TMNG GLOBAL REPORTS 2008 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

- First Quarter Revenue Increases 43%; Continued Profitability with GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.01 and Non-GAAP Diluted EPS of $0.06 -

 

Overland Park, KS – May 8, 2008 – TMNG Global (Nasdaq: TMNG), a leading provider of management consulting and software solution services to the global communications, media and entertainment industries, reported financial results for its 2008 first quarter ended March 29, 2008.

 

Revenues in the first quarter of 2008 were $21.5 million, up 42.5% over revenues of $15.1 million in the prior year period, reflecting the contribution of our acquisitions of TWG Consulting and RVA Consulting, as well as strong performance from our software solutions segment and organic growth in our management consulting business. During the quarter, TMNG’s gross margin was 47.0%, compared with 45.0% in the first quarter of 2007.

 

TMNG Global reported net income of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2008, compared to a net loss of ($1.7) million, or ($0.05) per diluted share in last year’s first quarter. After adjusting for the after-tax impact of non-cash expense related to depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation, TMNG Global generated non-GAAP adjusted net income of $2.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, during the first quarter of 2008. The comparable non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2007, which also includes an adjustment for expenses related to

 


the review of the Company’s option granting practices, was $0.1 million, or break even per diluted share.

 

The Company ended the first quarter with cash and short-term investments of $13.1 million, working capital of $18.2 million, no long-term debt, and stockholders’ equity of $56.2 million. Due to liquidity challenges in the auction rate securities market, during the quarter TMNG reclassified $14.8 million in original par value of short-term investments, having a carrying value of $14.3 million as of March 29, 2008, as long-term investments. Prior to the challenges in the auction rate securities market, TMNG converted $2.3 million in par value of auction rate securities into cash or money market investments during the first quarter of 2008.

 

“Solid revenue growth and improved profitability in the quarter demonstrate that our strategy of achieving increased scale through organic growth and acquisition is working. The volume of engagements has continued to expand as our enhanced capabilities allow us to further penetrate larger client organizations with multiple projects. This added value is evidence of the successful integration of our acquisitions, with our consultants working closely together in generating business and sharing knowledge and resources,” said Richard Nespola, TMNG Global Chairman and CEO. “While the cloudy economic environment adds a degree of caution to our outlook, our business pipeline remains healthy, giving us confidence that we remain in good position to generate continued year-over-year revenue and profitability improvement.”

 

In addition to reporting net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share on a GAAP basis, this press release contains certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described in the schedule entitled “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income (Loss) to Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income” that accompanies this press release. In making these non-GAAP adjustments, the Company took into account the impact of certain items that are generally not expected to be on-going in nature and certain non-cash expenses and benefits, including tax effects as applicable. Management believes the exclusion of these items provides a useful basis for evaluating underlying business performance, but should not be considered in isolation and is not in accordance with, or a substitute for, evaluating Company performance utilizing GAAP financial information. The Company believes that providing such adjusted results allows investors and other users of the Company’s financial statements to better understand TMNG’s comparative operating performance for the periods presented.

 


TMNG’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measure in its own evaluation of the Company’s performance, particularly when comparing performance to the prior year’s period. TMNG’s non-GAAP measure may differ from similar measures by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Although TMNG’s management believes the non-GAAP financial measure is useful in evaluating the performance of its business, TMNG acknowledges that items excluded from such measure may have a material impact on the Company’s net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, management uses non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP results. Investors and other users of our financial information should also consider the above factors when evaluating TMNG’s results.
