CALABASAS, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/28/09 -- NetSol Technologies, Inc. "NetSol" (NASDAQ: NTWK) (NASDAQ DUBAI: NTWK), a U.S. corporation providing global business services and enterprise application solutions to private and public sector organizations worldwide, today announced that it has secured a significant follow on contract fee from Toyota Motor Finance China. The additional NetSol Financial Suite (NFS) license fee is attributed to the rapid growth in Toyota Motor Finance's business portfolio volume in the Chinese market, which in turn triggered the additional license upgrade for the NFS Credit Application Processing System (CAP) and Contract Management System (CMS). The agreement also calls for additional ongoing maintenance revenue to support the expanded license base.
Mr. Najeeb Ghauri, NetSol Technologies, Inc. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "I would like to congratulate Toyota Motor Finance China for the rapid growth of their automotive business in China. The NetSol team's ability to be agile in terms of quickly responding to the rising demands associated with the expansion of the Chinese auto market reflects the professional support NetSol is dedicated to providing to help meet Toyota's increasing auto finance business in China. As a market leader for automotive captive finance solutions in the Chinese market, NetSol is well positioned to support its customers' dramatic organic growth in the region. With China recently surpassing the United States in terms of monthly automobile sales, to become the world's largest automotive market, and increasing levels of consumer finance activity, we continue to see tremendous opportunities for growth in the Chinese captive finance market."
Each NetSol contract signed globally now includes a pricing point structure whereby additional license fees are payable to NetSol once a client portfolio reaches certain milestones. As the growth in the Chinese automotive sector has outperformed most global markets, NetSol expects to benefit from such upgrades as the company's other captive automotive finance clients grow their businesses in the region.
