Route1 and HTM Sensors Change the Name of their Industrial Data Analytics Software to ActionPLAN, Powered by MobiNET

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Nov. 23, 2017) - Route1 Inc. (OTCQB:ROIUF)(TSX VENTURE:ROI) (the "Company" or "Route1"), a world-leader in secure data protection technologies and user authentication for government and enterprise, today announced that with its partner HTM Sensors, it has changed the name of its industrial data analytics offering to ActionPLAN, Powered by MobiNET.

"We have received quality client feedback that suggested to HTM and Route1 that the Spotlight brand did not adequately capture the important benefits of our disruptive technology. ActionPLAN, Powered by MobiNET better describes the action orientation of what our technology delivers", said Tony Busseri, Route1 CEO. "ActionPLAN, Powered by MobiNET allows our clients to know exactly where to look to solve their production issues. It's not just shining a light on where to look but ActionPLAN, Powered by MobiNET tells you what your exact priority inputs are that are translating into downtime; it allows you to develop an action plan based on facts. You are able to focus your resources on acting with the input's exact location, its exact root cause and its exact cost and not guessing what inputs in your plant are creating the downtime."

Route1, and its partner HTM Sensors, entered into a paying client relationship with a Tier 1 automotive parts manufacturer which has one of its plants located in North York, Ontario, Canada in September 2017.
