CAMPBELL, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 17, 2015) - Inventergy Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVT) ("Inventergy"), today announced operational restructuring and process improvements for the product-based businesses of its wholly-owned subsidiary, eOn Communications Systems, Inc. ("ECS"), to strategically position the company to increase earnings, reduce costs, improve cash flow and build shareholder value. ECS is managed by its President Stephen Swartz.
The ECS business has three product/service lines:
a) A royalty bearing agreement with a third party for use of a private branch exchange (PBX) business which they had purchased from Inventergy's predecessor eOn Communications Corporation ("ECC");
b) A valued-added reseller business of biometric security and access control products; and
c) A new business that provides outsourced sales, marketing and technical support services to business partners in the security products and services industry.
Additionally, as part of the reorganization, ECS announced it has terminated a legacy business that provided distribution services of facility security and access control products. Inventergy inherited this business as part of its June 6, 2014 reverse merger with ECC. In 2014, this legacy business had net operating losses of approximately $35,000 per month. Terminating this legacy business and selling off the remaining inventory and accounts receivables also netted approximately $200,000 in cash for Inventergy. The resources from this legacy business have been redeployed to ECS's biometric security and access control product line. This business has recently completed its value-add product improvements and these products are now ready for shipment. As a result of all of these changes, Inventergy expects the ECS subsidiary to be profitable and cash positive in Q2 2015.
Joe Beyers, Chairman and CEO of Inventergy, said, "We believe the restructuring of ECS supports our corporate growth strategy and enhances Inventergy's business by adding additional revenue streams to our core licensing programs. Stephen Swartz has been instrumental in turning ECS into a business with increased operational profit potential. With Stephen at the helm of ECS, it allows the Inventergy management team to focus our energies on driving our core patent licensing, monetization and patent asset acquisition initiatives."
