Sep 07, 2007 - Titan Global Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:TTGL), a high growth diversified holding company, today announced that Titan Wireless, a division of Titan Communications, entered into a wireless sales distribution agreement with Road Ranger Travel Centers to expand the Company's nationwide distribution system by an additional 25 locations in the Midwest. The agreement further validates the Company's high-growth business model focused on generating revenues from trusted wireless brand products through a retail distribution system that reaches more than 65,000 locations.
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.
Earlier this week Titan issued revenue guidance for fiscal 2008. Titan Wireless is expected to contribute $23.5 million to Titan's stated overall revenue guidance of $747 Million for fiscal 2008.
"We weighed several options for creating a competitive mix of prepaid wireless handsets for our customers," said Doug Parker, Senior Director of Marketing for Road Ranger. "Approximately one third of our locations are travel centers and we have several stores that are on or near a college campus. We felt Titan Wireless offered the most flexible program to address the calling needs for different consumers."
"We are excited to provide prepaid wireless solutions to Road Ranger," said Dennis Henderson, President of Titan Wireless. "Our handset offerings and rate plans are ideally positioned to allow Road Ranger to offer its customers an outstanding value. We look forward to being a significant partner for Doug and his team as they continue to drive revenues and profits in the vibrant prepaid category."
"Dennis and his team continue to demonstrate the value proposition of Titan Global Holdings," said Bryan Chance, President and Chief Executive Officer of Titan Global Holdings. "Our business unit leaders continue to position the company for success in the markets we serve. We eagerly look forward to the additions of Appalachian Oil Company and USA Detergents as well. We will continue to add value with our existing growing businesses and new acquisitions."
