that it has signed a term sheet to purchase 24.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of McAllen, Texas-based Texas G & S Investments, Inc. d/b/a Texas Money Exchange ( TME)(www. texasgsinv.com) from a joint venture controlled by members of the Solis family of McAllen, Texas. The term sheet also provides an option for Frontera to take over the remaining 75.1% of TME over time.

TME is a Texas Department of Banking licensed and bonded non-depository financial institution engaged in money services business (MSB). TME is believed to be the largest foreign exchange and international payment specialist in the Texas Rio Grande Valley (RGV). In business for over 27 years, TME is an emerging Fintech and critical cog in the supply chain between the US and Mexico. On behalf of its clients, TME operates USD-MXN (Dollar/Pesos) exchange rates, USD-MXN business payments, payment of suppliers in Mexico, recipient of payments from Mexico and makes authorized shipping voucher payments. TME customers include importers and exporters of a wide range of products such as machinery, equipment, Tupperware, pickles, avocados, watermelon, lemons, limes, mangoes and other products Americans use and consume on a daily basis.

According to the Rice University Kinder Institute For Urban Research, the binational population gathered along the RGV includes an estimated 2.67 million people (1.29 million in the United States and 1.38 million in Mexico), surpassing the binational metropolitan area of ​​El Paso-Juarez in total population . This makes the RGV the second largest border urban area with Mexico (only San Diego-Tijuana is larger).

The population of the RGV is projected to double by the year 2045 (from 1.3 million to 2.4 million on the US side), driven by significant employment growth. The area’s 2-hour proximity to Monterrey, Mexico (Mexico’s second largest metro area and the nation’s commercial capital) has also been a significant boon to economic growth in South Texas. For in-state audiences, RGV’s 2.67 million binational population puts it above both the San Antonio and Austin metropolitan areas, which have 2.59 million and 2.28 million people, respectively.

Although financial terms have not yet been disclosed, the first phase of the acquisition for 24.9% of TME is scheduled to close during the first quarter of 2023, subject to traditional closing due diligence and terms and conditions.
