Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On September 26, 2006, we announced a plan under which we will concentrate our efforts and
resources on growth-oriented opportunities in certain markets where the Company has strong market
positions. These opportunities include printer sales in the casino, gaming, lottery, and banking
markets, as well as printer supplies and services provided by our TransAct Services Group (“TSG”).
As part of this plan, we will remain engaged in the point-of-sale (“POS”) market, but will reduce
our sales, marketing and engineering expenses associated with this business. As a result of the
cost reduction actions, we expect to incur a total charge in the third quarter of 2007 of
approximately $150,000, primarily for severance resulting from the termination of several
employees. We expect to realize cost savings of approximately $600,000 in 2008 as a result of the
changes.
On September 26, 2007, TransAct Technologies Incorporated issued a press release announcing the
action taken above. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
