Sheffield launch partner signing

CityFibre (AIM: CITY), a leading designer, builder, owner, and operator of fibre optic infrastructure in UK towns and cities, is pleased to announce the signing of a launch partner agreement for its acquired networks in the Sheffield metro area.

The six-year, £3.3m deal commits CityFibre partner Exa Networks to delivering 250 school and business connections under an existing national framework agreement, focused on the Company's network in Sheffield, and also brings the benefits of gigabit connectivity to schools and businesses in Doncaster and Rotherham.

Today's agreement takes the number of connections sold by CityFibre on the networks acquired from KCOM in January to 1,450, and the value of contracts sold on the assets to £22.1m.

Capex coverage on the contract is in line with the Company's stated guidance.

Greg Mesch, Chief Executive of CityFibre, commented:

"We're delighted to extend our framework agreement with Exa into Sheffield, Doncaster and Rotherham. With this latest call-off, we demonstrate our ability to leverage our expanded footprint and drive commercialisation of the acquired assets at pace, bringing 10 cities into commercial production within seven months of acquisition close. It also brings us within striking distance of 4,000 connections sold year to date."

The information communicated in this announcement is inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation 596/2014.
