NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. GENERAL

Nature of Operations

Schneider National, Inc. and its subsidiaries (together “Schneider,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) are among the largest providers of surface transportation and logistics solutions in North America. We offer a multimodal portfolio of services and an array of capabilities and resources that leverage artificial intelligence, data science, and analytics to provide innovative solutions that coordinate the timely, safe, and effective movement of customer products. The Company offers truckload, intermodal, and logistics services to a diverse customer base throughout the continental U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements and footnotes do not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Financial results for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of our financial results for the interim periods presented.

New Accounting Pronouncements

On November 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU provides additional guidance on reportable segment disclosures, including information on significant segment expenses and other items provided to the CODM by reportable segment and the title and position of the CODM. Additionally, annual segment disclosures currently reported under ASC 280 are now required for all interim periods. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We believe this standard will impact our disclosures but will not impact our consolidated financial statements.

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU expands the disclosures related to rate reconciliations by requiring entities to disclose items meeting a quantitative threshold and eight categories. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. We believe this standard will impact our disclosures but will not impact our consolidated financial statements.

2. ACQUISITIONS

M&M Transport Services, LLC

On August 1, 2023 (“Acquisition Date”), we acquired 100% of the membership interest in M&M for $243.8 million, inclusive of cash and other working capital adjustments. M&M is a dedicated trucking company located primarily in New England with nearly 500 tractors and 1,900 trailers which we believe complements our dedicated operations.

The acquisition of M&M was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at their fair values as of the Acquisition Date. These inputs represent Level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy and required significant judgments and estimates at the time of valuation. Fair value estimates of acquired transportation equipment were based on an independent appraisal, giving consideration to the highest and best use of the assets with key assumptions based on the market approach. The assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm was used to determine the estimated fair values and useful lives of finite-lived intangible assets including customer relationships and trademarks. Valuation methods used were the multi-period excess earnings method and relief from royalty method for customer relationships and trademarks, respectively. Non-compete agreements were recorded based on amount paid at closing.

The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill within the Truckload reporting segment. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and growth opportunities within our dedicated business and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Table of Contents

Acquisition-related costs, which consist of fees incurred for advisory, legal, and accounting services, were not material and were included in other general expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation for M&M, including adjustments during the measurement period.

The above adjustments made during the measurement period were primarily related to working capital, accrued taxes, and intangible assets. No material adjustments were made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

The following unaudited pro forma revenues give effect to the acquisition had it been effective January 1, 2023. Combined unaudited pro forma operating revenues of the Company and M&M would have been approximately $1,376.8 million and $2,836.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and our earnings for the same periods would not have been materially different.

3. LEASES

As Lessee

We lease real estate and equipment under operating and finance leases. Our real estate operating leases include operating centers, distribution warehouses, offices, and drop yards. Our non-real estate operating and finance leases include transportation, office, yard, warehouse, and other equipment, in addition to truck washes. The majority of our leases include an option to extend the lease, and a small number include an option to terminate the lease early, which may include a termination payment.

In conjunction with our acquisition of M&M, the Company entered into nine related party leases. The leases are for the use of shop, warehouse, office, and drop yard locations throughout the country. The leases run through 2026, and the related lease payments are not material.

Additional information related to our leases is as follows:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
(in millions)	2024		2023
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities
Operating cash flows for operating leases	$	19.6	$	18.0
Operating cash flows for finance leases	0.3		0.2
Financing cash flows for finance leases	2.2		1.7

Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new lease liabilities
Operating leases	$	16.7	$	29.8
Finance leases	0.2		2.7

As of June 30, 2024, we had a signed lease that had not yet commenced totaling $0.1 million. The lease will commence in August 2024 and have a lease term of three years.

As Lessor

We finance various types of transportation-related equipment for independent third parties under lease contracts, which are generally for one to three years and are accounted for as sales-type leases with fully guaranteed residual values. Our leases contain an option for the lessee to return, extend, or purchase the equipment at the end of the lease term for the guaranteed contract residual amount. This contract residual amount is estimated to approximate the fair value of the equipment. Lease payments primarily include base rentals and guaranteed residual values.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, investments in lease receivables were as follows:


(in millions)	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Future minimum payments to be received on leases	$	165.0	$	161.8
Guaranteed residual lease values	98.0		103.9
Total minimum lease payments to be received	263.0		265.7
Unearned income	(44.0)		(42.2)
Net investment in leases	$	219.0	$	223.5

Prior to entering a lease contract, we assess the credit quality of the potential lessee using credit checks and other relevant factors, ensuring that the inherent credit risk is consistent with our existing lease portfolio. Given our leases have fully guaranteed residual values and we can take possession of the transportation-related equipment in the event of default, we do not categorize net investment in leases by different credit quality indicators upon origination. We monitor our lease portfolio weekly by tracking amounts past due, days past due, and outstanding maintenance account balances, including performing subsequent credit checks as needed. Our net investment in leases with any portion past due as of June 30, 2024 was $55.9 million, which includes both current and future lease payments. Lease payments on our lease receivables are generally due on a weekly basis and are classified as past due when the weekly payment is not received by its due date. As of June 30, 2024, our lease payments past due were $3.0 million.

The table below provides additional information on our sales-type leases. Revenue and cost of goods sold are recorded in operating revenues and operating supplies and expenses—net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively.

We had no contract liabilities related to amounts customers paid in advance of the associated services as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

5. FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the estimated price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value fall into three broad levels (Levels 1, 2, and 3) as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2—Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, for the asset or liability or prices for similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk).

Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Table of Contents

The table below sets forth the Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring, monthly basis in accordance with ASC 820.


		Fair Value
(in millions)	Level in Fair Value Hierarchy	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Equity investment in TuSimple (1)	1	$	0.1	$	0.3
Marketable securities (2)	2	54.0		57.2

(1)Our equity investment in TuSimple is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as shares of TuSimple’s Class A common stock are traded on an Over the Counter (“OTC”) market beginning February 8, 2024 and the NASDAQ prior to that date. See Note 6, Investments, for additional information.

(2)Marketable securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as they are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active. See Note 6, Investments, for additional information.

The fair value of the Company’s debt was $183.4 million and $183.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The carrying value of the Company’s debt was $185.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair value of our debt was calculated using a fixed rate debt portfolio with similar terms and maturities, which is based on the borrowing rates available to us in the applicable period. This valuation used Level 2 inputs.

The recorded values of cash, trade accounts receivable, lease receivables, trade accounts payable, and amounts outstanding under revolving credit agreements approximate fair values.

As part of the acquisition of M&M on August 1, 2023, certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions, for further details.

6. INVESTMENTS

Marketable Securities

Our marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value in current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. While our intent is to hold our securities to maturity, sudden changes in the market or our liquidity needs may cause us to sell certain securities in advance of their maturity date.

Any unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheets, unless we determine that the amortized cost basis is not recoverable. If we determine that the amortized cost basis of the impaired security is not recoverable, we recognize the credit loss by increasing the allowance for those losses. We did not have an allowance for credit losses on our marketable securities as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. Cost basis is determined using the specific identification method.

The following table presents the maturities and values of our marketable securities as of the dates shown.


	June 30, 2024					December 31, 2023

Equity Investments without Readily Determinable Fair Values

The Company’s primary strategic equity investments without readily determinable fair values include Platform Science, Inc., a provider of telematics and fleet management tools; MLSI, a transportation technology development company; and ChemDirect, a business-to-business digital marketplace for the chemical industry. These investments are being accounted for under ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities, using the measurement alternative, and their combined values as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $121.8 million. If the Company identifies observable price changes for identical or similar securities of the same issuer, the equity security is measured at fair value as of the date the observable transaction occurred using Level 3 inputs. As of June 30, 2024, our cumulative upward adjustments were $72.0 million. In addition to our investment in MLSI, we hold a $10.0 million note receivable from MLSI as of June 30, 2024 and 2023. The note was funded during the first quarter of 2023, is subject to interest over its term, and matures in March 2030. We also hold a $2.5 million note receivable in Platform Science as of June 30, 2024. This note was executed and funded during the second quarter of 2024, is subject to interest over its term, and matures in March 2027. We had no additional investments or upward adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 or three months ended June 30, 2023. We recorded an additional investment of $5.0 million and an upward adjustment of $17.7 million in the first quarter of 2023.

Equity Investments with Readily Determinable Fair Values

In 2021, the Company purchased a $5.0 million non-controlling interest in TuSimple, a global self-driving technology company.

Our net investment activity was not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. See Note 5, Fair Value, for additional information on the fair value of our investment in TuSimple.

Equity Method Investment

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company invested $5.0 million consisting primarily of internal use software and cash in exchange for a 50% non-controlling ownership interest in Scope 23 LLC, an entity that provides a platform for shippers to track and manage their greenhouse gas emissions. Our interest is being accounted for under ASC 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, activity was not material. The carrying value of our investment was $4.8 million as of June 30, 2024.

All of our equity investments, as well as our notes receivable from MLSI and Platform Science, Inc., are included in internal use software and other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Gains or losses on our equity investments are recognized within other expenses (income)—net on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

7. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Our goodwill balance as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $331.7 million and was comprised of $317.5 million and $14.2 million in our Truckload and Logistics segments, respectively. As of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our Truckload segment had accumulated goodwill impairment charges of $34.6 million.

The identifiable finite lived intangible assets listed below are included in internal use software and other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets and relate to the acquisitions of MLS and M&M. The weighted-average amortization period is 15.0 years for customer relationships and trademarks and 5.0 years for non-compete agreements for a total weighted-average amortization period of 13.9 years. Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions, for further details.

Our Credit Agreement (the “2022 Credit Facility”) provides borrowing capacity of $250.0 million and allows us to request an additional increase in total commitment by up to $150.0 million, for a total potential commitment of $400.0 million through November 2027, inclusive of a $100.0 million sublimit to be used for the issuance of letters of credit. Balances are included within long-term debt and finance lease obligations on the consolidated balance sheets. Standby letters of credit under this agreement amounted to $0.4 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our real estate leases.

During the second quarter of 2024, we renewed our Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “2024 Receivables Purchase Agreement”), which allows us to borrow funds against qualifying trade receivables at rates based on the one-month Term SOFR up to $200.0 million through May 2027, inclusive of a $100.0 million sublimit to be used for the issuance of letters of credit. Our previous agreement, the “2021 Receivables Purchase Agreement,” allowed us to borrow up to $150.0 million against qualifying trade receivables at rates based on the one-month Term SOFR and had a maturity date of July 2024. Borrowings under the 2024 Receivables Purchase Agreement were included within long-term debt and finance lease obligations as of June 30, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, borrowings under the 2021 Receivables Purchase Agreement were included within our current maturities of debt and finance lease obligations due to the pending maturity date. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, standby letters of credit under these agreements amounted to $73.9 million and $81.4 million, respectively, and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our insurance obligations.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share excluded 0.7 million and 0.3 million share-based awards and options that had an anti-dilutive effect for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 0.3 million and 0.5 million share-based awards and options that had an anti-dilutive effect for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Common Shares Outstanding

As of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had 83,029,500 shares of Class A common stock outstanding. There were no changes to the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

The following table shows changes to our Class B common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

In January 2023, our Board approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of its Class A and/or Class B common shares. The program does not obligate the Company to repurchase a minimum number of shares and is intended to help offset the dilutive effect of equity grants to employees over time. Under this program, the Company may repurchase shares in privately negotiated and/or open market transactions. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has repurchased $91.9 million of the $150.0 million authorized under the repurchase program.

Subsequent Event - Dividends Declared

In July of 2024, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend for the third fiscal quarter of 2024 in the amount of $0.095 per share to holders of our Class A and Class B common stock. The dividend is payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 13, 2024 and will be paid on October 8, 2024.

Table of Contents

11. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

We grant various equity-based awards relating to Class B common stock to employees under our 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“the Plan”). These awards have historically consisted of restricted shares, RSUs, performance-based restricted shares (“performance shares”), PSUs, and non-qualified stock options. Performance shares and PSUs granted are earned based on attainment of threshold performance of earnings and return on capital targets, in addition to a multiplier applied based on rTSR against peers over the performance period.

Share-based compensation expense was $3.9 million and $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $5.1 million and $8.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We recognize share-based compensation expense over the awards’ vesting period. As of June 30, 2024, we had $24.4 million of pre-tax unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding share-based compensation awards expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of conducting our business, we become involved in certain legal matters and investigations including liability claims, taxes other than income taxes, contract disputes, employment, and other litigation matters. We accrue for anticipated costs to resolve matters that are probable and estimable. We believe the outcomes of these matters will not have a material impact on our business or our consolidated financial statements.

We record liabilities for claims against the Company based on our best estimate of expected losses. The primary claims arising for the Company through its trucking, intermodal, and logistics operations consist of accident-related claims for personal injury, collision, and comprehensive compensation, in addition to workers’ compensation, property damage, cargo, and wage and benefit claims. We maintain excess liability insurance with licensed insurance carriers for liability in excess of amounts we self-insure, which serves to largely offset the Company’s liability associated with these claims, with the exception of wage and benefit claims for which we self-insure. We review our accruals periodically to ensure that the aggregate amounts of our accruals are appropriate at any period after consideration of available insurance coverage. Although we expect that our claims accruals will continue to vary based on future developments, assuming that we are able to continue to obtain and maintain excess liability insurance coverage for such claims, we do not anticipate that such accruals will, in any period, materially impact our operating results.

As of June 30, 2024, our firm commitments to purchase transportation equipment totaled $156.8 million.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a $5.2 million charge as a result of adverse audit assessments by a state tax authority over the applicability of sales tax for prior periods on rolling stock equipment used within that state. The Company filed a request for appeal of the audit assessment with the state jurisdiction, and during the second quarter of 2023, a ruling was made in favor of the state resulting in an additional $2.9 million in interest and penalties being recorded by the Company to cover all periods audited. The Company filed a petition request with the state Appellate Tax Board in January 2024 covering periods at appeals. The initial charge, as well as the additional interest and penalties incurred were recorded within operating supplies and expenses—net on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

13. SEGMENT REPORTING

We have three reportable segments – Truckload, Intermodal, and Logistics – which are based primarily on the services each segment provides.

As of January 1, 2023, our operating segments within the Truckload reportable segment were VTL, Bulk, and MLS. As a result of expanding our dedicated business through recent acquisitions, in the fourth quarter of 2023, we reorganized the operating segments within Truckload into Dedicated, which includes MLS and M&M; Van Network; and Bulk. The three operating segments are aggregated because they have similar economic characteristics with our other Truckload operating segments and meet the other aggregation criteria described in ASC 280. Dedicated provides truckload services primarily focused on freight with consistent routes often based on long-term contracts, Van Network consists of irregular routes, and Bulk delivers key inputs for manufacturing processes, such as specialty chemicals using specialty trailers.

The CODM reviews revenues for each segment without the inclusion of fuel surcharge revenues. For segment purposes, any fuel surcharge revenues earned are recorded as a reduction of the segment’s fuel expenses. Income from operations at the segment level reflects the measure presented to the CODM for each segment.

Separate balance sheets are not prepared by segment, and as a result, assets are not separately identifiable by segment. All transactions between reportable segments are eliminated in consolidation.

Table of Cont ents

Substantially all of our revenues and assets were generated or located within the U.S.

The following tables summarize our segment information. Inter-segment revenues within Other include revenues from insurance premiums charged to other segments for workers’ compensation, auto, and other types of insurance. Inter-segment revenues included in Other revenues below were $24.4 million and $16.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $49.6 million and $34.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

INTRODUCTION

Company Overview

We are a transportation and logistics services company providing a multimodal portfolio of truckload, intermodal, and logistics solutions. Our diversified portfolio of complementary service offerings enables us to serve our customers’ varied transportation needs and to allocate capital in a manner that seeks to maximize returns across all market cycles and economic conditions. We continually monitor our performance and market conditions to ensure appropriate allocation of capital and resources to grow our businesses, while optimizing returns across reportable segments. Our strong balance sheet, scalable platform, and experienced operations team are supportive of our acquisition strategy, which includes acquiring high-quality businesses that meet our disciplined selection criteria to enhance our service offerings and broaden our customer base.

Our truckload services consist of over the road freight transportation via dry van, bulk, temperature-controlled, and flat-bed trailers across either network or dedicated configurations. Freight is transported and delivered by our company-employed drivers in company trucks and by owner-operators with company-owned trailers and executed through long-haul or regional services, including customized solutions for high-value and time-sensitive loads throughout North America.

Our intermodal services consist of door-to-door container on flat car service through a combination of rail and dray transportation, in association with our rail providers. Our intermodal business uses company-owned containers, chassis, and trucks with primarily company dray drivers, augmented by third-party dray capacity.

Our logistics services consist of asset-light freight brokerage (including both traditional brokerage and Power Only services which leverage our nationwide company-owned trailer pools to match third-party capacity with customer demand), supply chain (including 3PL), warehousing, and import/export services. Our logistics business provides value-added services using both our assets and third-party capacity, augmented by our trailing assets, to manage and move our customers’ freight.

Our success depends on our ability to balance our transportation network and efficiently and effectively manage our resources in the delivery of truckload, intermodal, and logistics services to our customers. Resource requirements vary with customer demand, which may be subject to seasonal or general economic conditions. We believe that our ability to properly select freight and adapt to changes in customer transportation needs allows us to efficiently deploy resources and make capital investments in trucks, trailers, containers, and chassis or obtain qualified third-party capacity at reasonable prices.

Consistent with the transportation industry, our business can be seasonal across each of our segments, which generally translates to our reported revenues being the lowest in the first quarter and highest in the fourth quarter. Operating expenses tend to be higher in the winter months, primarily due to colder weather, which causes higher maintenance expense and higher fuel consumption from increased idle time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this section of our report, we present the following non-GAAP financial measures: (1) revenues (excluding fuel surcharge), (2) adjusted income from operations, (3) adjusted operating ratio, (4) adjusted net income, (5) adjusted EBITDA, and (6) free cash flow. We also provide reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes the use of each of these non-GAAP measures assists investors in understanding our business by (1) removing the impact of items from our operating results that, in our opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance, (2) providing investors with the same information our management uses internally to assess our core operating performance, and (3) presenting comparable financial results between periods. In addition, in the case of revenues (excluding fuel surcharge), we believe the measure is useful to investors because it isolates volume, price, and cost changes directly related to industry demand and the way we operate our business from the external factor of fluctuating fuel prices and the programs we have in place to manage such fluctuations. Fuel-related costs and their impact on our industry are important to our results of operations, but they are often independent of other, more relevant factors affecting our results of operations and our industry. Free cash flow is used as a measure to assess overall liquidity and does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt.

Table of Cont ents

Although we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors, they have limitations as analytical tools and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies. You should not consider the non-GAAP measures in this report in isolation or as substitutes for, or alternatives to, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. The exclusion of unusual or infrequent items or other adjustments reflected in the non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will not be affected by unusual or infrequent items or by other items similar to such adjustments. Our management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results in addition to using the non-GAAP measures.

Enterprise Summary

The following table includes key GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures for the consolidated enterprise. Adjustments to arrive at non-GAAP measures are made at the enterprise level, with the exception of fuel surcharge revenues, which are not included in segment revenues.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2023

Enterprise Results Summary

Enterprise net income decreased $42.2 million, approximately 54%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023, primarily due to a $52.8 million decrease in income from operations, partially offset by the corresponding $14.0 million decrease in the provision for income taxes.

Adjusted net income decreased $43.4 million, approximately 54%.

Components of Enterprise Net Income

Enterprise Revenues

Enterprise operating revenues decreased $29.8 million, approximately 2%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023.

Factors contributing to the decrease include:

•a $24.6 million decrease in Logistics segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) driven by decreased revenue per order and a decline in volume within our brokerage business due to freight market conditions;

•a $7.9 million decrease in Intermodal segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) due to reduced revenue per order, partially offset by a slight increase in orders;

•and a $6.8 million decrease in fuel surcharge revenues resulting from decreased fuel prices;

•partially offset by a $7.6 million increase in Truckload segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) primarily related to organic and acquisitive growth within Dedicated, inclusive of the M&M acquisition, and increases in revenue per truck per week. This was partially offset by a decline in Network trucks and revenue per truck per week.

Enterprise revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $23.0 million, approximately 2%.

Enterprise Income from Operations and Operating Ratio

Enterprise income from operations decreased $52.8 million, approximately 51%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023, primarily due to a decrease in net revenue per order in Logistics, revenue per order in Intermodal, and revenue per truck per week in Truckload resulting from ongoing pricing pressures. The revenue impact of volume declines within our brokerage business was driven by continued downward pressure on brokerage demand. An increase in driver wages due to increased headcount primarily from the M&M acquisition, a reduction in gains on equipment sales, an increase in depreciation due to an increase in revenue equipment counts, and increases in insurance expense also contributed to the decrease. These factors were partially offset by an increase in Truckload volumes driven by Dedicated growth, including the

Table of Cont ents

M&M acquisition, a slight increase in Intermodal volume, and declines in purchased transportation costs.

Adjusted income from operations decreased $54.4 million, approximately 51%.

Enterprise operating ratio (operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenues) increased on both a GAAP and adjusted basis when compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Enterprise Operating Expenses

Key operating expense fluctuations are described below.

•Purchased transportation decreased $38.5 million, or 7%, quarter over quarter, primarily resulting from a decline in third-party carrier costs within Logistics due to lower brokerage volume and purchased transportation costs per order. Owner-operator purchased transportation costs also declined within Truckload due to a reduction in owner-operator capacity.

•Salaries, wages, and benefits increased $26.8 million, or 8%, quarter over quarter, mainly due to driver wages and benefits related to the increase in driver headcount within Dedicated, including the M&M acquisition.

•Fuel and fuel taxes for company trucks increased $3.9 million, or 4%, quarter over quarter, driven by an increase in company driver miles, partially offset by a decrease in cost per gallon. A significant portion of fuel costs are recovered through our fuel surcharge programs.

•Depreciation and amortization increased $9.3 million, or 10%, quarter over quarter, mainly due to additional depreciation expense incurred as a result of trailer and tractor growth within Dedicated, the cumulative impacts from the increased cost of equipment, and incremental depreciation and amortization expense related to the M&M acquisition.

•Operating supplies and expenses—net increased $16.6 million, or 12%, quarter over quarter, largely resulting from lower gains on sales of equipment due to a decrease in average sales price per unit and increases in cost of goods sold in our leasing business.

•Insurance expense increased $7.5 million, or 29%, quarter over quarter, driven by an increase in auto liability insurance costs related to an increase in premiums and severity of claims.

•Other general expenses decreased $2.6 million, or 9%, quarter over quarter, primarily related to a reduction in bad debt expense.

Total Other Expenses (Income)

Total other expenses increased $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023. This change was primarily the result of an increase of $1.9 million in interest expense combined with a decrease of $1.7 million in interest income for the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter of 2023.

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes decreased $14.0 million, or 54%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023, primarily due to lower taxable income. The effective income tax rate was 25.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 24.9% for the same quarter of 2023. Our provision for income taxes may fluctuate in future periods to the extent there are changes to tax laws and regulations.

(7)Calculated as segment operating expenses divided by segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) including revenue in transit and related expenses at the operating segment level.

Truckload revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $7.6 million, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023. This was driven by an increase in volume within Dedicated due to acquisitive and organic growth, partially offset by lower rate per loaded mile and volume in our Network business.

Truckload income from operations decreased $34.1 million, approximately 53%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023. In addition to the revenue impacts of lower volumes and rate per loaded mile within Network, other items contributing to the decreased income from operations include an increase in salaries and wages expense due to higher driver headcount inclusive of the M&M acquisition, lower gains on equipment sales, and increased insurance premium expense. This was partially offset by decreased purchased transportation costs driven by a reduction in owner operator capacity.

Intermodal revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $7.9 million, approximately 3%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023 primarily due to a decrease in revenue per order of $126, or 5%, driven by market conditions and freight mix, partially offset by an increase in volume.

Intermodal income from operations decreased $9.1 million, approximately 38%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023. Factors contributing to the decrease include the revenue impacts cited above and an increase in rail-related costs due to higher volumes. partially offset by network management and operational and dray cost improvements.

Logistics revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $24.6 million, approximately 7%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023. This was primarily due to a decrease in brokerage revenue per order and a 4% reduction in brokerage volume driven by continued softness in the market.

Logistics income from operations decreased $1.6 million, approximately 13%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023 due to lower volumes and reduced net revenue per order.

Other

Other income from operations decreased $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter in 2023, mainly driven by a decrease in earnings within our leasing business.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Enterprise Results Summary

Enterprise net income decreased $121.7 million, approximately 69%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a $138.7 million decrease in income from operations and a $22.1 million unfavorable change in total other expenses (income)—net related largely to decreased gains on our equity investments and lower interest income. Decreases were partially offset by the corresponding $39.1 million decrease in the provision for income taxes. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized pre-tax net losses of $0.2 million compared to $17.7 million in pre-tax gains on our equity investments during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Adjusted net income decreased $121.9 million, approximately 69%.

Components of Enterprise Net Income

Enterprise Revenues

Enterprise operating revenues decreased $139.5 million, approximately 5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

Factors contributing to the decrease were as follows:

•an $81.9 million decrease in Logistics segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) driven by decreased revenue per order and a decline in brokerage volumes due to freight market conditions:

•a $30.1 million decrease in fuel surcharge revenues resulting from decreased fuel prices;

•and a $26.8 million decrease in Intermodal segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) due to a decrease in revenue per order;

•partially offset by an $8.7 million increase in Truckload segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) driven by an increase in Dedicated, including the M&M acquisition, and increases in revenue per truck per week. This was partially offset by declines in revenue within our Network business due to decreases in revenue per order and volume resulting from ongoing soft market conditions, and Network revenue per truck per week.

Enterprise revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $109.4 million, approximately 4%.

Enterprise Income from Operations and Operating Ratio

Enterprise income from operations decreased $138.7 million, approximately 64%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a decrease in net revenue per order in Logistics, revenue per order in Intermodal, and revenue per truck per week in Truckload resulting from ongoing pricing pressures. The revenue impact of volume declines within our brokerage business was driven by continued downward pressure on brokerage demand. Also contributing to the decrease was an increase in driver wages primarily from increased headcount including the M&M acquisition, a reduction in gains on equipment sales, increases in insurance expense, and increased depreciation due to an increase in revenue equipment counts. These factors were partially offset by an increase in Truckload volumes attributable to our legacy Dedicated business and the M&M acquisition, a slight increase in Intermodal volumes, and reduced purchased transportation costs.

Adjusted income from operations decreased $139.0 million, approximately 63%.

Enterprise operating ratio (operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenues) increased on both a GAAP and adjusted basis when compared to the same period of 2023.

Enterprise Operating Expenses

Key operating expense fluctuations are described below.

•Purchased transportation costs decreased $92.9 million, or 8%, period over period, primarily resulting from decreased third-party carrier costs within Logistics due to lower purchased transportation costs per order and brokerage volumes, as well as a decline in owner-operator purchased transportation costs within Truckload due to a reduction in owner-operator capacity and lower pay per mile.

•Salaries, wages, and benefits increased $44.1 million, or 7%, period over period, largely due to an increase in driver headcount within Dedicated, inclusive of the M&M acquisition.

•Fuel and fuel taxes for company trucks decreased $1.4 million, or 1%, period over period, driven by a decrease in cost per gallon, partially offset by an increase in company driver miles within Truckload. A significant portion of fuel costs are recovered through our fuel surcharge programs.

•Depreciation and amortization increased $20.3 million, or 11%, period over period, mainly due to additional depreciation expense resulting from trailer and tractor growth within Dedicated, the ongoing impacts from the increased cost of equipment, and incremental depreciation and amortization expense related to the M&M acquisition.

•Operating supplies and expenses—net increased $22.3 million, or 8%, period over period, driven by a reduction in gains on equipment sales due to a decrease in average sale price and an increase in cost of goods sold in our leasing business. These factors were partially offset by a decrease in equipment rental expense as a result of improved port fluidity and lower rail storage expense.

•Insurance and related expenses increased $13.9 million, or 28%, period over period, driven by an increase in auto liability insurance costs related to an increase in premiums and severity of claims.

•Other general expenses decreased $7.1 million, or 11%, period over period, largely related to a decrease in driver onboarding costs as fewer drivers were hired due to market conditions along with a reduction in bad debt expense.

Total Other Expenses (Income)

Total other income decreased $22.1 million, approximately 157%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This change was primarily driven by pre-tax net losses on our equity investments of $0.2 million in 2024 compared to pre-tax net gains of $17.7 million in 2023. Interest income also decreased $3.0 million in 2024 compared to 2023 primarily due to lower cash balances. See Note 6, Investments, for more information on our equity investments.

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes decreased $39.1 million, approximately 69%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due to lower taxable income. The effective income tax rate was 25.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 24.5% for the same period in 2023. Our provision for income taxes may fluctuate in future periods to the extent there are changes to tax laws and regulations.

(6)Includes entire fleet of owned trailers, including trailers with leasing arrangements between Truckload and Logistics.

(7)Calculated as segment operating expenses divided by segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) including revenue in transit and related expenses at the operating segment level.

Truckload revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $8.7 million, approximately 1%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Volume increased slightly, largely driven by increased Dedicated volume due to organic new business growth and the acquisition of M&M, offset by a reduction in Network volume and rate per loaded mile due to market conditions.

Truckload income from operations decreased $81.8 million, approximately 64%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Factors contributing to the decreased income from operations include the revenue impacts of Network listed above, an increase in driver wages (due to increased driver headcount, primarily related to the M&M acquisition), a decrease in gains on equipment sales, increased insurance premium expense, and an increase in depreciation expense as a result of growth within Dedicated (including the M&M acquisition). This was partially offset by a decrease in purchased transportation costs driven by reduced owner operator capacity.

(2)Calculated using rail revenues excluding fuel surcharge and revenue in transit, consistent with how revenue is reported internally for segment purposes.

(3)Calculated as segment operating expenses divided by segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) including revenue in transit and related expenses at the operating segment level.

Intermodal revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $26.8 million, approximately 5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This was driven by market conditions which led to a $157, or 6%, decrease in revenue per order, partially offset by a slight increase in volume.

Intermodal income from operations decreased $32.1 million, approximately 60%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 mainly the result of factors impacting revenues discussed above, as well as an increase in rail-related costs and wages. This was partially offset by network management and operational and dray cost improvements.

Logistics

The following table presents the KPI for our Logistics segment for the periods indicated.


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023
Operating ratio (1)	97.4	%	95.7	%

(1)Calculated as segment operating expenses divided by segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) including revenue in transit and related expenses at the operating segment level.

Logistics revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $81.9 million, approximately 11%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This was mainly the result of decreases in revenue per order and volume within our brokerage business, as well as reduced port dray revenues due to improved port fluidity in 2024.

Logistics income from operations decreased $14.7 million, approximately 47%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to the factors related to revenue listed above. This was partially offset by decreases in third party transportation costs per order.

Other

Other income from operations decreased $10.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The change was primarily due to a decrease in earnings within our leasing business, partially offset by $2.9 million of additional interest and penalties related to the sales tax audit assessment recorded in the second quarter of 2023. See Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, for more information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary uses of cash are working capital requirements, capital expenditures, dividend payments, share repurchases, and debt service requirements. Additionally, we may use cash for acquisitions and other investing and financing activities. Working capital is required principally to ensure we are able to run the business and have sufficient funds to satisfy maturing short-term debt and operational expenses. Our capital expenditures consist primarily of transportation equipment and information technology.

Table of Cont ents

Historically, our primary source of liquidity has been cash flow from operations. In addition, we have a $250.0 million revolving credit facility maturing in November 2027 and a $200.0 million receivables purchase agreement maturing in May 2027, for which our combined available capacity as of June 30, 2024 was $305.7 million. Our revolving credit facility also allows us to request an additional increase in total commitment by up to $150.0 million. We had maximum borrowings under the facilities of $145.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. We anticipate that cash generated from operations, together with amounts available under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to meet our requirements for the foreseeable future. To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that we will obtain these funds through additional borrowings, equity offerings, or a combination of these potential sources of liquidity. Our ability to fund future operating expenses and capital expenditures, as well as our ability to meet future debt service obligations or refinance our indebtedness, will depend on our future operating performance, which will be affected by general economic, financial, and other factors beyond our control.

The following table presents our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and outstanding debt and finance lease obligations as of the dates shown.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the changes to our net cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the periods indicated.

(in millions)	2024		2023
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	280.2	$	303.2
Net cash used in investing activities	(178.1)		(364.1)
Net cash used in financing activities	(101.3)		(75.6)

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $23.0 million, approximately 8%, in the first six months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease was a result of a decrease in net income adjusted for various noncash items, partially offset by an increase in cash provided by working capital. Working capital changes were driven by an increase in cash provided by receivables, other liabilities, claims reserves, and other assets.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased $186.0 million, approximately 51%, in the first six months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease in cash used was primarily related to decreases in cash used for net capital expenditures, purchases of lease equipment, purchases of marketable securities, investment in notes receivable, investments in equity securities, and an increase in proceeds from the sale of off-lease inventory.

Net Capital Expenditures

The following table sets forth our net capital expenditures for the periods indicated.


	Six Months Ended June 30,
(in millions)	2024		2023
Purchases of transportation equipment	$	220.4	$	344.4
Purchases of other property and equipment	19.4		25.3
Proceeds from sale of property and equipment	(58.2)		(71.6)
Net capital expenditures	$	181.6	$	298.1

Net capital expenditures decreased $116.5 million in the first six months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease was driven by a $124.0 million decrease in purchases of transportation equipment mainly due to higher spend on growth and replacement equipment in 2023. Proceeds from sale of property and equipment decreased year over year primarily due to lower proceeds per sale.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities increased $25.7 million, approximately 34%, in the first six months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to $35.0 million of net payments under revolving credit agreements during the first six months of 2024, partially offset by a decrease of $10.3 million in treasury stock repurchases.

Other Considerations that Could Affect Our Results, Liquidity, or Capital Resources

Factors that Could Result in a Goodwill Impairment

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually using the discounted cash flow, guideline public company, and guideline transaction methods, as applicable, to calculate the fair values of our reporting units. Key inputs used in the discounted cash flow approach include growth rates for sales and operating profit, perpetuity growth assumptions, and discount rates. Key inputs used in the guideline public company and guideline transaction methods include EBITDA valuation multiples of comparable companies and transactions. If interest rates rise or EBITDA valuation multiples of comparable companies and transactions decline, the calculated fair values of our reporting units will decrease, which could impact the results of our goodwill impairment tests.

We will perform our annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment as of October 31, 2024, with such analysis expected to be finalized during the fourth quarter. As part of our annual process of updating our goodwill impairment evaluation, we will assess the impact of current operating results and our resulting management actions to determine whether they have an impact on the long-term valuation of reporting units and the related recoverability of our goodwill.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2024, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Contractual Obligations

See the disclosure under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Contractual Obligations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2023. There were no material changes to our contractual obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
