Transnational Automotive Group, Inc. (TAUG) (OTCBB: TAMG) today announced financial results for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2008, including a sharp increase in revenue and a reduced net loss. Revenue for fiscal 2008 increased to $8.2 million from $1.0 million in last year. The net loss for fiscal 2008 was reduced to $7.3 million, or $0.16 per share, from a net loss of $8.5 million, or $0.20 per share, last year. TAUG achieved gross profit of $750,000 for fiscal 2008, compared with a loss of $185,000 in the prior year period. Total operating expenses for fiscal 2008 were reduced slightly to $5.4 million from $5.6 million in the prior fiscal year. TAUG, which provides public bus transportation services, began operations in Cameroon in September 2006 with the introduction of LeBus in the capital city of Yaound�, followed by the launch of LeCar in December 2006, which links Cameroon�s two leading commercial and population centers, Yaound� and Douala. In mid December 2007, the company introduced a new six-vehicle LeBus service line in the university district of Yaound�, which already has the city�s highest ridership, transporting approximately 30,000 passengers per day. �We continue to make solid operational progress, as our ridership steadily increases, advancing threefold since operations began, and our presence in Cameroon creates meaningful social and economic change,� said Seid Sadat, TAUG�s chief financial officer, who also is serving as interim chief executive officer. �From a financial perspective, fiscal 2008 was the company�s first full year of operations in Cameroon. It is gratifying that revenues are showing consistent increases, operating expenses decreased somewhat despite significant revenue gains, and our net loss has been reduced. �Based on our successes thus far, the solid relationships we are building with government leaders, and the need in this region for professional transportation services, we believe solid growth opportunities exist, both in Cameroon as well as other sub-Saharan African nations,� Sadat added. About Transnational Automotive Group Founded with the goal to improve millions of lives through its economic and social development projects, TAUG currently employs more than 700 people in Cameroon. TAUG established and currently is operating the country�s government supported mass transportation urban bus system, LeBus, in the capital city of Yaound� and an inter-city, rural bus system, LeCar, between Yaound� and Douala, Cameroon�s two leading commercial and population centers, with plans for several new urban and inter-city route openings. The company has been invited by a number of Sub-Saharan African governments and business communities to undertake operations in transportation and energy-related programs.
