Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation, Organization, Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc. (the Company) is headquartered in Cudahy, Wisconsin and
has two operating segments which are also reportable segments: less-than-truckload (LTL) and
truck brokerage (TL). Within the LTL business, the Company operates 17 service centers throughout
the United States complemented by relationships with over 200 delivery agents. Within the TL
business, the Company operates nine dispatch offices and is augmented by 42 independent agents. The
Company, from pickup to delivery, leverages relationships with a diverse group of third-party
carriers to provide scalable capacity and reliable, customized service to customers in North
America.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for
interim financial information. The Company believes such statements include all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of its
financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods
indicated. Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
applicable to interim financial statements, the accompanying financial statements do not include
all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for annual
financial statements. While the Company believes the disclosures presented are adequate, these
unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2009
contained in the Companys Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities and
Exchange Act with the SEC on May 13, 2010. Operating results for the periods presented in this
report are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the calendar year
ending December 31, 2010, or any other interim period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
2. Restricted Cash
In December 2008, the Company deposited $5.0 million into a restricted cash account pursuant to the
terms of the Keep Well Agreement entered into in conjunction with the issuance of its Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock. The restricted cash may be released for payment of principal,
compliance with restrictive covenants or ordinary course liquidity needs, as defined in the Keep
Well Agreement. The Keep Well Agreement states that once funds are drawn from the restricted cash
account, they cannot be replaced, and the agreement terminates when all funds are used or all
senior debt obligations have been paid in full. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009,
restricted cash of $4.1 million is included in other noncurrent assets in the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheets.

3. Acquisitions
On December 11, 2009, the Company acquired certain assets of Bullet Freight Systems, Inc.
(Bullet) for purposes of expanding its market presence and service offerings in the LTL segment.
Bullet operates as a common and contract motor carrier pursuant to U.S. Department of
Transportation authority and is engaged primarily in transportation of less-than-truckload
shipments. Bullet has operations based out of four service centers and operates throughout the
United States. Total consideration was $27.2 million. The acquisition price and related financing
fees of approximately $1.1 million were financed with borrowings
under credit facilities of $8.8
million and the issuance of $19.5 million face value of junior subordinated notes, including $3.0
million issued to the selling shareholders. In conjunction with the issuance of the junior
subordinated notes, the Company issued warrants with a fair value of $3.0 million. The Company
incurred $0.5 million of transaction expenses related to this acquisition.
The following is a summary of the allocation of the purchase price paid to the fair value of the
net assets of Bullet (in thousands):
Accounts receivable |
$ | 3,940 | ||
Property and equipment |

Goodwill |

Customer relationship intangible assets |
800 | |||
Other noncurrent assets |
46 | |||
Accounts payable and other liabilities |
(3,819 | ) | ||
$ | 27,205 | |||
The Bullet goodwill is a result of acquiring and retaining their existing workforces and expected
synergies from integrating their operations into the Company.
4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of all acquisitions over the estimated fair
value of the net assets acquired.
The following is a rollforward of the goodwill from December 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010 (in
thousands):

Senior Debt
The senior credit agreement (the Agreement) is secured by all assets of the Company and includes
a $50.0 million revolving credit facility and a $40.0 million term loan. On December 11, 2009, in
connection with the acquisition of Bullet, the Company entered into a consent and third amendment
to the Agreement which included a $9.0 million incremental term loan which matures in 2012. The
revolving credit facility and the term loan also mature in 2012. Availability under the revolving
credit facility is subject to a borrowing base of eligible accounts receivable, as defined in the
Agreement. Interest is payable quarterly at LIBOR plus an applicable margin or, at the Companys
option, prime plus an applicable margin. Principal on the term loan and incremental term loan is
payable in quarterly installments ranging from $1.9 million per quarter in 2010 increasing to $2.4
million per quarter through December 31, 2011 and a final payment of $17.6 million due in 2012. The
revolving credit facility also provides for the issuance of up to $6.0 million in letters of
credit. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $4.4 million.
Total availability under the revolving credit facility was $9.7 million as of March 31, 2010. At
March 31, 2010, the interest rate on the revolving credit facility and term notes was LIBOR (0.3%
at March 31, 2010) plus 5%.
The Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants that require the Company to maintain certain
leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. The Agreement also prohibits dividend payments,
restricts management fee payments to related parties and restricts the incurrence of additional
debt. Dividend restrictions apply if certain financial ratios are not met and no event of default
exists. The Company entered into a consent, waiver and second amendment to the Agreement effective
December 23, 2008 which made certain changes to the Agreement including modification of the
restrictive covenants and a consent to enter into the Keep Well Agreement.
Subordinated Debt
Effective December 23, 2008, the Company entered into a consent, waiver and amendment to the
subordinated notes agreement. Changes included, among other items, amendment of certain covenants
and a consent to enter into the Keep Well Agreement. Effective December 11, 2009, the Company
entered into a consent and second amendment to the subordinated notes agreement to allow for the
acquisition of Bullet. The subordinated notes include cash interest of 12% plus a deferred margin,
accrued quarterly, that is treated as deferred interest and is added to the principal balance of
the note each quarter. The deferred interest ranges from 3.5% to 7.5% depending on the Companys total
leverage calculation, as defined, payable at maturity on August 31, 2012. Upon redemption of the
subordinated notes, the portion of the principal balance that represents interest incurred but not
paid will be reflected in the Companys statement of cash flows as an operating outflow. The
subordinated notes are held by American Capital, Ltd. (American Capital), Sankaty Credit
Opportunities, L.P., Sankaty Credit Opportunities II, L.P. (collectively Sankaty), and RGIP, LLC.
(RGIP), who are also stockholders of the Company.

Table of Contents
Junior Subordinated Debt
On December 11, 2009, in connection with the Bullet acquisition, the Company entered into a $16.5
million face amount junior subordinated notes agreement. The junior subordinated notes include
interest of 20% accrued quarterly that is deferred and is added to the principal balance of the
note each quarter and is payable at maturity on February 28, 2013. The majority ($15.5 million) of
the junior subordinated notes are held by Eos Capital Partners III, L.P., Eos Partners, L.P.
(collectively, Eos), Sankaty, RGIP and certain individuals associated with Thayer | Hidden Creek
Partners, L.L.C. (THCP), who are also stockholders of the Company. Also in connection with the
Bullet acquisition, the former Bullet owners were issued $3.0 million face amount of junior
subordinated notes in form identical in all material respects as described above.
In addition, the junior subordinated notes agreement requires the Company to pay a premium upon
repayment of the junior subordinated notes. The applicable premium begins at 50% and decreases to
10% over the life of the note. At maturity, the premium is equal to 10% of the outstanding balance.
Accordingly, this amount is accreted to interest expense and the outstanding note balance over the
life of the debt. For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, $0.1 million was recorded in interest
expense related to this premium and added to the outstanding junior subordinated notes balance.
The Company issued warrants to the holders of the junior subordinated notes. The value of these
warrants is accreted to interest expense over the life of the related debt. The unaccreted portion
totaling $2.9 million as of March 31, 2010 has been included in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheets as a reduction in long-term debt.
6. Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to
common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period.
In 2010, diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average
stock outstanding plus stock equivalents that would arise from the assumed exercise of stock
options and conversion of warrants using the treasury stock method. In 2009, diluted earnings per
share did not assume this same exercise of stock options and conversion of warrants as they were
deemed anti-dilutive due to the net loss available to common stockholders. There is no difference,
for any of the periods presented, in the amount of net income (loss) available to common
stockholders used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.
The following table reconciles basic weighted average stock outstanding to diluted weighted average
stock outstanding (in thousands):

Table of Contents
The Company had additional stock options and warrants outstanding of 3,037,727 and 3,815,317
as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These shares were not included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share because they were not assumed to be exercised under the treasury stock
method or were anti-dilutive.
7. Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate was 42.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared with
29.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2009. In determining the quarterly provision for income
taxes, the Company used an estimated annual effective tax rate, which was based on expected annual
income, statutory tax rates, and its best estimate of non-deductible and non-taxable items of
income and expense. Income tax expense varies from the amount computed by applying the federal
corporate income tax rate of 35.0% to income before income taxes primarily due to state income
taxes, net of federal income tax effect, Canadian income taxes and adjustments for permanent
differences.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
Redeemable Common Stock
Certain shares of the Companys outstanding Class A common stock were issued in 2006 and classified
as mezzanine equity. These shares, held by current and former employees of the Company, are subject
to redemption at fair value by the Company in the event of death or disability of the holder, as
defined, during a seven-year period from the date of original issuance. The Company has determined
that redemption of these shares of Class A common stock is not probable and, as such, has not
adjusted the carrying value of such shares to fair value as of March 31, 2010 and December 31,
2009, respectively.
Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock
In March 2007, the Company issued and had outstanding 5,000 shares of non-voting Series A Preferred
Stock (Series A Preferred Stock), which are mandatorily redeemable by the Company at $1,000 per
share, in cash, on November 30, 2012. The Series A Preferred Stock receives cash dividends annually
on April 30 at an annual rate equal to $40 per share and if such dividends are not paid when due
such annual dividend rate shall increase to $60 per share and continue to accrue without interest
until such delinquent payments are made. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, $192,000 and
$142,000 is recorded as a current liability, respectively. The holders of the Series A Preferred
Stock are restricted from transferring such shares and the Company has a first refusal right and
may elect to repurchase the shares prior to the mandatory November 30, 2012 redemption. Upon
liquidation and certain transactions treated as liquidations, as defined in the Companys
Certificate of Incorporation, the Series A Preferred Stock has liquidation preferences over the
Companys Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Class A common stock. The number of issued and
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the $1,000 per share repurchase price and the
annual cash dividends are all subject to equitable adjustment whenever there is a stock split,
stock dividend, combination, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event. As long as
there is Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, no dividends may be declared or paid on common stock
of the Company. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to one vote per share for all
matters subject to vote.
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
In December 2008, the Company issued and had outstanding 1,791,768 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock), which are convertible, at the option of the holder,
at $6.70 per share into Class A common stock. The Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive
a dividend which shall be payable in cash when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the
Company at the rate of 15% per annum on each share of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding,
compounding quarterly. To the extent not paid, dividends shall accumulate. Upon liquidation and
certain transactions treated as liquidations, including a qualified public offering, as defined in
the Companys Certificate of Incorporation, the Series B Preferred Stock has liquidation

10. Segment Reporting
The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief
operating decision maker, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, to allocate resources and assess
performance. Based on this information, the Company has determined that it operates in two
operating segments which are also reportable segments: LTL and TL.
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
revenues and operating income. Accordingly, interest expense and other non-operating items are not
reported in segment results. In addition, the Company has disclosed a corporate segment which
includes stock-based compensation expense and acquisition expenses.
The following table reflects certain financial data of the Companys reportable segments (in

11. Subsequent Events
Stock Split
On May 7, 2010, the Company effected a 149.314-for-one stock split of all outstanding shares of its
Class A common stock, Class B common stock, and Series B preferred stock. The condensed
consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively restated to reflect this stock split.
The Companys preferred stock subject to mandatory redemption was not included in the stock split.
In addition, in connection with the initial public offering (IPO), all shares of Class A common
stock, Class B common stock and Series B preferred stock was converted into a single class of new
common stock.
Initial Public Offering
On May 18, 2010, the Company closed its IPO of 10.6 million shares of common stock at an offering
price of $14 per share. The offering included 9.0 million shares sold by the Company and
1.6 million shares sold by certain selling stockholders. The net proceeds to the Company from this
offering were approximately $115.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and
offering expenses.
The Company used the IPO proceeds to prepay $40.4 million of outstanding debt under the RRTS credit
facility, $42.8 million to retire subordinated notes and accrued interest and $31.8 million to
retire the junior subordinated notes and accrued interest, including prepayment penalties of $10.6
million.
On June 4, 2010, the Company closed the sale of an additional 403,286 shares of its common stock at
an offering price of $14 per share. The sale was a result of the partial exercise of the
over-allotment option to purchase additional shares granted to the underwriters in conjunction with
the IPO. The Company will use the proceeds to repay indebtedness under its new credit agreement.
GTS Merger
On February 29, 2008, an affiliate of a principal stockholder of the Company, through Group
Transportation Services Holdings, Inc. (GTS), acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of
Group Transportation Services, Inc. and all of the outstanding member units of GTS Direct, LLC,
both transportation management solutions providers. GTS was formed on February 12, 2008 and there
were no substantive operations from date of inception until February 29, 2008. Simultaneous with
the consummation of the IPO, GTS was merged with a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As a
result of the merger, the stockholders of GTS became stockholders of the Company. The merger agreement
provided that each issued and outstanding share of GTS common stock was converted into 141.848
(adjusted for the IPO stock split) shares of the Companys common stock, or a total of 3,230,324
shares. In addition, the Company assumed all outstanding options to purchase GTS common stock
issued by GTS to its employees.
13
Table of Contents
Transfers of net assets or exchanges of equity interests between entities under common control do
not constitute business combinations. Because the Company and GTS had the same control group
immediately before and after the GTS merger, the GTS merger will be accounted for as a combination
of entities under common control on a historical cost basis in a manner similar to a pooling of
interests.
As a result of the GTS merger taking place in the second quarter
of 2010, the Companys financial information in this Current
Report on Form 10-Q is presented on a stand-alone basis.
On a pro forma combined basis, assuming the merger occurred at the
beginning of the period, revenues would have been $142.8 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Operating income would
have been $7.2 million on a pro forma combined basis for the three
months ended March 31, 2010 and $7.5 million excluding acquisition
transaction expenses of $0.3 million.
Debt Restructuring
In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a new credit agreement on May 18, 2010 with
U.S. Bank National Association. The credit agreement is five-year, $55 million revolving credit
facility collateralized by all assets of the Company and subject to a borrowing base equal to 85%
of the Companys eligible receivables. The new credit agreement contains certain financial
covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum cash flow leverage ratio.
Borrowings under the credit agreement will bear interest at either (a) the Eurocurrency Rate (as
defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 2.5% to 3.0%, or (b)
the Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 1.5%
to 2.5%.
The Company used $43.3 million of borrowings under the new facility, together with restricted cash
of $4.1 million, to retire the remaining RRTS debt, all GTS
debt, and to pay $4.6 million of transaction
and financing expenses.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and
the related notes and other financial information included in our Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements.
Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the factors
discussed in the section Item 1A Risk Factors of Part II below and elsewhere in this
Quarterly Report. This discussion and analysis should also be read in conjunction with
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
relating to our results for the year ended December 31, 2009, set forth in our prospectus filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2010.
Company Overview
We are a leading non-asset based transportation and logistics service provider offering a
full suite of solutions, including customized and expedited less-than-truckload (LTL),
truckload (TL) and intermodal brokerage (transporting a shipment by more than one mode, primary
via rail and truck), and domestic and international air. We utilize a proprietary web-enabled
technology system and a broad third-party network of transportation providers, comprised of
independent contractors (ICs) and purchased power, to serve a diverse customer base in terms of
end market focus and annual freight expenditures. Although we service large national accounts,
we primarily focus on small to mid-size shippers, which we believe represent an expansive and
underserved market. Our business model is highly scalable and flexible, featuring a variable
cost structure that requires minimal investment in transportation equipment and facilities,
thereby enhancing free cash flow generation and returns on our invested capital and assets.
The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the
chief operating decision maker, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, to allocate resources
and assess performance. Based on this information, the Company has determined that it operates
in two operating segments which are also reportable segments: LTL and TL.
Our LTL business involves the pickup, consolidation, linehaul, deconsolidation, and
delivery of LTL shipments throughout the United States and into Mexico, Puerto Rico, and
Canada. With a network of 17 leased service centers and over 200 third-party delivery agents,
we employ a point-to-point LTL model that we believe serves as a competitive advantage over the
traditional hub and spoke LTL model in terms of faster transit times, lower incidence of
damage, and reduced fuel consumption.
Within our TL brokerage business, we arrange the pickup and delivery of TL freight through
our network of nine company dispatch offices and 42 independent brokerage agents primarily
located throughout the Eastern United States and Canada. We offer temperature-controlled, dry
van, and flatbed services and specialize in the transport of refrigerated foods, poultry, and
beverages. We believe this specialization provides consistent shipping volume year-over-year.
Our success principally depends on our ability to generate revenues through our network of
sales personnel and independent brokerage agents and to deliver freight in all modes safely, on
time, and cost-effectively through a suite of solutions tailored to the needs of each client.
Customer shipping demand, over-the-road freight tonnage levels, and equipment capacity, which
are subject to overall economic conditions, ultimately drive increases or decreases in our
revenues. Our ability to operate profitably and generate cash is also impacted by the average
over-the-road length of haul, pricing dynamics, customer mix, and our ability to manage costs
effectively. Within our LTL business, we typically generate revenues by charging our customers
a rate based on shipment weight, distance hauled, and commodity type. This amount is typically
comprised of a base rate, a fuel surcharge, and any applicable service fees. Within our TL
brokerage business, we typically charge a flat rate negotiated on each load based upon the
industry factors noted above and in place at the time of the freight movement.
We incur costs that are directly related to the transportation of freight, including
purchased transportation costs and commissions paid to our brokerage agents. We also incur
indirect costs associated with the transportation of freight that include other operating
costs, such as insurance and
claims. In addition, we incur personnel-related costs and other operating expenses,
collectively discussed herein as other operating expenses, essential to administering our
operations. We continually monitor all components of our cost structure and establish annual
budgets, which are generally used to benchmark costs incurred on a monthly basis.
15
Table of Contents
Purchased transportation costs within our LTL business represent amounts we pay to ICs or
purchased power providers and are generally contractually agreed-upon rates. Purchased
transportation costs within our TL brokerage business are typically based on negotiated rates
for each load hauled. We pay commissions to each brokerage agent based on a percentage of
margin generated. Purchased transportation costs are the largest component of our cost
structure and are generally higher as a percentage of revenues within our TL brokerage business
than within our LTL business. Our purchased transportation costs typically increase or decrease
in proportion to revenues.
Our ability to maintain or grow existing tonnage levels is impacted by overall economic
conditions, shipping demand, and over-the-road freight capacity in North America, as well as by
our ability to offer a competitive solution in terms of pricing, safety, and on-time delivery.
We have experienced significant fluctuations in year-over-year tonnage levels in recent years.
The industry pricing environment also impacts our operating performance. Our LTL pricing
is typically measured by billed revenue per hundredweight and is dictated primarily by factors
such as average shipment size, shipment frequency and consistency, average length of haul,
freight density, and customer and geographic mix. Pricing within our TL brokerage business
generally has fewer influential factors than pricing within our LTL business, but is also
typically driven by shipment frequency and consistency, average length of haul, and customer
and geographic mix. The pricing environment for all of our operations generally becomes more
competitive during periods of lower industry tonnage levels and increased capacity within the
over-the-road freight sector.
The transportation industry is dependent upon the availability of adequate fuel supplies.
Our LTL business typically charges a fuel surcharge based on changes in diesel fuel prices
compared to a national index. Although revenues from fuel surcharges generally more than offset
increases in fuel costs, other operating costs have been, and may continue to be, impacted by
fluctuating fuel prices. The total impact of higher energy prices on other nonfuel-related
expenses is difficult to ascertain. We cannot predict future fuel price fluctuations, the
impact of higher energy prices on other cost elements, recoverability of higher fuel costs
through fuel surcharges, and the effect of fuel surcharges on our overall rate structure or the
total price that we will receive from our customers. Depending on the changes in the fuel rates
and the impact on costs in other fuel- and energy-related areas, operating margins could be
impacted. Whether fuel prices fluctuate or remain constant, our operating income may be
adversely affected if competitive pressures limit our ability to recover fuel surcharges. The
operating income of our TL brokerage business is not impacted directly by changes in fuel rates
as we are able to pass through fuel costs to our customers.
Outlook
As a result of our May 2010 initial public offering, we will incur reduced interest
expense primarily attributable to the reduction of approximately $115.0 million of our
outstanding indebtedness. This reduction in interest expense will be partially offset by the
incurrence of additional indebtedness in connection with the GTS merger. In addition, in
connection with the refinancing of our credit agreement, we will incur a one-time charge,
expected to be recognized in the second quarter of 2010, of
approximately $16.9 million. This
charge consists of (i) approximately $10.6 million of prepayment penalties, (ii) the payment of
approximately $2.6 million of unaccreted discount on our junior subordinated notes, (iii)
the non-cash write-off of approximately $2.2 million of deferred
debt issuance costs, and (iv) the payment of an aggregate of $1.5
million for the termination of our and GTS management and consulting
agreements.
In addition, as a result of the offering, we are required to implement additional
corporate governance practices and to adhere to a variety of reporting requirements and
accounting rules. Specifically, we are required to file periodic and other reports with the SEC
under the applicable U.S. federal securities laws or to comply with the requirements of U.S.
federal securities laws applicable to public companies, such as Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In order to comply with these and other Sarbanes-Oxley Act
obligations, we anticipate that we will incur approximately $1.0 million in
annual legal, insurance, financial compliance, and other public company expenses that we
did not incur as a private company prior to the IPO.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2009
Revenues
Consolidated revenues increased by $25.0 million, or 23.9%, to $129.4 million during the first
quarter of 2010 from $104.4 million during the first quarter of 2009.
As a result of the addition of new customers and improvements in our LTL pricing, LTL revenues
increased by $21.2 million, or 30.2%, to $91.3 million during the first quarter of 2010 from
$70.1 million during the first quarter of 2009. During the first quarter of 2010, our LTL tonnage
increased by 29.6% quarter over quarter, which in turn was primarily attributable to an increase in
the number of customers, while LTL tonnage in the U.S. over-the-road freight sector declined 9.7%
during the same period. Our trend resulted primarily from a 25% increase in our monthly average
number of LTL customers during the first quarter of 2010 compared to first quarter of 2009 and the
acquisition of certain assets of Bullet Freight Systems, Inc. (Bullet) in December 2009. During
the first quarter of 2010, our LTL revenue per hundredweight, including fuel surcharges, increased
3.0% from the first quarter of 2009, while LTL revenue per hundredweight in the U.S. over-the-road
freight sector declined 6.6% during the same period.
TL brokerage revenues increased by $3.8 million, or 11.2%, to $38.2 million during the first
quarter of 2010 from $34.4 million during the first quarter of 2009, primarily due to increases in
market pricing and tonnage, as well as the continued expansion of our TL brokerage agent network.
Purchased Transportation Costs
Purchased transportation costs increased by $18.8 million, or 22.9%, to $100.9 million during
the first quarter of 2010 from $82.1 million during the first quarter of 2009.
LTL purchased transportation costs increased by $15.4 million, or 29.6%, to $67.2 million
during the first quarter of 2010 from $51.8 million during the first quarter of 2009, and decreased
modestly as a percentage of LTL revenues to 73.5% from 73.8%. This is primarily a result of
improved freight density throughout our network offset, in part, by the effects of rising fuel
costs on gross profit percentages.
TL purchased transportation costs increased by $3.5 million, or 11.5%, to $33.9 million during
the first quarter of 2010 from $30.4 million during the first quarter of 2009, and increased
slightly as a percentage of TL revenues to 88.8% from 88.5%, primary due to expansion of our TL
brokerage agent network and payment of related commissions to new agents.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses (which reflect the sum of the personnel and related benefits, other
operating expenses and acquisition transaction expenses line items shown in our condensed
consolidated statements of operations) increased by $1.7 million, or 8.6%, to $21.3 million during
the first quarter of 2010 from $19.6 million during the first quarter of 2009.
Within our LTL business, other operating expenses increased by $1.9 million, or 11.3%, to
$18.5 million during the first quarter of 2010 from $16.6 million during the first quarter of 2009.
Due to our scalable operating model and targeted cost reduction initiatives, LTL other operating
expenses as a percentage of LTL revenues decreased to 20.3% during the first quarter of 2010 from
23.7% during the first quarter of 2009.
Within our TL brokerage business, other operating expenses declined $0.2 million, or 9.3%, to
$2.6 million during the first quarter of 2010 from $2.8 million during the first quarter of 2009.
As a percentage of TL brokerage revenues, this represents a decrease to 6.7% from 8.2% and is
primarily due to increases in market pricing and tonnage, as well as continued expansion of our TL
brokerage agent network.
Other operating expenses that were not allocated to our LTL or TL brokerage businesses were
$0.2 million during both the first quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2009. The $0.2 million
incurred during the first quarter of 2010 primarily represents acquisition transaction expenses and
stocked based compensation expense. The $0.2 million incurred during the first quarter of 2009
primarily represents stock-based compensation expense.

Table of Contents
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased to $0.7 million during the first quarter of 2010 from
$0.6 million during the first quarter of 2009. Within our LTL business, depreciation and
amortization increased to $0.5 million during the first quarter of 2010 from $0.4 million during
the first quarter of 2009, primarily as a result of our decision to replace high-cost leased
trailers with used trailers. Depreciation and amortization within our TL business was $0.2 million
during both the first quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2009.
Operating Income
Operating income increased by $4.4 million, or 206.3%, to $6.5 million during the first
quarter of 2010 from $2.1 million during the first quarter of 2009. As a percentage of revenues,
operating income increased to 5.0% during the first quarter of 2010 from 2.0% during the first
quarter of 2009.
Within our LTL business, operating income increased by $3.9 million, or 288.1%, to
$5.2 million from $1.3 million, which represents an increase as a percentage of LTL revenues to
5.7% from 1.9%.
Within our TL business, operating income increased by $0.5 million, or 61.6%, to $1.5 million
from $1.0 million, which represents an increase as a percentage of TL brokerage revenues to 4.0%
from 2.8%.
Interest Expense
Interest expense
increased by $1.5 million, or 52.3%, to $4.4 million during the first quarter of 2010 from $2.9
million during the first quarter of 2009, primarily as a result of incremental debt financing to support the Bullet acquisition.
Income Tax
Income tax provision was $0.9 million during the first quarter of 2010 compared to a benefit
of $0.2 million during the first quarter of 2009. The effective tax rate was 42.2% during the first
quarter of 2010 compared to a benefit of 29.0% during the first quarter of 2009. The effective
income tax rate in each year varies from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to state
and Canadian income taxes as well as the impact of items causing permanent differences.
Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Stockholders
Net income available to common stockholders was $0.7 million during the first quarter of 2010
compared to a net loss of $1.0 million during the first quarter of 2009. Net income available to
common stockholders during the first quarter of 2010 was impacted by $0.5 million of accretion of
Series B preferred stock dividends, compared to an impact of $0.4 million during the first quarter
of 2009. Upon completion of our IPO, our shares of Series B preferred stock were converted into
shares of our common stock and such accretion was eliminated as of the date of conversion.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, our primary sources of cash have been borrowings under our revolving credit
facility, sale of subordinated notes, equity contributions, and cash flows from operations. Our
primary cash needs are to fund normal working capital requirements, to finance capital
expenditures, and to repay our indebtedness. As of March 31, 2010, we had $1.3 million in cash and
cash equivalents, $21.9 million in working capital, and $9.7 million of availability under our
previous credit facility.
On May 18, 2010, we consummated our initial public offering (IPO). The net proceeds we
received from this offering were $115.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts,
commissions and related expenses. We used the IPO proceeds to prepay $40.4 million of outstanding
debt under our previous credit facility, $42.8 million to retire subordinated notes and accrued
interest and $31.8 million to retire the junior subordinated notes and accrued interest, including
prepayment penalties of $10.6 million.

In connection with our IPO, we entered into a new credit agreement on May 18, 2010 with U.S.
Bank National Association, a national banking association, acting as administrative agent for the
lender group. The credit agreement consists of a revolving line of credit up to a maximum aggregate
amount of $55 million, of which up to $5 million may be used for Swing Line Loans (as defined in
the credit agreement) and up to $8 million may be used for letters of credit. The credit facility
matures on May 18, 2015.
Advances under the credit agreement will bear interest at either (a) the Eurocurrency Rate (as
defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 2.5% to 3.0%, or (b)
the Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 1.5%
to 2.5%.
Our credit agreement requires us to meet financial tests, including a minimum fixed charge
coverage ratio and a maximum cash flow leverage ratio. In addition, our credit agreement contains
negative covenants limiting, among other things, additional indebtedness, capital expenditures,
transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments and
advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions, and other matters customarily restricted
in such agreements. Our credit agreement also contains customary events of default, including
payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, events of
bankruptcy and insolvency, failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the credit
agreement to be in full force and effect, and a change of control of our business.
We used $43.3 million of borrowings under the new facility, together with restricted cash of
$4.1 million, to retire our remaining previous debt, all GTS debt, as well as to pay $4.6 million
of transaction and financing expenses.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash provided by (used in) our operating activities primarily consists of net income (loss)
adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, deferred interest,
share-based compensation, provision for bad debts, deferred taxes and the effect of changes in
working capital and other activities.
Cash provided by operating activities was $2.6 million during the first quarter of 2010 and
consisted of $1.2 million of net income plus $3.9 million of non-cash items, consisting primarily
of depreciation and amortization, deferred interest and deferred taxes, less $2.5 million of net
cash used for working capital purposes and other activities.
Cash used for working capital during the first quarter of 2010 primarily reflected a
$7.6 million increase in accounts receivable and was offset by a $0.1 million decrease in prepaid
expenses and other assets, a $4.5 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, and a
$0.5 million increase in other liabilities.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2010. Our first
quarter 2010 cash used in investing activities primarily reflects $0.3 million of capital
expenditures used to support our operations.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities was $1.7 million during the first quarter of 2010. Our first
quarter 2010 cash used in financing activities reflects net borrowings of $1.6 million and payments
of $0.1 million for capital leases.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States requires that we make estimates and assumptions. In certain
circumstances, those estimates and assumptions can affect amounts reported in the accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. In preparing our financial
statements, we have made our best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the
financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. We base our estimates on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. Application of the
accounting policies described below involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to
future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. The
following is a brief discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the estimated fair value assigned to the
net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of a business acquired. Goodwill is tested for
impairment at least annually in our second quarter using a two-step process that begins with an
estimation of the fair value at the reporting unit level. Our reporting units are our operating
segments as this is the lowest level for which discrete financial information is prepared and
regularly reviewed by management. The impairment test for goodwill involves comparing the fair
value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the
reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step is required to measure the goodwill impairment
loss. The second step includes hypothetically valuing all the tangible and intangible assets of the
reporting unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Then, the
implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill is compared to the carrying amount of that
goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting units goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of
the goodwill, we recognize an impairment loss in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the
carrying amount. For purposes of our impairment test, the fair value of our reporting units are
calculated based upon an average of an income fair value approach and market fair value approach.
Other intangible assets recorded consist of definite lived customer lists. We evaluate our
other intangible assets for impairment when current facts or circumstances indicate that the
carrying value of the assets to be held and used may not be recoverable.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at
enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are recovered or settled. The use of
estimates by management is required to determine income tax expense, deferred tax assets and any
related valuation allowance and deferred tax liabilities. The determination of a valuation
allowance is based on estimates of future taxable income by jurisdiction in which the deferred tax
assets will be recoverable. In making such a determination, all available positive and negative
evidence, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax
planning strategies and recent financial operations, is considered. When evaluating the need for a
valuation allowance as of March 31, 2010, we considered that we achieved cumulative net income
before provision for income taxes for the most recent three years, after considering the impact of
offering expenses. Further, we expect to achieve cost savings from the restructuring and synergies
related to the Bullet acquisition and a reduction of interest expense related to debt restructuring
that will further increase our ability to realize the benefits of the net operating loss carry
forwards. The tax deductibility of the goodwill related to our acquisitions will reduce taxable
income in future years; however, under our current structure, we estimate that we will generate
taxable income in 2010 and will utilize all existing net operating losses carry forwards before
their expiration. These estimates can be affected by a number of factors, including possible tax
audits or general economic conditions or competitive pressures that could affect future taxable
income. Although management believes
that the estimates are reasonable, the deferred tax asset and any related valuation allowance
will need to be adjusted if managements estimates of future taxable income differ from actual
taxable income. An adjustment to the deferred tax asset and any related valuation allowance could
materially impact the consolidated results of operations. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009,
there was no valuation allowance recorded.

Table of Contents
At March 31, 2010 we had $37.1 million of gross federal net operating losses which are
available to reduce federal income taxes in future years and expire in the years 2025 through 2029.
We are subject to federal and state tax examinations for all tax years subsequent to December 31,
2005. Although the pre-2006 years are no longer subject to examinations by the Internal Revenue
Service and various state taxing authorities, NOL carryforwards generated in those years may still
be adjusted upon examination by the IRS or state taxing authorities if they have been or will be
used in the future.
Revenue Recognition
LTL revenue is recorded when all of the following have occurred: an agreement of sale exists;
pricing is fixed or determinable; and collection of revenue is reasonably assured. We use a
percentage of completion method to recognize revenue, which results in an allocation of revenue
between reporting periods based on the distinctive phases of each LTL transaction completed in each
reporting period, with expenses recognized as incurred. In accordance with ASC 605-20-25-13,
management believes that this is the most appropriate method for LTL revenue recognition based on
the multiple distinct phases of a typical LTL transaction, which is in contrast to the single phase
of a typical TL transaction.
TL revenue is recorded when all of the following have occurred: an agreement of sale exists;
pricing is fixed or determinable; delivery has occurred; and our obligation to fulfill a
transaction is complete and collection of revenue is reasonable assured. This occurs when we
complete the delivery of a shipment.
We typically recognize revenue on a gross basis, as opposed to a net basis, because we bear
the risks and benefits associated with revenue-generated activities by, among other things, (1)
acting as a principal in the transaction, (2) establishing prices, (3) managing all aspects of the
shipping process and (4) taking the risk of loss for collection, delivery and returns.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Commodity Risk
In our LTL and TL businesses, our primary market risk centers on fluctuations in fuel prices,
which can affect our profitability. Diesel fuel prices fluctuate significantly due to economic,
political, and other factors beyond our control. Our ICs and purchased power pass along the cost of
diesel fuel to us, and we in turn attempt to pass along some or all of these costs to our customers
through fuel surcharge revenue programs. There can be no assurance that our fuel surcharge revenue
programs will be effective in the future. Market pressures may limit our ability to pass along our
fuel surcharges.
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to changes in interest rates on our revolving credit facility. The interest
rate on our credit facility fluctuates based on the prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin.
Assuming our new $55.0 million revolving credit facility entered into subsequent to the end of the
quarter ended March 31, 2010 was fully drawn, a 1.0% increase in the borrowing rate would increase
our annual interest expense by $0.5 million. We do not use derivative financial instruments for
speculative trading purposes and are not engaged in any interest rate swap agreements.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures for financial reporting to give
reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports submitted under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. These controls and procedures also give
reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in such reports is accumulated and
communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, together with management, conducted
an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2010,
pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) were effective such that information relating to the
Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports, (i)
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time frames specified in SEC rules and
forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to Company management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely discussion regarding
disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our principal executive officer and chief financial officer, does
not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will
prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems objectives
will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource
constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further,
because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide
absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control
issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent
limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that
breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls also can be circumvented by the
individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of
the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about
the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in
achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of
controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with
policies or procedures.
