Vertican Technologies, Inc. of Montville, NJ (VTI) and Automated Collection Control, Inc. d/b/a YGC Solutions of Pine Brook, NJ (YGC) are both pleased to announce that their Boards of Directors have approved a definitive agreement for YGC to merge with Vertican, effective June 1, 2014. The agreement, endorsed by unanimous shareholder consent on both sides, is a friendly, stock-for-stock transaction in which Vertican has acquired 100 percent of YGC shares in exchange for shares of Vertican.

The transaction will provide the collection industry with best-in-class technology that will help make their operations more efficient, compliant, and profitable.

“In addition to creating a world-class company, this is a compelling strategic transaction that will leverage our commitment to excellence and continuous improvement for the collection industry through insight-driven innovation,” said Stevan H. Goldman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Vertican Technologies, Inc. “The addition of YGC and its innovative YouveGotClaims technology to Vertican creates an exciting opportunity for our customers, our company and for our talented and dedicated team members.”

Jeffrey Zuck, publisher of The National List of Attorneys and co-founder of YGC added “Vertican’s commitment to excellence in customer service is perfectly aligned with our philosophy at YGC.  Not only did this add impetus to the merger, it also ensures uninterrupted dedication to our customer’s success.  For all concerned, this is a great next step for YGC.”

According to Isaac Goldman, Chief Operating Officer at Vertican Technologies, “This combination creates a company that will synergize the YouveGotClaims technology with the case management software from CLS and Q-Soft. The opportunity to bring all of these exceptional teams together will result in tighter cross-platform integration for all of our customers, while improving reliability and transparency throughout the entire collection industry.”  Isaac has previously served as Chief Operating Officer at both CLS and YGC.

“We expect an accelerated deployment of existing and new innovative products and services for our customers, said Kurt Sund, founder of Q-Soft and now the Chief Technology Officer of Vertican, adding “This merger delivers enormous opportunities for our current and future customers.  The closer working relationship with YGC’s customers positions Vertican closer to the entire collection cycle, from issuers, to buyers, to servicers. The resulting development benefits will be immediate and significant.”

Vertican will begin releasing new products immediately, beginning with Vertiply, its new comprehensive compliance tracking and reporting software.  Full support and ongoing software enhancements will continue, uninterrupted, on all existing products from all four Vertican-owned companies, Q-Soft, CLS, YGC and Fillimerica.
