Management Commentary

"We delivered a strong second quarter by translating solid demand and disciplined execution into both revenue growth and meaningful margin expansion," said Robert Dawson, Chief Executive Officer of RF Industries. "Second quarter revenue of nearly $21 million increased both year-over-year and sequentially, while gross profit margin expanded to 35%, a 360 basis-point gain over the comparable period a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA nearly doubled year-over-year to $2 million, and we also delivered positive consolidated net income of $879,000 compared to a loss of $245,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. These bottom-line results demonstrate the improved product mix and operating leverage that our team has achieved over the past couple of years. Importantly, we continued to generate robust bookings, driving backlog to $20 million at quarter end and reinforcing our visibility into the second half of the fiscal year."

"Our team continues to execute on our long-term plans as we expand into higher-value applications with our small cell, DAC, and custom cabling solutions. Our strategy to diversify our end markets not only helped mitigate customer and revenue concentration but also opened direct access to some of the most dynamic sectors in our economy-aerospace, data centers and AI infrastructure, transportation, and public safety, as well as new opportunities in telecommunications. We believe the progress we are making is increasingly evident in our financial results. With improved profitability, a strengthened backlog, and continued operational discipline, we believe we are positioned to build on this momentum and deliver a solid performance in the second half of fiscal 2026," concluded Dawson.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our unaudited condensed financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release and the accompanying tables and the related earnings conference call contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share, basic and diluted (non-GAAP EPS).

We believe these financial measures provide useful information to investors with which to analyze our operating trends and performance by excluding certain non-cash and other one-time expenses that we believe are not indicative of our operating results.

In computing Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS, we exclude stock-based compensation expense, which represents non-cash charges for the fair value of stock options and other non-cash awards granted to employees, non-cash and other one-time charges, severance, amortization expense and provision from income taxes. For Adjusted EBITDA, we also exclude depreciation and interest expense. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company's non-cash operating expenses, we believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude non-cash expense and non-recurring costs and expenses allows for meaningful comparisons between our core business operating results and those of other companies, as well as provides us with an important tool for financial and operational decision-making and for evaluating our own core business operating results over different periods of time.

Our Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. Our Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating or net income or as an indication of operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. We do not consider these non-GAAP measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results. Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to limitations and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our GAAP results of operations. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance. A reconciliation of specific adjustments to GAAP results is provided in the last two tables at the end of this press release.

In addition, we have included order bookings and backlog in this earnings release. Bookings represent new orders that have been received inclusive of any modification or cancellation of previous orders. Backlog represents orders that have been received where revenue has not been recognized as of the specified date. We believe both Bookings and Backlog are indicators of future revenues that the Company expects to generate based on orders that management believes to be firm.
