Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Organization, Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is headquartered in Cudahy, Wisconsin and has three operating segments: less-than-truckload (“LTL”), truckload logistics (“TL”), and transportation management solutions (“TMS”). Within its LTL business, the Company operates 40 LTL service centers throughout the United States complemented by relationships with over 200 delivery agents. Within its TL business, the Company operates a network of 28 TL service centers, five freight consolidation and inventory management centers, and 21 company dispatch offices. The TL business is augmented by 79 independent brokerage agents. The Company operates its TMS business from five service centers and nine dispatch offices throughout the United States. From pickup to delivery, the Company leverages relationships with a diverse group of third-party carriers to provide scalable capacity and reliable, customized service to customers in North America. The Company operates primarily in the United States.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the Company's opinion, these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except for the measurement period adjustment related to purchase accounting discussed in Note 2, necessary for a fair presentation of the operations for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of 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.

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 three operating segments, which are also its reportable segments: LTL, TL, and TMS.

The acquisitions of CTL, D&E, CTW, R&M, EFS, Central Cal, A&A, and DCT (collectively, "2012 acquisitions") are considered individually immaterial, but material in the aggregate. The acquisitions of Wando Trucking, Adrian Carriers, Marisol, TA Drayage, G.W Palmer, and YES Trans (collectively, "2013 acquisitions") are considered individually immaterial, but material in the aggregate. The following table summarizes, in the aggregate, the allocation of the purchase price paid to the fair value of the net assets for the 2012 and 2013 acquisitions (in thousands):



	2013 Acquisitions			2012 Acquisitions
Accounts receivable	$	22,702		$	15,175
Other current assets	871			1,240
Property and equipment	14,399			32,387
Goodwill	77,041			75,135
Customer relationship intangible assets	11,681			5,932
Other noncurrent assets	12			(377		)
Accounts payable and other liabilities	(26,047		)	(40,777		)
Total	$	100,659		$	88,715

The goodwill for the acquisitions, in the aggregate, is a result of acquiring and retaining the existing workforces and expected synergies from integrating the operations into the Company. Purchase accounting is considered final for the 2012 acquisitions of CTL, D&E, CTW, EFS, and R&M, preliminary for the 2012 acquisitions of Central Cal, A&A, and DCT with respect to deferred taxes and goodwill, and preliminary for the 2013 acquisitions as final information was not available as of September 30, 2013. Measurement period adjustments related to certain 2012 acquisitions were recorded prospectively as they were not considered material to the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012. These measurement period adjustments from previously recorded opening balance sheets related primarily to fair value measurement changes in customer relationship intangible assets and changes in acquired deferred tax assets and liabilities.

From the dates of acquisition through September 30, 2012, the 2012 acquisitions contributed revenues to the Company of $23.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and $32.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012,

3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

4. Fair Value Measurement

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements for certain financial assets and liabilities requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions or external inputs from inactive markets.

A financial asset’s or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents information, as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, about the Company’s financial liabilities. Contingent purchase price related to acquisitions is measured at fair value on a recurring basis, according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine fair value (in thousands):

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Fair Value
Contingent purchase price related to acquisitions	$	—	$	—	$	22,429	$	22,429
Total liabilities at fair value	$	—	$	—	$	22,429	$	22,429

Total liabilities at fair value	$	—	$	—	$	20,907	$	20,907

In measuring the fair value of the contingent purchase price liability, the Company used an income approach that considers the expected future earnings of the acquired businesses and the resulting contingent payments, discounted at a risk-adjusted rate.

5. Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 consisted of the following (in thousands):



	September 30, 2013			December 31, 2012
Senior debt:
Revolving credit facility	$	33,000		$	—
Term loan	172,813			161,500

Less: Current maturities	(9,844		)	(17,000		)
Total long-term debt, net of current maturities	$	195,969		$	144,500

On August 3, 2012, the Company entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement with U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”) and other lenders, which increased the revolving credit facility from $100.0 million to $125.0 million and the term loan from $140.0 million to $170.0 million. On August 9, 2013, the Company entered into a fourth amended and restated credit agreement (the "credit agreement") with U.S. Bank and other lenders, which increased the revolving credit facility to $200.0 million and the term loan to $175.0 million. The credit facility matures on August 9, 2018. Principal on the term loan is due in quarterly installments of $2.2 million per quarter through June 30, 2014. As of September 30, 2014, quarterly principal payments on the term loan increase to $3.3 million through June 30, 2016 and increase to $4.4 million beginning September 30, 2016 through June 30, 2018. Any remaining outstanding balance under the credit agreement is due August 9, 2018. The Company categorizes the borrowings under the credit agreement as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as defined in Note 4. The carrying value of the Company's long-term debt approximates fair value as the debt agreement bears interest based on prevailing variable market rates currently available. The credit agreement is collateralized by all assets of the Company and contains certain financial covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum cash flow leverage ratio. Additionally, the credit agreement contains negative covenants limiting, among other things, additional indebtedness, capital expenditures, transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments, advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions, and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. As of and at all times during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the credit agreement. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at either (a) the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 2.0% to 3.3%, or (b) the Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 1.0% to 2.3%. The revolving credit facility also provides for the issuance of up to $30.0 million in letters of credit. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $10.8 million. Total availability under the revolving credit facility was $156.2 million as of September 30, 2013. As of September 30, 2013, the average interest rate on the credit agreement was 3.0%.

Ending balance	$	487,745	$	325,272		$	487,745	$	325,272

In January 2013, the underwriters for the Company's public offering of common stock exercised in full their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 525,000 shares of common stock at a price of $17.25 per share to the public. The sale of the additional shares resulted in additional net proceeds to the Company of approximately $8.5 million after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated expenses.

In August 2013, the Company issued 1.5 million shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $27.00 per share for an aggregate offering proceeds of $38.4 million, net of $2.3 million of underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses.

7. Preferred Stock

Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock

In March 2007, the Company issued 5,000 shares of non-voting Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”), which were mandatorily redeemable by the Company at $1,000 per share, in cash, on November 30, 2012. The Series A Preferred Stock received cash dividends annually on April 30 at an annual rate equal to $40 per share. In March 2012, the Company repurchased the 5,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and paid the corresponding dividends through the date of the repurchase.

8. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, diluted earnings per share was calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common stock outstanding plus stock equivalents that would arise from the assumed exercise of stock options and conversion of warrants using the treasury stock method. There is no difference, for any of the periods presented, in the amount of net income 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 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2013	2012	2013	2012
Basic weighted average stock outstanding	36,407	30,859	35,666	30,808
Effect of dilutive securities
Employee stock options	424	446	463	450
Warrants	1,291	941	1,292	916
Restricted stock units	69	14	48	46
Diluted weighted average stock outstanding	38,191	32,260	37,469	32,220

The Company had additional stock options and warrants outstanding of 308,698 as of September 30, 2012. These shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were not assumed to be exercised under the

Table of Contents

treasury stock method or were anti-dilutive. As of September 30, 2013, all stock options and warrants were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

9. Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 38.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to 38.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the effective income tax rate was 38.7% compared to 38.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. In determining the 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, and adjustments for permanent differences.

10. Guarantees

The Company provides a guarantee for a portion of the value of certain independent contractors' ("IC") leased tractors. The guarantees expire at various dates through 2020. The potential maximum exposure under these lease guarantees was approximately $7.4 million as of September 30, 2013. The potential maximum exposure represents the Company’s commitment on remaining lease payments on guaranteed leases as of September 30, 2013. However, upon an IC default, the Company has the option to purchase the tractor or return the tractor to the leasing company if the residual value is greater than the Company’s guarantee. Alternatively, the Company can contract another IC to assume the lease. There were no material IC defaults during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and payments made by the Company under the guarantee were de minimis.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a defendant in several property and other claims. In the aggregate, the Company does not believe any of these claims will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company maintains liability insurance coverage for claims in excess of $500,000 per occurrence and cargo coverage for claims in excess of $100,000 per occurrence. The Company believes it has adequate insurance to cover losses in excess of the deductible amount. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had reserves for estimated uninsured losses of $5.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

12. Related Party Transactions

The Company has an advisory agreement with HCI Equity Management L.P. (“HCI”) to pay a transaction fee for each acquisition and an annual advisory fee of $0.1 million. The Company paid an aggregate of $0.1 million to HCI for the advisory fee and travel expenses during both the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and an aggregate of $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

13. Segment Reporting

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 is not an operating segment and includes acquisition transaction expenses, corporate salaries, and stock-based compensation expense.

ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT’S 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included in this 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 Item 1A “Risk Factors” of Part II below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion and analysis should also be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” relating to our results for the year ended December 31, 2012, set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2013.

Overview

We are a leading asset-light transportation and logistics service provider offering a full suite of solutions, including customized and expedited less-than-truckload (“LTL”), truckload logistics (“TL”), transportation management solutions (“TMS”), intermodal solutions (transporting a shipment by more than one mode, primarily via rail and truck), freight consolidation, inventory management, expedited services, international freight forwarding, customs brokerage, and comprehensive global supply chain solutions. We utilize a broad third-party network of transportation providers, comprised of independent contractors (“ICs”) and purchased power providers, 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.

We have three operating segments:

Less-than-Truckload. 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 40 LTL 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.

Truckload Logistics. Within our TL business, we arrange the pickup, delivery, freight consolidation, and inventory management of TL freight through our network of 28 TL service centers, five freight consolidation and inventory management centers, 21 company dispatch offices, and 79 independent brokerage agents primarily located throughout the United States and Canada. We offer temperature-controlled, dry van, intermodal drayage, 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.

Transportation Management Solutions. Within our TMS business, we offer a “one-stop” domestic and international transportation and logistics solution, including access to the most cost-effective and time-sensitive modes of transportation within our broad network. Specifically, our TMS offering includes pricing, contract management, transportation mode and carrier selection, freight tracking, freight bill payment and audit, cost reporting and analysis, and dispatch. Our customized TMS offering is designed to allow our customers to reduce operating costs, redirect resources to core competencies, improve supply chain efficiency, and enhance customer service. Our TMS segment also includes domestic and international air and ocean transportation services and customs brokerage.

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 customer. Customer shipping demand, over-the-road freight tonnage levels, and equipment capacity ultimately drive increases or decreases in our revenues. Our ability to operate profitably and generate cash is also impacted by purchased transportation costs, fuel costs, 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 business, we typically charge a flat rate negotiated on each load hauled. Within our TMS business, we typically charge a variable rate on each shipment, in addition to transaction or service fees appropriate for the solution we have provided to meet a specific customer’s needs.

We incur costs that are directly related to the transportation of freight, including purchased transportation costs and commissions paid to our agents based on the net revenue margin. 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

Table of Contents

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.

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 business are typically based on negotiated rates for each load hauled. Within our TMS business, purchased transportation costs include payments made to our purchased power providers, which are generally contractually agreed-upon rates. Purchased transportation costs are the largest component of our cost structure. 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 compete effectively in terms of pricing, safety, and on-time delivery.

The pricing environment in the transportation industry also impacts our operating performance. Our LTL pricing is typically measured by billed revenue per hundredweight, which is often referred to as “yield.” Our LTL pricing is dictated primarily by factors such as shipment size, shipment frequency and consistency, length of haul, freight density, and customer and geographic mix. Pricing within our TL business generally has fewer influential factors than pricing within our LTL business, but is also typically driven by shipment frequency and consistency, length of haul, and customer and geographic mix. Since we offer both LTL and TL shipping as part of our TMS offering, pricing within our TMS segment is impacted by similar factors. 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 and the price of fuel. Fuel prices have fluctuated dramatically over recent years. Within our LTL business, our ICs and purchased power providers 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. Although revenues from fuel surcharges generally 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, our operating margins could be impacted. Within our TL and TMS businesses, we pass fuel costs through to our customers. As a result, our operating income in these businesses is less impacted by changes in fuel prices.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

Revenues

Consolidated revenues increased by $84.0 million, or 30.1%, to $363.2 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $279.2 million during the third quarter of 2012, the majority of which was attributable to the impact of our 2012 and 2013 acquisitions.

LTL revenues increased by $11.7 million, or 8.9%, to $144.2 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $132.5 million during the third quarter of 2012. This growth was driven by the acquisition of EFS, which contributed $6.5 million of the revenue increase, as well as quarter-over-quarter organic LTL tonnage growth of 13.0%, driven by an increase in the number of LTL shipments. These increases were slightly offset by a 1.5% decline in weight per shipment. Revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel, decreased 1.6% quarter-over-quarter resulting from the addition of EFS, which has a lower revenue per hundredweight due to freight mix and length of haul. Excluding EFS, revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel, increased 1.3%.

TL revenues increased by $45.9 million, or 36.9%, to $170.1 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $124.2 million during the third quarter of 2012. The acquisitions of R&M, Central Cal, A&A, DCT, Wando Trucking, TA Drayage, G.W. Palmer, and YES Trans collectively contributed $32.3 million of the revenue increase. The remaining $13.6 million of the revenue increase was driven by load growth due to the expansion of our IC network, as well as the continued increase in the utilization of our broker agent network.

TMS revenues increased by $26.9 million, or 112.6%, to $50.9 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $24.0 million during the third quarter of 2012. This growth was primarily driven by our acquisitions of Adrian Carriers and Marisol.

Purchased Transportation Costs

Purchased transportation costs increased by $57.2 million, or 29.1%, to $253.2 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $196.0 million during the third quarter of 2012.

LTL purchased transportation costs increased by $7.4 million, or 7.7%, to $103.1 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $95.7 million during the third quarter of 2012, and decreased as a percentage of LTL revenues to 71.5% during the third quarter of 2013 from 72.3% during the third quarter of 2012. This improvement was primarily a result of continued additional lane density partially offset by the expansion of new geographic regions. Excluding fuel surcharges, our average linehaul cost per mile decreased slightly to $1.23 during the third quarter of 2013 from $1.24 during the second quarter of 2012.

TL purchased transportation costs increased by $30.9 million, or 36.5%, to $115.5 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $84.6 million during the third quarter of 2012. This increase was the result of our TL acquisitions of R&M, Central Cal, A&A, DCT, Wando Trucking, TA Drayage, G.W. Palmer, and YES Trans, which collectively contributed $21.7 million of the increase, as well as the expansion of our IC network and increased utilization of our broker agent network. TL purchased transportation costs as a percentage of TL revenues decreased to 67.9% during the third quarter of 2013 from 68.1% during the third quarter of 2012.

TMS purchased transportation costs increased by $19.5 million, or 113.3%, to $36.6 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $17.1 million during the third quarter of 2012, primarily due to the acquisitions of Adrian Carriers and Marisol. TMS purchased transportation costs as a percentage of TMS revenues increased to 71.8% during the third quarter of 2013 from 71.6% during the third quarter of 2012 primarily as a result of the acquisitions of Adrian Carriers and Marisol.

Other Operating Expenses

Other operating expenses, which reflect the sum of personnel and related benefits, other operating expenses, and acquisition transaction expenses shown in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, increased by $19.6 million, or 31.3%, to $82.3 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $62.7 million during the third quarter of 2012.

Within our LTL business, other operating expenses increased by $3.5 million, or 13.3%, to $29.6 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $26.1 million during the third quarter of 2012. The increase was primarily the result of our acquisition of

EFS, additional labor incurred to assist our recently opened service centers, increased insurance costs, and an increase in employee costs due to one more payroll day quarter-over-quarter. These additional costs were partially offset by a $1.7 million contingent purchase price adjustment related to a quarterly re-forecast of future expectations for EFS based on performance year-to-date. As a percentage of LTL revenues, other operating expenses increased to 20.5% from 19.7%.

Within our TL business, other operating expenses increased by $10.0 million, or 32.6%, to $40.7 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $30.7 million during the third quarter of 2012, primarily as a result of our acquisitions of R&M, Central Cal, A&A, DCT, Wando Trucking, TA Drayage, G.W. Palmer, and YES Trans, which accounted for an aggregate of $9.5 million of the total increase. Additionally, we incurred additional costs associated with lost productivity in drayage and warehousing, increased

Table of Contents

insurance costs associated with claims developing above our retention levels, and increased employee costs associated with one more payroll day quarter-over-quarter. These increased costs were offset by the transition of certain employee drivers to ICs as well as a $1.6 million contingent purchase price adjustment related to a quarterly re-forecast of future expectations based on performance year-to-date for all TL acquisitions with earnout thresholds. As a percentage of TL revenues, other operating expenses decreased to 23.9% from 24.7%.

Within our TMS business, other operating expenses increased by $5.5 million, or 143.5%, to $9.4 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $3.9 million during the third quarter of 2012, primarily as a result of our acquisitions of Adrian Carriers and Marisol. TMS other operating expenses, as a percentage of TMS revenues, increased to 18.5% during the third quarter of 2013 from 16.2% during the third quarter of 2012.

Other operating expenses that were not allocated to our LTL, TL, or TMS businesses increased to $2.7 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $2.1 million during the third quarter of 2012, primarily driven by an increase in personnel and related benefits.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $4.0 million during the third quarter of 2013 and $2.4 million during the third quarter of 2012, reflecting increases in property, plant, and equipment attributable to our acquisitions and continued revenue growth. Within our LTL business, depreciation and amortization was $0.6 million during both the third quarter of 2013 and third quarter of 2012. Depreciation and amortization within our TL business was $3.1 million during the third quarter of 2013 and $1.6 million during the third quarter of 2012. Within our TMS business, depreciation and amortization was $0.3 million during the third quarter of 2013 and $0.2 million during the third quarter of 2012. There was minimal depreciation and amortization recorded at corporate.

Operating Income

Operating income increased by $5.7 million, or 31.4%, to $23.7 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $18.0 million during the third quarter of 2012, primarily as a result of the factors above.

The effective tax rate was 38.7% during the third quarter of 2013 and 38.5% during the third quarter of 2012. The effective income tax rate varies from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to state income taxes as well as the impact of items causing permanent differences.

Net Income Available to Common Stockholders

Net income available to common stockholders was $13.2 million during the third quarter of 2013 compared to $9.9 million during the third quarter of 2012.

As a percentage of TMS revenues, TMS purchased transportation costs decreased to 69.8% during the first nine months of 2013 from 71.6% during the first nine months of 2012, primarily due to the acquisitions of CTL and Adrian Carriers, which offer higher margin services, partially offset by lower margins at Marisol.

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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, increased by $57.0 million, or 33.2%, to $228.6 million during the first nine months of 2013 from $171.6 million during the first nine months of 2012.

Within our LTL business, other operating expenses increased by $16.9 million, or 24.0%, to $87.1 million during the first nine months of 2013 from $70.2 million during the first nine months of 2012, primarily as a result of the incremental costs associated with the 18.0% increase in shipment count, costs associated with the opening of nine new terminals, expanded infrastructure costs to support new business initiatives and organic revenue growth, and our August 2012 acquisition of EFS, which contributed $4.2 million of the total increase. These additional costs were partially offset by $2.2 million of contingent purchase price adjustments related to quarterly re-forecasts of future expectations for EFS based on performance year-to-date. As a percentage of LTL revenues, other operating expenses increased to 20.6% during the first nine months of 2013 from 18.4% during the first nine months of 2012, primarily due to the inclusion of employee drivers of EFS and owned equipment expense in other operating expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of cash have been borrowings under our revolving credit facility, cash flows from operations, sales of securities, and equity contributions. Our primary cash needs are and have been to execute our acquisition strategy, fund normal working capital requirements, finance capital expenditures, and repay our indebtedness. As of September 30, 2013, we had $8.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, $156.2 million of availability under our credit facility, and $89.2 million in net working capital. As we continue to execute on our acquisition and growth strategy, additional financing may be necessary within the next 12 months.

Although we can provide no assurances, amounts available under our credit facility, net cash provided by operating activities, and available cash and cash equivalents should be adequate to finance working capital and planned capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Thereafter, we may find it necessary to obtain additional equity or debt financing as we continue to execute our business strategy.

Our credit facility consists of a $175.0 million term loan and a revolving credit facility up to a maximum aggregate amount of $200.0 million, of which up to $10.0 million may be used for Swing Line Loans (as defined in the credit agreement) and up to $30.0 million may be used for letters of credit. The credit facility matures on August 9, 2018.

Advances under our credit facility bear interest at either (a) the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 2.0% to 3.3% or (b) the Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 1.0% to 2.3%.

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, 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. As of and at all times during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

Cash provided by operating activities primarily consists of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, provision for bad debts, deferred taxes, and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.

The difference between our $37.8 million net income and the $24.0 million cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to a $26.6 million increase in our accounts receivable, a $7.1 million decrease in accrued expenses, excess tax benefit on stock-based compensation of $3.8 million and a gain on the disposal of equipment of $0.5 million, which was primarily offset by a $0.8 million increase in accounts payable and a $5.5 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets, $12.9 million of depreciation and amortization, $1.0 million of provision for bad debt, $1.2

million of shared-based compensation, and deferred tax provision of $2.9 million. The overall changes in cash flow from operating activities were impacted by both the organic and acquisition growth during the third quarter of 2013.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $123.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, which primarily reflects $100.7 million used for our acquisitions of Wando Trucking, Adrian Carriers, Marisol, TA Drayage, G.W. Palmer, and YES Trans, and $24.4 million of capital expenditures used to support our operations, offset by the proceeds from the sale of equipment of $1.3 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities was $96.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, which primarily reflects our August 2013 offering of 1.5 million shares of our common stock, which yielded proceeds of $52.5 million, net borrowings of $44.3 million under our credit agreement, and excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation of $3.8 million offset by payments of $2.4 million for contingent earnouts and $1.5 million for debt issuance costs. We used the net proceeds from our stock offering to repay the outstanding indebtedness under our revolving line of credit included in our credit facility.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we applied the same critical accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 that affect judgments and estimates of amounts recorded for certain assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses.



ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Commodity Risk

In our LTL, TL, and TMS 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 providers 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 and term loan. The interest rate on our revolving credit facility and term loan fluctuate based on the prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Assuming our $200.0 million revolving credit facility was fully drawn and taking into consideration the outstanding term loan of $172.8 million as of September 30, 2013, a 1.0% increase in the borrowing rate would increase our annual interest expense by $3.7 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

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, with reasonable assurance, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Table of Contents

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, 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. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, misstatements, errors, and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been or will be prevented or 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, internal controls may become inadequate as a result of changes in conditions, or through the deterioration of the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION



ITEM 1.	LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we are involved in litigation and proceedings in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in any legal proceeding that we believe would have a material effect on our business or financial condition.



ITEM 1A.	RISK FACTORS.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the factors described in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending June 30, 2013 filed with the SEC on August 8, 2013 in analyzing an investment in our common stock. If any suck risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations would likely suffer, the trading price of our common stock would decline, and you could lose all or part of the money you paid for our common stock.

In addition, the risk factors and uncertainties could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in our forward-looking statements, whether made in this report or other documents we file with the SEC, or our annual or quarterly reports to stockholders, future press releases, or orally, whether in presentations, responses to questions, or otherwise.
