RCM Technologies, Inc. Announces First Quarter Results


PENNSAUKEN, N.J., May 10, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RCM Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:RCMT), a premier provider of business and technology solutions designed to enhance and maximize the operational performance of its customers through the adaptation and deployment of advanced engineering, information technology and specialty health care services, today announced financial results for the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2016.

RCM Technologies reported revenues of $47.2 million for the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2016, a 1.6% decrease as compared to $48.0 million for the thirteen week period ended April 4, 2015 (the comparable prior year period). Gross profit was $12.7 million for the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2016, a 4.7% decrease as compared to $13.3 million for the comparable prior year period.  Operating income was $1.8 million for the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2016, a 22.7% decrease as compared to $2.4 million for the comparable prior year period. Net income for the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2016 was $1.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as compared to $1.4 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.

On the last day of fiscal 2015 the Company disposed of its QAD Software Solutions business unit (“QAD Business”) which for the comparable prior year period generated $1.0 million in revenues and $0.6 million in gross profit. 

Rocco Campanelli, President and Chief Executive Officer of RCM Technologies, commented, “We are pleased with the results of the first quarter of fiscal 2016. We continue to build our pipeline with new and existing clients and believe we will have a strong second half of the year. Of significant note, our Healthcare segment continues to excel by setting historically high quarterly revenues and gross profit. Both our Engineering and Information Technology segments met our expectation for this quarter and while revenue and gross profit were slightly less than recent quarters, we are confident that both of these groups will realize improved results in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2016.”

Kevin Miller, Chief Financial Officer of RCM Technologies, added, “Consolidated results for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 were in line with management’s expectations. We expect a significant increase in demand from our Canadian Engineering clients in the second half of fiscal 2016 and beyond. We are ready to meet that demand; however, predicting the quarterly timing of the increase in demand can be a challenge. We anticipate that our second quarter operating income results will continue to be soft as we manage our bench in Canada.”

Conference Call
On Wednesday, May 11, 2016, RCM Technologies will host a conference call to discuss these results. The call will begin at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.  The dial-in number is (800) 285-6670.
