CIG, TXP Agree to Merge Print E-mail
Written by Chelsey Drysdale   
Thursday, 21 August 2008
RICHARDSON, TXTXP Corp. and Cambridge Industry Group have signed a memorandum to merge, the firms said today. The merger reportedly would form the world's largest ODM and services business focused on fiber-to-the-home equipment. The combined company would also have the industry's widest family of ONT solutions.
 
TXP, which reported a second-quarter net loss of $10 million earlier this week, generated approximately $11 million in revenue in 2007, up about 24% year-over-year. CIG generated approximately $10.2 million in revenue, up 81% compared to 2006.
 
The merger is expected to close before year-end. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
 
TXP is an EMS and ODM firm. Shanghai-based CIG designs and builds FTTH equipment.
