This adjacency expansion complements PDI\u2019s enterprise software solutions while broadening the company\u2019s capability to serve customers better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The acquisition will add over 600 new customers to PDI\u2019s roster and allow PDI to deliver comprehensive, enterprise software technology and data solutions \u2013 adding another facet to PDI\u2019s robust suite of ERP and back-office solutions \u2013 that customers rely on to drive operational efficiency and increased margin. And as market demand continues to grow for consumer loyalty and engagement expertise, today\u2019s acquisition will better position PDI to provide solutions to convenience retail, fuel retailers and national brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The retail industry is as competitive as ever, and operators are innovating with new products and services, store formats, merchandising and pricing approaches, as well as customer engagement and loyalty programs \u2014 while never losing focus on improving the efficiency of their operations. To help them, today\u2019s retail operators want seamless loyalty and data solutions to drive the maximum return on their networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Excentus\u2019 innovative programs incorporate experiential benefits designed to drive deeper and more valuable customer relationships. Based on more than 20 years of expertise and knowledge in the industry, Excentus has proven that the right loyalty currency can change consumer behavior and has developed a full complement of technologies, marketing solutions, analytics, and know-how to help companies build, manage and improve loyalty programs, offers and promotions across all customer channels, devices and touchpoints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Excentus built its loyalty expertise by owning and operating the Fuel Rewards\u00ae program, the first in the U.S. and the largest multi-merchant national coalition program. The Fuel Rewards program boasts over 14.5 million members and has saved its members over 1 billion dollars in fuel purchases since its launch in 2012. In addition to operating and growing the Fuel Rewards program, Excentus is working directly with convenience retailers to deploy its technology, services, knowledge and know-how to help them design, build, and operate effective loyalty programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are delighted to add Excentus\u2019 leading software solutions, incredible customers, employees, and world-class loyalty programs and expertise to our existing portfolio. This acquisition is an ideal complement to PDI\u2019s existing business and one that supports our ongoing mission to help customers and employees thrive in a digital economy,\u201d said Jimmy Frangis, chief executive officer, PDI. \u201cThe portfolio expansion in the retail industry with Excentus\u2019 customer relationship solutions deepens and extends our retail capabilities. It\u2019s a perfect match to our existing enterprise software solutions and offerings that will help retail operators optimize and transform their business and provide customers with a more complete enterprise marketing solution.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PDI will create more value for customers with Excentus\u2019 full-service loyalty technology and marketing services by providing an integrated and unified view of pricing and promotions to help optimize and transform business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWorking with Excentus, Shell has delivered significant rewards to our customers with the Fuel Rewards\u00ae program,\u201d said Sydney Kimball, Vice President of Retail, Americas for Shell. \u201cWe look forward to continuing to deliver that industry-leading loyalty and rewards program going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe were excited to learn about PDI\u2019s acquisition of Excentus, and we look forward to the powerful synergies between the technology that drives our c-store operations and the technology that supports our customer loyalty program,\u201d says Steve Spinks, chief executive officer, The Spinx Company. \u201cBoth PDI and Excentus are leaders in their respective fields and have been great partners for Spinx for many years. We\u2019re confident that the combined company can bring our operational and customer data together into one platform that will allow us to drive even more value from our stores and to our customers,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Integrating a World-Class Analytics Platform<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PDI will add Excentus\u2019 Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) loyalty platform into its current portfolio and offerings. The full complement of loyalty solutions deliver analytics and expertise to help retailers go beyond traditional loyalty. Excentus\u2019 solutions use data and analytics to help customers effectively manage consumer relationships and find new ways to increase engagement with more compelling and targeted offers.
