Mario Harik, chief executive officer of XPO, said, "We reported strong year-over-year earnings growth in the third quarter, as we continued to improve the business in a soft freight environment. Companywide, we increased adjusted EBITDA by 20% and adjusted diluted EPS by 16%.

"In North American LTL, we grew adjusted operating income by 17% and achieved an adjusted operating ratio of 84.2% — 200 basis points better than the prior year, at the high end of our target range. We drove yield, ex-fuel, higher by 6.7% and increased revenue per shipment by 6.6%, underpinned by pricing gains. In addition, we generated stronger operating leverage on our top-line growth by managing variable costs more effectively with our proprietary technology. And we're tracking three years ahead of plan with linehaul insourcing, which enhances our network efficiency and quality of service."

Harik continued, "We're delivering on the strong results we promised for 2024, while positioning the business to accelerate earnings growth when the freight market recovers. The world-class service we provide creates value for our customers and will continue to be a key driver of our margin expansion."

Third Quarter Highlights

For the third quarter 2024, the company generated revenue of $2.05 billion, compared with $1.98 billion for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase in revenue was due primarily to higher yield in the North American LTL segment and volume growth in the European Transportation segment.

Operating income was $176 million for the third quarter, compared with $154 million for the same period in 2023. Net income from continuing operations was $95 million for the third quarter, compared with $86 million for the same period in 2023. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per share was $0.79 for the third quarter, compared with $0.72 for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted net income from continuing operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $122 million for the third quarter, compared with $105 million for the same period in 2023. Adjusted diluted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $1.02 for the third quarter, compared with $0.88 for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"), a non-GAAP financial measure, was $333 million for the third quarter, compared with $278 million for the same period in 2023.

The company generated $264 million of cash flow from operating activities in the third quarter and ended the quarter with $378 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand, after $123 million of net capital expenditures.

Results by Business Segment

North American Less-Than-Truckload (LTL): The segment generated revenue of $1.25 billion for the third quarter 2024, compared with $1.23 billion for the same period in 2023. On a year-over-year basis, shipments per day decreased 3.2%, tonnage per day decreased 3.9%, and yield, excluding fuel, increased 6.7%. Including fuel, yield increased 3.7%.

Operating income was $188 million for the third quarter 2024, compared with $161 million for the same period in 2023. Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $198 million for the third quarter, compared with $170 million for the same period in 2023. Adjusted operating ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, was 84.2%, reflecting a year-over-year improvement of 200 basis points.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2024 was $284 million, compared with $241 million for the same period in 2023. The 18% increase in adjusted EBITDA was due primarily to higher yield, excluding fuel, and lower purchased transportation costs year-over-year, partially offset by lower fuel surcharge revenue.

European Transportation: The segment generated revenue of $803 million for the third quarter 2024, compared with $752 million for the same period in 2023, primarily driven by volume growth. Operating income was $6 million for the third quarter, compared with $8 million for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA was $44 million for both the third quarter 2024 and the same period in 2023.

Corporate: The segment generated an operating loss of $18 million for the third quarter 2024, compared with a loss of $15 million for the same period in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $5 million for the third quarter 2024, compared with a loss of $7 million for the same period in 2023, including a benefit of $9 million from a gain on a past investment in a private company that was sold in the quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), we provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release to the most directly comparable measure under GAAP, which are set forth in the financial tables attached to this press release.

XPO's non-GAAP financial measures in this press release include: adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA") on a consolidated basis and for corporate; adjusted EBITDA margin on a consolidated basis; adjusted net income from continuing operations; adjusted diluted earnings from continuing operations per share ("adjusted diluted EPS"); adjusted operating income for our North American Less-Than-Truckload and European Transportation segments; and adjusted operating ratio for our North American Less-Than-Truckload segment.

We believe that the above adjusted financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be reflective of, or are unrelated to, XPO and its business segments' core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying businesses. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore our measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should only be used as supplemental measures of our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating ratio include adjustments for transaction and integration costs, as well as restructuring costs and other adjustments as set forth in the attached tables. Transaction and integration adjustments are generally incremental costs that result from an actual or planned acquisition, divestiture or spin-off and may include transaction costs, consulting fees, stock-based compensation, retention awards, internal salaries and wages (to the extent the individuals are assigned full-time to integration and transformation activities) and certain costs related to integrating and converging IT systems. Restructuring costs primarily relate to severance costs associated with business optimization initiatives. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating XPO's and each business segment's ongoing performance.

We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin improve comparability from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest and financing expenses), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax impacts and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables that management has determined are not reflective of core operating activities and thereby assist investors with assessing trends in our underlying businesses. We believe that adjusted net income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted EPS improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain costs and gains that management has determined are not reflective of our core operating activities, including amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables. We believe that adjusted operating income and adjusted operating ratio improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain transaction and integration costs and restructuring costs, as well as amortization expenses as set out in the attached tables.
