Truck Results Q1 2012
Truckload net revenue growth was driven by volume growth, partially offset by
decreased net revenue margin.
Decline in Truckload net revenue margin due to cost per mile rising faster than
price per mile, and the higher cost of fuel.
Pricing decisions are decentralized and driven by customer-specific account
management strategies.
Less-than-Truckload (LTL) net revenue growth was driven primarily by
increased volumes and increased pricing, offset partially by a decreased net
revenue margin. In thousands

Summarized Income Statement
Overall, operating expenses grew slower than net revenues

decrease was driven by a reduction in certain incentive compensation plans
that are based on growth in earnings, including our restricted stock
program.
Other operating expense growth was driven primarily by an increase in the provision
for doubtful accounts and travel expenses.
