SHENZHEN, China, April 16, 2018 -- China Information Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: CNIT), a leading provider of internet-based ad distribution and ad display terminal sharing systems in China, announced that it has entered into a contract for the sale of 5,000 CNIT cloud-based elevator ad terminals to be installed in office buildings and residential communities throughout Anhui province, located across the basins of the Yangtze River and the Huai River.
Signed with Anhui Taoping Culture and Media Limited (“Anhui Taoping”), the contract is expected to generate sales and service revenue to CNIT of about $1.6 million. Today’s news is the twenty-seventh in a series of announcements since May of 2017 on CNIT’s sales of its cloud-based ad terminals. Each sale is expected to generate recurring service and commission revenue from customers' use of the Company’s Yunfa advertising distribution system and Taoping (淘屏) Net/ App ad screen sharing platform.
Anhui Taoping Culture and Media Limited has recently joined the Taoping Alliance, a nationwide advertising resource sharing platform jointly founded by CNIT and Shenzhen Taoping New-Media Limited, as the thirty-fourth member. Since its establishment in May 2017, the members of Taoping Alliance have increased to the coverage of over 20 provinces and provincial cities throughout China. Anhui Taoping will manage the implementation and operation of CNIT cloud-based ad terminals in prefecture-level cities in the Anhui Province.
“The follow-on contract in Anhui Province is a proven success following CNIT’s $1 million contract in June 2017,” said Mr. Jianghuai Lin, the Chairman and CEO of CNIT, “Anhui Taoping, as a newly joined member in Taoping Alliance, indicates that the Taoping new media eco-system will radiate to a larger and deeper market and bring values to the clients, with our continuing progress to make excellent movement around technology, innovation, media and digital advertising industry.”
