NetSol (NTWK) Signs Contract to Implement NFS CAP Solution with a Major U.S. Auto Manufacturer in China

CALABASAS, Calif., July 26, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NetSol Technologies, Inc. (“NetSol” or “Company”) (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 the Company was awarded a major software and IT services contract valued at over $1 million with a major U.S. automotive manufacturer’s captive finance arm in China. Under the terms of the contract, the Company will provide its Credit Application Processing solution to fully automate point of sale (POS) functions in the client’s Chinese dealer network. NetSol will install its next-generation platform to capture all credit and client data at the point of sale to streamline and automate the entire credit application capture process.

Naeem Ghauri, President and Head of Global Sales at NetSol, commented: “This is a major win for NetSol’s China operations. Our state-of-the-art auto leasing platform has become the de facto gold standard in the Chinese IT market. This new win clearly establishes NFS as a market leader with over 90% IT market share in China’s captive auto finance sector. We expect to sign a number of new deals in the foreseeable future, as our pipeline remains strong and growing.”

China overtook the U.S. in 2009 to become the world’s largest auto market, with over 13 million vehicles sold during the year. Research firm J.D. Power and Associates projects that sales of passenger vehicles (a category that includes passenger cars, SUVs and minivans) in China will increase from 8.7 million vehicles in 2009 to 13.5 million vehicles by 2015, an increase of more than 55%.

Credit Application Processing (CAP), a component of the NetSol Financial Suite (NFSTM) of products, is a web-based credit evaluation system. CAP provides finance and leasing companies with the ability to quickly assess the merit and risk level of an applicant applying for a loan or a lease. The system is seamlessly integrated with NetSol’s POS module, but it can also be customized to link to any third-party point of sale system.
