RCM Technologies reported revenue of $77.7 million for the twenty-six week period ended June 27, 2020 (the current period), a 24.1% decrease as compared to $102.3 million for the twenty-six week period ended June 29, 2019 (the comparable prior year period).

Bradley Vizi, Executive Chairman of RCM Technologies, commented, “We believe that RCM performed well against our COVID plan that we outlined in May. We outlined a plan where we would surgically cut non-critical SGA expenses and focus heavily on utilization and gross margin, while at the same time working to maximize cash flow from operations. We are pleased with the results on all three fronts and look forward to the second half of 2020.”

Kevin Miller, Chief Financial Officer of RCM Technologies, commented, “As we reduced our net debt by 51% in only thirteen weeks, from $32.1 million on March 28, 2020, to $15.7 million on June 27, 2020, I believe we executed well against this high second-quarter priority. We expect to reduce our debt further during the third quarter.”

Conference Call
On Tuesday, August 11, 2020, RCM Technologies will host a conference call to discuss these results. The call will begin at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The dial-in number is (866)-578-1005.

Supplemental Operating Results on a Non-GAAP Basis
(Unaudited)
(In Thousands)

The following non-GAAP data, which adjusts for the categories of expenses described below, is a non-GAAP financial measure. Our management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful information for investors, shareholders and other stakeholders of our Company in gauging our results of operations on an ongoing basis. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are performance measures and have provided a reconciliation between net income and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of performance. In addition, neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA takes into account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes that can affect cash flows. We do not intend the presentation of these non-GAAP measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following unaudited table presents the Company's GAAP net income measure and the corresponding adjustments used to calculate “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019.
