As an approved supplier to Vodafone, CityFibre now has the opportunity to bring enhanced pure fibre connectivity to Vodafone's customers. Furthermore, the addition of Vodafone to our partner ecosystem means that CityFibre has now secured trading relationships with the majority of Tier 1 service providers in the business and mobile connectivity markets."

About CityFibre:

CityFibre enables gigabit connectivity through designing, building, owning, and operating fibre optic network infrastructure. It is the largest independent wholesale provider of fibre infrastructure to mid-sized cities and major towns across the UK, providing gigabit-capable infrastructure for enterprise and public sector organisations, service providers, mobile network operators and businesses.

The Group owns and operates 618 route kilometres of local access networks serving 1,017 customer connections in 61 towns and cities in the UK, including Aberdeen, Bath, Bournemouth, Coventry, Derby, Doncaster, Dundee, Edinburgh, Huddersfield, Kingston-upon-Hull, Newcastle, Newport, Peterborough, Sheffield, and York.

To date the Company has launched five Gigabit City projects in York, Peterborough, Coventry, Aberdeen, and Edinburgh, where city-wide pure fibre networks known as 'COREs' bring world-class Internet connectivity and the benefits of gigabit speeds to every aspect of the city's community. The Company has also delivered the UK's first dark fibre-based Fibre-to-the-Tower network in Kingston-upon-Hull, under a national framework agreement with MBNL, Three UK and EE.

The CityFibre COREs are deployed using the Company's Well Planned City (WPC) design philosophy, in which its city-wide core fibre infrastructure is designed with thousand-strand fibre cables in dual ducts optimally routed to serve the present and future demand of the public sector, mobile base stations, business park estates, and ultimately designed to serve as feeder and distribution network for Fibre-to-the- Home deployments.

CityFibre is also a founding member of a joint venture with TalkTalk and Sky. Established in early 2014, the collaboration aims to prove the viability of gigabit speed Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) networks and services for homes and businesses. Work is currently underway to connect tens of thousands of homes and businesses in York to a future-proof FTTP modern digital infrastructure.

CityFibre is based in London, United Kingdom, and its shares trade on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange (AIM: CFHL). To find out more, please visit: www.cityfibre.com
