**RESOURCES CONNECTION, INC.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

**(Unaudited)** 

**1. Description of the Company and its Business** 

Resources Connection, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on November 16, 1998. The Company's operating entities provide services primarily under the name Resources Global Professionals ("RGP"). RGP is a global professional services firm with three decades of experience helping the world's top organizations navigate change and seize opportunity. With three integrated offerings—On-Demand Talent, Consulting, and Outsourced Services—the Company provides CFOs and other C-suite leaders with the flexibility to solve today's most pressing challenges. The Company's principal markets of operations are North America, Europe & Asia Pacific.

The Company's fiscal year consists of 52 or 53 weeks, ending on the Saturday in May closest to May 31. The first quarters of fiscal 2026 and 2025 each consisted of 13 weeks. The Company's fiscal year 2026 will consist of 52 weeks.

**2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** 

***Basis of Presentation***

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company as of and for the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024 have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. These financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) the Company's management considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position at such dates and the operating results and cash flows for those periods. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes these estimates and assumptions are adequate, actual results could materially differ from the estimates and assumptions used as new information is learned or upon the amounts becoming fixed or determinable.

The fiscal 2025 year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules or regulations; however, the Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The unaudited consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2025, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Fiscal Year 2025 Form 10-K") filed with the SEC on July 28, 2025 (File No. 000-32113).

A complete listing of the Company's significant accounting policies is discussed in Note 2 – *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Fiscal Year 2025 Form 10-K.

***Reporting Segments***

The Company's reportable segments are comprised of On-Demand Talent, Consulting, Europe & Asia Pacific, and Outsourced Services. Sitrick, a crisis communications and public relations firm, does not individually meet the quantitative thresholds to qualify as a reportable segment. Therefore, Sitrick is disclosed under the "All Other" segment. See Note 12 — *Segment and Enterprise Reporting* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these segments. Each segment reports through separate segment managers to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, who are collectively designated as the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") for segment reporting purposes. Each of these segments represents a reporting unit for the purposes of assessing goodwill for impairment.

On July 1, 2024, the Company acquired Reference Point LLC ("Reference Point"). Reference Point is reported as part of the Consulting reportable segment. See Note 4 – *Acquisitions* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

***Revenue Recognition***

The Company generates substantially all of its revenues from providing professional consulting services to its clients. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised service is transferred to the Company's clients, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected in exchange for the services rendered. Revenue is recorded net of sales or other transaction taxes collected from clients and remitted to taxing authorities. Revenues for the vast majority of our contracts are recognized over time, based on hours worked by the Company's professionals. The performance of the agreed-to service over time is the single performance obligation for revenues. Certain clients may receive discounts (for example, volume discounts or rebates) to the amounts billed. These discounts or rebates are considered variable consideration. Management evaluates the facts and circumstances of each contract and client relationship to estimate the variable consideration assessing the most likely amount to recognize and considering management's expectation of the volume of services to be provided over the applicable period. Rebates are the largest component of variable consideration and are estimated using the most-likely-amount method, contracts terms and estimates of revenue. Revenues are recognized net of variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenues will not occur in subsequent periods.

On a limited basis, the Company may have fixed-price contracts, for which revenues are recognized over time using the input method based on time incurred as a proportion of estimated total time. Time incurred represents work performed, which corresponds with, and therefore best depicts, the transfer of control to the client. Management uses significant judgments when estimating the total hours expected to complete the contract performance obligation. It is possible that updated estimates for consulting engagements may vary from initial estimates with such updates being recognized in the period of determination. Depending on the timing of billings and services rendered, the Company accrues or defers revenue as appropriate.

The Company recognizes revenues primarily on a gross basis as it acts as a principal for primarily all of its revenue transactions. The Company has concluded that gross reporting is appropriate because it controls the services before they are transferred to the customers. The Company a) has the risk of identifying and hiring qualified consultants; b) has the discretion to select the consultants and establish the price and responsibilities for services to be provided; c) is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the service to the customer; and d) bears the risk for services provided that are not fully paid for by clients. The Company recognizes all reimbursements received from clients for "out-of-pocket" expenses as revenue and all such expenses as cost of services.

Commissions earned by the Company's sales professionals are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. The Company elected to apply the practical expedient to expense sales commissions as incurred as the expected amortization period is one year or less. Sales commissions are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company's clients are contractually obligated to pay the Company for all hours billed. The Company invoices most of its clients on a weekly basis or, in certain circumstances, on a bi-weekly or monthly basis, and its typical arrangement of payment is due within 30 days. To a much lesser extent, in certain circumstances, the Company also earns revenue if one of its consultants is hired by, or if the Company places an outside candidate with, its client. Conversion fees or permanent placement fees are recognized when one of the Company's professionals, or a candidate identified by the Company, accepts an offer of permanent employment from a client and all requisite terms of the agreement have been met. Such conversion fees or permanent placement fees are recognized when the performance obligation is considered complete, which the Company considers a) when the consultant or candidate accepts the position; b) the consultant or candidate has notified either RGP or their current employer of their decision; and c) the start date is within the Company's current quarter.

The Company's contracts generally have termination-for-convenience provisions and do not have termination penalties. While clients are contractually obligated to pay the Company for all hours billed, the Company does not have long-term agreements with its clients for the provision of services and the Company's clients may terminate engagements at any time. All costs of compensating the Company's professionals for services provided are the responsibility of the Company and are included in cost of services.

***Per Share Information***

The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share ("EPS"). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock include the assumed exercise of outstanding in-the-money stock options, assumed issuance of common stock under the Company's 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended ("ESPP"), assumed release of outstanding restricted stock awards ("RSAs"), restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs") using the treasury stock method. However, potentially dilutive shares of common stock are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect.

During the three months ended August 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss, and as a result potentially dilutive common shares issuable from the assumed exercise of stock options and the assumed release of shares of common stock under the outstanding ESPP, RSAs, RSUs, and PSUs awards were not included in the diluted shares used to calculate net loss per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table summarizes the calculation of net loss per common share for the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

---

|:---|:---|:---|

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Basic and diluted | $(0.07) | $(0.17) |
| Anti-dilutive shares not included above | 3235 | 2379 |

***Financial Instruments***

The fair value of the Company's financial instruments reflects the amounts that the Company estimates it will receive in connection with the sale of an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs.

The Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued expenses, and long-term debt, are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments or because their stated interest rates are indicative of market interest rates.

***Long-lived Assets***

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360, *Property, Plant, and Equipment*, the Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The impairment test is comprised of two steps. The first step compares the carrying amount of the asset to the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows. If the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows exceeds the carrying amount of the asset, no impairment is taken. If the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a second step is warranted and an impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the

------

<u>[Table of](#iaef327b2b66c430297e05f04afae5bbe_7)[Contents](#iaef327b2b66c430297e05f04afae5bbe_7)</u>

asset exceeds its fair value calculated using the present value of estimated net future cash flows. The Company did not record any impairment during the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024.

***Goodwill and Intangible Assets***

Goodwill is recorded at the time of an acquisition and is calculated as the difference between the aggregate consideration paid for an acquisition and the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not subject to amortization but the carrying value is tested for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of the fourth quarter, or more frequently if the Company believes indicators of impairment exist. There were no impairment indicators for the three months ended August 30, 2025 and as such, the Company did not perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. A goodwill impairment analysis was performed concurrently with the change in the Company's operating segments in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. See Note 5 – *Goodwill and Intangible Assets* for further information.

Impairment testing is conducted at the reporting unit level. Under ASC 350, *Intangibles - Goodwill and Other*, the qualitative assessment requires the consideration of factors such as recent market transactions, macroeconomic conditions, and changes in projected future cash flows or planned revenue or earnings of the reporting unit as potential indicators when determining the need for a quantitative assessment of impairment.

Under the quantitative analysis, the fair value of the reporting units is determined by using a market-based approach, an income-based approach or a combination thereof. The market-based approach estimates fair value by applying revenue and EBITDA multiples to each reporting unit's operating performance. The multiples are derived from guideline public companies with similar operating and investment characteristics to the Company's reporting units, and are evaluated and adjusted, if needed, based on specific characteristics of the reporting units relative to the selected guideline companies. The market-based approach requires the Company to make a series of assumptions that involve significant judgment, such as the selection of comparable companies and the evaluation of the multiples. The income-based approach estimates fair value based on estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital that reflects the relevant risks associated with each reporting unit and the time value of money. The income approach also requires a series of assumptions that involve significant judgment, such as revenue projections and Adjusted EBITDA margin projections, which are based on historical experience and internal forecasts about future performance.

While the Company believes that the assumptions underlying its quantitative assessment are reasonable, these assumptions could have a significant impact on whether a non-cash impairment charge is recognized and the magnitude of such charge. The results of an impairment analysis are as of a point in time. There is no assurance that the actual future earnings or cash flows of the reporting units will be consistent with the Company's projections.

The Company's identifiable intangible assets include customer contracts and relationships, and computer software, including internally-developed software. These assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over lives ranging from one to twelve years. For intangible assets subject to amortization, if the estimated undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the net book value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the amount by which the net book value exceeds the estimated fair value of assets. The Company reviewed its intangible assets and did not identify any impairment indicators during the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024.

See Note 5 – *Goodwill and Intangible Assets* for further information.

***Capitalized Hosting Arrangements***

The capitalized hosting arrangements costs are primarily related to the Company's implementation of a cloud-based enterprise resource planning system and talent acquisition and management system. Such costs include third party implementation costs and costs associated with internal resources directly involved in the implementation. Capitalized hosting arrangements are stated at historical cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of the expected term of the hosting arrangement, taking into consideration several other factors such as, but not limited to, options to extend the hosting arrangement or options to terminate the hosting arrangement. The amortization of capitalized implementation costs for hosting arrangements will commence when the systems are ready for their intended use and will be presented as operating expenses on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations consistent with the presentation for expensing the fees for the associated hosting arrangement.

As of August 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, the capitalized costs related to hosting arrangements, net of accumulated amortization, were $18.1 million and $19.0 million, respectively. These capitalized hosting arrangements are

included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company incurred $0.8 million and $0.1 million of amortization expense during the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024, respectively, related to these arrangements.

***Share Repurchases and Retirement of Treasury Shares***

The Company's stock repurchase programs authorize the Company to repurchase shares at the discretion of the Company's senior executives based on numerous factors, including, without limitation, share price and other market conditions, the Company's ongoing capital allocation planning, the levels of cash and debt balances, and other demands for cash. The Company records the shares repurchased as treasury stock based on the amount paid to repurchase its shares. Direct costs incurred to acquire treasury stock are treated like stock issue costs and added to the cost of the treasury stock.

The Company accounts for the retirement of treasury shares using the par-value method under which the cost of repurchased and retired treasury shares in excess of the par value is allocated between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. When the repurchase price is greater than the original issue proceeds, the excess is charged to retained earnings. The Company uses the weighted-average cost flow assumption to identify and assign the original issue proceeds to the cost of the repurchased and retired treasury shares. The Company believes that this allocation method is preferable because it more accurately reflects its paid-in capital balances by allocating the cost of the repurchased and retired treasury shares to paid-in capital in proportion to paid-in capital associated with the original issuance of those shares.

See Note 9 — *Stockholders' Equity* for further information on the repurchase of shares.

***Recently Issued Accounting Guidance***

In September 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"), which removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages (referred to as "project stages"). An entity will be required to start capitalizing software costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended (referred to as the "probable-to-complete recognition threshold"). ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of the annual reporting period. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets ("ASU 2025-05"). ASU 2025-05 provides a practical expedient that all entities can use when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under this practical expedient, an entity is allowed to assume that the current conditions it has applied in determining credit loss allowances for current accounts receivable and current contract assets remain unchanged for the remaining life of those assets. ASU 2025-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods in those years. Entities that elect the practical expedient and, if applicable, make the accounting policy election are required to apply the amendments prospectively. The Company currently expects to adopt this guidance in its fiscal year beginning May 31, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-05 on its financial statements and disclosures.

***Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance***

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance is intended to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this guidance in the fiscal year ending May 30, 2026 and expects to implement the related income tax disclosure requirements in its annual report on Form 10-K. The Company does not anticipate the adopted guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The guidance is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements for public entities primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit. This guidance was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this guidance in the fiscal year ending May 31, 2025. For additional information, refer to Note 12 – *Segment Information and Enterprise Reporting*.

**3. Revenues**

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections affects the recognition of trade accounts receivable, contract assets and contract liabilities.

Contract assets represent the Company's rights to consideration for completed performance under the contract (i.e., unbilled receivables), in which the Company has transferred control of the product or services before there is an unconditional right to payment. Contract assets were $25.1 million and $30.7 million as of August 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, respectively, which were included in trade accounts receivable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities represent deferred revenue when cash is received in advance of performance of services and are presented in other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities were $4.5 million and $4.3 million as of August 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, respectively. Revenue recognized during the three months ended August 30, 2025 that was included in deferred revenue as of May 31, 2025 was $1.8 million. Revenue recognized during the three months ended August 24, 2024 that was included in deferred revenue as of May 25, 2024 was $0.6 million.

**4. Acquisitions**

***Acquisition of Reference Point***

On July 1, 2024, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Reference Point MIPA") with Reference Point and the holder of all the outstanding membership interests of Reference Point, in which the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Reference Point. Reference Point is a strategy, management, and technology consulting firm serving the financial services sector across four areas of focus: Strategy & Management, Risk & Regulatory Compliance, Digital & Technology and Data & Analytics. The Company paid cash consideration of $23.2 million (net of $0.2 million cash acquired).

Results of operations of Reference Point are included within the Consulting Services operating segment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition. During the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024, the Company incurred $0.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in acquisition costs that were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In accordance with ASC 805 *Business Combinations*, the Company made an allocation of the purchase price for Reference Point based on the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the residual amount recorded as goodwill. The Company's purchase price allocation considered a number of factors, including the valuation of identifiable intangible assets. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded total intangible assets consisting of $14.4 million for customer relationships (to be amortized over 12 years), $0.7 million related to a non-compete agreement (to be amortized over 5 years) and $0.6 million for trade name (to be amortized over 1 year). The Company also recorded $6.9 million of goodwill, which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill is attributable primarily to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of Reference Point.

The following table summarizes the consideration for the acquisition of Reference Point and the amounts of the identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

<sup>(1)</sup> *The gross contractual amount of accounts receivable of $2.0 million was fully collected during fiscal 2025.*

The weighted-average useful life of all Reference Point's intangible assets is 11.3 years as of the date of acquisition.

**5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets** 

As described in Note 2 – *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, the Company performs its annual impairment test for goodwill impairment in the fourth quarter, unless indicators of impairment exist, at which point the Company may perform interim quantitative goodwill impairment analysis. There were no impairment indicators for the three months ended August 30, 2025 and as such, the Company did not perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

***First Quarter 2025 Interim Impairment Assessment***

During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, concurrent with the change in the Company's operating segments, which were aligned to the Company's reporting units and reportable segments, the Company allocated goodwill to each of its reporting units under the new organizational structure on a relative fair value basis. The Company estimated the fair values of the reporting units based on the income-based approach. The income-based approach was based on the present value of discounted cash flows of each reporting unit, using the Company's assumptions regarding revenue growth rates, forecasted gross profit margins, forecasted earnings and free cash flows, terminal period growth rates, and other economic and market trends. Additionally, the present value was based on applying a weighted average cost of capital, which considered long-term interest rates and cost of equity based on the reporting segment's risk profile. As a result of the analysis, a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $3.9 million was recorded for the excess in carrying value over fair value of the Europe & Asia Pacific segment.

In performing the goodwill impairment assessments, the Company considered the assumptions used in determining the estimated fair values of its reporting units to be reasonable and appropriate. However, the assumptions are complex and subjective, and additional adverse changes in a key assumption or a combination of key assumptions may significantly affect the Company's assessment of the fair value and goodwill impairment. These assumptions include, among other things, a failure to meet expected earnings or other financial plans; changes in the discount rate, the terminal growth rate or tax rates; or significant changes in industry or economic trends. If the assumptions noted above adversely change, negative macroeconomic conditions worsen or the Company's market capitalization decreases for a sustained period of time, the Company may be required to perform an additional impairment analysis that could result in additional impairment charges and materially adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

**7. Long-Term Debt** 

On July 2, 2025, the Company, Resources Connection LLC, as borrowers, and all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into a credit agreement with the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent, L/C issuer and the swingline lender (the "2025 Credit Facility"), and concurrently terminated the 2021 Credit Facility (as defined below). The 2025 Credit Facility provides for a secured revolving loan, available in an amount up to the lesser of $50.0 million and a borrowing base formula tied to eligible receivables, which includes a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit. The 2025 Credit Facility also includes an option to increase the amount of the revolving loan up to an additional $15.0 million. The 2025 Credit Facility will mature on November 30, 2029. The obligations under the 2025 Credit Facility are secured by substantially all assets of the Company, Resources Connection LLC and all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.

Entry into the 2025 Credit Facility was accounted for as a modification or extinguishment for certain lenders in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. Accordingly, debt issuance costs of $0.3 million will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the 2025 Credit Facility. Additionally, the Company recognized $0.1 million for the write-off of original debt issuance costs associated with the modification within interest expense during the three months ended August 30, 2025.

Borrowings under the 2025 Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum of either, at the Company's election (i) Term SOFR (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility) plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility), plus a margin of 0.25% to 1.50%, in either case, with the applicable margin depending

on the Company's Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility). The Company is also obligated to pay other customary facility fees for a credit facility of this size and type.

The 2025 Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict the Company's and its subsidiaries' ability to incur liens, incur indebtedness, make certain restricted payments, merge or consolidate and make dispositions of assets and financial covenants to maintain a certain consolidated total net leverage ratio and a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the 2025 Credit Facility, the lender may cease making loans, terminate the 2025 Credit Facility, and declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable. The 2025 Credit Facility specifies a number of events of default (some of which are subject to applicable grace or cure periods), including, among other things, non-payment defaults, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults and material judgment defaults.

Prior to July 2, 2025, the Company had a revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement dated November 12, 2021 by and among the Company and Resources Connection LLC, as borrowers, all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, the lenders that are party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent for the lenders (the "2021 Credit Facility"). The 2021 Credit Facility was originally set to mature on November 12, 2026; however it was terminated on July 2, 2025 in connection with entering into the 2025 Credit Facility.

As of August 30, 2025, the Company was compliant with all financial covenants under the 2025 Credit Facility. The Company had no debt outstanding under the 2025 Credit Facility as of August 30, 2025 and no debt outstanding under the 2021 Credit Facility as of May 31, 2025. However, the Company had $0.7 million and $1.0 million of outstanding letters of credit issued as of August 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, respectively, under the 2025 Credit Facility and the 2021 Credit Facility, respectively. As of August 30, 2025, there was up to $49.3 million of potential remaining capacity under the 2025 Credit Facility subject to the terms of the 2025 Credit Facility and related financial covenants.

On November 2, 2022, Resources Global Enterprise Consulting (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), as borrower, and the Company, as guarantor, entered into a RMB 13.4 million ($1.8 million based on the prevailing exchange rate on November 2, 2022) revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. (Beijing) as the lender (the "Beijing Revolver"). The Beijing Revolver bears interest at loan prime rate plus 0.80%. Interest incurred on borrowings will be payable monthly in arrears. As of August 30, 2025, the Company had no debt outstanding under the Beijing Revolver and RMB 13.4 million ($1.9 million based on the prevailing exchange rate on August 30, 2025) in available credit. The availability of proceeds under the Beijing Revolver is at the lender's absolute discretion and may be terminated at any time by the lender, with or without prior notice to the borrower.

**8. Income Taxes**

For the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024, the Company's income tax expense was $0.5 million, an effective tax rate of 24.7%, and $1.1 million, an effective tax rate of 22.7%, respectively. The income tax expense, driven primarily by an increase in the domestic and foreign valuation allowance in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and the non-deductible tax adjustment on goodwill impairment in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, measured against consolidated pretax losses resulted in the negative effective tax rate in both quarters.

Due to the sensitivity of the estimated annual effective tax rate to changes in estimated annual pretax results, the Company determined that the discrete method, whereby the year-to-date actual effective tax rate is applied, is the appropriate approach in its computation of the interim tax provision for the current fiscal year, as the use of the estimated annual effective tax rate would provide a distortive result.

The Company's total liability for unrecognized gross tax benefits, including accrued interest and penalties was $1.1 million as of both August 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, which, if ultimately recognized, would impact the effective tax rate in future periods. The unrecognized tax benefits are included in other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. None of the unrecognized tax benefits are considered short-term liabilities as the Company does not anticipate any cash payments to settle the liability within the next 12 months.

**9. Stockholders' Equity** 

*Stock Repurchase Program*

The Company's Board of Directors has previously approved two stock repurchase programs authorizing the repurchase, at the discretion of the Company's senior executives, of the Company's common stock for a designated

aggregate dollar limit. In July 2015, the first program was authorized for an aggregate dollar limit not to exceed $150 million, and in October 2024, the second program was authorized for an additional dollar limit not to exceed $50 million (collectively, the "Stock Repurchase Programs"). Subject to the aggregate dollar limits, the currently authorized Stock Repurchase Programs do not have an expiration date. Repurchases under the programs may take place in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and may be made pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan. No shares of the Company's common stock were purchased on the open market during the three months ended August 30, 2025. As of August 30, 2025, approximately $79.2 million remained available for future repurchases of the Company's common stock under the Stock Repurchase Programs. During the three months ended August 24, 2024, the Company repurchased 430,284 shares of its common stock on the open market at an average price of $11.62 per share, for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $5.0 million. No share repurchases were made during the three month ended August 30, 2025.

*Quarterly Dividend*

Subject to approval each quarter by the Company's Board of Directors, the Company pays a regular dividend. On July 30, 2025, the Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly dividend of $0.07 per share of the Company's common stock. The dividend was paid on September 26, 2025 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 29, 2025. As of August 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, $2.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, were accrued and recorded in other current liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets for dividends declared but not yet paid. Continuation of the quarterly dividend is at the discretion of the Board of Directors and depends upon the Company's financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business condition, contractual restrictions contained in the 2025 Credit Facility and other agreements, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

**10. Stock-Based Compensation Plans** 

***General***

The Company's stockholders approved the Resources Connection, Inc. 2020 Performance Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan") on October 22, 2020, which replaced and succeeded in its entirety the Resources Connection, Inc. 2014 Performance Incentive Plan (the "2014 Plan"). On October 17, 2024, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2020 Plan, which increased the maximum number of shares of the Company's common stock authorized for issuance under the 2020 Plan by 815,000 shares. Executive officers and certain employees, as well as non-employee directors of the Company and certain consultants and advisors are eligible to participate in the 2020 Plan. The maximum number of shares of the Company's common stock that may be issued or transferred pursuant to awards under the 2020 Plan equals: (1) 815,000 shares, plus (2) 1,797,440 (which represents the number of shares that were available for additional award grant purposes under the 2014 Plan immediately prior to the termination of the authority to grant new awards under the 2014 Plan as of October 22, 2020), plus (3) the number of any shares subject to stock options granted under the 2014 Plan or the Resources Connection, Inc. 2004 Performance Incentive Plan (together with the 2014 Plan, the "Prior Plans") and outstanding as of October 22, 2020 which expire, or for any reason are cancelled or terminated, after that date without being exercised, plus (4) the number of any shares subject to RSA and RSU awards granted under the Prior Plans that are outstanding and unvested as of October 22, 2020 which are forfeited, terminated, cancelled, or otherwise reacquired after that date without having become vested.

Awards under the 2020 Plan may include, but are not limited to, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance stock, stock units, stock bonuses and other forms of awards granted or denominated in shares of common stock or units of common stock, as well as certain cash bonus awards. Historically, the Company has granted RSA, RSUs and stock option awards under the 2020 Plan that typically vest in equal annual installments, and PSU awards under the 2020 Plan that vest upon the achievement of certain Company-wide performance targets at the end of the defined performance period. Stock option grants typically terminate ten years from the date of grant. Vesting periods for RSA, RSU and stock option awards range from three to four years. The performance period for the PSU awards is three years. As of August 30, 2025, there were 1,424,133 shares available for further award grants under the 2020 Plan (with outstanding PSUs counted for this purpose based on the target number of shares granted).

***Stock-Based Compensation Expense***

Stock-based compensation expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses was $2.3 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended August 30, 2025 and August 24, 2024, respectively. These amounts consisted of stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options, RSAs, RSU awards and PSU awards under the 2020 Plan and Prior Plans, employee stock purchases made via the ESPP, and stock units credited under the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on time-vesting equity awards ratably over the applicable vesting period based on the grant date fair value, net of estimated forfeitures. Expense related to the liability-classified awards reflects the change in fair value during the reporting period. The number of PSUs earned at the end of the performance period may equal, exceed or be less than the targeted number of shares depending on whether the performance criteria are met, surpassed or not met. During each reporting period, the Company uses the latest forecasted results to estimate the number of shares to be issued at the end of the performance period. Any resulting changes to stock compensation expense are adjusted in the period in which the change in estimates occur.

This discussion and analysis contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These statements relate to expectations concerning matters that are not historical facts. For example, statements discussing, among other things, expectations regarding our operating segments, expectations regarding the macroeconomic environment, expected costs and liabilities, business strategies, growth strategies and initiatives, future revenues and future performance, are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as "anticipates," "believes," "can," "continue," "could," "estimates," "expects," "forecast," "future," "intends," "may," "plans," "potential," "predicts," "remain," "should," "strategy," "target," or "will" or similar terms, and future or conditional tense verbs like "could," "may," "might," "should," "will" and "would," or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, such statements include statements regarding our growth, operational and strategic plans.

Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this report, these statements and all phases of our operations are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements and those of our industry to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: risks related to an economic downturn or deterioration of general macroeconomic conditions, potential adverse effects to our and our clients' liquidity and financial performances from bank failures or other events affecting financial institutions, the highly competitive nature of the market for professional services, risks related to the loss of a significant number of our consultants, or an inability to attract and retain new consultants, the possible impact on our business from the loss of the services of one or more key members of our senior management or key sales professionals, risks related to potential significant increases in wages or payroll-related costs, our ability to secure new projects from clients, our ability to achieve or maintain a suitable pay/bill ratio, our ability to compete effectively in the competitive bidding process, risks related to unfavorable provisions in our contracts which may permit our clients to, among other things, terminate the contracts partially or completely at any time prior to completion, our ability to realize the level of benefit that we expect from our restructuring initiatives, risks that our recent digital expansion and technology transformation efforts may not be successful, our ability to build an efficient support structure as our business continues to grow and transform, our ability to grow our business, manage our growth or sustain our current business, our ability to serve clients internationally, additional operational challenges from our international activities, possible disruption of our business from our past and future acquisitions, the possibility that our recent rebranding efforts may not be successful, our potential inability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, risks that our computer hardware and software and telecommunications systems are damaged, breached or interrupted, risks related to the failure to comply with data privacy laws and regulations and the adverse effect it may have on our reputation, results of operations or financial condition, our ability to comply with governmental, regulatory and legal requirements and company policies, the possible legal liability for damages resulting from the performance of projects by our consultants or for our clients' mistreatment of our personnel, risks arising from changes in applicable tax laws or adverse results in tax audits or interpretations, the possible adverse effect on our business model from the reclassification of our independent contractors by foreign tax and regulatory authorities, the possible difficulty for a third party to acquire us and resulting depression of our stock price, the operating and financial restrictions from our credit facility, risks related to the variable rate of interest in our credit facility, the possible impact of activist shareholders, the possibility that we are unable to or elect not to pay our quarterly dividend payment, and other factors and uncertainties as are identified in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2025, which was filed on July 28, 2025 ("Fiscal Year 2025 Form 10-K") and our other public filings made with the SEC (File No. 0-32113). Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business or operating results. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update the forward-looking statements in this filing to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, unless required by law to do so.

**Overview** 

Resources Global Professionals ("RGP," "we" or "us") is a global professional services firm based in Dallas, Texas (with offices worldwide) focused on delivering flexible and high-impact solutions to businesses through three integrated offerings, on-demand resourcing, strategic and execution consulting, and fully outsourcing services. As a trusted human capital partner for our clients, we provide CFOs and other C-Suite leaders with the flexibility to solve today's most pressing challenges. Our core capabilities span Enterprise Strategy & Operational Performance; Finance & Accounting; Digital, Technology & Data; and Governance, Risk & Compliance. We attract top-caliber professionals with in-demand skill sets who seek a workplace environment characterized by choice and control, collaboration and human connection. The trends in today's marketplace favor flexibility and agility as businesses confront transformation pressures and skilled labor shortages in the face of protracted economic uncertainty. Our engagements are designed to leverage a combination of bench and agile talent that are highly experienced to deliver practical solutions and more impactful results.

Facing a tough market in fiscal 2025, we made deliberate choices to adapt. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we reorganized our business into distinct business units to establish more targeted strategies, enhance execution focus and create more brand clarity in the market place and have since operated under the following business units: (i) On-Demand Talent, (ii) Consulting, (iii) Europe & Asia Pacific, (iv) Outsourced Services, and (v) Sitrick (disclosed as "All Other"). We evolved and streamlined our consulting practices, honing in on two areas where the need and opportunities are robust: CFO Advisory, serving CFOs' needs across people, process and technology, and Digital, Data and Cloud where we expanded our capabilities in cloud platform implementation, data strategy and analytics, AI adoption and readiness, and enterprise digital transformation, through strategic acquisitions. Furthermore, we made meaningful progress in fiscal 2025 on improving bill rates and reducing costs. Finally, we completed our technology modernization effort in our largest region, North America, which positions us for more operational efficiency as we head into fiscal 2026.

**Fiscal 2026 Strategic Focus Areas** 

Building upon the foundation we established in fiscal 2025, we continue to execute the following enterprise growth drivers in fiscal 2026:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expand cross-sell opportunities through our diversified services platform;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Optimize our high-growth solutions and evolve our talent strategy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Further leverage value-based pricing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Drive improvement in cost structure.

***Expand cross-sell opportunities through our diversified services platform*** – We offer a unique blend of services in On-Demand Talent, Consulting, and Outsourced Services, enabling high flexibility and high impact solutions for enterprises worldwide. This unique model is designed to meet clients' evolving needs in a disrupted business environment. Our consulting capability provides us with deeper visibility into our clients' transformation agendas to drive greater opportunities for our On-Demand execution capabilities, while our agile talent base within our On-Demand business provides greater financial flexibility and better skill set alignment for our Consulting business. In our Outsourced Services business, we are expanding Countsy's total addressable market beyond the start-up ecosystem to serve the finance, accounting and human resources needs surrounding spin-outs and carve-outs. In fiscal 2026, we will be focused on broadening client relationships by cross-selling across our diversified service offerings and introducing complementary solutions as client needs evolve. We believe this will enable us to deepen our partnerships with CFOs and business leaders, strengthen client retention, and increase wallet share while positioning the Company as a long-term, trusted partner for transformation and performance improvement.

***Optimize our high-growth solutions and evolve our talent strategy*** – In the volatile and rapidly shifting global economic environment, CFOs need partners who combine financial expertise with flexibility. We will maintain our commitment to building strong relationships with CFOs, who have historically been the primary buyers of our services, to support their organizations' transformation journeys with specialized expertise, high-value consulting, and integrated outsourced delivery. The core solutions we will continue to build, deepen and optimize are: enterprise resource planning ("ERP") and cloud finance systems modernization, financial planning and analysis enhancement, accounting close process optimization, SEC compliance, post acquisitions integration, enterprise risk management, data strategy and analytics, AI adoption and enterprise digital transformation. Concurrent to evolving our solutions to meet market demand, we will also

be keenly focused on evolving our talent strategy to modernize and refresh the skillset in our consultant base, both bench and agile, to serve our clients across On-Demand or Consulting engagements.

***Further leverage value-based pricing*** – Building on the progress we made in fiscal 2025, we will further advance our value-based pricing strategy to improve bill rates and pricing leverage, particularly in the Consulting business, as we pursue larger-scale, higher-value engagements that deliver measurable impact for clients.

***Drive improvement in cost structure*** – In the face of persistent macro-economic uncertainty and headwinds on client demand, we have prioritized reducing our cost structure and maintaining ongoing cost discipline to deliver improved profitability. We expect to leverage our newly implemented technology to achieve further operating efficiencies. In addition, we will continue to assess and optimize resource allocation across the business to improve profitability.

**Market Trends and Uncertainties**

Uncertain macroeconomic conditions including ambiguity around interest rates, softening labor markets, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, recent government and policy changes implemented in the United States, and tariff actions and uncertainties related to trade wars have created significant uncertainty in the global economy, volatility in the capital markets and recessionary pressures, which has adversely impacted our financial results. While we are not able to fully predict the potential impact, we continue to see caution in professional services spending within our client base. If these conditions or impacts persist or if a prolonged economic downturn or recession develops, it could result in a further decline in billable hours and negatively impact our bill rates which would adversely affect our financial results and operating cash flows.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 – *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of Part II of our Fiscal Year 2025 Form 10-K, and in Note 2 – *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies, or in the estimates and assumptions underlying those policies, from those described under the heading "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in Item 7 of Part II of our Fiscal Year 2025 Form 10-K.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures to assess our financial and operating performance that are not defined by or calculated in accordance with GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that (i) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Consolidated Statements of Operations; or (ii) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the comparable GAAP measure so calculated and presented.

Our primary non-GAAP financial measures are listed below and reflect how we evaluate our operating results:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Same-day constant currency revenue is adjusted for the following items:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Currency impact. In order to remove the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, we calculate same-day constant currency revenue, which represents the outcome that would have resulted had exchange rates in the current period been the same as those in effect in the comparable prior period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Business days impact. In order to remove the fluctuations caused by comparable periods having a different number of business days, we calculate same-day revenue as current period revenue (adjusted for currency impact) divided by the number of business days in the current period, multiplied by the number of business days in the comparable prior period. The number of business days in each respective period is provided in the "Number of Business Days" section in the table below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before amortization expense, depreciation expense, interest and income taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA excluding stock-based compensation expense, amortized ERP system costs, technology transformation costs, goodwill impairment, acquisition costs, gain on sale of assets, and restructuring costs. We also present herein Adjusted EBITDA at the segment level as a measure used to assess the performance of our segments. Segment Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain shared corporate administrative costs that are not practical to allocate. See Note 12 *– Segment Information and Enterprise Reporting* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue.

***Same-Day Constant Currency Revenue***

Same-day constant currency revenue assists management in evaluating revenue trends on a more comparable and consistent basis. We believe this measure also provides more clarity to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance and facilitates a comparison of such performance from period to period.

The following table presents a reconciliation of same-day constant currency revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, to revenue as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, by segment (in thousands, except number of business days).

Our non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or construed as substitutes for revenue, net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or financial condition prepared in accordance with GAAP for purposes of analyzing our revenue, profitability or liquidity. Further, a limitation of our non-GAAP financial measures is they exclude items detailed above

**Consolidated Operating Results – Three Months Ended August 30, 2025 Compared to Three Months Ended August 24, 2024**

***Revenue.*** Revenue decreased $16.7 million, or 12.2%, to $120.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 from $136.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. On a same-day constant currency basis, revenue decreased by $19.0 million, or 13.9%. Billable hours decreased 14.3% year-over-year, primarily due to the choppy demand environment, as clients delay transformation projects amid continued global economic uncertainty and a softening labor market. Partially offsetting this decrease, average bill rates increased 2.2% year over year, reflecting the progress in our ongoing value based pricing initiative and a gradual shift to higher-value projects.

***Cost of Services.*** Cost of services decreased $14.2 million, or 16.3%, to $72.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 from $86.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease in cost of services was primarily attributable to a 14.3% decline in billable hours as a result of reduced client spending as noted above, while the average pay rate remained steady during the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Cost of services as a percentage of revenue was 60.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 63.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The decreased percentage compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to an improved pay/bill ratio and lower consultant costs, including reductions in medical insurance, employer payroll taxes, paid time off and holiday pay. We continue to seek improvement in the overall pay/bill ratio and indirect cost leverage through strategic pricing, while offering competitive compensation and benefits to our consultants to attract and retain the best talent in the marketplace.

<u>[Table of](#iaef327b2b66c430297e05f04afae5bbe_7)[Contents](#iaef327b2b66c430297e05f04afae5bbe_7)</u>

The number of agile consultants on assignment during the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was 2,231 compared to 2,730 during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The average number of salaried consultants during the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was 418 compared to 482 during the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

***Selling, General and Administrative Expenses*.** Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") was $47.9 million, or 39.9% of revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $48.9 million, or 35.7% of revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The $1.0 million decrease in SG&A year-over-year was primarily driven by a $2.4 million decrease in employee compensation and benefits costs following our restructuring activities in fiscal 2025, a $1.9 million decrease in technology transformation costs primarily associated with our technology implementation during fiscal 2025, a $1.1 million decrease related to business support costs including travel and entertainment, a $0.8 million decrease in acquisition related costs, and a $0.4 million decrease in occupancy expenses. These decreases were partially offset by a $3.4 million gain on the sale of the Irvine office building recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 with no comparable activity occurring during the first quarter of fiscal 2026, a $0.9 million increase in professional services fees, a $0.7 million increase in stock-based compensation, and a $0.7 million increase in amortization of costs related to capitalized technology transformation costs. The remaining decrease was related to various general and overhead costs.

Management and administrative headcount was 667 at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and 765 at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

***Goodwill Impairment.*** No goodwill impairment was recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2026. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company completed a goodwill impairment analysis as part of its business segment reorganization. As a result of the analysis, a non-cash impairment charge of $3.9 million was recorded in the Europe & Asia Pacific segment during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. See Note 5 – *Goodwill and Intangible Assets* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.

***Income Taxes.*** Income tax expense was $0.5 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 24.7%, for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to an income tax expense of $1.1 million, or an effective tax rate of 22.7%, for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The income tax expense, driven primarily by an increase in the domestic and foreign valuation allowance in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and the non-deductible tax adjustment on goodwill impairment in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, measured against consolidated pretax losses resulted in the negative effective tax rate in both quarters.

Due to the sensitivity of the estimated annual effective tax rate to minor changes in estimated annual pretax results, the Company determined that the discrete method, whereby the year-to-date actual effective tax rate is applied, is the appropriate approach in its current computation of the interim tax provision, as the use of the estimated annual effective tax rate would provide a distortive result.

There can be no assurance that our effective tax rate will remain constant in the future because of factors such as changes in valuation allowance positions of our deferred tax assets and liabilities or changes in tax law or tax rates in jurisdictions that we operate in. Based upon future economic outlook and operating results of certain jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the current valuation allowance positions of certain jurisdictions could be adjusted within the next 12 months.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law. Among other changes, OBBBA makes permanent several expiring provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, restores favorable tax treatment of various business provisions, and modifies the international tax regime. The legislation has varying effective dates, with certain provisions effective retrospectively starting January 1, 2025. The tax effects of the enacted legislation are reflected in the period of enactment ended August 30, 2025, and there was no material impact on our effective tax rate as of August 30, 2025. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact of OBBBA on our consolidated financial statements.

***Comparability of Quarterly Results*.** Our quarterly results have fluctuated in the past and we believe they will continue to do so in the future. Certain factors that could affect our quarterly operating results are described in Part I, Item 1A of our Fiscal Year 2025 Form 10-K and our other public filings made with the SEC. Due to these and other factors, we believe quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations may not be meaningful indicators of future performance.

**Operating Results of Segments**

The Company's reportable segments are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On-Demand Talent – provides businesses with a go-to source for bringing in experts when they need them, serving predominately the office of the CFO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Consulting – drives transformation across people, processes and technology across domain areas including finance, technology and digital, risk and compliance and operational performance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Europe & Asia Pacific – is a geographically defined segment that offers both on-demand and consulting services (excluding the digital consulting business, which is included in our Consulting segment) to clients throughout Europe & Asia Pacific.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Outsourced Services – operating under the Countsy by RGP™ brand, this segment offers finance, accounting and human resource services provided to startups, spinouts and scale-up enterprises, utilizing a technology platform and fractional team.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sitrick – a crisis communications and public relations firm that provides corporate, financial, transactional and crisis communication and management services.

Each of these segments reports through separate segment managers to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, who are collectively designated as the CODMs for segment reporting purposes. The Company's reportable segments are comprised of On-Demand Talent, Consulting, Europe & Asia Pacific, and Outsourced Services. Sitrick does not individually meet the quantitative thresholds to qualify as a reportable segment. Therefore, Sitrick is disclosed under the "All Other" segment. Each of these segments represents a reporting unit for the purposes of assessing goodwill for impairment.

*<u>Revenue by Segment</u>*

***On-Demand Talent*** – Revenue in the On-Demand Talent segment declined by $8.0 million or 15.3%, to $44.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $52.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. On a same day currency basis, revenue decreased 16.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The decline was primarily due to lower demand for interim support amidst economic uncertainty as well as a softer and more stagnant labor market, with billable hours decreasing by 15.8% partially offset by a 0.4% (or 0.7% on a constant currency basis) increase in average bill rate.

***Consulting*** – Revenue in the Consulting segment declined by $11.4 million or 20.7%, to $43.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $55.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. On a same day currency basis, revenue decreased 21.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The decline was primarily due to a 28.4% decrease in billable hours, partially offset by a 11.1% (or 11.4% on a constant currency basis) increase in the average bill rate largely as a result of the Company's value-based pricing initiative. As we continue to evolve our consulting business to deliver higher value, larger and more complex work, we have improved our ability to command higher bill rates; however, the sales cycle associated with such deal opportunities tends to be more elongated. As a result, revenue in the Consulting segment could be lumpy in the near term as we continue to execute our strategy in his part of the business.

***Europe & Asia Pacific*** – Revenue in the Europe & Asia Pacific segment increased by $1.9 million or 10.6%, to $19.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $18.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. On a same-day constant currency basis, revenue increased 5.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to a 0.5% increase in billable hours and a 9.6% (or 4.6% on a constant currency basis) increase in the average bill rate. The increase in average bill rates was driven by the Company's value-based pricing initiative and a shift in geographic revenue mix towards Europe, where average bill rates are higher. Billable hours in Europe increased 21.0% year-over-year, primarily due to growing client demand and project expansions with key accounts, while billable hours in the Asia Pacific region decreased 2.6% primarily due to reduction in client spend and the competitive landscape in the region.

***Outsourced Services*** – Revenue in the Outsourced Services segment increased by $0.5 million or 5.3%, to $10.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $9.5 million the first quarter of fiscal 2025. On a same-day constant currency basis, revenue increased 3.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in billable hours of 2.1%, partially offset by a 2.2% decrease in the average bill rates.

***All Other*** – Revenue in the All Other segment increased by $0.3 million or 15.3%, to $2.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $2.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. On a same-day constant currency basis, revenue increased 13.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in billable hours and an average bill rate increase of 2.7%.

*<u>Adjusted EBITDA by Segment</u>*

***On-Demand Talent*** – The On-Demand Talent segment's Adjusted EBITDA increased by $1.9 million or 72.8%, to $4.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $2.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase is primarily attributed to a decrease in segment expenses of $3.4 million, partially offset by a decrease in gross profit of $1.6 million.

***Consulting*** – The Consulting segment's Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $2.7 million or 34.9%, to $5.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $7.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease in gross profit of $3.2 million, which was partially offset by a decrease in segment expenses of $0.5 million.

***Europe & Asia Pacific*** – The Europe & Asia Pacific segment's Adjusted EBITDA increased by $0.6 million or 268.7%, to $0.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase in gross profit of $0.7 million, partially offset by an increase in segment expenses of $0.1 million.

***Outsourced Services*** – The Outsourced Services segment's Adjusted EBITDA increased by $0.9 million, or 67.1% to $2.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $1.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase in gross profit of $1.0 million, partially offset by an increase in segment expenses of $0.1 million.

***All Other*** – The All Other segment's Adjusted EBITDA increased by $0.7 million or 139.2% to $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $(0.5) million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase is attributed to an increase in gross profit of $0.6 million and a decrease in segment expenses of $0.1 million.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operating activities, our senior secured revolving credit facility (as discussed further below) and historically, to a lesser extent, stock option exercises and ESPP purchases. While during the three months ended August 30, 2025, we did not generate positive cash flow from operations, we have historically generated positive cash flows from operations on an annual basis since inception. Our ability to generate positive cash flows from operations in the future will depend, at least in part, on global economic conditions and our ability to remain resilient during periods of deteriorating macroeconomic conditions and any economic downturns. As of August 30, 2025, we had $77.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, including $41.3 million held in international operations.

Prior to July 2, 2025, the Company had a revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement dated November 12, 2021 by the Company and Resources Connection LLC, as borrowers, and all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, with the lenders that are party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent for the lenders (the "2021 Credit Facility").

On July 2, 2025, the Company, Resources Connection LLC, as borrowers, and all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into a credit agreement with the lenders that are party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent, L/C issuer and swingline lender (the "2025 Credit Facility"), and concurrently terminated the 2021 Credit Facility. The 2025 Credit Facility provides for a secured revolving loan, available in an amount up to the lesser of $50.0 million and a borrowing base formula tied to eligible receivables, which includes a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit. The 2025 Credit Facility also includes an option to increase the amount of the revolving loan up to an additional $15.0 million. The 2025 Credit Facility will mature on November 30, 2029. The obligations under the 2025 Credit Facility are secured by substantially all assets of the Company, Resources Connection LLC and all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.

Borrowings under the 2025 Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum of either, at the Company's election (i) Term SOFR (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility) plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility), plus a margin of 0.25% to 1.50%, in either case, with the applicable margin depending on the Company's Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2025 Credit Facility). The Company is also obligated to pay other customary facility fees for a credit facility of this size and type.

The 2025 Credit Facility is available for working capital and general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions, dividend distribution and stock repurchases. Additional information regarding the 2025 Credit Facility is included in Note 7 – *Long-Term Debt* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

On November 2, 2022, Resources Global Enterprise Consulting (Beijing) Co., Ltd, (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company), as borrower, and the Company, as guarantor, entered into a RMB 13.4 million (USD $1.8 million based on the prevailing exchange rate on November 2, 2022) revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. (Beijing) as the lender (the "Beijing Revolver"). The Beijing Revolver bears interest at a loan prime rate plus 0.80%. Interest incurred on borrowings will be payable monthly in arrears. As of August 30, 2025, the Company had no debt outstanding under the Beijing Revolver.

In addition to cash needs for ongoing business operations, from time to time, we have strategic initiatives that could generate significant additional cash requirements. Such costs primarily include software licensing fees and other costs in areas including change management and training. We believe our current cash, ongoing cash flows from our operations and funding available under our 2025 Credit Facility will provide sufficient funds for these initiatives. As of August 30, 2025, we have non-cancellable purchase obligations totaling $8.5 million, which primarily consist of payments

pursuant to the licensing arrangements that we have entered into: $4.0 million due during fiscal 2026; $3.1 million due during fiscal 2027; 1.5 million due during fiscal 2028; and zero due thereafter.

In addition, we pay a regular quarterly dividend to our stockholders, subject to approval each quarter by our Board of Directors. Most recently, on September 26, 2025, we paid a dividend of $0.07 per share of our common stock to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 29, 2025. Continuation of the quarterly dividend is at the discretion of the Board of Directors and depends upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business condition, contractual restrictions contained in the 2025 Credit Facility and other agreements, and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

As described under "Market Trends and Uncertainties" above, uncertain macroeconomic conditions including ambiguity around interest rates, softening labor markets, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, recent government and policy changes implemented in the United States, and tariff actions and uncertainties related to trade wars have created significant uncertainty in the global economy, volatility in the capital markets and recessionary pressures, which have adversely impacted, and may continue to adversely impact, our financial results, operating cash flows and liquidity needs. If we are required to raise additional capital or incur additional indebtedness for our operations or to invest in our business, we can provide no assurances that we would be able to do so on acceptable terms or at all. Our ongoing operations and growth strategy may require us to continue to make investments in critical markets and further expand our internal technology and digital capabilities. In addition, we may consider making additional strategic acquisitions or initiating additional restructuring initiatives, which could require significant liquidity and adversely impact our financial results due to higher cost of borrowings. We believe that our current cash, ongoing cash flows from our operations and funding available under our 2025 Credit Facility will be adequate to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months.

Beyond the next 12 months, if we require additional capital resources to grow our business, either organically or through acquisitions, we may seek to sell additional equity securities, increase the use of our 2025 Credit Facility, expand the size of our 2025 Credit Facility or raise additional debt. In addition, if we decide to make additional share repurchases, we may fund these through existing cash balances or the use of our 2025 Credit Facility. The sale of additional equity securities or certain forms of debt financing could result in additional dilution to our stockholders. Our ability to secure additional financing in the future, if needed, will depend on several factors. These include our future profitability and the overall condition of the credit markets. Notwithstanding these considerations, we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs with cash flows from operations and financing arrangements.

Other than as described herein, there have been no material changes to our material cash requirements, including commitments for capital expenditures, described under the heading "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Item 7, Part II of our Fiscal Year 2025 Form 10-K.

***Operating Activities***

Operating activities for the three months ended August 30, 2025 used cash of $7.8 million compared to $0.3 million of cash used for the three months ended August 24, 2024. The cash used in operations for the three months ended August 30, 2025 included a net loss of $2.4 million, offset by non-cash adjustments of $5.3 million. The cash used in operations was primarily due to changes in operating assets and liabilities, which amounted to a net cash outflow of $10.8 million, driven by a $15.8 million decrease in accrued bonuses, salaries and related obligations due to the timing of our pay cycle and the payout of the annual incentive compensation, a $1.5 million decrease in accounts payable and other accrued expenses and a $0.6 million decrease in other liabilities. These decreases were offset by a $5.7 million decrease in trade accounts receivable, a $0.8 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a $0.6 million decrease in other assets, and a $0.2 million increase in prepaid income taxes.

In the three months ended August 24, 2024, cash used in operations was due to a net loss of $5.7 million, which was partially offset by non-cash adjustments of $6.0 million and net unfavorable changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.6 million. These net unfavorable changes in operating assets and liabilities were driven by a $4.3 million decrease in trade accounts receivable, a $0.4 million increase in accrued salaries and related obligations, mainly due to the timing of our pay cycle and the payout of the annual incentive compensation during the three months ended August 24, 2024, and a $1.0 million increase in other liabilities. Offsetting these unfavorable changes were a $1.9 million increase in other assets largely related to the investments in our technology implementation, a $1.3 million decrease in accounts payable and other accrued expenses, and a $1.0 million increase in prepaid income taxes.

***Investing Activities***

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million for the three months ended August 30, 2025 compared to $10.9 million for the three months ended August 24, 2024. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended August 30, 2025 was primarily related to $0.1 million of cash used for the development of internal-use software and acquisition of property and equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities was $10.9 million for the three months ended August 24, 2024 and was primarily related to $23.0 million of net cash used towards the acquisition of Reference Point, partially offset by $12.3 million of net proceeds from the sale of the Irvine office building.

***Financing Activities***

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $1.6 million for the three months ended August 30, 2025 compared to $7.7 million for the three months ended August 24, 2024. Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended August 30, 2025 consisted of cash dividend payments of $2.3 million, which were partially offset by $1.1 million in proceeds received from ESPP share purchases.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $7.7 million for the three months ended August 24, 2024 and consisted of $5.0 million to purchase 430,284 shares of common stock on the open market, and cash dividend payments of $4.7 million; these uses were partially offset by $2.0 million in proceeds received from ESPP share purchases.

**ITEM 3. *QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.*** 

***Interest Rate Risk.*** We are primarily exposed to market risks from fluctuations in interest rates and the effects of those fluctuations on the market values of our cash and cash equivalents and our borrowings under the 2025 Credit Facility that bear interest at a variable market rate.

As of August 30, 2025, we had approximately $77.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and no borrowings under our 2025 Credit Facility. The earnings on cash and cash equivalents are subject to changes in interest rates; however, assuming a constant balance available for investment, a 10% decline in interest rates would reduce our interest income but would not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

We may become exposed to interest rate risk related to fluctuations in the Term SOFR rate under our 2025 Credit Facility. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" above and Note 7 – *Long-Term Debt* in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion about the interest rate on our 2025 Credit Facility. As of August 30, 2025. we had no borrowing outstanding and $0.7 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under our 2025 Credit Facility.

***Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk.*** For the three months ended August 30, 2025, approximately 20.5% of our revenues were generated outside of the U.S. compared to approximately 18.3% of our revenues for the three months ended August 24, 2024. As a result, our operating results are subject to fluctuations in the exchange rates of foreign currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the monthly average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Thus, as the value of the U.S. dollar fluctuates relative to the currencies in our non-U.S.-based operations, our reported results may vary.

Assets and liabilities of our non-U.S.-based operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate effective at the end of each monthly reporting period. Approximately 46.7% of our cash and cash equivalents balances as of August 30, 2025 were denominated in U.S. dollars. The remaining amount of approximately 53.3% was comprised primarily of cash balances translated from Euros, Mexican Pesos, Canadian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, Indian Rupee, Japanese Yen, and British Pound Sterling, This compares to approximately 59.2% of our cash and cash equivalents balances as of May 31, 2025 that were denominated in U.S. dollars and approximately 40.8% that were comprised primarily of cash balances translated from Euros, Japanese Yen, Chinese Yuan, and Canadian Dollars. The difference resulting from the translation in each period of assets and liabilities of our non-U.S.-based operations is recorded as a component of stockholders' equity in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

Although we monitor our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations, we do not currently use financial hedges to mitigate risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations including in a limited number of circumstances when we may be asked to transact with our client in one currency but are obligated to pay our consultants in another currency. Our foreign entities typically transact with clients and consultants in their local currencies and generate enough operating cash

flows to fund their own operations. We believe our economic exposure to exchange rate fluctuations has not been material. However, we cannot provide assurance that exchange rate fluctuations will not adversely affect our financial results in the future.

**ITEM 4. *CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.*** 

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of August 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of August 30, 2025.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended August 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
