Eric Fuller, President and CEO, commented, “I am very pleased with our second quarter results as we are beginning to see the tangible, financial benefits of our strategic initiatives focused on utilizing technology to improve our processes, accelerate the velocity of our business, improve our customers’ and drivers’ satisfaction, and lower our costs.  The approximate 500 basis points of sequential margin improvement we achieved exceeded normal seasonality. The successful launch of our digital fleet, ongoing success in reducing overhead costs, better safety performance, and  lower fuel costs more than offset a sequential decrease in revenue per mile in our Over-the-Road division as there continued to be excess tractor capacity relative to freight demand in the market for a majority of the quarter due in part to COVID-19.”

Mr. Fuller continued, “A major digital initiative that we have been working on over the last two years has been the development, launch, and ramp of our digital fleet. This fleet is largely recruited, planned, dispatched, and managed using artificial intelligence and digital platforms. We developed the concept as a hypothesis in 2018 based in part on the business models of the digital freight brokerages. During 2019, we began building our technology leadership and teams to construct the necessary databases, applications, and processes to launch a pilot fleet with a small number of trucks in the fourth quarter of 2019.  The test was successful and we expanded the pilot fleet to approximately 100 trucks in the first quarter. Given the positive results of the first quarter pilot we moved to a full production model, scaling the business to approximately 400 trucks in the second quarter of 2020. Phase one of our plan is to convert a total of 900 Over-the-Road solo trucks, with the lowest returns, to our digital platform over the next few quarters. Phase two of our plan will be to potentially convert an additional 1,200 trucks over the next couple of years.  While the conversion will not be linear, we expect our margins to expand further.”


Enterprise Update

Operating revenue was $422.5 million, an increase of $8.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to increased revenues in the Company’s Truckload division of $16.2 million, an increase of $6.6 million in Brokerage revenue, and decreased fuel surcharge revenues of $14.2 million. Excluding the impact of fuel surcharges, second quarter revenue increased $22.8 million to $394.0 million, an increase of 6.1% as compared to the prior year quarter.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2020 was $16.3 million which compares favorably to the $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2019. Operating ratio for the second quarter of 2020 was 96.1% compared to 97.9% in the prior year quarter.

Net income attributable to controlling interest for the second quarter of 2020 was $9.5 million compared to $2.7 million in the prior year quarter.  Adjusted net income attributable to controlling interest1 for the second quarter of 2020 was $9.5 million, compared to $2.9 million in the 2019 quarter. Earnings per diluted share were $0.18 for the second quarter of 2020 and adjusted earnings per diluted share1 were $0.18.

The Truckload segment achieved an operating ratio of 94.6% and an adjusted operating ratio1 of 94.1% for the second quarter of 2020, a 340 and 350 basis point improvement, respectively, compared to the operating ratio of 98.0% and the adjusted operating ratio1 of 97.6% achieved in the second quarter of 2019.  This improvement was achieved despite a 3.2% decline in average revenue per mile as the Company continued to execute on its digital initiatives while maintaining a focus on reducing fixed and variable costs.

In the Over-the-Road division, the persistent oversupply of tractors relative to market demand continued to pressure spot pricing lower compared to the 2019 quarter. Contract revenue per mile was down year over year by approximately 5%. Average revenue per tractor per week declined 1.8% compared with the second quarter of 2019. Average revenue per mile decreased 5.2% compared with the 2019 quarter.

Mr. Fuller added, “The Over-the-Road division experienced substantial improvement in the second quarter driven by the conversion of an additional 300 of our lowest performing tractors into our digital fleet.  This conversion helped drive our OTR utilization up by 3.5%, as compared to the first quarter of 2020, while contributing to a reduction in both our fixed and variable costs.”

The Dedicated division’s average revenue per tractor per week increased $104 per tractor per week, or 2.6% compared to the second quarter of 2019 on relatively flat average revenue per mile and higher miles per tractor. The fluctuations in volume in the general freight market and in specific industries related to COVID-19 have not negatively impacted the volumes of the Company’s major Dedicated accounts, which are concentrated in the discount retail and grocery market sectors.

Mr. Fuller concluded, “Our Dedicated division continued to perform very well in the second quarter having delivered its fifth consecutive quarter of record productivity.  Average revenue per tractor per week expanded from the first quarter, to $4,122, while we grew the truck count in this division by 1.3%.  I continue to be very pleased with our team’s execution and we remain focused on organically growing the Dedicated division given the stability that we believe this business provides through economic cycles.”

The Brokerage segment continues to provide additional selectivity for the Company’s assets to optimize yield while at the same time offering more capacity solutions to customers. Brokerage segment revenue increased to $46.0 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $39.5 million in the second quarter of 2019, primarily as a result of increased load count partially offset by decreased revenue per load.  Brokerage operating loss was $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to operating income of $1.3 million in the year ago quarter.  Management will continue to focus on improving margins in this segment over the next few quarters.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At the end of the second quarter 2020, the Company had $140.4 million of liquidity (defined as cash plus availability under the Company’s revolving credit facility), an increase of approximately $45 million from the first quarter, $381.6 million of net debt (defined as long-term debt, including current maturities, less cash balances), and $240.2 million of total stockholders' equity.

The Company expects its net capital expenditures to approximate $100 to $120 million for the full year of 2020, which includes an approximate $20 million transaction that carried over from the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company will continue to monitor market conditions and may further reduce its planned capital expenditures as prudent. Through June 30, 2020, net capital expenditures were $65.0 million including the carryover $20 million from 2019.

COVID – 19 Business Update

Continued unwavering focus on employee health and safety for both driving and non-driving team members – over 95% of Company’s corporate office staff continue working from home
The Company’s volumes through the second quarter remained consistent primarily as result of the Company’s customer mix
The Company remains confident in its current liquidity position and does not anticipate material liquidity constraints

Outlook

The Company’s baseline assumptions for the balance of 2020 include a general sequential economic recovery that may be volatile nationally or by region at times, a muted increase of capacity, and a relatively benign cost inflation, which should allow for a more favorable rate environment over the next several quarters. Based on these assumptions, we expect our internal initiatives around digitization and cost management, combined with our continued strength in Dedicated and an improving rate outlook have us well positioned to continue improving our margins through 2021.

(1) Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our net income determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (‘‘GAAP’’), we evaluate operating performance using certain non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted Operating Ratio, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interest, and Adjusted EPS (on a consolidated and, as applicable, segment basis). Management believes the use of non-GAAP measures assists investors and securities analysts in understanding the ongoing operating performance of our business by allowing more effective comparison between periods. Further, management uses non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Ratio, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interest, and Adjusted EPS measures on a supplemental basis to remove items that may not be an indicator of performance from period-to-period. The non-GAAP information provided is used by our management and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies. The non-GAAP measures used herein have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered measures of income generated by our business or discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. You should not consider the non-GAAP measures used herein in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis.

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G and Regulation S-K, we have provided reconciliations of Adjusted Operating Ratio, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Controlling Interest, and Adjusted EPS to the most comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release.
