PART I.
REGISTRANT INFORMATION

   
Full Name of Registrant Transmation, Inc.
 
Former Name if Applicable  
 

   
Address of Principal Executive Office (Street and Number) 10 Vantage Point Drive

PART II.
RULES 12b-25 (b) AND (c)

      If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate.)  

      (a)   The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
 
    (b)   The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and
 
      (c)   The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

 

PART III.
NARRATIVE

      State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

      The Registrant recently completed the sale of two of its non-core business units. The associated negotiations, financials and legal due diligence subsumed management’s time (including a significant portion of the finance and administrative function of the Registrant) throughout the third quarter. The finance and administrative function of the Registrant’s business, which is significantly involved in the filing of the Registrant’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, did not have sufficient resources to devote to the 10-Q as a result of the sale of the Registrant’s non-core business. Consequently, the Registrant cannot file its Form 10-Q in its entirety without unreasonable effort or expense.

PART IV.
OTHER INFORMATION

      (1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification.

      (3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or operation thereof?
