Now I'd like to pass the call over to Radiant's Founder and CEO, Von Crain. Sir, the floor is yours.

Speaker 1

Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining in on today's call. Our results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 continue to reflect the difficult freight markets being experienced by the entire industry as well as our own operations. This extended period of weak freight demand combined with excess capacity continues to negatively impact not only our current results, but also the year over year comparison to our record results for prior year period. With that said, we saw a very difficult January and then steadily improvements throughout the quarter and we expect to report sequential quarterly improvement moving forward as markets find their way to more sustainable and normalized levels.

Speaker 1

Notwithstanding the tough year over year comparisons, we continue to deliver meaningfully positive results and have generated $22,100,000 in adjusted EBITDA and $16,000,000 in net cash for operations for the 9 months ended March 31, 2024. In addition, we continue to enjoy a strong balance sheet, finishing the quarter with approximately $31,200,000 of cash on hand and nothing drawn on our $200,000,000 credit facility. As previously discussed, we believe we are well positioned to navigate to these slower freight markets as we find our way back to more normalized market conditions. At the same time, we remain focused on delivering profitable growth through a combination of organic and acquisition initiatives and thoughtfully relevering our balance sheet through a combination of agent station conversions, synergistic tuck in acquisitions and stock buybacks. Through this approach, we believe over time, we will continue to deliver meaningful value for our shareholders, operating partners and the end customers that we serve.

Speaker 1

In this regard, we are very excited about our recent agent station conversions with the acquisition of Delray in October of 2023 and the select businesses in February of 2024, which will combine to solidify our offering to support the cruise line industry in South Florida, along with our most recent acquisition of Minnesota based Viking Worldwide in April of 2024. We launched Radian in 2006 with the goal of partnering with logistics entrepreneurs who would benefit from our unique value proposition and the built in strategy available to the entrepreneurs participating in our network. We believe these three transactions are representative of a broader pipeline of opportunities inherent in our agent based network, and we look forward to supporting other strategic operating partners when they are ready to begin their transition from an agency to company owned location. With that said, I'll now turn it over to Todd Macomber, our CFO, to walk through the details of our financial results and then we'll open it up for some Q and A.

Speaker 2

Thanks, Paul, and good afternoon, everyone. Today, we will be discussing our financial results, including adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA for the 3 9 months ended March 31, 2024. For the 3 months ended March 31, 2024, we reported a net loss attributable to Radiant Logistics of $703,000 on $184,600,000 of revenues or $0.02 per basic and fully diluted share. For the 3 months ended March 31, 2023, we reported net income attributable to Radian Logistics of $4,183,000 on $244,200,000 of revenues or $0.09 per basic and $0.08 per fully diluted share. This represents a decrease of approximately $4,886,000 of net income over the comparable prior year period.

Speaker 2

For adjusted net income, we reported 3,580 $6,000 for the 3 months ended March 31, 2024 compared to adjusted net income of $8,221,000 for the 3 months ended March 31, 2023. This represents a decrease of approximately $4,635,000

Speaker 3

or approximately 56.4%.

Speaker 2

For adjusted EBITDA, we reported $5,208,000 for the 3 months ended March 31, 2024 compared to adjusted EBITDA of $11,560,000 for the 3 months ended March 31, 2023. This represents a decrease of approximately $6,352,000 or approximately 54.9%. Moving along to the 9 months. For the 9 months ended March 31, 2024, we reported net income attributable to Radian Logistics of $2,904,000 on $596,400,000 of revenues or $0.06 per basic and fully diluted share. For the 3 months ended March 31, we reported net income attributable to Radiant Logistics of $17,452,000 on $853,300,000 of revenues or $0.36 per basic and $0.35 per fully diluted share.

Speaker 2

This represents a decrease of approximately $14,548,000 over the comparable prior year period or 83.4 percent. For adjusted net income, we reported $15,632,000 for the 9 months ended March 31, 2024 compared to adjusted net income of $32,845,000 for the 9 months ended March 31, 2023. This represents a decrease of approximately $17,213,000 or approximately 52.4%. For adjusted EBITDA, we reported $22,083,000 for the 9 months ended March 31, 2024 compared to adjusted EBITDA of $46,434,000 for the 9 months ended March 31, 2023. This represents a decrease of approximately $24,351,000 or approximately 52.4%.

Speaker 2

With that, I will turn the call back over to our moderator to facilitate any Q and A from our call.

Operator

Thank you. The floor is now open for And our first question comes from Mark Argentino from Lake Street Capital. Go ahead, Mark.

Speaker 4

Hey, Bonnie, Todd. Just any kind of color on the environment right now? I know it continues to be a little tough out there, but you've seen any kind of green shoots out there, any sectors that are maybe starting to perform a little better across the platform?

Speaker 1

Thanks, Mark. This is Bowen. I guess I would start by kind of reiterating the prepared remarks, which was January started off really, really slow. And we have seen kind of sequential February was better than January and March was better than February and kind of early indications April is continuing to build on that trend. So I think we're effectively calling the bottom in terms of the slowness here.

Speaker 1

Quarter ended March is our seasonally slowest quarter as well. So we would expect prospective quarters to work their way back to more normalized levels. What I think kind of our world is similar to the others that calls that you might have participated in. The international has been soft, but that seems to be improving. So we're seeing a little bit of light, I guess, in terms of the international or the performance of the international services within the solution set.

Speaker 1

Canada, who typically is really, really shine bright, had their own struggles with the quarter ended March, but they're making meaningfully progress there. Probably one of our most challenged areas has been in the intermodal space. But even that too, we're very optimistic of the trajectory of what we're doing in Chicago with our bimodal initiative. And for those that might remember, we, on a greenfield basis, opened a truck brokerage capability in Kansas City kind of in the wake of Yellow's bankruptcy that we're pretty excited about. We've got a number of things working.

Speaker 1

If anything, I think what I would emphasize is notwithstanding the really tough market, we think we're in really good shape in terms of financial flexibility and no debt. And so we're kind of continuing to lean into this whole environment and try to identify opportunities to take advantage of kind of in this market environment because while the numbers are not where anybody wants them to be on a relative basis, we think we're in really good shape and excited to continue to execute our strategy. And we've done as I had kind of telegraphed on some of our earlier calls, we see a big opportunity emerging in the conversion of our agent stations to company on stores. We've all talked about kind of the gray tail and kind of the inherent pipeline of tuck in acquisitions that we would expect to come to us over time and that's manifesting itself and we're happy and proud to be able to support our operating partners when they're ready to do that for us to kind of meet them at that intersection and support them in that transition. So everything is playing out kind of the way we would have hoped or expected.

Speaker 1

We're just unfortunately in this kind of a bit of a global freight recession right now. But I'm pretty optimistic that the kind of the ultimate worst is behind us and we'll kind of be rebuilding from here and have an opportunity to hopefully get some things done kind of more strategically in an environment where a lot of people are handcuffed.

Speaker 4

That's helpful. And then I know obviously the balance sheet is in great shape and happily so, but at the same time any thoughts on incrementally getting a little more aggressive here or you just kind of whatever comes to you, comes to you and it is what it is at this point in terms of deploying capital?

Speaker 1

Yes. Well, we've always been or I like to view or think of ourselves as always being good kind of disciplined allocators of capital. So we've never chased deals and we're not going to be chasing deals in this environment. But I think kind of our view about kind of valuation and structure, that kind of work for us. I think the market is coming to us a little bit, if you will.

Speaker 1

So I think we'll have more of an opportunity to get things done in a way that makes sense to us in terms of value and structure. And we expect to be active in our stock buyback moving forward. We weren't particularly active this quarter knowing that it was going to be a soft quarter and our stock is thinly traded and we didn't want to kind of step into it, if you will, so to speak. But kind of as the trading window opens up and all that type of stuff, we would expect to kind of be out there in the market beginning again to reengage in our buyback. So kind of continuing along the course we've been describing is kind of our baseline plan is a balanced approach of stock buybacks and these smaller tuck in type of acquisitions.

Speaker 1

And if something larger comes along, we'll certainly look at it, but it will have to kind of meet these fundamental criteria that we look at as we think about how we're deploying our capital.

Speaker 4

Great. Appreciate the color and good luck. Thanks guys.

Operator

And our next And our next question comes from Kevin Gainey from Thompson Davis. Go ahead, Kevin.

Speaker 5

Hey, Yvonne, Todd. Good afternoon. Maybe just to kind of delve a little bit deeper into the question about end markets, how are you what are you guys hearing from maybe the manufacturing side or the retail side or what are you hearing from those customers as you kind of roll into the next quarter and maybe the back end of the year?

Speaker 1

I guess I'll go first and then Todd can add in as appropriate. As historically been the case when we're in these types of environments, we're certainly not losing customers. Our customers have just been shipping less in this environment. There was a lot of talk historically about COVID safety stocks and excess inventories and kind of chewing through those inventories. And so as we think about kind of the international component, I think that is effectively playing out and that we're starting to see some increased volumes and opportunities at the margin on our international shipments.

Speaker 1

Some of the global conflict going on that's acted at least as a temporary catalyst on price in terms of ocean and airfreight that we're enjoying. At the same time, the underlying trend of near soaring and what's going on in Mexico continues to play out and remains a very interesting area of growth and opportunity for everyone as we spend a fair amount of time talking about how to support our current and prospective customers that historically have sourced from China and how they're I mean, no one's abandoning China, but they're diversifying their sourcing strategies and we want to be able to support our current and prospective customers as they're kind of executing against those diversification strategy. But some of the slowest markets to recover for those that have been on some of our prior calls, cruise line is certainly coming back, trade shows coming back quite strongly. So those are definitely some positives. We continue to do a lot of what I'll call retail store rollouts, kind of big distributions to the big box retailers, some of our underlying customers that are vendors to those big box retailers.

Speaker 1

That business is I wouldn't say red hot, but it's certainly still there and moving along nicely. We do a fair amount of work in kind of high value servers, kind of the high-tech space and moving servers around here in the U. S. And around the world for some of our accounts. That continues to do well.

Speaker 1

Our kind of humanitarian aid, disaster relief continues to see opportunities given what's going on in the world environment. So those are some kind of areas or thematics that we observe within our own business.

Speaker 5

Yes, that all sounds really good. Maybe you can also at least what we've heard is there's been a lot more pushback from a pricing standpoint, at least in the entire transportation industry. And I'm wondering if you guys are encountering that as well when it comes to your service offerings that people are pushing back on pricing.

Speaker 1

Well, I think for the benefit of the listeners, I think what you're describing is that we've been in an environment where kind of the pendulum of power has shifted to the customer and they've been kind of doing their best to extract the best pricing they can out of the carrier base. But I think the pushback is coming is that there's just effectively nothing left to give from the asset base guys. And to kind of build on that concept a little bit further, as a non asset base, there's a principally non asset base 3PL when the asset based guys have excess capacity setting idle, they effectively begin to offer service at irrational unsustainable pricing because they've got sunk cost and they would rather keep their fleets rolling than sitting idle. And so that environment is a very tough environment for everybody, but including the non asset based guys because the asset based carriers are effectively taking as much freight as they can. And so there's not as much left over to enjoy, if you will, for the non asset based players.

Speaker 1

But if we look at that over time, the this window in the freight cycle is a very small window in time within what I would call a normal freight cycle. You hear a lot of people talking about an elongated recovery because just this window is taking longer than usual to kind of work its way through. And that there's obviously a lot of contributing factors. But when COVID was going on and there was such rich margins to be enjoyed by the transports, everyone was out investing in capacity and then so we know what kind of happens at the end of that movie or in the kind of the down part of that cycle, which we're working through now.

Speaker 2

Yes, I'll echo that. I mean, we're seeing increases in domestic, international incrementally per quarter. And with those, I'm looking specifically at our net margins, it's volume, the volumes are starting to pick up. And at some point in time, obviously, we'll get back more of that equilibrium in that whole scenario that Bohn is describing will obviously be behind us. So it's I'm thinking that will change hopefully next quarter, here this quarter we're in.

Speaker 2

And the dynamics of what you're discussing, I think will be back to a more normal healthy environment for everyone.

Speaker 5

Thanks guys. I appreciate all the color. I'll hand it over. Sure.

Speaker 2

Yes.

Operator

And our next question comes from Jason Seidl from TD Cowen. Go ahead, Jason.

Speaker 1

Thanks, operator. Hey, Bonnie, Todd. How are you guys doing? Good. Thank you.

Speaker 1

Good. So, wanted to

Speaker 6

sort of get an idea about 4Q given just how slow 3Q started. Can you sort of walk us through EBITDA per month so we can get a better feel of what the run rate is as we head into the quarter here?

Speaker 1

No. We're not going to get that granular in terms of the deep of our numbers. I think that would be problematic in terms of just disclosures. And I don't have to turn around issue an H and A on the backside of this call.

Speaker 6

All right. So let me ask you this. Were you guys profitable on an EBITDA basis, Jay?

Speaker 2

Yes.

Speaker 6

Okay. That's fair enough. Also,

Speaker 3

how should we

Speaker 6

think about the current mix between sort of your international air business and your more domestic stuff versus and your ocean as well? I'm just curious where you guys ended the quarter on a mix basis?

Speaker 1

I'm well, that's yes. I'll let Todd hop in because I'm painting with a broad brush. But historically, our core business as a domestic time definite freight forward. So again, painting with a really broad brush, if we're normally a $1,000,000,000 revenue company, maybe $350,000,000 or $400,000,000 might be international. And then we could kind of peel that apart between air and ocean.

Speaker 1

But the bigger piece of the pie is on domestic. And when I say domestic, I'm including North America. So I'm including our Canadian business and Canadian cross border and our Mexico and Mexico cross border business is kind of domestic and the international being true international air and ocean coming to North America. Todd, are you going to add? Yes.

Speaker 1

And then how it goes. I don't know if you want to kind of feel that part a little further.

Speaker 2

I agree with what you're saying.

Speaker 6

Perfect.

Speaker 1

Jason, I'll build on it just a little bit more for you. So on the certainly historically, we were as we thought about international, we were much more air freight than ocean freight. And then during COVID, we ended up doing a fair amount of ocean, kind of during the peaks of COVID given all the constraints and everyone looking for space. So that was a little bit anomalous, kind of the spike in ocean, kind of during the height of COVID. But you would expect us to be more heavily leaning towards airfreight than oceanfreight in terms of margin contribution.

Speaker 6

Okay. So as I think about the additional capacity coming on in the ocean space, you guys are going to be less impacted than your typical freight forwarder might be?

Speaker 1

Certainly. Well, I think the answer to that is yes, because most people when they say freight forwarder, they think international freight forwarding. And again, the majority of our business is actually on the domestic port. Okay.

Speaker 6

I just want to make sure we're thinking about it at the right

Speaker 2

I mean historically our gross margins, 65% of it if you go back to the prior year was domestic. So that's the and that will continue to be we'll have it'll be absolutely the majority the vast majority of our net margins.

Speaker 1

Perfect. And Bon, as you talked

Speaker 2

a little bit about usage of

Speaker 6

cash, and I understand it's going to be spread out depending upon where the market is. But at least for the near term, should we expect you guys to sort of just stay in that buyback and agent tuck in mode because right now given where your stock is trading, it might be just difficult to do any sort of other outside transaction for the multiple type?

Speaker 1

I always want to choose my words carefully because I never say never, right? But certainly, we'll continue to look with a great deal of scrutiny around the multiples that we pay and the relative trade offs relative to the stock buyback, we really look at that in and around every transaction. So certainly, that's the what you described is definitely the baseline case and kind of what we would generally expect to happen. But I don't want to paint myself into a corner where a transaction came along that we really felt was compelling, we would look at it. And so I don't want to say anything on the call that would leave us at another conclusion than that.

Speaker 6

Fair enough. Guys, I appreciate the time as always.

Speaker 1

Thank you. Thank you.

Operator

And our next question comes from Jeff Kauffman from Vertical Research. Go ahead, Jeff.

Speaker 3

Thanks. Hey, Ben. Hey, Todd. Hey, so a lot of my questions have been answered. So let me go in a different direction.

Speaker 3

The last 2 years from Q3 to Q4, we've been dealing with this inventory destocking and what ended up being almost negative seasonality in a quarter that should be displaying more positive seasonality. Do you feel like that's going to be a little different this year? Like do you think we're past the worst of the storm and we're going to see more normal 3Q to 4Q seasonality? And then if you could just remind us, because I don't think we've seen it in 3 years, what does normal 3Q to 4Q seasonality look like?

Speaker 2

Yes. I mean, I personally, I mean, it's too early to tell, right? But I do think it's going to be much more normal. I mean, we're seeing increases tracking each month versus each quarter. And as we mentioned earlier, I mean, April has been stronger than March, etcetera.

Speaker 2

So and typically our Q3 is our weakest quarter. So we are fully expecting Q4 is going to be certainly much stronger than our existing Q3. So it's so yes, I think it's I think we're what we saw in the past, I think that is in my opinion, not going to I mean, we're going to be back to

Speaker 6

a more of a normal

Speaker 2

Q4 increase over historical Q3.

Speaker 3

All right. And I know there's not a cash flow statement in the release, but if I was looking for the 1st 9 months of the year at an unaudited cash flow statement, what would be my year to date use of cash on acquisitions and share repurchase?

Speaker 1

So obviously, that is in the queue that should also be filed by now, but Todd is looking here to give you that number. Yes.

Speaker 3

I mean we can always collect offline.

Speaker 2

Yes. So share repurchases, Jeff, for the 9 months was 3,100,000 dollars That's what we purchased through for the 9 months ended March 31, 2024.

Speaker 3

All the shares were fairly this quarter.

Speaker 2

Yes. And then you also asked about acquisitions and payments to acquire businesses for the 9 months was just under $2,000,000

Speaker 3

All right. So is there a certain I know you're being opportunistic and you're sitting on a powder keg of liquidity here for opportunities. But is there a certain cash level that you just don't want to go below given the environment?

Speaker 1

Not necessarily. I mean, I would answer I'll come at that slightly differently, which is we would target probably plus or minus 2.5 times funded debt to EBITDA in terms of leverage, while leaving kind of cushion within our capacity. So we would be comfortable up to 2.5 times. So that's kind of an answer. But we would only with the benefit of the cash we generated through COVID are we sitting in a net cash positive position?

Speaker 1

Almost always through the history of the company, we've been a net borrower and had amounts out standing under our credit facility. So it's not that we're not prepared to we're not seeking or intentionally targeting some targeted level of cash. At the end of the day, we're looking more at what are we comfortably carrying as kind of a net debt position relative to our financial covenants and all that kind of stuff.

Speaker 3

One last question, Scott, if I can. So shares outstanding started the year around $49,000,000 and I'm talking fiscal year. And currently they're right around 47. So they're down about 2,000,000 shares, but you've only repurchased 500,000 shares. I think I know the answer, but can you help me understand what that other 1,500,000 share difference is?

Speaker 3

And is it a situation where if you return to profit and the stock goes up a buck or 2, are we looking at 48 to 49,000,000 in shares

Speaker 1

as opposed to 46,000,000 to 47,000,000?

Speaker 2

What's the pay?

Speaker 3

I'm just trying to model here.

Speaker 2

So I'm sorry, let's see. So we've yes, we start well, the treasury shares were 4,300,000 at the beginning of the year, June 30, 2023. And so we have yes, we purchased 500,000 shares. So our treasury shares are now 4,800,000.

Speaker 3

Right. But the fully diluted shares finished the fiscal year at 49,100,000 and they're currently $47,000,000 ish. So that's a 2,000,000 share difference in reported shares outstanding on a 500,000 shares repurchased. I'm just wondering Yes, I think that dilution has to

Speaker 2

do with the fact there was a net loss in the quarter.

Speaker 1

Well, I think it has more to do that there's out of the money securities that wouldn't be counted in that share outstanding basis. I think that's the point you're getting at. Yes.

Speaker 3

Right. So I guess my question is in terms of modeling, if you swing to a profit, will that drive it back to 48,500,000 shares or is it something more to do with stock price?

Speaker 2

Well, yes, it will drive it back. Obviously, we'll recast calculations and as those numbers change, it's going to obviously impact the overall fully diluted shares of the calculation. So the answer is yes.

Speaker 3

Okay. Thank you for that. Congratulations. Hopefully this environment gets better soon and thank you for answering my questions.

Speaker 2

Thank you, Jeff. We appreciate your support.

Operator

And we do have one last question from Mike Fuhrman from Newland Capital. Go ahead, Mike.

Speaker 7

Hey, guys. How are you doing?

Speaker 1

Good. Thanks. A couple of quick ones

Speaker 7

for you. Obviously, a lot of your competitors are we've seen a lot of reports are hurting pretty bad right now. And I believe some of your direct competitors do have a lot of leverage on them. They've been I think they're private equity. So have you seen any concern from their customers coming to you?

Speaker 7

Are you winning any new business? I guess what I'm getting to, are we going to come out of this stronger than we went into them? Forgetting about acquisitions, but just on the pure organic win basis.

Speaker 1

Well, so I don't want to take advantage of the softball you're throwing out there to talk negatively about our competitors. So I'm going to

Speaker 7

say I'm talking more positively about

Speaker 1

Yes. I think we are in a good relative position. Everybody's got their own set of constraints and their own strategies to address those issues. And we're going to do all we can to take advantage of the opportunity sets that come our way. And I can't I don't know what some of those I don't know what financial flexibility some of those folks have to go recapitalize their sheets or whether it's going to cause some other types of or create some other types of opportunities.

Speaker 1

I don't know and if I did, I wouldn't be in a position to say so anyway.

Speaker 7

Right. But

Speaker 1

your observations aren't we're kind of candidly, we're kind of curious as well to see kind of what's going to happen out there because we're certainly not having a lot of fun in this market, but we're kind of top of glass in my around the situation. So I don't

Speaker 7

envy On that topic, are you seeing more deals come to market, not necessarily ones that we would want, but are there more distressed companies shopping themselves around? That may or may not be interesting to us, but are you seeing more? Absolutely.

Speaker 1

And candidly, particularly on the truck brokerage side, right? A that's been a really tough place for folks. And we've certainly without any specifics, we certainly hear have heard and continue to hear there's quite a few folks out there that are just going kind of payroll to payroll trying to live to fight another day. There we've seen it underway and I think we're not done with the constructive destruction that's got to take place over on the trucking side of things in particular return some more rational pricing to the marketplace.

Speaker 7

Excellent. And then one last one for you. I know know over the past couple of years, we and I think we had peak earnings, I don't remember whether we did $70,000,000 $80,000,000 of EBITDA. Now we're down here. And you had always said, forget about the ups and downs, they're normalized to somewhere between, let's say, dollars 50,000,000 $60,000,000 I think you said, maybe if I remember correctly, somewhere in that area.

Speaker 7

Is that still a good bookmark? In normal time, we should be in that range and hopefully everything that we're doing during the downturn, bringing in some of the agents, maybe some acquisition, maybe that creeps up over time, but has anything changed in your mind to that normalized type EBITDA run rate for the company?

Speaker 1

No. I mean, I think the only thing that's changed is just this is the elongated nature of this slowdown. So the time that it is taking us all collectively to get back to that normal is being extended kind of beyond what people were expecting. But in terms of how we think about the business, the opportunity set, the strategies, they are areas of focus, none of that has changed. But probably what has not directly responsive to your question, but we were in some respects fortunate we didn't go do a lot of take all of our cash and go do a lot of M and A and pay higher multiples for businesses or go do a tender offer for a bunch of our stock at $6 $7 a share or whatever it was at the time, when we would get those questions from time to time.

Speaker 1

I'm really glad we didn't do those things because we were as cautious as we were, it just put us in a better situation or better position to some people are kind of burning the furniture and we're not at all doing that, right? We're continuing to invest in the business and continue to grow and focus on organic growth and salespeople and supporting our making good on our brand promise and supporting our agent stations and those conversions. So we are largely business as normal, notwithstanding the fact that this is a really tough one.

Speaker 7

All right. Excellent. Well, happy with the balance sheet, happy with the continuation of positive cash generation. So it will get better and you're doing a great job.

Speaker 1

Thanks guys. Thanks. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. That is our last question. I'd now like to turn it back to management for any closing remarks.

Speaker 1

Thank you. Let me close by saying that we remain optimistic about our prospects and opportunities to continue to leverage our best in class technology, robust North American footprint and extensive global network of service partners to continue to build on the great platform we've created here at Radient. At the same time, we intend to thoughtfully relever our balance sheet and through a combination of agestation conversions, synergistic tuck in acquisitions and stock buyback. Through our multi pronged approach of organic growth, acquisitions and buybacks, we believe we will continue to create meaningful value for our shareholders, operating partners and the end customers that we serve. Thanks for listening and your support of Radian Logistics.
