HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., Sept. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- PGMI, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: PGMI) announces preliminary revenue numbers for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The Company's 2006 fiscal year showed net revenues after payout of $22,696,178 on gross wagers of $187,972,786. This represents revenue growth of 5.4% compared to the previous year. The revenue after payout improved from 11.5% of wagers in 2005 to 12.1% of wagers in 2006. Operating income for the 2006 fiscal year increased by $3,422,560 to $1,685,725 when compared with an operating loss in the 2005 fiscal year. The Company did however have a one time, non-cash, merger related expense of $2,333,683 that will offset the operating income. This expense was the result of stock issued as part of the cost of going public and a non-recurring event. The Company is filing an 8K with these estimates and the audited 10KSB filing will be available in the next few weeks.
Shinichi Kanemoto, PGMI, Inc President, said, "PGMI was able to achieve revenue growth and improved efficiency during our very challenging first year as a public company. Our operating income shows significant improvement. The increase in revenues as a function of wagers, reflects the effects of our two newest stores being integrated into PGMI as more mature operations. Construction is underway at two new locations that will be added to our 13 current locations by the end of the 2006 calendar year. PGMI is committed to being at the forefront of the effort to make pachinko more relevant to the modern lifestyle of its patrons.
