CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are intended to come within the safe harbor protection provided by such Act. These forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations, beliefs, plans, or forecasts with respect to, among other things, future events and financial performance and trends in our business and industry. Forward-looking statements are often characterized by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “target,” “prospects,” “potential” and “forecast,” and other words, terms, and phrases of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, forecasts, assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. We caution readers that a forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statement.

Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Prospectus, as well as in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, related notes, and the other information appearing elsewhere in this report and our other filings with the SEC. In addition to any such risks, uncertainties, and other factors discussed elsewhere herein, risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause or contribute to actual results differing materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: economic and business risks inherent in the truckload industry, including competitive pressures pertaining to pricing, capacity, and service; risks associated with the loss of a significant customer or customers; fluctuations in the price or availability of fuel, the volume and terms of diesel fuel purchase commitments, and our ability to recover fuel costs through our fuel surcharge programs; our ability to attract and retain qualified drivers, including owner-operators, in the operation of our intermodal and trucking businesses; risks related to demand for our service offerings; our ability to recruit, develop, and retain our key associates; the impact of laws and regulations that apply to our business, including those that relate to the environment, taxes, employees, and owner-operators, our captive insurance company, and the increased costs of compliance with existing or future federal, state, and local regulations; significant systems disruptions, including those caused by cybersecurity breaches; negative seasonal patterns generally experienced in the trucking industry during traditionally slower shipping periods and winter months; exposure to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of our business and the risk of insurance claims through our captive insurance company; our ability to effectively manage and implement our growth and diversification strategies and cost saving initiatives; risks associated with acquisitions and other strategic transactions; risks associated with obtaining materials, equipment, and services from our vendors and suppliers; risks associated with cross-border operations and doing business in foreign countries; risks associated with financial and credit markets, including our ability to service indebtedness and fund capital expenditures and strategic initiatives; and risks associated with reliance on third parties with respect to certain of our businesses, including railroads with respect to our intermodal business and third-party capacity providers for our Logistics brokerage business.

We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any of our forward-looking statements after the date of this report to reflect actual results or future events or circumstances. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts, or unless otherwise noted)

June 30, 2017

1. GENERAL

Description of Business

In this report, when we refer to “the Company,” “us,” “we,” “our,” or “ours,” 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.

Our IPO of shares of Class B Common Stock was completed in early April 2017, and additional shares were sold in May 2017 under an option granted to the underwriters. In connection with the offering, we sold a total of 20,145,000 shares of common stock at $19 per share and received proceeds of $382,755 . Expenses related to the offering totaled approximately $42,108 , resulting in net proceeds of $340,647 .

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed 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 financial statements and footnotes do not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in our Prospectus. 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 May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-9, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This guidance outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. As amended, the new revenue recognition standard will be effective for us beginning with the reporting period ending March 31, 2018. The standard permits the use of either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. We are in the process of reviewing and assessing our contracts with customers in accordance with the guidance in the ASU. Based on our analysis to date, we do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. We plan to use the modified retrospective approach for adoption, which requires us to record the cumulative effect of the transition through retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. We are still evaluating the disclosure requirements of this standard.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-1, Financial Instruments–Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities . This update was issued to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments regarding certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure. These provisions are effective for us beginning with the reporting period ending March 31, 2018. The standard is to be applied using a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year of adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2, Leases , which requires lessees to recognize in the consolidated balance sheets assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current accounting principles, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current accounting principles, which require only capital leases to be recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, the new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients that companies may elect to apply. These practical expedients relate to the

Table of Contents

identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. The transition guidance also provides specific guidance for sale and leaseback transactions, build-to-suit leases, leveraged leases, and amounts previously recognized in accordance with the business combinations guidance for leases. The new standard is effective for us beginning with the reporting period ending March 31, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We currently cannot reasonably estimate the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

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 disclosure related to credit quality of trade and other receivables, including information related to management’s estimate of credit allowances. This guidance is effective for us beginning with the reporting period ending March 31, 2020. We currently cannot reasonably estimate the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments , which addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. Entities must apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented but may apply it prospectively if retrospective application would be impracticable. The provisions of this update are effective for us beginning with the reporting period ending March 31, 2018. We currently cannot reasonably estimate the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-4 , Intangibles—Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment testing process. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. Under the new standard, a goodwill impairment loss is measured as the excess of the carrying value of a reporting unit over its fair value. The provisions of this update will be effective for our goodwill impairment test in 2020. We currently cannot reasonably estimate the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

2. ACQUISITION

On June 1, 2016, we acquired 100% of the shares of WSL, for $150,420 in cash and future payments. WSL brings together final-mile delivery, claims-free handling, and an innovative technology platform. It provides LTL, truckload, and logistics services for difficult to handle goods, such as furniture and floor coverings, across North America. It uses proprietary technology to handle supply chain complexities within the national home delivery industry. We acquired WSL because it creates integrated first-to-final-mile-delivery capabilities, which reduces supply chain complexities for omnichannel retailers and manufacturers.

The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations . Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the Truckload segment at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets, which were primarily customer relationships and trade names, were based on valuations using the income approach. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and expected growth opportunities. We believe that 100% of the goodwill will be deductible for United States income tax purposes. No adjustments were made to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

Debt and capital lease obligations assumed	46,211
Other noncurrent liabilities assumed	1,646
Fair value of total consideration transferred	$	150,420

In addition to the cash paid at closing, the purchase and sale agreement included guaranteed payments of $20,000 to the former owners of WSL on each of the first three anniversary dates of the closing. The liability recorded was discounted between one percent and three percent , based on credit-adjusted discount rates. The initial payment in the amount of $19,668 , including calculated interest based on the discounted amount recorded, was made in June 2017 and reflected an adjustment for a working capital true-up. The total present value of the remaining two payments was $37,998 at June 30, 2017 .

A contingent payment arrangement based on the achievement of specified earnings targets is also in place for three consecutive 12 month periods after the closing, with the aggregate payment total not to exceed $40,000 . No payments have been made through June 30, 2017 . See Note 3 , Fair Value , for information regarding the fair value of this contingent arrangement.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents our results as if we had acquired WSL on January 1, 2016.

3. 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

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.

The fair value of the contingent consideration related to the 2016 acquisition of WSL was $600 at June 30, 2017 . This valuation was based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, which are referred to as Level 3 inputs. Key assumptions include a probability-adjusted level of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation method. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration:




Balance at December 31, 2016	$	13,500
Change in fair value ⁽¹⁾	(12,900		)
Balance at June 30, 2017	$	600

(1) We recorded an adjustment to the contingent consideration liability in the second quarter of 2017, resulting in an increase in income from operations. The adjustment was caused by a change in the fair value of the contingent liability, which reflected three-year growth targets established by the seller prior to the close of the acquisition.

There were no transfers between levels for the periods shown.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The recorded value of cash, receivables, and payables approximates fair value.

Based on borrowing rates available to us in the applicable year, a fixed-rate debt portfolio with similar terms and maturities would have had a fair value of approximately $443,465 and $683,923 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively.

4. MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Our marketable securities have maturities ranging from three to 84 months , but our intent is to hold them for less than one year. They are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value in current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Any unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

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



	June 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Amortized Cost		Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Fair Value
Zero coupon bonds	$	3,806	$	3,844	$	3,768	$	3,811
U.S. treasury and government agencies	6,026		6,024		8,048		8,042
Asset-backed securities	287		279		409		399
Corporate debt securities	11,215		11,383		14,415		14,541
State and political subdivisions	23,988		23,752		26,192		25,696
Total marketable securities	$	45,322	$	45,282	$	52,832	$	52,489

Gross realized and unrealized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities were not material for the three or six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 .

5. 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:



	Truckload		Logistics		Other		Total
Balance at December 31, 2016	$	138,168	$	14,173	$	11,694	$	164,035
Foreign currency translation	—		—		267		267
Balance at June 30, 2017	$	138,168	$	14,173	$	11,961	$	164,302

Table of Contents

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



	June 30, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount
Customer lists	$	10,500	$	1,973	$	8,527	$	10,500	$	1,445	$	9,055

Total intangible assets	$	11,900	$	2,478	$	9,422	$	11,900	$	1,717	$	10,183

Amortization expense for intangible assets was $381 and $147 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $763 and $176 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Accumulated amortization in the table above includes foreign currency translation related to a customer list.

Estimated future amortization expense related to intangible assets is as follows:



Remaining 2017	$	765
2018	1,416
2019	1,145
2020	950
2021	950
2022 and thereafter	4,196
	$	9,422

6. DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , debt included the following:



	June 30, 2017			December 31, 2016
Unsecured senior notes: principal payable at maturity; interest payable in quarterly or semiannual installments through 2025; weighted-average interest rate of 3.36% and 3.66% for 2017 and 2016, respectively	$	400,000		$	500,000
Equipment financing notes: principal and interest payable in monthly installments through 2023; weighted average interest rate of 3.77% and 3.82% for 2017 and 2016, respectively	36,694			49,296
Secured credit facility: collateralized by certain trade receivables; interest rate of 1.68% for 2016	—			135,000
Total principal outstanding	436,694			684,296
Current maturities	(16,682		)	(254,398		)
Debt issuance costs	(963		)	(1,091		)
Long-term debt	$	419,049		$	428,807

As of June 30, 2017 , we were in compliance with all covenants and financial ratios under the credit agreement and the indentures governing the senior notes.

We used $100,000 of the proceeds from our IPO to repay our 4.83% unsecured senior note that matured on May 7, 2017 .

We had no outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit agreement as of June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016 . Standby letters of credit under this agreement amounted to $4,100 at both June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our real estate leases.

We have a secured credit facility that allows us to borrow up to $200,000 against qualifying trade receivables at rates based on the 30-day London InterBank Offered Rate. At March 31, 2017, we had $50,000 outstanding under this agreement, which we repaid on April 8, 2017 with proceeds from our IPO. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , standby letters of credit under this agreement amounted to $63,784 and $60,085 , respectively, and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our insurance obligations.

7. LEASE RECEIVABLES

We finance various types of transportation-related equipment for independent third parties. The transactions are generally for one to five years and are accounted for as sales-type or direct financing leases. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the investment in lease receivables was as follows:



	June 30, 2017			December 31, 2016
Future minimum payments to be received on leases	$	145,200		$	137,339
Guaranteed residual lease values	118,536			124,487
Total minimum lease payments to be received	263,736			261,826

Current portion of lease receivables—net of allowance	94,917			100,211
Lease receivables—noncurrent	$	138,125		$	132,121

8. INCOME TAXES

Our effective income tax rate was 37.7% and 40.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , and 2016 , respectively, and 38.6% and 40.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , and 2016 , 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, best estimate of nontaxable and nondeductible items of income and expense, and the ultimate outcome of tax audits.

9. TEMPORARY EQUITY

Prior to our IPO in April 2017, our Class A and Class B Common Stock was considered redeemable under GAAP because of certain repurchase rights granted to our shareholders pursuant to the Schneider National, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan and certain agreements governing ownership of our common stock held by existing shareholders, including members of the Schneider family and their family trusts. As a result, all vested Class A and Class B common shares were recorded as temporary equity (redeemable common shares) on the consolidated balance sheets at their redemption value as of the respective balance sheet dates. Accumulated earnings on the consolidated balance sheets were adjusted for the changes during the period in the current redemption value of vested Class A and Class B redeemable common shares.

All contractual redemption features were removed at the time of the IPO. As a consequence, all outstanding shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock ceased to be considered temporary equity and were reclassified to Shareholders’ Equity, including the associated balances of accumulated earnings and accumulated other comprehensive income. As the common shares have no par value, the amounts recorded in temporary equity for the share redemption value were recorded to additional paid-in capital within Shareholders’ Equity upon the transfer.

The following table shows all changes to temporary equity during the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

10. COMMON EQUITY

All share redemption provisions mentioned in Note 9, Temporary Equity , were removed effective with the IPO of Class B common shares in April 2017. Therefore, all Class A and Class B common shares were reclassified from temporary equity to permanent equity as of April 2017.

Prior to the IPO, restricted share awards that were not yet vested and held for more than 180 days were classified as liabilities at their redemption values taking into consideration the portion of the requisite service that had been provided as of the reporting date. At the IPO date, these unvested shares were reclassified to equity.

Earnings Per Share

As disclosed in Note 1, General , our IPO of shares of Class B Common Stock was effective in April 2017. In connection with the offering, we sold additional shares of common stock.



(in thousands, except per share data)	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Basic earnings per common share:
Net income available to common shareholders	$	46,473	$	44,167	$	69,042	$	72,306
Weighted average common shares issued and outstanding	174,424		156,295		165,422		156,000

Subsequent Event - Dividends Declared

In July 2017, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend for the third fiscal quarter of 2017 in the amount of $0.05 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 September 20, 2017, and is expected to be paid on October 2, 2017.

11. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

In April 2017, we granted various equity-based awards relating to Class B Common Stock under our 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan. These awards consisted of the following:



	Number of Shares Subject to Awards	Vesting Period in Years	Grant Date Fair Value
Performance-based restricted shares	307,933	3	$	19.00
Performance-based restricted stock units	88,268	3	$	19.00
Restricted shares	76,980	4	$	19.00
Restricted stock units	169,536	4	$	19.00
Stock options	229,620	4	$	6.37

Prior to our IPO, we granted restricted shares of Class B Common Stock ("Pre-IPO Restricted Shares") to certain management employees that vest generally over a three-year period. The Pre-IPO Restricted Shares must be paid out in shares and are accounted for as equity awards. Cash dividends are not paid on the nonvested Pre-IPO Restricted Shares, nor do they accumulate during the vesting period. No new Pre-IPO Restricted Shares were granted in the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

We adopted ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , effective January 1, 2017. This guidance simplified several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. We elected to estimate forfeitures of share-based payment awards upfront. The impact of adopting the ASU on our consolidated financial statements was immaterial.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of conducting our business we become involved in certain legal matters and investigations on a number of matters, including liability claims, taxes other than income taxes, contract disputes, employment, and other litigation matters. We accrue for anticipated costs to defend and 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 financial statements.

At June 30, 2017 , our firm commitments to purchase transportation equipment totaled approximately $168,410 .

13. SEGMENT REPORTING

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

The Truckload reportable segment consists of three operating segments (Van Truckload, Specialty Dedicated, and Bulk) that are aggregated because they have similar economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria described in the accounting guidance for segment reporting. Van Truckload delivers truckload quantities over irregular routes using dry van trailers. Specialty Dedicated is similar except that it involves recurring routes between the same locations for which specified trucks are dedicated to the route using specialty trailers. Bulk transports key inputs to the manufacturing process such as specialty chemicals using specialty trailers.

The Intermodal reportable segment provides rail intermodal and drayage services to our customers. Company-owned containers and generally Company-owned dray tractors are used to provide these transportation services.

The Logistics reportable segment consists of three operating segments (Brokerage, Supply Chain Management, and Import/Export Services) that are aggregated because they have similar economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria described in the accounting guidance for segment reporting. In the Logistics segment, we provide additional sources of truck

Table of Contents

capacity, manage transportation-systems analysis requirements for individual customers, and provide trans-loading and warehousing services.

We generate other revenues from a captive insurance business and from a leasing business which are operated by wholly-owned subsidiaries. We also have operations in Asia that meet the definition of an operating segment. None of these operations meets the quantitative reporting thresholds. As a result, these operations are grouped in “Other” in the tables below. We have also included in “Other” revenues and expenses that are incidental to our activities and are not attributable to any of the reportable segments.

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 chief operating decision maker reviews revenue for each segment without the inclusion of fuel surcharge revenue. 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 chief operating decision maker for each segment.

The following tables summarize our segment information. Intersegment revenues were immaterial for all segments, with the exception of Other, which included 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 $20,506 and $13,697 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively and $37,379 and $27,894 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes and our Prospectus.

INTRODUCTION

Overview

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. Since our founding in 1935, we believe we have become an iconic and trusted brand within the transportation industry by adhering to a culture of safety “first and always” and upholding our responsibility to our associates, our customers, and the communities that we serve. We differentiate ourselves through our breadth of complementary service offerings, scale, and expertise in services that use specialty equipment, which have high barriers to entry. Our comprehensive and integrated suite of industry-leading service offerings allows us to better meet customer needs and capture a larger share of our customers’ transportation spend.

We categorize our operations into the following reportable segments:

•

Truckload –consists of freight transported and delivered with standard and specialty equipment by our company-employed drivers in company trucks and by owner-operators. Our truckload services include standard long-haul and regional shipping services primarily using dry van equipment and bulk, temperature controlled, final mile “white glove” delivery and customized solutions for high-value and time-sensitive loads. These services are executed through either for-hire or dedicated contracts.


•	Intermodal –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 offers vast coverage throughout North America, including cross-border freight through company containers and trucks.


•	Logistics –consists 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.

We have established a network of facilities across North America to maximize the geographic reach of our company trucks and owner-operators and to provide maintenance services and personal amenities for our drivers. Our portfolio diversity, network density throughout North America, and large fleet allow us to provide an exceptional level of service to our customers and consistently excel as a reliable partner, especially at times of peak demand.

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. Our ability to properly select freight and adapt to changes in customer transportation requirements 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. Although our business volume is diversified, our customers’ financial failures or loss of customer business may also affect us.

Our IPO was completed in April 2017. See Note 1 , General , in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information relating to our IPO.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this section of our report we present the following non-GAAP financial measures: (1) adjusted enterprise revenue (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 adjusted enterprise revenue (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 exogenous 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 germane factors affecting our results of operations and our industry.

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 non-recurring 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 non-recurring 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.

(a)

By the end of 2017, we expect Intermodal to have completed its migration to an owned chassis model, which requires the replacement of rented chassis with owned chassis to improve safety and reliability and increase driver retention. During 2017 we expect to add 10,000 chassis to our owned chassis units, resulting in a total of more than 15,000 owned chassis. The existing lease requirements do not expire until December 31, 2017. Accordingly, we are adjusting our income from operations for rental costs related to idle chassis as rented units are replaced.


(b)	In the second quarter of 2017, we recorded a $12,900 fair value adjustment to the contingent consideration related to the acquisition of WSL. See Note 2 , Acquisition , and Note 3 , Fair Value , for more information.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

(in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

Net Income

Net income increased $ 2,306 , or 5.2% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 . This increase was driven by the impact of a $7,740 after-tax adjustment of a contingent liability related to the WSL acquisition and a lower effective tax rate due to the resolution of tax credits claimed, partially offset by inflationary driver costs and lower gains on sales of equipment. See Note 2 , Acquisition , and Note 3 , Fair Value , for more information. Adjusted net income decreased $4,474 , or 10.1% .

Revenues

Enterprise operating revenues increased $ 80,599 , or 8.1% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 . Significant factors contributing to the increase in revenues were as follows:


•	A $31,877 increase in revenues from WSL, which was acquired on June 1, 2016,


•	A $23,341 increase in revenues in our Other segment, driven by higher revenues generated from our leasing business,


•	A $12,904 increase in revenues in our Logistics segment, driven by growth in our brokerage business, and


•	A $15,880 increase in fuel surcharge revenues for our remaining businesses.

Adjusted enterprise revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $60,332 , or 6.5% , led by an increase in the Truckload segment due to the acquisition of WSL, as well as brokerage growth and higher revenues from our leasing business.

Income from Operations

Enterprise income from operations decreased $ 637 , or 0.8% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 , primarily due to inflationary driver costs and lower gains on sales of equipment, partially offset by the impact of the $12,900 fair value adjustment related to the WSL contingent liability. See Note 2 , Acquisition , and Note 3 , Fair Value , for more information. Adjusted income from operations decreased $ 11,937 , or 15.0% .

Key operating expense items that impacted our income from operations are described below.


•	Purchased transportation costs increased $29,344, or 8.2%, quarter over quarter. The largest driver was an increase in volumes in our Logistics segment, which relies heavily on third-party carriers, resulting in $12,082 higher purchased transportation costs. Truckload segment purchased transportation costs also increased, primarily driven by the acquisition of WSL.


•	Salaries, wages, and benefits increased $24,003, or 8.5%, quarter over quarter due to an increase in associate count primarily as a result of the addition of WSL, and inflationary driver costs.


•	Fuel and fuel taxes increased $6,853, or 10.7%, quarter over quarter, driven by an increase in the cost of fuel per gallon and an increase in total miles. A significant portion of changes in fuel costs is recovered through our fuel surcharge programs.


•	Depreciation and amortization increased $4,793, or 7.5%, quarter over quarter, partially driven by additional depreciation due to the expansion of our fleet with the acquisition of WSL.


•	Operating supplies and expenses increased $22,947, or 21.9%, quarter over quarter. The increase was due to an increase in the amount of equipment sold by our leasing business, resulting in higher cost of goods sold, which flows through operating supplies and expenses.


•	Insurance and related expenses increased $1,653, or 8.9%, quarter over quarter, primarily due to the addition of WSL.

Table of Contents


•	Other general expenses decreased $8,357, or 34.3%, quarter over quarter. The change was primarily due to the adjustment of the WSL contingent liability described in Note 2 , Acquisition , and Note 3 , Fair Value , partially offset by higher driver onboarding costs and increased expenses due to the acquisition of WSL.

Truckload revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $23,507 , or 4.5% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 , primarily due to an increase in revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) of $27,491 from WSL, partially offset by the impact of decreased freight volume in our dedicated standard and for-hire standard businesses. Driver capacity, although stable throughout the quarter, was below the same quarter of the prior year in parts of our Truckload segment. A focus on fleet sizing to freight volume and effective freight selection resulted in an increase in revenue per truck per week of $103 , or 2.9% , over the second quarter of 2016 .

Truckload income from operations decreased $8,474 , or 13.7% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 . Inflationary driver costs and lower gains on sales of equipment due to continued weakness in the used equipment market were partially offset by the impact of improved revenue per truck per week.

(1)	Includes company trucks and owner-operator trucks at the end of the period.


(2)	Calculated excluding fuel surcharge, consistent with how revenue is reported internally for segment purposes.


(3)	Calculated as segment operating expenses divided by segment revenue (excluding fuel surcharge).

Intermodal revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $7,051 , or 3.8% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 . The increase was driven by 10.6% higher volumes, partially offset by a 6.2% decrease in revenue per order due to both the continued competitive pricing environment and growth in the East and intra-West, which have shorter lengths of haul.

Intermodal income from operations decreased $2,414, or 17.7%, in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016. Although volumes and tractor and container productivity improved, the impact of the competitive pricing environment and the increase in duplicate costs due to the 2017 chassis conversion project more than offset those increases. Lease costs related to duplicate idle chassis amounted to $1,600 for the second quarter of 2017 .

Logistics

The following table presents our key performance indicator for our logistics segment for the periods indicated.



	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2017		2016
Operating ratio ⁽¹⁾	96.6	%	95.5	%


(1)	Calculated as segment operating expenses divided by segment revenue (excluding fuel surcharge), consistent with how revenue is reported internally for segment purposes.

Logistics revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $12,904 , or 7.2% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 , primarily due to growth in our brokerage business. Brokerage volume increased 7.6% over the same period in 2016.

Logistics income from operations decreased $1,511 in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 . The revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) growth cited above was more than offset by an increase in third-party transportation costs in brokerage, as evidenced by a decline in gross margins. Brokerage gross margins, however, did increase as the quarter progressed.

Other

Our corporate and other nonreportable operating segments posted income from operations of $7,947 in the second quarter of 2017, as compared to a net loss of $3,815 in the same quarter in 2016. The $11,762 positive change was driven by the $12,900 impact of the adjustment of the WSL contingent liability described in Note 2 , Acquisition , and Note 3 , Fair Value .

Nonoperating Expenses

Nonoperating expenses decreased $1,625 , or 27.0% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 , primarily due to realized gains from foreign currency exchange rate changes. In addition, net interest expense decreased $463 due to lower debt levels and increased interest income due to proceeds from our IPO.

Table of Contents

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes decreased $1,318 , or 4.5% , in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same quarter in 2016 , primarily due to the decrease in income before income taxes. The effective income tax rate was 37.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 40.0% for the same period last year, driven by the resolution of tax credits claimed. We regularly claim tax credits that impact the effective tax rate.

(in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

Net Income

Net income decreased $3,264 , or 4.5% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 , primarily due to inflationary driver costs and lower gains on sales of equipment, partially offset by the impact of a $7,740 after-tax adjustment to the contingent liability related to the WSL acquisition. Adjusted net income decreased $9,264 , or 12.8% .

Revenues

Enterprise operating revenues increased $158,935 , or 8.3% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 . Significant factors contributing to the increase in revenues were as follows:


•	A $75,872 increase in revenues from WSL, which was acquired on June 1, 2016,


•	A $26,130 increase in revenues in our Logistics segment, driven by growth in our brokerage business, and


•	A $44,258 increase in fuel surcharge revenues for our remaining businesses.

Adjusted enterprise revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $104,572 , or 5.8% .

Income from Operations

Enterprise income from operations decreased $9,120 , or 6.9% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 , primarily due to inflationary driver costs and lower gains on sales of equipment, partially offset by the impact of the $12,900 adjustment of a WSL contingent liability. See Note 2 , Acquisition , and Note 3 , Fair Value , for more information. Adjusted income from operations decreased $19,120 , or 14.5% .

Key operating expense items that impacted our income from operations are described below.


•	Purchased transportation costs increased $58,473, or 8.4%, period over period. The largest driver of the increase was an increase in volumes in our Logistics segment, which relies heavily on third-party carriers, resulting in $26,490 higher purchased transportation costs. Truckload segment purchased transportation costs also increased, primarily driven by the acquisition of WSL.


•	Salaries, wages, and benefits increased $44,260, or 7.9%, period over period driven by an increase in associate count, primarily as a result of the acquisition of WSL, and inflationary driver costs. As a percentage of revenues, salaries, wages, and benefits decreased slightly period over period.


•	Fuel and fuel taxes increased $26,641, or 22.6%, period over period, driven by an increase in the cost of fuel per gallon and an increase in total miles. A significant portion of changes in fuel costs is recovered through our fuel surcharge programs.


•	Depreciation and amortization increased $8,768, or 6.9%, period over period. The main driver of the increase was additional depreciation due to the expansion of our fleet with the acquisition of WSL.


•	Operating supplies and expenses increased $29,918, or 14.7%, period over period. The increase was due to an increase in the amount of equipment sold by our leasing business, resulting in higher cost of goods sold, which flows through operating supplies and expenses.


•	Insurance and related expenses increased $4,815, or 12.9%, period over period, partially due to the acquisition of WSL.


•	Other general expenses decreased $4,820, or 9.7%, period over period. The primary reason for the decrease was the $12,900 adjustment of a contingent liability related to the WSL acquisition. See Note 2 , Acquisition , and Note 3 , Fair Value , for more information. Higher driver onboarding costs and higher costs due to the acquisition of WSL partially offset the overall decrease.

Truckload revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $54,892 , or 5.4% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 , primarily due to revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) of $65,768 from WSL, partially offset by decreased freight volumes in our dedicated standard and for-hire standard businesses. A focus on fleet sizing to freight volume and effective freight selection resulted in an increase in revenue per truck per week of $105, or 3.1%, over the first half of 2016.

Truckload income from operations decreased $12,142 , or 11.7% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 , primarily due to lower freight volumes in parts of Truckload and inflationary driver costs, partially offset by operational efficiencies driven by effective fleet sizing and freight selection. Management continues to monitor optimal fleet size to maximize profitability.

Intermodal revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $3,316 , or 0.9% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 . The increase was driven by 8.4% higher volumes, partially offset by a 7.0% decrease in revenue per order due to both the continued competitive pricing environment and growth in the East and intra-West, which have shorter lengths of haul.

Intermodal income from operations decreased $2,869 , or 13.8% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 . Although volumes and tractor and container productivity improved, the impact of the competitive pricing environment and the increase in duplicate costs due to the 2017 chassis conversion project more than offset those increases. Lease costs related to duplicate idle chassis amounted to $2,900 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

Logistics

The following table presents our key performance indicator for our logistics segment for the periods indicated.

Operating ratio ⁽¹⁾	96.9	%	96.2	%


(1)	Calculated as segment operating expenses divided by segment revenue (excluding fuel surcharge), consistent with how revenue is reported internally for segment purposes.

Logistics revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $30,058 , or 8.7% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 , primarily due to growth in our brokerage and import/export businesses. Brokerage volume increased 10.5% over the same period in 2016.

Logistics income from operations decreased $1,505, or 11.3%, in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 . The revenue (excluding fuel surcharge) growth cited above and warehouse operational efficiencies were offset by increased third-party transportation costs, as evidenced by a decline in gross margins.

Other

Our corporate and other nonreportable operating segments income from operations increased $7,396, or 118.6%, driven by the $12,900 adjustment of a contingent liability from the WSL acquisition. This increase was partially offset by higher expenses for our leasing business, which primarily consisted of higher tractor reconditioning expenses.

Nonoperating Expenses

Nonoperating expenses decreased $1,140 , or 10.2% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 , primarily due to realized gains from foreign currency exchange rate changes.

Table of Contents

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes decreased $4,716 , or 9.8% , in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 , primarily due to the decrease in income before income taxes. The effective income tax rate was 38.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 40.0% for the same period last year, driven by the resolution of tax credits claimed. We regularly claim tax credits that impact the effective tax rate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

(in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

Our primary uses of cash are working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and debt service requirements. Additionally, from time to time, 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 upcoming operational expenses. Our capital expenditures consist primarily of transportation equipment and information technology assets.

Historically, our primary source of liquidity has been cash flow from operations. In addition, we also have a $250,000 revolving credit facility and a $200,000 accounts receivable facility to provide us with additional sources of liquidity. In addition to the proceeds we received from our IPO in the second quarter of 2017, 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 they will be obtained through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional equity offerings, or a combination of these potential sources of funds. Our ability to fund future operating expenses and capital expenditures and 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.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

(in thousands, unless otherwise indicated)

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $ 38,673 , or 14.6% , in the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 . The decrease was driven by a $21,600 higher income tax refund received in 2016 versus 2017, as well as the timing of payables.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities decreased $ 145,885 , or 47.4% , in the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 . The main driver of the decrease in cash used was the quarter-over-quarter impact of the June 2016 acquisition of WSL, which resulted in a net cash outflow of $ 78,221 in the prior year. The remaining decrease in cash used was driven by lower transportation equipment purchases in the first quarter of 2017. We accelerated tractor purchases in the beginning of 2016 in anticipation of a continued weakening of the used tractor market in the second half of the year.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities increased $ 83,944 , or 421% , in the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 . We received approximately $341,000 of proceeds from our IPO in April 2017. Factors that offset the increase in cash from the IPO were:


•	A $126,052 net cash outflow related to our accounts receivable facility. We borrowed $75,000 in the first half of 2016 and repaid $50,000 in the first half of 2017 using IPO proceeds.


•	The repayment of a $100,000 senior note using IPO proceeds.


•	A deferred payment of approximately $19,000 to the former owners of WSL, which included a reduction for a working capital adjustment.

Other Considerations That Could Affect Our Results, Liquidity, and Capital Resources

Electronic Logging Device Mandate

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration issued its final rule mandating the use of electronic logging devices in December 2015. Under the rule, carriers have until December 2017 to adopt and use compliant devices. In March 2016, the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association filed a legal complaint, asking the U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals to strike down the rule on the grounds that it is an unconstitutional violation of truckers’ rights and will do little to enhance safety. In October 2016, the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the rule, and in June 2017 the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal from that decision, making the lower court decision final. We are already in compliance with the requirements of the rule, and we fully support the mandate, as it aligns well with our focus on safety and integrity.

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

Table of Contents

opportunities that become available in the economy, and individual drivers’ desire to be home more frequently can affect availability of drivers, including by increasing the wages our drivers require.

Factors That Could Result in a Goodwill Impairment

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually using the discounted cash flow approach in calculating the fair values of our reporting units. Key inputs used in this 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.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no arrangements that meet the definition of off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

See the disclosure under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Contractual Obligations” in the Prospectus for our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2016. There were no material changes to our contractual obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2017 except for the repayment of the debt obligations referenced above.
