Echo Global Logistics Reports Record Second Quarter Results; Revenue up 22% Year Over Year
CHICAGO, IL — (Marketwired) — 8/5/15 — Echo Global Logistics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ECHO) (“Echo” or the “Company”), a leading provider of technology-enabled transportation management services, reported today financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
“Echo continued to deliver strong results in a quarter where we closed the transformational acquisition of Command Transportation, drove strong organic growth in a softer market, and expanded our net revenue margins while significantly increasing our truckload business,” said Doug Waggoner, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Echo. “Even more powerful is our prospect for future growth, as we have successfully kicked off our integration with Command, which will dramatically improve our truckload brokerage capabilities through a substantial increase in capacity and network density.”
Q2 2015 Highlights
· Total revenue increased by 22% to $372 million from the second quarter of 2014
· Truckload volume increased by 42% from the second quarter of 2014
· Total net revenue increased by 30% to $70 million from the second quarter of 2014(1)(3)
· Non-GAAP EBITDA increased by 30% to $16.8 million from the second quarter of 2014(2)(3)
(1) Non-GAAP financial measure calculated as total revenue less transportation costs.
(2) Excludes the effects of changes in contingent consideration payable, depreciation/amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, other expense, stock compensation, interest expense and income taxes.
(3) For a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest comparable GAAP financial measure, see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Acquisition of Command Transportation
On June 1, 2015, the Company announced the completion of its acquisition of Command Transportation, LLC (“Command”). In addition, Paul Loeb was appointed to the Echo Board of Directors, expanding the Board to seven directors.
“We continue to believe the integration of Command will create significant value and our management teams are working very closely together as we have begun to combine operations in advance of technology integration where appropriate,” said Mr. Waggoner. “We remain very excited about the power of the Command TL application when combined with the LTL and Managed Transportation capabilities of Echo. The quality of the individuals on the Command team, our experience with our 19 prior acquisitions, and the similarity of our respective business models, is positioning us to fully and effectively integrate our business to create a powerful market competitor.”
2015 Full Year Guidance and Long Term Targets
“In light of the Command acquisition, we are updating guidance and expect full year 2015 revenue to be in the range of $1.525 billion to $1.575 billion,” said Kyle Sauers, Chief Financial Officer of Echo. “At the same time, we are increasing our long-term targets to $3 billion in revenue and non-GAAP EBITDA of $150 million for 2018.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes the following financial measures defined as “Non-GAAP financial measures” by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”): Total Net Revenue, Non-GAAP Operating Expenses, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Operating Income, Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Fully Diluted EPS. Total net revenue is calculated as total revenue less transportation costs. Non-GAAP Operating expenses describe operating expenses excluding the effects of changes in contingent consideration payable, depreciation/amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs and stock compensation. Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin describe net income and operating margin excluding the effects of changes in contingent consideration payable,
depreciation/amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, stock compensation, interest expense and income taxes. Non-GAAP Net Income describes net income excluding changes in contingent consideration payable, amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, stock compensation expense, non-cash interest expense and Term Loan B commitment fees, net of their related tax impact. Non-GAAP Fully Diluted EPS describes fully diluted EPS excluding changes in contingent consideration payable, amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, non-cash interest expense, Term Loan B commitment fees, stock compensation expense and their related tax impacts. We believe such measures provide useful information to investors because they provide information about the financial performance of the Company’s ongoing business.
Total Net Revenue, Non-GAAP operating expenses, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Operating Income, Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Net Income, and Non-GAAP Fully Diluted EPS are used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and evaluation of overall operating performance. These measures may be different from similar measures used by other companies. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest comparable GAAP financial measure, see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included in this release.
