Mario Harik, chief executive officer of XPO, said, “We reported a strong second quarter of earnings growth, underpinned by a year-over-year increase in revenue of 9%. Companywide, we grew adjusted EBITDA by 41% and adjusted diluted EPS by 58%.

“In North American LTL, we continued to deliver service at record levels, with the best damage claims ratio in our history at 0.2%. This helped drive above-market yield growth, ex-fuel, of 9%, and a 3.4% increase in tonnage per day, with 4.5% more shipments per day. We also operated more cost efficiently, reducing purchased transportation and increasing labor productivity. As a result, we reported a 51% increase in adjusted operating income and improved our adjusted operating ratio by 440 basis points to 83.2%. In addition, we’ve now opened 14 of the 28 service centers we acquired in December, with another 10 expected this year.”

Harik continued, “Our strong performance demonstrates the steady progress we’re making toward becoming the LTL service leader in North America. We’ll continue to build our service offering, invest in capacity ahead of demand and operate more efficiently. This strategy is creating a long runway for future margin expansion.”

Second Quarter Highlights

For the second quarter 2024, the company generated revenue of $2.08 billion, compared with $1.92 billion for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase in revenue was due primarily to higher yield and tonnage per day in the North American LTL segment.

Operating income was $197 million for the second quarter, compared with $107 million for the same period in 2023. Net income from continuing operations was $150 million for the second quarter, compared with $31 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase in net income from continuing operations includes a one-time tax benefit of $41 million related to the reorganization of the company’s legal entities in the European business. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per share was $1.25 for the second quarter, compared with $0.27 for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted net income from continuing operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $135 million for the second quarter, compared with $83 million for the same period in 2023, and excludes the $41 million tax benefit. Adjusted diluted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $1.12 for the second quarter, compared with $0.71 for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, was $343 million for the second quarter, compared with $244 million for the same period in 2023.

The company generated $210 million of cash flow from operating activities in the second quarter, and ended the quarter with $250 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand, after $184 million of net capital expenditures.

Results by Business Segment

North American Less-Than-Truckload (LTL): The segment generated revenue of $1.27 billion for the second quarter 2024, compared with $1.14 billion for the same period in 2023. On a year-over-year basis, shipments per day increased 4.5%, tonnage per day increased 3.4%, and yield, excluding fuel, increased 9.0%. Including fuel, yield increased 7.8%.
Operating income was $203 million for the second quarter 2024, compared with $129 million for the same period in 2023. Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $214 million for the second quarter, compared with $142 million for the same period in 2023. Adjusted operating ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, was 83.2%, reflecting a year-over-year improvement of 440 basis points.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter 2024 was $297 million, compared with $208 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase in adjusted EBITDA was due primarily to higher yield, excluding fuel, and an increase in tonnage per day.

European Transportation: The segment generated revenue of $808 million for the second quarter 2024, compared with $781 million for the same period in 2023. Operating income was $10 million for the second quarter, compared with $12 million for the same period in 2023.

Corporate: The segment generated an operating loss of $16 million for the second quarter 2024, compared with a loss of $34 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year improvement in operating loss was due primarily to a $6 million reduction in transaction and integration costs and a $4 million reduction in restructuring costs.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was a loss of $3 million for the second quarter 2024, compared with a loss of $10 million for the same period in 2023, reflecting a year-over-year improvement from the company’s continued rationalization of corporate overhead costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release to the most directly comparable measure under GAAP, which are set forth in the financial tables attached to this press release.

XPO’s non-GAAP financial measures in this press release include: adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”) on a consolidated basis and for corporate; adjusted EBITDA margin on a consolidated basis; adjusted net income from continuing operations; adjusted diluted earnings from continuing operations per share (“adjusted diluted EPS”); adjusted operating income for our North American Less-Than-Truckload and European Transportation segments; and adjusted operating ratio for our North American Less-Than-Truckload segment.

We believe that the above adjusted financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be reflective of, or are unrelated to, XPO and its business segments’ core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying businesses. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore our measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should only be used as supplemental measures of our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating ratio include adjustments for transaction and integration costs, as well as restructuring costs and other adjustments as set forth in the attached tables. Transaction and integration adjustments are generally incremental costs that result from an actual or planned acquisition, divestiture or spin-off and may include transaction costs, consulting fees, stock-based compensation, retention awards, internal salaries and wages (to the extent the individuals are assigned full-time to integration and transformation activities) and certain costs related to integrating and converging IT systems. Restructuring costs primarily relate to severance costs associated with business optimization initiatives. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating XPO’s and each business segment’s ongoing performance.

We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin improve comparability from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest and financing expenses), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax impacts and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables that management has determined are not reflective of core operating activities and thereby assist investors with assessing trends in our underlying businesses. We believe that adjusted net income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted EPS improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain costs and gains that management has determined are not reflective of our core operating activities, including amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables. We believe that adjusted operating income and adjusted operating ratio improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain transaction and integration costs and restructuring costs, as well as amortization expenses as set out in the attached tables.
