MGM Wireless September 4C quarter results.

October 13, 2010

South Australian-based school attendance and communications group MGM Wireless Ltd is pleased to announce financial results, company advancements and customer growth for the September 2010 Quarter.

Revenues

Revenue for the Quarter was $ 474,931 as compared to $ 343,261 for the same period last year, an increase of 38%.

Sales

Sales for the Quarter was $ 303,669 as compared to $ 491,685 for the same period last year, a decrease of 38%. The decrease is attributable to the timing of raising of sales invoices and therefore a direct comparison to previous quarter is not reflective of business performance.

Customer Growth

  • Contracted and operational Schools This Quarter September 30, 2010 580
  • Contracted and operational Schools Last Quarter June 30, 2010 575

The quarter school numbers and sales results were affected by several aspects of including the commencement of the New Zealand Government contract rollout, where the company has currently 45 NZ school contracts which are in various stages of implementation and not yet operational – and therefore do not appear in the Customer Growth numbers above. The delay has been caused by factors including finalisation of product development and NZ government certification. Product development is in its final stages and the certification process has commenced.

Closing cash balances were also adversely impacted due to the non-receipt of cash payments for the 45 NZ schools contracted, as well as a number of significant one-off annual payments in the September quarter. The company expects to commence receiving cash receipts from NZ in the current quarter.

"The September quarter is the quietest period of the year – with school leaders focusing on academic activities . Despite this, the company is pleased with the quarter's results – which considering one-off extraneous factors, show a continued growth momentum." said Mark Fortunatow, Chairman and CEO of MGM Wireless.

New Product Innovations and Product Release

The company is pleased to also announce today the release of significant new innovation and products today. New products – released under the company's existing School News Channel brand – will deliver new revenue opportunity for the company and, whilst very suitable for the Australian market, were primarily designed for the US market. The company will commence selling these new products as of today in Australia, and in the US via a social media sales and marketing strategy in the new year. Full details are provided in a separate announcement released today. MGM believes these new innovations will play a strong role in achieving key objectives of the company to drive revenue and profit growth.

New Zealand Update

To date, the company has signed 45 schools in New Zealand which is now within 8 sales of reaching the next largest NZ provider - who has been in the market for over 2 years. At this stage this number is less than expected, however a number of reasons interrupted marketing efforts including industrial strike action by teachers, swine flu outbreak and school holidays. With the first MGM NZ schools commencing operations soon – the company expects uptake to increase.

Full Year Result Profit Guidance.

For the full 2011 year, the company currently expects to achieve a similar – or better trading result compared to the 2010 year, and in keeping with continuous disclosure requirements, the company will keep shareholders and investors updated on an ongoing basis. The company would also like to remind shareholders of seasonal factors – that trading conditions in the second half of the financial year are normally stronger than in the first half.
