Commenting on the results, Dennis Ensing, Chief Operating Officer & Interim CEO of TransGaming stated:
"2014's restructuring of our key revenue models served as an excellent springboard to 2015. Our publishing pipeline is now set for the first 9 months into this year with as many as 15 titles to be released. And, as promised, 2015 has brought a new monetization of our global Smart TV cloud gaming footprint with a focus on building subscriptions across our service into a sustainable growing and recurring revenue stream.
"We are committed to attain profitability more quickly with a plan that has already been implemented to reduce annual operating expenses by more than $750,000. Finally we have also identified technology assets that are not central to these priorities and are pursuing opportunities to unlock the value of our investments in these assets to further enhance shareholder value. I am very pleased and excited to lead our team as we concentrate on these efforts."
