Guitammer's 2012 Sales to Australasia Market up Over 600% Compared to Full-Year 2011 Levels
- Proceeds from Recent Private Placement Providing Working Capital to Deliver Significant Core Business Growth as Total Sales Through August Already Exceed Full Year 2011 Level by 6% -
WESTERVILLE, Ohio, Sept. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Guitammer Company (OTC BB: GTMM), a leader in low frequency sound and creator of the award-winning line of ButtKicker®-brand low frequency audio transducers that provide an immersive "4D" entertainment experience for audiences, announced today that it recently shipped new products to Pagnian Imports, its distributor for the Australasian market to meet strong demand ahead of the 2012 holiday season. Reflecting this shipment, Guitammer's 2012 sales to date to Pagnian Imports already exceed the Company's full-year 2011 sales by over 600%.
The higher level of sales recorded year to date compared to the full year sales in 2011 reflect ongoing consumer acceptance of Guitammer's ButtKicker brand products combined with the Company's increasing level of working capital that has allowed it to secure inventory and ship products to meet the growing demand.
Hess Ghahramanian, owner of Pagnian Imports said, "We are proud and also excited for the opportunity to partner with The Guitammer Company to distribute their fantastic products in Australia and New Zealand. The demand for the ButtKicker products has been huge in Australia, in fact the demand has often exceeded our stock levels so Guitammer's increasing ability to have available inventory to meet our growing demand bodes well for sustainable sales growth in our markets."
Ghahramanian added, "Customers absolutely love the ButtKicker products as they add a whole new level of immersion to movies, gaming and music that people have never experienced before as reflected in the many glowing endorsements we receive such as: '"It's absolutely brilliant and have recommended it to so many people already"' (Chris Tander) and '"Blown away by this product, my sim always felt real but this takes it that next step" (Daniel J). "We love reading reviews like this from our customers," concluded Ghahramanian.
Increasing consumer demand and Guitammer's better working capital position following the recent successful private placement offering, which raised $1.6 million in new growth capital, are also reflected in total sales to date (through August 30, 2012) that already exceed full-year fiscal 2011 sales of $1.3 million by over 6% with more than one full quarter of operations still to go in the year.
Mark Luden, CEO of Guitammer stated, "Our recently completed private placement offering has further strengthened the Company's working capital position, which has helped to drive an increase in our inventory levels commensurate with growing customer demand for ButtKicker branded products. As a result we continue to grow revenues from our core business products as we are more favorably positioned to meet demand from key partners including Hess Ghahramanian and his team at Pagnian Imports. We are extremely appreciative of the efforts Hess has put into distributing our products and even more pleased that we are now able to ship him product levels to meet the significantly increasing demand. We look forward to continuing to expand this relationship going forward."
