NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

September 30, 2019

1. GENERAL

Description of Business

In this report, when we refer to “the Company,” “us,” “we,” “our,” “ours,” or “Schneider,” we are referring to Schneider National, Inc. and its subsidiaries. We are a leading transportation services organization headquartered in Green Bay, Wisconsin. We provide a broad portfolio of premier truckload, intermodal, and logistics solutions and operate one of the largest trucking fleets in North America.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements and footnotes do not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Financial results for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of our financial results for the interim periods presented.

Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which aligns the capitalization requirements for implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the existing capitalization requirements for implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. ASU 2018-15 is effective for us as of January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and do not believe the impact will be material. We expect to adopt this standard on a prospective basis.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement - Disclosure Requirements, which removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. These changes include removing the disclosure requirements related to the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and adding disclosure requirements about the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. Additionally, the amendments remove the phrase “at a minimum” from the codification clarifying that materiality should be considered when evaluating disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for us January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted. We do not believe the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on our disclosures and plan to early adopt this standard during the fourth quarter of 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires companies to use a forward-looking, expected loss model to estimate credit losses on various types of financial assets and net investments in leases. It also requires additional disclosures related to credit quality of trade and other receivables, including information related to management’s estimate of credit allowances. In November 2018, this was further updated with the issuance of ASU 2018-19, which excludes receivables from operating leases from the scope. ASU 2016-13 is effective for us January 1, 2020. We expect the standard will have an impact on our available-for-sale debt securities, net investment in leases, contract assets, trade accounts receivable, and reinsurance receivables. Based on our initial assessment, we do not believe the standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, however we are still assessing the financial impacts.

2. LEASES

We adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases, which is codified in ASC 842, as of January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method. The FASB’s authoritative guidance provided companies with the option to apply this ASU to new and existing leases within the scope of the guidance as of the beginning of the period of adoption. We elected this transition method of applying the new lease

standard and have recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019. Prior period amounts were not adjusted and will continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in the initial recording of right-of-use lease assets and related lease liabilities of $80.6 million and $85.2 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2019, right-of-use lease assets and related lease liabilities were $73.5 million and $80.9 million, respectively. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the term. Schneider's incremental borrowing rates are used as the discount rates for leases and are determined based on U. S. Treasury rates plus an applicable margin to arrive at all-in rates. Schneider uses multiple discount rates based on lease terms and other economic factors. The operating lease right-of-use asset also includes accrued lease expense resulting from the straight-line accounting under prior accounting methods, which is now being amortized over the remaining life of the lease.

In addition, we elected the package of practical expedients provided under the guidance. The practical expedient package applies to leases that commenced prior to adoption of the new standard and permits companies not to reassess whether existing or expired contracts are or contain a lease, the lease classification, and any initial direct costs for any existing leases. We also elected the practical expedient related to land easements, allowing us to carry forward the accounting treatment of our existing agreements for land easements, none of which were material as of January 1, 2019.

As lessee

We lease real estate, transportation equipment, and office equipment under operating and finance leases. Our real estate operating leases include operating centers, distribution warehouses, offices, and drop yards. Our finance leases relate almost entirely to transportation equipment. A majority of our leases include an option to extend the lease, and a small number of our leases include an option to early terminate the lease, which may include a termination payment. If we are reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, the extension period is included as part of the right-of-use asset and lease liability.

For our real estate leases, we have elected to apply the recognition requirement to leases of twelve months or less, therefore, an operating lease right-of-use asset and liability will be recognized for all these leases. For our equipment leases, we have elected to not apply the recognition requirements to leases of twelve months or less. These leases will be expensed on a straight-line basis and no operating lease right-of-use asset or liability will be recorded.

We have also elected to not separate the different components within the contract for our leases; therefore, all fixed costs associated with the lease are included in the right-of-use asset and the operating lease liability. This often relates to the requirement for us to pay a proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, and other operating costs in addition to a base or fixed rent. Some of our leases have variable payment amounts, and the variable portions of those payments are excluded from the right-of-use asset and the lease liability.

At the inception of our contracts we determine if the contract is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

A small number of our leased real estate assets contains subleases. The lease income related to subleases is shown in the lease cost table below.

Certain equipment leases contain residual value guarantees. These are guarantees made to the lessor that the value of the underlying asset returned to the lessor at the end of the lease will be at least a specified amount.

None of our leases contain restrictions or covenants that restrict us from incurring other financial obligations.

For certain of our real estate leases, there are options contained within the lease agreement to extend beyond the initial lease term. The Company recognizes options as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when deemed reasonably certain to be exercised. Future operating lease payments at September 30, 2019 include $10.6 million related to options to extend lease terms that we are reasonably certain to exercise. Options related to our FTFM service offering that were previously considered reasonably certain to be exercised have been removed from the future operating lease payments at September 30, 2019.

Under ASC 840, future minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2018 were as follows:

As of September 30, 2019, we had additional leases that had not yet commenced of $3.5 million. These leases will commence during the remainder of 2019 and have lease terms of four months to five years.

The consolidated balance sheets include right-of-use assets acquired under finance leases as components of property and equipment as of September 30, 2019 and January 1, 2019, as follows:

Transportation equipment is being amortized to the estimated residual value by the end of the lease. Real and other property under finance leases are being amortized to a zero net book value over the initial lease term.

Table of Contents

As lessor

We finance various types of transportation-related equipment for independent third parties under lease contracts which are generally for one year to five years and are accounted for as sales-type leases with fully guaranteed residual values. At the inception of the contracts, we determine if the contract is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

With the adoption of ASC 842, all leases for which we are the lessor meet the definition of sales-type leases. In addition, as required under ASC 842, all cash flows from lease receipts are classified as operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows beginning January 1, 2019. We previously presented all cash flows from lease receipts as investing activities.

As of September 30, 2019 and January 1, 2019, the investment in lease receivables was as follows:



	September 30, 2019			January 1, 2019
Future minimum payments to be received on leases	$	146.9		$	140.0
Guaranteed residual lease values	138.2			151.0

The amounts to be received on lease receivables as of September 30, 2019 were as follows:



(in millions)	September 30, 2019
Remaining 2019	$	35.8
2020	142.8

Amount representing interest	(33.3		)
Present value of lease receivables	251.8
Current lease receivables, net of allowance	(125.5		)
Long-term lease receivable	$	126.3

Leases are generally placed on nonaccrual status (nonaccrual of interest and other fees) when a payment becomes 90 days past due or upon receipt of notification of bankruptcy, upon the death of a customer, or in other instances in which management concludes collectability is not reasonably assured. The accrual of interest and other fees is resumed when all payments are less than 60 days past due. At September 30, 2019, there were $0.3 million of lease payments greater than 90 days past due. The terms of the lease agreements generally give us the ability to take possession of the underlying asset in the event of default. We may incur credit losses in excess of recorded allowances if the full amount of any anticipated proceeds from the sale or re-lease of the asset supporting the third party’s financial obligation is not realized. Repossession and estimated reconditioning costs are recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the period incurred.

Our lease payments primarily include base rentals and guaranteed residual values. In addition, we also collect one-time administrative fees and heavy vehicle use tax on our leases. We have elected to not separate the different components within the contract as the administrative fees were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. We have also

Table of Contents

elected to exclude all taxes assessed by a governmental authority from the consideration (e.g., heavy vehicle use tax). All of our leases require fixed payments, therefore we have no variable payment provisions.

Our leases contain an option for the lessee to return, extend, or purchase the equipment at the end of the lease term for the guaranteed contract residual amount. This is estimated to approximate the fair value of the equipment. Equipment is leased under sales-type leases where the lessees guarantee the residual value of the equipment. The table below provides additional information on our sales-type leases.

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Disaggregated Revenues

The majority of our revenues are related to transportation and have similar characteristics. The following table summarizes our revenues by type of service, and each type of service is further described below.



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
Disaggregated Revenues (in millions)	2019		2018		2019		2018
Transportation	$	1,093.9	$	1,175.0	$	3,297.7	$	3,362.9
Logistics management	32.3		57.7		120.1		163.7
Other	57.7		47.4		172.9		128.8
Total operating revenues	$	1,183.9	$	1,280.1	$	3,590.7	$	3,655.4

Transportation

Transportation revenues relate to the Truckload and Intermodal reportable segments, as well as to our brokerage business, which is included in the Logistics reportable segment.

In the Transportation portfolio, our service obligation to customers is satisfied over time. We do not believe there is a significant impact on the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue or cash flows based on the mode of transportation. The economic factors that impact our transportation revenue are generally consistent across these modes given the relatively short-term nature of each contract. For the majority of our transportation business, the “contract with a customer” is identified as an individual order under a negotiated agreement. Some consideration is variable in that a final transaction price is uncertain and is susceptible to factors outside of Schneider's influence, such as the weather or the accumulation of accessorial charges. Pricing information is supplied by rate schedules that accompany negotiated contracts.

Table of Contents

Logistics Management

Logistics Management revenues relate to our Supply Chain Management and Import/Export Services operating segments, both of which are included in our Logistics reportable segment. Within this portfolio, the key service we provide to the customer is management of freight shipping and/or storage.

Other

Other revenues relate to activities that are out of scope for purposes of ASC 606, including our leasing and captive insurance businesses.

Quantitative Disclosure

The following table provides information related to transactions and expected timing of revenue recognition related to performance obligations that are fixed in nature and relate to contracts with terms greater than one year as of date shown:



Remaining Performance Obligations (in millions)	September 30, 2019
Expected to be recognized within one year
Transportation	$	10.5
Logistics Management	8.6
Expected to be recognized after one year
Transportation	1.3
Logistics Management	6.9
Total	$	27.3

This disclosure does not include revenue related to performance obligations that are part of a contract whose original expected duration is one year or less. In addition, this disclosure does not include expected consideration related to performance obligations for which the Company elects to recognize revenue in the amount it has a right to invoice (e.g., usage-based pricing terms).

The following table provides information related to contract balances associated with our contracts with customers as of the dates shown.



Contract Balances (in millions)	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Other current assets - Contract assets	$	25.8	$	21.7
Other current liabilities - Contract liabilities	—		—

We generally receive payment within 40 days of completion of performance obligations. Contract assets in the table above relate to revenue in-transit at the end of the reporting period. Contract liabilities relate to amounts that customers paid in advance of the associated service.

4. FAIR VALUE

Fair value focuses on the estimated price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, which is referred to as the exit price. Inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value fall into three broad levels (Levels 1, 2, and 3) as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2—Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, for the asset or liability or prices for similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk).

Table of Contents

Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. All marketable securities were valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy). We measure our marketable securities on a recurring, monthly basis. See Note 5, Investments, for information on the fair value of our marketable securities.

In connection with the June 1, 2016 acquisition of WSL, a contingent payment arrangement based on the achievement of specified earnings targets was in place for three consecutive 12-month periods after the closing, with the aggregate payment total not to exceed $40.0 million. No payments were made under the agreement which expired June 30, 2019, and the balance as of December 31, 2018 was zero.

Our ownership interest in PSI discussed in Note 5, Investments, was valued based on Level 3 inputs.

There were no transfers between levels for the periods shown.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The recorded value of cash, trade accounts receivable, lease receivables, and trade accounts payable approximates fair value.

The table below presents the carrying value of our debt portfolio along with the fair value of a fixed-rate debt portfolio with similar terms and maturities, which is based on borrowing rates available to us in the applicable year. This valuation used Level 2 inputs.



	September 30, 2019				December 31, 2018
(in millions)	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Fixed-rate debt portfolio	$	401.3	$	408.9	$	405.0	$	398.4

5. INVESTMENTS

Marketable Securities

Our marketable securities are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value in current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Our portfolio of securities has maturities ranging from 3 to 81 months. While our intent is to hold our securities to maturity, sudden changes in the market or to our liquidity needs may cause us to sell certain securities in advance of their maturity date.

Any unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets, unless we determine that an unrealized loss is other-than-temporary. If we determine that an unrealized loss is other-than-temporary, we recognize the loss in earnings. We did not have any other-than-temporary impairments for either of the periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Cost basis is determined using the specific identification method.

The following table presents the values of our marketable securities as of the dates shown:



	September 30, 2019				December 31, 2018
(in millions)	Amortized Cost		Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Fair Value
Zero coupon bonds	$	2.0	$	2.0	$	3.9	$	3.9

State and municipal bonds	11.6		11.8		12.5		12.5
Total marketable securities	$	46.8	$	47.4	$	51.6	$	51.3

Gross realized gains and losses on marketable securities were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Gross unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities were not material for the periods ended September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018.

Ownership Interest in Platform Science, Inc.

In 2018, we acquired a 30% ownership interest in PSI in exchange for granting PSI a non-exclusive license to our proprietary telematics mobile software that was developed to enable driver productivity and ensure regulatory compliance. Our ownership interest in PSI is being accounted for under ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities and is recorded at fair value in other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the ownership interest as of December 31, 2018 was determined to be $3.5 million through an independent valuation. As of September 30, 2019, there have been no transactions that would indicate that the value of our ownership interest in PSI changed.

6. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of our acquisitions over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows:



(in millions)	Truckload			Logistics		Other			Total
Balance at December 31, 2018	$	138.2		$	14.2	$	9.8		$	162.2
Goodwill impairment charge	(34.6		)	—		—			(34.6		)
Foreign currency translation	—			—		(0.3		)	(0.3		)
Balance at September 30, 2019	$	103.6		$	14.2	$	9.5		$	127.3

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had accumulated goodwill impairment charges of $42.6 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually using both the discounted cash flow method and the guideline public company method in calculating the fair values of our reporting units. Key inputs used in the discounted cash flow approach include growth rates for sales and operating profit, perpetuity growth assumptions, and discount rates. As interest rates rise, the calculated fair values of our reporting units will decrease, which could impact the results of our goodwill impairment tests.

A triggering event occurred during the second quarter of 2019 as results from our FTFM reporting unit continued to be less than projected, despite sustained investments and operational changes designed to improve efficiencies. Because of this triggering event, an impairment test was performed for the FTFM reporting unit. As a result of the testing performed, an impairment loss of $34.6 million was recorded for our FTFM reporting unit as the discounted cash flows expected to be generated by this reporting unit were not sufficient to recover its carrying value. This represents all of the goodwill related to the FTFM reporting unit.

The identifiable intangible assets other than goodwill listed below are included in capitalized software and other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets.



(in millions)	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount

Total intangible assets	$	11.9	$	4.7	$	7.2

As part of the shutdown of our FTFM service offering in the third quarter of 2019, we wrote-off the gross carrying amount of the customer lists and trade name obtained through the WSL acquisition. An impairment charge of $6.5 million was recorded for the unamortized value of the customer lists in the three months ended September 30, 2019. The impairment charge is included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income within restructuring charges. Refer to Note 13, Restructuring Charges, for additional details.

Table of Contents

Amortization expense for intangible assets was $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, and $0.7 million and $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Accumulated amortization in the table above includes foreign currency translation related to a customer list.

7. DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, debt included the following:



(in millions)	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018
Unsecured senior notes: principal payable at maturities ranging from 2019 through 2025; interest payable in semiannual installments through the same timeframe; weighted-average interest rate of 3.36% for both 2019 and 2018	$	400.0		$	400.0
Equipment financing notes: principal and interest payable in monthly installments through 2019; weighted average interest rate of 3.98% and 3.72% for 2019 and 2018, respectively	1.3			5.0
Total principal outstanding	401.3			405.0
Current maturities	(96.2		)	(45.0		)
Debt issuance costs	(0.5		)	(0.6		)
Long-term debt	$	304.6		$	359.4

Our Credit Agreement (the “2018 Credit Facility”) provides borrowing capacity of $250.0 million and allows us to request an increase in total commitment by up to $150.0 million, for a total potential commitment of $400.0 million through August 2023. The agreement also provides a sublimit of $100.0 million to be used for the issuance of letters of credit. We had no outstanding borrowings under this agreement as of September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018. Standby letters of credit under this agreement amounted to $3.9 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our real estate leases.

We also have a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “2018 Receivables Purchase Agreement”) that allows us to borrow funds against qualifying trade receivables at rates based on one-month LIBOR up to $200.0 million and provides for the issuance of standby letters of credit through September 2021. We had no outstanding borrowings under this facility at September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, standby letters of credit under this agreement amounted to $70.3 million and $65.3 million, respectively, and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our insurance obligations.

8. INCOME TAXES

Our effective income tax rate was 26.2% and 25.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 25.3% and 25.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In determining the quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. This rate is based on our expected annual income, statutory tax rates, and best estimate of nontaxable and nondeductible items of income and expense.

9. COMMON EQUITY

Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions, except per share data)	2019		2018		2019		2018
Numerator:
Net income available to common shareholders	$	19.7	$	70.7	$	91.1	$	184.1

Denominator:
Weighted average common shares outstanding	177.1		177.0		177.1		177.0
Effect of dilutive restricted share units	0.2		0.2		0.2		0.2
Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding	177.3		177.2		177.3		177.2

Basic earnings per common share	$	0.11	$	0.40	$	0.51	$	1.04
Diluted earnings per common share	0.11		0.40		0.51		1.04

The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 excluded an immaterial amount of share-based compensation awards that had an anti-dilutive effect.

Subsequent Event - Dividends Declared

In October of 2019, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2019 in the amount of $0.06 per share to holders of our Class A and Class B common stock. The dividend is payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 13, 2019 and is expected to be paid on January 9, 2020.

10. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

We grant various equity-based awards relating to Class B Common Stock under our 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“the Plan”). These awards consist of the following: restricted shares, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based restricted shares (“Performance Shares”), performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”), and non-qualified stock options.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized a net benefit of $2.4 million for our share based compensation plans due to the reduction in the anticipated payout of performance-based awards. There was no share-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Share-based compensation expense was $2.1 million and $6.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. We recognize share-based compensation expense over the awards' vesting period. As of September 30, 2019, we had $11.3 million of pre-tax unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding share-based compensation awards expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years.

The Black-Scholes valuation model is used by the Company to determine the grant date fair value of option awards. The Company uses its stock price on the grant date as the fair value assigned to the restricted shares, RSUs, performance shares, and PSUs. Performance shares and PSUs are earned based on attainment of threshold performance of return on capital and earnings or net income targets.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of conducting our business we become involved in certain legal matters and investigations including liability claims, taxes other than income taxes, contract disputes, employment, and other litigation matters. We accrue for anticipated costs to resolve matters that are probable and estimable. We believe the outcomes of these matters will not have a material impact on our business or our consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

We record liabilities for claims accruals based on our best estimate of expected losses. The primary claims arising for the Company consist of accident-related claims for personal injury, collision, and comprehensive compensation, in addition to workers' compensation and cargo liability claims. We maintain insurance with licensed insurance carriers above the amounts in which we self-insure. We review our accruals periodically to ensure that the aggregate amounts of our accruals are appropriate at any period after consideration of available insurance coverage. Although it is possible that our claims accruals will change based on future developments, we do not believe these changes will be material to our results of operations considering our insurance coverage and other factors.

At September 30, 2019, our firm commitments to purchase transportation equipment totaled approximately $278.1 million.

The representative of the former owners of WSL has filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery which alleges that we have not fulfilled certain obligations under the purchase and sale agreement relating to the post-closing operations of the business, and as a result, the former owners claim they are entitled to an additional payment of $40.0 million. For additional information on this contingent payment see Note 4, Fair Value. A trial date has been set for April 2020. We believe that we have strong defenses to this claim. A judgment by the Court against us could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

12. SEGMENT REPORTING

We have three reportable segments – Truckload, Intermodal, and Logistics – which are based primarily on the services each segment provides.

As of December 31, 2018, our operating segments within the Truckload reportable segment were VTL, FTFM, and Bulk. On July 29, 2019 the Board of Directors approved a structured shutdown of our FTFM service offering, which was included within our FTFM operating segment. Once the shutdown of the FTFM service offering is complete, there will be two operating segments within the Truckload reportable segment, VTL and Bulk.

The CODM reviews revenues for each operating segment without the inclusion of fuel surcharge revenues. For segment purposes, any fuel surcharge revenues earned are recorded as a reduction of the segment’s fuel expenses. Income from operations at a segment level reflects the measures presented to the CODM for each segment.

Separate balance sheets are not prepared by segment, and, as a result, assets are not separately identifiable by segment. All transactions between reporting segments are eliminated in consolidation.

The following tables summarize our segment information. Intersegment revenues were immaterial for all segments, with the exception of Other, which includes revenues from insurance premiums charged to other segments for workers’ compensation, auto, and other types of insurance. Intersegment revenues included in Other revenues below were $20.8 million and $20.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $66.8 million and $62.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The impairment on assets held for sale was recorded within operating supplies and expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. An additional $34.6 million goodwill impairment charge related to the FTFM reporting unit was recorded within Truckload income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Depreciation and amortization expense	$	74.1	$	73.3	$	222.4	$	216.9

Substantially all of our revenues and assets were generated or located within the United States.

In 2019, we began recognizing in-transit revenues and related expenses at the reporting segment level for all operating segments to better align revenues and costs within our reporting segments. Prior to 2019, revenues at the operating segment level reflected revenue recognized upon delivery, and in-transit revenue was recorded within Other, except for FTFM. For consistency, we have restated the 2018 revenue and income (loss) from operations by segment in the tables above to reflect this new measure of revenue and segment profit. The tables below reflect the impact of this change by reporting segment on revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) and income (loss) from operations.

13. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

On July 29, 2019 the Company’s Board of Directors approved a structured shutdown of its FTFM service offering within its Truckload reporting segment which was substantially complete as of August 31, 2019. As part of the shutdown, $50.4 million of restructuring charges were incurred during the third quarter of 2019. Combined with anticipated future shutdown costs, the Company will be at the lower end of its estimated range of $50.0 million to $75.0 million. All of the restructuring charges were recorded within our Truckload reporting segment. Pre-tax losses of our FTFM service offering were $8.9 million and $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $34.2 million and $19.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The costs associated with the shutdown are presented separately on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income within restructuring charges and are summarized in the following table for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019:



(in millions)	September 30, 2019
Impairment charges	$	35.7
Receivables write-down	7.6
Other costs	7.1
Total restructuring charges	$	50.4

As part of our assessment of impairment charges during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, we recorded at fair value $50.6 million of transportation equipment using market data and $13.6 million of right-of-use lease assets using discounted cash flow analyses. As a result of the above, we utilized level 3 inputs in calculating the fair value. These assets, less the cost to sell, are recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other noncurrent assets, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2019.

As of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019, FTFM restructuring liabilities are classified as current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and balances are as follows:



(in millions)	Restructuring Liabilities
Balance at December 31, 2018	$	—
Restructuring charges	7.1
Cash payments	(5.2		)
Balance at September 30, 2019	$	1.9

The required criteria, as defined by ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, was satisfied as part of the shutdown of our FTFM service offering for reclassification of related transportation equipment into assets held for sale. The following table presents information on assets held for sale as of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019 within our Truckload segment. As of September 30, 2019, $50.6 million of the assets held for sale balance relates to the shutdown of our FTFM service offering. Assets held for sale, net of impairment, are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

INTRODUCTION

We are a leading transportation and logistics services company providing a broad portfolio of premier truckload, intermodal, and logistics solutions and operating one of the largest for-hire trucking fleets in North America. Our highly flexible and balanced business combines asset-based truckload services with asset-light intermodal and non-asset logistics offerings, enabling us to serve our customers’ diverse transportation needs. Our broad portfolio of services provides us with a greater opportunity to allocate capital within our portfolio of services in a manner designed to maximize returns across all market cycles and economic conditions. We continually monitor our performance and market conditions to ensure appropriate allocation of capital and resources to grow our businesses and to optimize returns across reportable segments. Our strong balance sheet enables us to carry out an acquisition strategy that strengthens our overall portfolio. We are positioned to leverage our scalable platform and experienced operations team to acquire high-quality businesses that meet our disciplined selection criteria to broaden our service offerings and customer base.

Our truckload services include standard long-haul and regional shipping services primarily using dry van equipment, bulk, temperature-controlled, and customized solutions for high-value, time-sensitive loads. These services are executed through either for-hire or dedicated contracts. FTFM residential and retail store delivery services were also provided into the third quarter of 2019, when that service offering was shut down.

Our intermodal service consists of door-to-door container on flat car service by a combination of rail and over-the-road transportation, in association with our rail carrier partners. Our intermodal service uses company-owned containers, chassis, and trucks, using primarily company dray drivers to offer vast coverage throughout North America, including cross border.

Our logistics offerings consist of non-asset freight brokerage services, supply chain services (including 3PL), and import/export services. Our logistics business typically provides value-added services using third-party capacity, augmented by our assets, to manage and move our customers’ freight.

Our success depends on our ability to balance our transportation network and efficiently and effectively manage our resources in the delivery of truckload, intermodal, and logistics services to our customers. Resource requirements vary with customer demand, which may be subject to seasonal or general economic conditions. We believe that our ability to properly select freight and adapt to changes in customer transportation needs allows us to efficiently deploy resources and make capital investments in trucks, trailers, containers, and chassis, or obtain qualified third-party capacity at a reasonable price for our logistics segment.

Consistent with the transportation industry, our results of operations generally show a seasonal pattern. The strongest volumes are typically in the late third and fourth quarters. Operating expenses tend to be higher in the winter months primarily due to colder weather, which causes higher maintenance expense and higher fuel consumption from increased idle time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this section of our report, we present the following non-GAAP financial measures: (1) revenues (excluding fuel surcharge), (2) adjusted income from operations, (3) adjusted operating ratio, and (4) adjusted net income. We also provide reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes the use of each of these non-GAAP measures assists investors in understanding our business by (a) removing the impact of items from our operating results that, in our opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance, (b) providing investors with the same information our management uses internally to assess our core operating performance, and (c) presenting comparable financial results between periods. In addition, in the case of revenues (excluding fuel surcharge), we believe the measure is useful to investors because it isolates volume, price, and cost changes directly related to industry demand and the way we operate our business from the external factor of fluctuating fuel prices and the programs we have in place to manage fuel price fluctuations. Fuel-related costs and their impact on our industry are important to our results of operations, but they are often independent of other, more relevant factors affecting our results of operations and our industry.

Table of Contents

Although we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors, they have limitations as analytical tools and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies. You should not consider the non-GAAP measures in this report in isolation or as substitutes for, or alternatives to, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. The exclusion of unusual or infrequent items or other adjustments reflected in the non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will not be affected by unusual or infrequent items or by other items similar to such adjustments. Our management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results in addition to using the non-GAAP measures.

Enterprise Summary

The following table includes key GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures for the consolidated enterprise. Adjustments to arrive at non-GAAP measures are made at the enterprise level, with the exception of fuel surcharge revenues, which are not included in segment revenues.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2018

Net Income

Net income decreased $51.0 million, approximately 72%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018, primarily due to pretax charges of $50.4 million for restructuring associated with the shutdown of the Company's FTFM service offering and an $11.5 million pretax impairment of held for sale assets related to an agreement signed in the third quarter of 2019 to sell tractors in the fourth quarter. In addition, freight volumes declined in 2019 due to lower demand. Adjusted net income decreased $13.5 million, approximately 19%.

Revenues

Enterprise operating revenues decreased $96.2 million, approximately 8%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018.

Factors contributing to the decrease were as follows:


•	a $51.3 million decrease in our Truckload segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) resulting from reduced Truckload volume largely due to lower demand and a decrease of approximately $22.0 million related to the shutdown of the FTFM service offering (which was substantially complete as of the end of August 2019), that will continue for the remainder of 2019;


•	a $35.7 million decrease in our Logistics segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) primarily due to one of the Company's import/export customers insourcing their warehouse management function in April 2019 combined with lower revenue per order within brokerage due to a compression in rates, partially offset by an 11% increase in brokerage volumes;


•	a $20.7 million decrease in fuel surcharge revenues primarily related to decreased volumes; and


•	a $5.2 million decrease in our Intermodal segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) due to a decrease in order volume, partially offset by improved revenue per order.

The above factors were partially offset by a $9.6 million increase in revenues from equipment sales by our leasing business under sales-type leases.

Enterprise revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $75.5 million, approximately 7%.

Income from Operations and Operating Ratio

Enterprise income from operations decreased $68.9 million, approximately 70%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018, primarily due to $50.4 million of restructuring charges associated with the shutdown of the FTFM service offering and an $11.5 million impairment of assets held for sale. Lower demand also negatively impacted profitability, but decreases were partially offset by reduced performance-based incentive compensation, driver related costs, and other variable costs. Adjusted income from operations decreased $18.5 million, approximately 19%.

Enterprise operating ratio weakened on both a GAAP and an adjusted basis. Among other factors, our operating ratio can be negatively impacted by changes in portfolio mix when our higher operating ratio, less asset-focused Logistics segment grows faster than our lower operating ratio, capital-intensive Truckload segment.

Key operating expense fluctuations are described below.

•

Purchased transportation costs decreased $9.4 million, or 2%, quarter over quarter driven by lower rates in our Logistics segment, a reduction of FTFM costs given the mid-quarter shutdown of the service offering, and a 4% decline in Intermodal order volume. This was partially offset by an increase in various Intermodal third-party costs, including rail, and increased order volume of 11% within our brokerage business.

•

Salaries, wages, and benefits decreased $59.9 million, or 19%, quarter over quarter, largely due to the elimination of salaries, wages, and benefits associated with warehouse management operations insourced by an import/export customer in April 2019, the shutdown of the FTFM service offering, and other cost savings initiatives. We expect to see continued favorability year over year in salaries, wages, and benefits as a result of these changes. Lower performance-based incentive compensation, driver pay, and Company benefit costs also contributed to the decrease. Salaries, wages, and benefits decreased 3% quarter over quarter on a percentage of revenues basis.

Table of Contents

•

Fuel and fuel taxes for our company trucks decreased $16.8 million, or 19%, quarter over quarter, driven by a 5% decrease in company driver miles and a decrease in cost per gallon. A portion of the decline in company driver miles is attributable to the shutdown of the FTFM service offering. Decreased company driver miles were partially offset by increased owner-operator miles, which do not impact company fuel costs. A significant portion of fuel costs are recovered through our fuel surcharge programs.

•

Operating supplies and expenses increased $15.6 million, or 13%, quarter over quarter driven by an $11.5 million impairment charge recorded on assets held for sale related to an agreement signed in the third quarter of 2019 to sell tractors in the fourth quarter and growth in equipment sales under sales-type leases by our leasing business resulting in higher cost of goods sold of $10.4 million. Increases in equipment losses and software subscription costs were partially offset by a combined $11.4 million decrease in temporary worker pay due to insourcing by one of our import/export customers in April 2019 and reduced maintenance and parts spend attributable to less company driver miles, cost savings initiatives, and younger age of fleet.


•	Other general expenses decreased $8.3 million, or 23%, quarter over quarter primarily as a result of reduced driver recruiting and training costs associated with cost savings initiatives.


•	Restructuring charges increased $50.4 million quarter over quarter due to the recording of impairment charges, write-down of receivables, and other costs associated with the shutdown of the FTFM service offering. Refer to Note 13, Restructuring Charges, for additional details.

Truckload revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $51.3 million, approximately 9%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018. Both volume and price declined quarter over quarter with the decrease in volume having the largest impact. Decreased volume of 9% was the result of lower demand compared to the third quarter of 2018 and the shutdown of our FTFM service offering in the third quarter of 2019. Fewer premium and promotional revenue opportunities contributed to the decline in price. Revenue per truck per week decreased $220, or 6%, quarter over quarter as a result of lower productivity.

Truckload income from operations decreased $66.9 million, approximately 123%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018 due mainly to $50.4 million of restructuring charges related to the shutdown of our FTFM service offering and an $11.5 million non-cash charge resulting from the impairment of assets held for sale. The decline in Truckload volume noted above also contributed to the decrease in income from operations but was partially offset by a reduction in driver and maintenance costs due to less company driver miles, cost savings initiatives, and younger age of fleet compared to the third quarter of 2018.

Intermodal revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $5.2 million, approximately 2%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018. Revenue per order increased 4% due in part to 2018 contract carry-over, 2019 contract renewals and increased length of haul, but was offset by a decrease in orders of 4%. The decrease in orders was largely the result of lower volumes in the overall domestic intermodal freight market.

Intermodal income from operations decreased $11.0 million, approximately 30%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018 primarily due to reduced volume and increases in purchased transportation costs.

(2)	Revenues (excluding fuel surcharge), in millions, including revenue in-transit.

Logistics revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $35.7 million, approximately 13%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018. This decrease was primarily the result of warehouse management functions being insourced by one of the Company's import/export customers in April 2019. In addition, reduced revenue per order was partially offset by brokerage volume growth of 11% compared to the same quarter in 2018.

Table of Contents

Logistics income from operations decreased $3.1 million, approximately 24%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018, primarily due to compressed net revenue in brokerage.

Other

Included in Other was income from operations of $6.5 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to a loss of $5.6 million in the same quarter in 2018. The $12.1 million change was driven by a decrease in performance-based incentive compensation due to a decline in Enterprise results.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense decreased $0.3 million, approximately 12%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018 due primarily to a $0.5 million increase in interest income and a $0.4 million decrease in interest expense partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in net foreign currency gains.

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes decreased $17.6 million, approximately 72%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018 due to lower taxable income. The effective income tax rate was 26.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 25.8% for the same period last year.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

Net Income

Net income decreased $93.0 million, approximately 51%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to pretax restructuring and goodwill impairment charges associated with the FTFM service offering of $50.4 million and $34.6 million, respectively, and an $11.5 million pretax impairment of held for sale assets. In addition, Truckload freight volume declined in 2019 due to lower demand. Adjusted net income decreased $34.0 million, approximately 18%.

Revenues

Enterprise operating revenues decreased $64.7 million, approximately 2%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

Factors contributing to the decreases in revenues were as follows:


•	a $102.7 million decrease in Truckload revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) resulting from reduced Truckload volume due to lower market demand and the shutdown of the FTFM service offering (which was substantially complete as of the end of August 2019), that will continue for the remainder of 2019;


•	a $35.6 million decrease in fuel surcharge revenues primarily related to decreased Truckload volumes; and


•	a $36.7 million decrease in Logistics revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) primarily due to one of the Company's import/export customers insourcing their warehouse management function in April 2019 combined with lower revenue per order within brokerage due to a compression in revenue per order, partially offset by a 15% increase in brokerage volumes.

The above factors were partially offset by:


•	a $58.6 million increase in our Intermodal segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) primarily due to improved revenue per order and an increase in order volume; and


•	a $48.5 million increase in revenues from equipment sales by our leasing business under sales-type leases.

Enterprise revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $29.1 million, approximately 1%.

Income from Operations and Operating Ratio

Enterprise income from operations decreased $127.5 million, approximately 50%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to $50.4 million of restructuring charges associated with the shutdown of the FTFM service offering, a $34.6 million FTFM goodwill impairment, and an increase in FTFM operating losses, as operating losses exceeded prior year by $14.5 million. Additionally, an $11.5 million impairment of held for sale assets and lower demand negatively impacted profitability but were partially offset by reduced performance-based incentive compensation and Company benefits, driver related costs, and other variable costs.

Table of Contents

Adjusted income from operations decreased $48.3 million, approximately 18%.

Enterprise operating ratio weakened on both a GAAP basis and an adjusted basis. Our operating ratio can be negatively impacted when our higher operating ratio, less asset-focused Logistics segment grows faster than our lower operating ratio, capital-intensive Truckload segment.

Key operating expense fluctuations are described below.

•

Purchased transportation costs increased $57.0 million, or 4%, period over period. An increase in various Intermodal third-party costs, including rail, combined with order volume growth in our Logistics segment of 15% resulted in higher purchased transportation. This was partially offset by a decrease in purchased transportation cost per order within our Logistics segment based on additional carrier capacity in 2019 which led to the compression of carrier rates. The shutdown of the FTFM service offering, which was substantially complete as of August 2019, also contributed to the reduction of purchased transportation.

•

Salaries, wages, and benefits decreased $86.6 million, or 9%, period over period, largely due to the elimination of salaries, wages, and benefits associated with warehouse management operations insourced by an import/export customer in April 2019, the shutdown of the FTFM service offering, and other cost savings initiatives. We expect to see continued favorability year over year in salaries, wages, and benefits as a result of these changes. Lower performance-based incentive compensation, Company benefit costs, and driver pay also contributed to the decrease. Salaries, wages, and benefits decreased 2% period over period on a percentage of revenues basis.

•

Fuel and fuel taxes for our company trucks decreased $38.7 million, or 15%, period over period, driven by a 7% decrease in company driver miles and a decrease in cost per gallon. A portion of the decline in company driver miles is attributable to the shutdown of the FTFM service offering. Decreased company driver miles were partially offset by increased owner-operator miles, which do not impact company fuel costs. A significant portion of fuel costs are recovered through our fuel surcharge programs.

•

Depreciation and amortization increased $5.5 million, or 3%, period over period, primarily due to replacement tractors to achieve a younger age of fleet and prior year's investment in chassis and containers to support our Intermodal segment. Continuing to invest in replacement tractors is an important part of our strategic plan as it contributes to reduced maintenance and fuel costs and improves the overall driver experience.

•

Operating supplies and expenses increased $54.1 million, or 15%, period over period. The increase was mainly due to an increase in equipment sales under sales-type leases by our leasing business, resulting in higher cost of goods sold of $44.3 million, and an $11.5 million impairment charge recorded on assets held for sale related to an agreement signed in the third quarter of 2019 to sell tractors in the fourth quarter. Software subscription costs and Intermodal rail yard ramp storage expenses also increased compared to 2018. Increases in the above costs were offset by a combined $16.2 million decrease in temporary worker pay due to insourcing of one of our import/export customers in April 2019 and reduced maintenance and parts spend attributable to less company driver miles, cost savings initiatives, and younger age of fleet.


•	Insurance and related expenses increased $8.6 million, or 12%, period over period. The increase was predominately due to an increase in the severity of auto losses and related insurance premiums.


•	Other general expenses decreased $22.1 million, or 20%, period over period as a result of decreased driver recruiting and training costs associated with cost savings initiatives, a $5.8 million decrease in litigation costs, and lower professional service fees of $3.1 million.


•	Restructuring charges increased $50.4 million period over period due to the recording of impairment charges, write-down of receivables, and other costs associated with the shutdown of the FTFM service offering. Refer to Note 13, Restructuring Charges, for additional details.

Table of Contents

Truckload revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) decreased $102.7 million, approximately 6%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. A decline in volume of 8% was partially offset by a 2% increase in price. Decreased volume was the result of a decrease in demand which drove lower productivity, as well as the shutdown of our FTFM service offering in the third quarter of 2019. Price increased period over period due to contract carry-over and 2019 rate renewals, despite fewer promotional and premium revenue opportunities. Revenue per truck per week decreased $165, or 4%, period over period as a result of lower productivity driven primarily by lower freight volumes.

Truckload income from operations decreased $143.6 million, approximately 89%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. This decrease was primarily due to $50.4 million of restructuring charges related to the shutdown of our FTFM service offering, the $34.6 million FTFM goodwill impairment, an additional $14.5 million in operating losses within FTFM through the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, and the $11.5 million non-cash charge resulting from the impairment of assets held for sale. Lower volumes, as discussed above, also contributed to the decrease but were partially offset by a reduction in driver and maintenance related costs.

Intermodal revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $58.6 million, approximately 9%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The increase was driven by a 9% increase in revenue per order primarily resulting from 2018 contract carry-over, 2019 contract renewals and increased length of haul, while orders remained flat period over period.

Intermodal income from operations decreased $15.2 million, approximately 17%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. Revenue growth, due to the increase in revenue per order noted above, was more than offset by higher purchased transportation, equipment depreciation, and rail ramp storage costs. Asset utilization was also unfavorable compared to the same period of 2018.

insourcing their warehouse management function in April 2019. In addition, reduced revenue per order was partially offset by brokerage volume growth of 15%.

Logistics income from operations decreased $1.8 million, approximately 6%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to compressed net revenue in brokerage and reduced volumes within our import/export business.

Other

Our Other segment recorded income from operations of $6.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a loss of $26.9 million in the same period in 2018. Factors contributing to increased income include a reduction in performance-based incentive compensation, the $5.8 million settlement of a lawsuit that challenged Washington State labor law compliance in 2018, and a $4.6 million increase in income from operations from our leasing business driven by increased lease activity.

Other Expense (Income)

Other expense decreased $1.4 million, approximately 15%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily from a $3.7 million increase in interest income and a $0.3 million decrease in net foreign currency losses, partially offset by the 2018 recognition of a $2.5 million pre-tax gain related to our ownership interest in PSI and a $0.1 million increase in interest expense. See Note 5, Investments, for more information on PSI.

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes decreased $33.1 million, approximately 52%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 due to lower taxable income. The effective income tax rate was 25.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 25.8% for the same period last year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary uses of cash are working capital requirements, capital expenditures, dividend payments, and debt service requirements. Additionally, we may use cash for acquisitions and other investing and financing activities. Working capital is required principally to ensure we are able to run the business and have sufficient funds to satisfy maturing short-term debt and operational expenses. Our capital expenditures consist primarily of transportation equipment and information technology.

Historically, our primary source of liquidity has been cash flow from operations. In addition, we have a $250.0 million revolving credit facility and a $200.0 million accounts receivable facility. We anticipate that cash generated from operations, together with amounts available under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to meet our requirements for the foreseeable future. To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that these funds will be obtained through additional indebtedness, additional equity offerings, or a combination of these potential sources of funds. Our ability to fund future operating expenses and capital expenditures, as well as our ability to meet future debt service obligations or refinance our indebtedness will depend on our future operating performance, which will be affected by general economic, financial, and other factors beyond our control.

The following table presents our cash and debt outstanding as of the dates shown:



(in millions)	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents	$	437.1	$	378.7

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities increased $60.2 million, approximately 15%, in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, driven primarily by the reclassification of proceeds from lease receipts from investing activities with the adoption of ASC 842 and the net change in working capital balances, partially offset by the decrease in net income as

Table of Contents

adjusted for non-cash items. Non-cash restructuring charges related to the shutdown of the FTFM service offering were $43.3 million in the first nine months of 2019 and primarily included charges for the impairment of tangible and intangible assets including equipment, customer lists and other customer related assets, and software.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities increased $133.5 million, approximately 60%, in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The increase in cash used was driven by the increase in net capital expenditures and the reclassification of proceeds from lease receipts to operating activities with the adoption of ASC 842, partially offset by increased sales of marketable securities.

Capital Expenditures

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our net capital expenditures.



	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions)	2019			2018
Transportation equipment	$	308.6		$	268.1
Other property and equipment	42.8			22.3
Proceeds from sale of property and equipment	(38.8		)	(74.6		)
Net capital expenditures	$	312.6		$	215.8

Expenditures for transportation equipment and other property and equipment increased $40.5 million and $20.5 million, respectively, in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 driven by increased tractor purchases, land, buildings, and improvements spend, and capitalized IT costs. Proceeds from sale of property and equipment decreased $35.8 million primarily as a result of reduced tractor sales. See Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, for information on our firm commitments to purchase transportation equipment.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities decreased $10.4 million, approximately 16%, in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The main driver of the decrease in cash used was the $11.6 million decrease in payments on debt and finance lease obligations, partially offset by a $1.8 million increase in dividends paid in 2019 compared to 2018.

Other Considerations that Could Affect Our Results, Liquidity, or Capital Resources

Driver Capacity and Wage Cost

Our professional driver workforce is one of our most valuable assets. Recruiting and retaining sufficient numbers of qualified drivers is challenging in an increasingly competitive driver market and has a significant impact on our operating costs and ability to serve our customers. Changes in the demographic composition of the workforce, alternative employment opportunities that become available in the economy, and individual drivers’ desire to be home more frequently can affect availability of drivers and increase the wages our drivers require.

Factors that Could Result in a Goodwill Impairment

We will perform our annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment as of October 31, 2019, with such analysis expected to be finalized during the fourth quarter. As part of our annual process of updating our goodwill impairment evaluation, we will assess the impact of current operating results and our resulting management actions to determine whether they have an impact on the long-term valuation of reporting units and the related recoverability of our goodwill. A triggering event occurred during the second quarter of 2019 that resulted in impairment of all goodwill related to our FTFM reporting unit. See further discussion in Note 6, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
