Titan Wireless Gains Additional 6,000 Locations to Already Substantial Distribution Footprint Reaching More than 70,000 Locations
Oct 12, 2007
Titan Global Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:TTGL), a high-growth diversified holding company, announced that Titan Wireless, a division of Titan Communications, entered into a wireless sales distribution agreement with a national retail chain to distribute more than 36,000 Ready Mobile-branded PCS handsets and expand the Company's nationwide distribution system by an additional 6,000 locations. The agreement further validates the Company's high-growth business strategy focused on generating revenues from trusted wireless brand products through a retail distribution system that now reaches more than 70,000 locations. For competitive reasons, Titan isn't identifying the national retail chain.
Titan Wireless, through its well-known brands Ready Mobile, Mojo Mobile, Picante Movil and Bravo, is a leading provider of cost-effective prepaid wireless offerings through its mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) agreement with Sprint PCS. Titan Wireless completed its purchase of the assets of Ready Mobile, LLC, a national Sprint MVNO generating $12 million in annual revenues, in May, 2007.
"Titan Wireless continues to add strategic retailers that leverage the advantages inherent in our product offerings," said Bryan Chance, President and Chief Executive Officer of Titan Global Holdings. "Fred Haumesser and his sales team have done a brilliant job with our wireless products and Glen Jasper has integrated our wireless division and expanded our base of operations to meet this growing demand. We will continue to create value from our wireless division for our shareholders in fiscal year 2008."
Titan recently issued revenue guidance for fiscal 2008 that includes Titan Wireless' expected $23.5 million contribution to the Company's stated overall revenue guidance of $747 million for fiscal 2008. The positive revenue impact of the Company's agreement with this national retail chain isn't reflected in this guidance.
"The planned addition of this national retail chain is very exciting for us," said Dennis Henderson, President of Titan Wireless. "This milestone win for the company complements our national retail footprint, making it easier for our customers to find Ready Mobile handsets and airtime. We look forward to providing these new customers with high quality, reliable wireless communications solutions."
