Datametrex AI Announces Completion Of Hilco Global Patent Portfolio Qualification Review

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / June 1, 2026 / Datametrex AI Limited (the “Company” or “Datametrex”) (TSXV:DM)(FSE:D4G)(OTC:DTMXF) is pleased to announce that Hilco Global has completed its initial qualifying due diligence review of the patent portfolio owned by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Paymetrex Payment Solutions Inc. (“Paymetrex”).

The review was conducted pursuant to a contingency based collaboration between Paymetrex and Hilco Global announced on April 8, 2026. The collaboration is focused on evaluating and pursuing potential monetization opportunities associated with Paymetrex’s intellectual property portfolio.

Following completion of its review process, Hilco Global has advised Paymetrex that the portfolio demonstrates relevance across multiple payment technology categories, including the rapidly expanding SoftPOS (software point-of-sale) and mobile payment acceptance market.

Hilco Global further advised that the portfolio has successfully passed its internal qualification process for advancement into a structured licensing initiative. Based on the current review timeline, the parties anticipate that a broader licensing program may commence within approximately two months.

“The completion of Hilco Global’s qualification process represents an important milestone in the advancement of our patent monetization strategy,” said Michael Kron, COO of Datametrex AI Limited. “We are encouraged by Hilco Global’s assessment regarding the relevance of the portfolio, particularly in relation to evolving software-based payment technologies and the growing SoftPOS ecosystem.”

“Hilco Global’s review process is designed to assess commercial relevance, licensing viability, and strategic positioning across large addressable markets,” said Eric Hurwitz, Senior Director of the Hilco Global IP Services practice. “Based on our due diligence, we believe the Paymetrex portfolio warrants advancement into a broader licensing initiative, and we look forward to working collaboratively with the Company as the program progresses.”

SoftPOS technology enables merchants to accept contactless payments directly on smartphones and NFC-enabled devices without dedicated payment terminals. Industry adoption of software-based payment acceptance has accelerated in recent years, driven by financial institutions, fintech providers, and payment processors seeking scalable, lower-cost merchant enablement solutions, according to multiple industry reports and payment network publications.

The Company cautions that the licensing initiative remains ongoing and exploratory in nature. There can be no assurance that any licensing agreements, royalty arrangements, or other commercial outcomes will result from the anticipated program.
