**Adding multi-carrier eSIM, a unified connectivity management platform and Tier-
1 US carrier partnerships to CSL’s global IoT connectivity platform**

LONDON and DULUTH, Ga., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CSL Group, the leading global
provider of Critical Connectivity®, has acquired SIMPL Wireless, the US-based IoT
eSIM connectivity provider. The acquisition gives CSL a North American home and 
gives customers connectivity that is simple, fast and fully under their control,
within a single, resilient connectivity service.

As IoT estates grow across borders, enterprises need to manage every SIM, contract
and network from one place. Unified management lowers cost and speeds deployment,
while multi-network resilience keeps devices connected when a network goes down.

The acquisition, CSL’s second in 2026 following IoTM Solutions in July, strengthens
CSL’s ability to help customers build resilient IoT estates – with the uptime and
operational control that life, mission and business-critical applications demand.

**Simple. Fast. Yours.**

SIMPL’s promise is simple, fast and yours: connectivity that goes live quickly, 
runs on the SIMs, APNs, hardware and carrier contracts customers already have, and
keeps them in control of every connection. EverSIM, its multi-carrier eSIM built
on unmodified, GSMA SAS-certified Thales eUICC infrastructure and native to SGP.
22 and SGP.32, gives customers the option to buy connectivity from SIMPL or bring
their own from up to 100 mobile network operators, with 5G Standalone support, backward-
compatible to NB-IoT. A single SIM SKU carries a native primary carrier profile,
and customers can localise anywhere by downloading local profiles over the air, 
with backup profiles that step in automatically if the primary network goes down
and hand back when it returns. Compass, its single-pane-of-glass platform, gives
customers one dashboard and one API to activate, monitor and manage SIMPL SIMs alongside
existing carrier SIMs, with automated self-healing via auto-profile fallback.

Historically, enterprise eSIM deployments have taken a year or more because of platform
integrations, carrier certifications and custom development. EverSIM compresses 
that timeline to days, enabling customers to move quickly from proof of concept 
to production while maintaining centralised oversight. Speed, simplicity, control–
it just works.

With established partnerships including T-Mobile and Thales, SIMPL serves Solution
Providers and Resellers in addition to customers across retail, transport, energy
and EV charging. This gives CSL an immediate US customer base, local go-to-market
capability and Tier-1 carrier relationships.

Combined with CSL’s patented rSIM® multi-network resilience and IoTM’s connectivity
orchestration, SIMPL completes a single operating model for customers: manage every
SIM and eSIM, and stay online when a network fails.

**Jason Morrow, CEO of SIMPL Wireless, said:**

_"SIMPL was built on three ideas: speed, simplicity and control. IoT connectivity
should be fast to activate, run on what customers already have, and stay theirs 
to control – it should just work. Joining CSL Group puts that on a platform engineered
for uptime and backed by three decades of critical connectivity expertise. For our
customers, nothing changes on day one except what we can now offer them."_

The SIMPL team will join CSL Group, and SIMPL will continue to serve its existing
customers, carriers and partners – as SIMPL Wireless, a CSL Group company.

**Expanding CSL in North America**

CSL already delivers managed IoT connectivity and patented rSIM® resilience across
more than three million connections in building security, healthcare, infrastructure,
utilities and transport. SIMPL gives CSL the US base, carrier relationships and 
local team to bring that capability to North American customers.

Together, CSL, IoTM and SIMPL enable customers to deploy globally, connect with 
confidence, automate SIM and eSIM lifecycle management and keep critical devices
online as their estates grow.

**Ed Heale, CEO of CSL Group, commented:**

_"Customers shouldn’t have to choose between flexibility and resilience. Bringing
SIMPL into CSL Group gives us a home in North America and a platform that lets customers
connect anywhere, with the certainty critical applications require." _

Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
