In June 2021, Borqs began the delivery of cellular CTA-2045 EcoPort products to SkyCentrics, a promising Silicon Valley company specialized in machine learning and artificial intelligence for open standard power grid optimization, focusing on energy efficiency. Mobile connected CTA-2045 EcoPort devices will play an important role in smart cities. A smart city uses various types of electronic methods and sensors to collect data to gain insights into the management and operation of grid loads in order to improve efficiency and effectiveness. Smart and connected CTA-2045 controls can optimize the on/off schedule based on each household’s usage pattern, grid prices and carbon emissions. It is estimated that the energy savings as well as carbon emission reduction by CTA-2045 controlled residential water heaters can produce staggering results, with each one million CTA-2045 equipped water heaters equating to the removal of 100,000 gasoline powered cars from the highways.

With Borqs’ latest AI initiatives and repositioning, as well as, the divestiture value of our solar energy storage subsidiary, Holu Hou Energy (HHE), Stonegate Capital Partners has updated its coverage on Borqs Technologies, which includes a midpoint target price of $1.30/share. Recently, Borqs engaged Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., an internationally reputable investment bank, to head up the sales of Borqs’ ownership in HHE and reported that Borqs’ revenues reached $52.5 million, representing a 77.7% Year-Over-Year (YOY) growth rate for the year ended December 31, 2022.
