Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Q3 2025 earnings summary23 Oct, 2025
Executive summary
Q3 2025 saw revenue growth but compressed margins and lower earnings due to inflation, high claims, and under-utilized equipment, with asset-light units stable and Truckload underperforming.
Management remains optimistic about long-term recovery, citing regulatory changes, capacity exits, and internal initiatives as positive catalysts.
Strategic focus is on growing asset-light and dedicated segments, optimizing Truckload, and reallocating capital toward higher-return business units.
Financial highlights
Total Q3 2025 revenue was $296.9 million, up 3.1% year-over-year; freight revenue rose 4% to $268.9 million.
Adjusted operating income declined to $15 million from $19.3 million; operating income fell to $7.9 million from $16.2 million.
Net income was $9.1 million, down from $13 million; adjusted net income was $11.5 million, down from $15.2 million.
Adjusted operating ratio for Q3 2025 was 94.4%, compared to 92.5% in Q3 2024.
Net indebtedness rose by $48.7 million to $268.3 million since year-end; leverage ratio at 2.14.
Outlook and guidance
Q4 is expected to remain challenging with a soft freight market, increased claims, government shutdown impacts, and customer bankruptcies.
Modest peak season boost is possible, but negative factors are expected to outweigh positives.
Long-term outlook is positive, with expectations for improved market conditions, operating leverage, and higher returns as capacity exits accelerate.
Management is prepared to act quickly to capture market share when conditions improve.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
