We define Adjusted EPS as (1) income (loss) before income taxes plus (i) amortization of the intangibles from our 2007 going-private transaction, (ii) non-cash impairments, (iii) other special non-cash items, (iv) excludable transaction costs, (v) the mark-to-market adjustment on our interest rate swaps that is recognized in the statement of operations in a given period, and (vi) the amortization of previous losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate swaps we terminated upon our IPO and refinancing transactions in December 2010; (2) reduced by income taxes at 39%, our normalized effective tax rate; (3) divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. We believe the presentation of financial results excluding the impact of the items noted above provides a consistent basis for comparing our results from period to period and to those of our peers due to the non-comparable nature of the intangibles from our going-private transaction, the historical volatility of the interest rate derivative agreements and the non-operating nature of the impairment charges, transaction costs and other adjustment items. Adjusted EPS is not presented in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. The numbers reflected in the above table are calculated on a per share basis and may not foot due to rounding.

Revenue equipment with a carrying amount of $3.6 million was written down to its fair value of $2.3 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2010.

Incremental pre-tax depreciation expense of $7.4 million reflecting management’s revised estimates regarding salvage value and useful lives for approximately 7,000 dry van trailers, which management decided during the first quarter of 2010 to scrap over the next few years.

Mark-to-market adjustment of interest rate swaps of $5.7 million and $16.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, reflects the portion of the change in fair value of these financial instruments which was recorded in earnings and excludes any portion recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income under cash flow hedge accounting.

Amortization of certain intangibles reflects the non-cash amortization expense of $4.3 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $8.8 million and $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, relating to certain intangible assets identified in the 2007 going-private transaction through which Swift Corporation acquired Swift Transportation Co.

Amortization of unrealized losses on interest rate swaps reflects the non-cash amortization expense of $4.0 million and $8.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, included in derivative interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations and is comprised of previous losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate swaps we terminated upon our IPO and concurrent refinancing transactions in December 2010. Such losses were incurred in prior periods when hedge accounting applied to the swaps and are being expensed in relation to the hedged interest payments through the original maturity of the swaps in August 2012.

We define Adjusted Operating Ratio as (a) total operating expenses, less (i) fuel surcharge revenue, (ii) non-cash impairment charges, (iii) certain other items, and (iv) excludable transaction costs, as a percentage of (b) total revenue excluding fuel surcharge revenue. We believe fuel surcharge is sometimes volatile and eliminating the impact of this source of revenue (by netting fuel surcharge revenue against fuel expense) affords a more consistent basis for comparing our results of operations. We also believe excluding impairments and other special items enhances the comparability of our performance from period to period. Adjusted Operating Ratio is not a recognized measure under GAAP. Adjusted Operating Ratio should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP.

We have not included adjustments to Adjusted Operating Ratio to reflect the non-cash amortization expense of $4.3 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $8.8 million and $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, relating to certain intangible assets identified in the 2007 going-private transaction through which Swift Corporation acquired Swift Transportation Co.
