("Regenersis" the "Company" or the "Group")
NEW BUSINESS WINS
Regenersis, a strategic outsourcing partner to many of the world's leading consumer technology companies, is pleased to announce a number of new contract wins.
The Group has won several new contracts in the depot repair business, which will be fulfilled through the Group's facilities in Spain and Germany. Customers include:
· Mobile phone repairs for Yoigo, which is the 4th largest mobile operator in Spain with over 4 million subscribers and is part of the Telia Sonera Group. Regenersis will become the repair partner for all the Sony mobile phones in the Yoigo estate and will cover both in warranty and out of warranty repairs.
· In what we believe is an industry first in Europe, Regenersis Germany has been awarded a contract by one of the world's leading, and most innovative, manufacturers of smartphones and other technology. The contract covers both in-warranty (non-carrier) and out-of-warranty (carrier/non carrier) devices, and is the first of its kind in Germany. Regenersis has been working with this manufacturer as an Approved Service Partner for many years and represents a logical and very significant strategic step for Regenersis in Europe.
In the Renew division, the Group is pleased to announce the launch a new mobile insurance proposition with a key mobile operator in Poland under the Digital Care brand.
· This includes an LCD Protection Plan and is a first to market offering making Digital Care the number 1 mobile protection provider in Poland. The scheme is underwritten by a large Polish underwriter.
· The product offering includes a 24 month cover for accidental damage to the customers' smart phone screen, which is an increasingly growing problem.
The above new business has been won since the half year results. They will underpin the sales growth already anticipated for next year.
Matthew Peacock, Executive Chairman of Regenersis, said:
"It is extremely pleasing to see these new pieces of business which represent significant strategic steps for Regenersis in moving us towards establishing ourselves us as the leading aftermarket services provider in the world."
