Control Mobile, a Vancouver, British Columbia-based technology company, was placed in receivership on April 12 on application by the McDonnell Group, owed approximately $508.6M. Founded in 2014 and backed by Vanedge Capital and BDC Capital, the company provides an analytics platform for online businesses to manage and analyze their online transaction data and quickly grew to over 25.0M customers. Despite its growth, the company recently ran into cash flow difficulties. In January 2018, the company accepted a secured promissory note from the McDonnell Group, but defaulted on the note soon after. Crowe MacKay was appointed receiver. Counsel is Fasken for the applicant and Farris for the company.
