Strategic overview and market environment
Focus on building the most efficient transportation network in North America, leveraging five business units and prioritizing people, technology, and capacity investments.

Navigating a prolonged freight recession, with over 32,000 employees and a $12 billion revenue base, emphasizing operational control.
Key 2024 priorities: operational excellence, scaling long-term investments, and margin repair.

Productivity, efficiency, asset utilization, and technology-driven process improvements are central to cost initiatives.
No mass layoffs; headcount managed through performance and attrition, with a 15% reduction from peak.
Operating income grew 8% and EPS 18% year-over-year in Q3, despite flat revenues.
Strong balance sheet with 1x trailing EBITDA leverage, enabling pre-funded growth and continued share repurchases.
Intermodal and capacity strategy
Largest Intermodal provider in North America, owning over 125,000 containers and proprietary chassis, with plans to grow to 150,000 containers.
Pre-investment in equipment supports operational excellence and positions for future growth without significant new capital needs.
Long-term rail partnerships and a focus on converting 7–11 million annual loads from highway to Intermodal, especially in the eastern U.S.
Ongoing industry changes, including potential transcontinental rail mergers, are being monitored for competitive impact.

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.
