TIANJIN, China, Dec. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Taoping Inc. (Nasdaq: TAOP) (the "Company"), a provider of innovative smart cloud platform services and solutions, today announced two significant strategic milestones underscoring its accelerating growth trajectory: the establishment of a new corporate headquarters and the signing of US$2 million in smart elevator renewal contracts. As part of its long-term growth and scale strategy, Taoping has officially relocated its corporate headquarters to a more prominent and strategic location in Tianjin, China. The new headquarters is situated in the Tiankai Higher Education Park on the 21st floor of Building 3, Tianjin Science and Technology Plaza, Keyan West Road, Nankai District, Tianjin. This move strengthens Taoping's operational foundation, enhances access to innovation resources, and positions the Company closer to key partners and customers stakeholders. Taoping will continue to maintain an active presence in Shenzhen, China, serving as its southern headquarters and innovation hub. Anchoring this relocation are the newly secured smart elevator renewal contracts valued at US$2 million, awarded to Taoping's newly acquired subsidiary, Skyladder (Tianjin) Technology Development Co., Ltd. The Company expects to complete the project and recognize the full contract value as revenue in the first quarter of 2026, providing near-term revenue visibility and reinforcing execution strength. China's elevator modernization market represents a substantial and rapidly expanding opportunity. According to official data from the State Administration for Market Regulation, China currently has approximately 12 million elevators in operation, with nearly 10% having been in service for more than 15 years. The large-scale renewal of aging elevators has become a national priority, supported by the July 2024 and January 2025 State-issued policy, "Several Measures on Strengthening Support for Large-scale Equipment Renewal and Consumer Goods Trade-in." Backed by favorable government policy, Taoping is addressing longstanding industry pain points through a technology-driven, data- and AI-enabled business model. Moving beyond the traditional single-equipment upgrade approach, Taoping leverages core technologies such as deep IoT perception and AI-powered autonomous decision-making to collect real-time elevator operational data through intelligent sensors. By integrating its proprietary platforms, the Company delivers a comprehensive, full life-cycle smart service system that enhances safety, efficiency, and operational intelligence, creating a clear and differentiated competitive advantage. Mr. Jianghuai Lin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Taoping, commented, "We are excited to be entering 2026 in a strong position for growth as we focus on unlocking greater value for shareholders. China's elevator industry is entering a powerful dual-growth cycle driven by both large-scale renewal demand and comprehensive intelligence upgrades. The deep synergy between Taoping's full life-cycle smart service capabilities and our platform resources significantly strengthens our strategic position in the smart elevator sector. Looking ahead, we will continue to advance our renewal plus integrated operations and maintenance model and leverage our proven success across key cities nationwide as we deliver sustainable long-term value for our shareholders."
