One Horizon Group Signs Cooperation Agreement With China–s Largest Logistics Company to Trial Aishuo

LIMERICK, IRELAND — (Marketwired) — 08/20/15 — One Horizon Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: OHGI) (“One Horizon”, “We” or the “Company”), which operates its own Chinese retail VoIP service, branded Aishuo, and develops and licenses a bandwidth efficient mobile voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) platform for smartphones, announced today that it has signed a cooperation agreement with YTO Express to commence a trial of the Aishuo VoIP platform in Jiangsu province. YTO Express is one of the largest logistics businesses in China offering the most comprehensive logistics coverage in China after China Post, operating in the same core business as FedEx, DHL and UPS. YTO Express manages 8 logistics compounds, operates 72 transfer centers and over 12,500 pick-up points, and has over 180,000 employees servicing more than 2,300 cities in China.

One Horizon Group looks to further expand and diversify its subscriber base through the delivery of a White-Labeled Aishuo solution to the YTO Express workforce. Aishuo–s optimized Voice over IP technology was selected from a shortlist of platforms because its unique low bandwidth usage coupled with high voice quality makes it an ideal solution for smaller capacity and heavily congested Internet connections such as those found on 2G, 3G and 4G throughout mainland China.

The logistics sector in China is expanding at a very significant pace. Logistics services require numerous voice calls among drivers, dispatchers and customers to co-ordinate deliveries and handle enquiries. By using the Aishuo platform, YTO Express– communication costs can be significantly reduced, while the performance of its core business can be optimized by leveraging ultra-modern smartphone technology.

One Horizon Group CEO Brian Collins noted, “We were delighted to be able to enter a fully-branded trial of our VoIP solution with one of the largest logistics companies here in China and we were confident that our cooperation with YTO Express in the coming years will be a significant revenue driver for One Horizon. Enabling the despatchers and drivers to call the end-customer at a lower cost improves margins for YTO Express and is a real win-win solution for both of our companies.”

Mr. Xiaoping Zhang, Divisional CEO of YTO Express Jiangsu Division #3, said, “Managing costs in the logistics business is key to our growth and profitability. By using a reliable Voice over IP solution, we expect to greatly reduce our communication costs while still maintaining quality. We look forward to working with the Aishuo platform to deliver VoIP along with technological innovations to our customers and staff.”

Downloads of the Aishuo retail App have already surpassed 7 million across the 20 Chinese Android App stores including Baidu, Tencent, 360.CN and Xiaomi. The Aishuo rollout to Chinese smartphone users commenced in late February 2015 and the Company is seeking to acquire 15 million new subscribers over a two-year period with a view to leverage this significant user base to achieve industry average revenues per user (ARPU) for similar social media, mobile advertising and mobile VoIP apps.

Aishuo is available as a FREE download in over 25 App stores including Apple–s iTunes, Baidu–s and , the Tencent App store , 360 Qihoo store and Xiaomi on .
