IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Transcat Reports 4% Revenue Growth for Fiscal 2018 Second Quarter

● Solid organic growth drives Service segment revenue up nearly 8%

● Revenue and operating income impacted by Hurricanes Harvey and Maria

● Increased focus on Service segment productivity initiatives

ROCHESTER, NY, October 24, 2017 – Transcat, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRNS) (“Transcat” or the “Company”), a leading provider of accredited calibration, repair, inspection and laboratory instrument services and value-added distributor of professional grade handheld test, measurement and control instrumentation, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended September 23, 2017 of fiscal year 2018, which ends March 31, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”).

Lee D. Rudow, President and CEO, commented, “Our Service business generated solid organic growth of nearly eight percent, driven by continued market share gains, despite the adverse impact Hurricane Harvey had on our largest lab, which is located in Houston. The lab sustained minimal damage and all of our employees are safe. However, the lab was significantly impacted by disruptions with our staff, customers and supply chain resulting in lower productivity and gross margin. Our Puerto Rico lab is much smaller and Hurricane Maria had a limited impact on second quarter results given its timing, but we anticipate that future periods will be affected given the expected prolonged recovery for the region. Our second quarter results do not include any amounts for potential recovery from various insurance coverages that we have in place.

“Distribution sales, which to a lesser extent were impacted by the hurricanes, were up slightly in the second quarter. This marks the fifth consecutive quarter-over-quarter period of sales growth, which we believe demonstrates the sustainable opportunity for this segment. The continued strength in industrial markets has helped, but we believe we are also benefiting from our web marketing and technology-based investments combined with our expansion into the rental and used equipment business.”

Despite the impact of natural disasters, Transcat achieved quarterly revenue growth of 4.2% to $35.9 million. However, consolidated gross profit and margin were impacted by the effect of Hurricane Harvey and Maria and overall lower short-term productivity in the Service segment. Administrative expenses were up $0.4 million to $2.7 million, which reflected the Company’s continued investment in operating infrastructure and operational excellence initiatives. As a result, operating income decreased by $0.1 million and operating margin decreased 50 basis points to 4.1%. The effective tax rate increased slightly from 33.9% to 34.2%.

Service segment delivers strong organic growth while focusing on productivity enhancements

Represents the accredited calibration, repair, inspection and laboratory instrument services business (51% of total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2018).

Service revenue increased 7.6% on all organic growth. On a trailing twelve-month basis, Service segment revenue was $73.7 million, a 12.4% improvement compared with the trailing twelve-month period ending with the prior-year second quarter.

Gross margins were negatively impacted by the hurricanes and short-term productivity constraints from the hiring and ramping-up of new technicians.

Diversified sales channels lift Distribution segment

Represents the distribution and rental of new and used professional grade handheld test, measurement and control instrumentation (49% of total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2018).

The Distribution sales increase reflected higher demand from industrial customers, including those sold through the Company’s independent representative network, and increased rental business, somewhat offset by reduced shipments to Texas, which was attributed to the hurricane, and softness in the alternative energy market. The sales mix, along with a decrease in volume-based vendor rebates, resulted in a 50 basis point decline in segment gross margin. Segment operating profit declined by

$0.1 million and segment operating margin declined by 70 basis points due to increased general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower selling expenses.

Six Month Review (Results are compared with the first six months of fiscal 2017)

Total revenue increased 6.8%, or $4.6 million, to $72.2 million on all organic growth. Consolidated gross profit was $16.8 million, or 23.3% of revenue, down 80 basis points primarily due to the factors described in the second quarter fiscal 2018 review. As a percentage of total revenue, consolidated operating expenses were 19.4%, down 20 basis points. As a result, operating income was down slightly at $2.9 million, or 4.0% of revenue. Net income was $1.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared with $1.8 million, or $0.25 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA improved 4.0% to $6.7 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 $3.9 million for the first six months of fiscal 2018. Investments were primarily for assets for customer-driven expansion of Service segment capabilities, including mobile calibration fleet investments and aerospace/defense sector assets, and purchases of rental business assets.

At September 23, 2017, the Company had total debt of $29.7 million, with $8.3 million available under its secured revolving credit facility. This represents a $2.3 million decrease since the end of the trailing first quarter of fiscal 2018. Total debt compared with fiscal 2017 year-end was up $2.4 million, which reflects the timing of capital investments and changes in working capital, especially the timing of customer receivables collections and payments to suppliers.

Outlook

Mr. Rudow concluded, “While the impact of natural disasters has been trying and will put some pressure on the back half of fiscal 2018 depending on the recovery timeframes of our customers, we continue to make progress executing our strategy. Our strong value proposition rooted in the unique combination of our value-added Distribution segment and our growing Service organization, continues to resonate in the market and support solid growth.

“In the second half of the year we will continue to drive operational excellence throughout the organization. In our Service segment, we are laser-focused on improving productivity and we expect more gross profit to be generated. In fact, we expect the increase in productivity to significantly help to offset the setbacks caused by nature. We believe increased productivity in our labs, in concert with our operational excellence initiatives, creates an improved business model as impactful as the anticipated leverage we can gain from greater volume.”

Transcat expects its income tax rate to range between 34% and 36% for full year fiscal 2018.

The Company still expects capital expenditures for the full year fiscal 2018 to be in the $6.0 million to $6.5 million range and to be 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.
