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

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

Overview

Radiant Logistics, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company,” “we” or “us”), operates as a third-party logistics company, providing technology-enabled global transportation and value-added logistics solutions primarily in the United States and Canada. We service a large and diversified account base across a range of industries and geographies, which is supported from an extensive network of operating locations across North America as well as an integrated international service partner network located in other key markets around the globe. The Company provides these services through a multi-brand network, which includes over 100 operating locations. Included in these operating locations are a number of independent agents, who are also referred to as “strategic operating partners,” that operate exclusively on the Company's behalf, and approximately 25 Company-owned offices. As a third-party logistics company, the Company has a vast carrier network of asset-based transportation companies, including motor carriers, railroads, airlines and ocean lines in its carrier network. We believe shippers value our services because we are able to objectively arrange the most efficient and cost-effective means, type and provider of transportation service without undue influence caused by the ownership of transportation assets. In addition, our minimal investment in physical assets affords us the opportunity for a higher return on invested capital and net cash flows than our asset-based competitors.

Through our operating locations across North America, we offer domestic, international air and ocean freight forwarding services and freight brokerage services, including truckload services, less than truckload (“LTL”) services, and intermodal services, which is the movement of freight in trailers or containers by combination of truck and rail. 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, including arranging and monitoring all aspects of material flow activity utilizing advanced information technology systems. We also provide other value-added logistics services including materials management and distribution services (collectively, “materials management and distribution” or “MM&D” services), customs house brokerage (“CHB”) services and global trade management (“GTM”) services to complement our core transportation service offering.

The Company expects to grow its business organically and by completing acquisitions of other companies with complementary geographical and logistics service offerings. The Company’s organic growth strategy will continue to focus on strengthening existing and expanding new customer relationships leveraging the benefit of the Company’s technology platform, while continuing its efforts on the organic build-out of the Company’s network of strategic operating partner locations. In addition, as the Company continues to grow and scale its business, the Company believes that it is creating density in its trade lanes, which creates opportunities for the Company to more efficiently source and manage its transportation capacity.

In addition to its focus on organic growth, the Company will continue to search for acquisition candidates that bring critical mass from a geographic and purchasing power standpoint, along with providing complementary service offerings to the current platform. As the Company continues to grow and scale its business, it also remains focused on leveraging its back-office infrastructure and technology systems to drive productivity improvement across the organization.

Impact of Notable External Conditions

The global economic and trade environments remain uncertain, including continued inflation, geopolitical tensions and changes in consumer behavior could have a negative impact on our business and financial results.

Performance Metrics

Our principal source of income is derived from freight forwarding and freight brokerage services we provide to our customers. As a third-party logistics provider, 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. Our adjusted transportation gross profit (gross transportation revenue less the direct cost of transportation), a non-GAAP financial measure, 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 adjusted transportation gross profit provides a useful metric, as our ability to control costs as a function of adjusted transportation gross profit directly impacts operating results.

Our operating results will be affected as acquisitions occur. Since acquisitions are recorded using the acquisition 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.

Adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP financial measure, is our revenue minus our cost of transportation and other services (excluding depreciation and amortization, which are reported separately), and adjusted gross profit percentage is adjusted gross profit as a percentage of our total revenue. We believe that these provide investors with meaningful information to understand our results of operations and the ability to analyze financial and business trends on a period-to-period basis.

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 interest, taxes, and 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 property, technology, and equipment and all amortization charges (including amortization of leasehold improvements). We then further adjust EBITDA to exclude share-based compensation expense, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, expenses specifically attributable to acquisitions, ransomware incident related costs, changes in fair value of interest rate swap contracts, restatement costs, transition and lease termination costs, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, extraordinary items, litigation expenses unrelated to our core operations, 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 condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s financial covenants with its lenders define an adjusted EBITDA as a key component of its covenant calculations. The Company’s ability to grow adjusted EBITDA is closely monitored by management as it’s directly tied to financial borrowing capacity and also is a frequent point of discussion with its investors as well as the Company’s earnings calls.

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.

Results of Operations

Three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (unaudited)

The following table summarizes revenues, cost of transportation and other services, and adjusted gross profit by reportable operating segments for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:

(In thousands)

(1) Adjusted gross profit is revenues net of cost of transportation and other services.

Transportation revenue was $187.8 million and $265.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease of $77.2 million, or 29.1% is primarily due to significant decreases in international and ocean rates, compounded by lower ocean volumes, and an overall decrease in charter business compared to the prior year period. Adjusted transportation gross profit was $54.6 million and $66.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Net transportation margins increased from 25.1% to 29.1%, primarily due to a higher mix of domestic shipments, which have higher gross profit margin characteristics than ocean and charter shipments.

Value-added services revenue was $13.3 million and $13.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Adjusted value-added services gross profit was $7.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $7.5 million for the comparable prior year period. Adjusted value-added services gross profit percentage decreased from 56.9% to 55.7%.

(1) Adjusted gross profit is revenues net of cost of transportation and other services.

(2) Certain amounts in the corporate/eliminations segment have been reclassified from the United States column to conform to the current year presentation.

Operating partner commissions decreased $4.7 million, or 15.4%, to $25.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in commissions is primarily due to a reduction of adjusted gross profit generated from our strategic operating partners and the conversion of a strategic operating partner to a company-owned location, who earned commissions in the prior year period. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, operating partner commissions increased 43 basis points to 41.6% from 41.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, as a result of a higher percentage of gross margin generated from strategic operating partners.

Personnel costs decreased $0.8 million, or 4.3%, to $19.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, personnel costs increased 399 basis points to 31.9% from 27.9% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $1.9 million, or 22.2%, to $10.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The increase is primarily due to increased software costs, facilities costs, and allowance for credit losses. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, SG&A increased 538 basis points to 17.1% from 11.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization costs decreased $2.5 million, or 36.9%, to $4.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease is attributable to the accelerated amortization of intangible assets in the prior year resulting from the rebranding of certain trade names. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, depreciation and amortization costs decreased 230 basis points to 7.0% from 9.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Our decrease in net income is driven principally by decreased adjusted gross profit, partially offset by decreased operating partner commissions, decreased amortization of intangible assets and income tax expense compared to the comparable prior year period.

Our future financial results may be impacted by amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions, gains or losses from changes in fair value of contingent consideration, and changes in fair value of interest rate swap contracts, which are difficult to predict.

Transportation revenue was $385.8 million and $583.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease of $197.3 million, or 33.8% is primarily due to significant decreases in international and ocean rates, compounded by lower ocean volumes, and an overall decrease in charter business compared to the prior year period. Adjusted transportation gross profit was $108.4 million and $135.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Net transportation margins increased from 23.3% to 28.1%, primarily due to a higher mix of domestic shipments, which have higher gross profit margin characteristics than ocean and charter shipments.

Value-added services revenue was $26.1 million and $26.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Adjusted value-added services gross profit was $14.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $14.9 million for the comparable prior year period. Adjusted value-added services gross profit percentage decreased from 57.2% to 55.2%.

Operating partner commissions decreased $11.0 million, or 18.2%, to $49.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in commissions is primarily due to a reduction of adjusted gross profit generated from our strategic operating partners. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, operating partner commissions increased 11 basis points to 40.4% from 40.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, as a result of a higher percentage of gross margin generated from strategic operating partners.

Personnel costs decreased $1.0 million, or 2.5%, to $39.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, personnel costs increased 522 basis points to 32.1% from 26.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

SG&A expenses increased $2.7 million, or 15.1%, to $20.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The increase is primarily due to increased software costs, facilities costs, and allowance for credit losses. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, SG&A increased 475 basis points to 16.3% from 11.6% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Generally, our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operating activities and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, as described below. These sources also fund a portion of our capital expenditures and contractual contingent consideration obligations. Our level of cash and financing capabilities along with cash flows from operations have historically been sufficient to meet our operating and capital needs. As of December 31, 2023, we have $32.9 million in unrestricted cash on hand to serve as adequate working capital.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $12.1 million and $67.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The cash provided by operating activities primarily consisted of net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization and changes in accounts receivable, contract assets, accounts payable, income taxes, and payments of contingent consideration. Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2023 decreased by $54.9 million, compared with the same period in fiscal year 2023, primarily due to decreased net income, amortization of intangible assets, and net changes in accounts receivable, contract assets, and accounts payable.

Net cash used for investing activities was $4.9 million and $6.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cash paid for acquisitions were $0.1 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cash paid for purchases of property, technology, and equipment were $5.0 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Proceeds from sale of property, technology, and equipment were $0.2 million and less than $0.1 million of the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Net cash used for financing activities was $6.8 million and $23.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. There were no repayments or borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to net repayments of the Revolving Credit Facility of $15.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022. Payments of debt issuance costs were $0.1 million and $0.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Repayments of notes payable and finance lease liabilities were $2.6 million and $2.5 million for each of the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Payments for repurchases of common stock was $3.1 million and $5.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Payments of contingent consideration was $0.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Distributions to non-controlling interest were $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Proceeds from exercise of stock options were less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Payments of employee tax withholdings related to restricted stock units and stock options were $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Company entered into a $200 million syndicated, revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) pursuant to a Credit Agreement dated as of August 5, 2022, and amended as of September 27, 2023. The Revolving Credit Facility is segregated into two tranches, a $150 million tranche that may be loaned in U.S. Dollars and a $50 million tranche that may be loaned in either U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $75 million accordion feature to support future acquisition opportunities. The Revolving Credit Facility was entered into with Bank of America, N.A. and BMO Capital Markets Corp. as joint book runners and joint lead arrangers, Bank of America, N.A. as Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, Bank of Montreal as syndication agent, KeyBank National Association and MUFG Union Bank, N.A. as co-documentation agents and Bank of America, N. A., Bank of Montreal, KeyBank National Association, MUFG Union Bank, N.A. and Washington Federal Bank, National Association as lenders (such named lenders are collectively referred to herein as “Lenders”).

The Revolving Credit Facility has a term of five years and is collateralized by a first-priority security interest in the accounts receivable and other assets of the Company and the guarantors on a parity basis with the security interest held by Fiera Private Debt Fund IV LP and Fiera Private Debt Fund V LP described below. Borrowings in U.S. Dollars accrue interest (at the Company’s option) at a) the Lenders’ base rate plus 0.50% to 1.50%; b) Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.40% to 2.40%; or c) Term SOFR Daily Floating Rate plus 1.40% to 2.40%. Borrowings in Canadian Dollars accrue interest (at the Company’s option) at a) Term Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (“CORRA”) plus 0.29547% to 0.32138% depending on the term, plus 1.40% to 2.40%; or b) Daily Simple CORRA plus 0.29547% plus 1.40% to 2.40%. Rates are adjusted based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio. The Company’s U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries are guarantors of the Revolving Credit Facility.

For borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company is subject to the maximum consolidated net leverage ratio of 3.00 and minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 3.00. Additional minimum availability requirements and financial covenants apply in the event the Company seeks to use advances under the Revolving Credit Facility to pursue acquisitions or repurchase its common stock.

As of December 31, 2023, there were no borrowings outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility.

Senior Secured Loans

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Radiant Canada, Radiant Canada obtained a CAD$29 million senior secured Canadian term loan from Fiera Private Debt Fund IV LP (“FPD IV” formerly, Integrated Private Debt Fund IV LP) pursuant to a CAD$29,000,000 Credit Facilities Loan Agreement. The Company’s U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries are guarantors of the obligations thereunder. The loan matures on April 1, 2024 and accrues interest at a rate of 6.65% per annum. The Company is required to maintain five months interest in a debt service reserve account to be controlled by FPD IV.

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Lomas, Radiant Canada obtained a CAD$10 million senior secured Canadian term loan from Fiera Private Debt Fund V LP (formerly, Integrated Private Debt Fund V LP) pursuant to a CAD$10,000,000 Credit Facilities Loan Agreement. The Company’s U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries are guarantors of the obligations thereunder. The loan matures on June 1, 2024 and accrues interest at a fixed rate of 6.65% per annum. The loan repayment consists of monthly blended principal and interest payments.

The loans may be prepaid in whole at any time providing the Company gives at least 30 days prior written notice and pays the difference between (i) the present value of the loan interest and the principal payments foregone discounted at the Government of Canada Bond Yield for the term from the date of prepayment to the maturity date, and (ii) the face value of the principal amount being prepaid.

For additional information regarding our indebtedness, see Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of business. These risks are primarily related to foreign exchange risk. We have currency exposure arising from both sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies, as well as intercompany transactions. Significant changes in exchange rates between foreign currencies in which we transact business and the U.S. dollar may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Historically, we have not entered into any hedging activities, and, to the extent that we continue not to do so in the future, we may be vulnerable to the effects of currency exchange rate fluctuations. A portion of our business is conducted in Canada. If foreign exchange rates were 1.0% higher or lower, our net income for the six months ended December 31, 2023 would have changed by approximately $0.05 million.

We are also subject to risks related to an increase in interest rates. For every $1.0 million outstanding on our Revolving Credit Facility, we will incur approximately $0.05 million of interest expense. For every 1.0% increase in interest rates, our interest expense per $1.0 million in borrowings will increase by approximately $0.01 million.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

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 December 31, 2023 was carried out by our management under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2023 due to the existence of material weaknesses described below.

Material Weakness over Recording and Processing of Revenue Transactions and Remediation Efforts

As of June 30, 2021, we concluded that a material weakness existed in our internal control over financial reporting related to the recording and processing of revenues transactions, including the timing of the Company’s estimated accrual of in-transit revenues and related costs.

In response to this material weakness, the Company has continued making progress with corrective action to address the material weakness and provide reasonable assurance that future errors in revenue transactions would be prevented and/or detected in a timely manner. The Company’s corrective actions include, but are not limited to:

a) Implementing new controls;

b) Working with strategic operating partners and Company-owned locations to understand their processes and strengthen the Company’s monitoring controls over their operations;

c) Identifying and formalizing the critical data elements in our revenue accrual process;

d) Further refining our accrual process to be more granular and operate to the desired level of precision to detect material misstatements; and

e) Performing additional review procedures and analysis including testing of unposted shipments and subsequently analyzing posted shipments in an effort to improve the overall accuracy of the revenue accrual.

As of December 31, 2023, remediation is ongoing. As such, we concluded the Company does not have effective internal controls over the recording and processing of revenues. Specifically, the controls as currently designed are not sufficient to prevent or detect a material misstatement in revenues as the design of the controls lacks the level of precision necessary to ensure the completeness and accuracy of revenues. While existing controls have been enhanced, and new controls have been implemented, there is a need for additional enhancements around the design of those controls, including, but not limited to, the formalization of the documentation retained to evidence the performance of these controls. Further testing procedures are also needed to verify their effectiveness over multiple periods of operation. As such, the Company concluded that the material weakness related to the recording and processing of revenue transactions has not been fully remediated. We anticipate fully remediating the material weakness during fiscal year 2024.

Material Weaknesses over Information Technology General Controls (“ITGCs”) and Remediation Efforts

As of June 30, 2023, we concluded that material weaknesses exist surrounding our ITGCs, specifically relating to change management and user access rights.

The material weaknesses related to the ineffective design and operation of ITGCs over the information technology (“IT”) systems supporting the Company’s Transportation Management (“TM”) systems as well as its Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system. Business process controls (automated and manual) that are dependent on effective IT systems, or that rely on data produced from systems impacted by the ineffective ITGCs, are also deemed ineffective. The Company identified material weaknesses in their internal control over financial reporting associated with (i) not designing and maintaining effective ITGCs over privileged user accounts and developers for its TM systems used to account for revenue and related cost of transportation and its ERP system used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements and (ii) not designing and maintaining effective controls to timely detect and independently review instances where individuals with access to create and implement systems changes to the TM and ERP systems.

In response to the material weaknesses, the Company removed certain elevated logical access privileges from user accounts and is actively enhancing existing controls that may include the addition of new controls to further strengthen our technology environment. For user access rights, this includes the implementation of additional software specifically designed to control access, which will be deployed before the end of the second quarter in fiscal year 2024. We expect the material weaknesses to be resolved in fiscal year 2024. The Company will need the refined and new controls to operate effectively for a specific period before concluding that the material weaknesses have been resolved.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except for the remediation activities regarding material weaknesses described above, there have not been any other 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 December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no material changes in the risk factors disclosed by us under Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
