CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Statements

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. For us, particular uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements include: continued relationships with our operating partners; challenges in locating suitable acquisition opportunities and securing the financing necessary to complete such acquisitions; general industry conditions and competition; domestic and international economic and political factors; transportation costs; our ability to mitigate, to the best extent possible, our dependence on current management and certain of our larger operating partners; laws and governmental regulations affecting the transportation industry in general and our operations in particular; 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 below under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part 1 Item 1A of this report. 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. Except as required by law, we assume no duty to update or revise our forward-looking statements.

PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Our Company

Radiant Logistics, Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “us”) is a non-asset based transportation and logistics services company providing domestic and international freight forwarding services and truck brokerage services through a network of Company-owned and strategic operating partner locations operating under the Radiant, Airgroup, Adcom, DBA and On Time network brands located throughout North America and an integrated service partner network serving other markets around the globe. We also offer an expanding array of value-added supply chain management services, including customs brokerage, order fulfillment, inventory management and warehousing.

Through our operating locations across North America, we offer domestic and international air, ocean and ground freight forwarding to a large and diversified account base consisting of manufacturers, distributors and retailers. Our primary business operations involve arranging the shipment, on behalf of our customers, of materials, products, equipment and other goods that are generally larger than shipments handled by integrated carriers of primarily small parcels, such as FedEx, DHL and UPS. We provide a wide range of value-added logistics solutions to meet customers’ specific requirements for transportation and related services, including arranging and monitoring all aspects of material flow activity utilizing advanced information technology systems.

Our value-added transportation and logistics solutions are provided using a network of independent air, ground and ocean carriers and integrated service partners strategically positioned around the world. We create value for our customers and operating partners through, among other things, our customized logistics solutions, global reach, brand awareness, purchasing power, and infrastructure benefits, such as centralized back-office operations, and advanced transportation and accounting systems.

As we continue to grow and scale the business, we are developing density in our trade lanes which creates opportunities for us to more efficiently source and manage our transportation capacity. In pursuing this opportunity, we recently launched an organic initiative to offer truck brokerage capabilities through our wholly owned subsidiary, Radiant Transportation Services in an effort to internalize a portion of purchased transportation expenditures with our unaffiliated third party truck brokers and expand the margin characteristics of our existing business. Our recent acquisition of On Time was an extension of this strategy, which internalized an airport to airport line haul network that gives us greater flexibility to maximize the margin characteristics of the freight under our control.

Competitive Strengths

As a non-asset based third-party logistics provider, we believe that we are well-positioned to provide cost-effective and efficient solutions to address the demand in the marketplace for transportation and logistics services. We believe that the most important competitive factors in our industry are quality of service, including reliability, responsiveness, expertise and convenience, scope of operations, geographic coverage, information technology and price. We believe our primary competitive advantages are as follows:

Non-asset based business model

As a non-asset based provider we do not own the transportation equipment used to transport the freight, and thus with relatively no dedicated or fixed operating costs, we are able to leverage our network of locations to offer competitive pricing and flexible solutions to our customers. Moreover, our balanced product offering provides us with revenue streams from multiple sources and enables us to retain customers even as they shift from priority to deferred shipments of their products. We believe our low capital intensity model allows us to provide low-cost solutions to our customers, operate our business with strong cash flow characteristics, and retain significant flexibility in responding to changing industries and economic conditions.

Lower-risk operation of network of strategic operating partners

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue pursuant to agreements with our operating partners operating under our various brands. These arrangements afford us with a relatively low risk growth model as each operating partner is responsible for its own sales and costs of operations. Under shared economic arrangements with our operating partners, we are responsible to provide centralized back-office infrastructure, transportation and accounting systems, billing and collection services.

2


Offer significant advantages to our strategic operating partners

Our current network is predominantly represented by our strategic operating partners that rely on us for operating authority, technology, sales and marketing support, access to working capital, our carrier and international partner networks, and collective purchasing power. Through this strategic alliance, our operating partners have the ability to focus on the operational and sales support aspects of the business without diverting costs or expertise to the structural aspect of its operations, thus, providing our operating partners with the regional, national and global brand recognition that they would not otherwise be able to achieve by solely serving their local market.

Diverse customer base

We have a well-diversified customer base that includes manufacturers, distributors and retailers. As of the date of this report, no single customer represented more than 5% of our business and no operating partner represented more than 10% of our business, reducing risks associated with any particular industry, geographic or customer concentration.

Information technology resources

A primary component of our business strategy is the continued development of advanced information systems to provide accurate and timely information to our management, operating partners and customers. We believe that the ability to provide accurate real-time information on the status of shipments has and will become increasingly more important in our industry. Our customer delivery tools enable connectivity with our customers’ and trading partners’ systems, which leads to more accurate and up-to-date information on the status of shipments. Our centralized transportation management system (rating, routing, tender and financial settlement process) drives significant productivity improvement across our network.

Global network of transportation providers

We provide worldwide supply chain services, which today include international air and ocean services that complement our domestic service offerings. These offerings include heavyweight and small package air services, providing same day (next flight out) air charters, next day a.m./p.m., second day a.m./p.m. as well as time definite surface transport moves. Our non-asset based business model allows us to use commercial passenger and cargo flights. Thus, we have thousands of daily flight options to choose from, and our pickup and delivery network provides us with zip code to zip code coverage throughout North America.

Ability to leverage On Time’s dedicated time definite line-haul network

As we continue to grow and scale the business, we are developing density in our trade lanes which creates opportunities for us to more efficiently source and manage our transportation capacity. We believe the recent addition of On Time’s dedicated line haul network will provide transportation capacity to our other operating locations across North America and serve as a catalyst for margin expansion in our existing business and a competitive differentiator in the marketplace to help us secure new customers and attract additional operating partners to our network.

Industry Overview

As business requirements for efficient and cost-effective logistics services have increased, so has the importance and complexity of effectively managing freight transportation. Businesses increasingly strive to minimize inventory levels, perform manufacturing and assembly operations in the lowest cost locations, and distribute their products in numerous global markets. As a result, companies are increasingly looking to third-party logistics providers to help them execute their supply chain strategies.

Customers have two principal third-party alternatives: a freight forwarder or a fully-integrated carrier. We operate primarily as a freight forwarder. Freight forwarders procure shipments from customers and arrange the transportation of cargo on a carrier. A freight forwarder may also arrange pick-up from the shipper to the carrier and delivery of the shipment from the carrier to the recipient. Freight forwarders often tailor shipment routing to meet the customer’s price and service requirements. Fully-integrated carriers, such as FedEx Corporation (“FedEx”), DHL Worldwide Express, Inc. (“DHL”) and United Parcel Service (“UPS”), provide pickup and delivery service, primarily through their own captive fleets of trucks and aircraft. Because freight forwarders select from various transportation options in routing customer shipments, they are often able to serve customers less expensively and with greater flexibility than integrated carriers. Freight forwarders generally handle shipments of any size and offer a variety of customized shipping options.

3


Most freight forwarders, including us, focus on heavier cargo and do not generally compete with integrated shippers of primarily smaller parcels. In addition to the high fixed expenses associated with owning, operating and maintaining fleets of aircraft, trucks and related equipment, integrated carriers often impose significant restrictions on delivery schedules and shipment weight, size and type. On occasion, integrated shippers serve as a source of cargo space to forwarders. Additionally, most freight forwarders do not generally compete with the major commercial airlines, which, to some extent, depend on forwarders to procure shipments and supply freight to fill cargo space on their scheduled flights.

We believe there are several factors that are increasing demand for global logistics solutions. These factors include:

·

Outsourcing of non-core activities.

·

Globalization of trade

·

Increased need for time-definite delivery

·

Consolidation of global logistics providers

·

Increasing influence of e-business and the Internet

Our Growth Strategy

Our objective is to provide customers with comprehensive value-added logistics solutions through domestic and international freight forwarding services offered by us through our Radiant, Airgroup, Adcom, DBA and On Time network brands. Since inception of our business in 2006, we have executed a strategy to expand operations through a combination of organic growth and the strategic acquisition of non-asset based transportation and logistics providers meeting our acquisition criteria. We have successfully completed ten acquisitions since our initial acquisition of Airgroup in January of 2006, including:

·

Automotive Services Group, expanding our services into the automotive industry, in 2007;

·

Adcom Express, Inc., adding domestic operating partner locations, in 2008;

·

DBA Distribution Services, Inc., adding two Company-owned locations and operating partner locations, in 2011;

·

ISLA International Ltd., adding a Company-owned location in Laredo, Texas, providing us with bilingual expertise in both north and south bound cross-border transportation and logistics services, in 2011;

·

Brunswicks Logistics, Inc., adding a strategic Company-owned location in New York-JFK, in 2012;

·

Marvir Logistics, Inc., adding a Company location in Los Angeles from the conversion of a former operating partner since 2006, in 2012;

·

International Freight Systems of Oregon, Inc., adding a Company location in Portland, Oregon, from the conversion of a former operating partner since 2007, in 2012;

·

On Time Express, Inc., adding three Company-owned locations in Phoenix, Arizona, Dallas, Texas and Atlanta, Georgia, to providing additional line haul and time critical logistics capabilities, in 2013;

·

Phoenix Cartage and Air Freight, LLC, (“PCA”) opening a Company-owned location in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and

·

Trans-NET, Inc. (“TNI”) expanding Company-owned operations in Seattle, Washington and providing a gateway of services to the Russian Far East.

We expect to grow our business organically and by completing acquisitions of other companies with complementary geographical and logistics service offerings. We will continue to make enhancements to our back-office infrastructure, transportation management, and accounting systems to support this growth. Our organic growth strategy will continue to focus on strengthening existing and expanding new customer relationships, while continuing our efforts on the organic build-out of our network of operating partner locations. In addition, we will also be working to drive further productivity improvements enabled through the introduction of our value-added truck brokerage and customs house brokerage service capabilities and the optimization of our own transportation capacity management opportunities available through On Time’s dedicated line haul network.

4


Our acquisition strategy has been designed to take advantage of shifting market dynamics. The third-party logistics industry continues to grow as an increasing number of businesses outsource their logistics functions to more cost effectively manage and extract value from their supply chains. The industry is positioned for further consolidation as it remains highly fragmented, and as customers are demanding the types of sophisticated and broad reaching service offerings that can more effectively be handled by larger more diverse organizations. We believe the highly fragmented composition of the marketplace, the industry participants’ need for capital, and their owners’ desire for liquidity has and will continue to produce a large number of attractive acquisition candidates. Our target acquisition candidates are generally smaller than those identified as acquisition targets of larger public companies and have limited ability to conduct their own public offerings or obtain financing that will provide them with capital for liquidity or rapid growth. We believe that many of these “smaller” companies are receptive to our acquisition program as a vehicle for liquidation or growth. We intend to be opportunistic in executing our acquisition strategy with a goal of expanding both our domestic and international capabilities.

Our Operating Strategy

Leverage the People, Process and Technology Available through a Central Platform. A key element of our operating strategy is to maximize our operational efficiencies by integrating general and administrative functions into our back-office operations and reducing or eliminating redundant functions and facilities at acquired companies. This is designed to enable us to quickly realize potential savings and synergies, efficiently control and monitor operations of acquired companies, and allow acquired companies to focus on growing their sales and operations.

Develop and Maintain Strong Customer Relationships. We seek to develop and maintain strong interactive customer relationships by anticipating and focusing on our customers’ needs. We emphasize a relationship-oriented approach to business, rather than the transaction or assignment-oriented approach used by many of our competitors. To develop close customer relationships, we and our network of operating partners regularly meet with both existing and prospective customers to help design solutions for, and identify the resources needed to execute, their supply chain strategies. We believe that this relationship-oriented approach results in greater customer satisfaction and reduced business development expense.

Operations

Through our operating locations across North America, we offer domestic and international air, ocean and ground freight forwarding for shipments that are generally larger than shipments handled by integrated carriers of primarily small parcels such as FedEx, DHL and UPS. Our revenues are generated from a number of diverse services, including air freight forwarding, ocean freight forwarding, logistics and other value-added services.

Our primary business operations involve obtaining shipment or material orders from customers, creating and delivering a wide range of logistics solutions to meet customers’ specific requirements for transportation and related services, and arranging and monitoring all aspects of material flow activity utilizing advanced information technology systems. These logistics solutions include domestic and international freight forwarding and door-to-door delivery services using a wide range of transportation modes, including air, ocean and truck. As a non-asset based provider we do not own the transportation equipment used to transport the freight. We expect to neither own nor operate any aircraft and, consequently, place no restrictions on delivery schedules or shipment size. We arrange for transportation of our customers’ shipments via commercial airlines, air cargo carriers, and other asset and non-asset based third-party providers. We select the carrier for a shipment based on route, departure time, available cargo capacity and cost. We may charter cargo aircraft and/or ocean vessel’s from time to time depending upon seasonality, freight volumes and other factors. We generate our gross margin on the difference between what we charge to our customers for the services provided to them, and what we pay to the transportation providers to transport the freight.

As we continue to grow and scale the business, we are developing density in our trade lanes which creates opportunities for us to more efficiently source and manage our transportation capacity. In pursuing this opportunity, we recently launched an organic initiative to offer truck brokerage capabilities through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Radiant Transportation Services, in an effort to internalize a portion of our purchased transportation expenditures with unaffiliated truck brokers and expand the margin characteristics of our existing business. Our recent acquisition of On Time was an extension of this strategy, which internalizes an airport to airport line-haul network that gives us even greater flexibility to maximize the margin characteristic of the freight under our control. We believe that access to On Time’s dedicated line-haul network will provide transportation capacity to our other operating locations across North America and serve not only as a catalyst for margin expansion in our existing business but also as a competitive differentiator in the marketplace to help us secure new customers and attract additional operating partners to our network.

Information Services

The regular enhancement of our information systems and ultimate migration of acquired companies and additional operating partner locations to a common set of back-office and customer facing applications is a key component of our growth strategy. We believe that the ability to provide accurate real-time information on the status of shipments has become increasingly important and that our efforts in this area will result in competitive service advantages. In addition, we believe that centralizing our transportation management system (rating, routing, tender and financial settlement processes) will drive significant productivity improvement across our network.

We use a web-enabled third-party freight forwarding software (Cargowise) that is integrated to our third-party accounting system (SAP). These systems combine to form the foundation of our supply-chain technologies, which we call “Globalvision”, and which provides us with a common set of back-office operating, accounting and customer facing applications used across our network. We have and will continue to assess and invest in technologies to maintain a “best-of-breed” technology solution set using a combination of owned and licensed technologies.

Sales and Marketing

We principally market our services through our network of Company-owned and strategic operating partner locations across North America. Each office is staffed with operational employees to provide support for the sales team, develop frequent contact with the customer’s traffic department, and maintain customer service. Our current network is predominantly represented by strategic operating partners that rely on us for operating authority, technology, sales and marketing support, access to working capital, our carrier network, and collective purchasing power. Through this strategic alliance, our operating partners have the ability to focus on the operational and sales support aspects of the business without diverting costs or expertise to the structural aspect of their operations, providing our partners with the regional, national and global brand recognition that they would not otherwise be able to achieve by solely serving their local market. We have no customers or operating partners that separately account for more than 10% of our consolidated revenues, although we do have a number of significant customers and operating partner locations with volume and stature, the loss of one or more of which could negatively impact our ability to retain and service our customers.

Research and Development

During the past two years, we have not spent any material amount on research and development activities.

Competition and Business Conditions

The logistics business is directly impacted by the volume of domestic and international trade. The volume of such trade is influenced by many factors, including economic and political conditions in the United States and abroad, major work stoppages, exchange controls, currency fluctuations, acts of war, terrorism and other armed conflicts, United States and international laws relating to tariffs, trade restrictions, foreign investments and taxation.

The global transportation and logistics services industry is intensively competitive and is expected to remain so for the foreseeable future. We will compete against other domestic and international freight forwarders, as well as integrated logistics companies, transportation services companies, consultants, information technology vendors and shippers’ transportation departments. This competition is based primarily on rates, quality of service (such as damage-free shipments, on-time delivery and consistent transit times), reliable pickup and delivery and scope of operations. Certain of our competitors have substantially greater financial resources than we do. However, we believe our access to On Time’s dedicated line-haul network will serve as a catalyst for margin expansion in our existing business and a competitive differentiator in the marketplace to help us secure new customers and attract additional operating partners to our network.

Regulation

Interstate and international transportation of freight is highly regulated. Failure to comply with applicable state and federal regulations, or to maintain required permits or licenses, can result in substantial fines or revocation of operating permits or authorities imposed on both transportation intermediaries and their shipper customers. We cannot give assurance as to the degree or cost of future regulations on our business. Some of the regulations affecting our current and prospective operations are described below.

Air freight forwarding operations are subject to regulation, as an indirect air cargo carrier, under the Federal Aviation Act as enforced by the Federal Aviation Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the Transportation Security Administration of the Department of Homeland Security. While air freight forwarders are exempted from most of the Federal Aviation Act’s requirements by the Economic Aviation Regulations, the industry is subject to ongoing regulatory and legislative developments that can impact the economics of the industry by requiring changes to operating practices or influencing the demand for, and the costs of, providing services to customers.

6


Surface freight forwarding operations are subject to various state and federal statutes, and are regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation and, to a very limited extent, the Surface Transportation Board. These federal agencies have broad investigatory and regulatory powers, including the power to issue a certificate of authority or license to engage in the business, to approve specified mergers, consolidations and acquisitions, and to regulate the delivery of some types of domestic shipments and operations within particular geographic areas.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration also has the authority to regulate interstate motor carrier operations, including the regulation of certain rates, charges and accounting systems, to require periodic financial reporting, and to regulate insurance, driver qualifications, operation of motor vehicles, parts and accessories for motor vehicle equipment, hours of service of drivers, inspection, repair, maintenance standards and other safety related matters. The federal laws governing interstate motor carriers have both direct and indirect application to the Company. The breadth and scope of the federal regulations may affect our operations and the motor carriers that are used in the provisioning of the transportation services. In certain locations, state or local permits or registrations may also be required to provide or obtain intrastate motor carrier services.

The Federal Maritime Commission, or FMC, regulates and licenses ocean forwarding operations. Non-vessel operating common carriers are subject to FMC regulation, under the FMC tariff filing and surety bond requirements, and under the Shipping Act of 1984, particularly those terms proscribing rebating practices.

United States customs brokerage operations are subject to the licensing requirements of the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection of the Department of Homeland Security. As we broaden our capabilities to include customs brokerage operations, we will be subject to regulation by the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection. Likewise, any customs brokerage operations must also be licensed in and subject to the regulations of countries into which freight is imported.

Personnel

As of the date of this report, we have approximately 300 employees, of which 291 are full time. None of these employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have experienced no work stoppages and consider our relations with our employees to be good.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

RISKS PARTICULAR TO OUR BUSINESS

You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below as well as the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this Form 10-K before investing in our common stock. Any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such a case, you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks described below are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or those we currently view to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The future trading price of shares of our common stock will be affected by the performance of our business relative to, among other things, competition, market conditions and general economic and industry conditions.

Risks Related to our Business

We need to maintain and expand our existing operating partner network to increase revenues.

We sell our services through Company-owned locations and through a network of strategic operating partner locations throughout North America operating under our brands. Approximately 66% and 75% of our consolidated revenues for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were derived through our operating partners. We believe our strategic operating partners will remain critical to our success for the foreseeable future. We have long-term contractual relationships with many of our operating partners. Although the terms of our operating partner agreements vary widely, they generally cover the manner and amount of payments, the services to be performed, the length of the contract, and provide us with certain protections such as partner-funded reserves and indemnification obligations, and often include a personal guaranty of the independent owner. Certain of our operating partner agreements are for defined terms, while others are subject to “evergreen” terms or contain automatic renewal provisions. In most situations, however, the agreements can be terminated by operating partner with prior notice, regardless of the stated term. While at times operating agreements technically expire, we endeavor to work with the partner to renew the agreement while continuing to operate pursuant to the most recent contract terms, based on historic and on-going course of dealings with the partner. As certain agreements expire, there can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into new agreements that provide for the same terms as those previously agreed upon, if at all. Thus, we are subject to the risk of operating partner terminations and the failure or refusal of certain of our operating partners to renew their existing agreements. While we have no customers or operating partner locations that separately account for more than 10% of our consolidated revenues, we do have a number of customers and operating partner locations with significant volume and stature, the loss of one or more of which could materially and negatively impact our ability to

7


retain and service our customers. We will need to expand our existing relationships and enter into new relationships in order to increase our current and future market share and revenue. We cannot be certain that we will be able to maintain and expand our existing operating partner relationships or enter into new operating partner relationships, or that new or renewed operating partner relationships will be available on commercially reasonable terms. If we are unable to maintain and expand our existing operating partner relationships, renew existing operating partner relationships, or enter into new operating partner relationships, we may lose customers, customer introductions and co-marketing benefits, and our operating results may suffer significantly.

We are a non-asset based transportation and logistics services company. As a result, we depend on a variety of asset-based third-party carriers, whose actions we do not directly control.

The quality and profitability of our services depend upon effective selection, management and discipline of third-party carriers. Changes in the financial stability, operating capabilities and capacity of our third-party carriers could affect us in unpredictable ways, including volatility in pricing and challenge our ability to remain profitable. Any determination that our third-party carriers have violated laws and regulations could seriously damage our reputation and brands, resulting in diminished revenue and profit and increased operating costs.

If our operating partners fail to maintain adequate reserves against unpaid customer invoices, or if we are unable to offset against amounts payable by us to our operating partners for unpaid customer invoices, our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue pursuant to agreements with independently-owned operating partners operating under our various brands. Under these agreements, each individual operating partner office is responsible for some or all of the bad debt expense related to the underlying customers being serviced by the office. To support this arrangement, each operating partner is required to maintain a security deposit with us that is recognized as a liability in our financial statements and used as a bad debt reserve for each operating partner. We charge each operating partner’s bad debt reserve account for any accounts receivable aged beyond 90 days. The bad debt reserve account is continually replenished with a portion (typically 5%-10%) of such operating partner’s weekly commission check being directed to fund this account. However, the bad debt reserve account may carry a deficit balance when amounts charged to this reserve exceed amounts otherwise available in the bad debt reserve account. In these circumstances, deficit bad debt reserve accounts are recognized as a receivable in our financial statements. Further, under the agreement with the operating partner, the operating partner is responsible for such deficits and the operating partner agreements provide that we may withhold all or a portion of future commission checks payable to the operating partner in satisfaction of any deficit balance. Currently, a number of our operating partners have a deficit balance in their bad debt reserve account totaling approximately $879,000 with one operating partner representing approximately $221,000 of that amount. We expect to replenish these funds through the future business operations of these operating partners. However, to the extent any of these operating partners were to cease operations or otherwise be unable to replenish these deficit accounts, we would be at risk of loss for any such amount. While there can be no assurance as to the amount that may be recovered in the future, based upon, among others: (i) our historic collection experience; (ii) the portion of the bad debt recoverable from the individual operating partners responsible for the account; and (iii) the anticipated recovery likely from these customers; we do not believe its exposure to these customers will be material.

Failure to comply with obligations as an “indirect air carrier” could result in penalties and fines and limit our ability to ship freight.

We are regulated, among other things, as “indirect air carriers” by the Transportation Security Administration of the Department of Homeland Security. These agencies provide requirements, guidance and, in some cases, administer licensing requirements and processes applicable to the freight forwarding industry. We actively monitor our compliance and the compliance of our subsidiaries with such agency requirements to ensure that we, our subsidiaries, and our operating partners satisfactorily complete applicable security requirements and satisfy applicable qualifications and implement the required policies and procedures. We rely on our operating partners offices to comply with such requirements, however, we do not actively monitor compliance by our operating partners until we are made aware that there is an inspection by such agencies or we are notified of a potential violation. These agencies generally require companies to fulfill these qualifications prior to and while operating as a freight forwarder. Failure to comply with such requirements, policies and procedures could result in penalties and fines. To date, a limited number of our operating partners have been out of compliance with the “indirect air carrier” regulations, resulting in small fines to us, which are then charged to the operating partners. While we are working with our operating partners to eliminate any additional violations, there is no assurance that additional violations will not take place, which could result in penalties or fines or, in the extreme case, limits on our ability to ship freight.

If we fail to enhance and integrate information technology systems or we fail to upgrade or replace our information technology systems to handle increased volumes and levels of complexity, meet the demands of our operating partners and customers and protect against disruptions of our operations, we may suffer a loss in our business.

Increasingly, we compete for business based upon the flexibility, sophistication and security of the information technology systems supporting our services. The failure of the hardware or software that supports our information technology systems, the loss of data contained in the systems, or the inability to access or interact with our web site or connect electronically, could significantly disrupt our operations, prevent customers from placing orders, or cause us to lose inventory items, orders or customers. If our information technology systems are unable to handle additional volume for our operations as our business and scope of services grow, our service levels and operating efficiency will decline. In addition, we expect our operating partners to continue to demand more sophisticated, fully integrated information technology systems from us as customers demand the same from their supply chain services providers. If we are unable to enhance, maintain and protect our information technology systems or we fail to upgrade or replace our information technology systems to handle increased volumes and levels of complexity, meet the demands of our operating partners and customers and protect against disruptions of our operations, our business may be adversely affected.

Our information technology systems are subject to risks we cannot control.

Our information technology systems are dependent upon third-party communications providers, web browsers, telephone systems and other aspects of the internet infrastructure that have experienced significant system failures and electrical outages in the past. Our systems are susceptible to outages due to fire, floods, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins and similar events. Despite our implementation of network security measures, our servers are vulnerable to computer viruses, break-ins and similar disruptions from unauthorized tampering with our computer systems. The occurrence of any of these events could disrupt or damage our information technology systems and inhibit our internal operations, and our ability to provide services to our customers.

We are dependent on third-party carriers to transport our customers’ cargo.

We rely on commercial airfreight carriers and air charter operators, ocean freight carriers, trucking companies, major U.S. railroads, other transportation companies, draymen and longshoremen for the movement of our customers’ cargo. Consequently, our ability to provide services for our customers could be adversely impacted by: shortages in available cargo capacity; changes by carriers and transportation companies in policies and practices such as scheduling, pricing, payment terms and frequency of service or increases in the cost of fuel, taxes and labor; and other factors not within our control. Reductions in airfreight or ocean freight capacity could negatively impact our yields. Material interruptions in service or stoppages in transportation, whether caused by strike, work stoppage, lock-out, slowdown or otherwise, could adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our profitability depends on our ability to effectively manage our cost structure as we grow the business.

As we continue to increase our revenue through the expansion of our network of independent operating partners, we must maintain an appropriate cost structure to maintain and increase our profitability. While we intend to increase our revenue by increasing the number and quality of our operating partner relationships, by strategic acquisitions, and by maintaining and expanding our gross profit margins by reducing transportation costs, our profitability will be driven by our ability to manage our operating partner commissions, personnel and general and administrative costs as a function of our net revenues. There can be no assurances that we will be able to increase revenues or maintain profitability.

Our business is subject to seasonal trends.

Historically, our operating results have been subject to seasonal trends when measured on a quarterly basis. Our first and fourth fiscal quarters are traditionally weaker compared with our second and third fiscal quarters. As a result, our quarterly operating results are likely to continue to fluctuate. This trend is dependent on numerous factors, including the markets in which we operate, holiday seasons, climate, economic conditions and numerous other factors. A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from customers in industries whose shipping patterns are tied closely to consumer demand which can sometimes be difficult to predict or are based on just-in-time production schedules. Therefore, our revenue is, to a large degree, affected by factors that are outside of our control. There can be no assurance that our historic operating patterns will continue in future periods as we cannot influence or forecast many of these factors.

Comparisons of our operating results from period to period are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indicator of future performance.

Our operating results have fluctuated in the past and likely will continue to fluctuate in the future because of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from customers in industries whose shipping patterns are tied closely to economic trends and consumer demand that can be difficult to predict, or are based on just-in-time production schedules. Because our quarterly revenues and operating results vary significantly, comparisons of our results from period to period are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indicator of future performance. Additionally, there can be no assurance that our historic operating patterns will continue in future periods as we cannot influence or forecast many of these factors.

Economic recessions and other factors that reduce freight volumes could have a material adverse impact on our business.

The transportation industry historically has experienced cyclical fluctuations in financial results due to economic recession, downturns in business cycles of our customers, interest rate fluctuations and other economic factors beyond our control. Deterioration in the economic environment subjects our business to various risks that may have a material impact on our operating results and cause us to not reach our long-term growth goals, and which may include the following:

·

A reduction in overall freight volumes in the marketplace reduces our opportunities for growth. In addition, if a downturn in our customers’ business cycles causes a reduction in the volume of freight shipped by those customers, our operating results could be adversely affected;

·

Some of our customers may face economic difficulties and may not be able to pay us, and some may go out of business. In addition, some customers may not pay us as quickly as they have in the past, causing our working capital needs to increase;

·

A significant number of our transportation providers may go out of business and we may be unable to secure sufficient equipment or other transportation services to meet our commitments to our customers; and

·

We may not be able to appropriately adjust our expenses to changing market demands. In order to maintain high variability in our business model, it is necessary to adjust staffing levels to changing market demands. In periods of rapid change, it is more difficult to match our staffing level to our business needs. In addition, we have other primarily variable expenses that are fixed for a period of time, and we may not be able to adequately adjust them in a period of rapid change in market demand.

We face intense competition in the freight forwarding, logistics and supply chain management industry.

The freight forwarding, logistics and supply chain management industry is intensely competitive and is expected to remain so for the foreseeable future. We face competition from a number of companies, including many that have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources. Customers increasingly are turning to competitive bidding situations soliciting bids from a number of competitors, including competitors that are larger than us. Increased competition may lead to revenue reductions, reduced profit margins, or a loss of market share, any one of which could harm our business. There are many factors that could impair our profitability, including the following:

·

competition with other transportation services companies, some of which have a broader coverage network, a wider range of services, more fully developed information technology systems and greater capital resources than we do;

·

reduction by our competitors of their rates to gain business, especially during times of declining growth rates in the economy, which reductions may limit our ability to maintain or increase rates, maintain our operating margins or maintain significant growth in our business;

·

shift in the business of shippers to asset-based trucking companies that also offer brokerage services in order to secure access to those companies’ trucking capacity, particularly in times of tight industry-wide capacity;

·

solicitation by shippers of bids from multiple transportation providers for their shipping needs and the resulting depression of freight rates or loss of business to competitors; and

·

establishment by our competitors of cooperative relationships to increase their ability to address shipper needs.

Our industry is consolidating and if we cannot gain sufficient market presence in our industry, we may not be able to compete successfully against larger companies in our industry.

There currently is a trend within our industry toward consolidation of the niche players into larger companies that are attempting to increase global operations through the acquisition of regional and local freight forwarders. If we cannot gain sufficient market presence or otherwise establish a successful strategy in our industry, we may not be able to compete successfully against larger companies in our industry with global operations.

If we are not able to limit our liability for customers’ claims through contract terms and limit our exposure through the purchase of insurance, we could be required to pay large amounts to our customers as compensation for their claims and our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

In general, we seek to limit by contract and/or International Conventions and laws our liability to our customers for loss or damage to their goods to $20 per kilogram (approximately $9.07 per pound) and $500 per carton or customary unit, for ocean freight shipments, depending on the International Convention. For truck/land based risks, there are a variety of limits ranging from a nominal amount to full value. However, because a freight forwarder relationship to an airline or ocean carrier is that of a shipper to a carrier, the airline or ocean carrier generally assumes the same responsibility to us as we assume to our customers. When we act in the capacity of an authorized agent for an air or ocean carrier, the carrier, rather than us, assumes liability for the safe delivery of the customer’s cargo to its ultimate destination, unless due to our own errors and omissions.

We have, from time to time, made payments to our customers for claims related to our services and may make such payments in the future. Should we experience an increase in the number or size of such claims or an increase in liability pursuant to claims or unfavorable resolutions of claims, our results could be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that our insurance coverage will provide us with adequate coverage for such claims or that the maximum amounts for which we are liable in connection with our services will not change in the future or exceed our insurance levels. As with every insurance policy, there are limits, exclusions and deductibles that apply and we could be subject to claims for which insurance coverage may be inadequate or even disputed and such claims could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, significant increases in insurance costs could reduce our profitability.

We may be subject to various claims and lawsuits that could result in significant expenditures.

The nature of our business exposes us to the potential for various claims and litigation related to labor and employment (including wage-and-hour litigation relating to independent contractor drivers, sales representatives, brokerage agents and other individuals), personal injury, property damage, business practices, environmental liability and other matters. Any material litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Our failure to comply with, or the costs of complying with, government regulation could negatively affect our results of operation.

Our business is subject to heavy, evolving, complex and increasing regulation by national and international sources. Regulatory changes could affect the economics of our industry by requiring changes in operating practices or influencing the demand for, and the costs of providing, services to customers. Future regulation and our failure to comply with any applicable regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.

If we are unable to maintain our brand images and corporate reputation, our business may suffer.

Our success depends in part on our ability to maintain the image of the Radiant, Airgroup, Adcom, DBA and On Time brands and our reputation for providing excellent service to our customers. Service quality issues, actual or perceived, even when false or unfounded, could tarnish the image of our brand and may cause customers to use other freight-forwarding companies. Damage to our reputation and loss of brand equity could reduce demand for our services and thus have an adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations, and could require additional resources to rebuild our reputation and restore the value of our brands.

We operate with a significant amount of indebtedness, which is secured by our accounts receivable and other assets, subject to variable interest rates and contain restrictive covenants.

Our substantial indebtedness could have adverse consequences, such as:

·

require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness with our Lender, which could reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund future operating capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;

·

expose us to the risk of increased interest rates, as our borrowings on our secured senior credit facilities are at variable rates of interest;

·

require us to sell assets to reduce indebtedness or influence our decisions about whether to do so;

·

increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

·

limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry;

·

restrict us from making strategic acquisitions, buying assets or pursuing business opportunities;

11


·

limit, along with the financial and other restrictive covenants in our indebtedness, among other things, our ability to borrow additional funds; and

·

violating covenants in these agreements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations; including substantially increasing our cost of borrowing and restricting our future operations, if not cured or waived. In addition, the lender may be able to terminate any commitments they had made to supply us with further funds. Accordingly, we may not be able to fully repay our debt obligations, if some or all of our debt obligations are accelerated upon an event of default.

Our Bank of America credit facility contains financial covenants that may limit current availability and impose ongoing operational limitations and risk of compliance.

We currently maintain a $30.0 million revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Lender”), which includes a $2.0 million sublimit to support letters of credit. Under the terms of the credit facility, we are required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.1 to 1.0 in the event that availability is less than $5.0 million or an event of default was to occur.

Our compliance with the financial covenants of our credit facility is particularly important given the materiality of this facility to our day-to-day operations and overall acquisition strategy. Our debt capacity, subject to the requisite collateral at an advance rate of up to 85% of eligible domestic accounts receivable and, subject to certain sub-limits, 75% of eligible accrued but unbilled receivables and eligible foreign accounts receivables, is limited to a multiple of our consolidated EBITDA (as adjusted) as measured on a trailing twelve month basis. If we fail to comply with these covenants and are unable to secure a waiver or other relief, our financial condition would be materially weakened and our ability to fund day-to-day operations would be materially and adversely affected. Accordingly, we intend to employ EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as management tools to measure our historical financial performance and as a benchmark for future financial flexibility.

Under our credit facility, we are prohibited from declaring and paying dividends unless: (i) there are no existing events of default under the credit facility or an event of default would not be caused by the declaration or payment of such dividend, and (ii) the amount available under the credit facility after the pro forma effect of such dividend is equal to the greater of 20% of the borrowing base under the credit facility or $5.0 million.

Dependence on key personnel.

For the foreseeable future, our success will depend largely on the continued services of our Chief Executive Officer, Bohn H. Crain, as well as certain of the other key executives and executives of our acquired businesses because of their collective industry knowledge, marketing skills and relationships with vendors, customers and operating partners. We have secured employment arrangements with each of these individuals, which contain non-competition covenants that survive their actual term of employment. Nevertheless, should any of these individuals leave us, we could have difficulty replacing them with qualified individuals and it could have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations.

Our results of operations could vary as a result of the methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies.

The methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on our results of operations (see “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K). Such methods, estimates, and judgments are, by their nature, subject to substantial risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, and factors may arise over time that lead us to change our methods, estimates, and judgments. Changes in those methods, estimates, and judgments could significantly affect our results of operations. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may affect our operations and our profitability.

As a result of the potential for terrorist attacks, federal, state and municipal authorities have implemented and continue to follow various security measures, including checkpoints and travel restrictions on large trucks. Such measures may reduce the productivity of our independent contractors and transportation providers or increase the costs associated with their operations, which we could be forced to bear. For example, security measures imposed at bridges, tunnels, border crossings and other points on key trucking routes may cause delays and increase the non-driving time of our independent contractors and transportation providers, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Congress has mandated security screening of air cargo traveling on passenger airlines effective July 31, 2010, and for ocean freight, effective July 2012, which may increase costs associated with our air and freight forwarding operations. War, risk of war, or a terrorist attack also may have an adverse effect on the economy. A decline in economic activity could adversely affect our revenues or restrict our future growth. Instability in the financial markets as a result of terrorism or war also could impact our ability to raise capital. In addition, the insurance premiums charged for some or all of the coverage currently maintained by us could increase dramatically or such coverage could be unavailable in the future.

12


We intend to continue growing our international operations and will become increasingly subject to variations in the international trade market.

We provide services to customers engaged in international commerce, and intend to grow our international business in the coming years. For the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, international transportation revenue accounted for 39% and 46% of our revenue, respectively. All factors that affect international trade have the potential to expand or contract our international business and impact our operating results. For example, international trade is influenced by, among other things:

·

currency exchange rates and currency control regulations;

·

interest rate fluctuations;

·

changes in governmental policies, such as taxation, quota restrictions, tariffs, other forms of trade barriers and/or restrictions and trade accords;

·

changes in and application of international and domestic customs, trade and security regulations;

·

wars, strikes, civil unrest, acts of terrorism, and other conflicts, such as the recent conflict in the Ukraine that has led to the imposition of economic sanctions by the United States and the European Union against Russia;

·

natural disasters and pandemics;

·

changes in consumer attitudes regarding goods made in countries other than their own;

·

changes in availability of credit;

·

changes in the price and readily available quantities of oil and other petroleum-related products; and

·

increased global concerns regarding environmental sustainability.

If any of the foregoing factors have a negative effect on the international trade market, we will likely suffer a decrease in our international business, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

In connection with our international business, we are subject to certain foreign regulatory requirements, and any failure to comply with these requirements could be detrimental to our business.

We provide services in parts of the world where common business practices could constitute violations of the anti-corruption laws, rules, regulations and decrees of the United States, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and of all other countries in which we conduct business; as well as trade control laws, or laws, regulations and Executive Orders imposing embargoes and sanctions; and anti-boycott laws and regulations. Compliance with these laws, rules, regulations and decrees is dependent on our employees, subcontractors, consultants, agents, third-party brokers and customers, whose individual actions could violate these laws, rules, regulations and decrees. Failure to comply could result in substantial penalties, damages to our reputation and restrictions on our ability to conduct business. In addition, any investigation or litigation related to such violations may require significant management time and could cause us to incur extensive legal and related costs, all of which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and operating cash flows.

Risks Related to our Acquisition Strategy

There is a scarcity of and competition for acquisition opportunities.

There are a limited number of operating companies available for acquisition that we deem to be desirable targets. In addition, there is a very high level of competition among companies seeking to acquire these operating companies. We are and will continue to be a very minor participant in the business of seeking acquisitions of these types of companies. A large number of established and well-financed entities are active in acquiring interests in companies that we may find to be desirable acquisition candidates. Many of these entities have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than us. Consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in negotiating and executing possible acquisitions of these businesses. Even if we are able to successfully compete with these entities, this competition may affect the terms of completed transactions and, as a result, we may pay more than we expected for potential acquisitions. We may not be able to identify operating companies that complement our strategy, and even if we identify a company that complements our strategy, we may be unable to complete an acquisition of such a company for many reasons, including:

·

failure to agree on the terms necessary for a transaction, such as the purchase price;

·

incompatibility between our operational strategies or management philosophies with those of the potential acquiree;

·

competition from other acquirers of operating companies;

·

lack of sufficient capital to acquire a profitable logistics company;

13


·

unwillingness of a potential acquiree to agree to subordinate any future payment of earn-outs or promissory notes to the payments due to our Lender; and

·

unwillingness of a potential acquiree to work with our management.

Risks related to acquisition financing.

We have a limited amount of financial resources and our ability to make additional acquisitions without securing additional financing from outside sources is limited. In order to continue to pursue our acquisition strategy, we may be required to obtain additional financing. We intend to obtain such financing through a combination of traditional debt financing or the placement of debt and equity securities. We may finance some portion of our future acquisitions by either issuing equity or by using shares of our common stock for all or a portion of the purchase price for such businesses. In the event that our common stock does not attain or maintain a sufficient market value, or potential acquisition candidates are otherwise unwilling to accept our common stock as part of the purchase price for the sale of their businesses, we may be required to use more of our cash resources, if available, in order to maintain our acquisition program. If we do not have sufficient cash resources, we will not be able to complete acquisitions and our growth could be limited unless we are able to obtain additional capital through debt or equity financings. The terms of our credit facility requires that we obtain Lender’s consent prior to securing additional debt financing. There could be circumstances in which our ability to obtain additional debt financing could be constrained if we are unable to secure such consent.

Our Bank of America credit facility places certain limits on the acquisitions we may make.

Under the terms of our credit facility, we may be required to obtain the Lender’s consent prior to making any additional acquisitions.

We are permitted to make additional acquisitions without the consent of the Lender only if certain conditions are satisfied. These conditions include the following: (i) the absence of an event of default under the credit facility; (ii) the acquisition is consensual; (iii) the company to be acquired must be in the transportation and logistics industry, located in the United States or certain other approved jurisdictions, and have a positive EBITDA for the twelve month period most recently ended prior to such acquisitions; (iv) no debt or liens may be incurred, assumed or result from the acquisition, subject to limited exceptions; and (v) after giving effect for the funding of the acquisition, we must have undrawn availability under the credit facility of at least the greater of 20% of the borrowing base or $5,000,000.

In the event we are not able to satisfy the conditions of the credit facility in connection with a proposed acquisition, we must either forego the acquisition, obtain the Lender’s consent, or retire the credit facility. This may prevent us from completing acquisitions that we determine are desirable from a business perspective and limit or slow our ability to achieve the critical mass we need to achieve our strategic objectives.

To the extent we make any material acquisitions, our earnings will be adversely affected by non-cash charges relating to the amortization of intangibles, which may cause our stock price to decline.

Under applicable accounting standards, purchasers are required to allocate the total consideration paid in a business combination to the identified acquired assets and liabilities based on their fair values at the time of acquisition. The excess of the consideration paid to acquire a business over the fair value of the identifiable tangible assets acquired must be allocated among identifiable intangible assets including goodwill. The amount allocated to goodwill is not subject to amortization. However, it is tested at least annually for impairment. The amount allocated to identifiable intangibles, such as customer relationships and the like, is amortized over the life of these intangible assets. We expect that this will subject us to periodic charges against our earnings to the extent of the amortization incurred for that period. Because our business strategy focuses, in part, on growth through acquisitions, our future earnings will be subject to greater non-cash amortization charges than a company whose earnings are derived solely from organic growth. As a result, we will experience an increase in non-cash charges related to the amortization of intangible assets acquired in our acquisitions. Our financial statements will show that our intangible assets are diminishing in value, when, in fact, we believe they may be increasing because we are growing the value of our intangible assets (e.g. customer relationships). Because of this discrepancy, we believe our EBITDA, a measure of financial performance that does not conform to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), provides a meaningful measure of our financial performance. However, the investment community generally measures a public company’s performance by its net income. Further, the financial covenants of our credit facility adjust EBITDA to exclude costs related to share based compensation and other non-cash charges. Thus, we believe EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA, provide a meaningful measure of our financial performance. If the investment community elects to place more emphasis on net income, the future price of our common stock could be adversely affected.

14


We are not obligated to follow any particular criteria or standards for identifying acquisition candidates.

Even though we have developed general acquisition guidelines, other than as required under the credit facility, we are not obligated to follow any particular operating, financial, geographic or other criteria in evaluating candidates for potential acquisitions or business combinations. We will target businesses that we believe will provide the best potential long-term financial return for our stockholders and we will determine the purchase price and other terms and conditions of acquisitions. Our stockholders will not have the opportunity to evaluate the relevant economic, financial and other information that our management team will use and consider in deciding whether or not to enter into a particular transaction.

We may be required to incur a significant amount of indebtedness in order to successfully implement our acquisition strategy.

Subject to the restrictions contained in the credit facility, we may be required to incur a significant amount of indebtedness in order to complete future acquisitions. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flow from the operations of acquired businesses to make scheduled payments of principal and interest on the indebtedness, then we will be required to use our capital for such payments. This will restrict our ability to make additional acquisitions. We may also be forced to sell an acquired business in order to satisfy indebtedness. We cannot be certain that we will be able to operate profitably once we incur this indebtedness or that we will be able to generate a sufficient amount of proceeds from the ultimate disposition of such acquired businesses to repay the indebtedness incurred to make these acquisitions.

We may experience difficulties in integrating the operations, personnel and assets of acquired businesses that may disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our operating results.

A core component of our business plan is to acquire businesses and assets in the transportation and logistics industry. There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify, acquire or profitably manage businesses or successfully integrate acquired businesses into the Company without substantial costs, delays or other operational or financial problems. Such acquisitions also involve numerous operational risks, including:

·

difficulties in integrating operations, technologies, services and personnel;

·

the diversion of financial and management resources from existing operations;

·

the risk of entering new markets;

·

the potential loss of existing or acquired operating partners following an acquisition;

·

the potential loss of key employees following an acquisition and the associated risk of competitive efforts from such departed personnel;

·

possible legal disputes with the acquired company following an acquisition; and

·

the inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition or investment costs.

As a result, if we fail to properly evaluate and execute any acquisitions or investments, our business and prospects may be seriously harmed.

We attempt to mitigate these risks, in part, by providing that a portion of the ultimate purchase price for each acquired operation is structured as contingent consideration (i.e. an earn-out) based on the future financial performance of the business. To the extent that an acquired operation underperforms relative to anticipated earnings levels, this will result in the recognition of a non-cash gain on the change in contingent consideration as reported in the most recent fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 in connection with the performance of the Company’s ISLA, ALBS, Marvir, IFS, On Time and PCA operations. In the alternative, to the extent an acquired operation over performs anticipated earnings levels, we will recognize a non-cash loss on change in contingent consideration.

We recently acquired On Time Express, Inc. and are currently integrating its business into our operations.

On October 1, 2013, we purchased 100% of the capital stock of On Time, our largest acquisition to date, which will operate as our wholly-owned subsidiary. Payment of the full purchase price is contingent upon On Time achieving certain profitability targets, which it may not be able to achieve. There can be no assurance of On Time’s ability following the acquisition to maintain and grow its revenues and operating margins in a manner consistent with its most recent operating results, our ability to integrate On Time’s operations with our historic operations, or our ability to realize cost synergies through On Time’s line-haul network, as well as the effect that the acquisition may have on On Time’s existing customers and employees.

15


Historically, On Time’s business has been dependent on a small number of customers.

A significant portion of On Time’s revenues are derived from a relatively small number of customers. On Time does not have long-term contracts with such customers and the relationships could be terminated at any time. A significant loss of business from, or adverse performance by, any of On Time’s large volume customers could have a material adverse effect on On Time’s financial condition and results of operations. The failure to retain the business of these major customers may also have an adverse effect on On Time’s financial results if we are unable to replace these customers or if new customers are not as profitable. On Time is also subject to credit risk associated with customer concentration. If one or more of its largest customers were to become bankrupt, insolvent or otherwise unable to pay for the services provided, On Time may incur significant write-offs of accounts receivable that may have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We are currently involved in a legal dispute emanating from recent acquisition of DBA.

In December 2012, we recovered an award in arbitration against the former shareholders of DBA. The award arose out of a prior arbitration action against the former shareholders of DBA in which we asserted, among others, certain claims for indemnification under the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “DBA Agreement”) dated March 29, 2011, based upon breaches that we believe occurred under the DBA Agreement. These breaches included, among others, the breach of certain non-competition and non-solicitation covenants by Paul Pollara, one of the DBA selling shareholders, and Bretta Santini Pollara, a former DBA employee and wife of Mr. Pollara.

In a related matter, in December 2011, Ms. Pollara filed a claim for declaratory relief against us seeking an order stipulating that she is not bound by the non-compete covenant contained within the DBA Agreement signed by her husband, Mr. Pollara. On January 23, 2012, we filed a counterclaim against Ms. Pollara, her company Santini Productions, Daniel Reffner (a former employee of the Company now working for Ms. Pollara), and Oceanair, Inc. (a company doing business with Santini Productions). Our counterclaim alleges claims for, among others, statutory and common law misappropriation of trade secrets, and sought damages in excess of $1,000,000.

On April 25, 2014, a jury returned a verdict in our favor in the amount of $1,500,000, but the judge entered a judgment notwithstanding the verdict and dismissed the case. We have filed an appeal of the judge’s ruling and expect the appeal to be heard by the summer of 2015.

Risks Related to our Common Stock

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law may make a contested takeover more difficult.

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”) could deter a change in our management or render more difficult an attempt to obtain control of us, even if such a proposal is favored by a majority of our stockholders. For example, we are subject to the provisions of the DGCL that prohibit a public Delaware corporation from engaging in a broad range of business combinations with a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns 15% or more of such corporation’s outstanding voting shares (an “interested stockholder”) for three years after the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. Our certificate of incorporation provides that directors may only be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of 75% of our outstanding shares and that amendments to our bylaws require the affirmative vote of holders of two-thirds of our outstanding shares. Our certificate of incorporation also includes undesignated preferred stock, which may enable our Board of Directors to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise. Finally, our bylaws include an advance notice procedure for stockholders to nominate directors or submit proposals at a stockholders meeting.

Trading in our common stock has been limited and there is no significant trading market for our common stock.

Although our common stock is traded on the NYSE MKT, it may remain relatively illiquid, or “thinly traded.” Because of this limited liquidity, stockholders may be unable to sell their shares. The trading price of our shares may from time to time fluctuate widely. The trading price may be affected by a number of factors including events described in the risk factors set forth in this report as well as our operating results, financial condition, announcements, general conditions in the industry and the financial markets, and other events or factors. In recent years, broad stock market indices, in general, and smaller capitalization companies, in particular, have experienced substantial price fluctuations. In a volatile market, we may experience wide fluctuations in the market price of our common stock. These fluctuations may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock.

16


The influx of additional shares of our common stock onto the market may create downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock.

We have completed several acquisitions which often include the issuance of additional shares pursuant to the purchase agreements. Since June 30, 2013 we have issued approximately 280,591 unregistered shares of our common stock as part of the purchase price, or associated with the financing of a transaction. In addition, we may issue additional shares in connection with such acquisitions upon the achievement of certain earn-out thresholds. The availability of those shares for sale to the public under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and sale of such shares in public markets could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Such an adverse effect on the market price would make it more difficult for us to sell our equity securities in the future at prices we deem appropriate or to use our shares as currency for future acquisitions which will make it more difficult to execute our acquisition strategy.

The issuance of additional shares may result in additional dilution to our existing stockholders.

We currently have in place a universal shelf registration statement which allows us to publicly issue up to $75 million of additional securities, including debt, common stock, preferred stock, and warrants. The shelf registration is intended to provide greater flexibility to us in financing growth or changing our capital structure.

At any time we may make private offerings of our securities. We have issued, and may be required to issue, additional shares of common stock or common stock equivalents in payment of the purchase price of businesses we have acquired. This will have the effect of further increasing the number of shares outstanding. In connection with future acquisitions, we may undertake the issuance of more shares of common stock without notice to our then existing stockholders. We may also issue additional shares in order to, among other things, compensate employees or consultants or for other valid business reasons in the discretion of our Board of Directors, which could result in diluting the interests of our existing stockholders.

The exercise or conversion of our outstanding options, warrants or other convertible securities or any derivative securities we issue in the future will result in the dilution of the ownership interests of our existing stockholders and may create downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. We are currently authorized to issue 100 million shares of common stock. As of September 19, 2014, we had 34,391,805 outstanding shares of common stock. We may in the future issue up to 5,275,044 additional shares of our common stock upon exercise of existing options.

We may issue shares of preferred stock with greater rights than our common stock.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes our Board of Directors to issue shares of preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms for those shares without the approval of our stockholders. Any such preferred stock we may issue in the future could rank ahead of our common stock in many ways, including in terms of dividends, liquidation rights, and voting rights.

As we do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock, investors in our shares of common stock will not receive any dividend income.

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock since our inception and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any dividends that we may pay in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors, and will depend on our future earnings, any applicable regulatory considerations, our financial requirements and other similarly unpredictable factors. Our ability to pay dividends is further limited by the terms of our credit facility. Accordingly, investors seeking dividend income should not purchase our stock.

From time to time, we publish certain forward-looking information regarding our future anticipated performance, which information may be materially different than our actual future results.

From time to time, we publish certain forward-looking information regarding our future anticipated performance, including guidance with respect to our estimated future revenues and profits. This forward-looking information is not a guaranty and is 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 information. While it is impossible to identify all of the factors that may cause our actual operating performance, events, trends or plans to differ materially from those set forth in such forward-looking information, such factors include the inherent risks associated with our recent and future acquisitions, our operations, management and other outside competitive and economic influences on our business. Important factors with regard to our recent acquisitions that could cause our actual results to differ from our expectations, include but are not limited to: our ability to maintain the future operations of our recently acquired businesses in a manner consistent with their past practices; our recently acquired businesses will be able to maintain and grow their revenues and operating margins in a manner consistent with their most recent results of operations; our ability to integrate the operations of such businesses with our existing operations, as well as our ability to realize expected financial and operational cost and

17


revenue synergies through such integration; our reliance on the acquired management teams and the continued customer relationships provided by the acquired businesses; the effect that these acquisitions will have on their existing customers and employees; the effect that the acquisitions will have on our historic and existing network of locations; and any material adverse change in the composition of their customers. Important additional factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our expectations include, but are not limited to, our ability to: use our Bellevue, Washington operations as a “platform” upon which we can build a profitable global transportation and supply chain management company; retain and build upon the relationships we have with our operating partners; continue the development of our back-office infrastructure and transportation and accounting systems in a manner sufficient to service our expanding revenues and network of operating locations; maintain and enhance the future operations of our company owned operating locations; continue growing our business and maintain historical or increased gross profit margins; locate suitable acquisition opportunities; secure the financing necessary to complete any acquisition opportunities we locate; assess and respond to competitive practices in the industries in which we compete; mitigate, to the best extent possible, our dependence on current management and certain of our larger operating partners; assess and respond to the impact of current and future laws and governmental regulations affecting the transportation industry in general and our operations in particular; and assess and respond to such other factors that may be identified from time to time in our SEC filings and other public announcements.

Ineffective internal controls could impact our business and operating results.

Our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud. Even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, including any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or if we experience difficulties in their implementation, our business and operating results could be harmed and we could fail to meet our financial reporting obligations.

Risks Related to our 9.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Shares”).

We cannot assure you that quarterly dividends on, or any other payments in respect of, the Series A Preferred Shares will be made timely or at all.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to pay quarterly dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares or to redeem the Series A Preferred Shares, if we wanted to do so. Quarterly dividends on our Series A Preferred Shares will be paid from funds legally available for such purpose when, as and if declared by our board of directors. You should be aware that certain factors may influence our decision, or adversely affect our ability, to pay dividends on, or make other payments in respect of, our Series A Preferred Shares, including, among other things:

·

the amount of our available cash or other liquid assets, including the impact of any liquidity shortfalls caused by the below-described restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to generate and transfer cash to us;

·

any of the events described our filings with the SEC or the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein that impact our future financial position or performance;

·

our ability to service and refinance our current and future indebtedness;

·

changes in our cash requirements to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions or other operational or strategic initiatives;

·

our ability to borrow or raise additional capital to satisfy our capital needs;

·

restrictions imposed by our existing, or any future, credit facilities, debt securities or leases, including restricted payment and leverage covenants that could limit our ability to make payments to holders of the Series A Preferred Shares; and

·

limitations on cash payments to shareholders under Delaware law, including limitations that require dividend payments be made out of surplus or, subject to certain limitations, out of net profits for the then-current or preceding year in the event there is no surplus.

Based on its evaluation of these and other relevant factors, our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, decide not to declare a dividend on the Series A Preferred Shares for any quarterly period for any reason, regardless of whether we have funds legally available for such purpose. In such event, the sole recourse will be the rights as a holder of Series A Preferred Shares specified in the certificate of designation for such shares, including the right to cumulative dividends and the further right under certain specified circumstances to additional interest and limited conditional voting rights.

In addition, under our credit facility, we are prohibited from declaring and paying dividends unless: (i) there are no existing events of default under the credit facility or an event of default would not be caused by the declaration or payment of such dividend, and (ii) the amount available under the credit facility after the pro forma effect of such dividend is equal to the greater of 20% of the borrowing base under the credit facility or $5.0 million.

18


The Series A Preferred Shares represent perpetual equity interests.

The Series A Preferred Shares represent perpetual equity interests in us and, unlike our indebtedness, will not entitle the holders thereof to receive payment of a principal amount at a particular date. As a result, holders of the Series A Preferred Shares may be required to bear the financial risks of an investment in the Series A Preferred Shares for an indefinite period of time. In addition, the Series A Preferred Shares will rank junior to all our indebtedness and other liabilities, and to any other senior securities we may issue in the future with respect to assets available to satisfy claims against us.

Increases in market interest rates may adversely affect the trading price of our Series A Preferred Shares.

One of the factors that will influence the trading price of our Series A Preferred Shares will be the dividend yield on the Series A Preferred Shares relative to market interest rates. An increase in market interest rates, which are currently at low levels relative to historical rates, may reduce demand for our Series A Preferred Shares and would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease funds available for distribution. Accordingly, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of our Series A Preferred Shares to decrease.

The Series A Preferred Shares have not been rated, and the lack of a rating may adversely affect the trading price of the Series A Preferred Shares.

We have not sought to obtain a rating for the Series A Preferred Shares, and the shares may never be rated. It is possible, however, that one or more rating agencies might independently determine to assign a rating to the Series A Preferred Shares or that we may elect to obtain a rating of our Series A Preferred Shares in the future. In addition, we may elect to issue other securities for which we may seek to obtain a rating. The market value of the Series A Preferred Shares could be adversely affected if:

·

any ratings assigned to the Series A Preferred Shares in the future or to other securities we issue in the future are lower than market expectations or are subsequently lowered or withdrawn, or

·

ratings for such other securities would imply a lower relative value for the Series A Preferred Shares.

Our Series A Preferred Shares are junior to our debt liabilities and lease obligations, the debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries and third-party holders’ of equity interests in our subsidiaries and the interests could be diluted by our issuance of additional shares of preferred stock, including additional Series A Preferred Shares, and by other transactions.

Our Series A Preferred Shares are subordinated to all of our existing and future indebtedness and lease obligations. As of June 30, 2014, we and our subsidiaries had outstanding indebtedness and liabilities of approximately $79.0 million, all of which is senior in right of payment to the Series A Preferred Shares. Our existing indebtedness restricts, and our future indebtedness may include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends to preferred shareholders.

Our certificate of incorporation currently authorizes the issuance of up to five million shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series, and we will be permitted, without notice to or consent of the holders of Series A Preferred Shares, to issue additional Series A Preferred Shares or other securities that have rights junior to such shares, up to the maximum aggregate number of authorized shares of our preferred stock. The issuance of additional preferred stock on a parity with or senior to our Series A Preferred Shares would dilute the interests of the holders of our Series A Preferred Shares, and any issuance of preferred stock senior to or on a parity with our Series A Preferred Shares or of additional indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends on, redeem or pay the liquidation preference on our Series A Preferred Shares.

Except in limited circumstances, no provisions relating to our Series A Preferred Shares protect the holders of our Series A Preferred Shares in the event of a highly leveraged or other transaction, including a merger or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all our assets or business, any of which might adversely affect the holders of our Series A Preferred Shares.

Holders of Series A Preferred Shares have extremely limited voting rights.

The voting rights of Series A Preferred Shares is extremely limited. However, in the event that six quarterly dividends, whether consecutive or not, payable on Series A Preferred Shares are in arrears or a listing failure has occurred and is continuing, the holders of Series A Preferred Shares will have the right, voting together as a class with all other classes or series of parity securities upon which like voting rights have conferred and are exercisable, to elect two additional directors to serve on our board of directors.

19


Investors should not expect us to redeem the Series A Preferred Shares on the date the Series A Preferred Shares becomes redeemable by the Company or on any particular date afterwards.

The shares of Series A Preferred Shares have no maturity or mandatory redemption date and are not redeemable at the option of investors under any circumstances. By their terms, the Series A Preferred Shares may be redeemed by us at our option either in whole or in part at any time on or after December 20, 2018 or, under certain circumstances, may be redeemed by us at our option, in whole, sooner than that date. Any decision we may make at any time regarding whether to redeem the Series A Preferred Shares will depend upon a wide variety of factors, including our evaluation of our capital position, our capital requirements and general market conditions at that time. You should not assume that we will redeem the Series A Preferred Shares at any particular time, or at all.

The Series A Preferred Shares are not convertible and purchasers may not realize a corresponding benefit if the trading price of our common stock rises.

The Series A Preferred Shares will not be convertible into common shares or other of our securities and will not have exchange rights or be entitled or subject to any preemptive or similar rights. In addition, the Series A Preferred Shares will earn dividends at a fixed rate (subject to adjustment). Accordingly, as noted in greater detail above, the market value of the Series A Preferred Shares may depend on, among other things, dividend and interest rates for other securities and other investment alternatives and our actual and perceived ability to make dividend or other payments in respect of our Series A Preferred Shares. Moreover, our right to redeem the Series A Preferred Shares on or after December 20, 2018 or in the event of a change in control could impose a ceiling on their value.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our principal executive offices are located at 405 114th Avenue S.E., Third Floor, Bellevue, Washington 98004 and consist of 13,018 feet of office space which we lease for an average of $16,020 per month over the life of the lease expiring May 31, 2021. We also sublease 3,110 feet of office space in the same building for an average of $4,067 per month over the life of the sublease expiring on May 31, 2020. In addition, we lease 92,503 feet of space for our Company-owned office in Somerset, New Jersey for an average of $43,816 per month over the life of the lease expiring November 30, 2014. We lease 22,653 feet of space for our Company-owned office in Carson, California for an average of $18,250 per month over the life of the lease expiring January 31, 2016. For our former Company-owned office in Hawthorne, California, we lease 140,200 of space in two neighboring buildings for an average of $88,403 per month over the life of lease expiring February 29, 2016. The entire facility is subleased for an average of $77,671 per month and expires at the same time. We lease 25,090 and 16,922 feet of space for our On Time facilities in Phoenix, Arizona and Dallas Texas, respectively, for $40,000 per month over the life of the lease expiring September 2018. We also have several other locations where we lease an aggregate of 57,765 square feet for an average of $59,574 per month. We believe our current offices are adequately covered by insurance and are sufficient to support our operations for the foreseeable future.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company and our operating subsidiaries are involved in claims, proceedings and litigation, including the following:

DBA Distribution Services, Inc. – Bretta Santini Pollara v. Radiant Logistics, Inc., United States District Court, Central District of California, Case No. 12-344 GAF

In December 2012, we recovered an award in arbitration against the former shareholders of DBA. The award arose out of a prior arbitration action against the former shareholders of DBA in which we asserted, among others, certain claims for indemnification under the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “DBA Agreement”) dated March 29, 2011, based upon breaches that we believe occurred under the DBA Agreement. These breaches included, among others, the breach of certain non-competition and non-solicitation covenants by Paul Pollara, one of the DBA selling shareholders, and Bretta Santini Pollara, a former DBA employee and wife of Mr. Pollara.

In a related matter, in December 2011, Ms. Pollara filed a claim for declaratory relief against us seeking an order stipulating that she is not bound by the non-compete covenant contained within the DBA Agreement signed by her husband, Mr. Pollara. On January 23, 2012, we filed a counterclaim against Ms. Pollara, her company Santini Productions, Daniel Reffner (a former employee of the Company now working for Ms. Pollara), and Oceanair, Inc. (a company doing business with Santini Productions). Our counterclaim alleges claims for, among others, statutory and common law misappropriation of trade secrets, and sought damages in excess of $1,000,000.

20


On April 25, 2014, a jury returned a verdict in our favor in the amount of $1,500,000, but the judge entered a judgment notwithstanding the verdict and dismissed the case. We have filed an appeal of the judge’s ruling and expect the appeal to be heard by the summer of 2015.

Radiant Global Logistics, Inc. and DBA Distribution Services, Inc. (Ingrid Barahona California Class Action), Los Angeles County Superior Court, Case No. BC525802

On October 25, 2013, plaintiff Ingrid Barahona filed a purported class action lawsuit against Radiant Global Logistics, Inc. (“Radiant”), DBA Distribution Services, Inc. (“DBA”), and two third-party staffing companies (collectively, the “Staffing Defendants”) with whom Radiant and DBA contracted for temporary employees. In the lawsuit, Ms. Barahona seeks damages and penalties under California law alleging that she and the putative class were the subject of unfair and unlawful business practices, including certain wage and hour violations relating to, among others, failure to provide certain rest and meal periods, as well as failure to pay minimum wages and overtime. Ms. Barahona alleges that she was jointly employed by the staffing companies and Radiant and DBA. Radiant and DBA deny Ms. Barahona’s allegations in their entirety, deny that they are liable to Ms. Barahona or the putative class members in any way, and are vigorously defending against these allegations based upon our preliminary evaluation of applicable records and legal standards. In addition, we believe that the plaintiff’s class definition is overly broad and cannot meet California’s class action certification requirements. On August 28, 2014, we filed an Answer to Ms. Barahona’s First Amended Complaint, and the case remains in the early stages of litigation. We are unable to express an opinion as to the final outcome of the matter.

Service By Air, Inc. v. Radiant Global Logistics, Inc., Federal Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, Case No. 14-cv-01754

On March 11, 2014 a lawsuit was filed by Service By Air, Inc. ("SBA"), which is a competitor to Radiant, against Radiant, PCA, and Philippe Gabay ("Gabay"). The case is currently pending. We entered into various agreements with PCA and Gabay on March 1, 2014 in connection with the purchase of certain assets regarding expansion of our operations in the Mid-Atlantic Region of the United States. SBA is claiming unspecified damages against all of the defendants on the grounds that the execution of those agreements, and certain actions after that date violated an agreement to which SBA was a party to with PCA and Gabay that otherwise expired on February 28, 2014. SBA is also claiming that we tortiously interfered with SBA's rights in connection with the expired agreement. We believe that the case is without merit and have filed a motion to dismiss the complaint, which is pending before the court.

We are involved in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are in the very early stages of litigation and therefore difficult to judge their potential materiality. For those claims for which we can judge the materiality, in the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Holders

As of September 18, 2014, the number of stockholders of record of our common stock was 96. However, based upon broker inquiry conducted during September 2014, in conjunction with our proposed 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, we believe there are a substantial number of additional beneficial owners of our common stock who hold their shares in street name.

Dividend Policy

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date, and we have no intention of paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Whether we declare and pay dividends will be determined by our Board of Directors at its discretion, subject to certain limitations imposed under Delaware law. The timing, amount and form of dividends, if any, will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. Our ability to pay dividends is limited by the terms of our credit facility. Under our credit facility, we are prohibited from declaring and paying dividends unless: (i) there are no existing events of default under the credit facility or an event of default would not be caused by the declaration or payment of such dividend, and (ii) the amount available under the credit facility after the pro forma effect of such dividend is equal to the greater of 20% of the borrowing base under the credit facility or $5.0 million.

Transfer Agent

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., 1981 Marcus Avenue, Lake Success, NY 11042, serves as our transfer agent.

Recent Issuance of Unregistered Securities

From July 1, 2013 through the date of this report we issued the following unregistered securities:

·

In October 2013, we issued 237,320 shares of common stock to the former shareholders of On Time in satisfaction of $500,000 of the purchase price.

·

In March 2014, we issued 17,083 shares of common stock to the former owners of PCA in satisfaction of $50,000 of the purchase price.

·

In September 2014, we issued 16,218 shares of common stock to the former shareholders of TNI in satisfaction of $50,000 of the purchase price.

We did not utilize or engage a principal underwriter in connection with any of the above securities transactions. The above securities were only offered and sold to “accredited investors” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Management believes the above shares of common stock were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and result of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other information included elsewhere in this report.

Overview

We are a non-asset based transportation and logistics services company providing customers domestic and international freight forwarding services and other value-added supply chain management services, including customs brokerage, order fulfillment, inventory management and warehousing.

We are executing a strategy to expand our operations through a combination of organic growth and the strategic acquisition of non-asset based transportation and logistics providers meeting our acquisition criteria. Our first acquisition of Airgroup Corporation (“Airgroup”) was completed on January 1, 2006. Airgroup, headquartered in Bellevue, Washington, is a non-asset based logistics company providing domestic and international freight forwarding services through a network of operating partner locations across North America.

We continue to seek additional companies as suitable acquisition candidates and have completed ten acquisitions since our acquisition of Airgroup. Today, RGL, through the Radiant, Airgroup, Adcom, DBA and On Time network brands, has a diversified account base including manufacturers, distributors and retailers that it services using a network of independent carriers through a network of Company-owned and strategic operating partner locations throughout North America and an integrated service partner network serving other key markets around the globe.

Our growth strategy continues to focus on both organic growth and growth through acquisitions. For organic growth, we will focus on strengthening and retaining existing, and expanding new customer operating partner relationships. Since our acquisition of Airgroup in January 2006, we have focused our efforts on the build-out of our network of operating partner locations, as well as enhancing our back-office infrastructure, transportation and accounting systems. We also continue to search for targets that fit within our acquisition criteria.

Performance Metrics

Our principal source of income is derived from freight forwarding services. As a freight forwarder, we arrange for the shipment of our customers’ freight from point of origin to point of destination. Generally, we quote our customers a turnkey cost for the movement of their freight. Our price quote will often depend upon the customer’s time-definite needs (first day through fifth day delivery), special handling needs (heavy equipment, delicate items, environmentally sensitive goods, electronic components, etc.), and the means of transport (motor carrier, air, ocean or rail). In turn, we assume the responsibility for arranging and paying for the underlying means of transportation.

Our transportation revenue represents the total dollar value of services we sell to our customers. Our cost of transportation includes direct costs of transportation, including motor carrier, air, ocean and rail services. We act principally as the service provider to add value in the execution and procurement of these services to our customers. Our net transportation revenue (gross transportation revenue less the direct cost of transportation) is the primary indicator of our ability to source, add value and resell services provided by third parties, and is considered by management to be a key performance measure. In addition, management believes measuring its operating costs as a function of net transportation revenue provides a useful metric, as our ability to control costs as a function of net transportation revenue directly impacts operating earnings.

23


 

Our operating results will be affected as acquisitions occur. Since all acquisitions are made using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations, our financial statements will only include the results of operations and cash flows of acquired companies for periods subsequent to the date of acquisition.

Our GAAP-based net income will be affected by non-cash charges relating to the amortization of customer related intangible assets and other intangible assets attributable to completed acquisitions. Under applicable accounting standards, purchasers are required to allocate the total consideration in a business combination to the identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the time of acquisition. The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is to be allocated to goodwill, which is tested at least annually for impairment. Applicable accounting standards require that we separately account for and value certain identifiable intangible assets based on the unique facts and circumstances of each acquisition. As a result of our acquisition strategy, our net income will include material non-cash charges relating to the amortization of customer related intangible assets and other intangible assets acquired in our acquisitions. Although these charges may increase as we complete more acquisitions, we believe we will be growing the value of our intangible assets (e.g., customer relationships). Thus, we believe that earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, is a useful financial measure for investors because it eliminates the effect of these non-cash costs and provides an important metric for our business.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of income and does not include the effects of preferred stock dividends, 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 furniture and equipment, all amortization charges, including amortization of leasehold improvements and other intangible assets. We then further adjust EBITDA to exclude changes in contingent consideration, expenses specifically attributable to acquisitions, severance and lease termination costs, extraordinary items, share-based compensation expense, non-recurring litigation expenses, 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.

Our operating results are also subject to seasonal trends when measured on a quarterly basis. The impact of seasonality on our business will depend on numerous factors, including the markets in which we operate, holiday seasons, consumer demand and economic conditions. Since our revenue is largely derived from customers whose shipments are dependent upon consumer demand and just-in-time production schedules, the timing of our revenue is often beyond our control. Factors such as shifting demand for retail goods and/or manufacturing production delays could unexpectedly affect the timing of our revenue. As we increase the scale of our operations, seasonal trends in one area of our business may be offset to an extent by opposite trends in another area. We cannot accurately predict the timing of these factors, nor can we accurately estimate the impact of any particular factor, and thus we can give no assurance any historical seasonal patterns will continue in future periods.

Critical Accounting Policies

Accounting policies, methods and estimates are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements prepared by management and are based upon management’s current judgments. These judgments are normally based on knowledge and experience regarding to past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting policies, methods and estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ from management’s current judgments. While there are a number of accounting policies, methods and estimates that affect our financial statements, the areas that are particularly significant include revenue recognition, accruals for the cost of purchased transportation, the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, changes in contingent consideration, accounting for the issuance of shares and share-based compensation, the assessment of the recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, and the establishment of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

We perform an annual impairment test for goodwill. We assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount. After assessing qualitative factors, if further testing is necessary we would go into a 2-step impairment test. The first step of the impairment test requires us to determine the fair value of each reporting unit, and compare the fair value to the reporting unit’s carrying amount. We have only one reporting unit. To the extent a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired and we must perform a second more detailed impairment assessment. The second impairment assessment involves allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to all of its recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the assessment date. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is then compared to the carrying amount of goodwill to quantify an impairment charge as of the assessment date. We typically perform our annual impairment test effective as of April 1 of each year, unless events or circumstances indicate, an impairment may have occurred before that time.

Acquired intangibles consist of customer related intangibles and non-compete agreements arising from our acquisitions. Customer related intangibles are amortized using accelerated methods over approximately five years and non-compete agreements are amortized using the straight line method over the term of the underlying agreements.

24


 

We review long-lived assets to be held-and-used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows over the remaining useful life of a long-lived asset is less than its carrying amount, the asset is considered to be impaired. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. When fair values are not available, we estimate fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

As a non-asset based carrier we do not own transportation assets. We generate the major portion of our air and ocean freight revenues by purchasing transportation services from direct (asset-based) carriers and reselling those services to our customers. Based upon the terms in the contract of carriage, revenues related to shipments where we issue a House Airway Bill or a House Ocean Bill of Lading are recognized at the time the freight is tendered to the direct carrier at origin. Costs related to the shipments are also recognized at this same time based upon anticipated margins, contractual arrangements with direct carriers, and other known factors. The estimates are routinely monitored and compared to actual invoiced costs. The estimates are adjusted as deemed necessary by us to reflect differences between the original accruals and actual costs of purchased transportation.

This method generally results in recognition of revenues and purchased transportation costs earlier than the preferred methods under GAAP which do not recognize revenue until a proof of delivery is received or which recognize revenue as progress on the transit is made. Our method of revenue and cost recognition does not result in a material difference from amounts that would be reported under such other methods.

Domestic and international transportation revenue was $211.9 million and $137.2 million, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared with $167.4 million and $143.4 million, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2013. The increase in domestic transportation revenue is due principally to incremental revenues attributed to our acquisitions of On Time and the opening of a Company-owned location in Philadelphia, and higher domestic revenues from both Company-owned and operating partner locations. The decrease in international revenue is principally due to incremental decreased revenues associated with slower cross-border shipping into and out of Mexico and less project work.

Operating partner commissions increased primarily due to a change in sales mix with a higher percentage of domestic revenues, which tend to create higher commissions, compared to international revenues. Operating partner commissions as a percentage of net revenues decreased as a result of our recent acquisitions of Marvir, IFS, On Time and the opening of a Company-owned location in Philadelphia, which added Company-owned locations in Los Angeles, Portland, Phoenix, Dallas, Atlanta and Philadelphia. Company-owned locations are not paid commissions.

Personnel cost increases are primarily attributable to a full year of personnel costs related to our acquisitions of Marvir and IFS, and a partial year of personnel costs associated with our On Time acquisition, which added the personnel costs associated with new Company-owned locations in Los Angeles, Portland, Phoenix, Dallas, and Atlanta, the opening of a Company-owned location in Philadelphia, as well as a higher head-count at the corporate office and some Company-owned locations.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs increased due to our acquisition of On Time and the opening of a Company-owned location in Philadelphia, increased legal expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions and litigation, higher travel expenses associated with our regional vice presidents and other corporate travel, partially offset by savings associated with combining our two Company-owned locations in Los Angeles.

Depreciation and amortization costs increased primarily due to a full year of amortization of intangibles for Marvir and IFS, and a partial year of amortization for current year acquisitions On Time and PCA, partially offset by scheduled changes in the amortization costs associated with the Adcom, ISLA and ALBS acquisition.

Transition and lease termination costs for the year ended June 30, 2013 represent non-recurring operating costs incurred in connection with the relocation of the former DBA facility in Los Angeles to a new location, certain personnel costs that were eliminated in connection with the combination of the historical DBA and Marvir locations, and a loss on disposal of furniture and equipment. There were no such costs for the year ended June 30, 2014.

Change in contingent consideration represents the change in the fair value of contingent consideration due to former shareholders of acquired operations. The change in both years was primarily attributable to ISLA and ALBS not achieving their specified operating objectives.

The increase in income from operations is attributable to several factors, favorable and unfavorable to the Company. Net revenues increased $10.8 million primarily due to the incremental revenues attributed to our acquisition of On Time and the opening of a Company-owned location in Philadelphia, offset by decreased revenues associated with slower cross-border shipping into and out of Mexico and less project work. Operating partner commission expense increased $1.2 primarily due to a change in sales mix with a higher percentage of domestic revenues, which tend to create higher commissions, compared to international revenues. Personnel costs increased $4.4 million primarily due to increased personnel costs associated with recently acquired Company-owned locations as well as increased head-count at the corporate office. SG&A expenses increased $2.3 million primarily due to our acquisition of On Time and the opening of a Company-owned location in Philadelphia, increased legal expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions and litigation, higher travel expenses associated with our regional vice presidents and other corporate travel, partially offset by savings associated with combining our two Company-owned locations in Los Angeles. Depreciation and amortization increased $0.6 million due to a full year of amortization of intangibles for Marvir and IFS, and a partial year of amortization for current year acquisitions On Time and PCA, partially offset by scheduled changes in the amortization costs associated with the Adcom, ISLA and ALBS acquisitions. Transition and lease termination costs decreased $1.5 million over the prior year due to the relocation of the former DBA Los Angeles facility into the Marvir Los Angeles facility. Change in contingent consideration decreased $0.8 million due to changes in the projected future operating results of acquired businesses relative to the specified operating objectives and financial targets associated with earn-outs in their respective agreements.

Other expense increased due to the write-off of the debt discount in the current year and the gain on litigation settlement in the prior period.

Our increase in net income was driven principally by the increased efficiency of leveraging our scalable back-office infrastructure, favorable write-down of contingent consideration, offset by higher depreciation and amortization costs as well as a lack of lease termination costs in the current year.

Our future net income may be impacted by increased amortization of intangibles resulting from acquisitions as well as changes in contingent consideration may result in gains or losses and are difficult to predict.

Supplemental Pro forma Information

Basis of Presentation

The results of operations discussion that appears below has been presented utilizing a combination of historical and, where relevant, pro forma unaudited information to include the effects on our consolidated financial statements of our acquisitions of Marvir, IFS and On Time. The pro forma results are developed to reflect a consolidation of the historical results of operations of the Company and adjusted to include the historical results of Marvir, IFS and On Time, as if we had acquired all of them as of July 1, 2012. The pro forma results are also adjusted to reflect a consolidation of the historical results of operations of Marvir, IFS and On Time, and the Company as adjusted to reflect the amortization of acquired intangibles.

The pro forma financial data is not necessarily indicative of results of operations that would have occurred had these acquisitions been consummated at the beginning of the periods presented or which might be attained in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared to $2.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. The change was principally driven by an increase in our net income adjusted for amortization, contingent consideration, loss on the write-off of debt discount, lease termination costs, and changes in operating assets and liabilities, primarily the changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable.

30


 

Net cash used for investing activities was $9.0 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared to $2.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. Use of cash in 2014 consisted of $8.8 million related to acquisitions and the purchase of $0.2 million of technology related equipment. Use of cash in 2013 consisted of $0.7 million related to the acquisitions of Marvir and IFS, the purchase of $0.3 million of fixed assets, and $0.4 million paid in earn-outs to the former shareholders of acquired operations, and the $1.1 million integration payment to the former shareholders of DBA.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared to $0.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. The cash provided by financing activities in 2014 consisted of repayments to our credit facility of $1.6 million, repayments of senior subordinated promissory notes of $10.0 million, repayments of notes payable to former shareholders of $2.8 million, payment of employee tax withholdings related to net share settlements of stock option exercises of $0.9 million, payment of contingent consideration payments made to former shareholders of acquired operations of $0.3 million, preferred dividend payments of $0.7 million, and $0.1 million in non-controlling interest distributions, offset by proceeds from the preferred stock offering of $19.3 million and a tax benefit from the exercise of stock options of $1.0 million. Cash from financing activities in 2013 consisted of proceeds from our credit facility of $1.4 million, repayments of notes payable to former shareholders of $0.8 million, $0.1 million in non-controlling interest distributions, and proceeds of $0.1 million related to the exercise of stock options.

Acquisitions

Below are descriptions of recent material acquisitions in the last three fiscal years including a breakdown of consideration paid at closing and future potential earn-out payments. We define “material acquisitions” as those with aggregate potential consideration of $5.0 million or more.

On December 1, 2011, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Laredo, Texas based ISLA International, Ltd. (“ISLA”), a privately-held company founded in 1996. At the time of the acquisition, ISLA provided bilingual expertise in both north and south bound cross-border transportation and logistics services to a diversified account base including manufacturers in the automotive, appliance, electronics and consumer packaged goods industries from its strategically-aligned location in Laredo, Texas and will serve as our gateway to the Mexico markets. The transaction was structured as an asset purchase and valued at up to approximately $15.0 million, consisting of: (i) cash of $7.657 million paid at closing; (ii) $1.325 million paid through the issuance of 552,333 shares of our restricted stock on the three-month anniversary of the closing (valued based upon a 30-day volume weighted average price calculated preceding the delivery of the shares); (iii) up to $3.975 million in aggregate “Tier-1 Earn-Out Payments” covering the four-year earn-out period immediately following closing, based upon the acquired ISLA business unit generating a “Modified Gross Profit Contribution” (as defined within the Asset Purchase Agreement) of $6.928 million for each twelve month earn-out period following closing; and (iv) a “Tier-2 Earn-Out Payment” after the fourth anniversary of the closing, equal to 20% of the amount by which the aggregate “Modified Gross Profit Contribution” of the acquired ISLA business unit during the four-year earn-out period exceeds $27.711 million, with such payment not to exceed $2.0 million. The various Tier-1 Earn-Out Payments and the Tier-2 Earn-Out Payment shall be made in a combination of cash and our common stock, as we may, at our sole discretion, elect to satisfy up to 25% of each of the earn-out payments through the issuance of our common stock valued based upon a 30-day volume weighted average price to be calculated preceding the delivery of the shares.

On February 27, 2012, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, RGL, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of New York based Brunswicks Logistics, Inc. d/b/a ALBS Logistics Company (“ALBS”), a privately-held company founded in 1997. At the time of the acquisition, ALBS provided a full range of domestic and international transportation and logistics services across North America to a diversified account base including manufacturers, distributors and retailers from its strategic international gateway location at New York-JFK airport. The transaction was structured as an asset purchase and valued at up to approximately $7.275 million, consisting of: (i) cash of $2.655 million paid at closing; (ii) $295,000 paid through the issuance of 142,489 shares of our restricted stock on the three-month anniversary of the closing (valued based upon a 30-day volume weighted average price calculated preceding the delivery of the shares); (iii) up to $3.325 million in aggregate “Tier-1 Earn-Out Payments” covering the four-year earn-out period immediately following closing; and (iv) a “Tier-2 Earn-Out Payment” after the fourth anniversary of the closing, with such payment not to exceed $1.0 million.

31


 

On October 1, 2013, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Radiant Transportation Services, Inc., the Company acquired the stock of On Time Express, Inc. (“On Time”), a privately-held Arizona corporation founded in 1982. On Time has an extensive, dedicated line-haul network that it leverages in delivering customized time critical domestic and international logistics solutions to an account base that includes customers in the aviation, aerospace, plastic injection molding, medical device, furniture and automotive industries. The base purchase price is valued at up to approximately $20.0 million, consisting of: $7.0 million paid in cash at closing, $0.5 million paid through the issuance of the Company’s common stock, $0.5 million payable as a working capital holdback plus a dollar-for-dollar payment of any working capital in excess of $750,000, $2.0 million in notes payable, and up to $10.0 million in aggregate Tier-1 earn-out payments following the four-year earn-out period immediately following closing. In addition, the transaction also provides for a Tier-2 earn-out payment calculated as 50% of the excess over a base target amount of $16,000,000 in cumulative earnings during the four-year Tier-1 earn-out period. The earn-out payments shall be made in a combination of cash and common stock, as the Company may elect to satisfy up to 25% of each Tier-1 earn-out payments and 50% of the Tier-2 earn-out payment through the issuance of its common stock valued based upon a 25-day volume weighted average price to be calculated preceding the delivery of the shares.

Credit Facility

We have a $30.0 million credit facility that includes a $2.0 million sublimit to support letters of credit and matures on August 1, 2018. The credit facility is collateralized by accounts receivable and other assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. Advances under the Facility are available to fund future acquisitions, capital expenditures, repurchase of Company stock or for other corporate purposes. Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest, at our option, at the bank’s base prime rate minus 0.50% or LIBOR plus 2.25%. The rates can be subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio at the Lender’s base rate plus 0.0% to 0.50% or LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.25%. The credit facility provides for advances of up to 85% of eligible domestic accounts receivable and, subject to certain sub-limits, 75% of eligible accrued but unbilled receivables and eligible foreign accounts receivable.

Under the terms of the credit facility, we are required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.1 to 1.0 in the event that availability is less than $5.0 million or an Event of Default was to occur.

The co-borrowers of the credit facility include Radiant Logistics, Inc., RGL (f/k/a Airgroup Corporation), Radiant Transportation Services (“RTS”, f/k/a Radiant Logistics Global Services, Inc.), Adcom Express, Inc. (d/b/a Adcom Worldwide), Radiant Customs Services, Inc., DBA (d/b/a Distribution by Air), International Freight Systems (of Oregon), Inc., Radiant Off-Shore Holdings LLC, Green Acquisition Company, Inc., On Time, and RLP. RLP is owned 40% by RGL and 60% by Radiant Capital Partners, LLC (“RCP”), an affiliate of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. RLP has been certified as a minority business enterprise, and focuses on corporate and government accounts with diversity initiatives. As a co-borrower under the credit facility, the accounts receivable of RLP are eligible for inclusion within the overall borrowing base of the Company and all borrowers will be responsible for repayment of the debt associated with advances under the credit facility, including those advanced to RLP.

As of August 31, 2014, we have gross availability of $30.0 million, net of advances and letter of credit reserves of approximately $4.3 million for approximately $25.7 million in remaining availability under the credit facility to support future acquisitions and our on-going working capital requirements. We expect to structure acquisitions with certain amounts paid at closing, and the balance paid over a number of years in the form of earn-out installments which are payable based upon the future earnings of the acquired businesses payable in cash, stock or some combination thereof. As we continue to execute our acquisition strategy, we will be required to make significant payments in the future if the earn-out installments under our various acquisitions become due. While we believe that a portion of any required cash payments will be generated by the acquired businesses, we may have to secure additional sources of capital to fund the remainder of any cash-based earn-out payments as they become due. This presents us with certain business risks relative to the availability of capacity under our credit facility, the availability and pricing of future fund raising, as well as the potential dilution to our stockholders to the extent the earn-outs are satisfied directly, or indirectly, from the sale of equity.

For additional information regarding the credit facility, see Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report.

Given our continued focus on the build-out of our network of operating partner locations, we believe that our current working capital and anticipated cash flow from operations are adequate to fund existing operations for the next 12 months. However, continued growth through strategic acquisitions, will require additional sources of financing as our existing working capital is not sufficient to finance our operations and an acquisition program. Thus, our ability to finance future acquisitions will be limited by the availability of additional capital. We may, however, finance acquisitions using our common stock as all or some portion of the consideration. In the event that our common stock does not attain or maintain a sufficient market value or potential acquisition candidates are otherwise unwilling to accept our securities as part of the purchase price for the sale of their businesses, we may be required to utilize more of our cash resources, if available, in order to continue our acquisition program. If we do not have sufficient cash resources through either operations or from debt facilities, our growth could be limited unless we are able to obtain such additional capital.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which had been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles used to recognize revenue for all entities. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2014, was carried out by our management under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992). Based on management’s assessment based on the criteria of the COSO, we concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting is effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures which:

(i)

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(ii)

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and

33


 

(iii)

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

Radiant Logistics, Inc.

Bellevue, Washington

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Radiant Logistics, Inc. ("the Company") as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income (operations), stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Radiant Logistics, Inc. as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company

Radiant Logistics, Inc. (the “Company”) is a non-asset based transportation and logistics services company providing domestic and international freight forwarding services and truck brokerage services through a network of Company-owned and strategic operating partner locations operating under the Radiant, Airgroup, Adcom, DBA and On Time network brands located throughout North America and an integrated service partner network serving other markets around the globe. The Company also offers an expanding array of value-added supply chain management services, including customs brokerage, order fulfillment, inventory management and warehousing.

Through the Company’s operating locations across North America, the Company offers domestic and international air, ocean and ground freight forwarding to a large and diversified account base consisting of manufacturers, distributors and retailers. The Company’s primary business operations involve arranging the shipment, on behalf of their customers, of materials, products, equipment and other goods that are generally larger than shipments handled by integrated carriers of primarily small parcels, such as FedEx, DHL and UPS. The Company provides a wide range of value-added logistics solutions to meet customers’ specific requirements for transportation and related services, including arranging and monitoring all aspects of material flow activity utilizing advanced information technology systems.

The Company’s value-added logistics solutions are provided through their multi-brand network of Company-owned and strategic operating partner locations, using a network of independent air, ground and ocean carriers and international operating partners strategically positioned around the world. The Company creates value for their customers and operating partners through, among other things, customized logistics solutions, global reach, brand awareness, purchasing power, and infrastructure benefits, such as centralized back-office operations, and advanced transportation and accounting systems.

The Company’s growth strategy will continue to focus on a combination of both organic and acquisitions initiatives. For organic growth, the Company will focus on strengthening and retaining existing, and expanding new customer and operating partner relationships. In addition to its focus on organic growth, the Company will continue to search for acquisition candidates that bring critical mass from a geographic standpoint, purchasing power and/or complementary service offerings to the current platform. As the Company continues to grow and scale the business, the Company remains focused on leveraging its back-office infrastructure to drive productivity improvement across the organization. In addition, the Company is also developing density within certain trade lanes which creates opportunities to more efficiently source and manage transportation capacity for existing freight volumes.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as well as a single variable interest entity, Radiant Logistics Partners, LLC (“RLP”), which is 40% owned by Radiant Global Logistics, Inc (“RGL”), and 60% owned by Radiant Capital Partners, LLC (“RCP”, see Note 8), an affiliate of Bohn H. Crain, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, whose accounts are included in the consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates include revenue recognition, accruals for the cost of purchased transportation, the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, changes in contingent consideration, accounting for the issuance of shares and share-based compensation, the assessment of the recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, and the establishment of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

b)

Fair Value Measurements

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for

F-8


 

similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

c)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of the Company’s receivables, accounts payable and accrued transportation costs, commissions payable, other accrued costs, and income taxes payable approximate the fair values due to the relatively short maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s credit facility and other long-term liabilities would not differ significantly from fair value (based on Level 2 inputs) the recorded amount if recalculated based on current interest rates. Contingent consideration attributable to the Company’s acquisitions are reported at fair value using Level 3 inputs.

d)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are not securing any corporate obligations. Checks issued by the Company that have not yet been presented to the bank for payment are reported as accounts payable and commissions payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Accounts payable and commissions payable includes outstanding payments which had not yet been presented to the bank for payment in the amounts of $3,837,619 and $4,775,189 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

e)

Concentrations

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed federally-insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

f)

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s receivables are recorded when billed and represent claims against third parties that will be settled in cash. The carrying value of the Company’s receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represents their estimated net realizable value. The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable on a customer-by-customer basis. The Company records a reserve for bad debts against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to an amount the Company believes will be reasonably collected. The reserve is a discretionary amount determined from the analysis of the aging of the accounts receivables, historical experience and knowledge of specific customers.

The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenue through independently-owned operating partner locations operating under the various Company brands. Each individual operating partner is responsible for some or all of the bad debt expense related to the underlying customers being serviced by the office. To facilitate this arrangement, each operating partner is required to maintain a security deposit with the Company that is recognized as a liability in the Company’s financial statements. The Company charges each individual operating partner’s bad debt reserve account for any accounts receivable aged beyond 90 days. The bad debt reserve account is continually replenished with a portion (typically 5% – 10%) of the operating partner’s weekly commission check being directed to fund this account. However, the bad debt reserve account may carry a deficit balance when amounts charged to this reserve exceed amounts otherwise available in the bad debt reserve account. In these circumstances, deficit bad debt reserve accounts are recognized as a receivable in the Company’s financial statements. Further, the operating agreements provide that the Company may withhold all or a portion of future commission checks payable to the individual operating partner in satisfaction of any deficit balance. Currently, a number of the Company’s operating partners have a deficit balance in their bad debt reserve account. The Company expects to replenish these funds through the future business operations of these operating partners. However, to the extent any of these operating partners were to cease operations or otherwise be unable to replenish these deficit accounts, the Company would be at risk of loss for any such amount.

g)

Furniture and Equipment

Technology (computer software, hardware, and communications), furniture, and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Depreciation is computed using five to seven year lives for vehicles, communication, office, furniture, and computer equipment using the straight line method of depreciation. Computer software is depreciated over a three year life using the straight line method of depreciation. For leasehold improvements, the cost is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or useful life on a straight line basis. Upon retirement or other disposition of these assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is reflected in other income or expense. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and renewals of minor items are charged to expense as incurred. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized.

F-9


 

h)

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of a business acquired. The Company typically performs its annual goodwill impairment test effective as of April 1 of each year, unless events or circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred before that time. The Company assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. After assessing qualitative factors, the Company determined that no further testing was necessary. If further testing was necessary, the Company would have performed a two-step impairment test for goodwill. The first step requires the Company to determine the fair value of each reporting unit, and compare the fair value to the reporting unit’s carrying amount. The Company has only one reporting unit. To the extent a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired and the Company must perform a second more detailed impairment assessment. The second impairment assessment involves allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to all of its recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the assessment date. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is then compared to the carrying amount of goodwill to quantify an impairment charge as of the assessment date. As of June 30, 2014, management believes there are no indications of impairment.

The table below reflects changes in goodwill for the years ending June 30:

i)

Long-Lived Assets

Acquired intangibles consist of customer related intangibles and non-compete agreements arising from the Company’s acquisitions. Customer related intangibles are amortized using accelerated methods over approximately five years and non-compete agreements are amortized using the straight line method over the term of the underlying agreements.

The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held-and-used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows over the remaining useful life of a long-lived asset is less than its carrying amount, the asset is considered to be impaired. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Management has performed a review of all long-lived assets and has determined no impairment of the respective carrying value has occurred as of June 30, 2014.

j)

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations using the purchase method of accounting and allocates the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, the estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of income.

The fair values of intangible assets acquired are estimated using a discounted cash flow approach with Level 3 inputs. Under this method, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows (excess earnings) attributable solely to the intangible asset over its remaining useful life. To calculate fair value, the Company uses risk-adjusted cash flows discounted at rates considered appropriate given the inherent risks associated with each type of asset. The Company believes the level and timing of cash flows appropriately reflects market participant assumptions.

F-10


 

The Company determines the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration payable based on the likelihood of paying the contingent consideration as part of the consideration transferred. The fair value is estimated using projected future operating results and the corresponding future earn-out payments that can be earned upon the achievement of specified operating objectives and financial results by our acquired companies using Level 3 inputs and the amounts are then discounted to present value. These liabilities are measured quarterly at fair value, and any change in the contingent liability is included in the consolidated statements of income.

k)

Commitments

The Company has operating lease commitments for equipment rentals, office space, and warehouse space under non-cancelable operating leases expiring at various dates through May 2021. Rent expense is recognized straight line over the term of the lease. Minimum future lease payments (excluding the lease payments included in the lease termination liability) under these non-cancelable operating leases for the next five fiscal years ending June 30 and thereafter are as follows:

Rent expense amounted to $1,868,797 and $1,895,590 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

l)

Lease Termination Costs

Lease termination costs consist of expenses related to future rent payments for which we no longer intend to receive any economic benefit. A liability is recorded when we cease to use leased space. Lease termination costs are calculated as the present value of lease payments, net of expected sublease income, and the loss on disposition of assets. During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a lease termination liability of $1,334,490 related to the lease termination. During the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company paid $292,521 and $674,349 of the liability, respectively.

m)

401(k) Savings Plan

The Company has an employee savings plan under which the Company provides safe harbor matching contributions. During the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company’s contributions under the plans were $343,209 and $266,788, respectively.

n)

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are reported using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The Company reports a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense or other expense, respectively.

o)

Revenue Recognition and Purchased Transportation Costs

The Company is the primary obligor responsible for providing the service desired by the customer and is responsible for fulfillment, including the acceptability of the service(s) ordered or purchased by the customer. At the Company’s sole discretion, it sets the prices charged to its customers, and is not required to obtain approval or consent from any other party in establishing its prices. The Company has multiple suppliers for the services it sells to its customers, and has the absolute and complete discretion and right to select the supplier that will provide the product(s) or service(s) ordered by a customer, including changing the supplier on a shipment-

F-11


 

by-shipment basis. In most cases, the Company determines the nature, type, characteristics, and specifications of the service(s) ordered by the customer. The Company also assumes credit risk for the amount billed to the customer.

As a non-asset based carrier, the Company does not own transportation assets. The Company generates the major portion of its freight forwarding revenues by purchasing transportation services from direct (asset-based) carriers and reselling those services to its customers. Based upon the terms in the contract of carriage, revenues related to shipments where the Company issues a House Airway Bill or a House Ocean Bill of Lading are recognized at the time the freight is tendered to the direct carrier at origin net of duties and taxes. Costs related to the shipments are also recognized at this same time based upon anticipated margins, contractual arrangements with direct carriers, and other known factors. The estimates are routinely monitored and compared to actual invoiced costs. The estimates are adjusted as deemed necessary by the Company to reflect differences between the original accruals and actual costs of purchased transportation.

This method generally results in recognition of revenues and purchased transportation costs earlier than the preferred methods under GAAP which does not recognize revenue until a proof of delivery is received or which recognizes revenue as progress on the transit is made. The Company’s method of revenue and cost recognition does not result in a material difference from amounts that would be reported under such other methods.

All other revenue, including revenue from other value-added services including brokerage services, warehousing and fulfillment services, is recognized upon completion of the service.

p)

Share-Based Compensation

The Company has issued restricted stock awards and stock options to certain directors, officers and employees. The Company accounts for share-based compensation under the fair value recognition provisions such that compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is expensed ratably over the vesting period. Determining the fair value of share-based awards at the grant date requires judgment, including estimating the percentage of awards that will be forfeited, stock volatility, the expected life of the award, and other inputs. If actual forfeitures differ significantly from the estimates, share-based compensation expense and the Company’s results of operations could be materially impacted. The Company issues new shares of common stock to satisfy exercises and vesting of awards granted under our stock plan.

The Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $666,098 and $369,351 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

q)

Basic and Diluted Income Per Share

Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares, such as stock awards and stock options, had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

For the year ended June 30, 2014, the weighted average outstanding number of potentially dilutive common shares totaled 35,458,401 shares of common stock, including unvested restricted stock awards and options to purchase 5,125,044 shares of common stock as of June 30, 2014, of which 1,465,317 were excluded as their effect would have been antidilutive. For the year ended year ended June 30, 2013, the weighted average outstanding number of potentially dilutive common shares totaled 34,910,911 shares of common stock, including unvested restricted stock awards and options to purchase 5,255,781 shares of common stock as of June 30, 2013, of which 1,437,027 were excluded as their effect would have been antidilutive.

The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted per share computations for earnings per share as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles used to recognize revenue for all entities. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

NOTE 3 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Fiscal Year 2013 Acquisitions

During fiscal year 2013, the Company made two business acquisitions. Effective November 1, 2012, we acquired the assets and operations of our Los Angeles, California operating partner Marvir Logistics, Inc. (“Marvir”). Effective December 31, 2012, we acquired the stock of our Portland, Oregon operating partner International Freight Systems of Oregon, Inc. (“IFS”). The results of operations for the businesses acquired are included in our financial statements as of the date of purchase. The contingent consideration arrangements may require the Company to pay a total of an additional $1,500,000 in cash if each of the fiscal year 2013 acquisitions meets the specified operating objectives and financial results in their respective purchase agreements. In December 2012, the Company combined our two Company-owned locations in Los Angeles. The Company recorded non-recurring transition and lease termination costs of $1,544,454 for the year ended June 30, 2013. The costs consist of future rent expenses emanating from the relocation of the former DBA facility in Los Angeles to a new location of $1,334,490, certain personnel costs that are being eliminated in connection with the combination of the historical DBA and Marvir locations in Los Angeles of $105,436, and a loss on disposal of furniture and equipment of $104,528. The lease termination costs and the related liabilities are recorded separately in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Acquisition of On Time Express, Inc.

On October 1, 2013, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Radiant Transportation Services, Inc., the Company acquired the stock of On Time Express, Inc. (“On Time”), a privately-held Arizona corporation founded in 1982. On Time has an extensive, dedicated line-haul network that it leverages in delivering customized time critical domestic and international logistics solutions to an account base that includes customers in the aviation, aerospace, plastic injection molding, medical device, furniture and automotive industries. The base purchase price is valued at up to approximately $20.0 million, consisting of: $7.0 million paid in cash at closing, $0.5 million paid through the issuance of the Company’s common stock, $0.5 million payable as a working capital holdback plus a dollar-for-dollar payment of any working capital in excess of $750,000, $2.0 million in notes payable, and up to $10.0 million in aggregate Tier-1 earn-out payments following the four-year earn-out period immediately following closing. In addition, the transaction also provides for a Tier-2 earn-out payment calculated as 50% of the excess over a base target amount of $16,000,000 in cumulative earnings during the four-year Tier-1 earn-out period. The earn-out payments shall be made in a combination of cash and common stock, as the Company may elect to satisfy up to 25% of each Tier-1 earn-out payments and 50% of the Tier-2 earn-out payment through the issuance of its common stock valued based upon a 25-day volume weighted average price to be calculated preceding the delivery of the shares.

The transaction was financed with proceeds from the senior credit facility. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following:

The fair value of the financial assets acquired included receivables with a fair value of $3,084,077, all of which is expected to be collectible. The fair values of the intangible assets were estimated using a discounted cash flow approach with Level 3 inputs. Under this method, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows (excess earnings) attributable solely to the intangible asset over its remaining useful life. To calculate fair value, the Company used risk-adjusted cash flows discounted at rates considered appropriate given the inherent risks associated with each type of asset. The Company believes the level and timing of cash flows appropriately reflect market participant assumptions.

The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using future projected gross margins of On Time and the corresponding future earn-out payments. To calculate fair value, the future earn-out payments were then discounted using Level 3 inputs. The Company believes the discount rate used to discount the earn-out payments reflect market participant assumptions.

The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to its dedicated line-haul network and is not deductible for tax purposes.

Since acquisition, On Time produced revenue of approximately $20.8 million and income from operations of approximately $0.5 million, including amortization of intangibles resulting from the acquisition of approximately $1.5 million.

If the acquisition had taken place effective July 1, 2012, the result would have produced combined revenue of $355.9 million and $337.4 million and combined net income of $4.2 million and $3.9 million for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The unaudited pro forma financial information presented is for informational purposes only and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisitions and any borrowings undertaken to finance the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of fiscal 2013.

Acquisition of Phoenix Cartage and Air Freight, LLC

On March 1, 2014, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, the Company acquired select customer relationships of Phoenix Cartage and Air Freight, LLC (“PCA”), a privately-held company based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The transaction was financed with proceeds from the senior credit facility. The transaction was structured as an asset purchase using cash, stock, and earn-out payments. The goodwill recorded is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes over a period of 15 years. The consideration paid, purchase price, and pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of this acquisition was not material to the consolidated financial statements.

The results of operations for the businesses acquired are included in our financial statements as of the date of purchase.

Bank of America Credit Facility

The Company has a $30.0 million senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Lender”). The Credit Facility includes a $2.0 million sublimit to support letters of credit and matures August 9, 2018.

Through the first anniversary of the Credit Facility, borrowings accrue interest, at the Company’s option, at the Lender’s prime rate minus 0.50% or LIBOR plus 2.25%. The rates can be subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio at the Lender’s base rate plus 0.0% to 0.50% or LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.25%. The Credit Facility is collateralized by the Company’s accounts receivable and other assets of its subsidiaries.

The available borrowing amount is limited to up to 85% of eligible domestic accounts receivable and, subject to certain sub-limits, 75% of eligible accrued but unbilled receivables and foreign accounts receivable. Borrowings are available to fund future acquisitions, capital expenditures, repurchase of Company stock or for other corporate purposes. The terms of the Credit Facility are subject to customary financial and operational covenants, including covenants that may limit or restrict the ability to, among other things, borrow under the Credit facility, incur indebtedness from other lenders, and make acquisitions. As of June 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants.

As of June 30, 2014, based on available collateral and $286,800 in outstanding letter of credit commitments, there was $22,470,000 available for borrowing under the Credit Facility based on advances outstanding.

Caltius Senior Subordinated Notes

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of ISLA, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement with Caltius Partners IV, LP and Caltius Partners Executive IV, LP (collectively, “Caltius”). Under the Investment Agreement, Caltius provided the Company with a $10.0 million aggregate principal amount evidenced by the issuance of senior subordinated notes (the “Senior Subordinated Notes”), the net proceeds of which were primarily used to finance the cash payments due at closing of the ISLA transaction. The Senior Subordinated Notes accrued interest at the rate of 13.5% per annum. The Company repaid $10.0 million of principal during the year ended June 30, 2014. The early payment resulted in a write-off of the loan fees and original issue discount of $1,238,409.

The terms of the Investment Agreement are subject to customary financial and operational covenants, including covenants that may limit or restrict the ability to, among other things, incur indebtedness from other lenders, and make acquisitions. On December 20, 2013 the Company fully repaid all amounts due under the Investment Agreement and upon such payment, was in compliance with all of its covenants thereunder. Although the Company repaid the entire outstanding balance, the Company is still subject to customary contract obligations that survive repayment of all amounts due under the Investment Agreement.

F-16


 

DBA – Notes Payable

In connection with the DBA acquisition, the Company issued notes payable in the amount of $4.8 million payable to the former shareholders of DBA. The notes accrue interest at a rate of 6.5%, and such interest is payable quarterly. The Company elected to satisfy $2.4 million of the notes through the issuance of the Company’s common stock. The principal amount of the notes has been repaid in full.

On Time Notes Payable

In connection with the On Time acquisition, the Company issued notes payable in the amount of $2.0 million payable to the former shareholders of On Time. The notes accrue interest at a rate of 6.0%, and such principal and interest is payable quarterly. The principal amount of the notes has been repaid in full.

 

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value at $.001 per share and 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 per share.

Series A Preferred Stock

On December 20, 2013, the Company closed a registered underwritten public offering of 839,200 shares of 9.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Shares”) liquidation preference $25.00 per share; including the partial exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option. Proceeds from the offering totaled $19,320,659 after deducting the underwriting discount of $1,258,800 and offering costs of $400,541. The proceeds were used to retire the Senior Subordinated Notes and reduce borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares are cumulative from the date of original issue and will be payable on January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31 commencing on April 30, 2014 when, as and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. If the Company does not pay dividends in full on any two payment dates (whether consecutive or not), the per annum dividend rate will increase an additional 2.0% per annum per $25.00 stated liquidation preference, up to a maximum of 19.0% per annum. If the Company fails to maintain the listing of the Series A Preferred Shares on the NYSE MKT or other exchange for 30 days or more, the per annum dividend rate will increase by an additional 2.0% per annum so long as the listing failure continues. The Series A Preferred Shares require the Company to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 2.0. If the Company is not in compliance with this ratio, then it cannot pay any dividend on its common stock. As of June 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with this ratio.

Commencing on December 20, 2018, the Company may redeem, at its option, the Series A Preferred Shares, in whole or in part, at a cash redemption price of $25.00 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared). Among other things, the Series A Preferred Shares have no stated maturity, are not subject to any sinking fund or other mandatory redemption, and are not convertible into or exchangeable for any of the Company’s other securities. Holders of Series A Preferred Shares generally have no voting rights, except if the Company fails to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares for six or more quarterly periods (whether consecutive or not). Under such circumstances, holders of Series A Preferred Shares will be entitled to vote to elect two additional directors to the Company’s Board of Directors, until all unpaid dividends have been paid or declared and set aside for payment. In addition, certain changes to the terms of the Series A Preferred Shares cannot be made without the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class. The Series A Preferred Shares are senior to the Company’s common stock with respect to dividends and distributions, including distributions upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The Series A Preferred Shares are listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “RLGT-PA.”

For the year ended June 30, 2014, the Company’s board of directors declared and paid a cash dividend to holders of Series A Preferred Shares in the amount of $0.887 per share, totaling $744,370.

Common Stock Repurchase Program

During 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the repurchase of a maximum of 3,000,000 shares of Company common stock through December 31, 2013 to be retired as purchased. No shares have been repurchased during the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

NOTE 8 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

RLP is owned 40% by RGL and 60% by RCP, a company for which the Chief Executive Officer of the Company is the sole member. RLP is a certified minority business enterprise that was formed for the purpose of providing the Company with a national accounts

strategy to pursue corporate and government accounts with diversity initiatives. RCP’s ownership interest entitles it to a majority of the profits and distributable cash, if any, generated by RLP. The operations of RLP are intended to provide certain benefits to the Company, including expanding the scope of services offered by the Company and participating in supplier diversity programs not otherwise available to the Company. In the course of evaluating and approving the ownership structure, operations and economics emanating from RLP, a committee consisting of the independent Board member of the Company, considered, among other factors, the significant benefits provided to the Company through association with a minority business enterprises, particularly as many of the Company’s largest current and potential customers have a need for diversity offerings. In addition, the Committee concluded that the economic relationship with RLP was on terms no less favorable to the Company than terms generally available from unaffiliated third parties.

Certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have the sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties are considered “variable interest entities”. RLP qualifies as a variable interest entity and is included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

For the year ended June 30, 2014, RLP recorded $106,070 in profits, of which RCP’s distributable share was $63,642. For the year ended June 30, 2013, RLP recorded $179,954 in profits, of which Mr. Crain’s distributable share was $107,972. The non-controlling interest recorded as a reduction of income on the consolidated statements of income represents RCP’s distributive share.

The Company has contingent obligations to transfer cash payments and equity shares to former shareholders of acquired operations in conjunction with certain acquisitions if specified operating results and financial objectives are met over the next four fiscal years. Contingent consideration is measured quarterly at fair value, and any change in the contingent liability is included in the consolidated statements of income. The Company recorded a decrease to contingent consideration of $2,040,567 and $2,825,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, primarily for the ISLA and ALBS acquisitions. The reductions in contingent consideration were a result of the acquisitions not meeting their anticipated financial targets and additionally management’s judgment surrounding the projected future operating results of the acquired businesses relative to the specified operating objectives and financial targets associated with earn-outs in their respective agreements.

F-18


 

The Company uses projected future financial results based on recent and historical data to value the anticipated future earn-out payments. To calculate fair value, the future earn-out payments were then discounted using Level 3 inputs. The Company has classified the contingent consideration as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs. The Company believes the discount rate used to discount the earn-out payments reflects market participant assumptions. Changes in assumptions and operating results could have a significant impact on the earn-out amount, up to a maximum of $21,483,000 through earn-out periods measured through September 2017, although there are no maximums on certain earn-out payments. Contingent consideration is net of advances on earn-out payments of $550,000.

NOTE 11 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has two stock-based plans: the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2012 Stock Option and Performance Award Plan. Each plan authorizes the granting of up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The plans provide for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, RSUs, performance shares and performance units. Options are granted at exercise prices equal to the fair value of the common stock at the date of the grant and have a term of 10 years. Generally, grants under each plan vest 20% annually over a five year period from the date of grant.

Stock Awards

The Company granted restricted stock awards to certain employees in August 2012. The shares are restricted in transferability for a term of up to five years and are forfeited in the event the employee terminates employment prior to the lapse of the restriction. The awards generally vest ratably over a five year period. During the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $5,043 and $10,963, respectively, related to stock awards.

NOTE 12 – CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

DBA Distribution Services, Inc.

In December 2012, an arbitrator awarded the Company net damages of $698,623 from the former shareholders of DBA, finding that the former shareholders breached certain representations and warranties contained in the DBA Agreement. In addition, the arbitrator found that Paul Pollara breached his noncompetition obligation to the Company and enjoined Mr. Pollara from engaging in any activity in contravention of his obligations of noncompetition and non-solicitation, including activities that relate to Santini Productions and his spouse, Bretta Santini Pollara until March 2016. The award also provided that the former DBA Shareholders and Mr. Pollara must pay to the Company the administrative fees, compensation and expenses of the arbitrator associated with the arbitration. The award has been off-set against amounts due to former shareholders of acquired operations. The gain on litigation settlement was recorded net of judgment interest and associated legal costs.

In a related matter, in December 2011, Ms. Pollara filed a claim for declaratory relief against the Company seeking an order stipulating that she is not bound by the non-compete covenant contained within the DBA Agreement signed by her husband, Mr. Pollara. On January 23, 2012, the Company filed a counterclaim against Ms. Pollara, her company Santini Productions, Daniel Reffner (a former employee of the Company now working for Ms. Pollara), and Oceanair, Inc. (“Oceanair”, a company doing business with Santini Productions). The Company’s counterclaim alleges claims for statutory and common law misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of duty of loyalty, and unfair competition, and sought damages in excess of $1,000,000.

On April 25, 2014, a jury returned a verdict in the Company’s favor in the amount of $1,500,000, but the judge entered a judgment notwithstanding the verdict and dismissed the case. The Company has filed an appeal of the judge’s ruling and expect the appeal to be heard by the summer of 2015.

Radiant Global Logistics, Inc. and DBA Distribution Services, Inc. (Ingrid Barahona California Class Action)

On October 25, 2013, plaintiff Ingrid Barahona filed a purported class action lawsuit against RGL, DBA Distribution Services, Inc. (“DBA”), and two third-party staffing companies (collectively, the “Staffing Defendants”) with whom Radiant and DBA contracted for temporary employees. In the lawsuit, Ms. Barahona seeks damages and penalties under California law alleging that she and the putative class were the subject of unfair and unlawful business practices, including certain wage and hour violations relating to, among others, failure to provide certain rest and meal periods, as well as failure to pay minimum wages and overtime. Ms. Barahona alleges that she was jointly employed by the staffing companies and Radiant and DBA. Radiant and DBA deny Ms. Barahona’s allegations in their entirety, deny that they are liable to Ms. Barahona or the putative class members in any way, and are vigorously defending against these allegations based upon a preliminary evaluation of applicable records and legal standards. In addition, the Company believes that the plaintiff’s class definition is overly broad and cannot meet California’s class action certification requirements. On August 28, 2014, the Company filed an Answer to Ms. Barahona’s First Amended Complaint, and the case remains in the early stages of litigation. The Company is unable to express an opinion as to the final outcome of the matter.

Service By Air, Inc. v. Radiant Global Logistics, Inc.

On March 11, 2014 a lawsuit was filed by Service By Air, Inc. ("SBA"), which is a competitor to Radiant, against Radiant, PCA, and Philippe Gabay ("Gabay"). The case is currently pending. The Company entered into various agreements with PCA and Gabay on March 1, 2014 in connection with the purchase of certain assets regarding expansion of our operations in the Mid-Atlantic Region of the United States. SBA is claiming unspecified damages against all of the defendants on the grounds that the execution of those agreements, and certain actions after that date violated an agreement to which SBA was a party to with PCA and Gabay that otherwise expired on February 28, 2014. SBA is also claiming that the Company tortiously interfered with SBA's rights in connection with the expired agreement. The Company believes that the case is without merit and have filed a motion to dismiss the complaint, which is pending before the court.

The Company is involved in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are in the very early stages of litigation and therefore difficult to judge their potential materiality. For those claims for which we can judge the materiality, in the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Legal expenses are expensed as incurred.

Contingent Consideration and Earn-out Payments

The Company’s agreements with respect to the acquisitions, including On Time and PCA (see Note 3) contain future consideration provisions which provide for the selling shareholder(s) to receive additional consideration if specified operating objectives and financial results are achieved in future periods, as defined in their respective agreements. Any changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recorded in the consolidated statements of income. Earn-out payments are generally due annually on November 1, and 90 days following the quarter of the final earn-out period for each respective acquisition.

NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 17, 2014, the Company’s board of directors declared a cash dividend to holders of the Series A Preferred Shares in the amount of $0.609375 per share. The total declared dividend totaled $511,408 and was paid on July 31, 2014.

On September 1, 2014, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, RGL, the Company acquired the operations and assets of Trans-NET, Inc., an Issaquah, Washington based company with extensive experience providing integrated project logistics solutions in key Russian oil, gas, mining and infrastructure development markets. The Company has structured the transaction similar to previous acquisitions, with a portion of the expected purchase price payable in subsequent periods based on future performance of the acquired operation. The consideration paid, purchase price, and pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of this acquisition was not material to the consolidated financial statements.
