Star Entertainment Signs to Acquire Mobile Music Company with $10 Million Asset Valuation: Projects $231 Million Revenue by 5th Year
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Star Entertainment Group, Inc. (OTC: SETY.PK) today announced the signing of a Letter of Intent to acquire Tranzistor Systems Inc., a company engaged in mobile music entertainment products and services including internet radio, fan applications, and eCommerce products.
Tranzistor's product and technology have been assessed in excess of $10 million and additionally have a number of products and services under development. The Company projects Tranzistor annual revenues to reach $87.6 million by 2014 and in excess of $231 million by 2016, as Tranzistor's service set expands internationally.
Tranzistor's product line includes mobile internet radio combined with fan-based games and music applications that are wrapped around a sophisticated loyalty program. An estimated 89 million Americans listened to online radio last month, and 56% have listened to an online AM/FM station, or pure play internet radio station. That is a number that should continue to grow for the next several years . . . a number that is up from 69 million monthly listeners a year ago. In fact, the online audience has doubled every 5 years since 2001, according to Arbitron / Edison Research.
The transaction to be valued in excess of $10,000,000 will be purchased through an equity-building issuance of Preferred Stock and will create no debt for the Company or require the issuance of Common Stock. The Company is currently completing its due diligence and conducting a complete technology and software audit and accessing the planned service rollout schedule. It is anticipated that the closing of the transaction will be completed within the next 30 days.
The Company will soon release its new product and marketing web sites and roll-out schedule.
The preferred share acquisition, which is anticipated to close within the next thirty (30) days, will coincide with a complete change of operational focus and an entire replacement of management, including officers and directors.
Additionally, the Company has commenced preparation of disclosure and financial information required by the OTC Disclosure Service and expects its trading status upgrade to "Current Information" in a timely fashion.
