TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Oct. 29, 2013) - TransGaming Inc. (TSX VENTURE:TNG) ("TransGaming" or the "Company"), the global leader in developing and delivering platform-defining social video game experiences to consumers around the world, today reported its first quarter fiscal year 2014 results. The Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended August 31, 2013 and Management's Discussion and Analysis have been filed and are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Highlights

TransGaming's first quarter of fiscal 2014 continued the strong trend of quarter over quarter increases in revenue, and the following highlights should be noted:

  • Overall, revenue was up 14% over the same quarter last year, at $1.8 million

  • Although historically Q1 is the Company's weakest quarter, FY14 Q1 was almost operating break-even with an adjusted EBITDA loss of only $34,000

  • The $1.0 million licensing agreement with a cloud services provider announced in April 2013 was substantially completed in the quarter and delivered subsequent to quarter end

  • Subsequent to quarter end the Company launched with Philips the world's first video ad-supported games service on Smart TV

Commenting on the results, Vikas Gupta, CEO & President of TransGaming stated:

"We are off to a strong start for fiscal 2014 with a record Q1 that was almost break-even. These quarterly results demonstrate our continued diligence on achieving self-sustainability and we are working hard to grow revenues while maintaining our expenses. This momentum sets the pace for the fiscal year with many exciting and material developments underway.

The launch of GameTree TV on Philips represents the first of many new deployments to come. Each deployment adds a multi-million audience and allows us to build a scaleable revenue model. The completion of another major licensing arrangement, that delivered high-margin revenues, also underscores the increasing importance of our core translation technology across a range of platforms. Overall, I am very pleased with Q1 and believe it represents the growing trajectory TransGaming is on."
