Radiant Logistics Announces Select Preliminary Unaudited Financial Results

BELLEVUE, Wash., Sept. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Radiant Logistics, Inc. (NYSE American: RLGT), a third-party logistics and multimodal transportation services company, today announced select preliminary unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2020, and that it has filed a Form 12b-25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, providing the Company with a permissible 15-day extension for filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2020 (the "Form 10-K"). The Company currently expects that it will timely file its Form 10-K on or before the expiration of the extension period and will hold its quarterly earnings call concurrent with that filing.

In its Form 12b-25 filing, the Company stated that the Form 10-K could not be filed within the prescribed due date as the Company was unable to timely finalize its financial results without unreasonable expense or effort.  In the filing, the Company attributed the delays to, among others, circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated work-from-home strategies being deployed by the Company, as well as the Company's inability to timely interface with its auditors and third-party tax and valuation advisors critical to the audit process, principally caused by difficulties inherent in the remote workforce protocols adopted by the Company in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The financial results presented below for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020, reflect preliminary estimates of the Company's results of operations as of the date of this press release.  The Company's independent registered public accounting firm has not audited or reviewed, and does not express an opinion with respect to, this preliminary data.  These estimates may be subject to change upon the completion of the reporting process and audit of the Company's financial statements, and actual results may vary from these estimates.  The preliminary unaudited results for the Company's fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2020 are as follows:

Financial Highlights ? Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 (Preliminary and Unaudited)

• Revenues estimated at a record $275.5 million for the fourth fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to revenues of $204.6 million for the comparable prior year period.
• Net revenue margin estimated at $50.1 million for the fourth fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to net revenue margin of $58.5 million for the comparable prior year period.

CEO Bohn Crain comments on preliminary results, the impact of COVID-19 and the delayed filing of the Company's 10-K

"I'm very proud of the Radiant Network and our collective response to challenges presented by the COVID pandemic," said Bohn Crain, Founder and CEO of Radiant Logistics. "Since late March we have been focusing on delivering against four key objectives: ensuring the health and safety of our employees; providing supply chain continuity for our customers, operating partners and carriers; protecting the economic security of our people to the greatest extent possible; and taking the steps necessary to mitigate the impacts of the slowing economy on our own business. Although the pandemic had a substantial negative impact on many of the industry verticals and customers that we serve, we are proud to be playing an active role in the fight against COVID-19: delivering personal protective equipment ("PPE"), food and beverage, consumer goods, technology and other essential products for our customers across North America and around the world. Our work, particularly in support of the movement of PPE, has helped us to achieve record results with an estimated $13.1 million in Adjusted EBITDA on $275.5 million in revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2020."

Crain continued: "As a Board and a leadership team we take our public reporting responsibilities very seriously and are very disappointed with the delay in the filing of our 10-K. We all continue to be impacted by COVID, and in sometimes not so obvious ways. We are working hard and expect to complete our filing within the time provided with the 12b-25 extension and will hold our quarterly earnings call concurrent with the ultimate filing of our 10-K. In addition, we are also taking steps to ensure that the work-from-home strategies being deployed in response to COVID by Radiant and its advisors do to not impede our ability to meet our reporting obligations in the future."

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
RADIANT LOGISTICS, INC.

Reconciliation of Total Revenues to Net Revenue Margin, Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders
to Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stock, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
(unaudited)

As used in this report, Net Revenue Margin, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Net Revenue Margin, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are presented herein because they are important metrics used by management to evaluate and understand the performance of the ongoing operations of Radiant's business. For Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, management uses a 24.5% tax rate to calculate the provision for income taxes before preferred dividend requirement to normalize Radiant's tax rate to that of its competitors and to compare Radiant's reporting periods with different effective tax rates. In addition, in arriving at Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, the Company adjusts for certain non-cash charges and significant items that are not part of regular operating activities. These adjustments include income taxes, depreciation and amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration, transition costs, lease termination costs, acquisition related costs, litigation costs, amortization of debt issuance costs, and issuance costs for preferred stock redemption.

We commonly refer to the term "net revenue margin" when commenting about our Company and the results of operations. Net revenue margin is a Non-GAAP measure calculated as revenues less directly related operations and expenses attributed to the Company's services. We believe net revenue margin are a better measurement than are total revenues when analyzing and discussing the effectiveness of our business and is used as a portion of a key metric the Company uses to discuss its progress.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of income and does not include the effects of preferred stock dividends, redemption of preferred stock, interest and taxes, and excludes the "non-cash" effects of depreciation and amortization on long-term assets. Companies have some discretion as to which elements of depreciation and amortization are excluded in the EBITDA calculation. We exclude all depreciation charges related to technology and equipment, and all amortization charges (including amortization of leasehold improvements). We then further adjust EBITDA to exclude changes in fair value of contingent consideration, expenses specifically attributable to acquisitions, transition and lease termination costs, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, extraordinary items, share-based compensation expense, litigation expenses unrelated to our core operations, MM&D start-up costs and other non-cash charges. While management considers EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA useful in analyzing our results, it is not intended to replace any presentation included in our consolidated financial statements.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, represent a useful method of assessing the performance of our operating activities, as they reflect our earnings trends without the impact of certain non-cash charges and other non-recurring charges. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement the GAAP financial information by providing additional insight regarding results of operations to allow a comparison to other companies, many of whom use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. However, these non-GAAP financial measures will not be defined in the same manner by all companies and may not be comparable to other companies. Net Revenue Margin, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any of the consolidated statements of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as an indication of Radiant's operating performance or liquidity.
