One Horizon Group's China Mobile VoIP Telco Subsidiary Aishuo Doubles Revenues for 3rd Consecutive Quarter in a Row

Aishuo App Surpasses 12 Million Downloads, China System Upgrade Scheduled for Immediate Deployment to Handle Demand

LIMERICK, IRELAND--(Dec 30, 2015) - One Horizon Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: OHGI), a leading carrier-grade VoIP solution for mobile providers and smartphones, announced today it has upgraded its China mobile VoIP telco Aishuo™ ("Aishuo") to allow the purchase of communication-stickers. The decision to expand the commercial offering in China was made due to the overwhelming growth of Aishuo with over 12 million downloads in the last 9 months, putting the company growth trajectory 18 months ahead of its forecasted targets to acquire 15 million app subscribers over a two-year period. As a result, Aishuo revenues have increased for a 3rd consecutive 100% growth quarter accelerating the monetization strategy.

Aishuo communication-stickers are a mix of cartoons and smiley-like emojis. This mix gives our users an addictive new way to communicate emotions and feelings with quirkiness. Using stickers is not only about being expressive, but saves users time over tapping out words on a phone, making communications easier and more rapid; particularly given that Chinese Hanzi is tricky to input digitally. Significant revenues have been seen in the sales of stickers in other social media and mobile apps around the world. The Company believes that industry standard revenues can be achieved with this new sticker feature-set for Aishuo.

One Horizon Group CEO, Brian Collins, noted, "Our deployment in China has exceeded all our internal forecasts and roll-out modeling. Now we're pushing even further across the Chinese social media market with the addition of the massively popular sticker communication feature. Some stickers will be free of charge while others will have a small payment attached for those special expressions that our mobile subscribers may wish to share."

Aishuo is available as a FREE download in over 25 App stores including Apple iTunes, Baidu 91.com and Baidu.com, the Tencent App store MyApp.com, 360 Qihoo store 360.cn and Xiaomi on mi.com. Aishuo supports all major Chinese mobile payment platforms including China UnionPay, Apple In-App Purchases, Alibaba's Alipay and Tencent's Wechat Wallet providing subscribers with convenient options to purchase call and sticker credit.
