VERDO Completes New York State Registration and Establishes Independent Legal Entity to Accelerate Global Expansion

(Jennifer Miller)VERDO LTD has successfully completed its corporate registration with the New York State Department of State and has obtained a Money Services Business (MSB) license issued by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Registration No. 31000329787643).

This milestone marks VERDO's official transition into an independent legal entity, separate from its former parent company, Helbiz Group (now micromobility.com Inc.), and establishes the legal and regulatory foundation for its accelerated expansion across North America and the advancement of its technology innovation roadmap.

Strategic Significance of Independent Registration

VERDO's decision to establish itself as an independent company is driven by three core strategic priorities that could not be fully realized under its previous parent-company structure.

1. Unrestricted Market Expansion Capabilities

As a subsidiary within a global corporate group, VERDO faced inherent limitations in market-entry speed, regulatory flexibility, and capital allocation. The independent corporate structure now enables VERDO to:

· Establish separate legal entities in each target market, streamlining the acquisition of local operating licenses and permits.

· Optimize its cross-border corporate structure, particularly in preparation for expansion into Canada and Mexico in Q3 2026.

· Attract regional strategic investors and partnerships aligned with its North American growth strategy.

· Implement localized governance frameworks capable of responding rapidly to evolving regulatory requirements across all 50 U.S. states and international markets.

A VERDO spokesperson commented:

"The fragmented regulatory environment of the North American micromobility industry requires a dedicated, market-specific legal structure. By establishing ourselves as an independent company headquartered in New York, we have removed bureaucratic barriers that previously constrained our growth and created a platform designed to support scalable, compliant expansion throughout the Americas."

2. Accelerating the Technology Innovation Roadmap

Independent registration allows VERDO to pursue technology initiatives without being constrained by the broader portfolio priorities of a parent company.

Key technology programs benefiting from this new structure include:

· Dedicated R&D funding to advance its AI-powered Digital Twin Dispatch System, which has already improved fleet utilization by 35%.

· Accelerated development and commercialization of Level 4 autonomous driving technologies.

· Strategic partnerships with leading technology companies, including Tesla and Volkswagen, where clear intellectual property ownership and corporate governance structures are essential.

· Establishment of a dedicated Silicon Valley R&D center focused on next-generation mobility technologies.

The independent structure also enables VERDO to introduce equity-based incentive programs for engineering and technology teams, strengthening its ability to attract and retain top-tier talent in a highly competitive market.

3. Agile Operational and Financial Framework

The traditional asset-heavy business model that defined the first generation of shared mobility companies has proven increasingly unsustainable. VERDO's independent corporate structure enables the implementation of a fundamentally different operational and financial model:

· Full adoption of an asset-light operating model, whereby vehicles are owned by individual and institutional investors, while VERDO provides professional management services.

· Independent financial reporting, offering investors transparent and comprehensive visibility into North American business performance.

· Flexible capital structures that support targeted fundraising initiatives aligned with specific growth objectives.

· Faster decision-making processes, enabling real-time operational adjustments based on market conditions and user feedback.

The spokesperson added:

"This is far more than a legal formality-it represents a complete redesign of how we operate our business. We have built a company from the ground up specifically to address the unique challenges of North American micromobility, combining the agility of innovation, the discipline of profitable operations, and the scale required to become a market leader."

Commitment to Stakeholders

VERDO remains committed to creating long-term value for all stakeholders:

For Riders

For Investors

Transparent, asset-backed investment opportunities with stable return potential.

For Municipal Governments

The spokesperson concluded:
"VERDO represents the next generation of shared mobility. We have learned from both the successes and failures of the past decade and have built a company designed for long-term sustainability.

This independent registration serves as the foundation for our vision of becoming the leading micromobility platform across the Americas."
