NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Apr 10, 2013) - Fusion (
Since the completion of the acquisition of NBS, Fusion has realized numerous synergies and financial benefits. As of March 29, 2013 the Company had already achieved approximately $1 million in annualized cost savings, representing approximately half of anticipated savings through year end. The majority of the remainder of cost savings is expected to be realized by the end of the current fiscal quarter.
"The acquisition of NBS, with its proprietary cloud communications platform, robust network, advanced back office systems and experienced team of professionals, has proven to be a significant asset in supporting our organic growth plan while providing a strong platform for future acquisitions," stated Matthew Rosen, Chief Executive Officer of Fusion. "In addition to providing Fusion with numerous operating synergies, the fully integrated business has already seen significant increases in the amount of new business being contracted. The acquisition of NBS has allowed us to leverage our direct sales effort and extensive distribution network, facilitating the continued upsale of services to existing customers and accelerating the acquisition of new business. We believe that the combination of new revenue generated from the NBS Business Services division and the cost efficiencies generated from our considerable synergies will enable us to become EBITDA positive in the near future."
