Hub Group, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2011 Earnings
 
DOWNERS GROVE, IL, July 27, 2011, -- Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HUBG) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

“We had a solid quarter with a 66% increase in revenue that came from organic growth and our acquisition.  We are executing well against our strategic priorities which resulted in 50% growth in EPS,” said David P. Yeager, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Hub Group reported income of $14.4 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011, an increase of 49% compared to the second quarter of 2010.  Hub Group’s diluted earnings per share was $0.39 for the second quarter of 2011, which represents an increase of 50% when compared with the prior year period.

Hub Group acquired Exel Transportation Services, renamed Mode Transportation, on April 1, 2011.  Hub Group will now report two distinct business segments: Hub and Mode.  The Mode segment includes only the newly acquired business.  The Hub segment includes all Hub Group business excluding Mode.

The Hub segment’s revenue increased 22% to $560 million.  Second quarter intermodal revenue increased 24% to $396 million.  The increase was attributable to a 12% volume increase and a 12% increase for fuel, price and mix.  Truck brokerage revenue increased 4% to $90 million this quarter.  Second quarter Unyson Logistics revenue increased 45% to $74 million.  Hub’s operating income increased $6.9 million, which represents an increase of 44% when compared with the prior year period.  The Hub results include approximately $400,000 of severance related primarily to truck brokerage operations.
