ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER

AND YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013

Tontitown, Arkansas, February 5, 2014......P.A.M. Transportation Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTSI) today reported net income of $1,295,393 or diluted and basic earnings per share of $0.15 for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, and net income of $5,914,814 or diluted and basic earnings per share of $0.68 for the year ended December 31, 2013. These results compare to net loss of $311,010 or diluted and basic loss per share of $0.04 for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, and net income of $2,178,881 or diluted and basic earnings per share of $0.25 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Operating revenues were $96,545,594 for the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to $95,772,668 for the fourth quarter of 2012. Operating revenues were $402,813,020 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a 5.8% increase compared to $380,632,762 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Daniel H. Cushman, President of the Company, commented, “For the third quarter in a row, we have posted double-digit gains in our quarterly year over year earnings per share performance which resulted in a 172% increase in total year over year earnings per share. The fourth quarter of this year reflected a significant swing from a net loss of $0.04 per share to net income of $0.15 per share, resulting in a year over year improvement of $0.19 in earnings per share for the fourth quarter. While the fourth quarter results are satisfying, momentum slowed during December due to multiple unfavorable weather related events and a slow final week of the year. We certainly had challenges this December but October and November performance was strong enough to allow us to finish the quarter with a $2.1 million operating profit. Last year, even though we had operating profits in October and November, these profits were not large enough to make up for a weak December.

“We are pleased not only with our final results for 2013 but also in the consistency of those results. In 2012, we had an operating profit in every month except December and while those results were a significant improvement compared to our previous four year history, we were not satisfied that our monthly profits were just marginal. During 2013, we experienced 8 months that exceeded our best month during 2012 and our results reflected consistent improvement from month to month.

“We believe a large part of our success is that we continue to focus on the things we do best. We are a premiere transportation service provider to the automotive industry and we continue to grow in the other service areas where we feel we are “best in class” such as in our Dedicated, Mexico, and Expedited divisions. Like most carriers, we continue to face significant challenges in our random fleet. However, we continue to look for opportunities to make the random fleet “less random” by building and maintaining linked geographical tours. We have experienced some sluggishness with our Supply Chain Solution division but believe potential remains for growth and increased profits.”
