Given the company’s performance and the growing diversity of our product lines, I feel the intrinsic value of YAYO shares should be reflected in a higher market price.” He added: “The transaction with the Gray Trust and my recent and continuing open market purchases of the company’s common stock has increased my ownership percentage to approximately 26%.” The Rideshare Rental boss noted that he was committed to creating value for the company’s stockholders. “We will endeavor to grow RSR organically using the capital at our disposal, and we intend to pursue attractive strategic alternatives,” added El-Batrawi. “We are also contemplating several steps in order to create more investment community exposure for YAYO, including a possible uplisting.” The company acts through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rideshare Car Rentals LLC, a leading provider of vehicles to the rideshare industry.
