Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Hub Group (HUBG) filed its Q3 2025 10‑Q, showing softer sales but stronger margins. Operating revenue was $934.5 million, down 5% year over year, while operating income rose to $39.4 million from $32.1 million as purchased transportation and warehousing costs fell. Net income was $28.9 million and diluted EPS was $0.47 versus $0.39 a year ago.

ITS revenue was $561.5 million and Logistics revenue was $402.4 million; segment operating income improved to $15.9 million (ITS) and $23.6 million (Logistics). Cash and equivalents were $119.7 million; year‑to‑date cash from operations was $159.6 million. The company closed the $53.4 million Marten Intermodal container asset purchase and a $1.3 million SITH acquisition, and continued integrating its 2024 EASO investment with $28.6 million deferred consideration and $26.8 million restricted cash on the balance sheet.

Hub entered a new $450 million five‑year credit agreement with $449.3 million available at quarter‑end and declared three quarterly dividends of $0.125 per share in 2025. Year‑to‑date, it repurchased 330,441 shares for $13.8 million.

Insights

Revenue dipped, margins improved; balance sheet flexibility intact.

Hub Group reported Q3 operating revenue of $934.5M (down 5%), but operating income rose to $39.4M as purchased transportation and warehousing fell to 73.2% of revenue. Diluted EPS improved to $0.47, reflecting better mix and cost controls in both ITS and Logistics.

Year‑to‑date cash from operations was $159.6M, supporting modest capital spending and dividends. The company closed the Marten Intermodal asset purchase for $53.4M and a small SITH deal, while the 2024 EASO investment continues with deferred consideration of $28.6M and restricted cash of $26.8M.

Liquidity appears ample: a new five‑year $450M credit agreement showed $449.3M available at Sep 30, 2025. Actual activity will depend on freight demand and execution on cost initiatives. Subsequent filings may provide additional color on EASO purchase accounting finalization.

HUB GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

NOTE 1. Interim Financial Statements

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hub Group, Inc. (the “Company,” “Hub,” “we,” “us” or “our”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The financial statements reflect, in our opinion, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present our financial position as of September 30, 2025 and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 10-K”). Results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year due partially to seasonality.

In October 2023, the Board authorized the purchase of up to $250 million of our Class A Common Stock pursuant to a share repurchase program. During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we did not purchase any shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we purchased 330,441 shares for approximately $13.8 million.

On March 5, 2025, May 13, 2025, and August 29, 2025 the Board declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.125 per share on the Company’s Class A and Class B common stock. The dividends were paid on March 28, 2025 to stockholders of record as of March 18, 2025, June 30, 2025 to stockholders of record as of June 23, 2025, and September 24, 2025 to stockholders of record as of September 12, 2025. The declaration and payment of the quarterly cash dividends were subject to the approval of the Board at its sole discretion and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

The Company routinely evaluates the useful life attributed to its assets. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company determined that the useful lives of certain transportation equipment should be increased to 25 years based on historical experience related to the use of this equipment and our expectation of its future usability. The Company accounted for these items as a change in estimate that was applied prospectively, effective as of July 1, 2025. During the first quarter, the Company determined that the useful lives of certain computer software should be increased to 7 or 10 years based on historical experience related to the use of this software and our expectation of its future usability. The Company accounted for these items as a change in estimate that was applied prospectively, effective as of January 1, 2025. These changes in estimate resulted in a reduction of depreciation expense of $2.1 million and $4.5 million, an increase to net income of $1.6 million and $3.4 million, and an increase in both basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.03 and $0.06, during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

NOTE 2. Earnings Per Share

The Company has two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B, both of which have identical rights to dividends and share equally in the earnings of the Company. Accordingly, the Company presents a single calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for both classes in accordance with the guidance in ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share”.

NOTE 3. Acquisitions

Marten Intermodal Transaction

On September 30, 2025, we closed on the transaction to acquire certain assets of Marten Transport, Ltd. Intermodal (“Marten Intermodal”), a division of Marten Transport, Ltd., which provides temperature-controlled intermodal service to a diversified group of approximately 100 shippers in the food and beverage segments.

The acquisition added 1,200 refrigerated containers and continues our strategic investment of capital within the core business to support growing volumes and improved network fluidity.

The total $53.4 million asset purchase was funded through cash on hand and equipment notes secured by the underlying container and refrigerated assets. The assets acquired are being depreciated or amortized over their respectful useful lives up to 25 years.

The Marten Intermodal transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-50, as the acquisition did not meet the definition of a business under ASC 805 "Business Combinations".

SITH Transaction

On September 8, 2025, we completed the acquisition of the West-Coast final mile provider SITH, LLC ("SITH"). The total purchase consideration was approximately $1.3 million, funded with cash on hand.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price resulted in $1.2 million of goodwill. The results of operations of the acquired business have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The acquisition is not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and therefore, pro forma financial information has not been presented.

EASO Transaction

On October 23, 2024, we entered into an investment agreement with Corporación Interamericana de Logística, S.A. de C.V. and certain associated entities (commonly known as “EASO”), a family-led, intermodal and trucking logistics provider headquartered in Mexico City to acquire a controlling interest in EASO. EASO specializes in intermodal, dedicated trucking, truckload and freight brokerage services. Through a network of terminals across Mexico, EASO serves the entire Mexican domestic market and main logistics hubs in the U.S. using its intermodal cross-border network.

9


 

The estimated fair value of total consideration transferred was approximately $55 million for a 51% equity stake in EASO. The financial results of EASO, since the date of acquisition, are included in our ITS segment.

The EASO investment transaction expanded our intermodal and transportation solutions business. With a substantial increase in cross-border trade activity from nearshoring, this transaction improves our ability to provide a cross-border service offering and provides increased intermodal conversion opportunities.

The initial accounting for the EASO transaction is incomplete as we, with the support of our valuation specialist, are in the process of finalizing the fair market value calculations of the property, plant, and equipment, customer relationships, and trade name. In addition, we are in the preparation and review process of the valuation of certain acquired assets and liabilities used in determining the purchase accounting. Finally, certain post-closing activities outlined in the investment agreement remain incomplete. As a result, the amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements related to the EASO transaction are preliminary and the measurement period remains open.

The EASO transaction was accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations.” In connection with the transaction, we performed a consolidation analysis concluding that we control all EASO entities through either a majority voting interest or as the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. As a result, 100% of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and non-controlling interests were recorded in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at their preliminary estimated fair values as of October 23, 2024, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized in the EASO transaction was primarily attributable to potential expansion and future development of the business. This goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Total consideration transferred includes $28.4 million of deferred cash consideration, all or a portion of which may be paid at least two years after the closing date of the transaction. As a result of the restrictions on this deferred consideration in the investment agreement, we have classified the associated cash as Restricted Cash in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of September 30, 2025, the balances of Deferred Consideration and Restricted Cash were $28.6 million and $26.8 million, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Total consideration transferred includes $3.7 million of contingent consideration related to certain operating tax balances existing prior to the transaction for which we have agreed to reimburse the full amount of cash collected within two years of the closing date of the transaction. The estimated fair value of such contingent consideration is based on estimated collectability of such operating tax balances within the agreed time frame.

Our investment in one of the EASO entities, Corporación Interamericana de Logística, S.A. de C.V. (“CIL”), qualifies as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). Based on the rights provided in the investment and shareholder agreements, as well as the design of the VIE, our majority exposure to the variability associated with economic performance of the VIE, and the relationship and significance of activities of the VIE to us, we determined that we are most closely associated with the VIE and are therefore considered the primary beneficiary.

During a period from 2030 to 2032, Hub will have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase an amount of issued and outstanding shares of EASO such that, upon exercising this call right, we would own 80% of all of the issued and outstanding shares of EASO at a purchase price based on earnings multiples as defined in the shareholders agreement. We evaluated this call right and concluded that it does not meet the definition of a derivative, resulting in the non-controlling interest and embedded call right being classified as permanent equity.

The changes noted as "Acquisitions" in the above table refer to preliminary purchase accounting adjustments related primarily to the EASO acquisition recorded during the nine month period ending September 30, 2025, primarily related to the increase in the valuation of intangibles for $5.9 million and the increase in valuation of property, plant, and equipment for $6.0 million, partially offset by an increase in deferred tax obligation of $11.6 million. The increase to goodwill in the Logistics segment is related to the SITH acquisition.

Our CODM uses operating income by segment to make decisions over the allocation of capital and resources and assess the performance of our segments.

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions. Our ITS segment offers high service, nationwide door-to-door intermodal transportation, providing value, visibility and reliability in both transcontinental and local lanes by combining rail transportation with local trucking. This segment includes our trucking operations which provides our customers with local pickup and delivery (referred to as “drayage”) as well as high service local and regional trucking transportation using equipment dedicated to their needs. We arrange for the movement of our customers’ freight in one of our approximately 51,000 containers. As of September 30, 2025, we operated trucking terminals at 32 locations throughout the United States and Mexico, with locations in many large metropolitan areas. We also contract for services with independent owner-operators who supply their own equipment and operate under our regulatory authority. These assets and contractual services are used to support drayage for our intermodal service offering and to serve our customers who require high service local and regional trucking transportation using equipment dedicated to their needs. We contract with railroads to provide transportation for the long-haul portion of the shipment between rail terminals. Drayage between origin or destination and rail terminals are provided by our own trucking operations and third parties with whom we contract. Our dedicated service operation offers fleets of equipment and drivers to each customer on a contract basis, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations. As of September 30, 2025, our trucking transportation operation consisted of approximately 2,300 tractors, 3,100 employee drivers and 4,700 trailers. We also contract for services with approximately 500 independent owner-operators.

Logistics. Our Logistics segment offers a wide range of services including transportation management, freight brokerage services, shipment optimization, load consolidation, mode selection, carrier management, load planning and execution, warehousing, fulfillment, cross-docking, consolidation services and final mile delivery. These services include a full range of trucking transportation services, including dry van, expedited, less-than-truckload, refrigerated and flatbed, all of which is provided by third party carriers with whom we contract. We also leverage proprietary technology along with collaborative relationships with third party service providers to deliver cost savings and performance-enhancing supply chain services to our clients. Our transportation management offering also serves as a source of volume for our ITS segment. Many of the customers for these solutions are consumer goods companies who sell into the retail channel. Our final mile delivery offering provides residential final mile delivery and installation of appliances and big and bulky goods. Final mile operates through a network of independent service providers in company, customer and third-party facilities throughout the continental United States. Our business operates or has access to approximately 7 million square feet of warehousing and cross-dock space across North America, to which our customers ship their goods to be stored and distributed to destinations including residences, retail stores and other commercial locations. These services offer our customers shipment visibility, transportation cost savings, high service and compliance with retailers’ increasingly stringent supply chain requirements. Logistics also includes our brokerage business which provides third-party truckload, less-than-truckload (“LTL”), flatbed and temperature-controlled needs.

NOTE 5. Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, the fair value of the Company's fixed-rate borrowings was $2.2 million more than the historical carrying value of $255.0 million. As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of the Company's fixed-rate borrowings approximated the fair value of $264.4 million. The fair value of the fixed-rate borrowings was estimated using an income approach based on current interest rates available to the Company for borrowings on similar terms and maturities.

We consider as cash equivalents all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our cash and temporary investments were with high quality financial institutions in demand deposit accounts, savings accounts, checking accounts and money market accounts.

Restricted Cash of $26.8 million and $28.7 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, includes cash held in both deposit accounts and escrow accounts that are not subject to remeasurement on a recurring basis.

Restricted investments included $20.7 million and $21.6 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, of mutual funds and other security investments which are reported at fair value. These investments relate to our non-qualified deferred compensation plan and insurance deposits.

Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on valuation techniques which consider prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. These valuation methods are based on either quoted market prices (Level 1) or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2), or unobservable inputs (Level 3). Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and mutual funds and related liabilities are defined as “Level 1,” while long-term debt is defined as “Level 2” of the fair value hierarchy in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification.

 

NOTE 6. Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements

On June 20, 2025, we entered into a five-year, $450 million credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). This Credit Agreement replaces the credit agreement dated as of February 24, 2022 (the “2022 Credit Agreement”). As part of this transition, all outstanding standby letters of credit issued under the 2022 Credit Agreement were transferred to the new Credit Agreement. We did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the 2022 Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) the secured overnight financing rate (published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, “SOFR”), plus a specified margin based on the term of such borrowing, plus a specified margin based upon our total net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (the "Total Net Leverage Ratio"), or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the administrative agent's prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% and one-month SOFR) plus a specified margin based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio. The specified margin for SOFR loans varies from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points per annum. The specified margin for base rate loans varies from 0.0 to 75.0 basis points per annum. We must also pay (1) a commitment fee ranging from 10.0 to 25.0 basis points per annum (based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio) on the aggregate unused commitments and (2) a letter of credit fee ranging from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points per annum (based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio) on the undrawn amount of letters of credit. While any payment default exists, we must pay interest at a default rate equal to the applicable interest rate described above plus 2.0% per annum.

We have standby letters of credit that expire in 2026. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, our letters of credit were $0.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had no borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the 2022 Credit Agreement, and our unused and available borrowings were $449.3 million and $349.2 million, respectively. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

We have entered into various Equipment Notes (“Notes”) for the purchase of tractors, trailers, containers and refrigeration units. The Notes are secured by the underlying equipment financed in the agreements.

NOTE 7. Legal Matters

The Company is involved in certain claims, commercial disputes and pending litigation arising from the normal conduct of business, including putative class-action lawsuits involving employment related claims. Based on management's present knowledge, management does not believe that any potential unrecorded loss contingencies arising from these pending matters are likely to have a material adverse effect on our overall financial position, operating results, or cash flows after taking into account any existing accruals for settlements or losses determined to be probable and estimable. However, actual outcomes could be material to the Company's financial position, operating results, or cash flows for any particular period.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

We are a leading supply chain solutions provider in North America that offers comprehensive transportation and logistics management services focused on reliability, visibility and value for our customers. Our service offerings include a full range of freight transportation and logistics services, some of which are provided by assets we own and operate, and some of which are provided by third parties with whom we contract. Our services include intermodal, truckload, less-than-truckload, flatbed, temperature-controlled, dedicated and regional trucking. Other services include full outsource logistics solutions, transportation management services, freight consolidation, warehousing and fulfillment, final mile delivery, parcel and international services.

We service a large and diversified customer base in a broad range of industries, including retail, consumer products and durable goods. We believe our strategy to offer multi-modal supply chain management solutions serves to strengthen and deepen our relationships with our customers and allows us to provide a more cost effective and higher service solution.

We concluded we have two reportable segments, Intermodal and Transportation Solutions (“ITS”) and Logistics, which are based primarily on the services each segment provides.

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions. Our ITS segment offers high service, nationwide door-to-door intermodal transportation, providing value, visibility and reliability in both transcontinental and local lanes by combining rail transportation with local trucking. This segment includes our trucking operations which provides our customers with local pickup and delivery as well as high service local and regional trucking transportation using equipment dedicated to their needs. In the first nine months of 2025, approximately 83% of our drayage services was provided by our own fleet. We arrange for the movement of our customers’ freight in one of our approximately 51,000 containers. We contract with railroads to provide transportation for the long-haul portion of the shipment between rail terminals. Drayage between origin or destination and rail terminals are provided by our own trucking operations and third parties with whom we contract. Our dedicated service operation offers fleets of equipment and drivers to each customer on a contract basis, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations. As of September 30, 2025, our trucking transportation operation consisted of approximately 2,300 tractors, 3,100 employee drivers and 4,700 trailers. We also contract for services with approximately 500 independent owner-operators. These assets and contractual services are used to support drayage for our intermodal service offering and to serve our customers who require high service local and regional trucking transportation using equipment dedicated to their needs. Our dedicated service operation offers fleets of equipment and drivers to each customer on a contract basis, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations.

Logistics. Our Logistics segment offers a wide range of non-asset-based services including transportation management, freight brokerage services, shipment optimization, load consolidation, mode selection, carrier management, load planning and execution, cross-docking, consolidation and fulfillment services and final mile delivery. Logistics includes our brokerage business which consists of a full range of trucking transportation services, including dry van, expedited, less-than-truckload (“LTL”), refrigerated and flatbed, all of which is provided by third-party carriers with whom we contract. We leverage proprietary technology along with collaborative relationships with third-party service providers to deliver cost savings and performance-enhancing supply chain services to our clients. Our transportation management offering also serves as a source of volume for our ITS segment. Many of the customers for these solutions are consumer goods companies who sell into the retail channel. Our final mile delivery offering provides residential final mile delivery and installation of appliances and big and bulky goods. Final mile operates through a network of independent service providers in company, customer and third-party facilities throughout the continental United States. Our business operates or has access to approximately 7 million square feet of warehousing and cross-dock space across North America, to which our customers ship their goods to be stored and distributed to destinations including residences, retail stores and other commercial locations. These services offer our customers shipment visibility, transportation cost savings, high service and compliance with retailers’ increasingly stringent supply chain requirements.

18


 

We are focused on several margin enhancement projects including network optimization, matching of inbound and outbound loads, reducing empty miles, improving our recovery of accessorial costs, increasing our driver and asset utilization, reducing repositioning costs, providing holistic solutions and improving low profit freight. Hub’s top 50 customers represent approximately 68% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, while one customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenue in both segments for both the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. We use various performance indicators to manage our business. We closely monitor profit levels for our customers. We also evaluate on-time performance, customer service, cost per load and daily sales outstanding by customer account. Vendor cost changes and vendor service levels are also monitored closely.

The following table includes the one customer that represented 10% or more of our revenue by segment for the nine months ending September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively:

Uncertainties and risks to our outlook include inflation, increased healthcare costs, a slowdown in consumer spending (driven by, among other factors, tariffs, inflation, increases in interest rates, an economic recession and geopolitical concerns), a shift by consumers to spending on services at the expense of goods, an increase of retailers’ inventory levels, the ability of customers to pay our accounts receivable, a significant increase in transportation supply in the marketplace, aggressive pricing actions by our competitors and any inability to pass cost increases, such as transportation and warehouse costs, through to our customers, economic factors such as the impact of potentially increasing tariffs between trading partners, all of which could have a materially negative impact on our revenue, profitability and cash flow in 2025. Exiting of truckload capacity, retail inventory levels declining leading to restocking demand, a return of typical shipping peak season demands and a stronger used tractor market could have a materially positive impact on our revenue, profitability and cash flows in 2025.

Total consolidated operating revenue decreased 5% to $934 million in 2025 from $987 million in 2024.

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions (“ITS”) revenue remained relatively consistent, increasing slightly to $561 million primarily due to steady intermodal volume and higher intermodal revenue per load, partially offset by lower dedicated revenue, and lower fuel revenue.

ITS operating income increased 17% to $16 million, or 3% of revenue, compared to $14 million, or 2% of revenue, in the prior year primarily due to lower purchased transportation costs, as well as the higher intermodal revenue per load.

Logistics revenue decreased 13% to $402 million from $461 million in prior year primarily due to lower volume and revenue per load in our brokerage business, softened demand in final mile and managed transportation businesses, and lower customer activity in consolidation and fulfillment.

Logistics operating income increased 27% to $24 million, or 6% of revenue in 2025, as compared to $19 million, or 4% of revenue in 2024. This increase was primarily related to continued cost controls, exiting of unprofitable business, and favorable mix between our lines of business. Additionally, there was a decrease in warehouse transfer costs and a reduction in our overall warehouse costs following the completion of our warehouse space consolidation efforts as part of our Network Alignment Initiative in 2024.

Purchased Transportation and Warehousing

Purchased transportation and warehousing costs decreased 8% to $684 million in 2025 from $740 million in 2024.

Purchased transportation and warehousing costs declined as compared to prior year due to rail cost decreases and lower third-party carrier costs as we have purchased third party transportation more effectively. Additionally, our warehouse costs have decreased after the completion of our warehouse space consolidation efforts as part of our Network Alignment Initiative in 2024.

Salaries and Benefits

Salaries and benefits remained relatively consistent at $143 million in both 2025 and 2024. As a percentage of revenue, salaries and benefits increased to 15.3% in 2025 from 14.5% in 2024. A $2 million increase in driver related expenses due to increased usage of company drivers versus third party drayage, and a $3 million increase in employee incentive compensation were fully offset by a $5 million decrease in salaries and benefits due to a 5% decrease in legacy non-driver, non-warehouse headcount.

Headcount, which includes drivers, warehouse personnel and office employees, was 6,604, which includes 608 employees of EASO, as of September 30, 2025 and 5,900 as of September 30, 2024, respectively. The increase in headcount is primarily due to office and driver employees due to the EASO acquisition.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $31 million in 2025 from $32 million in 2024. This decrease was primarily related to $2 million of decreased computer software and container depreciation expense resulting from changes made in the first and third quarters of 2025 to the estimated useful lives of our software and containers, respectively. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization due to the EASO acquisition. This expense, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 3.4% in 2025 from 3.3% in 2024. Depreciation expense includes transportation equipment, technology investments, leasehold improvements, warehouse equipment, office equipment and building improvements.

Insurance and Claims

Insurance and claims expense remained relatively consistent at $10 million in both 2025 and 2024. These expenses, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 1.1% in 2025 from 1.0% in 2024.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses decreased to $27 million in 2025 from $30 million in 2024. These expenses, as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 2.9% in 2025 from 3.0% in 2024.

This decrease in general and administrative expenses resulted from cost control initiatives resulting in a $2 million decrease in third party service costs and a $1 million decrease in temporary office labor costs.

Gain on Sale of Assets, Net

Net gains on the sale of equipment remained relative consistent at $0.5 million in both 2025 and 2024.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense, net decreased to $1 million in 2025 from $1.4 million in 2024. This decrease is due to an interest expense decrease of $0.5 million primarily due to lower overall debt balances partially offset by higher interest rates as well as a $0.8 million positive increase in Other, net related to the change in the Peso exchange rate due to the addition of EASO. These changes were partially offset by a decrease in interest income of $0.9 million due to lower invested cash balances.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes increased to $10 million in 2025 from $7 million in 2024 due to an increase in pre-tax income and a higher effective tax rate. We provided for income taxes using an effective rate of 24.9% in 2025 and an effective rate of 23.2% in 2024. The third quarter 2025 effective tax rate of 24.9% was higher than the 2024 effective tax rate due to an unfavorable adjustment related to a state tax audit recorded in the third quarter of 2025.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted, introducing significant changes to the U.S. federal income tax code. Key provisions include the reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation and the immediate expensing of research and development expenditures, including a one-time true-up deduction for previously capitalized amounts. While the Company continues to evaluate the longer-term implications of the legislation on its tax position and financial statements, we have incorporated the effects of the OBBBA into our third quarter income tax provision. These changes had no material impact on our effective tax rate.

Total consolidated operating revenue decreased 7% to $2.76 billion in 2025 from $2.97 billion in 2024.

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions (“ITS”) revenue decreased 3% to $1.62 billion primarily due to lower intermodal revenue per load, mix, lower fuel revenue and lower volume, as well as lower dedicated revenue.

ITS operating income increased 10% to $44 million, or 3% of revenue, as compared to $40 million, or 2% of revenue in the prior year due to lower purchased transportation costs, lower equipment costs, and improved insurance and claims expenses.

Logistics revenue decreased 13% to $1.22 billion primarily driven by lower volume and revenue per load in our brokerage business, exiting from unprofitable business in consolidation and fulfillment, and softened demand in final mile and managed transportation businesses.

Logistics operating income remained relatively consistent at 5% of revenue in both 2025 and 2024. Operating income was $67 million as compared to $69 million last year primarily driven by lower yields in brokerage margins.

Purchased Transportation and Warehousing

Purchased transportation and warehousing costs decreased 10% to $2.00 billion in 2025 from $2.21 billion in 2024.

Purchased transportation and warehousing costs declined as compared to prior year due to lower volumes in both the intermodal and brokerage businesses, reductions in external third-party warehouse costs, lower rail, and fuel costs. The reduction in warehouse costs is primarily driven by the completion of our Network Alignment Initiative in 2024.

Salaries and Benefits

Salaries and benefits increased to $436 million in 2025 from $429 million in 2024. As a percentage of revenue, salaries and benefits increased to 15.8% in 2025 from 14.4% in 2024.

The $7 million increase in salaries and benefits was primarily related to increases in driver costs as our usage of company drivers versus third party drayage has increased and warehouse employee costs as we increased our ratio of internal staffing of our warehouses, of $13 million. This increase in expenses was partially offset by a decrease of $6 million due to a 5% decrease in legacy non-driver, non-warehouse headcount.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $96 million in 2025 from $108 million in 2024. This decrease was related primarily to $11 million decreased container depreciation expense resulting from changes made in the third quarters of 2024 and 2025 to the estimated useful lives of our containers. Additionally, the decrease is due to a $2 million decrease to computer software depreciation expense resulting from a change made in the first quarter of 2025 to the estimated useful lives of our software. These decreases were partially offset by a $1 million increase in intangible amortization expense. This expense, as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 3.5% in 2025 from 3.6% in 2024. Depreciation expense includes transportation equipment, technology investments, leasehold improvements, warehouse equipment, office equipment and building improvements.

Insurance and Claims

Insurance and claims expense decreased to $32 million in 2025 from $35 million in 2024. This decrease was primarily due to decreased claim costs related to auto liability claims in 2025. These expenses, as a percentage of revenue, remained relatively consistent at 1.2% in both 2025 and 2024.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses decreased to $83 million in 2025 from $85 million in 2024. These expenses, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 3.0% in 2025 from 2.9% in 2024.

This expense decrease resulted from cost control initiatives resulting in a $2 million and $1 million reduction in temporary office labor costs and third party service costs, respectively, as well as a $1 million decrease in customer bad debt expense. These expense decreases were partially offset by a $2 million vendor settlement expense.

Gain on Sale of Assets, Net

Net gains on the sale of equipment decreased to $0.5 million in 2025 from $1.3 million in 2024. This decrease resulted from both less units sold and a lower average gain per unit sold in 2025 as compared to 2024.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense, net decreased to $4.0 million in 2025 from $6.0 million in 2024. This decrease is due to an interest expense decrease of $1.8 million primarily due to lower overall debt balances partially offset by higher interest rates and a $2.0 million positive increase in Other, net related to the change in the Peso exchange rate due to the addition of EASO. These changes were partially offset by a decrease of $1.8 million in interest income due to lower invested cash balances.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes increased to $26 million in 2025 from $23 million in 2024 due to an increase in pre-tax income and a higher effective tax rate. We provided for income taxes using an effective rate of 24.2% in 2025 as compared to an effective rate of 22.5% in 2024. The higher effective tax rate in 2025 is the result of an unfavorable adjustment related to a state tax audit and a smaller 2025 benefit on the vest of stock-based compensation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our financing and liquidity strategy is to fund operating cash payments and future dividends through cash received from the provision of services, cash on hand, and to a lesser extent, from cash received from the sale of equipment. As of September 30, 2025, we had $120 million of cash and cash equivalents. In addition, we had $21 million of restricted investments and $27 million of restricted cash, which are held for payments of long-term liabilities and the deferred cash consideration from the EASO transaction, respectively. We generally fund our purchases of transportation equipment through the issuance of secured, fixed rate Equipment Notes, including our purchase of container assets as part of the Marten Intermodal transaction. In prior years, we have funded our business acquisitions from cash on hand. Our investment agreement with EASO in October 2024 and purchase agreement with SITH in September 2025 are consistent with this approach. Payments for our other investing activities, such as our capitalized technology investments, have been funded by cash on hand or cash flows from operations. Cash used in financing activities including the purchase of treasury stock and dividend payments, have been funded by cash from operations or cash on hand. We have not historically used our Credit Facility to fund our operating, investing, or financing cash needs, though it is available to fund future cash requirements as needed. Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe cash on hand and cash received from the provision of services, along with other financing sources, will provide us the necessary capital to fund transactions and achieve our planned growth for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $160 million, which resulted primarily from net income of $81 million plus non-cash charges of $161 million, partially offset by the changes in operating assets and liabilities of $82 million.

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $160 million in 2025 compared to $194 million in 2024. The $34 million decrease in cash flow was primarily due to a decrease in the change in assets and liabilities of $49 million, partially offset by an increase in non-cash charges of $14 million and an increase in net income of $1 million.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $87 million which included capital expenditures of $39 million, purchase of container assets of $53 million resulting from the Marten transaction, and $1 million related to the acquisition of SITH. This activity was partially offset by proceeds from the sale of equipment of $7 million. Capital expenditures of $39 million related primarily to tractors of $19 million, technology investments of $15 million, warehouse equipment of $4 million and the remainder for other transportation equipment.

Capital expenditures decreased by approximately $4 million in 2025 as compared to 2024. The 2025 decrease was due primarily to decreases in warehouse equipment purchases of $3 million, container purchases of $2 million as well leasehold improvements and transportation and other equipment of $1 million each. These decreases were partially offset by increased tractor purchases of $3 million.

In 2025, we estimate capital expenditures will range from $40 million to $50 million. We expect the remaining expenditures to focus on technology investments and warehouse equipment. We do not plan to purchase containers in 2025. We plan to fund these expenditures with cash on hand.

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $53 million which includes cash used for repayments of long-term debt of $77 million, the purchase of treasury stock of $14 million, dividends paid of $23 million, and cash used for stock tendered for payments of withholding taxes of $7 million, partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of debt of $67 million. Debt incurred in 2025 was used to fund the purchase of transportation equipment, including the container assets in the Marten transaction.

The $112 million decrease in cash used in financing activities for 2025 versus 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in the purchase of treasury stock of $54 million, decrease in cash paid for repayments of debt of $4 million, cash paid for stock related to employee withholding taxes of $2 million, cash paid for finance lease payments of $1 million, as well as an increase in proceeds from the issuance of debt of $50 million.

As a result of anticipated favorable timing differences, primarily related to research and development cost expensing and intangible amortization, we expect our cash paid for income taxes in 2025 to be less than our income tax expense.

See Note 6 of the condensed consolidated financial statements for details related to interest rates and commitment fees.

We have standby letters of credit that expire in 2026. Our letters of credit were $1 million as of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, we had no borrowings under the Credit Agreement and our unused and available borrowings were $449 million and $349 million, respectively. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

We are continually evaluating the possible effects of current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts in operational cash flows, including the risks of declines in the overall freight market and our customers’ liquidity and ability to pay. We are monitoring working capital on a daily basis and are in frequent communications with our customers.

We do not have any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or liabilities.

We are currently integrating processes, employees, technologies and operations. Management will continue to evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting as we complete our integration.

 

PART II. Other Information

For information regarding legal proceedings, see Note 7 “Legal Matters” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements.”

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investing in shares of our stock involves certain risks, including those identified and described in Part I, Item 1A of our 2024 10-K under the heading “Risk Factors.” When any one or more of these risks materialize from time to time, the Company's business and stock price can be materially and adversely affected. There have been no material changes to the Company's risk factors since the 2024 Form 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In October 2023, the Board authorized the purchase of up to $250 million of our Class A Common Stock pursuant to a share repurchase program (the 2023 Program). Under the 2023 Program, the shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, from time to time subject to market and other conditions. The approved share repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares and the program may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we did not purchase any shares under the 2023 Program. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we purchased 330,441 shares for approximately $13.8 million under the 2023 Program.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we purchased 2,913 shares for approximately $0.1 million related to withholding upon vesting of restricted stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we purchased 154,598 shares for approximately $6.8 million related to withholding upon vesting of restricted stock.

The table below includes information on a monthly basis regarding shares purchased under the 2023 Program and the number of shares delivered to us to satisfy the mandatory tax withholding requirement upon vesting of restricted stock during the quarter ended
