TransGaming Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2016 Results

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- Oct 28, 2015 -- TransGaming Inc. (TSX VENTURE: TNG) ("TransGaming" or the "Company") today reported its first quarter fiscal 2016 results. The Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ending August 31, 2015 and Management's Discussion and Analysis have been filed and are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Highlights

First quarter fiscal 2016 revenue was $0.5 million versus $0.7 million in the prior year quarter. Net income for the quarter was $3.2 million, which includes the impact of favourable foreign exchange gains and the gain on the disposal of the Company's cross-platform portability technology. The adjusted EBITDA loss for the quarter was $0.4 million compared $0.9 million for the same period last year. Overall, the first quarter of 2016 was a transformative period as the Company divested of a major business unit and meaningfully improved its financial position:


--  Sold its cross-platform portability technology to NVIDIA for $3.75
    million 

--  Repaid in full CA$1.8 million in outstanding principal and interest
    owing to BEST Funds with the proceeds from the NVIDIA transaction 

--  Launched its subscription-based cloud gaming service, GameTree TV GOLD,
    with various Smart TV partners beginning in early September 

Commenting on the results, Dennis Ensing, CEO of TransGaming stated:

"In Q1 we finished laying the foundation for the revenue growth priorities we established for fiscal 2016. These priorities were fourfold -- to realize the potential from our Smart TV network through our new billing capability, continue launches of GameTree TV GOLD for Smart TV, establish third party relationships to gain access to additional MSOs, and extend our existing MSO relationships to accelerate the growth of GameTree TV subscribers. The plan we developed and executed from in 2015 has produced tremendous results so far -- first to stabilize and strengthen the company financially, and now to capitalize on our leadership position and further penetrate significant segments within the fast-growing cloud gaming market. Our singular focus is to build growing scalable revenue from these initiatives."

TransGaming also announced today that, effective October 26, 2015, Mr. Brice Scheschuk was appointed the Chair of the Company's board of directors. Mr. Scheschuk has served on the Company's board for over two years and his current and past board and advisory positions include WIND Mobile, Globalive Communications, Pragmatic Solutions and many others. Mr. Scheschuk replaces Mr. Leo Lax, who very actively served as Chair of TransGaming's board for the past five years. Mr. Lax resigned his position as Chair due to personal reasons and will no longer serve on the board.
