Combined company renamed Verra Mobility Corporation and will trade on NASDAQ under VRRM and VRRMW

Gores Holdings II, Inc. (“Gores Holdings II”) (NASDAQ CM: GSHT, GSHTU, and GSHTW), a special purpose acquisition company sponsored by an affiliate of The Gores Group, LLC (“The Gores Group” or “Gores”), today announced that it completed the acquisition of Verra Mobility, the leading provider of tech-enabled smart transportation solutions. The transaction was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both Gores Holdings II and the ultimate parent company of Verra Mobility, and was approved at a special meeting of Gores Holdings II’s stockholders on October 16, 2018. Holders of fewer than 1% of the outstanding shares elected to exercise their redemption rights. In connection with the transaction, Gores Holdings II has been renamed Verra Mobility Corporation (“Verra Mobility” or “the Company”), and its common stock and warrants now trade on NASDAQ under the symbols “VRRM” and “VRRMW”, respectively.

As previously announced, in addition to the $400 million raised by Gores Holdings II in its initial public offering, large institutional investors such as GIC, Hamilton Lane and Northwestern Mutual participated in a $400 million private placement, which was led by Alec Gores, Chairman and CEO of The Gores Group. As a result of the acquisition and the private placement, funds managed by affiliates of Platinum Equity, the prior majority owners of Verra Mobility, hold an approximately 34% combined stake in the Company.

Verra Mobility is a global leader in smart mobility, serving the world's largest commercial fleets and rental car companies in managing tolling transactions and violations for more than 8.5 million vehicles and operating more than 4,000 red-light, speed, and school bus stop arm safety cameras. Verra Mobility maintains its leadership position in the marketplace through meaningful scale and has demonstrated consistent revenue growth underscored by its differentiated transaction processing model.

“This is an exciting day for Verra Mobility,” said David Roberts, CEO of Verra Mobility. “As our company grows we look forward to finding new and exciting ways to meet the needs of our customers. We are just scratching the surface of making transportation safer, smarter and more connected.”

Jacob Kotzubei, Partner at Platinum Equity, said, “We are proud of Verra Mobility’s rapid transformation, which is a credit to the company’s leadership team, the hard work of its employees and the value of Platinum’s M&A&O approach. We combined operational discipline with organic and acquisitive growth strategies to create a new global business that is well-positioned for continued success.”

Mark Stone, CEO of Gores Holdings II, said, “As a public market story, Verra Mobility is our ideal partner given its leading market position, strong financial profile, proven management team and compelling growth opportunities. We are excited to be part of this next chapter and look forward to partnering with Verra Mobility’s team to drive future stockholder value.”

Until recently, Verra Mobility was known as American Traffic Solutions, and was rebranded following the acquisitions of Highway Toll Administration and Euro Parking Collection, transactions that helped transform the business into a global enterprise with a broad range of transportation technology solutions. Verra Mobility is headquartered in Mesa, Arizona and currently operates in 15 countries.

As of the closing of the acquisition, the Verra Mobility Board of Directors consists of Randall Bort, Jacob Kotzubei, Bryan Kelln, Jeffrey Rea, David Roberts, Jay Geldmacher and John Rexford.
