Combined, the four partnerships we signed in the quarter represent a potential market opportunity of 406 million airline passenger trips annually, 59.2 million of which we have already secured under agreement. With our growing traction in the Asia-Pacific region, we believe we remain on track to achieve our target of 20-25 percent airline market share, or between 140 and 175 million annual passenger trips under agreement, by year end.”

Mr. Douramakos continued: “We believe our OnTouch™ merchandising platform offers significant long-term growth potential for us as well as the airline industry, and we are starting to see greater adoption among our airline customers. We are at various stages with 15 merchandising pilot programs, spanning four of our six OnTouch™ categories. This is up from four pilot programs last quarter. As such, while we remain focused on carefully managing our costs, we are further investing in our merchandising initiatives in terms of people, offerings and technology. Our goal for fiscal 2010 is to launch additional pilots while also converting existing ones into full rollouts, thus positioning us to enter fiscal 2011 with a growing OnTouch™ merchandising monthly revenue run rate.”
