RCM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS
FOR THE THIRTEEN WEEK PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2012
 
Pennsauken, NJ – May 1, 2012 -- RCM Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: RCMT) today announced financial results for the thirteen week period ended March 31, 2012.
 
The Company announced revenues of $38.2 million for the thirteen week period ended March 31, 2012, decreased from $38.7 million for the thirteen week period ended April 2, 2011 (comparable prior year period).  The Company had operating income of $1.8 million for the thirteen week period ended March 31, 2012 as compared to $2.1 million for the comparable prior year period. Net income for the thirteen week period ended March 31, 2012 was $1.1 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $1.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period.
 
The Company announced that during the thirteen week period ended March 31, 2012, the Company repurchased 54,762 shares of its common stock under its existing common stock repurchase plan. The Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan of up $7.5 million of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock in February 2010, which plan has been extended through February 2013. Through April 30, 2012 the Company has purchased a total 680,646 shares under this plan for an aggregate of $3.2 million, an average price of $4.70 per share.
 
Leon Kopyt, Chairman and CEO of RCM, commented: “We are encouraged by our first quarter 2012 performance. The Engineering segment, despite procedural client delays in the release of projects to our Canadian Power Systems Group, experienced first quarter revenue growth of 2.8% as compared to the comparable prior year period. Excluding our Canadian Power Systems Group, the Engineering Segment posted revenue growth of 16.4% in the first quarter of 2012 as compared to the comparable prior year period. We believe the realization of revenue potential from recently executed Canadian Power Systems Group contracts is in a ramp-up phase, and we expect the new contracts to begin to contribute to revenue growth sometime during the second half of 2012.
 
The Information Technology segment continues to solidify its recovery progress that began in the fourth quarter of last year, as evidenced by sequential revenue growth of 9.1% in the first quarter of 2012 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. The Specialty Healthcare segment posted first quarter revenue growth of 7.3% as compared to the comparable prior year period.
 
We are excited about our future prospects for revenue growth in all three segments, and anticipate that we will begin to see measurable improvement as soon as the second half of 2012.”
