t42 IoT Tracking Solutions plc
t42 signs a five year U.S. distribution contract for containers
tracking solutions with exclusivity linked to the achievement of
total estimated sales of US$76m
t42 IoT Tracking Solutions plc (AIM: TRAC) ("t42" or the
"Company"), the real-time tracking, security and monitoring
solutions for the global container and freight market, is pleased
to announce a five-year contract with OpenBox Ventures Inc
("OpenBox"), for the sale and distribution of some of t42's
tracking solutions and services across the USA (the
"Contract").
In order to maintain exclusivity, OpenBox must meet minimum
annual order volumes and whilst these are not guaranteed, if they
are met it could result over the period of the Contract in over
280,000 t42 Tracking Lock units (previously known as Lokies)
supplied to OpenBox and revenue of approximately US$21m in the
first three years and a total of US$76 million over the five years
of the Contract, of which approximately US$29 million is expected
to be contributed by recurring SaaS revenues.
OpenBox distributes cutting edge technologies across the US
security industry ensuring the integrity of goods transported in
shipping containers. It will act as the vendor and distributor of
the t42 Tracking Lock product in the USA, as well as on certain
online platforms. t42's remaining innovative IoT capabilities which
enable real-time tracking, monitoring and security for shipping
container owners remain outside the scope of the Contract, which
the management of t42 believe have huge revenue potential in the
USA alone, in addition to the Contract.
The Company's new strategy targets the multibillion-dollar
global shipping container industry, where the Board sees immense
unmet asset tracking needs. t42's state-of-the-art solution
provides 24/7 real-time monitoring, cloud-based analytics, enhanced
security and actionable data for target customers which includes
ports, cargo owners, shipping companies, freight forwarders,
insurance companies, customs authorities and homeland security and
police.
Avi Hartmann, CEO of t42, commented:
"We are delighted to announce t42 IoT Tracking Solutions plc's
second sales and distribution partnership since the implementation
of the Company's new strategy. The Contract with OpenBox reflects
our new strategic focus on the global shipping container market and
the minimum orders needed for exclusivity to be maintained by the
distributor are a strong indicator of the major sales opportunities
they believe they can achieve.
"The Board believes that considerable losses for global shipping
and logistics companies, and the disruption to supply chains, could
be prevented by widespread adoption of t42's real-time monitoring
solution. The Company is therefore keen to spread the benefits of
its tracking technology as widely as possible around the world and
to deliver significant benefits in terms of improved reliability
and efficiency of global supply chain assets. This will in turn
drive down costs for the shipping industry, and hence for end user
consumers.
"With discussions now well advanced on a promising pipeline of
substantial projects within the sector, we look forward to
providing further updates in due course."
