Radiant Logistics, Inc: Form 10-Q for the period ended Sep 30, 2024

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; our ability to continue to respond to macroeconomic factors that have recently had a negative effect on worldwide freight markets; the impact of any health pandemic or environmental 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 cybersecurity incident that we reported in March 2024 or future cyber incidents and the effectiveness of the Company’s business continuity plans in response to cyber incidents; the commercial, reputational and regulatory risks to our business that may arise as a consequence of our inability to remediate during fiscal year 2024 a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting, and the further risks that may arise should we be unable to remediate that material weakness during fiscal year 2025; and such other factors that may be identified from time to time in our U.S 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 our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024. 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 leading 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, broad, and diversified account base consisting of consumer goods, food and beverage, electronics and high-tech, aviation and automotive, military and government, and manufacturing and retail customers, which is supported by 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 30 Company-owned locations. As the operator of a third-party logistics business, 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 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 gross profit, a non-GAAP financial measure, is gross revenue less the direct cost of transportation and other services (excluding depreciation and amortization, which are reported separately), and 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. Adjusted gross profit percentage is adjusted gross profit as a percent of our total revenue. In addition, management believes measuring its operating costs as a function of adjusted gross profit provides a useful metric, as our ability to control costs as a function of adjusted gross profit directly impacts operating results. 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 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.

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, cybersecurity incident related costs, changes in fair value of interest rate swap contracts, transition and lease termination costs, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, 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 September 30, 2024 and 2023 (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 September 30, 2024 and 2023:

(In thousands)

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

Transportation revenue was $191.8 million and $198.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease of $6.2 million, or 3.1% is due to the loss of a strategic operating partner offset by increases from several new acquisitions. Adjusted transportation gross profit was $50.8 million and $53.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Net transportation margins decreased from 27.2% to 26.5%, primarily due to a higher mix of ocean shipments, which have lower gross profit margin characteristics than other modes of transportation.

Value-added services revenue was $11.7 million and $12.8 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease is driven by lower volumes from certain customers compared to the prior year period. Adjusted value-added services gross profit was $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $7.0 million for the comparable prior year period. Adjusted value-added services gross profit percentage increased from 54.7% to 57.6%.

The following table provides a reconciliation for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 of adjusted gross profit to gross profit, the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

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

Operating partner commissions decreased $5.0 million, or 20.9%, to $18.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to a reduction of adjusted gross profit generated from our strategic operating partners, lower freight volumes, and the conversions of strategic operating partners to Company-owned locations who earned commissions in the comparable prior year period. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, operating partner commissions decreased 643 basis points to 32.7% from 39.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Personnel costs were flat at $19.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, personnel costs increased 183 basis points to 34.1% from 32.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $0.8 million, or 8.9%, to $10.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to increased technology spending, higher travel costs, increased credit losses, and additional facility costs due to recent acquisitions, partially offset by lower professional services fees and bank fees. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, SG&A increased 235 basis points to 17.9% from 15.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization costs increased $0.3 million, or 6.2%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is attributable to amortization of intangible assets from prior year acquisitions. As a percentage of adjusted gross profit, depreciation and amortization costs increased 91 basis points to 8.3% from 7.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Our increase in net income is driven principally by decreased operating partner commissions, partially offset by decreased adjusted gross profit 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.

(1) Depreciation and amortization for the purposes of calculating adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, includes depreciation expenses recognized on certain computer software as a service.

(2) Adjusted gross profit is revenues less the cost of transportation and other services.

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 September 30, 2024, we have $10.4 million in unrestricted cash on hand and access to a revolving credit facility to serve as adequate working capital.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $0.2 million and $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The cash provided by operating activities primarily consisted of net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization, offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash flow from operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased by $7.7 million, compared with the same period in fiscal year 2024, primarily due to net changes in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and payments of contingent consideration.

Net cash used for investing activities was $13.5 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Cash paid for acquisition was $11.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Cash paid for purchases of property, technology, and equipment were $2.1 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Net cash used for financing activities was $1.2 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Net borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were $0.2 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to no net borrowings for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Payments of debt issuance costs were $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Repayments of notes payable and finance lease liabilities were $0.2 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Payments for repurchases of common stock were $0.7 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Distribution to non-controlling interest was $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Payments of employee tax withholdings related to restricted stock units and stock options were $0.5 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, 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 matures on August 5, 2027 and is collateralized by a first-priority security interest in the accounts receivable and other assets of the Company and the guarantors. 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 September 30, 2024, borrowings outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility were $0.2 million. The Company was in compliance with its covenants.

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 three months ended September 30, 2024 would have changed by approximately $0.01 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 September 30, 2024 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 September 30, 2024 due to the existence of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below.

Management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

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”) Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013).

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 U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures, which:

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

2. 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

3. 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.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As of September 30, 2024, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the material weakness discussed below. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Material Weakness over the Recording and Processing of Revenue Transactions and Remediation Progress

As of June 30, 2023, we concluded that a material weakness existed in our internal controls over financial reporting related to the recording and processing of revenues. As of September 30, 2024, remediation was ongoing. As such, as of September 30, 2024, we concluded that a material weakness still existed in our internal controls over financial reporting related to 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 lack the level of precision necessary to ensure the completeness and accuracy of revenues.

During fiscal year 2024, management made significant progress designing and implementing a series of new, or enhanced existing controls aimed at mitigating risks associated with the accuracy, completeness, occurrence, and cut-off of reported revenue. This included a series of controls operating at various frequencies and levels of precision to detect material misstatements, including, among others:

• Individual transactions meeting certain risk criteria are tested and analyzed for accuracy by comparing historical revenue and margin data, invoices, outstanding receivables, and payments. In some cases, inquiries and confirmation may be obtained from operators at individual locations;
• Individual transactions are tested, on a sample basis, to ensure they are supported by carrier invoices, indicating legitimate shipments, and to the corresponding cash receipts;
• Regional Vice Presidents review weekly and monthly revenue variances exceeding a set threshold, using historical data and inquiring or confirming with operators at individual locations when necessary;
• Implementation of controls that verify, on a sample basis, actual departure and proof of delivery dates for selected transactions, ensuring the inputs to the revenue accrual are accurate;
• Improved procedures and controls to enhance the granularity and precision over the month-end revenue accrual process;
• Enhanced lookback procedures to test the accuracy of prior month-end revenue accruals; and
• Performed additional review and analysis of unposted shipments to improve the accuracy of the revenue accrual.

As management has evaluated, designed and implemented the processes needed to remediate its internal controls weakness, it has done so in light of, among others: (a) the need to design and implement such processes in a manner that will not disrupt, to the best extent possible, the historic commercial processes that the Company has deployed across its network of Company-owned and strategic operating partner locations since its inception, and (b) management’s firm belief that, despite the material weakness in process and controls, the Company’s ultimate billing and collection processes continue to work on a commercially sound basis and the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q continue to fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. No further errors requiring restatement have been identified.

Management believes that the suite of controls it has implemented or enhanced during fiscal year 2024 and 2025, which operate at various frequencies and levels of precision, will provide reasonable assurance that a potential material misstatement in revenue would be prevented or detected in a timely manner. That being said, while many of these new and enhanced controls had been in operation for much of fiscal year 2024; certain controls were implemented closer to year end, and the documentation supporting the performance of these controls can still be improved to demonstrate that the controls operate as they were designed for a sufficient period to conclude the controls are effective. We may also need to refine the underlying design and implementation as we continue to evaluate the manner in which they operate over a longer period before concluding that the material weakness has been resolved. Nevertheless, in recognition of the progress made during fiscal year 2024, and management’s resolve to address the remaining weakness, it is our goal to resolve the material weakness in fiscal year 2025.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except for the remediation activities of the material weakness over the recording and processing of revenue transactions 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 September 30, 2024 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, 2024.
