Stock Buy-Back

We purchased 1,784,249 shares of our common stock at an average cost of $6.20 per share for an aggregate cost of $11.1 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had 47,294,529 shares outstanding.

CEO Bohn Crain Comments on Results

"Our results for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2023 continue to reflect the macro-economic effects of the difficult freight markets on the entire industry as well as our operations," said Bohn Crain, Founder and CEO of Radiant Logistics. "The confluence of shippers continuing to manage through elevated inventories, reduced imports and slowing economic growth, has had a cascading effect across virtually every mode of transportation. As in the prior quarter, these market conditions have negatively impacted not only our current results, but also the year-over-year comparison to our record results for prior year period. With that said, we believe we are at or near the bottom of this cycle and would expect markets to begin to find their way to more sustainable and normalized levels in coming quarters."

Mr. Crain continued, "Notwithstanding the tough year over year comparisons, we are very proud to report that we generated a record $97.9 million in cash from operations for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. During this same period, we have remained relatively quiet on the acquisition front and have instead focused our attention on paying down debt and deploying just over $11.1 million to repurchase our stock. Through this disciplined approach to capital allocation, I am happy to report that we are in the strongest financial position in the Company's history and, as of June 30, 2023, we have approximately $32.5 million of cash on hand and nothing drawn on our $200.0 million credit facility.

Having fortified our balance sheet, we believe we are well positioned to navigate through these slower freight markets as we find our way back to more normalized market conditions. At the same time, we believe our patience and discipline may be rewarded as market conditions become more conducive to our acquisition strategy and we have ample "dry powder" to become more active on the acquisition front should the opportunity present itself. Looking ahead, we will remain focused on delivering profitable growth through a combination of organic and acquisition initiatives and thoughtfully re-levering our balance sheet through a combination of agent station conversions, synergistic tuck–in acquisitions, and stock buy–backs. Through this approach we will continue to scale our business, leveraging our best–in–class technology and extensive global network, which we believe, over time, will continue to deliver meaningful value for our shareholders, operating partners, and the end customers that we serve."

This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning set forth in United States securities laws and regulations – that is, statements related to future, not past, events. In this context, forward-looking statements often address our expected future business, financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimates," "expect," "future," "intend," "may," "plan," "see," "seek," "strategy," or "will" or the negative thereof or any variation thereon or similar terminology or expressions. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We have developed our forward-looking statements based on management's beliefs and assumptions, which in turn rely upon information available to them at the time such statements were made. Such forward-looking statements reflect our current perspectives on our business, future performance, existing trends and information as of the date of this report. These include, but are not limited to, our beliefs about future revenue and expense levels, growth rates, prospects related to our strategic initiatives and business strategies, along with express or implied assumptions about, among other things: our continued relationships with our strategic operating partners; the performance of our historic business, as well as the businesses we have recently acquired, at levels consistent with recent trends and reflective of the synergies we believe will be available to us as a result of such acquisitions; our ability to successfully integrate our recently acquired businesses; our ability to locate suitable acquisition opportunities and secure the financing necessary to complete such acquisitions; transportation costs remaining in-line with recent levels and expected trends; our ability to mitigate, to the best extent possible, our dependence on current management and certain larger strategic operating partners; our compliance with financial and other covenants under our indebtedness; the absence of any adverse laws or governmental regulations affecting the transportation industry in general, and our operations in particular; the impact of COVID-19 or any other health pandemic or environment event on our operations and financial results; continued disruptions in the global supply chain; higher inflationary pressures particularly surrounding the costs of fuel; labor and other components of our operations; potential adverse legal, reputational and financial effects on the Company resulting from the ransomware incident that we reported in December of 2021 or future cyber incidents and the effectiveness of the Company's business continuity plans in response to cyber incidents, like the ransomware incident; the commercial, reputational and regulatory risks to our business that may arise as a consequence of our need to restate our financial statements; our longer-term relationship with our senior lenders as a consequence of our need to restate our financial statements; our temporary loss of the use of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register securities in the future; any disruption to our business that may occur on a longer-term basis should we be unable to remediate during fiscal year 2024 certain material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, and such other factors that may be identified from time to time in our Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings and other public announcements including those set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in Part 1 Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2023. In addition, the global economic climate and additional or unforeseen effects from the COVID-19 pandemic or other unexpected health pandemics, may amplify many of these risks. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, as they speak only as of the date made. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
