Supplemental
disclosure of non-cash investing and financing activities:
In
November 2008, the Company recorded $633,333 as an accrued payable and an
increase to goodwill for the final annual earnout payment due to the former
Airgroup shareholders for the Company’s acquisition of Airgroup.
In
December 2008, the Company completed its quarterly analysis of allowance for
doubtful accounts. Included in the analysis of doubtful accounts was
$205,462 relating to receivables acquired in the Adcom
transaction. Pursuant to the purchase agreement of Adcom – the
$205,462 was offset against amounts otherwise due to the former Adcom
shareholder.
In
December 2008, the Company the paid $333,277 to the former Airgroup shareholders
for the earnout payment recorded on the books for the year ending June 30,
2008. The earnout payment was recorded at June 30, 2008 in the amount
of $416,596, and payable in Company shares. The payment was
discounted by $83,319 as the former Airgroup shareholders agreed to receive cash
rather than Company shares. The effect of this
transaction was a decrease to goodwill and the amount owed to the former
Airgroup shareholders.
In
November 2008, the Company finalized its purchase price allocation resulting in
a decrease of net assets acquired by $62,694 due to unutilized transaction
costs. The effect of this transaction was a decrease to goodwill and
a decrease to accrued payables.

NOTE
1 – THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
Company
Radiant
Logistics, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Bellevue, Washington based non-asset based
logistics company providing domestic and international freight forwarding
services through a combination of company-owned stations and a network of
exclusive agent stations across North America. Operating under the Airgroup and
Adcom brands, the Company services a diversified account base including
manufacturers, distributors and retailers using a network of independent
carriers and international agents positioned strategically around the
world.
By
implementing a growth strategy, the Company intends to build a leading global
transportation and supply-chain management company offering a full range of
domestic and international freight forwarding and other value added supply chain
management services, including order fulfillment, inventory management and
warehousing.
As a
non-asset based provider of third-party logistics services, the Company seeks to
limit its investment in equipment, facilities and working capital through
contracts and preferred provider arrangements with various transportation
providers who generally provide the Company with favorable rates, minimum
service levels, capacity assurances and priority handling status. The
Company’s non-asset based approach allows it to maintain a high level of
operating flexibility and leverage a cost structure that is highly variable in
nature while the volume of flow of freight enables the Company to negotiate
attractive pricing with its transportation providers.
Interim
Disclosure
The
condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared,
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company’s
management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. The Company’s management suggests that
these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008.
The
interim period information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are,
in the opinion of the Company’s management, necessary for a fair statement of
the results of the respective interim periods. Results of operations
for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for
an entire year.
Basis
of Presentation
The
consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of Radiant
Logistics, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as well as a single
variable interest entity, Radiant Logistics Partners LLC which is 40% owned by
Airgroup, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, whose accounts are included
in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46(R) consolidation of “Variable
Interest Entities” (See Note 6). All significant inter-company 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 of America
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, accounting for
the issuance of shares and share based compensation, fair value of acquired
assets and liabilities, the assessment of the recoverability of long-lived
assets (specifically goodwill and acquired intangibles), the establishment of an
allowance for doubtful accounts and the valuation allowance for deferred tax
assets. 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) 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 which are
not securing any corporate obligations.
c) Concentration
The
Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed
federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such
accounts.
d)
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.
e)
Property &
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 and the
double declining balance method. 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.
Under the
provisions of Statement of Position 98-1, “Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use”, the Company
capitalizes costs associated with internally developed and/or purchased software
systems that have reached the application development stage and meet
recoverability tests. Capitalized costs include external direct costs of
materials and services utilized in developing or obtaining internal-use
software, payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees who are directly
associated with and devote time to the internal-use software project and
capitalized interest, if appropriate. Capitalization of such costs begins when
the preliminary project stage is complete and ceases no later than the point at
which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended
purpose.
Costs for
general and administrative, overhead, maintenance and training, as well as the
cost of software that does not add functionality to existing systems, are
expensed as incurred.
9
f) Goodwill
The
Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 requires an
annual impairment test for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, the first step of the impairment test
requires that the Company determine the fair value of its reporting unit, and
compare the fair value to the reporting unit's carrying amount. The Company has
only one reporting unit. To the extent the 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. The Company performs its annual
impairment test effective as of April 1 of each year, unless events or
circumstances indicate, an impairment may have occurred before that
time.
During
the second quarter of fiscal 2009, in connection with the preparation of the
condensed consolidated financial statements included herein the Company
concluded that indicators of potential impairment were present due to the
sustained decline in the Company’s share price which resulted in the market
capitalization of the Company being less than its book value. The
Company conducted an impairment test during the second quarter of fiscal 2009
based on the facts and circumstances at that time and its business strategy in
light of existing industry and economic conditions, as well as taking into
consideration future expectations. As the Company has significantly grown the
business since its initial acquisition of Airgroup, it has also grown its
customer relationship intangibles as the Company added additional
stations. Through its impairment testing and review, the Company
concluded that its discounted cashflow analysis supports a valuation of its
identifiable intangible assets well in excess of their carrying
value. Factoring this with management’s assessment of the fair value
of other assets and liabilities results in no residual implied fair value
remaining to be allocated to goodwill. However, SFAS 142 does not
allow the Company to recognize the previously unrecognized intangible assets in
connection with these new stations. As a result, at December 31,
2008, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of
$11.4 million. The Company does not expect this non-cash charge to have any
impact on the Company’s compliance with the financial covenants in its credit
agreement.
g)
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 5 years and non-compete
agreements are amortized using the straight line method consistent with the term
of the underlying agreement which generally extends for a period of 4 to 5
years. See Notes 3, 4 and 5.
The
Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which establishes accounting standards for
the impairment of long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company reviews long-lived assets
to be held-and-used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that 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 that no
impairment of the respective carrying value has occurred as of December 31,
2008.
h)
Commitments
The
Company has operating lease and capital lease commitments, some of which are for
office and warehouse space and equipment rentals and are under non-cancelable
operating leases expiring at various dates through December 2012. Future annual
commitments for years ending June 30, 2009 through 2013 are, respectively,
$519,314, $300,636, $144,628, $32,281, and $23,393.
10
i)
Income
Taxes
Taxes on
income are provided in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for
Income Taxes.”
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
expected future tax consequences of events that have been reflected in the
consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
determined based on the differences between the book values and the tax bases of
particular assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are
expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided to offset the net
deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely
than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.
The
Company accounts for uncertain income tax positions in accordance with FAS
Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an
Interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”), which was adopted by the
Company on July 1, 2007. Accordingly, 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.
j)
Revenue
Recognition and Purchased Transportation Costs
The
Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis, in accordance with Emerging Issues
Task Force ("EITF") 91-9, "Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net," as a result of
the following: 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-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 air and ocean freight revenues by
purchasing transportation services from direct (asset-based) carriers and
reselling those services to its customers. In accordance with EITF 91-9, revenue
from freight forwarding and export services is recognized at the time the
freight is tendered to the direct carrier at origin, and direct expenses
associated with the cost of transportation are accrued concurrently. At the time
when revenue is recognized on a transportation shipment, the Company records
costs related to that shipment based on the estimate of total purchased
transportation costs. The estimates are 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.
k)
Share based
Compensation
The
Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, "Share Based Payment,” a
revision of FASB Statement No. 123 ("SFAS 123R"). This statement requires that
the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in
the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company
follows the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 107, "Share-Based Payment" ("SAB 107"). SAB 107 provides
the SEC’s staff’s position regarding the application of SFAS 123R and certain
SEC rules and regulations, and also provides the staff’s views regarding the
valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SFAS 123R
requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee
stock options, to be recognized in the statement of operations based on their
fair values.
11
For the
three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company recorded a share based
compensation expense of $32,779, which, net of income taxes, resulted in a
$20,323 net reduction of net income. For the three months ended December 31,
2007, the Company recorded a share based compensation expense of $31,844, which,
net of income taxes, resulted in a $21,017 net reduction of net
income. For the six months ended December 31, 2008, the Company
recorded a share based compensation expense of $80,692, which, net of income
taxes, resulted in a $50,029 net reduction of net income. For the six months
ended December 31, 2007, the Company recorded a share based compensation expense
of $93,102, which, net of income taxes, resulted in a $61,447 net reduction of
net income.

|
Basic
and Diluted Income Per Share
|
The
Company uses SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" for calculating the 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 options, had been issued and if the additional
common shares were dilutive.
For the
three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the weighted average outstanding
number of dilutive common shares totaled 34,701,960 and 34,078,947,
respectively. Options to purchase 3,360,000 shares of common stock
were not included in the diluted EPS computation for the three months ended
December 31, 2008 as there was a loss for the period and they are thus
anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 1,375,000 shares of common stock
were not included in the diluted EPS computation for the three months ended
December 31, 2007 as the exercise prices of those options were greater than the
market price of the common shares and are thus anti-dilutive.
For the
six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the weighted average outstanding
number of dilutive common shares totaled 34,698,563 and 34,260,955,
respectively. Options to purchase 3,360,000 shares of common stock
were not included in the diluted EPS computation for the six months ended
December 31, 2008 as there was a loss for the period and they are thus
anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 1,375,000 shares of common stock
were not included in the diluted EPS computation for the six months ended
December 31, 2007 as the exercise prices of those options were greater than the
market price of the common shares and are thus anti-dilutive.
The
following table reconciles the numerator and denominator of the basic and
diluted per share computations for earnings per share as follows.

NOTE
3 – ACQUISITION OF ASSETS – AUTOMOTIVE
In May, 2007, the
Company launched a new logistics service offering focused on the automotive
industry through its wholly owned subsidiary, Radiant Logistics Global Services,
Inc. (“RLGS”). The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement
(the “APA”) with Mass Financial Corporation (“Mass”) to acquire certain assets
formerly used in the operations of the automotive division of Stonepath Group,
Inc. (the “Purchased Assets”). Pursuant to the initial APA, the
agreement of the transaction was valued at up to $2.75 million.
Concurrent
with the execution of the APA, the Company also entered into a Management
Services Agreement (“MSA”) with Mass, whereby it agreed to operate the Purchased
Assets within its automotive services group during the interim period pending
the closing under the APA. As part of the MSA, Mass agreed to
indemnify the Company from and against any and all expenses,
claims and damages arising out of or relating to any use by any of
the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates of the Purchased Assets and the
operation of the business utilizing the Purchased Assets.
Shortly
after commencing operation of the Purchased Assets pursuant to the MSA, a
judgment creditor of Stonepath (the “Stonepath Creditor”) issued garnishment
notices to the automotive customers being serviced by the Company disputing the
priority and superiority of the underlying security interests of Mass in the
Purchased Assets and asserting that the Company was in possession of certain
accounts receivable of other assets covered by a garnishment
notice. This resulted in a significant disruption to the automotive
business and the Company exercised an indemnity claim against Mass resulting in
a restructured transaction with Mass.
In
November 2007, the
purchase price of the purchased assets was reduced to $1.56 million, consisting
of cash of $560,000 and a $1.0 million credit in satisfaction of indemnity
claims asserted by the Company arising from its interim operation of the
Purchased Assets since May 22, 2007. Of the cash component of the transaction,
$100,000 was paid in May of 2007, $265,000 was paid at closing and a final
payment of $195,000 was to be paid in November of 2008, subject to off-set of up
to $75,000 for certain qualifying expenses incurred by the
Company. Net of qualifying expenses and a discount for accelerated
payment, the final payment was reduced to $95,000 and paid in June of
2008.
The
Company finalized its purchase price allocation in November 2008 resulting in a
decrease of net assets acquired by $63,000 due to unutilized transaction
costs. The total net assets acquired were $1.84
million. The purchase price of the acquired assets was comprised of
the $1.56 million purchase price less $25,000 for the early payment of the note,
and an additional $302,306 in acquisition expenses. Given the nature
of the transaction and the disruption to the business caused by the garnishment
proceedings, there were no covenant not to compete arrangements, continuing
customer contracts or similar amortizable intangibles associated with this
transaction. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price
based on the estimated fair value of the acquired assets at November 1,
2007. No liabilities were assumed in connection with the
transaction:

NOTE
4 – ACQUISITION OF ADCOM
On
September 5, 2008, the Company entered into and closed a Stock Purchase
Agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which it acquired 100% of the issued and
outstanding stock of Adcom Express, Inc., d/b/a Adcom Worldwide (“Adcom”), a
privately held Minnesota corporation. For financial accounting purposes, the
transaction was deemed to be effective as of September 1, 2008. The stock was
acquired from Robert F. Friedman, the sole shareholder of Adcom. The
total value of the transaction was $11,050,000, consisting of: (i) $4,750,000 in
cash paid at the closing; (ii) $250,000 in cash payable shortly after the
closing, subject to adjustment, based upon the working capital of Adcom as of
August 31, 2008; (iii) up to $2,800,000 in four “Tier-1 Earn-Out Payments” of up
to $700,000 each, covering the four year earn-out period through June 30, 2012,
based upon Adcom achieving certain levels of “Gross Profit Contribution” (as
defined in the Agreement), payable 50% in cash and 50% in shares of Company
common stock (valued at delivery date); (iv) a “Tier-2 Earn-Out Payment” of up
to $2,000,000, equal to 20% of the amount by which the Adcom cumulative Gross
Profit Contribution exceeds $16,560,000 during the four year earn-out period;
and (v) an “Integration Payment” of $1,250,000 payable on the earlier of the
date certain integration targets are achieved or 18 months after the closing,
payable 50% in cash and 50% in shares of Company common stock (valued at
delivery date). The Integration Payment, the Tier-1 Earn-Out Payments and
certain amounts of the Tier-2 Payments may be subject to acceleration upon
occurrence of a “Corporate Transaction” (as defined in the Agreement), which
includes a future sale of Adcom or the Company, or certain changes in corporate
control. The cash component of the transaction was financed through a
combination of existing funds and the proceeds from the Company’s revolving
credit facility.
Founded
in 1978, Adcom provides a full range of domestic and international freight
forwarding solutions to a diversified account base including manufacturers,
distributors and retailers through a combination of three company-owned and
twenty-seven independent agency locations across North America.
The
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and accordingly, the results of
operations and cash flows of Adcom have been included in the Company’s condensed
consolidated financial statements prospectively from the date of
acquisition. At September 30, 2008, the total purchase price
consisted of an initial payment of $4,750,000, an additional $136,796 in
acquisition expenses and net of an offset of $110,000 for certain liabilities
assumed in connection with the transaction. As part of the
acquisition we recorded $220,000 in restructuring charges that
are anticipated to be paid over the course of a year. Also included
in the acquisition is $1,250,000 in future integration payments (included in
current liabilities) and $394,408 in working capital and other
adjustments. In the second fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2008, we
incurred an additional $35,437 of integration costs. The following
table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on the
estimated fair value of the acquired assets at August 31, 2008.

9 – LONG TERM DEBT
In
September 2008, the Company’s $10 million revolving credit facility (Facility)
was increased from $10 million to $15 million. The 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 or for other corporate purposes. Borrowings
under the facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at the Bank’s prime
rate minus .15% to 1.00% or LIBOR plus 1.55% to 2.25%, and can be adjusted up or
down during the term of the Facility based on the Company’s performance relative
to certain financial covenants. The Facility provides for advances of up to 80%
of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable.
The terms
of the Facility are subject to certain financial and operational covenants which
may limit the amount otherwise available under the Facility. The first covenant
limits funded debt to a multiple of 3.00 times the Company’s consolidated EBITDA
measured on a rolling four quarter basis (or a multiple of 3.25 at a reduced
advance rate of 75.0%). The second financial covenant requires the Company to
maintain a basic fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.1 to 1.0. The third
financial covenant is a minimum profitability standard that requires the Company
not to incur a net loss before taxes, amortization of acquired intangibles and
extraordinary items in any two consecutive quarterly accounting
periods.
Under the
terms of the Facility, the Company is permitted to make additional acquisitions
without the lender's consent only if certain conditions are satisfied. The
conditions imposed by the Facility include the following: (i) the absence of an
event of default under the Facility, (ii) the company to be acquired must be in
the transportation and logistics industry, (iii) the purchase price to be paid
must be consistent with the Company’s historical business and acquisition model,
(iv) after giving effect for the funding of the acquisition, the Company must
have undrawn availability of at least $1.0 million under the Facility, (v) the
lender must be reasonably satisfied with projected financial statements the
Company provides covering a 12 month period following the acquisition, (vi) the
acquisition documents must be provided to the lender and must be consistent with
the description of the transaction provided to the lender, and (vii) the number
of permitted acquisitions is limited to three per calendar year and shall not
exceed $7.5 million in aggregate purchase price financed by funded debt. In the
event that the Company is not able to satisfy the conditions of the Facility in
connection with a proposed acquisition, it must either forego the acquisition,
obtain the lender's consent, or retire the Facility. This may limit or slow the
Company’s ability to achieve the critical mass it may need to achieve its
strategic objectives.
17
The
co-borrowers of the Facility include Radiant Logistics, Inc., Airgroup
Corporation, Radiant Logistics Global Services Inc. (“RLGS”), Radiant Logistics
Partners, LLC (“RLP”), and Adcom Express, Inc. (d/b/a Adcom Worldwide). RLP is
owned 40% by Airgroup and 60% by an affiliate of the Chief Executive Officer of
the Company, Radiant Capital Partners. 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 Facility, the accounts
receivable of RLP and RLGS 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 Facility, including
those advanced to RLP. At December 31, 2008, the Company was in compliance with
all of its covenants.
In
November 2008, the Company amended the Airgroup Stock Purchase Agreement and
agreed to unconditionally pay the former Airgroup shareholders an Earn-Out
payment of $633,333 for the Earn-Out Period ending June 30, 2009 to be paid on
or about October 1, 2009 and to be paid 100% by delivery of shares of the common
stock of the Company. This liability is recorded as Notes Payable –
current portion of long term debt.
As of
December 31, 2008, the Company had $7,895,440 in advances under the Facility and
$4,154,350 in outstanding checks, which had not yet been presented to the bank
for payment. The outstanding checks have been reclassified from cash, as they
will be advanced from, or against, the Facility when presented for payment to
the bank. These amounts total long term debt of $12,049,790.
At
December 31, 2008, based on available collateral and $205,000 in outstanding
letter of credit commitments, there was $3,391,664 available for borrowing under
the Facility based on advances outstanding.
NOTE
10 – PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
Deferred
income taxes are reported using the 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.
For the
three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company recognized net income tax
benefit of $382,690 consisting of current income tax benefit of $901,616 and
deferred income tax expense of $518,926.
For the
six months ended December 31, 2008, the Company recognized net income tax
benefit of $230,031 consisting of current income tax benefit of $796,897 and
deferred income tax expense of $566,866.
For the
three months ended December 31, 2007, the Company recognized net income tax
expense of $744,269 consisting of current income tax expense of $1,350,778 and
deferred income tax benefit of $606,509.
18
For the
six months ended December 31, 2007, the Company recognized net income tax
expense of $736,537 consisting of current income tax expense of $1,411,384 and
deferred income tax benefit of $674,847.
The
difference between the income tax benefit computed using statutory tax rates and
the income tax benefit recorded for the three and six months ended December 31,
2008, was due to permanent differences related to the goodwill
impairment.
NOTE
11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

ITEM
2. 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 financial statements and the
related notes and other information included elsewhere in this
report.
CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933 as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding future operating performance,
events, trends and plans. All statements other than statements of historical
fact contained herein, including, without limitation, statements regarding the
our future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected revenues
and costs, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be
identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,”
“expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or
“believes” or the negative thereof or any variation thereon or similar
terminology or expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements on
our current expectations and projections about future events. 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. 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 statements, such factors include the inherent risks
associated with our ability to: (i) to use Airgroup as a “platform” upon which
we can build a profitable global transportation and supply chain management
company; (ii) retain and build upon the relationships we have with our exclusive
agency offices; (iii) continue the development of our back office infrastructure
and transportation and accounting systems in a manner sufficient to service our
expanding revenues and base of exclusive agency locations; (iv) maintain the
future operations of Adcom in a manner consistent with its past practices, (v)
integrate the operations of Adcom with our existing operations, (vi) continue
growing our business and maintain historical or increased gross profit margins;
(vii) locate suitable acquisition opportunities; (viii) secure the financing
necessary to complete any acquisition opportunities we locate; (ix) assess and
respond to competitive practices in the industries in which we compete, (x)
mitigate, to the best extent possible, our dependence on current management and
certain of our larger exclusive agency locations; (xi) 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 (xii)
assess and respond to such other factors which may be identified from time to
time in our Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings and other public
announcements including those set forth in Part 1 Item 1A of our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. 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.

Overview
We are a
Bellevue, Washington based non-asset based logistics company providing domestic
and international freight forwarding services through a network of exclusive
agent offices across North America. Operating under the Airgroup and Adcom
brands, we service a diversified account base including manufacturers,
distributors and retailers using a network of independent carriers and
international agents positioned strategically around the world.
By
implementing a growth strategy, we intend to build a leading global
transportation and supply-chain management company offering a full range of
domestic and international freight forwarding and other value added supply chain
management services, including order fulfillment, inventory management and
warehousing.
As a
non-asset based provider of third-party logistics services, we seek to limit our
investment in equipment, facilities and working capital through contracts and
preferred provider arrangements with various transportation providers who
generally provide us with favorable rates, minimum service levels, capacity
assurances and priority handling status. Our non-asset based approach
allows us to maintain a high level of operating flexibility and leverage a cost
structure that is highly variable in nature while the volume of our flow of
freight enables us to negotiate attractive pricing with our transportation
providers.
Our
growth strategy continues to focus on both organic growth and acquisitions. From
an organic perspective, we are focused on strengthening existing and expanding
new customer relationships. One of the drivers of our organic growth
will be retaining existing, and securing new exclusive agency locations as well
as enhancing our back-office infrastructure and transportation and accounting
systems.
As we
continue to build out our network of exclusive agent locations to achieve a
level of critical mass and scale, we are executing an acquisition strategy to
develop additional growth opportunities. We continue to identify a
number of additional companies as suitable acquisition candidates and have
completed two material acquisitions over the past twelve
months. In November 2007, we purchased certain assets in
Detroit, Michigan to service the automotive industry. In September
2008, we acquired Adcom Express, Inc. d/b/a Adcom Worldwide (“Adcom”). Adcom is
a Minneapolis, Minnesota based logistics company contributing an additional 30
locations across North America and augmenting our overall domestic and
international freight forwarding capabilities.
21
We will
continue to search for targets that fit within our acquisition
criteria. Successful implementation of our growth strategy depends
upon a number of factors, including our ability to: (i) continue developing new
agency locations; (ii) locate acquisition opportunities; (iii) secure adequate
funding to finance identified acquisition opportunities; (iv) efficiently
integrate the businesses of the companies acquired; (v) generate the anticipated
economies of scale from the integration; and (vi) maintain the historic sales
growth of the acquired businesses in order to generate continued organic growth.
There are a variety of risks associated with our ability to achieve our
strategic objectives, including the ability to acquire and profitably manage
additional businesses and the intense competition in the industry for customers
and for acquisition candidates.
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
turn key 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 (truck, air, ocean or rail). In turn, we assume the responsibility for
arranging and paying for the underlying means of transportation.
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
arising from 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 actually 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. Further, the financial
covenants of our credit facility adjust EBITDA to exclude costs related to share
based compensation expense and other non-cash charges. Accordingly, we intend to
employ EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as management tools to measure our
historical financial performance and as benchmark for future financial
flexibility.
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
that historical seasonal patterns will continue in future periods. In
addition, our historical trends may be even less relevant in light of the
current global economic downturn. We can offer no assurance that these
conditions either will improve in the near future or will not
worsen.

Results
of Operations
Basis
of Presentation
The
results of operations discussion that appears below has been presented utilizing
a combination of historical and, where relevant, pro forma information to
include the effects on our consolidated financial statements of our recently
completed acquisition of Adcom. The pro forma information has been
presented for three and six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 as if we had
acquired Adcom as of July 1, 2007. The pro forma results are also
adjusted to reflect a consolidation of the historical results of operations of
Airgroup and the Company as adjusted to reflect the amortization of acquired
intangibles and are also provided in the condensed consolidated financial
statements included within this report.
The pro
forma financial data are not necessarily indicative of results of operations
that would have occurred had this acquisition been consummated at the beginning
of the periods presented or that might be attained in the future.
For
the three months ended December 31, 2008 (actual and unaudited) and December 31,
2007 (actual and unaudited)
We
generated transportation revenue of $42.5 million and $23.1 million and net
transportation revenue of $13.5 million and $8.4 million for the three months
ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Net loss was
$10,216,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 compared to net income
of $1,324,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007.
We had
adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)
of $1,382,000 and $534,000 for three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. EBITDA, is a non-GAAP measure of income and does not include the
effects of interest and taxes, and excludes the “non-cash” effects of
depreciation and amortization on current 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, plant and
equipment, and all amortization charges, including amortization of leasehold
improvements and other intangible assets. We then further adjust EBITDA to
exclude extraordinary items and costs related to share based compensation
expense, goodwill impairment charges and other non-cash charges consistent with
the financial covenants of our credit facility. As explained above, we believe
that EBITDA is useful to us and to our investors in evaluating and measuring our
financial performance. 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. Set
forth below is a reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to net income, the
most directly comparable GAAP measure for the three months ended December 31,
2008 and 2007.

Transportation
revenue was $42.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, an
increase of 84.0% over transportation revenue of $23.1 million for the three
months ended December 31, 2007. Domestic transportation revenue
increased by 49.2% to $22.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008
from $14.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The increase
was primarily due to additional domestic revenues associated with the Adcom
acquisition. Excluding the Adcom acquisition, domestic revenues for
the three months ended December 31, 2008 would have decreased by 6.2% to $13.8
million $14.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007.
International transportation revenue increased by 145.3% to $20.5 million for
the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $8.4 million for the comparable
prior year period, mainly attributed to additional international revenues and
the inclusion of international revenues associated with the Adcom acquisition.
Excluding the Adcom acquisition, international revenue for the three months
ended December 31, 2008 would have increased by 41.8% to $11.9 million from $8.4
million for the three months ended December 31, 2007.
Cost of
transportation increased to $29.0 million for the three months ended December
31, 2008 compared to $14.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007
as a result of additional revenues associated with the Adcom
transaction.
Net
transportation margins decreased to 31.7% of transportation revenue for the
three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to 36.3% of transportation
revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The net
transportation margins decreased in the current quarter due to the acquisition
of Adcom which has a higher percentage of international sales which generally
have lower margins.

We
generated transportation revenue of $74.9 million and $48.7 million and net

We had
adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)
of $2,176,000 and $961,000 for six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. EBITDA, is a non-GAAP measure of income and does not include the
effects of interest and taxes, and excludes the “non-cash” effects of
depreciation and amortization on current 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, plant and
equipment, and all amortization charges, including amortization of leasehold
improvements and other intangible assets. We then further adjust EBITDA to
exclude extraordinary items and costs related to share based compensation
expenses, goodwill impairment charges and other non-cash charges consistent with
the financial covenants of our credit facility. As explained above, we believe
that EBITDA is useful to us and to our investors in evaluating and measuring our
financial performance. 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. Set
forth below is a reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to net income, the
most directly comparable GAAP measure for the six months ended December 31, 2008
and 2007.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Net cash
used for operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2008 was
$1,792,000 compared to net cash provided by operating activities for the six
months ended December 31, 2007 of $626,000. The change was
principally driven by growth resulting in a decrease in working
capital.
Net cash
used for investing activities was $5,240,000 for the six months ended December
31, 2008 compared to net cash used of $2,110,000 for the six months ended
December 31, 2007. Use of cash for the six months ended December 31,
2008 consisted primarily of approximately $4.8 million for the acquisition of
Adcom, $191,000 spent on technology and equipment, and $210,244 in net issuances
of notes receivable. Use of cash for the six months ended December
31, 2007 consisted primarily of $1.9 million for the acquisition of automotive
assets and an additional $185,000 spent on technology and
equipment.
Net cash
provided by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2008 was
$7,664,000 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $961,000 for
the six months ended December 31, 2007. Net cash provided by
financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2008, consisted
primarily of borrowings from our credit facility for the acquisition of
Adcom and additional borrowings to support working capital requirements driven
by the growth of the business. Net cash provided by financing
activities for the six months ended December 31, 2007, consisted primarily of
borrowings from our credit facility offset by payments to our former Airgroup
shareholders.
Acquisitions
Below are
descriptions of material acquisitions made since 2006 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 $1.0 million or more.
Effective
January 1, 2006, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Airgroup. The transaction was valued at up to 14.0 million consisting
of: (i) $9.5 million payable in cash at closing; (ii) a subsequent cash payment
of $0.5 million in cash which was paid on December 31, 2007; (iii) as amended,
an additional base payment of $0.6 million payable in cash, $300,000 of which
was paid on June 30, 2008 and $300,000 was paid on January 1, 2009; (iv) a base
earn-out payment of $1.9 million payable in Company common stock over a six-year
earn-out period based upon Airgroup achieving income from continuing operations
of not less than $2.5 million per year and (v) as additional incentive to
achieve future earnings growth, an opportunity to earn up to an additional $1.5
million payable in Company common stock at the end of a five-year earn-out
period (the “Tier-2 Earn-Out”). Under Airgroup’s Tier-2 Earn-Out, the former
shareholders of Airgroup are entitled to receive 50% of the cumulative income
from continuing operations in excess of $15,000,000 generated during the
five-year earn-out period up to a maximum of $1,500,000. With respect
to the base earn-out payment of $1.9 million, in the event there is a shortfall
in income from continuing operations, the earn-out payment will be reduced on a
dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent of the shortfall. Shortfalls
may be carried over or carried back to the extent that income from continuing
operations in any other payout year exceeds the $2.5 million
level. For the year ended June 30, 2007, the former shareholders of
Airgroup earned $214,000 in base earn-out payments. For the year
ended June 30, 2008, the former shareholders of Airgroup earned and additional
$417,000 in base earn-out payments.
33
During
the quarter ended December 31, 2007, we adjusted the estimate of accrued
transportation costs assumed in the acquisition of Airgroup which resulted in
the recognition of approximately $1.4 million in non-recurring
income. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, the former
shareholders of Airgroup have indemnified us for taxes of $487,000 associated
with the income recognized in connection with this change in estimate which has
been reflected as a reduction of the additional base payment otherwise payable
to the former shareholders of Airgroup.
In
November 2008, the Company amended the Airgroup Stock Purchase Agreement and
agreed to unconditionally pay the former Airgroup shareholders an earn-out
payment of $633,333 for the earn-out period ending June 30, 2009 to be paid on
or about October 1, 2009 by delivery of shares of common stock of the
Company. In consideration for the certainty of the earn-out payment,
the former Airgroup shareholders have agreed (i) to waive and release the
Company from any and all further obligations to pay any earn-outs payments on
account of shortfall amounts, if any, that may have accumulated prior to
June 30, 2009; (ii) to waive and release the Company from any and all
further obligation to account for and pay to the Tier-2 earn-out payment; and
(iii) that the earn-out payment to be paid for the earn-out period ending June
30, 2009 will constitute a full and final payment to the former Airgroup
shareholders of any and all amounts due to the former Airgroup shareholders
under the Airgroup Stock Purchase Agreement.
In May,
2007, we launched a new logistics service offering focused on the automotive
industry through our wholly owned subsidiary, Radiant Logistics Global Services,
Inc. (“RLGS”). We entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the
“APA”) with Mass Financial Corporation (“Mass”) to acquire certain assets
formerly used in the operations of the automotive division of Stonepath Group,
Inc. (the “Purchased Assets”). Pursuant to the initial APA, the
original agreement of the transaction was valued at up to $2.75 million, and was
later reduced due to indemnity claims asserted against Mass.
In
November 2007, the
purchase price was reduced to $1.56 million, consisting of cash of $560,000 and
a $1.0 million credit in satisfaction of indemnity claims asserted by us arising
from our interim operation of the Purchased Assets since May 22, 2007. Of the
cash component, $100,000 was paid in May of 2007, $265,000 was paid at closing,
and a final payment of $195,000 was to be paid in November of 2008, subject to
off-set of up to $75,000 for certain qualifying expenses incurred by
us. Net of qualifying expenses and a discount for accelerated
payment, the final payment was reduced to $95,000 and paid in June of
2008. For more information, see Note 3 to our consolidated financial
statement included elsewhere herein.
Effective
September 1, 2008, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Adcom Express,
Inc. The transaction was valued at up to $11,050,000, consisting of:
(i) $4,750,000.00 in cash paid at the closing; (ii) $250,000 in cash payable
shortly after the closing, subject to adjustment, based upon the working capital
of Adcom as of August 31, 2008; (iii) up to $2,800,000 in four “Tier-1 Earn-Out
Payments” of up to $700,000 each, covering the four year earn-out period through
June 30, 2012, based upon Adcom achieving certain levels of “Gross Profit
Contribution” (as defined in the agreement), payable 50% in cash and 50% in
shares of our common stock (valued at delivery date); (iv) a “Tier-2 Earn-Out
Payment” of up to a maximum of $2,000,000, equal to 20% of the amount by which
the Adcom cumulative Gross Profit Contribution exceeds $16,560,000 during the
four year earn-out period; and (v) an “Integration Payment” of $1,250,000
payable on the earlier of the date certain integration targets are achieved or
18 months after the closing, payable 50% in cash and 50% in our shares of our
common stock (valued at delivery date).
A dispute
has arisen between us and Robert Friedman, the former shareholder of Adcom, in
connection with our purchase of Adcom. Pursuant to the stock purchase agreement
governing the transaction, the final purchase price was to be adjusted
post-closing based upon, among other things, the closing date working capital of
Adcom. As of the date of this report, we have been unable to agree with Mr.
Friedman on the amount of Adcom's closing date working capital. In
addition, based upon information developed after the closing, we have
asserted certain claims which we believe constitute breaches of the
representations and warranties included in the stock purchase agreement. If we
are unable to resolve our differences, we will be caused to seek dispute
resolution in the manner governed by the stock purchase agreement. We have
fully accrued for all amounts potentially due Mr. Friedman in connection with
the stock purchase agreement, but believe these amounts could be reduced by more
than $500,000 pending the resolution of the disputed amounts in our
favor. Due to the initial stage of the proceedings, we are able
to provide any definitive guidance on the likely outcome of
this matter. Assuming minimum targeted earnings levels are
achieved, the following table summarizes our contingent base earn-out payments
related to the acquisition of Adcom, for the fiscal years indicated based on
results of the prior year (in thousands):

Credit
Facility
We
currently have a $15 million revolving credit facility (“Facility”) with Bank of
America, NA that expires in 2011. The Facility is collateralized by
accounts receivable and other assets of the Company and our
subsidiaries. Advances under the Facility are available to fund
future acquisitions, capital expenditures or for other corporate purposes.
Borrowings under the facility bear interest, at our option, at the Bank’s prime
rate minus .15% to 1.00% or LIBOR plus 1.55% to 2.25%, and can be adjusted up or
down during the term of the Facility based on our performance relative to
certain financial covenants. The Facility provides for advances of up to 80% of
our eligible accounts receivable.
The terms
of the Facility are subject to certain financial and operational covenants which
may limit the amount otherwise available under the Facility. The
first covenant limits funded debt to a multiple of 3.00 times our consolidated
EBITDA measured on a rolling four quarter basis (or a multiple of 3.25 at a
reduced advance rate of 75.0%). The second financial covenant requires that we
maintain a basic fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.1 to 1.0. The third
financial covenant is a minimum profitability standard that requires that we not
incur a net loss before taxes, amortization of acquired intangibles and
extraordinary items in any two consecutive quarterly accounting
periods.
Under the
terms of the Facility, we are permitted to make additional acquisitions without
the lender's consent only if certain conditions are satisfied. The conditions
imposed by the Facility include the following: (i) the absence of an event of
default under the Facility, (ii) the company to be acquired must be in the
transportation and logistics industry, (iii) the purchase price to be paid must
be consistent with the our historical business and acquisition model, (iv) after
giving effect for the funding of the acquisition, we must have undrawn
availability of at least $1.0 million under the Facility, (v) the lender must be
reasonably satisfied with projected financial statements that we provide
covering a 12 month period following the acquisition, (vi) the acquisition
documents must be provided to the lender and must be consistent with the
description of the transaction provided to the lender, and (vii) the number of
permitted acquisitions is limited to six per calendar year and shall not exceed
$7.5 million in aggregate purchase price financed by funded debt. In the event
that we are not able to satisfy the conditions of the Facility in connection
with a proposed acquisition, we must either, forego the acquisition, obtain the
lender's consent, or retire the Facility. This may limit or slow our ability to
achieve the critical mass we may need to achieve our strategic
objectives.
35
Given our
continued focus on the build-out of our network of exclusive agency locations,
we believe that our current working capital and anticipated cash flow from
operations are adequate to fund existing operations. 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. In
this regard and in the course of executing our acquisition strategy, we expect
to pursue an additional equity offering within the next twelve
months.
We have
used a significant amount of our available capital to finance the acquisition of
Adcom. We currently have approximately $2.7 million in remaining
availability under the 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 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.
Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
December 31, 2008, 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.
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. Those judgments are normally based on knowledge and
experience with regard 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 the assessment of the recoverability of
long-lived assets, specifically goodwill, acquired intangibles, and revenue
recognition.
We follow
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 requires an annual impairment
test for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Under the
provisions of SFAS No. 142, the first step of the impairment test requires that
we determine the fair value of its reporting unit, and compare the fair value to
the reporting unit’s carrying amount. The Company has only one reporting
unit. To the extent the 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 perform our annual impairment test during our fiscal
fourth quarter unless events or circumstances indicate an impairment may have
occurred before that time.
36
During
the second quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company concluded that indicators of
potential impairment were present due to the sustained decline in the Company’s
share price which resulted in the market capitalization of the Company being
less than its book value. The Company conducted an impairment test
during the second quarter of fiscal 2009 based on present facts and
circumstances at that time and its business strategy in light of existing
industry and economic conditions, as well as taking into consideration future
expectations. As the Company has significantly grown the business since its
initial acquisition of Airgroup, it has also grown its customer relationship
intangibles as the Company added additional stations. Through its
impairment testing and review the Company concluded that its discounted cashflow
analysis supports a valuation of its identifiable intangible assets well in
excess of their carrying value. Factoring this with management’s
assessment of the fair value of other assets and liabilities results in no
residual implied fair value remaining to be allocated to
goodwill. However, SFAS 142 does not allow the Company to recognize
the previously unrecognized intangible assets in connection with these new
stations. As a result, at December 31, 2008, the Company
recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $11.4 million. The
Company does not expect this non-cash charge to have any impact on the Company’s
compliance with the financial covenants in its credit agreement.
Acquired
intangibles consist of customer related intangibles and non-compete agreements
arising from our acquisition. Customer related intangibles will be amortized
using accelerated methods over approximately 5 years and non-compete agreements
will be amortized using the straight line method over a 5 year
period.
We follow
the provisions of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets, which establishes accounting standards for the impairment of
long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
subject to amortization. We review long-lived assets to be held-and-used for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that 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 estimated 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. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 91-9 “Revenue
and Expense Recognition for Freight Services in Process”, revenue from freight
forwarding and export services is recognized at the time the freight is tendered
to the direct carrier at origin, and direct expenses associated with the cost of
transportation are accrued concurrently. These accrued purchased transportation
costs are estimates 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 to reflect differences between the original accruals and actual
costs of purchased transportation.
We
recognize revenue on a gross basis, in accordance with EITF 99-19, "Reporting
Revenue Gross versus Net", as a result of the following: We are the primary
obligor responsible for providing the service desired by the customer and are
responsible for fulfillment, including the acceptability of the service(s)
ordered or purchased by the customer. We, at our sole discretion, set the prices
charged to our customers, and are not required to obtain approval or consent
from any other party in establishing our prices. We have multiple
suppliers for the services we sell to our customers, and have 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-by-shipment basis. In most cases, we determine the nature, type,
characteristics, and specifications of the service(s) ordered by the customer.
We also assume credit risk for the amount billed to the customer.

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 Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of December 31, 2008 was carried
out by our management under the supervision and with the participation of our
Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer
("CFO"). Based upon that evaluation, our CEO/CFO concluded that, as of December
31, 2008, our disclosure controls and procedures were not 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/CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding disclosure.
In
connection with its review of our quarterly results for the period ended
December 31, 2008, our independent auditor identified a material adjustment that
was required to recognize an impairment to goodwill. As a result, we
have concluded that there is a material weakness regarding our goodwill and
intangible assets impairment analysis process. We are currently
evaluating how to effectively remediate this material weakness. In
this regard, we continue to review our disclosure controls and procedures,
including our internal control over financial reporting, and intend to make
changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems
evolve with our business.
There
were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the
fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2008 that materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item
1. Legal Proceedings.
From time
to time, our operating subsidiary, Airgroup, is involved in legal matters or
named as a defendant in legal actions arising in its ordinary course of
business. Management believes that these matters will not have a
material adverse effect on our financial statements.
Automotive
Garnishment Proceeding and Burke Proceeding
On June
15, 2007, writs of garnishment issued by Douglas Burke (“Burke”), a judgment
creditor of Stonepath Logistics, Domestic Services, Inc. (“Stonepath”), were
directed to, among others, the automotive customers being serviced by our
Radiant Logistics Global Services, Inc. (“RLGS”) subsidiary pursuant to the
Management Services Agreement between RLGS and Mass Financial Corp.
(“Mass”). Together with Mass, RLGS intervened in the matter and
objected to the writs of garnishment for the reason that Mass’s interest in the
former Stonepath assets originated as the result of a prior perfected security
interest that was properly foreclosed upon by Mass. The matter was
pending in the Circuit Court for the County of Wayne, State of Michigan, Case
No. 04-433025-CA (the “State Court Actions). On August 14, 2007, a
Stipulated Order Regarding Writs of Garnishment was entered whereby Mass posted
a letter of credit in the amount of $2,750,000 for the benefit of
Burke. Upon posting of that letter of credit, the garnished customers
were released from the writs of garnishment and directed to release all
garnished funds and make all future payments as directed to Mass and our RLGS
subsidiary.
On or
about January 18, 2007, Burke filed a separate suit against RLGS in the 3rd
Circuit Court, Wayne County, Michigan (the “Civil Action”). In the
complaint, Burke sought to enforce against RLGS a $2.2 million judgment
Burke obtained against Stonepath, the former owners of the assets RLGS purchased
from Mass, under legal theories sounding in successor liability, alter-ego,
piercing the corporate veil, and implied or express agreement. The amount at
issue was secured by a $2.75 million letter of credit provided by Mass in
connection with the acquisition of the purchased assets. RLGS removed
the matter to the Federal District Court sitting in the Eastern District of
Michigan and filed a motion to dismiss or stay the proceedings pending the
outcome of the related Automotive Garnishment Proceeding described
above. The court issued a stay of proceedings pending the outcome of
the related Automotive Garnishment Proceeding.
On
February 9, 2009, RLGS entered into a Release and Settlement Agreement with
Burke pursuant to which RLGS (i) dismissed its objections to writs of
garnishment entered in favor of Burke (ii) withdrew as an intervening party to
the State Court Action and (iii) agreed to take no further action or position as
a party to the State Court Action. In consideration n of the
forgoing, Burke (i) released RLGS from any and all claims related to the writs
of garnishment, the underlying judgment or the Civil Action, (ii) consented to
Civil Action being dismissed with prejudice, and (iii) agreed that his recovery,
if any, with respect to RLGS will be limited to the letter of credit posted by
Mass.
