TRANS-LUX CORPORATION REPORTS PROFITABLE THIRD QUARTER, INCREASED REVENUE AND STRONG EBITDA

New York, NY (November 13, 2015) – Trans-Lux Corporation (OTCQB: TNLX) (“Trans-Lux”), a leading supplier of Digital Displays and next generation LED lighting, reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.  Trans-Lux President and Chief Executive Officer J.M. Allain made the announcement.

Third Quarter 2015

Trans-Lux Corporation today announced a profitable third quarter with net income of $173,000 ($0.10 per share) and EBITDA of $897,000.  This is a significant turnaround from the previous year’s quarterly net loss of $407,000 (loss of $0.25 per share) and EBITDA of $433,000.  The company reported revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2015 of $8.2 million, up from $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  This was achieved on the back of strong growth in the company’s digital display sales segment which recorded revenues of $7.3 million in 2015 compared to $4.9 million in 2014.

“Sales are up, gross profit is up, and general and administrative expenses are lower; overall we are very pleased with our performance.  Our success is attributed to the strength of our OEM program, which saw key installs in several major league and many amateur facilities.  The company also continued to establish itself as a key player in the LED Lighting space, where we scored key wins with global supply agreements that show great promise for growth in the future,” said J.M. Allain, President and CEO.

“Key factors are all navigating the right way, and with our Rights Offering closing in the next two weeks, we are seeing a significant return on the use of working capital.  The lack of cash during the past years severely hampered progress as it related to larger jobs.  Our access to working capital is transforming our business,” Mr. Allain added.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

Trans-Lux reported revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 of $18.6 million, up slightly from $18.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  Net loss in 2015 was $1.1 million (loss of $0.65 per share), compared with a net loss of $3.1 million (loss of $2.43 per share) in 2014.  EBITDA improved to $1.0 million in 2015 from negative EBITDA of $512,000 in 2014.

of a company's profitability or liquidity.  The Company's measure of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by
other companies.
