Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
- Acquisition Strategy: Management intends to pursue organic growth and further acquisitions to build a leading global logistics company. The company expects to pursue an additional equity offering within the next twelve months to fund growth.
- Contingent Liabilities: The Airgroup acquisition includes earn-out provisions. A base earn-out of $1.9 million in stock is payable over three years if income targets are met. An additional Tier-2 earn-out of up to $1.5 million in stock is possible over five years. A $600,000 cash payment to former shareholders was agreed to in January 2007 (subsequent event) but was not recorded as a liability at Dec 31, 2006.
- Debt Covenants: The company has a $10 million revolving credit facility. As of Dec 31, 2006, there were no advances outstanding, with approximately $4.6 million available. The facility requires compliance with financial covenants regarding funded debt to EBITDA ratios and minimum profitability standards.
- Risks: Key risks include the ability to integrate acquired businesses, dependence on exclusive agents, intense industry competition, and the potential inability to secure additional financing for future acquisitions.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Revenue Recognition: Verify the gross vs. net revenue reporting policy (EITF 99-19) and the accuracy of accrued transportation costs, which are estimates.
- Intangible Assets: Review the amortization schedule for acquired intangibles ($305,915 expense for six months) and the annual impairment testing for goodwill ($4.7 million).
- Debt Availability: Confirm the company's ability to maintain the financial covenants of the $10 million credit facility, specifically the funded debt to EBITDA ratio.
- Earn-Out Obligations: Monitor the performance of Airgroup against the $2.5 million annual income targets to determine future cash and stock payout obligations.
- Related Party Transactions: Review the formation and operations of Radiant Logistics Partners, LLC (RLP), a co-borrower on the credit facility owned partially by the CEO's affiliate.
