Watch Items from the Filing
LTL tonnage per day fell 4.1% YoY and shipments per day fell 5.7% YoY in Q2, with revenue growth driven entirely by a 15.2% rise in LTL revenue per hundredweight rather than volume.
Average cost per gallon of diesel fuel rose 70.5% YoY in Q2, a major cost pressure the company manages via fuel surcharges but does not hedge.
July 2026 update shows continued volume softness: LTL tons per day down 1.0% YoY on a 3.0% decline in shipments per day, even as revenue per day rose 8.2%.
Average number of active full-time employees declined 7.1% YoY, reflecting headcount reductions alongside lower shipment volumes.
$1.31 billion remains authorized under the $3.0 billion 2023 share repurchase program, with $145.9M repurchased in Q2 2026 alone.
