TransNet Reports Results for Fiscal 2008 Second Quarter and Six-Month Period

BRANCHBURG, N.J., Feb. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TransNet Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: TRNT), a leading unified communications and IT sales and service company, today announced results for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 and six months ended December 31, 2007 . For the second quarter ended December 31, 2007 , the Corporation reported a net loss of $23,924 or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $182,262, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2007. Revenue was $7,275,397 for the fiscal 2008 quarter, as compared to $7,780,308 in the same period last year.

For the six months ended December 31, 2007 , the Corporation reported net income of $7,972, or $0.00 per diluted share, on revenue of $16,282,394. This compares to a net loss of $174,532, or $0.04 per diluted share, on revenue of $16,151,630 for the same period of the prior year.

Steven J. Wilk, President said "We were pleased with our 20% increase in services for the quarter ending December 31, 2007 . This increase is a result of our designing, implementing and supporting more sophisticated higher-end communications, surveillance and security related equipment to corporations, institutions of higher learning and local and state governmental agencies. Of particular importance is our increase in profit margins for these services from 22% in the quarter ended December 31, 2006 to 34% for the quarter ending December 31, 2007 . The increase in profit margins is due in part to our overall decrease in the use of subcontractors and associated increase in TransNet provided services. In addition, profit margins were positively impacted by an increase in our staffing business. We believe IT and engineering staffing opportunities will continue to grow as clients increase headcount in these two areas.

"For the quarter ending December 31, 2007 , we experienced a decrease in hardware sales to $3,532,053, as compared to $4,664,629 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 . This decrease is the result of an overall slowdown of purchases by local and state agencies as budgets are reviewed for approval. We believe that many of these budgets will be approved over the next few quarters and purchasing levels will increase, along with relevant services. Presently many state agencies are in critical need of communications and security infrastructure upgrades and we believe TransNet Corporation is in a perfect situation to benefit from any improvements in the future.

"During the quarter ending December 31, 2007 , we continued to experience changes in our business model, shifting from lower margin help desk related services to higher margin 'project-based' services. During the quarter, we were notified by our largest help desk client that it planned to significantly reduce our staff of technicians at their site during the March quarter and outsource those functions to a firm based in India as part of the client's goal to realize significant cost savings in lower-end services, even if the end result is a lower quality of service. Although this reduction will not affect us materially, we believe this trend of large corporations outsourcing their lower-end IT support needs to lower cost firms based in India will continue. This reinforces our continued focus of marketing and sales efforts upon medium sized corporations, institutions of higher learning, and state and local governmental agencies."
