Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Organization, Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is headquartered in Cudahy, Wisconsin and has the following three operating segments: Truckload Logistics (“TL”), Less-than-Truckload (“LTL”), and Global Solutions. Within its TL business, the Company operates a network of 46 TL service centers and 21 company dispatch offices and is augmented by over 100 independent brokerage agents. Within its LTL business, the Company operates 45 LTL service centers throughout the United States, complemented by relationships with over 150 delivery agents. Within its Global Solutions business, the Company operates from seven service centers, ten dispatch offices, and five freight consolidation and inventory management centers throughout the United States. From pickup to delivery, the Company leverages relationships with a diverse group of third-party carriers to provide scalable capacity and reliable, customized service to its customers, including domestic and international air and ocean transportation services. The Company operates primarily in the United States.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the Company's opinion, except as noted below with respect to the change in accounting principle and the change in reportable segments, these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the operations for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
Change in Accounting Principle
On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted a new methodology for accounting for debt issuance costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), which requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability in the balance sheet to be presented as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The change in methodology has been applied retrospectively. The balance of the debt issuance costs has been reclassified from other noncurrent assets to a direct reduction of long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Reporting
The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief operating decision maker, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, to allocate resources and assess performance. Based on this information, the Company has determined that it has three operating segments, which are also its reportable segments: TL, LTL, and Global Solutions. In 2016, the Company realigned two of its operating companies to different existing reportable segments based on consideration of services provided and alignment with segment management. The change in reportable segments, which affected the TL and Global Solutions segments, did not have any impact on previously reported consolidated financial results, but prior year segment results have been revised to align with the new reportable segment structure.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 ("ASU 2014-09"), which was updated in August 2015 by Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-08 ("ASU 2016-08"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). Under ASU 2016-08, when another party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, an entity is required to determine whether the nature of its promise is to provide the specified good or service (that is, the entity is a principal) or to

4


arrange for that good or service to be provided by another party. When the principal entity satisfies a performance obligation, the entity recognizes revenue in the gross amount. When an entity that is an agent satisfies the performance obligation, that entity recognizes revenue in the amount of any fee or commission to which it expects to be entitled. Both ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2016-08 will be effective for the Company in 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the guidance in these Accounting Standards Updates and has not yet determined if the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (Topic 740), which will be effective for the Company in 2017. The amendments in this update require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in the statement of financial position. Under this amendment, deferred tax liabilities and assets would still be offset and presented as a single amount. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted and may either be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Deferred tax assets are currently reported as deferred income taxes and included as current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Adoption of the revised Accounting Standard will require the Company to reclassify the balance currently reported as deferred income taxes to other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will be effective for the Company in 2019. For financing leases, a lessee is required to: 1) recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments; 2) recognize interest on the lease liability separately from amortization of the right-of-use asset; and 3) classify repayments of the principal portion of the lease liability within financing activities and payments of interest on the lease liability and variable lease payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. For operating leases, a lessee is required to: 1) recognize the right-to-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments; 2) recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term on a generally straight-line basis; and 3) classify all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company is in the process of evaluating the guidance in this Accounting Standards Update and has not yet determined if the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). ASU 2016-09 will be effective for the Company in 2017 and includes simplification of the following aspects of share-based payment transactions:
Accounting for income taxes - All excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies (including tax benefits of dividends on share-based payment awards) should be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The tax effects of exercised or vested awards should be treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. An entity also should recognize excess tax benefits regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period.
Classification of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flow - Excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity.
Forfeitures - An entity can make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest (current GAAP) or account for forfeitures when they occur.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the guidance in this Accounting Standards Update and has not yet determined if the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2. Acquisitions
On July 28, 2015, the Company acquired all of the outstanding partnership interests of Stagecoach Cartage and Distribution LP ("Stagecoach") for the purpose of expanding its presence within the TL segment. Cash consideration paid was $32.3 million. The acquisition was financed with borrowings under the Company's credit facility discussed in Note 5. The Stagecoach purchase agreement calls for contingent consideration in the form of an earnout capped at $5.0 million. The former owners of Stagecoach are entitled to receive a payment equal to the amount by which Stagecoach's operating income before depreciation and amortization, as defined in the purchase agreement, exceeds $7.0 million for the twelve month periods ending July 31, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019. Approximately $4.1 million was included in the TL purchase price allocation related to this earnout on the opening balance sheet.
The results of operations and financial condition of this acquisition have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements since its acquisition date. The acquisition of Stagecoach is considered immaterial. The goodwill for the acquisition is a result of acquiring and retaining the existing workforce and expected synergies from integrating the operations into the Company. Purchase accounting for the Stagecoach acquisition is considered final except for deferred taxes and goodwill, as final information was not available as of June 30, 2016.
3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of all acquisitions over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired. The Company evaluates goodwill and intangible assets for impairment at least annually or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired, or in the case of goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is below its carrying amount. The analysis of potential impairment of goodwill requires a two-step approach that begins with the estimation of the fair value at the reporting unit level. The Company has four reporting units for its three operating segments: one reporting unit for its TL segment; one reporting unit for its LTL segment; and two reporting units for its Global Solutions segment.
For purposes of the impairment analysis, the fair value of the Company's reporting units is estimated based upon an average of an income fair value approach and a market fair value approach, both of which incorporate numerous assumptions and estimates such as company forecasts, discount rates, and growth rates, among others. The determination of fair value requires considerable judgment and is highly sensitive to changes in the underlying assumptions. The Company completed the annual impairment analysis as of July 1, 2015, and determined no impairment had occurred.
A decline in TL and LTL revenues due to lower freight volumes and pricing, as well as operating cost increases in both reporting units due to higher insurance claims, independent contractor termination costs, and excess capacity during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, resulted in operating performance that fell below the projections used by the Company in its interim goodwill impairment assessments performed as of September 30, 2015 for the Company's LTL reporting unit and as of March 31, 2016 for the Company's TL reporting unit, which indicated that the fair value exceeded the carrying value by approximately 65% and 87% for the LTL and TL reporting units, respectively. Accordingly, the Company is required to perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis of its TL and LTL reporting units as of June 30, 2016. Due to the significant effort that is required to determine the implied fair value of reporting units' goodwill, through assessing growth, operating margin, and discount rate assumptions, as well as the lack of updated market data, the Company has not completed this interim goodwill impairment analysis and will complete the analysis during the third quarter of 2016.
As indicated in Note 1, in connection with the change in reportable segments, the Company reallocated goodwill of $77.5 million between the TL and Global Solutions segments as of December 31, 2015. The following is a rollforward of goodwill from December 31, 2015 to June 30, 2016 by reportable segment (in thousands):

The customer relationships intangible assets are amortized over their estimated five to 12 year useful lives. Amortization expense was $2.1 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Amortization expense was $4.3 million and $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Estimated amortization expense for each of the next five years based on intangible assets as of June 30, 2016 is as follows (in thousands):

4. Fair Value Measurement
Accounting guidance on fair value measurements for certain financial assets and liabilities requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions or external inputs from inactive markets.
A financial asset’s or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Certain of the Company’s acquisitions contain contingent purchase obligations in the form of earn-outs as described in Note 2. The contingent purchase obligation related to acquisitions is measured at fair value on a recurring basis, according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine fair value. Changes to the fair value are recognized as income or expense within other operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In measuring the fair value of the contingent purchase obligation, the Company used an income approach that considers the expected future earnings of the acquired businesses, for the varying performance periods, based on historical performance and the resulting contingent payments, discounted at a risk-adjusted rate. The range of undiscounted outcomes for the estimated contingent payments is zero to $6.5 million.

On September 24, 2015, the Company entered into a sixth amended and restated credit agreement (the "credit agreement") with U.S. Bank National Association and other lenders, which increased the revolving credit facility from $350.0 million to $400.0 million and the term loan from $200.0 million to $300.0 million. The credit facility matures on July 9, 2019. Principal on the term loan is due in quarterly installments of $3.8 million. On June 17, 2016, the Company entered into a Consent, Waiver, and First Amendment (the "Amendment") to the credit agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company, among other things, reduced the revolving line of credit under the senior credit facility from a maximum aggregate amount of $400.0 million to $300.0 million.
The credit agreement is collateralized by all assets of the Company and contains certain financial covenants, including a maximum cash flow leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. Pursuant to the Amendment, the maximum cash flow leverage ratio and minimum fixed charge coverage ratio were modified for certain future periods. As modified by the Amendment, the maximum cash flow leverage ratio was 4.50 to 1.0 for the four quarters ended June 30, 2016 and decreases to 4.00 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending September 30, 2016, 3.75 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending December 31, 2016, 3.50 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending March 31, 2017, 3.25 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending June 30, 2017, and finally to 3.00 to 1.0 for all periods thereafter. As modified by the Amendment, the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.15 to 1.0 for the four quarters ended June 30, 2016, continues to be 1.15 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending September 30, 2016 and December 30, 2016, and finally increases to 1.25 to 1.0 for all periods thereafter. The Company was in compliance with all of the financial cov

8


enants contained in the credit agreement (as modified by the Amendment) for the four quarters ended June 30, 2016. See the section titled "Capital and Liquidity Resources" in "Management's Discussion and Analysis" for further discussion.
Additionally, the credit agreement contains negative covenants limiting, among other things, additional indebtedness, capital expenditures, transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments, advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions, and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. The credit agreement also prohibits the Company from paying dividends without the consent of the lenders.
The Company categorizes the borrowings under the credit agreement as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy described in Note 4. The carrying value of the Company's long-term debt approximates fair value as the debt agreement bears interest based on prevailing variable market rates currently available. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at either (a) the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 2.0% to 3.50%, or (b) the Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 1.0% to 2.50%. The revolving credit facility also provides for the issuance of up to $40.0 million in letters of credit. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $22.8 million. As of June 30, 2016, total availability under the revolving credit facility was $153.7 million and the average interest rate on the credit agreement was 4.0%.

7. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common stock outstanding plus stock equivalents that would arise from the assumed exercise of stock options, the conversion of warrants, and the delivery of stock underlying restricted stock units using the treasury stock method. There is no difference, for any of the periods presented, in the amount of net income available to common stockholders used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.
The Company had stock options and warrants outstanding of 2,866,031 as of June 30, 2016 that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were not assumed to be exercised under the treasury stock method or because they were anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2015, all stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

8. Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate was 38.7% for three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. In determining the provision for income taxes, the Company used an estimated annual effective tax rate, which was based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates, and the Company's best estimate of non-deductible and non-taxable items of income and expense. Income tax expense varies from the amount computed by applying the federal corporate income tax rate of 35.0% to income before income taxes primarily due to state income taxes, net of federal income tax effect, and adjustments for permanent differences.
9. Guarantees
The Company provides a guarantee for a portion of the value of certain independent contractors' ("IC") leased tractors.  The guarantees expire at various dates through 2020.  The potential maximum exposure under these lease guarantees was approximately $14.6 million as of June 30, 2016.  The potential maximum exposure represents the Company’s commitment on remaining lease payments on guaranteed leases as of June 30, 2016.  However, upon an IC default, the Company has the option to purchase the tractor or return the tractor to the leasing company if the residual value is greater than the Company’s guarantee. Alternatively, the Company can contract another IC to assume the lease.  The declining quality and performance of the equipment in certain lease purchase programs has caused escalating repair and maintenance expenses for the Company's ICs, which coupled with the softened demand experienced during the third quarter of 2015, resulted in increased turnover and default by certain ICs. As a result, the Company experienced an acceleration of its IC recruiting costs, guarantee payments, and reseating and reconditioning costs associated with these lease purchase programs. Accordingly, the Company decided to terminate certain lease purchase guarantee programs in favor of new lease purchase programs that do not involve a guarantee from the Company and utilize newer equipment under warranty. The Company paid $1.1 million and $3.2 million during the second quarter of 2016 and first half of 2016, respectively, associated with the lease purchase guarantee equipment. Payments made by the Company under the guarantees were de minimis during the second quarter of 2015 and for the first half of 2015.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a defendant in several legal proceedings arising out of the conduct of its business. These proceedings include claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with the Company’s services. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these proceedings, the Company does not believe, based upon the information available at this time, that these property damage or personal injury claims, in the aggregate, will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company maintains liability insurance coverage for claims in excess of $500,000 per occurrence and cargo coverage for claims in excess of $100,000 per occurrence. The Company believes it has adequate insurance to cover losses in excess of the deductible amount. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had reserves for estimated uninsured losses of $6.4 million and $7.2 million, respectively.
In addition to the legal proceedings described above, like many others in the transportation services industry, the Company is a defendant in six purported class-action lawsuits in California alleging violations of various California labor laws and one purported class-action lawsuit in Illinois alleging violations of the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act. The plaintiffs in each of these lawsuits seek to recover unspecified monetary damages and other items. In addition, the California Division of Labor Standards and Enforcement has brought administrative actions against the Company on behalf of twelve individuals alleging that the Company violated California labor laws. Given the early stage of all of the proceedings described in this paragraph, the Company is not able to assess with certainty the outcome of these proceedings or the amount or range of potential damages or future payments associated with these proceedings at this time. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to these actions and intends to defend these proceedings vigorously. However, any legal proceeding is subject to inherent uncertainties, and the

10


Company cannot assure that the expenses associated with defending these actions or their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results, or financial condition.
11. Related Party Transactions
The Company has an advisory agreement with HCI Equity Management L.P. (“HCI”) that requires the Company to pay transaction fees and an annual advisory fee of $0.1 million. The Company paid an aggregate of $0.2 million to HCI for advisory fees and travel expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company paid an aggregate of $0.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 to HCI for the advisory fee and travel expenses incurred.
The Company has a number of facility leases with related parties and paid an aggregate of $0.6 million and $0.1 million under these leases during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company paid an aggregate of $1.2 million and $0.3 million under these leases during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, the Company entered into and completed a sale leaseback transaction to sell the Stagecoach corporate office to an entity owned by one of the former owners of Stagecoach for a total sale price of $3.5 million. The Company recognized a gain of $0.9 million on the sale of the property, which is recorded in other operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.
12. Segment Reporting
The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief operating decision maker, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, to allocate resources and assess performance. Based on this information, the Company has determined that it has three operating segments, which are also reportable segments: TL, LTL, and Global Solutions. As indicated in Note 1, the Company realigned two of its operating companies into different reportable segments. Segment disclosures as of December 31, 2015 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 have been revised to reflect this change in reportable segments.
These reportable segments are strategic business units through which the Company offers different services. The Company evaluates the performance of the segments primarily based on their respective revenues and operating income. Accordingly, interest expense and other non-operating items are not reported in segment results. In addition, the Company has disclosed a corporate segment, which is not an operating segment and includes acquisition transaction expenses, corporate salaries, and share-based compensation expense.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. This discussion and analysis should also be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” relating to our results for the year ended December 31, 2015, set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Overview
We are a leading asset-light transportation and logistics service provider offering a comprehensive suite of global supply chain solutions, including truckload logistics, customized and expedited less-than-truckload, intermodal solutions (transporting a shipment by more than one mode, primarily via rail and truck), freight consolidation, inventory management, expedited services, air freight, international freight forwarding, customs brokerage, and transportation management solutions. We utilize a broad third-party network of transportation providers, comprised of ICs and purchased power providers, to serve a diverse customer base in terms of end-market focus and annual freight expenditures. Our business model is highly scalable and flexible, featuring a variable cost structure that requires minimal investment (as a percentage of revenues) in transportation equipment and facilities, thereby enhancing free cash flow generation and returns on our invested capital and assets.
We have three reportable operating segments:
Truckload Logistics. Within our TL business, we arrange the pickup and delivery of truckload, intermodal and ground and air expedited freight through our network of 46 TL service centers, 21 company dispatch offices, and over 100 independent brokerage agents located throughout the United States, Mexico, and Canada. We offer temperature-controlled, dry van, intermodal drayage, and flatbed services and specialize in the transport of automotive parts, refrigerated and frozen foods, and beverages. Our on-demand ground and air expedited services feature proprietary bid technology supported by our fleets of ground and air assets. We believe this array of services and specialization provides our customers with full-service options and consistent shipping volume year-over-year.
Less-than-Truckload. Our LTL business involves the pickup, consolidation, linehaul, deconsolidation, and delivery of LTL shipments throughout the United States and into Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Canada. With a network of 45 LTL service centers and over 150 third-party delivery agents, we employ a point-to-point LTL model that we believe serves as a competitive advantage over the traditional hub and spoke LTL model in terms of faster transit times, lower incidence of damage, and reduced fuel consumption.
Global Solutions. Within our Global Solutions business, we offer a “one-stop” domestic and international transportation and logistics solution, including access to the most cost-effective and time-sensitive modes of transportation within our broad network. Specifically, our Global Solutions offering includes pricing, contract management, transportation mode and carrier selection, freight tracking, freight bill payment and audit, cost reporting and analysis, dispatch, and freight consolidation and warehousing. Our customized Global Solutions offering is designed to allow our customers to reduce operating costs, redirect resources to core competencies, improve supply chain efficiency, and enhance customer service. Our Global Solutions business also includes domestic and international air and ocean transportation services and customs brokerage.
Our success principally depends on our ability to generate revenues through our network of sales personnel, proprietary bid technology, and independent brokerage agents and to deliver freight in all modes safely, on time, and cost-effectively through a suite of solutions tailored to the needs of each customer. Customer shipping demand, over-the-road freight tonnage levels, events leading to expedited shipping requirements, and equipment capacity ultimately drive increases or decreases in our revenues. Our ability to operate profitably and generate cash is also impacted by purchased transportation costs, fuel costs, pricing dynamics, customer mix, and our ability to manage costs effectively. Within our TL business, we typically charge a flat rate negotiated on each load hauled. Within our LTL business, we typically generate revenues by charging our customers a rate based on shipment weight, distance hauled, and commodity type. This amount is typically comprised of a base rate, a fuel surcharge, and any applicable service fees. Within our Global Solutions business, we typically charge a variable rate on each shipment, in addition to transaction or service fees appropriate for the solution we have provided to meet a specific customer’s needs.
We incur costs that are directly related to the transportation of freight, including purchased transportation costs. We also incur indirect costs associated with the transportation of freight that include other operating costs, such as insurance, claims, and

13


commission expenses. In addition, we incur personnel–related costs and other operating expenses, collectively discussed herein as other operating expenses, essential to administering our operations. We continually monitor all components of our cost structure and establish annual budgets, which are generally used to benchmark costs incurred on a monthly basis.
Purchased transportation costs within our TL business are generally based on negotiated rates for each load hauled. Purchased transportation costs within our LTL business represent amounts we pay to ICs or purchased power providers and are generally contractually agreed-upon rates. Within our Global Solutions business, purchased transportation costs include payments made to our purchased power providers, which are generally contractually agreed-upon rates. Purchased transportation costs are the largest component of our cost structure. Our purchased transportation costs typically increase or decrease in proportion to revenues.
Our ability to maintain or grow existing tonnage levels is impacted by overall economic conditions, shipping demand, and over-the-road freight capacity in North America, as well as by our ability to compete effectively in terms of pricing, safety, and on-time delivery.
The pricing environment in the transportation industry also impacts our operating performance. Pricing within our TL business is typically driven by shipment frequency and consistency, length of haul, and customer and geographic mix, but generally has fewer influential factors than pricing within our LTL business. Within our LTL business, we typically generate revenues by charging our customers a rate based on shipment weight, distance hauled, and commodity type. This amount is comprised of a base rate, a fuel surcharge, and any applicable service fees. Our LTL pricing is typically measured by billed revenue per hundredweight, which is often referred to as “yield.” Our LTL pricing is dictated primarily by factors such as shipment size, shipment frequency and consistency, length of haul, freight density, and customer and geographic mix. Within our Global Solutions business, we typically charge a variable rate on each shipment in addition to transaction or service fees appropriate for the solution we have provided to meet a specific customer’s needs. Since we offer both LTL and TL shipping as part of our Global Solutions offering, pricing within our Global Solutions segment is impacted by similar factors. The pricing environment for all of our operations generally becomes more competitive during periods of lower industry tonnage levels and increased capacity within the over-the-road freight sector. In addition, when we provide international freight forwarding services in our Global Solutions business, we also contract with airlines, ocean carriers, and agents as needed. The international markets are very dynamic and we must therefore adjust rates regularly based on market conditions.
The transportation industry is dependent upon the availability of adequate fuel supplies and the price of fuel. Fuel prices have fluctuated dramatically over recent years. Within our TL and Global Solutions businesses, we pass fuel costs through to our customers. As a result, our operating income in these businesses is less impacted by changes in fuel prices. Within our LTL business, our ICs and purchased power providers pass along the cost of diesel fuel to us, and we in turn attempt to pass along some or all of these costs to our customers through fuel surcharge revenue programs. Although revenues from fuel surcharges generally offset increases in fuel costs, other operating costs have been, and may continue to be, impacted by fluctuating fuel prices. The total impact of higher energy prices on other nonfuel-related expenses is difficult to ascertain. We cannot predict future fuel price fluctuations, the impact of higher energy prices on other cost elements, recoverability of higher fuel costs through fuel surcharges, and the effect of fuel surcharges on our overall rate structure or the total price that we will receive from our customers. Depending on the changes in the fuel rates and the impact on costs in other fuel- and energy-related areas, our operating margins could be impacted.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2015
Revenues
Consolidated revenues decreased by $34.5 million, or 6.7%, to $483.4 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $517.9 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to continuing declines in freight rates and volumes across most end markets and lower fuel surcharge revenue of $20.1 million quarter over quarter.
TL revenues decreased slightly to $282.2 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $285.9 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to an increase of $25.7 million in OEM ground and air expedited freight, which resulted from both organic growth and through our acquisition of Stagecoach. These increases were offset by decreases in fuel surcharge revenue of $14.8 million, as well as decreased volumes, continued softness in the spot market, and weakened demands, all of which were driven by excess capacity in the industry.
LTL revenues decreased by $16.6 million, or 11.9%, to $122.3 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $138.9 million during the second quarter of 2015. LTL revenues were impacted by continued weakened freight demand in the general industrial markets we serve, a drop in fuel prices that resulted in a $5.3 million, or 29.5%, decrease in fuel surcharge revenue, and a 12.7% reduction in tonnage primarily due to changes in freight mix. These decreases were partially offset by a 4.4% increase in revenue per hundredweight excluding fuel from the prior year second quarter due to improved pricing and positive freight mix changes resulting from our pricing initiatives.
Global Solutions revenues decreased by $16.4 million, or 16.3%, to $83.6 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $100.0 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to a decrease in domestic transportation management and lower volumes and rates in international freight forwarding, partially offset by increases in the warehousing and consolidation business.
Purchased Transportation Costs
Consolidated purchased transportation costs decreased by $28.6 million, or 8.3%, to $317.5 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $346.1 million during the second quarter of 2015.
TL purchased transportation costs decreased $4.6 million, or 2.5%, to $180.7 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $185.3 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to decreased volumes and weakened demand, as well as increased use of employee drivers, which are reported in other operating expenses.
LTL purchased transportation costs decreased by $11.4 million, or 11.8%, to $85.0 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $96.4 million during the second quarter of 2015. The decreases were consistent with the decreases in revenue, excluding fuel surcharge, and primarily the result of weakened freight demand. Excluding fuel surcharges, our average linehaul cost per mile remained steady at $1.25 during the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015.
Global Solutions purchased transportation costs decreased by $14.7 million, or 20.7%, to $56.5 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $71.2 million during the second quarter of 2015. The decreases were primarily due to the lower volumes and market rates in the international freight forwarding and domestic freight management business.
Other Operating Expenses
Consolidated other operating expenses, which reflect the sum of personnel and related benefits, other operating expenses, and acquisition transaction expenses shown in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, increased by $14.7 million, or 11.1%, to $147.8 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $133.1 million during the second quarter of 2015.
Within our TL business, other operating expenses increased by $12.7 million, or 16.8%, to $88.4 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $75.7 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily as a result of our acquisition of Stagecoach, which accounted for $7.9 million of the increase, increased insurance and claims expense of $1.3 million, increased independent contractor termination and recruiting costs of $1.0 million, and increased employee costs of $2.3 million in the OEM group. These costs were partially offset by a gain of $1.5 million on the sale leaseback transaction at Stagecoach, as well as the sale of assets at one of our operating companies as a result of the reduction and consolidation of that operation due to a major decline in volume from a significant customer.
Within our LTL business, other operating expenses increased by $2.1 million, or 6.3%, to $35.6 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $33.5 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to increased insurance and claims expense of $1.6 million and increased building lease and maintenance expense of $0.5 million.
Within our Global Solutions business, other operating expenses increased by $0.3 million, or 1.4%, to $19.2 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $18.9 million during the second quarter of 2015.

17


Other operating expenses that were not allocated to our TL, LTL, or Global Solutions businesses decreased to $4.7 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $5.0 million during the second quarter of 2015.
Depreciation and Amortization
Consolidated depreciation and amortization increased to $9.5 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $7.5 million during the second quarter of 2015, reflecting increases in property, plant, and equipment attributable to our acquisitions and our growth and productivity initiatives.

Depreciation and amortization within our TL business increased to $6.8 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $5.2 million during the second quarter of 2015. Within our LTL business, depreciation and amortization increased to $1.0 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2015. Within our Global Solutions business, depreciation and amortization remained consistent at $1.3 million during both the second quarter of 2016 and 2015. Corporate depreciation and amortization increased to $0.4 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $0.3 million during the second quarter of 2015.
Operating Income
Consolidated operating income was $8.6 million during the second quarter of 2016 compared with $31.2 million during the second quarter of 2015.
Within our TL business, operating income decreased by $13.5 million, or 68.2%, to $6.2 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $19.7 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily as a result of the margin reductions in our OEM ground and air expedite business due to excess capacity in both modes, as well as the factors above. Operating income in our TL business for the second quarter of 2016 includes downsizing costs of $2.5 million from the reduction and consolidation of a specific operation due to a major decline in volume from a significant customer.
Within our LTL business, operating income decreased by $7.6 million, or 91.0%, to $0.8 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $8.4 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily as a result of the factors above. Operating income in our LTL business for the second quarter of 2016 includes $0.6 million of downsizing costs associated with reducing the number of long haul employee drivers and trucks in favor of more cost effective purchase power and ICs.
Within our Global Solutions business, operating income decreased by $1.9 million, or 22.0% to $6.7 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $8.6 million during the second quarter of 2015.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased to $5.7 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $4.4 million during the second quarter of 2015, primarily as a result of the increased interest rates quarter-over-quarter.
Income Tax

The effective tax rate was 38.7% during both the second quarter of 2016 and 2015. The effective income tax rate varies from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to state income taxes as well as the impact of items causing permanent differences.
Net Income Available to Common Stockholders
Net income available to common stockholders was $1.8 million during the second quarter of 2016 compared to $16.5 million during the second quarter of 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of cash have been borrowings under our revolving credit facility, cash flows from operations, and proceeds from the sale of our common stock.

As of June 30, 2016, we had $7.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, $153.7 million of availability under our credit facility, and $156.8 million in working capital, net of cash of $7.8 million.
Although we can provide no assurances, amounts available under our revolving credit facility, net cash provided by operating activities, and available cash and cash equivalents should be adequate to finance working capital and planned capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Thereafter, we may find it necessary to obtain additional equity or debt financing as we continue to execute our business strategy.
Our credit facility consists of a $300.0 million term loan and a revolving credit facility up to a maximum aggregate amount of $300.0 million, of which up to $10.0 million may be used for Swing Line Loans (as defined in the credit agreement) and up to $40.0 million may be used for letters of credit. The credit facility matures on July 9, 2019.

Advances under our credit facility bear interest at either (a) the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 2.0% to 3.50%, or (b) the Base Rate (as defined in the credit agreement), plus an applicable margin in the range of 1.0% to 2.50%.
Our credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including a maximum cash flow leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. On June 17, 2016, we entered into a Consent, Waiver, and First Amendment (the "Amendment") to the credit agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, the maximum cash flow leverage ratio and minimum fixed charge coverage ratio were modified for certain future periods. As modified by the Amendment, the required maximum cash flow leverage ratio was 4.50 to 1.0 for the four quarters ended June 30, 2016 and decreases to 4.00 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending September 30, 2016, 3.75 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending December 31, 2016, 3.50 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending March 31, 2017, 3.25 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending June 30, 2017, and finally to 3.00 to 1.0 for all periods thereafter. As modified by the Amendment, the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.15 to 1.0 for the four quarters ended June 30, 2016, continues to be 1.15 to 1.0 for the four quarters ending September 30, 2016 and December 30, 2016, and finally increases to 1.25 to 1.0 for all periods thereafter. We were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the credit agreement (as modified by the Amendment) for the four quarters ended June 30, 2016. Based on our current internal financial forecasts for the second half of 2016, we expect to be in compliance with our financial covenants for the four quarters ending September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2016. However, we can provide no assurances that we will meet our internal financial forecasts, as actual results can vary from these forecasts due to a number of factors, some of which are outside of our control. See the section titled "Risk Factors" included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. If we do not meet our internal financial forecasts for the third and fourth quarters of 2016, we may not be in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our credit agreement for the four quarters ending September 30, 2016 or December 31, 2016. If we default under the terms of our credit agreement and fail to obtain appropriate amendments to or waivers under the credit agreement, our borrowings against the credit agreement could be immediately declared due and payable. If we fail to pay the amount due, the lenders could proceed against the collateral by which our loans are secured, our borrowing capacity may be limited, or the credit agreement could be terminated. If acceleration of outstanding borrowings occurs or if the credit agreement is terminated, we may have difficulty borrowing additional funds sufficient to refinance the accelerated debt or entering into new credit or debt arrangements, and, if available, the terms of the financing may not be acceptable. A default under our credit agreement could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition. See the section titled “Risk Factors - Our senior credit facility contains financial and other restrictive covenants with which we may be unable to comply. A default under these financing arrangements could cause a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. In addition, our credit agreement contains negative covenants limiting, among other things, additional indebtedness, capital expenditures, transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments, advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions, and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. Our credit agreement also contains customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, events of bankruptcy and insolvency, failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the credit agreement to be in full force and effect, and a change of control of our business.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

21


Cash provided by operating activities primarily consists of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, provision for bad debts, deferred taxes, and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.
The difference between our $4.9 million net income and the $39.8 million cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was primarily attributable to $20.4 million of depreciation and amortization, a $14.5 million increase in accounts payable, a $8.3 million decrease in our prepaid expenses and other assets, $1.1 million of share-based compensation, $1.0 million of provision for bad debts, and $0.7 million of other miscellaneous adjustments to operating activities, primarily offset by a $7.2 million decrease in accrued expenses, a $2.4 million increase in our accounts receivable, and $1.6 million of gain on disposal of buildings and equipment.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $8.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016, which reflects $13.8 million of capital expenditures used to support our operations. These capital expenditures were offset by the proceeds from the sale of buildings and equipment of $5.1 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities was $32.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016, which primarily reflects net reduction of borrowings of $27.1 million, the reduction of a capital lease obligation of $2.9 million, debt issuance costs of $0.7 million, $0.8 million of payments of contingent earnouts, and $0.5 million of other miscellaneous reductions.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we applied the same critical accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 that affect judgments and estimates of amounts recorded for certain assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses.
A decline in TL and LTL revenues due to lower freight volumes and pricing, as well as operating cost increases in both reporting units due to higher insurance claims, independent contractor termination costs, and excess capacity during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, resulted in operating performance that fell below the projections used in our interim goodwill impairment assessments performed as of September 30, 2015 for our LTL reporting unit and as of March 31, 2016 for our TL reporting unit, which indicated that the fair value exceeded the carrying value by approximately 65% and 87% for our LTL and TL reporting units, respectively. Accordingly, we are required to perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis of our TL and LTL reporting units as of June 30, 2016. Due to the significant effort that is required to determine the implied fair value of reporting units' goodwill, through assessing growth, operating margin, and discount rate assumptions, as well as the lack of updated market data, we have not completed this interim goodwill impairment analysis and will complete the analysis during the third quarter of 2016.
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Commodity Risk
In our TL, LTL, and Global Solutions businesses, our primary market risk centers on fluctuations in fuel prices, which can affect our profitability. Diesel fuel prices fluctuate significantly due to economic, political, and other factors beyond our control. Our ICs and purchased power providers pass along the cost of diesel fuel to us, and we in turn attempt to pass along some or all of these costs to our customers through fuel surcharge revenue programs. There can be no assurance that our fuel surcharge revenue programs will be effective in the future. Market pressures may limit our ability to pass along our fuel surcharges.
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to changes in interest rates on our revolving credit facility and term loan. The interest rate on our revolving credit facility and term loan fluctuate based on the prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Assuming our $300.0 million revolving credit facility was fully drawn and taking into consideration the outstanding term loan of $288.8 million as of June 30, 2016, a 1.0% increase in the borrowing rate would increase our annual interest expense by $5.9 million. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes and are not engaged in any interest rate swap agreements.
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, with reasonable assurance, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, misstatements, errors, and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been or will be prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls also can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, internal controls may become inadequate as a result of changes in conditions, or through the deterioration of the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION 
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
In the ordinary course of business, we are a defendant in several legal proceedings arising out of the conduct of our business. These proceedings include claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with our services. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these proceedings, we do not believe, based upon the information available at this time, that these property damage or personal injury claims, in the aggregate, will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We maintain liability insurance coverage for claims in excess of $500,000 per occurrence and cargo coverage for claims in excess of $100,000 per occurrence. We believe we have adequate insurance to cover losses in excess of the deductible amount. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had reserves for estimated uninsured losses of $6.4 million and $7.2 million, respectively.
In addition to the legal proceedings described above, like many others in the transportation services industry, we are a defendant in six purported class-action lawsuits in California alleging violations of various California labor laws and one purported class-action lawsuit in Illinois alleging violations of the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act. The plaintiffs in each of these lawsuits seek to recover unspecified monetary damages and other items. In addition, the California Division of Labor Standards and Enforcement has brought administrative actions against us on behalf of twelve individuals alleging that we violated California labor laws. Given the early stage of all of the proceedings described in this paragraph, we are not able to assess with certainty the outcome of these proceedings or the amount or range of potential damages or future payments associated with these proceedings at this time. We believe we have meritorious defenses to these actions and intend to defend these proceedings vigorously. However, any legal proceeding is subject to inherent uncertainties, and we cannot assure that the expenses associated with defending these actions or their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition.
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS.
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 in analyzing an investment in our common stock. If any such risks occur, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would likely suffer, the trading price of our common stock would decline, and you could lose all or part of the money you paid for our common stock. In addition, the risk factors and uncertainties could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in our forward-looking statements, whether made in this report or other documents we file with the SEC, or our annual report to stockholders, future press releases, or orally, whether in presentations, responses to questions, or otherwise.
There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described under “Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
