Our Information Technology group delivered profitable growth in 2019 while making investments to position the business for long-term success. While we are disappointed with the performance of Engineering, we believe we have repositioned the business to begin to deliver sustainable growth in fiscal 2020 and beyond. In particular, our strategy of focusing on major utilities and OEMs that have one billion dollar plus capital spending budgets in growing markets is starting to bear fruit.”Kevin Miller, Chief Financial Officer of RCM Technologies, added, “We expect cash flow from operations to exceed $10 million in fiscal 2020. We believe we will materially deleverage the business in 2020, especially in the first half. We are already making good progress in the first quarter.”Conference Call

Supplemental Operating Results on a Non-GAAP Basis
(Unaudited)
(In Thousands)The following non-GAAP data, which adjusts for the categories of expenses described below, is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Our management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful information for investors, shareholders and other stakeholders of our Company in gauging our results of operations on an ongoing basis.  We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are performance measures and have provided a reconciliation between net income and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.  Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of performance.  In addition, neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA takes into account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes that can affect cash flows.  We do not intend the presentation of these non-GAAP measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.  These non-GAAP measures should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.The following unaudited table presents the Company’s GAAP net income measure and the corresponding adjustments used to calculate “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” for the thirteen and fifty-two week periods ended December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018.
