Current report

Scale Consulting solutions and continue evolving On-Demand Talent offerings to address the evolving needs of our clients– As business priorities continue to change, organizations are increasingly seeking support across finance, technology, data, AI and operational transformation initiatives. We continue to align and expand our Consulting and On-Demand Talent capabilities to support these priorities while leveraging the flexibility of our delivery model. Our core solutions include: enterprise resource planning ("ERP") and cloud finance systems modernization, financial planning and analysis enhancement, accounting close process optimization, technical accounting, post acquisitions integration, enterprise risk management, data strategy and analytics, and AI adoption and enterprise digital transformation. We also continue to expand and broaden the skillset of our consultant base to support areas of client demand, particularly in technology and AI-related disciplines.

Current report

Ramp the investments we have made to strengthen go-to-market execution —We made targeted investments beginning in the second half of fiscal 2026 to expand sales capacity and to enhance our consulting capabilities in areas including mergers and acquisitions, data analytics and AI. These investments are intended to strengthen our ability to support the evolving needs of our clients, broaden our service capabilities, and improve the effectiveness of our go-to-market efforts across our business.

Current report

Continue to simplify and optimize our business portfolio and cost structure – During fiscal 2026, we took action to simplify our operations and align our cost structure with market conditions. As we build on that progress in fiscal 2027, we remain focused on streamlining our operating model, aligning resources with our core service offerings and growth opportunities, and improving scalability across the organization. In May 2026, we completed the sale of the Sitrick practice following a review of our business portfolio. We will continue to improve the functionality, adoption and utilization of our recently implemented technology to drive further operating efficiencies.

Current report

Accelerate AI adoption to drive productivity internally and deliver greater value to our clients —During fiscal 2027, we are continuing to invest in AI capabilities that support our operations and client service offerings. Internally, we are continuing to leverage and implement new technology intended to improve productivity and accelerate delivery. Our focus is not only on AI adoption itself, but also on helping clients manage the broader business changes that AI creates. We are doing that through a combination of AI-specific offerings and our existing expertise in transformation, operations, talent, and governance.

Current report

The non-GAAP financial measures we use to evaluate our operating results are described below:

Current report

•Same-day constant currency revenue adjusts reported revenue for the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and differences in the number of business days between comparable periods:

Current report

Cost of services as a percentage of revenue was 62.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to 60.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The increase was primarily driven by lower utilization of salaried consultants, and to a lesser extent, a 0.2 percentage point increase in pay/bill ratio to 47.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 from 47.2% in the first fiscal quarter of 2026.

Current report

The year-over-year decline in both SG&A expense and headcount primarily reflects the impact of workforce reductions and other restructuring actions initiated in fiscal 2026 and is not fully indicative of the Company's fiscal 2027 targeted investments to expand sales capacity and strengthen its consulting capabilities. These investments are being implemented in phases, and as a result, the quarter reflects only a partial-period impact of the related incremental costs.

Current report

The Company's operating segments as of August 29, 2026 are as follows:

Current report

During fiscal 2026, the Company had a Sitrick operating segment that did not individually meet the quantitative thresholds to qualify as a reportable segment. Therefore, Sitrick was disclosed under the “All Other” segment in fiscal 2026. On April 7, 2026, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with Sitrick and Sitrick, LLC (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell 100% of the membership interests of Sitrick to the Buyer. The sale was completed on May 2, 2026. As a result of the sale of Sitrick, the "All Other" segment was eliminated as of May 30, 2026.

Current report

Consulting – Revenue in the Consulting segment declined by $11.3 million or 25.8% (26.2% on a constant currency basis), to $32.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to $43.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 due to a 27.1% decrease in billable hours, partially offset by a 2.2% (or 1.7% on a constant currency basis) increase in the average bill rate. The decline in billable hours was primarily due to lower project activity as clients remained cautious about committing to new projects, which led to longer decision cycles and delayed project starts. We continue to invest in consulting leadership and business development talent to strengthen our capabilities and go-to-market execution as client demand evolves.

Current report

All Other – Revenue in the All Other segment decreased by $2.3 million or 100.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 due to the sale of Sitrick and the elimination of the segment as of May 30, 2026.

Current report

On-Demand Talent– The On-Demand Talent segment’s Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $2.4 million or 53.5%, to $2.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $4.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $2.6 million decrease in gross profit, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in segment expenses primarily related to a reduction in management compensation reflecting the substantial completion of fiscal 2026 restructuring actions and only a partial-period impact of phased go-to-market investments.

Current report

Europe & Asia Pacific– The Europe & Asia Pacific segment’s Adjusted EBITDA decreased by approximately $1.0 million or 114.2%, to $(0.1) million for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to $0.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.3 million decrease in gross profit, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in segment expenses related to a reduction in management compensation.

Current report

All Other – The All Other segment's Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $0.2 million or 100.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The decline was attributable to the sale of Sitrick, which resulted in the elimination of the All Other segment as of May 30, 2026.

Previous report

Building upon the foundation we established in fiscal 2025, we are executing upon the following enterprise growth drivers in fiscal 2026:

Previous report

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

Previous report

•Further leverage value-based pricing to improve profitability.

Previous report

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 are focused on broadening client relationships by cross-selling across our diversified service offerings and introducing complementary solutions as client needs evolve. We believe this has enabled us to deepen our partnerships with CFOs and other C-suite business leaders, strengthen client retention, and increase wallet share while positioning the Company as a long-term, trusted partner for transformation and performance improvement.

Previous report

Scale our high-value Consulting solutions and refocus On-Demand offerings to address the evolving needs of our clients– In the volatile and rapidly shifting global economic environment, CFOs and business leaders need partners who combine expertise with flexibility. We continue to build strong relationships with C-suite leaders, to support their organizations’ transformation journeys with specialized on-demand expertise, high-value consulting, and integrated outsourced delivery. Through the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we have substantially completed the integration of our consulting assets including Reference Point into one cohesive consulting business unit. In addition, we have made focused investments to bring more depth in the consulting leadership team and to further expand our service capabilities in Mergers and Acquisitions, Data Analytics and AI. Our core solutions 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 have also been keenly focused on evolving our talent strategy to modernize and refresh the skillsets within our consultant base, both bench and agile, to serve our clients across On-Demand or Consulting engagements, particularly in the area of technology and AI fluency.

Previous report

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. During the second quarter of 2026, we began a comprehensive review of our operating model to redesign and streamline our cost structure, including simplification of business processes. In connection with this effort, we acted on certain workforce reductions affecting management and administrative roles in both the second and third quarters of this fiscal year, with an expected reduction ranging from $12.0 million to $14.0 million in our annual selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses on a run rate basis. We expect these transformation efforts to continue through the remainder of fiscal 2026, though the scope, timing, and impact of such actions may evolve as the review progresses. Furthermore, we expect to continue to leverage our newly implemented technology to achieve further operating efficiencies.

Previous report

Further leverage value-based pricing – Building on the progress we made in fiscal 2025, we are continuing to 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.

Previous report

In fiscal 2026, the Company began a transformation initiative to redesign and streamline its operating model to achieve a reduced cost structure, as well as integrate Reference Point's consulting capabilities into the existing consulting business to form a more cohesive consulting segment (the "2026 Transformation Initiative"). As part of this initiative, we engaged a third-party advisor to assist us in conducting a comprehensive review of our global operations. In October 2025, in connection with this effort, we began certain workforce reductions affecting management and administrative roles, aimed at improving efficiency, reducing costs and streamlining operations (the "October RIF"). As disclosed in the Company's Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 28, 2026, the Company began a second reduction in force under the Board approved 2026 Transformation Initiative in January 2026 (the "January RIF"). In addition to these reductions in force, the Company identified an opportunity for cost savings through exiting and subleasing certain office space. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.0 million in connection with the sublease.

Previous report

Restructuring costs were $4.4 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2026. We expect our transformation efforts to be substantially complete by the first quarter of fiscal 2027, though the scope, timing, and impact of such actions may evolve as the review progresses.

Previous report

Revenue decreased $66.1 million, or 16.0%, to $345.9 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2026 from $412.0 million for the nine months ended February 22, 2025. On a same-day constant currency basis, revenue for the nine months ended February 28, 2026 decreased by $71.3 million, or 17.3%, compared to the nine months ended February 22, 2025. Billable hours decreased by 16.4% reflecting a shift in demand away from traditional operational accounting skills and longer sales cycle for Consulting projects. The average bill rate remained flat compared to the nine months ended February 22, 2025.

Previous report

Cost of services as a percentage of revenue was 64.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 64.9% for the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The decreased percentage compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to lower pay bill ratio, improved consultant utilization and lower consultant benefit costs, including lower medical insurance and holiday pay.

Previous report

Cost of services decreased $44.4 million, or 17.0%, to $216.1 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2026 from $260.5 million for the nine months ended February 22, 2025. The decrease in cost of services was primarily attributable to a 16.4% decline in billable hours and a decrease of 1.8% in the average pay rate in the nine months ended February 28, 2026 compared to the nine months ended February 22, 2025.

Previous report

Cost of services as a percentage of revenue was 62.5% for the nine months ended February 28, 2026 compared to 63.2% for the nine months ended February 22, 2025. The decreased percentage was primarily driven by lower pay bill ratio, lower healthcare costs and holiday pay for the nine months ended February 28, 2026 compared to the nine months ended February 22, 2025.

Previous report

SG&A expenses were $148.2 million, or 42.8% of revenue, for the nine months ended February 28, 2026 compared to $151.4 million, or 36.7% of revenue, for the nine months ended February 22, 2025. The $3.2 million improvement in SG&A expenses year-over-year was primarily attributed to a $7.1 million decrease in employee compensation and benefits costs following the reduction in force in fiscal 2025 and most recently in the October RIF and the January RIF, a $5.5 million decrease in technology transformation costs primarily associated with the completion of our North America technology implementation during fiscal 2025, a $1.8 million decrease in costs associated with the internal use of consultants that supported our business through the North American technology implementation, a $1.7 million decrease in reimbursable employee expenses, a $1.0 million decrease in acquisition costs, a $1.0 million decrease in occupancy expenses, a $0.9 million decrease in variable employee compensation as a result of financial performance, a $0.8 decrease in severance costs, and a $1.4 million decrease related to other general and administrative costs due to our efforts to achieve an improved cost structure. These improvements were partially offset by increases of $5.9 million and $3.1 million in severance and stock-based compensation costs, respectively, associated with the separation of the Company's former CEO, a $3.4 million gain on the sale of the Irvine office building during fiscal 2025 with no comparable activity occurring during fiscal 2026, a $4.1 million increase in restructuring charges primarily related to the January RIF, and a $1.5 million increase in the amortization of costs associated with our technology transformation initiative.

Previous report

No goodwill impairment was recorded during the first, second or third quarters of fiscal 2026. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, due to the slow recovery in business performance within the Company’s On-Demand Talent and Consulting segments, the Company conducted a goodwill impairment analysis and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $42.0 million, which included $12.4 million for the On-Demand Talent segment and $29.6 million for the Consulting segment. Additionally, in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, in light of the decline in the Company's market capitalization, along with slower than expected recovery in business performance within the Company’s On-Demand Talent segment and Europe & Asia Pacific segment, the Company conducted a goodwill impairment analysis and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $79.5 million in the On-Demand Talent segment. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company completed a goodwill impairment assessment concurrent with its segment change and concluded that the carrying value of the Europe & Asia Pacific segment was in excess of its fair value. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $3.9 million. See Note 5 –Goodwill and Intangible Assets in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.

The Company continues to operate in a macroeconomic environment characterized by moderate but uneven global growth. While demand for professional services remains resilient, clients are increasingly selective, prioritizing projects with near-term, measurable returns on investment, with some focus on AI, digital transformation, and cost optimization, which has resulted in some variability in demand across service offerings. Additionally, heightened geopolitical tensions (including the recent Iran conflict), 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 caused economic disruption and uncertainty, which may impact client spending, project timing and overall demand for the Company's services. These factors may continue to negatively affect our financial results and operating cash flows.

Against this strategic backdrop, the Company continues to operate in a macroeconomic environment characterized by moderate but uneven global growth. While demand for professional services remains resilient, clients are increasingly selective, prioritizing projects with near-term, measurable returns, particularly in areas such as AI, digital transformation, and cost optimization. This selectivity has contributed to variability in demand across service offerings. Additionally, heightened geopolitical tensions, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, recent U.S. government and policy changes, and tariff actions and broader trade-related uncertainty have contributed to economic disruption and uncertainty, which may impact client spending, project timing and overall demand for the Company's services.

The income tax benefit in the quarter ended February 22, 2025 was primarily attributed to the Company’s consolidated pretax loss, reduced by the permanent disallowance of a portion of the goodwill impairment for tax purposes and the establishment of a valuation allowance on the Company’s UK entity.

Income tax expense was $1.9 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2026, reflecting an effective tax rate of 8.3%, compared to an income tax benefit of $12.3 million, or an effective tax rate of 9.4%, for the nine months ended February 22, 2025. The income tax expense in the nine months ended February 28, 2026 was primarily attributable to income tax expense from profitable foreign jurisdictions, while losses in certain domestic and foreign jurisdictions did not result in a tax benefit due to the existence of valuation allowances. The income tax benefit in the nine months ended February 22, 2025 was primarily attributed to the Company’s consolidated pretax loss, reduced by the permanent disallowance of a portion of the goodwill impairment for tax purposes and the establishment of a valuation allowance on the Company’s UK entity.
