Business Editors and Technology Writers ELMSFORD, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 8, 2002--Lewis S. Schiller, Chairman and CEO of The FINX Group, Inc. (OTCBB:FXGP) reported today that The FINX Group has completed acquisition of a controlling interest in Trans Global Services, Inc. (OTCBB:TGSI). The transaction involved a combination of cash and FXGP common stock. Under FXGP's planned restructuring, TGSI will be included in its Defense Group of companies. TGSI provides the services of scientists, engineers, designers and a full spectrum of technology personnel to supplement a client's technical work force or fill its technology needs. The company effectively "Transports Technology Through People," Schiller said. It currently serves many commercial and military aircraft manufacturers in the United States along with other Fortune 100 companies from its offices in New York, Orlando, Phoenix, Arlington, TX and Renton, WA. TGSI's revenues for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2001 are expected to reach $27 million, an 18% increase over the previous year. Anticipating recovery of the economy by mid-year 2002, along with expected increased spending in the military aircraft and missile sectors, the company looks forward to continued growth in F/Y 2002, according to Schiller. Schiller was formerly Chairman and CEO of TGSI. In 1997, his last year in that post, the company had revenues of $76 million. Schiller said, "I am confident that the record revenue of 1997 will be exceeded through internal growth and implementation of the new acquisition strategies we have in place for the year ending Dec. 31, 2002." --30--brm/se* CONTACT: Stock Communications Group, Inc.
