Trans-Lux designs, manufactures, and sells large-format LED digital display systems and fixed-digit scoreboards. Customers include sports stadiums, financial institutions, transit hubs, casinos, and retail and entertainment venues. Trans-Lux operates through two divisions: Digital Product Sales, which covers one-time sales of displays and scoreboards, and Digital Product Lease and Maintenance, which provides recurring revenue through leasing and service contracts ranging from 30 days to 10 years. Trans-Lux manufactures its products at its facility in Hazelwood, Missouri, performing most assembly in-house, with LEDs and LED modules sourced from foreign suppliers. Trans-Lux uses a modular design approach, allowing it to configure displays across different sizes and applications. Trans-Lux sells directly through its own sales force and through independent dealers and distributors in North America. Sports-related sales are handled through its wholly owned subsidiary, FairPlay, a brand with over 90 years in the sports scoreboard market. For large installations, Trans-Lux often deploys dedicated on-site technicians, deepening customer relationships. Trans-Lux is a small company with roughly 43 employees.
