San Diego, CA, May 29, 2020 — Objective Capital Partners, a leading middle market valuation and investment banking firm, is pleased to announce it served as the financial advisor to RCM Technologies in connection with the adoption of their Shareholder Rights Plan. The Board of Directors has approved the adoption of a limited duration Stockholder Rights Plan, “The Rights Plan” and declared a dividend distribution of one right for each outstanding share of common stock. RCM Technologies is a premier provider of business and technology solutions designed to enhance and maximize the operational performance of its customers through the adaptation and deployment of advanced engineering, specialty healthcare and information technology services.
The Rights Plan is designed and intended to protect RCM and its stockholders from efforts to acquire or obtain control of RCM that the Board of Directors determines are not in the best interests of RCM and its stockholders, and to allow all stockholders to realize the long-term value of their investment in the Company. The Rights Plan will not interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination approved by the Board of Directors. Nor will it prevent the RCM Board of Directors from considering any offer that it considers to be in the best interest of its stockholders.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, recent market events, and other factors, the Board of Directors took notice that the closing price of the Company’s common stock has dropped by 59% year-to-date 2020 and by 69% as compared to its 52-week high. The Board of Directors believes RCM’s stock is significantly undervalued as the result of the current market environment, which creates the ideal scenario to implement a Rights Plan.
“Our intention is always to advise the Company and Board of Directors in an effort to achieve the most advantageous result for them and the shareholders. In these Rights Plan, or poison pill, scenarios we are creating an environment that mitigates the threat of unwanted acquisition”, said Channing Hamlet, Managing Director of the Objective Capital Partners Valuation Practice Group. “We are pleased to be able to assist great teams like RCM, especially during times of economic downturns like this when the risk of threat is heightened”.
Further details of the Rights Plan will be contained in a Current Report on Form 8-K and in a Registration Statement on Form 8-A that the Company will be filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These filings will be available on the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov.
