Newland Digital Technology Co.Ltd(000997) business can be divided into three sectors: acquiring and value-added services, intelligent terminals and software services. Among them, payment acquiring and intelligent terminals are the cornerstone business. The reversal of the company’s fundamentals is mainly due to the rebound of the two sectors. 1) The acquiring business has ushered in an inflection point, and the flow and rate are expected to double-click.

The core reason is the accelerated penetration of intelligent POS machines driven by digital RMB and the strong demand for POS machines in overseas markets, especially in South America.
