Citi's Global Industrial Tech & Mobility Conference 2026 summary19 Feb, 2026

Market environment and demand outlook

  • Freight demand has been soft for over three years, with the industry in a prolonged recession and goods vs. services mix at 15-year lows.

  • Recent ISM readings and consumer confidence have shown signs of improvement, offering cautious optimism for a potential rebound.

  • Supply has tightened significantly due to regulatory changes, with tender rejections doubling despite soft demand.

  • The market is described as fragile, where any incremental demand could quickly shift the balance.

  • Q1 volume is expected to be down 5%-10% year-over-year, reflecting both tough comps and ongoing demand weakness.

Business performance and growth strategy

  • Brokerage truckload volumes are down double digits, but LTL volumes have grown, with Q4 up 31% year-over-year.

  • The late-stage sales pipeline is up more than 50% year-over-year, driven by both new and existing customers and successful Coyote integration.

  • Q1 adjusted EBITDA is projected at $5M-$12M, reflecting margin pressure from supply shocks and persistent tight market conditions.

  • Incremental gross profit from new business can yield 50%-80%+ incremental margins, offering strong operating leverage as the cycle turns.

  • Cost reductions of over $155M and technology investments are expected to drive future margin expansion.

Industry structure, consolidation, and technology

  • Regulatory changes are removing fringe capacity, favoring large, compliant brokers and accelerating industry consolidation.

  • The top nine brokers now represent about half the market, with further M&A and organic consolidation expected.

  • Brokerage penetration is projected to rise from 20% to mid/high 20% in five years, with potential to reach 40% longer term.

  • Technology and AI are seen as enablers for productivity, margin improvement, and competitive differentiation, but relationships and service remain core to the business.

  • Proprietary data, compliance, and a two-sided network are viewed as durable moats against digital disintermediation.

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.
