Tangoe Appoints Jay Zager as Interim CFO

Tangoe (News - Alert), Inc. (NASDAQ: TNGO) ("Tangoe" or the "Company"), a leading global provider of IT Expense Management (ITEM) software and related services, today announced that Jay Zager will assume responsibility as the company's interim Chief Financial Officer, effective immediately, while the Company undertakes a search process for a permanent chief financial officer. Separately, Tangoe announced the departure of Gary Martino, former Chief Financial Officer of Tangoe. Mr. Martino resigned at the request of the Board, effective April 22, 2016.

The Board has initiated a disciplined search process for a permanent candidate and has engaged executive search firm Spencer Stuart in order to complete this process as expeditiously as possible.

On March 7, 2016, the Company announced that it will restate its financial statements for the years 2013 and 2014, all quarters therein, and the first three quarters of 2015, and that investors should no longer rely upon the Company's previously released financial statements for these time periods and all related reports and communications. That announcement was made based on information obtained from a review by the Company's Audit Committee of the Company's accounting and financial reporting. That review is continuing. The review has not identified additional accounting errors that the Company believes would materially change the aggregate size of the errors described on March 7, 2016. Because the review is ongoing, and because extensive audit procedures also are ongoing, there can be no assurance that additional errors will not be identified, and any such errors could be material. Although the Company cannot at this time estimate when it will complete he restatement and file its restated financial statements and its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, it is diligently pursuing completion of the restatement and intends to file the Form 10-K as soon as reasonably practicable

Mr. Zager has over thirty years of financial and operational experience, including numerous CFO positions, most recently as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Axcelis (News - Alert) Technologies (ACLS), from which he retired in 2013. Prior to this role, Mr. Zager served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at 3Com Corporation. Mr. Zager holds a Masters of Science degree in Finance and Strategic Planning from MIT (News - Alert) Sloan School of Management, and a Bachelors of Science degree in Operations Research from Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

"With his background, Jay Zager is well positioned to lead Tangoe's financial organization as we undergo the search process for a permanent CFO. We are pleased to have him on board," said Tangoe CEO Al Subbloie (News - Alert).
