On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (H.R. 1) (the "Act") was signed into law. The Act includes numerous changes in existing tax law, including a permanent reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. The Act contains other provisions that are not expected to materially impact the Company. As a result of the reduction in the federal income tax rates, the effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 was 21.9% from the prescribed blending of old and new federal income tax rates and the reduction of certain deferred tax liabilities previously recorded. Third quarter diluted earnings per share increased $0.07 to $0.25, of which $0.04 of the increase was due to the Act.

Service revenue increased 7.5% on all organic growth, and was comprised of new business from the life science market and growth in general industrial manufacturing, which includes both the defense and aerospace markets.

Gross profit increased $0.4 million and gross margin improved 30 basis points due to productivity improvements, including the ramp-up in productivity from technicians hired earlier in the fiscal year.

The Distribution sales increase reflected higher demand from industrial customers, including new equipment sold through the Company’s independent representative network and increased web-based sales. It also reflects higher rental revenue, which was up 44% to $1.0 million in the quarter. Despite a decrease in year over year volume-based vendor rebates, the segment recorded a 40 basis point improvement in gross margin.

Nine Month Review (Results are compared with the first nine months of fiscal 2017)

Total revenue was $112.7 million, up 6.9%, or $7.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2018, all from organic growth. Consolidated gross margin was 23.6% of revenue, down 30 basis points primarily due to Service segment productivity challenges earlier in fiscal 2018. As a percentage of total revenue, consolidated operating expenses were 18.7%, down 10 basis points. As a result, operating income increased $0.2 million to $5.5 million, or 4.9% of revenue. Net income was $3.5 million compared with $3.1 million, of which $0.3 million of this increase was from lower income tax expense resulting from the new tax Act. Adjusted EBITDA improved 7.3% to $11.1 million. See Note 1 on page 4 for a description of this non-GAAP financial measure and page 9 for the Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation table.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Overview

Capital expenditures were $5.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2018. Investments were primarily for assets for customer-driven expansion of Service segment capabilities, including mobile calibration fleet investments and RF/electronics assets for the aerospace/defense and life science markets, and purchases of rental business assets.

On October 30, 2017, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit facility agreement, which extended the term of the Company’s $30.0 million revolving credit facility to 2021 and increased the amount of the term loan to $15.0 million, replacing the previous term loan. The excess funds of the new term loan were used to repay amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

At December 23, 2017, the Company had total debt of $26.2 million, with $18.4 million available under its credit facility. Total debt compared with fiscal 2017 year-end was down $1.1 million. The Company’s leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, was 1.72 at December 23, 2017, compared with 1.88 at fiscal 2017 year-end.

As previously announced, on December 20, 2017, the Company filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Under the shelf registration statement, the Company may from time to time in one or more future offerings, issue various types of securities up to an aggregate amount of $50 million. Mr. Rudow noted, “While we have no immediate plans to use this registration statement, we are being proactive in our efforts to support our growth strategy.” The SEC declared the shelf registration statement effective on January 5, 2018.

Outlook

Mr. Rudow concluded, “We believe we are well positioned and on track for a record year in fiscal 2018. Our multi-year operational excellence initiatives are starting to gain traction and are positively impacting both segments. Our Service segment continues to strengthen its market position, particularly in the life science space where we believe our value proposition resonates the most, and where regulation and the high cost of failure drive recurring revenue streams. We will continue to focus on leveraging technology as a competitive advantage and a driver of increased margins.”

Given the changes to the federal corporate income tax rate, Transcat expects its blended income tax rate for fiscal year 2018 to range between 28% and 29%. For fiscal year 2019, the Company expects its effective income tax rate to be approximately 26%.

The Company tightened its capital expenditures expectations for the full year fiscal 2018 to a range of $6.0 million to $6.3 million, which is being used primarily for IT infrastructure investments to drive operational excellence, specific customer-opportunity driven Service capabilities and additional assets for the Company’s growing rental business.

NOTE 1 – Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting net income, a U.S. generally accepted accounting principle (“GAAP”) measure, we present Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and non-cash stock-based compensation expense), which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company’s management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of its core operations from period to period by removing the impact of the capital structure (interest), tangible and intangible asset base (depreciation and amortization), taxes, and stock-based compensation expense, which is not always commensurate with the reporting period in which it is included. As such, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of performance when evaluating its business segments and as a basis for planning and forecasting. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not calculated through the application of GAAP. As such, it should not be considered as a substitute for the GAAP measure of net income and, therefore, should not be used in isolation of, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies. See the attached Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation table on page 9.
