XPO Logistics, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 and 2015
(Unaudited)

1. Organization
Nature of Business
XPO Logistics, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("XPO" or the "Company") provide comprehensive supply chain solutions to its customers, which are multinational, national, mid-size and small enterprises, and include many of the most prominent companies in the world. XPO runs its business on a global basis, with two reportable segments: Transportation and Logistics.
In the Transportation segment, the Company provides multiple services to facilitate the movement of raw materials, parts and finished goods. The Company accomplishes this by using its proprietary transportation management technology, third-party carriers and Company-owned trucks. XPO’s transportation services include: freight brokerage, last mile, expedite, intermodal, less-than-truckload ("LTL"), full truckload, managed transportation and global forwarding services. Freight brokerage, last mile, expedite, intermodal, managed transportation and global forwarding are all non-asset or asset-light businesses. LTL and full truckload are asset-based.
In the Logistics segment, referred to as supply chain, the Company provides a range of contract logistics services, including highly engineered and customized solutions, value-added warehousing and distribution, and other inventory solutions. The Company performs e-commerce fulfillment, reverse logistics, storage, factory support, aftermarket support, integrated manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution and transportation. In addition, the Company utilizes technology and expertise to solve complex supply chain challenges and create transformative solutions for world-class customers, while reducing their operating costs and improving production flow management.
Substantially all of the Company’s businesses operate as the single global brand of XPO Logistics. Under the Company’s cross-selling initiative, all services are offered to all customers to fulfill their supply chain requirements, and multiple services are often combined into an optimal solution.
For specific financial information relating to the above segments, refer to Note 15—Segment Reporting.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, significant accounting policies and other disclosures normally provided have been reduced or omitted. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information, but actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Where the presentation of these intercompany eliminations differs between the consolidated and reportable segment financial statements, reconciliations of certain line items are provided. The results of operations of acquired companies are included in the Company’s results from the closing date of the acquisition and forward. Income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests is deducted from net income/loss to determine net income/loss attributable to common shareholders.

Intangible Assets with Definite Lives
The Company’s intangible assets subject to amortization consist of customer relationships, trade names, non-compete agreements, and other intangibles. Customer relationships are amortized on an accelerated basis over the period of economic benefit based on the estimated cash flows attributable to the related intangible asset or on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the related intangible asset. Trade names are amortized on an accelerated basis over the period of economic benefit based on the estimated cash flows attributable to the related intangible assets. Non-compete agreements and other intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related intangible asset. The range of estimated useful lives and the weighted-average useful lives of the respective intangible assets by type are as follows:
Classification
Estimated Useful Life
Weighted-Average Amortization Period
Customer relationships
1.5 to 16 years

Fair Value Measurements
FASB ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and
Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, generally utilizing pricing models or other valuation techniques that reflect management’s judgment and estimates.
The aggregate net fair value estimates are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management. The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments approximated their fair values as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current maturities of long-term debt. Fair values approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short-term in nature and are receivable or payable on demand. The fair value of the asset financing arrangements ("Asset Financing") approximates carrying value since the debt is primarily issued at a floating rate, may be prepaid any time at par without penalty and the remaining life is short-term in nature.
Cash equivalents consist of short-term interest-bearing instruments (primarily commercial paper, certificates of deposit and money market funds) with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase. The carrying amounts for money market funds are a reasonable estimate of fair value and quoted market prices are available, and accordingly, are classified as Level 1 instruments. Commercial paper and certificates of deposit are generally valued using published interest rates for instruments with similar terms and maturities, and accordingly, are classified as Level 2 instruments. The fair value of the Company's Senior Notes due 2022, Senior Notes due 2019, Senior Notes due 2018 (collectively described as the “Senior Notes” when referring to the Senior Notes due 2018, Senior Notes due 2019, Senior Notes due 2021, and Senior Notes due 2022), Senior Debentures due 2034 (the “Senior Debentures”), and the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due October 1, 2017 (the “Convertible Notes”) was estimated using quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets. The fair value of the Company's Term Loan Facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), Senior Notes due 2021 and Euro private placement notes due 2020 (the “Euro Private Placement Notes”) was estimated using inputs that are readily available market inputs for long-term debt with similar terms and maturities. The Company's derivative instruments include over-the-counter derivatives that are primarily valued using models that rely on observable market inputs, such as currency exchange rates and yield curves. For additional information refer to Note 12—Derivative Instruments.

New Accounting Standards
In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-07, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): "Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)." This ASU removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient. This ASU is effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company's adoption of this standard in the first quarter of 2016 had no material impact to the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): "Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments," which simplifies how adjustments are made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination during the measurement period. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2016. See Note 3 - Acquisitions for the current-quarter impact.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): "Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)," which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the standard and the impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): "Improvements to Employee Share-based Payment Accounting," which involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Under the new standard, income tax benefits and deficiencies are to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement and the tax effects of exercised or vested awards should be treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. An entity should also recognize excess tax benefits regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. Excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity. In regards to forfeitures, the entity may make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 including interim periods within that reporting period, however early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the standard and the impacts, if any, on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
3. Acquisitions
2015 Acquisitions
Con-way Inc.
On September 9, 2015, XPO entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Con-way Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Con-way"), and Canada Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of XPO ("Merger Subsidiary"). Headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Con-way was a Fortune 500 company with a transportation and logistics network of 582 locations and approximately 30,000 employees serving over 36,000 customers.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, XPO caused Merger Subsidiary to commence a cash tender offer (the "Offer") for all of Con-way's outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.625 per share (the "Shares"), at a purchase price of $47.60 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any applicable withholding taxes. The Offer and withdrawal rights expired on October 30, 2015. A total of 46,150,072 Shares were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as of the expiration date, representing approximately 81.1% of the outstanding Shares. In addition, Notices of Guaranteed Delivery were delivered for 1,793,225 Shares, representing approximately 3.2% of the outstanding Shares. The number of Shares tendered satisfied the minimum condition, and all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer were accepted for payment. The fair value of the total consideration paid in the Offer and Merger Agreement was $2,317.8 million, net of cash acquired of $437.3 million, consisting of $2,706.6 million of cash paid at the time of closing for the purchase of all of Con-way’s outstanding shares of common stock, $17.6 million representing the portion of replacement equity awards attributable to pre-acquisition service, and a $30.9 million liability for the settlement of certain Con-way stock-based compensation awards.
On October 30, 2015, following its acceptance of the tendered shares, XPO completed its acquisition of Con-way pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. Merger Subsidiary merged with and into Con-way, with Con-way continuing as the surviving corporation as a wholly owned subsidiary of XPO. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time was converted into the right to receive the purchase price other than Shares owned by (i) Con-way, XPO or Merger Subsidiary, which Shares have been canceled and cease to exist, (ii) any subsidiary of Con-way or XPO (other than Merger Subsidiary), which Shares have been converted into shares of common stock of the surviving corporation, or (iii) stockholders who validly exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law with respect to such Shares. All Con-way shares not validly tendered into the Offer have been canceled and converted into the right to receive the same $47.60 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any applicable withholding taxes, as was paid for all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Offer. Con-way shares have ceased trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
At the effective time (as specified in the Merger Agreement, the "Effective Time"), each Con-way stock option and stock appreciation right, whether vested or unvested, was converted into an option to purchase shares of XPO common stock or a stock appreciation right in respect of XPO common stock, as applicable, with the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such stock option or stock appreciation right immediately prior to the Effective Time, with the number of shares of XPO common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares) subject to such stock option or stock appreciation right equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares underlying such stock option or stock appreciation right immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing the per share merger consideration by the volume-weighted average trading price of XPO common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the five consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the closing date (the "Equity Award Conversion Amount"), and with the exercise price applicable to such stock option or stock appreciation right to equal the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (a) the exercise price per Share applicable to such stock option or stock appreciation right immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (b) the Equity Award Conversion Amount.

As of March 31, 2016, the purchase price allocation is preliminary and is based on information that is available to management at the time the consolidated financial statements were prepared. The most significant open items include the fair value of property and equipment, favorable and unfavorable leasehold assets and liabilities, definite-lived intangible assets, assumed liabilities and taxes. Based on a preliminary allocation, $1,025.7 million of the goodwill relates to the Transportation reportable segment and $281.2 million of the goodwill relates to the Logistics reportable segment. The goodwill as a result of the acquisition is not deductible for income tax purposes.
During the first quarter of 2016, management updated their assumptions in the measurement of fair value for property and
equipment and customer relationships. The effect of this change was a $5.8 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expense recorded during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 which related to the three-month period ended December 31, 2015.
Norbert Dentressangle SA
On April 28, 2015, XPO entered into (1) a Share Purchase Agreement (the "Share Purchase Agreement") relating to Norbert Dentressangle SA ("ND"), a French société anonyme, among Dentressangle Initiatives, a French société par actions simplifiée, Mr. Norbert Dentressangle, Mrs. Evelyne Dentressangle, Mr. Pierre-Henri Dentressangle, Ms. Marine Dentressangle and XPO and (2) a Tender Offer Agreement (the "Tender Offer Agreement" and, together with the Share Purchase Agreement, the "ND Transaction Agreements") between XPO and ND. The ND Transaction Agreements provided for the acquisition of a majority stake in ND by XPO, followed by an all-cash simplified tender offer by XPO to acquire the remaining outstanding shares.
On June 8, 2015, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Share Purchase Agreement, Dentressangle Initiatives, Mr. Norbert Dentressangle, Mrs. Evelyne Dentressangle, Mr. Pierre-Henri Dentressangle and Ms. Marine Dentressangle (collectively, the "Sellers") sold to XPO and XPO purchased from the Sellers (the "Share Purchase"), all of the

11


ordinary shares of ND owned by the Sellers, representing a total of approximately 67% of the share capital of ND and all of the outstanding share subscription warrants granted by ND to employees, directors or other officers of ND and its affiliates. Total cash consideration paid for the majority interest in the share capital of ND and settlement of the warrants was €1,437.0 million, or $1,603.9 million, excluding acquired debt. Consideration included only the portion of the fair value of the warrants attributable to service performed prior to the acquisition date. The remaining balance was recorded as compensation expense in the post-combination period. In conjunction with the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to settle certain performance stock awards of ND. Similar to the warrants, the consideration of €11.8 million, or $13.2 million, included only the portion of the fair value attributable to service performed prior to the acquisition date with the balance recorded as compensation expense in the post-combination period. The performance share settlement will be paid in cash with 50% of the awards paid 18 months from the acquisition date and the remaining 50% paid in 36 months. Further, as a result of the acquisition, the Company repaid certain indebtedness and related interest rate swap liabilities of ND totaling €628.5 million, or $705.0 million.
On June 11, 2015, XPO filed with the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (the "AMF") a mandatory simplified cash offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase all of the outstanding ordinary shares of ND (other than the shares already owned by XPO) at a price of €217.50 per share. On June 23, 2015, the Company received the necessary approval from the AMF to launch the Tender Offer and the Tender Offer was launched on June 25, 2015. The Tender Offer remained open for a period of 16 trading days. As of March 31, 2016, the Company purchased 1,921,553 shares under the Tender Offer and acquired a total of approximately 86.25% of the share capital of ND. The total fair value of the consideration provided for the noncontrolling interest in ND at the acquisition date is €702.5 million, or $784.2 million, which is based on the quoted market price of ND shares on the acquisition date. Total consideration is summarized in the table below in Euros ("EUR") and USD:

As of March 31, 2016, the most significant open items related to the purchase price allocation include the fair value of property and equipment, favorable and unfavorable leasehold assets and liabilities, definite-lived intangible assets, assumed liabilities and taxes. Based on a preliminary allocation, $961.9 million of the goodwill relates to the Transportation reportable segment and $1,497.5 million of the goodwill relates to the Logistics reportable segment. The goodwill as a result of the acquisition is not deductible for local country income tax purposes. The Company allocated the purchase price from its acquisition of ND down to the legal entities resulting in deferred tax assets and liabilities which on a jurisdictional basis have been netted. The jurisdictional netting resulted in a reduction of both deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities of $116.0 million during the first quarter of 2016, and had no impact on goodwill.
Bridge Terminal Transport Services, Inc.
On May 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with BTTS Holding Corporation to acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of Bridge Terminal Transport Services, Inc. ("BTT"), a leading asset-light drayage provider in the United States. The closing of the transaction was effective on June 1, 2015. The fair value of the total consideration paid under the BTT Stock Purchase Agreement was $103.8 million and consisted of $103.1 million of cash paid at the time of closing, including an estimate of the working capital adjustment, and $0.7 million of equity.
The BTT acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805 "Business Combinations." Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of June 1, 2015, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $57.0 million and definite-lived intangible assets of $30.0 million. All goodwill relates to the Transportation reportable segment and is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of March 31, 2016, the purchase price allocation is considered final, except for the fair value of taxes and assumed liabilities.
UX Specialized Logistics
On February 9, 2015, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Earlybird Delivery Systems, LLC to acquire certain assets of UX Specialized Logistics, LLC ("UX"). The fair value of the total consideration paid under the UX Asset Purchase Agreement was $58.9 million and consisted of $58.1 million of cash paid at the time of closing, including an

13


estimate of the working capital adjustment, and $0.8 million of equity. UX provided last mile logistics and same day delivery services for major retail chains and e-commerce companies. 
The UX acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805 "Business Combinations." Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of February 9, 2015, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $38.1 million and definite-lived intangible assets of $18.8 million. All goodwill relates to the Transportation reportable segment and is fully deductible for income tax purposes. As of March 31, 2016, the purchase price allocation is considered final.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results for the three-month period were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and are based on the historical financial information of Con-way, ND and the Company. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results incorporate historical financial information for all significant acquisitions pursuant to SEC regulations since January 1, 2015. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma adjustments that are: (i) directly attributable to the acquisition, (ii) factually supportable and (iii) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results are not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s consolidated results of operations actually would have been had it completed these acquisitions on January 1, 2015.
4. Restructuring Charges
In conjunction with various acquisitions, the Company has initiated facility rationalization and severance programs to close facilities and reduce employment in order to improve efficiency and profitability or adjust for the loss of certain business. The programs include facility exit activities and employment reduction initiatives.
The amount of restructuring charges incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, and included in the Company's consolidated statement of operations as sales, general and administrative expense, direct operating expense, and cost of transportation and services, is summarized below.

5. Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is involved, and will continue to be involved, in numerous legal proceedings arising out of the conduct of its business. These proceedings may include, among other matters, claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with the transportation of freight, claims regarding anti-competitive practices, and employment-related claims, including claims involving asserted breaches of employee restrictive covenants and tortious interference with contract. These proceedings also include numerous purported class-action lawsuits, multi-plaintiff and individual lawsuits and state tax and other administrative proceedings that claim either that the Company’s owner operators or contract carriers should be treated as employees, rather than independent contractors, or that certain of the Company's drivers were not paid for all compensable time or were not provided with required meal or rest breaks. These lawsuits and proceedings may seek substantial monetary damages (including claims for unpaid wages, overtime, failure to provide meal and rest periods, unreimbursed business expenses and other items), injunctive relief, or both.
The Company establishes accruals for specific legal proceedings when it is considered probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Accruals for loss contingencies are reviewed quarterly and adjusted as additional information becomes available. In connection with certain acquisitions of privately-held businesses, the Company has retained purchase price holdbacks or escrows to provide security for a negotiated duration with respect to damages incurred in connection with pre-acquisition claims and litigation matters. If a loss is not both probable and reasonably estimable, or if an exposure to loss exists in excess of the amount accrued therefor or the applicable purchase price holdback or escrow, the Company assesses whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred. If there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred, the Company discloses the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss if it is material and an estimate can be made, or states that such an estimate cannot be made. The evaluation as to whether a loss is reasonably possible or probable is based on the Company’s assessment, in conjunction with legal counsel, regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter.
The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for, or has adequate purchase price holdbacks or escrows with respect to, the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any matters to which the Company is presently party will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Legal costs incurred related to these matters are expensed as incurred.
The Company carries liability and excess umbrella insurance policies that it deems sufficient to cover potential legal claims arising in the normal course of conducting its operations as a transportation company. The liability and excess umbrella insurance policies do not cover the misclassification claims described in this Note. In the event the Company is required to satisfy a legal claim outside the scope of the coverage provided by insurance, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be negatively impacted.
Intermodal Drayage Classification Claims
Certain of the Company’s intermodal drayage subsidiaries received notices from the California Labor Commissioner, Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (the "DLSE"), that a total of approximately 150 owner operators contracted with these subsidiaries filed claims in 2012 with the DLSE in which they assert that they should be classified as employees, rather than independent contractors. These claims seek reimbursement for the owner operators’ business expenses, including fuel, tractor maintenance and tractor lease payments. After a decision was rendered by a DLSE hearing officer in seven of these claims, in 2014, the Company appealed the decision to California Superior Court, San Diego, where a de novo trial was held on the merits of those claims. On July 17, 2015, the court issued a final statement of decision finding that the seven claimants were employees rather than independent contractors, and awarding an aggregate of $2.9 million plus post-judgment interest and attorneys' fees to the claimants. The Company appealed this judgment, but cannot provide assurance that such appeal will be successful. The remaining DLSE claims (the "Pending DLSE Claims") have been transferred to California Superior Court in three separate actions involving approximately 200 claimants, including the approximately 150 claimants mentioned above. These matters are in the initial procedural stages. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable relating to the Pending DLSE Claims. The Company is unable at this time to estimate the amount of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, in excess of its accrued liability that it may incur as a result of the Pending DLSE Claims.
One of these intermodal drayage subsidiaries also is a party to a putative class action litigation (Manuela Ruelas Mendoza v. Pacer Cartage, Inc.) brought by Edwin Molina on August 19, 2013 and currently pending in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of California. Mr. Molina asserts that he should be classified as an employee, rather than an independent contractor, and seeks damages for alleged violation of various California wage and hour laws. Mr. Molina seeks to have the litigation certified

15


as a class action involving all owner-operators contracted with this subsidiary at any time from August 2009 to the present, which could involve as many as 625 claimants. Certain of these potential claimants also may have Pending DLSE Claims. The Company has reached an agreement to settle this litigation with the claimant. The settlement agreement has been conditionally approved by the court but remains subject to acceptance by a minimum percentage of members of the purported class. There can be no assurance that the settlement agreement will be accepted by the requisite percentage of members of the purported class. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable relating to these claims.
Another of the Company’s intermodal drayage subsidiaries is a party to a putative class action litigation (C. Arevalo v. XPO Port Services, Inc.) brought by Carlos Arevalo in the Superior Court for the State of California, County of Los Angeles Central District filed in August 2015. Mr. Arevalo asserts that he should be classified as an employee, rather than an independent contractor, and seeks damages for alleged violation of various California wage and hour laws. Mr. Arevalo seeks to have the litigation certified as a class action involving all owner-operators contracted with this subsidiary at any time from August 2011 to the present. Certain of these potential claimants also may have Pending DLSE Claims. This matter is in the initial pleading stage and the court has not yet determined whether to certify the matter as a class action. The Company is unable at this time to estimate the amount of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, that it may incur as a result of this matter.
Last Mile Logistics Classification Claims
Certain of the Company’s last mile logistics subsidiaries are party to several putative class action litigations brought by independent contract carriers contracted with these subsidiaries in which the contract carriers assert that they should be classified as employees, rather than independent contractors. The particular claims asserted vary from case to case, but the claims generally allege unpaid wages, unpaid overtime, or failure to provide meal and rest periods, and seek reimbursement of the contract carriers’ business expenses. Putative class actions against the Company’s subsidiaries are pending in California (Fernando Ruiz v. Affinity Logistics Corp., filed in May 2005, currently in the Federal District Court, Southern District of California; and Ron Carter, Juan Estrada, Jerry Green, Burl Malmgren, Bill McDonald and Joel Morales v. XPO Logistics, Inc., filed in March 2016 in the Federal District Court, Northern District of California), New Jersey (Leonardo Alegre v. Atlantic Central Logistics, Simply Logistics, Inc., filed in March 2015 in the Federal District Court, New Jersey), Pennsylvania (Victor Reyes v. XPO Logistics, Inc., filed in May 2015 in the U.S. District Court, Pennsylvania) and Connecticut (Carlos Taveras v. XPO Last Mile, Inc., filed in November 2015 in the Federal District Court, Connecticut). The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for the potential impact of loss contingencies relating to the foregoing claims that are probable and reasonably estimable. The Company is unable at this time to estimate the amount of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, in excess of its accrued liability that it may incur as a result of these claims.
During the first quarter of 2016, the Company completed the settlement of multi-plaintiff actions in Massachusetts (Celso Martins, Alexandre Rocha, and Calvin Anderson v. 3PD, Inc. filed in July 2011 in Massachusetts State Court) and Illinois (Marvin Brandon, Rafael Aguilera, and Aldo Mendez-Etzig v. 3PD, Inc. filed in May 2013 in the Federal District Court, Northern District of Illinois).
Last Mile TCPA Claims
The Company is a party to a putative class action litigation (Leung v. XPO Logistics, Inc., filed in May 2015 in the U.S. District Court, Illinois) alleging violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") related to an automated customer call system used by a last mile logistics business that the Company acquired. The Company has asserted indemnity rights pursuant to the agreement by which it acquired this business, subject to certain limits. This matter is in the initial pleading stage and the court has not yet determined whether to certify the matter as a class action. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable relating to this matter. The Company is unable at this time to estimate the amount of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, in excess of its accrued liability that it may incur as a result of this matter.
Less-Than-Truckload Meal Break Claims
The Company’s LTL subsidiary is a party to several class action litigations alleging violations of the state of California's wage and hour laws. Plaintiffs allege failure to provide drivers with required meal breaks and rest breaks. Plaintiffs seek to recover unspecified monetary damages, penalties, interest and attorneys’ fees. The primary case is Jose Alberto Fonseca Pina, et al. v. Con-way Freight Inc., et al. (the "Pina case"). The Pina case was initially filed in November 2009 in Monterey County Superior Court and was removed to the U.S. District Court of California, Northern District. The Company has reached a tentative agreement to settle the Pina case, subject to execution of a settlement agreement, court approval and acceptance by a minimum percentage of members of the purported class. There can be no assurance that the settlement agreement will be finalized and executed, that the court will approve any such settlement agreement or that it will be accepted by the requisite percentage of members of the purported class. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for the potential impact of

loss contingencies relating to the Pina case. The Company is unable at this time to estimate the amount of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, in excess of its accrued liability that it may incur as a result of these claims.
Con-way Acquisition Litigation
On October 7, 2015, a purported stockholder of Con-way filed a putative class action complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery, captioned Abrams v. Espe, et al., C.A. No. 11585-VCN. The complaint named the members of the board of directors of Con-way, XPO and an affiliate, and Citigroup Inc., financial advisor to Con-way in connection with the proposed acquisition, as defendants. The complaint alleged that the directors breached their fiduciary duties by, among other things, failing to maximize shareholder value in connection with the proposed transaction and failing to disclose certain information in the Schedule 14D-9 of Con-way relating to the proposed acquisition. The complaint also alleged that the other defendants aided and abetted those alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. The lawsuit sought, among other relief, a preliminary injunction, rescissory damages and recovery of the costs of the action, including reasonable attorneys' and experts' fees. On February 24, 2016, the plaintiff filed a Stipulation and Proposed Order requesting dismissal of the action, and further noting their intent to submit an application for an award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses. On February 24, 2016, the Delaware court granted the Order, retaining jurisdiction solely for the purpose of determining plaintiff’s counsel’s application for an award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses. The Company has agreed to pay fees and expenses of plaintiff’s counsel, and plaintiff’s counsel has agreed not to make any application to the Court for additional attorneys’ fees and expenses. This fee has not been in any way approved or ruled upon by the Court of Chancery.
XPO Logistics Worldwide Government Services Investigation
On June 11, 2014, XPO Logistics Worldwide Government Services, LLC, formerly known as Menlo Worldwide Government Services, LLC ("Government Services"), a subsidiary of the contract logistics business that the Company acquired through the Con-way transaction, received a subpoena duces tecum from the U.S. Department of Defense Inspector General requesting records relating to an investigation into compliance with the terms and conditions of its contractual arrangements with the United States Transportation Command (the "DTCI Contract") for work performed prior to the acquisition of Government Services by the Company. Government Services received a follow-on Civil Investigative Demand from the U.S. Department of Justice dated September 30, 2015, related to the same or related matters. On April 23, 2016, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the United States Department of Justice regarding the foregoing investigation. The settlement fully resolves disputed charges under the DTCI Contract, and all related claims have been dismissed with prejudice, waived and released. The Company denied that any wrongdoing occurred.

The total cash received from options exercised was $1.9 million and $0.1 million during the three-month periods ending March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Stock Appreciation Rights
In connection with the Con-way transaction, the Company assumed all stock appreciation rights ("SARs") held by Con-way employees. Each SAR was converted into an equivalent number of SARs with the same terms and conditions as were applicable prior to the acquisition. All converted SARs were fully vested as of the acquisition date. The SARs are liability-classified awards, and as a result, the Company re-measures the fair value of the awards each reporting period until the awards are settled. The Company recognizes any changes in fair value as compensation cost in the current period. The ultimate expense recognized for the SARs is equal to the intrinsic value at settlement. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had recognized accrued liabilities for cash-settled SARs of $2.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, using a weighted-average fair value per SAR of $16.55 and $13.45, respectively.

Cash-settled Performance-based Restricted Stock Units
In February 2016, the Company entered into Employment Agreements (the "Agreements") with certain executive officers. The Agreements provide for cash-settled PRSU grants under the XPO Logistics Inc. Amended and Restated 2011 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan to each of the executive officers effective February 9, 2016. Twenty-five percent of the PRSUs vest and are settled in cash on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant, subject to the officer's continued employment through the applicable anniversary and achievement of certain performance targets for each tranche. Cash-settled PRSU awards are measured at fair value initially based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant and are required to be re-measured to fair value at each reporting date until settlement. Compensation expense for cash-settled PRSUs is recognized over the applicable performance periods based on the probability of achievement of the performance conditions and the closing price of the Company’s common stock at each balance sheet date. The cost of a probable cash-settled PRSU award is recorded as a liability until settled. At March 31, 2016, the Company had recognized accrued liabilities for cash-settled PRSUs of $4.8 million using a weighted-average fair value per PRSU of $30.70.

11. Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $15.7 million yielding an effective tax rate of 44.9%. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 35% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to an increase in valuation allowances established on state and foreign net operating losses where is it more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be utilized, non-deductible transaction costs and the mix of income among the jurisdictions in which the Company does business with statutory tax rates that differ from the U.S. rate.
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $13.6 million yielding an effective tax rate of 48.1%. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 35% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 primarily due to the non-taxable nature of a holdback liability release related to the initial acquisition of the

21


Company's last mile logistics platform, a change in estimate of realization on prior tax positions, and the change in the mix or income among the jurisdictions in which the Company does business.
The Company had valuation allowances of approximately $71.1 million and $67.6 million as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, on the deferred tax assets generated for federal, state and foreign net operating losses where it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be utilized. There is no portion of these valuation allowances representing activity reported in other comprehensive income as of March 31, 2016 or December 31, 2015. In evaluating the Company’s ability to realize its deferred income tax assets, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including operating results, ongoing tax planning, and the reversal of deferred tax liabilities on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis.
In general, it is the practice and intention of the Company to reinvest the earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations. As of March 31, 2016, the Company has not made a provision for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes for financial reporting over the tax basis of investments in foreign subsidiaries that the Company considers to be indefinitely reinvested, if any exists, except on those earnings that are subject to U.S. tax without regard to whether those earnings are actually distributed. Generally, such amounts become subject to U.S. taxation upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of unrecorded deferred tax liability related to investments in these foreign subsidiaries.
12. Derivative Instruments
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to certain risks arising from business operations and economic factors, including fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currencies. To manage the volatility related to exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currencies, the Company uses derivative instruments. The objective of the derivative instruments is to reduce fluctuations in earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency rates and interest rates. These financial instruments are not used for trading or other speculative purposes. The Company has not historically incurred, and does not expect to incur in the future, any losses as a result of counterparty default.
The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes linking cash flow hedges to specific forecasted transactions or variability of cash flow to be paid. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the designated derivative instruments that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flow of hedged items. When a derivative instrument is determined not to be highly effective as a hedge or the underlying hedged transaction is no longer probable, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively.
The following table presents the location on the consolidated balance sheets in which the Company’s derivative and nonderivative instruments have been recognized, the fair value hierarchy level applicable to each type of derivative and nonderivative instrument, and the related notional amounts and fair values as of March 31, 2016:

Hedge of Net Investments in Foreign Operations
In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes due 2022, the Company entered into certain cross-currency swap agreements to manage the related foreign currency exchange risk by effectively converting a portion of the fixed-rate USD-denominated Senior Notes due 2022, including the semi-annual interest payments, to fixed-rate, EUR-denominated debt. The risk management objective is to manage foreign currency risk relating to net investments in subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies and reduce the variability in the functional currency equivalent cash flows of a portion of the Senior Notes due 2022. During the term of the swap contracts, the Company will receive semi-annual interest payments in June and December of each year from the counterparties based on USD fixed interest rates, and the Company will make semi-annual interest payments in June and December of each year to the counterparties based on EUR fixed interest rates. At maturity, the Company will repay the original principal amount in EUR and receive the principal amount in USD. The Company has designated the cross-currency swap agreements as qualifying hedging instruments and is accounting for these as net investment hedges. The gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments to the cross-currency swap agreements are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent that the cross-currency swaps are effective in hedging the designated risk. The Company did not record any ineffectiveness for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. Cash flows related to the cross-currency swaps are included in operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company does not expect amounts that are currently deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income to be reclassified to income over the next 12 months. The Company did not have cross-currency swap agreements in the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.
In addition to the cross-currency swaps, the Company uses foreign currency denominated notes as nonderivative hedging instruments of its net investments in foreign operations. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company designated $37.6 million of its Senior Notes due 2021 included in long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets as a net investment hedge of its investments in international subsidiaries that use the EUR as their functional currency. The gains and losses resulting from the exchange rate adjustments to the designated portion of the foreign currency denominated notes are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent that the foreign currency denominated notes are effective in hedging the designated risk. The Company did not record any ineffectiveness for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. The Company does not expect amounts that are currently deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income to be reclassified to income over the next 12 months. The Company did not have foreign currency denominated notes in the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.
Interest Rate Hedging
In order to mitigate variability in forecasted interest payments on the Company’s EUR-denominated asset financings that are based on benchmark interest rates (e.g., Euribor), the Company has entered into interest rate swaps. The objective is for the cash flows of the interest rate swaps to offset any changes in cash flows of the forecasted interest payments attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate. The interest rate swaps convert floating rate interest payments into fixed rate interest payments. The Company has designated the interest rate swaps as qualifying hedging instruments and is accounting for these as cash flow hedges of the forecasted obligations. The gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments to the interest rate swaps are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent that the interest rate swaps are effective in

23


hedging the designated risk. The gains and losses will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense on the dates that interest payments accrue, or when the hedged item becomes probable not to occur. The Company is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted interest payments through December 2017. At March 31, 2016, a notional amount of $68.3 million of the Company's interest rate swaps are classified as derivatives not designated as hedges. Cash flows related to the interest rate swaps are included in operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company expects an inconsequential amount that is currently deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income to be reclassified to income during the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company did not have interest rate swaps in the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.
Foreign Currency Option and Forward Contracts
In order to mitigate against the risk of a reduction in the value of foreign currency earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") from the Company’s international operations with the EUR and GBP as the functional currency, the Company uses foreign currency option and forward contracts. The foreign currency contracts are not designated as qualifying hedging instruments as of March 31, 2016. The contracts are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and other identified risks. The contracts expire in 12 months or less. Gains or losses on the contracts are recorded in other expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Cash flows related to the foreign currency contracts are included in operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The risk of loss associated with the option contracts is limited to the premium amounts payable. The Company did not have foreign currency option or forward contracts in the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.
13. Variable Interest Entities and Joint Ventures
The Company consolidates variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and certain joint ventures ("JVs") because it has the power to direct the activities that significantly affect the VIEs' and JVs' economic performance, including having operational control over each VIE and JV and operating the VIEs under the XPO brand. The VIEs and JVs provide logistics services for their customers. Investors in these entities only have recourse to the assets owned by the entity and not to the Company’s general credit. The Company does not have implicit support arrangements with any VIE. Assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs and JVs is outlined in the table below.

Total revenue from the Company’s consolidated VIEs and JVs was $74.1 million in the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. Related expenses for the Company’s consolidated VIEs and JVs consisted of operating expenses of $72.0 million in the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, and tax expense of $0.5 million in the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. The Company did not have any VIEs or JVs prior to its June 2015 acquisition of ND.
14. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the combined weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the potential dilution of stock options, warrants, RSUs, PRSUs, Convertible Notes and the Company’s

24


Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, outstanding during the period, if dilutive. The weighted-average of potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share is shown in the table below.

The impact of this dilution was not reflected in the earnings per share calculations in the consolidated statements of operations because the impact was anti-dilutive. The treasury stock method was used to determine the shares underlying warrants, stock options, RSUs and PRSUs for potential dilution with an average market price of $25.21 per share and $41.90 per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
15. Segment Reporting
The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief operating decision maker, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, to allocate resources and assess performance. Based on this information, the Company has determined that it has two operating segments and two reportable segments. The Company’s operating and reportable segments are Transportation and Logistics.
These reportable segments are strategic business units through which the Company offers different services. The Company
evaluates the performance of the segments primarily based on their respective net operating margins, as well as revenues, net revenue margin and operating income. Accordingly, interest expense and other non-operating items are not reported in segment results. In addition, the Company has disclosed corporate amounts, which are not related to an operating segment and includes the costs of the Company’s executive and shared service teams, professional services such as legal and consulting, board of directors, and certain other corporate costs associated with operating as a public company. The Company allocates charges to the reportable segments for technology services and depreciation of technology fixed assets, as well as centralized recruiting and training resources. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated balance sheets and results of operations. Intra-segment transactions have been eliminated in the reportable segment results of operations, whereas inter-segment transactions represent a reconciling item to consolidated results as shown below.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance based on various financial measures of the respective business segments. The chief operating decision maker does not review assets by segment for purposes of allocating resources and therefore assets by segment are not disclosed.

Executive Summary
XPO Logistics is a top ten global provider of supply chain solutions. As of March 31, 2016, our integrated network of over 87,000 employees and 1,440 locations operated in 33 countries, and included leading positions in many fast-growing areas of transportation and logistics, representing diverse industry sectors and geographies.
Our service capabilities, capacity and technology enable customers of all sizes to operate their supply chains more efficiently and at lower cost. Among the more than 50,000 customers we served as of March 31, 2016 are many of the world’s largest multinational companies, and these companies depend on us to manage their transportation and logistics needs.
We run our business on a global basis, with two segments: Transportation and Logistics. Within each segment, we have built robust service offerings that respond to fast-growing areas of customer demand. Substantially all of our businesses operate under the single brand of XPO Logistics.
In our Transportation segment, we hold industry-leading positions in both North America and Europe. Globally, we are the second largest freight brokerage provider. In North America, we are the largest provider of last mile logistics for heavy goods and the largest manager of expedite shipments; the second largest provider of less-than-truckload transportation; and the third largest provider of intermodal services, with business in full truckload, global forwarding and managed transportation.
Our Transportation segment uses a blended model of owned, contracted and brokered capacity that gives us the flexibility to offer solutions that best serve the interests of our customers and Company. As of March 31, 2016, globally, we had more than

27


10,000 independent owner operators under contract to provide drayage, expedite, last mile and less-than-truckload services to our customers, and more than 50,000 independent brokered carriers representing approximately 1,000,000 trucks on the road.
The Company employs professional drivers who transport goods for customers using our owned and leased trucks and trailers: a global fleet of approximately 19,000 tractors and 47,000 trailers primarily related to our less-than-truckload and full truckload businesses. These assets also provide capacity for our truck brokerage operations.
In our Logistics segment, we provide a range of contract logistics services, including highly engineered and customized solutions, value-added warehousing and distribution, cold chain solutions and other inventory solutions. We perform e-commerce fulfillment, warehousing, reverse logistics, storage, factory support, aftermarket support, manufacturing, distribution and packaging and labeling, as well as optimization services, such as supply chain consulting and production flow management.
As of March 31, 2016, we operated approximately 151 million square feet (14.0 million square meters) of contract logistics facility space globally, with about 65.0 million square feet (6.1 million square meters) of that capacity in the United States, making us the second largest contract logistics provider globally.
In a little more than four years, we have taken XPO from a North American business with $177 million of revenue to a top ten global transportation and logistics company. In September 2011, following the equity investment in the Company led by Bradley S. Jacobs, we put a highly skilled management team in place and began the disciplined execution of a growth strategy to acquire and integrate attractive companies and optimize all XPO operations, with the goal of creating dramatic, long-term value for our customers and shareholders.
We offer customers a compelling range of transportation and logistics solutions:
Freight Brokerage: the second largest freight brokerage firm worldwide; the third largest provider of door-to-door intermodal rail services in North America, with one of the largest U.S. drayage networks, and a leader in cross-border Mexico intermodal;
Last Mile: the largest provider of home delivery and installation logistics for heavy goods in North America, and a leading last mile provider to the e-commerce industry;
Supply Chain: the second largest global provider of contract logistics based on square footage, with one of the largest e-fulfillment platforms in Europe;
Expedite: the largest manager of time-critical and high-value expedite shipments in North America via ground transportation, air charter and web-based managed transportation services;
Less-Than-Truckload: the second largest provider of LTL services in North America and a leading provider of LTL services in Western Europe. As of March 31, 2016, the Company’s LTL service in North America had some of the highest service levels in the industry for on-time performance, offered more next-day and two-day lanes than any other LTL carrier, and covered 99% of U.S. postal codes;
Full Truckload: a top 20 U.S. carrier and a leading cross-border Mexico ground transportation provider;
Managed Transportation: a top five global service provider based on the value of XPO’s freight under management, which was approximately $2.7 billion as of March 31, 2016; and
Global Forwarding: a growing provider of global forwarding services.
We believe that our ability to provide customers with integrated, end-to-end supply chain solutions gives us a competitive advantage. Many customers, particularly large companies, are increasingly turning to multi-modal providers to handle their supply chain requirements. We have built XPO to capitalize on this trend, as well as the trend toward outsourcing in both transportation and logistics, the boom in e-commerce, the adoption of just-in-time inventory practices, and the near-shoring in Mexico.
Our customers are served by well-trained employees who understand the importance of world-class service, and who use our leading-edge, proprietary technology to perform their jobs. We have a global team of approximately 1,500 IT professionals who understand how to drive innovation for the benefit of our customers. Our annual investment in technology is among the highest in our industry, because we see the ongoing development of our proprietary technology as being critical to our ability to continually improve customer service and leverage our scale.

Consolidated Results
Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2015
Our consolidated revenue for the first three months of 2016 increased 404.4% to $3,545.7 million from $703.0 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase was driven by the acquisitions of ND, Con-way and BTT, as well as organic growth. ND and Con-way's revenue included in the Company's results in the first three months of 2016 was $1,469.1 million and $1,280.3 million, respectively.
Net revenue for the first three months of 2016 increased 510.5% to $1,600.6 million from $262.2 million in the first three months of 2015. Net revenue margin was 45.1% in the first three months of 2016 as compared to 37.3% in the first three months of 2015. The increase in net revenue is attributable to acquisitions and organic growth. The increase in net revenue margin primarily relates to the acquisitions of ND and Con-way as well as organic improvement to net revenue margin at our truck brokerage and last mile businesses.
Direct operating expense for the first three months of 2016 was $1,106.2 million, or 31.2% as a percentage of revenue, compared to $151.2 million, or 21.5% as a percentage of revenue, in the first three months of 2015. Direct operating expense increased due to the acquisitions of ND and Con-way.
Sales, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) expense increased by $316.2 million in the first three months of 2016 compared to the first three months of 2015 primarily due to the contribution of SG&A associated with new acquisitions and transaction and integration costs. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 12.3% in the first three months of 2016 as compared to 16.4% in the first three months of 2015.
Operating income was $62.4 million in the first three months of 2016, and includes a $5.8 million benefit to depreciation and amortization related to updated purchase price allocation of acquired assets. Operating loss in the first three months of 2015 was $4.8 million. The increase was primarily due to the increase in net revenue and lower SG&A as a percentage of revenue.
Other expense for the first three months of 2016 increased to $1.2 million from $0.2 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase was primarily driven by $2.4 million in losses recognized in earnings in the first three months of 2016 for foreign

29


currency option and forward contracts not designated as qualifying hedging instruments, partially offset by a $2.0 million gain on sale of assets.
Foreign currency loss for the first three months of 2016 increased to $3.1 million from $0.2 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase was due to the impact of foreign currency transactions related to the acquisition of ND.
Interest expense for the first three months of 2016 increased 303.0% to $93.1 million from $23.1 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase in interest expense for the first three months of 2016 was primarily attributable to the increased indebtedness through which the Company funded the 2015 acquisitions.
Our effective income tax rates in the first three months of 2016 and 2015 were 44.9% and 48.1%, respectively. The tax rate for the first three months of 2016 reflects additional valuation allowances established on state and foreign net operating losses where it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be utilized, non-deductible transaction costs and the mix of income among the jurisdictions in which we do business with statutory rates that differ from the U.S. rate. The tax rate for the first three months of 2015 reflects the non-deductible nature of certain expenses (including those related to the Company’s acquisitions), the non-taxable nature of a holdback liability release related to the initial acquisition of the Company's last mile logistics platform and the mix of income among the jurisdictions in which we do business with statutory rates that differ from the U.S. rate. For both periods, our effective income tax rates reflect the Company’s intention and ability to permanently reinvest earnings of its foreign subsidiaries. Consequently the Company has not provided any additional U.S. taxes on the undistributed earnings as of the balance sheet dates, except on those earnings that are subject to U.S. tax without regard to whether those earnings are actually distributed.
The increase in net loss was due primarily to higher interest expense and increased intangible asset amortization related to acquisitions.

Note: Total depreciation and amortization for the Transportation reportable segment included in cost of transportation and services, direct operating expense and SG&A was $114.6 million and $19.7 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Transportation
Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2015
Revenue in our Transportation segment increased by 308.6% to $2,297.4 million in the first three months of 2016 compared to $562.2 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the acquisitions of ND, Con-way and BTT as well as organic growth at our last mile and truck brokerage businesses.
Net revenue increased 435.7% to $650.3 million in the first three months of 2016 from $121.4 million in the first three months of 2015. Net revenue margin was 28.3% in the first three months of 2016 as compared to 21.6% in the first three months of 2015. The increase in net revenue is attributable to acquisitions and organic growth. The increase in net revenue margin was primarily due to the acquisition of the Con-way less-than-truckload business and improvement in net revenue margin at last mile and truck brokerage, partially offset by lower intermodal and expedite margins.

30


Direct operating expense for the first three months of 2016 was $312.4 million, or 13.6% as a percentage of revenue, compared to $30.2 million, or 5.4% as a percentage of revenue, in the first three months of 2015. Direct operating expense increased due to the acquisitions of ND and Con-way.
SG&A expense increased to $262.5 million in the first three months of 2016 from $87.6 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase in SG&A expense was primarily due to SG&A associated with new acquisitions and transaction and integration costs. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense decreased to 11.4% in the first three months of 2016 compared with 15.6% in the first three months of 2015.
Operating income was $75.4 million in the first three months of 2016 compared to $3.6 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase in operating income was primarily due to the increase in net revenue and lower SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue.
Management’s growth strategy for the Transportation segment is to:
Market our broader, integrated multi-modal offering to customers of all sizes, both new business and existing accounts;
Cross-sell transportation solutions to customers of our Logistics segment;
Optimize all operations to provide world-class service and highly effective solutions that satisfy customers’ transportation-related supply chain goals;
Recruit and retain quality drivers, and best utilize our transportation assets;

Logistics
Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2015
Revenue in our Logistics segment increased by 795.4% to $1,260.7 million in the first three months of 2016 compared to $140.8 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by the acquisitions of ND and Con-way as well as organic growth.
Net revenue increased 575.1% to $950.5 million in the first three months of 2016 from $140.8 million in the first three months of 2015. The increase in net revenue was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of ND and Con-way as well as organic growth.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $328.2 million of working capital, including cash and cash equivalents of $279.0 million, compared to working capital of $262.8 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $289.8 million, as of December 31, 2015. This increase of $65.4 million in working capital was mainly due to an increase in prepaid and other current assets.
We continually evaluate our liquidity requirements, capital needs and availability of capital resources based on our operating needs and our planned growth initiatives. In addition to using existing cash balances and net cash provided by operating activities, in certain circumstances we may use debt financings and issuances of equity or equity-related securities to fund our operating needs and growth initiatives. See the discussion below in the Debt Facilities section regarding the Company's multicurrency secured revolving loan credit facility.
In 2016, we anticipate net capital expenditures to be in the range of $475 million to $500 million. Actual 2016 capital expenditures may differ from the estimated amount depending on factors such as the availability and timing of delivery of
equipment. We will continue to evaluate our investments in long-term strategic projects to ensure that our capital
expenditures generate high returns on investments and take into account our outlook for global economic conditions.
We believe that cash generated from operations, the existing cash balance, and availability under the revolving credit facility will be sufficient to finance existing operations.
Cash Flow
During the first three months of 2016, $6.9 million of cash was generated by operations compared to $47.3 million generated in the comparable period in 2015. Cash flows generated from operations between the period ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 related to larger non-cash charges related to depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation in 2016. The primary use of cash for the period ended March 31, 2016 was the payment of outstanding accounts payable and an increase in cash used for prepaid expense and other assets. The primary source of cash for the period ended March 31, 2015 was the collection of outstanding accounts receivable.

33


Cash generated from revenue equaled $3,576.5 million for the first three months of 2016 as compared to $753.7 million for the same period in 2015 and correlates directly with the revenue increase between the two periods. The increase in cash flow is primarily related to a volume increase due to acquisitions between the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
Cash used for payment of transportation services and direct operating expenses for the first three months of 2016 equaled $3,028.6 million as compared to $600.1 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in cash outflows between the two periods correlates to the increase in revenue between the two periods. Payroll represents a significant operating expense. For the first three months of 2016, cash used for payroll was $833.8 million as compared to $110.7 million for the same period in 2015. Other operating uses of cash included SG&A items, which equaled $529.2 million and $118.9 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Investing activities used $97.2 million of cash during the first three months of 2016 compared to a use of $69.6 million during the same period in 2015. In the first three months of 2016, $114.7 million was used to purchase fixed assets and $17.5 million was received from the sale of assets. During the same period in 2015, $58.2 million was used in acquisitions and $11.4 million was used to purchase fixed assets.
Financing activities generated $75.8 million for the first three months of 2016 compared to $412.5 million generated for the same period in 2015. The main sources of cash from financing activities during the first three months of 2016 was the $200.0 million of proceeds from borrowing on the revolving credit facility and $18.3 million of proceeds from bank overdrafts. The primary uses of cash during the first three months of 2016 were the repayment of borrowings on the credit facility of $100.0 million and repayment of long-term debt of $41.8 million. During the same period in 2015, the primary source of cash was the $410.2 million of net proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt.
Debt Facilities
On October 30, 2015, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Credit Agreement (the "ABL Facility") among XPO and certain of XPO’s U.S. and Canadian wholly owned subsidiaries (which include the U.S. subsidiaries of the former Con-way), as borrowers, the other credit parties from time to time party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as agent for such lenders. The ABL Facility replaced XPO’s existing Amended Credit Agreement, and, among other things, (i) increased the commitments under the ABL Facility to $1.0 billion, (ii) permitted the acquisition of Con-way and the transactions relating thereto, (iii) reduced the margin on loans under the ABL Facility by 0.25% from that contained in the existing Amended Credit Agreement and (iv) matures on October 30, 2020 (subject, in certain circumstances, to a springing maturity in the event that XPO’s Senior Notes due 2019 are not repaid or subjected to a cash reserve three months prior to the maturity date thereof). Up to $350 million of the ABL Facility is available for issuance of letters of credit, and up to $50 million of the ABL Facility is available for swing line loans. At March 31, 2016, the Company had a borrowing base of $908.6 million and availability under the ABL Facility of $546.8 million after considering outstanding letters of credit of $261.8 million and an amount drawn of $100.0 million. As of March 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with the ABL Facility’s financial covenants. Total unamortized debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility classified in long-term debt at March 31, 2016 were $9.1 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company guarantees the lease payments of certain tractor and trailer equipment utilized by subcontract drivers. The guarantee continues through the end of the lease of the equipment, typically four years. The maximum amount of the guarantee is limited to the unpaid principal and interest amounts. As of March 31, 2016, the maximum amount of the guarantees was approximately $14.4 million.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. In certain circumstances, those estimates and assumptions can affect amounts reported in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. We have made our best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. We do not believe there is a great likelihood that materially different amounts will be reported related to our accounting policies. However, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Refer to Note 2 —Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies of Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 includes a summary of our critical accounting policies. There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

New Pronouncements
Refer to Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, of Item 1, "Financial Statements" for discussion of recently issued accounting standards that are relevant to XPO.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
The following discussion about our market risk disclosures involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity price risk.
Liquidity Risk. As of March 31, 2016, we held $309.4 million of cash and restricted cash in cash depository and money market funds held in depository accounts at 123 financial institutions. The primary market risk associated with these investments is liquidity risk.
Interest Rate Risk. In conjunction with our June 2015 acquisition of ND, we assumed ND's asset financing arrangements ("Asset Financing"). At March 31, 2016, we had outstanding $241.8 million aggregate principal amount of Asset Financing. Approximately 7% of the Asset Financing has fixed interest rates and approximately 93% has floating interest rates. Our floating rate Asset Financing subjects us to risk resulting from changes in short-term (primarily Euribor) interest rates. We use interest rate swaps (exchanging a variable rate for a fixed rate) to manage the fixed and floating interest rate mix of our Asset Financing and limit our exposure to interest rate risk. As of March 31, 2016, the notional amount of Asset Financing interest rate swaps designated as cash flows hedges was $216.3 million. Assuming a hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in the interest rate, annual interest expense would increase by approximately $0.1 million on our floating rate Asset Financing that is not hedged with interest rate swaps. For additional information on the Asset Financing, refer to Note 9—Debt, of Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For additional information on the interest rate swaps, refer to Note 12—Derivative Instruments of the consolidated financial statements included within.
We have exposure to changes in interest rates on our revolving credit facility. The interest rates on our revolving credit facility fluctuate based on LIBOR or a base rate plus an applicable margin. Assuming our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility was fully drawn at March 31, 2016, a hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in the interest rate would increase our annual interest expense by $10.0 million.
On October 30, 2015, XPO entered into a senior secured term loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan Facility”) that provided for a single borrowing of $1.6 billion. The interest rate on the Term Loan Facility fluctuates based on LIBOR or a Base Rate, as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin of 4.50%, in the case of LIBOR loans, and 3.50%, in the case of Base Rate loans. A hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in the interest rate would increase our annual interest expense by $16.0 million.
Convertible Debt Outstanding. The fair market value of our outstanding issue of Convertible Notes is subject to interest rate and market price risk due to the convertible feature of the notes and other factors. Generally the fair market value of fixed interest rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The fair market value of the Convertible Notes may also increase as the market price of our stock rises and decrease as the market price of our stock falls. Interest rate and market value changes affect the fair market value of the Convertible Notes, and may affect the prices at which we would be able to repurchase such Convertible Notes were we to do so. These changes do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. For additional information on the fair value of our outstanding Convertible Notes, refer to Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies of the consolidated financial statements included within.
Senior Notes due 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2022 and Senior Debentures due 2034. The fair market value of our outstanding issue of Senior Notes due 2018, Senior Notes due 2019, Senior Notes due 2021, and Senior Notes due 2022 and Senior Debentures due 2034 is subject to interest rate risk. Generally the fair market value of fixed interest rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. Interest rate changes affect the fair market value of the Senior Notes and Senior Debentures, and may affect the prices at which we would be able to repurchase such notes were we to do so. These changes do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. For additional information on the fair value of our outstanding Senior Notes and Senior Debentures, refer to Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies of the consolidated financial statements included within.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk. Following the ND acquisition, we have a significant proportion of our net assets and income in non-U.S. dollar currencies, primarily the EUR and British Pound Sterling ("GBP"). We are exposed to currency risk from the potential changes in functional currency values of our foreign currency denominated assets, liabilities and cash flows. Consequently, a depreciation of the EUR and GBP relative to the U.S. dollar could have an adverse impact on our financial results.
In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes due 2022, we entered into certain cross-currency swap agreements to partially manage the related foreign currency exchange risk by effectively converting a portion of the fixed-rate USD-
denominated Senior Notes due 2022, including the semi-annual interest payments, to fixed-rate, EUR-denominated debt. The risk management objective is to manage a portion of the foreign currency risk relating to net investments in subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies. In addition to the cross-currency swaps, we use foreign currency denominated notes as nonderivative hedging instruments of our net investments in foreign operations with the same risk management objective as the cross-currency swaps.
In order to mitigate against the risk of a reduction in the value of foreign currency earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") from the Company’s international operations with the EUR and GBP as the functional currency, the Company uses foreign currency option and forward contracts.
For additional information on the cross-currency swap agreements and foreign currency option and forward contracts, refer to Note 12—Derivative Instruments of the consolidated financial statements included within.
As of March 31, 2016, the result of a uniform 10% strengthening in the value of the USD relative to the EUR would result in a decrease in net assets of approximately $41.9 million. As of March 31, 2016, the result of a uniform 10% strengthening in the value of the USD relative to the GBP would result in a decrease in net assets of approximately $44.2 million. These theoretical calculations assume that an instantaneous, parallel shift in exchange rates occurs, which is not consistent with our actual experience in foreign currency transactions. Fluctuations in exchange rates also affect the volume of sales or the foreign currency sales price as competitors' services become more or less attractive. The sensitivity analysis of the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates does not factor in a potential change in sales levels or local currency prices.
Commodity Price Risk. We are exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in the price of diesel fuel purchased for use in Company-owned vehicles. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the price of diesel in France varied by 10.2%; the price of diesel in the United Kingdom varied by 9.1%; and the price of diesel in the United States varied by 7.0%. However, the Company includes price adjustment clauses or cost-recovery mechanisms in many of its customer contracts in the event of a change in the fuel purchase price. The clauses mean that substantially all fluctuations in the purchase price of diesel, except for short-term economic fluctuations, can be passed on to customers in the sales price. Therefore, a hypothetical 10% change in the price of diesel would not be expected to materially alter our financial performance over the long term.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such time such that the material information required to be included in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, and was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except as described below, there have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting. On February 9, 2015, June 1, 2015, June 8, 2015 and October 30, 2015, the Company completed its acquisitions of UX Specialized Logistics, LLC, Bridge Terminal Transport Services, Inc., Norbert Dentressangle SA, and Con-way Inc., respectively, and is integrating the acquired businesses into the Company’s overall internal control over financial reporting process. Our management is in the process of assessing the internal control over financial reporting at these acquired businesses and is implementing or revising internal controls where necessary. For additional information on these acquisitions, see Note 3—Acquisitions of Item 1, "Financial Statements."
Part II—Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are involved, and will continue to be involved, in numerous legal proceedings arising out of the conduct of our business. These proceedings may include, among other matters, claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with the transportation of freight, claims regarding anti-competitive practices, and employment-related claims, including claims involving asserted breaches of employee restrictive covenants and tortious interference with contract. These proceedings also include numerous purported class-action lawsuits, multi-plaintiff and individual lawsuits and state tax and other administrative proceedings that claim either that our owner operators or contract carriers should be treated as employees, rather than independent contractors, or that certain of our drivers were not paid for all compensable time or were not provided with required meal or rest breaks. We are currently engaged in several alleged independent contractor misclassification claims or other wage and hour claims involving certain companies that we have acquired in our last mile, LTL, full truckload, and intermodal businesses. These lawsuits and proceedings may seek substantial monetary damages (including claims for unpaid wages, overtime, failure to provide meal and rest periods, unreimbursed business expenses and other items), injunctive relief, or both. For additional information about these matters, please refer to Note 5—Contingencies of Item 1, "Financial Statements."
We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any matters to which we are presently party will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There are no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A, "Risk Factors," of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company issued an aggregate of 364 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to certain holders of the Company's Convertible Notes in connection with the conversion of $6,000 aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes. The number of shares of our common stock issued in the foregoing transactions equals the number of shares of our common stock presently issuable to holders of the Convertible Notes upon conversion under the original terms of the Convertible Notes. The issuance of these shares was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in accordance with Section 4(a)(2) thereof, as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the above transactions. For additional information on the Company's Convertible Notes, refer to Note 9—Debt, of Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities.
