Fiscal 2004 compared to Fiscal 2003

For fiscal 2004, consolidated net sales were $92.6 million, a $14.4 million or 18.5% increase, compared to $78.2 million in 2003. The increase in net sales reflects ATM unit acquisitions made during the year including the acquisition of the eFunds ATM network, strong organic ATM growth generating over 1,000 net new ATM locations, higher ATM and photocopier transaction pricing and a positive impact from currency exchange fluctuations.

Cost of sales during 2004 was $50.2 million; up 15.1% from $43.6 million in 2003 reflecting an 80% increase in ATM sales and the negative impact from currency exchange fluctuations. Gross profit was $42.4 million, up 22.7% from $34.6 million in 2003.

Sales, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses were $28.6 million, a $4.8 million or 20.1% increase, compared to $23.8 million in 2003. The increase in these expenses reflects higher depreciation and amortization expense, stock offering and acquisition related expenses,

5

including transition costs relating to the eFunds ATM networks we acquired and a negative impact from currency exchange fluctuations.

Operating income increased $3.6 million or 35.8%, to $13.7 million in fiscal 2004 as compared to $10.1 million for the same period in 2003, reflecting the growth of the ATM business as well as improved operating efficiency in the photocopy business.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (See Attachment 3: Reconciliation of EBITDA to Net Income), or EBITDA, was $24.5 million in fiscal 2004 compared to $18.8 million for the prior year period, an increase of $5.7 million or 30.4%.

Income from continuing operations increased 35.0% to $8.3 million, compared to income of $6.2 million in fiscal 2003. Income available to common shareholders was $0.56 per diluted share in fiscal 2004 compared to $0.45 per diluted share in 2003.

Q4 2004 compared to Q4 2003

During Q4 2004, consolidated net sales were $26.6 million, a $6.2 million or 30.1%, increase compared to $20.5 million for the prior year period. The increase in net sales reflects the addition of approximately 15,700 ATM’s resulting from the acquisition of the eFunds ATM networks leading to approximately 200% more transactions during the quarter.

Cost of sales during Q4 2004 was $15.1 million, up 45.6% from $10.4 million in Q4 2003 a result of a 70% increase in sales for the quarter. Gross profit increased 14.2% to $11.5 million from $10.1 million last year driven by higher net sales.

SG&A expenses were $9.6 million, a $3.1 million or 47.1% increase, compared to $6.5 million in Q4 2003. The increase reflects transition expenses related to the eFunds acquisition, as well as higher depreciation and amortization and interest as outlined below.

EBITDA was $5.8 million in Q4 2004 as compared to $5.2 million for the prior year period, an increase of $0.6 million or 11.5% (See Attachment 3: Reconciliation of EBITDA to Net Income).

In Q4 2004, income from continuing operations decreased $1.6 million, from $2.3 million in Q4 2003. Income available to common shareholders was $0.02 per diluted share in Q4 2004 compared to $0.18 in Q4 2003.

On November 19, 2004 we acquired the ATM business of eFunds Corporation in the United States and Canada for $150 million cash (excluding fees, expenses and similar items) significantly increasing TRM’s ATM networks in both countries. In connection with the transaction, TRM entered into a five-year agreement pursuant to which eFunds provides ongoing ATM management services (MSA) for the acquired networks. During the fourth quarter we incurred certain non-recurring expenses of approximately $2.0 million associated with closing the transaction, implementation of the MSA and transition of the eFunds ATM networks. This $2.0 million is comprised of approximately $1.4 million in SG&A expenses related to staff reductions and non-capitalized closing costs along with approximately $0.6 million in

6

operational expenses associated primarily with armored car transition and vault cash replacement. Subsequent to year-end, and reflecting progress with integration, approximately $2.6 million in yearly overhead reduction was implemented, with remaining reductions pending in the amount of $1.0 million. Additional recurring expenses that occurred in Q4 2004 and were significantly higher than Q3 2004 included accelerated amortization of approximately $1.0 million related to the eFunds acquisition and $0.9 million in additional interest expense which was primarily related to the $120 million loan utilized to fund the eFunds ATM networks acquisition (interest rate of 6.4% in Q4 2004).

For the full year ended December 31, 2004, ATM operations produced net sales of $50.5 million, an increase of $16.0 million or 46.4%, as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase in net sales reflects ATM unit acquisitions made during the year including the acquisition of the eFunds ATM portfolio and strong organic ATM growth. Full year 2004 ATM gross profit increased $6.9 million or 43.2%, to $23.0 million. Operating income increased $2.7 million or 56.1%, to $7.5 million.

During Q4 2004, ATM net sales reached $16.8 million, an increase of $7.8 million or 86.7%, as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase in net sales reflects strong organic ATM growth, and significantly more ATM units overall, which led to approximately a 200% increase in the number of transactions during the quarter. Q4 2004 ATM gross profit increased $3.3 million or 71.7%, to $7.9 million and operating income increased $0.8 million or 50.0%, to $2.4 million.

For the full year ended December 31, 2004, photocopier operations produced net sales of $42.2 million, a decrease of $1.6 million or 3.6%, as compared to the same period in 2003. Full year 2004 photocopier gross profit increased $0.9 million or 5.0%, to $19.4 million and operating income increased $2.8 million or 52.0%, to $8.1 million. The increase in operating income reflects similar year over year net sales results but a significantly lower cost of sales, related to a 30% decrease in number of copies.

Photocopier net sales were $9.8 million during Q4 2004, down $1.6 million or 14.0%, as compared to the same period in 2003. The decrease in net sales for Q4 2004 reflects a reduction in deployed units and lower transaction volumes (partially offset by higher copy pricing). Q4 2004 photocopier gross profit decreased $1.9 million or 34.5%, to $3.6 million and operating income decreased $1.5 million to $0.4 million. The decline in operating income was primarily the result of $0.7 million in year-end 2004 employee performance bonuses paid out to our service technicians.

Balance Sheet:

The Company’s long-term debt, consisting of commercial loans and capital leases, increased from $9.8 million at December 31, 2003 to $121.8 million at December 31, 2004. This increase in debt is a result of a $120 million term loan related to the eFunds acquisition.

Shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2004 increased by $62.8 million to $111.7 million or 128.6%, as compared to $48.9 million for the prior year, due in large part to completion of a common stock offering that closed in September 2004.

Preferred Dividends:

We accrued $1.33 million of Series A preferred stock dividends during fiscal 2004. On March 5, 2005, we announced that all of our preferred shares had converted into common shares in accordance with the terms of the preferred shares. As a result beginning in Q2 2005, no additional preferred dividends will be paid.
