OVERLAND PARK, Kan., May 10, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TMNG Global (Nasdaq:TMNG), a premier provider of professional services and technical solutions to the global leaders in the communications, digital media, and technology industries, reported financial results for its 2012 first quarter ended March 31, 2012.
"The new leadership team at TMNG Global is putting a foundation in place aimed at supporting two key goals: a return to profitability and the development of long-term strategic growth," said Donald Klumb, CEO of TMNG Global. "In the first quarter, that work included stabilizing the revenue base, significantly reducing the selling, general and administrative expense structure, and creating an environment of enhanced communication, integration, and accountability throughout the company. On the revenue line, we are working to drive sustainability by focusing on initiatives that leverage our blue chip client base, unique consulting capabilities and software to create new opportunities and solutions that enable our clients to navigate the converging environments of communications, media and technology."
Financial Results for the Thirteen Weeks Ended March 31, 2012
Revenues in the first quarter of 2012 were $13.8 million, compared to $16.9 million in the first quarter of 2011 and $13.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Revenue comparisons with the first quarter of 2011 were difficult due to a significant Tier 1 carrier engagement that was substantially completed during 2011. During the quarter, TMNG's gross margin was 36.8%, compared with 37.3% in the first quarter of 2011 and 34.8% in the fourth quarter of 2011. The sequential improvements in revenues and gross margins were driven by an increase in strategic project volume by CSMG and better leveraging of consulting capacity.
TMNG Global reported a net loss of ($1.2) million on a GAAP basis, or ($0.17) per diluted share for the first quarter of 2012, which was flat compared with the first quarter of 2011 and less than the net loss of ($1.4) million or ($0.20) per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2011. The first quarter of 2012 included significant one-time charges related to the Company's strategic initiatives, including severance expenses, and general and administrative cost reductions. After adjusting for the after tax impact of depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense, non-GAAP adjusted net loss was ($1.0) million, or ($0.13) per diluted share during the first quarter of 2012. The comparable non-GAAP adjusted net loss was ($0.7) million, or ($0.10) per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and ($1.2) million, or ($0.16) per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2011.
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 Loss" 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 or that are unrelated to the Company's core operations. Management believes non-GAAP financial information provides a useful basis for evaluating underlying business performance, but should not be considered in isolation and is not a substitute for 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 and on a sequential basis. TMNG Global's non-GAAP measure may differ from similar measures used 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.
