TMNG GLOBAL REPORTS 36% REVENUE GROWTH IN 2008 SECOND QUARTER

 

Overland Park, KS – August 7, 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 second quarter ended June 28, 2008.

 

Revenues in the second quarter of 2008 were $20.6 million, up 36.1% over revenues of $15.1 million in the prior year period, reflecting solid contributions from both the Management Consulting and Software Solutions segments. During the quarter, TMNG Global’s gross margin was 46.2%, compared with 43.9% in the second quarter of 2007.

 

TMNG Global reported a net loss of ($8.9) million or ($0.25) per diluted share for the second quarter of 2008, compared to a net loss of ($1.7) million, or ($0.05) per diluted share in last year’s second quarter. Net loss in the quarter was impacted by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $9.1 million related to the March 2002 acquisition of CSMG. After adjusting for the after-tax impact of the impairment charge as well as other non-cash charges, including depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation, TMNG Global generated non-GAAP adjusted net income of $2.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, during the second quarter of 2008. The comparable non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, which included an adjustment for expenses related to the review of the Company’s option granting practices, was $0.1 million, or break even on a diluted share basis.

 


 

TMNG Global generated cash flow from operations of $4.3 million in the second quarter 2008, compared to $1.9 million in last year’s second quarter.

 

The Company ended the second quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $12.6 million, long-term investments of $14.3 million, no long-term debt, and stockholders’ equity of $44.8 million.

 

“Our continued revenue growth year-over-year and improved non-GAAP profitability demonstrate that our strategy is working well, even in a challenging environment for corporate spending,” said Richard Nespola, TMNG Global Chairman and CEO. “Our Ascertain™ revenue-assurance software and our self-amortizing consulting services remain in demand, particularly in the cable sector, and we continue to see solid new customer and total engagement activity overall. While an increasingly uncertain economy is causing a few select large service providers to tighten their belts and others to exercise caution in the timing of purchase decisions as we move into the second half of the year, we are in an excellent competitive position with strong customer interest in our unique offerings. We remain focused on driving revenue growth and positive cash flow from operations.”

 

Financial Results for the Twenty-Six Weeks Ended June 30, 2007

For the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008, revenues increased 39.3% to $42.1 million, compared with $30.2 million in the comparable year-ago period. TMNG Global’s gross margin was 46.6% during the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008, compared with 44.5% in the comparable year-ago period.

 

Net loss for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008 was ($8.6) million or ($0.24) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of ($3.3) million or ($0.09) per diluted share in the comparable year-ago period. GAAP results included the goodwill impairment charge in the second quarter of 2008, as discussed above. Non-GAAP adjusted net income, adjusted for the after tax impact of non-cash expenses, including the impairment charge, depreciation and amortization expense, and share-based compensation, was approximately $4.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008. The comparable non-GAAP adjusted net income for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2007 was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, which excluded expenses related to the review of the Company’s option granting practices.

 


For the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2008, cash flow from operations was $6.8 million, compared to ($0.5) million in the comparable year-ago period.

 

In addition to reporting net loss and net 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 Loss to Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income” that accompanies this press release. In making these non-GAAP adjustments, the Company took into account certain non-cash expenses and benefits, including tax effects as applicable, and the impact of certain items that are generally not expected to be on-going in nature. 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 Global’s comparative operating performance for the periods presented.

 

TMNG Global’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 Global’s non-GAAP measure may differ from similar measures by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Although TMNG Global’s management believes the non-GAAP financial measure is useful in evaluating the performance of its business, TMNG Global acknowledges that items excluded from such measure have a material impact on the Company’s net loss and net 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 Global’s results.
