TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwire) — 11/26/12 — TransGaming Inc. (TSX VENTURE: TNG), would like to address the concerns evident in the marketplace regarding the current state of the business. The company-s management, board, and employees are all committed and focused on ensuring the ongoing growth of TransGaming. We recognize and hear the questions and concerns raised by our shareholders regarding our cash flow and we have taken steps to restructure the company towards achieving an even more streamlined organization, with a reduced cost base. A number of alternatives remain under consideration, but for now we believe these steps will allow us to reach our goal of break-even by Q3 or Q4 of this fiscal year.
The business itself has demonstrated ongoing strength with a compounded annual growth rate in revenue in excess of 30% in the past 5 years. Even our detractors have cited significant revenue growth projections for this current fiscal year (2013), which we are on target to achieve.
As part of the effort to streamline the company, we have recently completed a major internal restructuring that has now organized the business into two P&L verticals: i) The Graphics & Portability Group (GPG) which handles all of our licensing of core IP related to Cider and SwiftShader; ii) The Digital Media Group (DMG) which handles all of our in-home content and digital distribution. We have integrated our acquired iTV business unit and our GameTree TV business unit together into a single unified division to leverage common resources and talent pool. Both groups operate as their own P&Ls and are being measured against internal budgets and forecasts. Additionally, over the last 2-3 quarters, we have implemented a 30% reduction in headcount to reduce expenses along with other cost constraining measures.
We have strong growth prospects ahead of us, which are outlined below.
For our Graphics and Portability Group:
For our Digital Media Group:
Finally, to strengthen the balance sheet, TransGaming is working with our investment bankers and financial institutions to evaluate a range of options that will provide the markets with the comfort that the company-s current liquidity risk will be reduced.
We delivered a record FY13 Q1 and we expect continued strength in Q2, and the following quarters, towards a fiscal year that will be marked by the greatest year-over-year growth to-date. Therefore, we remain bullish about the company-s future prospects.
