Business Context and Reporting Period
This Form 10-Q covers the quarterly period ended December 31, 2025 (Fiscal Q2 2026). Radiant Logistics, Inc. operates as a leading third-party logistics company providing technology-enabled global transportation and value-added services primarily in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The company utilizes a multi-brand network of over 100 operating locations, including strategic operating partners and company-owned sites.
Key Financial Metrics (Six Months Ended Dec 31, 2025)
- Revenue: $458.8 million (down 2.0% vs. prior year).
- Net Income (Attributable to RLGT): $6.6 million (down 33.1% vs. prior year).
- Adjusted EBITDA: $18.6 million (down 13.2% vs. prior year).
- Operating Cash Flow: $14.8 million provided by operating activities.
- Liquidity: Cash and cash equivalents totaled $31.9 million as of December 31, 2025.
- Debt: $30.0 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility; total long-term liabilities were $88.0 million.
- Margins: Adjusted gross profit margin was 26.8% (up from 25.8% in the prior year).
Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Decline: Transportation revenue decreased $13.0 million (2.9%) primarily due to the absence of meaningful project charter revenues in the current period that were present in the prior year. This was partially offset by incremental revenue from acquisitions.
- Cost Increases: Personnel costs increased $5.0 million (12.7%) due to headcount growth from acquisitions and share-based compensation expenses. Operating partner commissions increased $2.2 million (5.8%) driven by higher adjusted gross profit from partners.
- Expense Reductions: Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased $0.6 million, largely due to the absence of $1.1 million in lease termination costs incurred in the prior year. Depreciation and amortization decreased $2.7 million as certain intangible assets from prior acquisitions became fully amortized.
- Acquisition Activity: The company acquired an 80% interest in Weport, S.A. de C.V. (a Mexico-based logistics firm) effective September 1, 2025. This acquisition contributed to revenue but also added to goodwill and contingent consideration liabilities.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
- Strategic Focus: Management continues to pursue organic growth through network expansion and inorganic growth via acquisitions to increase density in trade lanes and purchasing power.
- Capital Allocation: The Board extended the stock repurchase program in November 2025, authorizing up to 5,000,000 shares through December 31, 2027. The company repurchased 585,050 shares for $3.5 million during the six-month period.
- Risks: Key risks include global economic uncertainty, inflationary pressures on fuel and labor, geopolitical tensions affecting trade, and foreign exchange rate fluctuations (a 1% change in FX rates would impact net income by approximately $0.15 million).
- Contingencies: The company has contingent consideration obligations of $16.3 million related to acquisitions, with a maximum potential earn-out of $43.8 million through 2029.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the sustainability of the revenue decline in transportation services and the extent to which it is driven by the one-time absence of project charter revenues versus broader market headwinds.
- Monitor the integration progress and financial performance of the Weport acquisition, including the realization of synergies and the impact of the 20% redeemable noncontrolling interest.
- Assess the trajectory of personnel costs as a percentage of adjusted gross profit, which increased to 35.9% in the current period.
- Review the company's leverage ratios and compliance with the Revolving Credit Facility covenants (max 3.0x net leverage, min 3.0x interest coverage) given the increased debt drawdown to $30 million.
- Confirm the status of the stock repurchase program and the remaining authorization under the extended plan.
