Background

• Investment Philosophy Overview

– Buckley Capital Partners, LP is a long biased, value and special situation focused long biased equity fund – BCP’s discipline is to only invest in situations with asymmetric risk- reward return characteristics – The fund employs a fundamental approach that is research intensive and concentrated, focused primarily in small cap equities

• Extensive due diligence and bottom-up research into every

investment with periodic physical visits and close links with management

• Evaluate an investment idea as if buying the entire company, with a

focus on buying with a large margin of safety

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 5

Investment Philosophy

• Core Strategy

– Focus on transparent, predictable, underfollowed companies at very attractive valuations such as:

• Owner-operator managers where the CEO is the founder and

has the majority of his net worth in the business, thus properly incentivizing him

• Businesses with a long term track record of compounding at a

high growth rate

• Invest in businesses that are only a small portion of their

tangible addressable market (TAM) but could expand to a much larger portion of their market over time, providing a long runway for growth

• High barriers to entry and high returns on equity, with the

ability to profitably reinvest capital

– Limited dependence on debt financing – Free optionality from hidden assets

Investment Criteria

• Conviction comes from a profound understanding of

the management team’s incentives and capabilities which is reinforced by frequent physical visits

• Margin of safety: prefer great investments that are

simple and transparent

• Limited downside supported by high quality businesses

with consistent, predictable cash flow generation and manageable debt

– Cash and securities on balance sheet – Hidden tangible assets (e.g. stakes in other businesses/real estate) – High free cash flow yield

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 7

Investment Criteria

• Rapid growth in the intrinsic value of the

underlying business

• Negative sentiment and/or short-term events

can cause a fundamental disconnect between price and value

• Conviction is essential. Should be compelled to

buy more if the stock price fell with no change in the business fundamentals

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 8

Risk Management

• Wealth Preserving Portfolio Construction

– Little to no leverage – Invest in easy to understand, transparent businesses at great prices – Invest in companies: view investments as owning entire companies, not speculating on stock prices – Focus on asymmetries of returns: look for ‘fat pitch’ situations where probability-weighted risk-reward is heavily in our favor – Concentration: ideally comprised of 10-15 core long positions – Constantly reevaluate every investment: mistakes are inevitable, realizing them quickly and remaining emotionally unattached to securities is extremely important in protecting against capital loss

Biography Of Presenter

¡ ¡ ¡

It’s the Network That Delivers ¡ Stock: RLGT Headquarters: Bellevue, Washington Price: $2.97 52 Week Range: $2.95-$8.00

• Mkt. Cap.: $145m

Enterprise Value: $190m

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 14

• RLGT is an asset light, high ROIC business trading at 10x

earnings and 5.6x EBITDA

• Given its unlevered balance sheet and accretive M&A
• pportunities, we believe RLGT will double earnings over the

next 3 years

• The ~60% price decline is not due to fundamental reasons
• We believe RLGT’s earnings multiple should also be double

where it currently is, and therefore the shares should trade at ~$12/share in 3 years vs. the current $3 share price, a ~50% IRR

• RLGT recently issued a buyback; the last two times they

have issued a buyback the stock has at least doubled in the subsequent 12 months

Investment Thesis

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 15

• All stocks in the transportation sector have been down

significantly

• XPO’s acquisition of Conway (an asset based trucking

company) brought skepticism to whether other 3PL’s would switch to an asset based business model

• Comments from some asset-owned carriers of lower spot

pricing (the price at which transportation is transacted and delivered on now) in some sectors is a sign that the 3PL space is turning down and that the industry is soft.

• None of these have an impact on RLGT’s business

Why Are The Shares Mis-Priced?

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 16

• While all transportation stocks are down because of

expected lower future growth, RLGT’s future growth profile is incredibly strong

• Over the last decade, 3PL’s have consistently traded

in the range of ~12x EBITDA. We think this will continue and RLGT should re-price closer to this level over time

• While XPO changed their business strategy, RLGT

has no intention of doing the same

• Spot pricing does not have a significant impact on

RLGT’s business.

Why These Reasons Are Unimportant

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 17

Industry Association Data Does Not Suggest A Major Slowing In Shipments

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 18

• Market research suggests that the North American 3PL

industry accounts for about 10% of the $1.5 trillion value of goods and services shipped.

• Over the last 20 years, the U.S. 3PL market has grown at a

CAGR of ~9% annually.

• The cost of owning and running a private transportation fleet

is increasing, giving companies another reason to switch to 3PLs.

• The industry is highly fragmented, with the top ten U.S. 3PL

players accounting for only about one-third of the market.

• This suggests there is a very healthy growth path and

TAM for the leading companies such as RLGT.

Favorable 3PL Industry Dynamics

3PL Industry Dynamics: Healthy Growth & Highly Fragmented

Source: ¡Armstrong ¡& ¡Associates ¡

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 20

• A large portion of the 3PL market is composed of smaller

brokers/agents

• Smaller agents have been in the business since it deregulated in

the early 1980s and are now looking for an exit strategy as they hit retirement age

• The size of these independent brokers/agents is too small to

move the needle for the major billion dollar companies

• RLGT is a perfect size to acquire these smaller 3PL’s
• RLGT targets $2-3m EBITDA agents, only pays 4-5x TTM

EBITDA, with 50% down and additional cost synergies leading to high 20% ROIC’s

• Management believes they can add $20m-$30m of EBITDA

within the existing capital structure, nearly doubling the size of the business

Well Positioned To Take Advantage Of The Market Consolidation With A Highly Accretive Strategy

A History Of Additive Acquisitions

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 22

• Historically, RLGT has been positioned primarily as a US-based

Freight Forwarder, while Wheels is one of the largest Bi-Modal (truck and rail) brokerage operators in Canada

• Wheels gives RLGT three platforms to do acquisitions when it

previously only had one: U.S. Freight Forwarding, Canadian Freight Forwarding, and Truck Brokerage

• Wheels nearly doubled RLGT’s revenues and the scale benefits help

increase density in various trade lanes which provide better efficiency and pricing

• The combination of RLGT’s traditional, US-focused Freight

Forwarding with Wheels’ Truck Brokerage, intermodal capabilities, and Canadian footprint, gives RLGT significant cross-selling capabilities within the company’s network

• Recent comments from CEO Crain suggest that consolidation savings

and synergies from the Wheels integration into the legacy RLGT network are already occurring

Wheels Is A Game Changing Acquisition

A Broad & Well Diversified Customer Base

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 25

• CEO and founder, Bohn Crain, a highly skilled and impressive
• wner-operator, heads the company
• Owns ~20% of the stock and has an excellent history of

growth and execution

• Since FY06, RLGT’s revenues have grown at a CAGR of

~38% through the combination of both organic revenue growth and 16 acquisitions.

• EBITDA has grown at a ~55% rate due to the scale benefits

from RLGT’s non-asset based, networked business model

• Crain has done a phenomenal job building a high-quality,

diversified business over the last decade and we believe he is just getting started.

A Track Record Of Outstanding Growth & A Forecast Of Continued Healthy Future Growth

Radiant ¡grew ¡revenues ¡and ¡was ¡profitable ¡even ¡in ¡2009 ¡

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 27

• We believe revenue growth should average about

20%, with the combination of organic growth of 6%-10% and continued bolt-on and strategic acquisitions

• RLGT should be able to double its margins over

the next 5-10 years as a result of operating leverage. This dynamic alone should lead to 5-10% annualized EBITDA growth

• We think RLGT’s EBITDA growth rate will slow
• ver the next five years, but still be in the 25-35%

range. ¡

Future Profit Growth of +25% Likely In The Next 3-5 Years – A Growth Compounder

Buckley Capital Partners, LP PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 28

RLGT is attractive on an absolute basis as well as relative to both public and private market comparables

• Radiant should do roughly $0.30 in EPS next year and is therefore

currently trading at ~10x forward earnings.

• CHRW and EXPD have averaged trading at 12x EBITDA for the past

decade, while ECHO, a higher growth peer more similar to RLGT has traded at an average of 15x EBITDA. Thus a valuation of 12x EBITDA seems appropriate.

• Private acquisition multiples for 3PL companies have ranged between

6-12x EBITDA. RLGT’s size and growth characteristics would place it in the higher range, giving it a 10-12x EBITDA multiple.

• We expect EBITDA will be ~$60m in three years. At that point, we

estimate net debt will be ~$120m, or a market cap of ~$600m or $12.20 per share. From current share prices, this is a ~50% IRR.

Attractive Valuation Provides Significant Upside Potential
