Dr. Michael J. Hartnett, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “RBC seems to be operating in an environment that is tailor-made for our products. Revenues in both A&D and industrial products grew at mid-teen levels while year on year gross margins expanded. Backlog increased and considerable debt was retired. We are thrilled to report the next six months are positioned to show an even better second half.”
Second Quarter Results
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 were $524.6 million, an increase of 15.2% from $455.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Excluding $2.0 million of net sales related to the PSC acquisition that closed on August 10, 2026 and is included within our Industrial segment, organic net sales increased by $67.3 million or 14.8%. Net sales for the Industrial segment increased 14.8%, 14.0% organically, while net sales for the Aerospace & Defense segment increased 15.8%.
Gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $239.0 million compared to $200.6 million for the same period last year. On an adjusted basis, gross margin was $239.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to $204.3 million for the same period last year. Gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was favorably impacted by $1.7 million of tariff refunds.
SG&A for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was $83.4 million, an increase of $6.0 million from $77.4 million for the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 15.9% for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to 17.0% for the same period last year.
Other operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 totaled $24.0 million compared to $25.4 million for the same period last year. For the second quarter of fiscal 2027, other operating expenses included $21.3 million of amortization of intangible assets, $1.1 of restructuring costs and $1.6 of other items.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing results of operations that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release also discloses non-GAAP results of operations that exclude certain items. These non-GAAP measures adjust for items that management believes are unusual, as well as other non-cash items including but not limited to depreciation, amortization, and equity-based incentive compensation. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations as these non-GAAP measures allow investors to better evaluate ongoing business performance. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures disclosed in this press release with the most comparable GAAP measures are included in the financial table attached to this press release.
3
Free Cash Flow Conversion
Free cash flow conversion measures our ability to convert operating profits into free cash flow and is calculated as free cash flow (cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures) divided by net income.
Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Operating Income
Adjusted gross margin excludes the impact of restructuring costs associated with the closing of a plant, acquisition related fair value adjustments to inventory or significant adjustments to existing manufacturing processes or product lines. Adjusted operating income excludes acquisition expenses (including the impact of acquisition-related fair value adjustments in connection with purchase), restructuring and other similar charges, and other non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses or gains. We believe that adjusted operating income is useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding items that are not indicative of our core operating performance or that may obscure trends useful in evaluating our continuing results of operations.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share
Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share (calculated on a diluted basis) exclude non-cash expenses for amortization related to acquired intangible assets other than internal-use software, stock-based compensation, amortization of deferred finance fees, acquisition expenses (including the impact of acquisition-related fair value adjustments in connection with purchase), restructuring and other similar charges, significant adjustments to existing manufacturing processes or product lines, gains or losses on divestitures, discontinued operations, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, and other non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses or gains, net of their income tax impact and other tax matters, which may include certain discrete items and reserve-related items. We believe that adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are useful in assessing our financial performance by excluding items that are not indicative of our core operating performance or that may obscure trends useful in evaluating our continuing results of operations.
Adjusted EBITDA
We use the term “Adjusted EBITDA” to describe net income adjusted for the items summarized in the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” table below. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses or gains. In view of our debt level, Adjusted EBITDA aids our investors in understanding our compliance with our debt covenants. Management and various investors use the ratio of total debt less cash to Adjusted EBITDA, or “net debt leverage,” as a measure of our financial strength and ability to incur incremental indebtedness when making investment decisions and evaluating us against peers. Lastly, management and various investors use the ratio of the change in Adjusted EBITDA divided by the change in net sales (referred to as “incremental margin” in the case of an increase in net sales or “decremental margin” in the case of a decrease in net sales) as an additional measure of our financial performance and some investors utilize it when making investment decisions and evaluating us against peers.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP, and our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from the definition used by others in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; or (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA adds back certain non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur or vary greatly, are difficult to predict, and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results. In addition, certain of these expenses can represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other corporate purposes. Further, although not included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA below, the measure may at times (i) include estimated cost savings and operating synergies related to operational changes ranging from acquisitions to dispositions to restructurings and/or (ii) exclude one-time transition expenditures that we anticipate we will need to incur to realize cost savings before such savings have occurred.
