QUEENSLAND, Australia, Sept. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Novagen Ingenium Inc (OTCQB: NOVZ) today announced that its subsidiary, Renegade Engine Company Pty Ltd. (“Renegade”), has expanded its operations to include traffic control services in Queensland, Australia. The new business line is expected to be revenue positive within three months.

Originally a custom bike manufacturer and retailer, Renegade was acquired by Novagen in 2012 and restructured to focus on the design and manufacture of the Renegade V-Twin Engine. Renegade’s retail operations were divested in 2013, but 4 custom motorcycles remained as dormant inventory.

Under an asset swap agreement dated August 1, 2014, Renegade exchanged one of the motorcycles for three utility vehicles outfitted for traffic control work. Leveraging off its experience in the Australian transportation industry, Renegade has since put the utility trucks into operation and acquired 2 more vehicles to meet the demand for traffic control services in Queensland, Australia.

Profits from the new business line will be reinvested in development of the Renegade engine. “This transaction has been a double-win for us,” reflected Sonny Nugent, President of Renegade, “we have reduced the carrying costs of dormant inventory while simultaneously establishing a revenue producing business that will support our engine operations and bring us closer to self-reliance.”

“While Novagen is focused on developing its engine properties for commercialization, we remain sensitive to the cost of financing, especially dilution,” said Micheal Nugent, CEO of Novagen. “We believe that reducing our reliance on financing by taking advantage of appropriate revenue producing opportunities is not just good for our shareholders – it’s just good business.”
