SinoHub, Inc. Announces New SCM Customers and Re-affirms Guidance
SHENZHEN, China, April 8, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- SinoHub, Inc. (NYSE Amex: SIHI), an electronics company whose major growth driver is manufacturing and distributing custom, private-label mobile phones, today announced that it has added three substantial new mobile phone design houses as supply chain management ("SCM") customers, namely, Tianlong Shenzhen, Gaophone Shanghai and Henzong Hong Kong. These new customers are expected to generate additional profits for the electronic sales and services ("ECSS") business segment. Transactions with these new customers will strengthen the Company's robust database of information available to support electronic component purchasing in its ECSS and integrated contract manufacturing ("ICM") business segments. Furthermore, SinoHub will have the opportunity to seek to engage these new SCM customers as suppliers of new reference designs for mobile phones in the ICM segment. These new clients are major Chinese design houses, similar to SinoHub's largest SCM client, Huaqin, which is now also an ICM supplier.
In light of the strong growth opportunities in SinoHub's ICM business segment and its strengthened working capital position as a result of its recently reported $11 million equity raise and existing bank facilities, SinoHub remains confident in the firm's fundamentals, strategy, and prospects. The Company has thus far not seen any significant impact on its business as a result of the recent earthquake in Japan and, as such, reaffirms its 2011 full year revenue guidance of 30% growth to $255 million as well as its target of producing and selling 3 million mobile phones for 2011, representing year-over-year growth of 160% in terms of handsets sold. SinoHub does not expect it will require further equity financing for the foreseeable future.
