Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

XPO, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“XPO,” “we” or the “Company”), is a leading provider of freight transportation services. We use our proprietary technology to move goods efficiently through our customers’ supply chains in North America and Europe. See Note 2—Segment Reporting for additional information on our operations.

Strategic Developments

In December 2023, we acquired 28 LTL service centers in the U.S. previously operated by Yellow Corporation. In connection with this transaction, we purchased 26 of the service centers and assumed existing leases for the other two locations. This strategic acquisition of assets aligns with our commitment to invest in expanding our LTL network capacity.

Our Board of Directors has previously authorized the divestiture of our European business. There can be no assurance that the divestiture will occur, or of the terms or timing of a transaction.

Basis of Presentation

We prepared our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and on the same basis as the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”). The interim reporting requirements of Form 10-Q allow certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements to be condensed or omitted. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the 2023 Form 10-K.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not audited but reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition, operating results and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

The historical results of operations and financial positions of RXO, Inc., GXO Logistics, Inc. and our intermodal operation are presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented.

Within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and associated notes, certain amounts may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions.

Restricted Cash

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our restricted cash included in Other long-term assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $7 million.

Trade Receivables Securitization and Factoring Programs

We sell certain of our trade accounts receivable on a non-recourse basis to third-party financial institutions under factoring agreements. We also sell trade accounts receivable under a securitization program for our European transportation business. We use trade receivables securitization and factoring programs to help manage our cash flows and offset the impact of extended payment terms for some of our customers.

The maximum amount of net cash proceeds available at any one time under our securitization program, inclusive of any unsecured borrowings, is €200 million (approximately $216 million as of March 31, 2024). As of March 31, 2024, the maximum amount available under the program was utilized. The weighted average interest rate was 5.41% as of March 31, 2024. The program expires in July 2026.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The levels of inputs used to measure fair value are:

•Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

•Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and

•Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, generally utilizing pricing models or other valuation techniques that reflect management’s judgment and estimates.

We base our fair value estimates on market assumptions and available information. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current maturities of long-term debt approximated their fair values as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 due to their short-term nature and/or being receivable or payable on demand. The Level 1 cash equivalents include money market funds valued using quoted prices in active markets and a cash deposit for the securitization program. For information on the fair value hierarchy of our derivative instruments, see Note 5—Derivative Instruments and for information on financial liabilities, see Note 6—Debt.

The fair value hierarchy of cash equivalents was as follows:


(In millions)	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Level 1
March 31, 2024	$	186	$	186	$	186
December 31, 2023	369		369		369

Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Effective

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The ASU modifies income tax disclosures by requiring (i) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliations and (ii) the disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction, among other requirements. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning in 2025, and should be applied on a prospective basis, with the option to apply retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, which is limited to financial statement disclosures.

Table of Contents

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The amendments in the ASU increase reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit and loss, and provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, among other disclosure requirements. This ASU is effective on a retrospective basis for annual periods beginning in 2024, and for interim periods beginning January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, which is limited to financial statement disclosures.

2. Segment Reporting

We are organized into two reportable segments: North American Less-Than-Truckload (“LTL”), the largest component of our business, and European Transportation.

In our North American LTL segment, we provide shippers with geographic density and day-definite domestic and cross-border services to the U.S., as well as Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean. Our North American LTL segment also includes the results of our trailer manufacturing operations.

In our European Transportation segment, we serve an extensive base of customers within the consumer, trade and industrial markets. We offer dedicated truckload, LTL, truck brokerage, managed transportation, last mile, freight forwarding and multimodal solutions, such as road-rail and road-short sea combinations.

Corporate includes corporate headquarters costs for executive officers and certain legal and financial functions, and other costs and credits not attributed to our reportable segments.

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews financial information at the operating segment level to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. We include items directly attributable to a segment, and those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis, in segment results reported to the CODM. We do not provide asset information by segment to the CODM. Our CODM evaluates segment profit (loss) based on adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which we define as income from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax, depreciation and amortization expense, transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other adjustments. Segment Adjusted EBITDA includes an allocation of corporate costs.

4. Restructuring Charges

We engage in restructuring actions as part of our ongoing efforts to best use our resources and infrastructure. These actions generally include severance and facility-related costs, including impairment of lease assets, as well as contract termination costs, and are intended to improve our efficiency and profitability.

Our restructuring-related activity was as follows:


			Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
(In millions)	Reserve Balance as of December 31, 2023		Charges Incurred		Payments		Reserve Balance as of March 31, 2024
Severance
North American LTL	$	2	$	—	$	(1)	$	1
European Transportation	1		8		(4)		5
Corporate	8		—		(3)		5









Total	$	11	$	8	$	(8)	$	11

We expect that the majority of the cash outlays related to the severance charges incurred in the first three months of 2024 will be completed within 12 months.

5. Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to risks arising from business operations and economic factors, including fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currencies. We use derivative instruments to manage the volatility related to these exposures. The objective of these derivative instruments is to reduce fluctuations in our earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. These financial instruments are not used for trading or other speculative purposes. Historically, we have not incurred, and do not expect to incur in the future, any losses as a result of counterparty default.

The fair value of our derivative instruments and the related notional amounts were as follows:


	March 31, 2024
			Derivative Assets			Derivative Liabilities
(In millions)	Notional Amount		Balance Sheet Caption	Fair Value		Balance Sheet Caption	Fair Value
Derivatives designated as hedges
Cross-currency swap agreements	$	249	Other current assets	$	—	Other current liabilities	$	(9)

Interest rate swaps	350		Other current assets	—		Other current liabilities	(2)
Interest rate swaps	200		Other long-term assets	—		Other long-term liabilities	—
Total				$	—		$	(36)

The derivatives are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The derivatives are valued using inputs other than quoted prices, such as foreign exchange rates and yield curves.

The effect of derivative and nonderivative instruments designated as hedges on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income was as follows:


	Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on Derivatives				Amount of Gain Recognized in Income on Derivative (Amount Excluded from Effectiveness Testing)
	Three Months Ended March 31,

Table of Contents

Cross-Currency Swap Agreements

We enter into cross-currency swap agreements to manage the foreign currency exchange risk related to our international operations by effectively converting our fixed-rate USD-denominated debt, including the associated interest payments, to fixed-rate, euro (“EUR”)-denominated debt. The risk management objective of these transactions is to manage foreign currency risk relating to net investments in subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies and reduce the variability in the functional currency equivalent cash flows of this debt.

During the term of the swap contracts, we will receive interest on a quarterly basis from the counterparties based on USD fixed interest rates, and we will pay interest, also on a quarterly basis, to the counterparties based on EUR fixed interest rates. At maturity, we will repay the original principal amount in EUR and receive the principal amount in USD. These agreements expire at various dates through 2027.

We designated these cross-currency swaps as qualifying hedging instruments and account for them as net investment hedges. We apply the simplified method of assessing the effectiveness of our net investment hedging relationships. Under this method, for each reporting period, the change in the fair value of the cross-currency swaps is initially recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). The change in the fair value due to foreign exchange remains in AOCI and the initial component excluded from effectiveness testing will initially remain in AOCI and then will be reclassified from AOCI to Interest expense each period in a systematic manner. Cash flows related to the periodic exchange of interest payments for these net investment hedges are included in Cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Interest Rate Hedging

We execute short-term interest rate swaps to mitigate variability in forecasted interest payments on our Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). The interest rate swaps convert floating-rate interest payments into fixed rate interest payments. We designated the interest rate swaps as qualifying hedging instruments and account for these derivatives as cash flow hedges. The outstanding interest rate swaps mature on various dates in 2024 and 2025.

We record gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments to the designated portion of interest rate swaps in AOCI and reclassify them to Interest expense on the dates that interest payments accrue. Cash flows related to the interest rate swaps are included in Cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

We are involved, and expect to continue to be involved, in numerous proceedings arising out of the conduct of our business. These proceedings may include claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with the transportation of freight, environmental liability, commercial disputes, insurance coverage disputes and employment-related claims, including claims involving asserted breaches of employee restrictive covenants.

We establish accruals for specific legal proceedings when it is considered probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We review and adjust accruals for loss contingencies quarterly and as additional information becomes available. If a loss is not both probable and reasonably estimable, or if an exposure to loss exists in excess of the amount accrued, we assess whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred. If there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred, we disclose the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss if it is material and an estimate can be made, or disclose that such an estimate cannot be made. The determination as to whether a loss can reasonably be considered to be possible or probable is based on our assessment, together with legal counsel, regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter.

We believe that we have adequately accrued for the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any matters to which we are presently a party will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Legal costs incurred related to these matters are expensed as incurred.

We carry liability and excess umbrella insurance policies that we deem sufficient to cover potential legal claims arising in the normal course of conducting our operations as a transportation company. In the event we are required to satisfy a legal claim outside the scope of the coverage provided by insurance, our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be negatively impacted.

Insurance Contribution Litigation

In April 2012, Allianz Global Risks US Insurance Company sued eighteen insurance companies in a case captioned Allianz Global Risks US Ins. Co. v. ACE Property & Casualty Ins. Co., et al., Multnomah County Circuit Court (Case No. 1204-04552). Allianz Global Risks US Ins. Co. (“Allianz”) sought contribution on environmental and product liability claims that Allianz agreed to defend and indemnify on behalf of its insured, Daimler Trucks North America (“DTNA”). Defendants had insured Freightliner’s assets, which DTNA acquired in 1981. Con-way, Freightliner’s former parent company, intervened. We acquired Con-way in 2015. Con-way and Freightliner had self-insured under fronting agreements with defendant insurers ACE, Westport, and General. Under those agreements, Con-way agreed to indemnify the fronting carriers for damages assessed under the fronting policies. Con-way’s captive insurer, Centron, was also a named defendant. After a seven-week jury trial in 2014, the jury found that Con-way and the fronting insurers never intended that the insurers defend or indemnify any claims against Freightliner. In June 2015, Allianz appealed to the Oregon Court of Appeals. In May 2019, the Oregon Court of Appeals upheld the jury verdict. In September 2019, Allianz appealed to the Oregon Supreme Court. In March 2021, the Oregon Supreme Court reversed the jury verdict, holding that it was an error to allow the jury to decide how the parties intended the fronting policies to operate, and also holding that the trial court improperly instructed the jury concerning one of the pollution exclusions at issue. In July 2021, the matter was remanded to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with the Oregon Supreme Court’s decision. In June 2023, the trial court decided the parties’ cross-motions for summary judgment, leaving open the pollution exclusion and allocation issues. The trial on the pollution exclusion issue is scheduled to take place in the fall of 2024, and the trial on allocation of defense costs among the applicable insurance policies is to take place in early 2025. We have accrued an immaterial amount for the potential exposure associated with ultimate allocation to the relevant policies; however, any losses that may arise in connection with the fronting policies issued by defendant insurers ACE, Westport, and General are not reasonably estimable at this time.

California Environmental Matters

In August 2022, the Company received a letter from the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office (the “County”), written in cooperation with certain other California District Attorneys and the Los Angeles City Attorney, notifying the Company of an investigation into alleged violations with respect to underground storage tanks, hazardous materials, and hazardous waste in California, and offering a meeting. Following meetings between the Company and County attorneys and the Los Angeles City Attorney and an assessment of the allegations and the underlying facts, the Company engaged in negotiations with the County and Los Angeles City Attorneys to address settlement of the alleged violations. The Company previously accrued for this matter, and it was resolved for $7.9 million in April 2024.

Executive Summary

XPO, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“XPO,” “we” or the “Company”), is a leading provider of freight transportation services, with company-specific avenues for value creation. We use our proprietary technology to move goods efficiently through our customers’ supply chains in North America and Europe. As of March 31, 2024, we had approximately 39,000 employees and 610 locations in 17 countries serving approximately 52,000 customers.

Our company has two reportable segments: North American Less-Than-Truckload (“LTL”), the largest component of our business, and European Transportation. Our North American LTL segment includes the results of our trailer manufacturing operations.

Within the tables presented, certain amounts may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions.

North American LTL Segment

LTL in North America is a bedrock industry providing a critical service to the economy, with favorable pricing dynamics and an established competitive landscape. XPO is one of the largest LTL networks in North America, with approximately 9% share of the U.S. market, estimated to be $52 billion as of December 31, 2023.

Table of Contents

We provide approximately 33,000 shippers in North America with critical geographic density and day-definite domestic and cross-border services to approximately 99% of U.S. zip codes, as well as Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean. Our capacity and reach give us the ability to manage large freight volumes efficiently and balance our network to leverage fixed costs. For the trailing 12 months ended March 31, 2024, our customer-focused organization of truck drivers, service center teams and sales professionals worked together to move approximately 18 billion pounds of freight through our network to its destinations.

Importantly, our LTL business historically has generated a high return on invested capital and robust free cash flow. This supports our ongoing investments in our people, network capacity and proprietary technology. We manage the business to specific objectives, such as high customer service scores for on-time delivery and damage-free freight, the optimal sourcing of linehaul transportation, and the expansion of our service center footprint in strategic markets with long-term demand. Since implementing our LTL 2.0 growth plan in the fourth quarter of 2021, we have added over 4,000 tractors and 12,300 trailers.

In 2023, we produced over 6,400 trailers at our in-house trailer manufacturing facility, surpassing our goal of more than 6,000 trailers. Our in-house trailer manufacturing is an example of a self-reliant capability that is competitively advantageous to us, particularly when industry conditions make it difficult to source equipment.

In December 2023, we completed the acquisition of 28 service centers previously operated by Yellow Corporation (the “Yellow Asset Acquisition”), representing approximately 2,900 doors. We expect the net increase in service centers and doors to be less than the gross number purchased as we look for opportunities to rationalize our existing footprint. This strategic acquisition of assets aligns with our commitment to invest in expanding our LTL network capacity.

As a leading provider of freight transportation services, our business can be impacted to varying degrees by factors beyond our control. In 2024, the overall freight environment continues to be recessionary, in large part due to underlying trends in supply and demand. Despite this, we continue to perform well and see growth potential ahead as we continue to expand our business by investing in capacity for the long-term, gaining profitable market share and aligning price with the value we provide to customers.

Specific to our technology, we believe that we have a large opportunity to drive further growth and profitability in our LTL network through innovation. For more information, see “Technology” below.

European Transportation Segment

XPO has a unique pan-European transportation platform with leading positions in key geographies: We are the #1 full truckload broker and the #1 pallet network (LTL) provider in France; the #1 full truckload broker and the #1 LTL provider in Iberia (Spain and Portugal); and a top-tier dedicated truckload provider in the U.K., where we also have the largest single-owner LTL network. We serve an extensive base of customers within the consumer, trade and industrial markets, including many sector leaders that have long-tenured relationships with us.

Our range of freight services in Europe encompasses dedicated truckload, LTL, truck brokerage, managed transportation, last mile, freight forwarding and, increasingly, multimodal solutions, such as road-rail and road-short sea combinations that we tailor to customer needs. Our operators use our proprietary technology to manage these services within our digital ecosystem in Europe.

Technology

One of the ways in which we deliver superior service to our customers is by empowering our employees with technology. Our industry is evolving, and customers want to de-risk their supply chains by forming relationships with reliable service providers that have invested in innovation.

We have built a highly scalable ecosystem on the cloud that deploys our software consistently across our operating footprint. In our North American LTL business, the caliber of our technology is mission-critical to our success; it optimizes linehaul, pickup-and-delivery and pricing — the main components of the service we provide. An LTL network of our scale has hundreds of thousands of activities underway at any given time, all managed on our technology. For the trailing 12 months ended March 31, 2024, we moved approximately 18 billion pounds of freight 813 million miles, including moving linehaul freight an average of 2.6 million miles a day.

Table of Contents

With intelligent route-building, we can reduce empty miles in our linehaul network, improve load factor and mitigate cargo damage. Our proprietary bypass models make recommendations to enhance trailer utilization, assimilating massive amounts of data and taking volume, density, and freight dimensions into account. We use our real-time visualization tools to reduce costs with pickups and deliveries and developed a robust pricing platform for contractual account management and automated, dynamic pricing for local accounts.

Importantly, our technology also helps our company meet its environmental goals and can help our customers meet their own goals. For a detailed discussion of our philosophy relating to innovation and environmental matters, refer to “Business” in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

Our consolidated revenue for the first quarter of 2024 increased 5.8% to $2.0 billion, compared with the same period in 2023. The increase in revenue in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 primarily reflects growth in our North American LTL segment. Foreign currency movement increased revenue by approximately 1.0 percentage point in the first quarter of 2024.

Salaries, wages and employee benefits includes compensation-related costs for our employees, including salaries, wages, incentive compensation, healthcare-related costs and payroll taxes, and covers drivers and dockworkers, operations and facility workers and employees in support roles and other positions. Salaries, wages and employee benefits for the first quarter of 2024 was $834 million, or 41.3% of revenue, compared with $762 million, or 40.0% of revenue, for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase as a percentage of revenue primarily reflects the impact of inflation on our cost base, the insourcing of a greater proportion of linehaul from third-party transportation providers, and higher incentive compensation related to our operating performance. The increase in salaries, wages and employee benefits also reflects higher volumes in both of our segments.

Table of Contents

Purchased transportation includes costs of procuring third-party freight transportation. Purchased transportation for the first quarter of 2024 was $438 million, or 21.7% of revenue, compared with $457 million, or 24.0% of revenue, for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year decrease as a percentage of revenue primarily reflects the insourcing of a greater proportion of linehaul from third-party transportation providers and lower rates paid to third-party providers for purchased transportation miles.

Fuel, operating expenses and supplies includes the cost of fuel purchased for use in our vehicles as well as related taxes, maintenance and lease costs for our equipment, including tractors and trailers, costs related to operating our owned and leased facilities, bad debt expense, third-party professional fees, information technology expenses and supplies expense. Fuel, operating expenses and supplies for the first quarter of 2024 was $413 million, or 20.5% of revenue, compared with $427 million, or 22.4% of revenue, for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year decrease primarily reflects lower fuel costs and lower bad debt expense.

Operating taxes and licenses includes tax expenses related to our vehicles and our owned and leased facilities as well as license expenses to operate our vehicles. Operating taxes and licenses for the first quarter of 2024 was $19 million, compared with $15 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase primarily reflects property taxes on newly acquired service centers and lower tax incentives in Illinois.

Insurance and claims includes costs related to vehicular and cargo claims for both purchased insurance and self-insurance programs. Insurance and claims for the first quarter of 2024 was $38 million, compared with $44 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year decrease reflects lower expense due to improved operating performance related to damaged shipments, partially offset by higher vehicular claims.

Gains on sales of property and equipment for the first quarter of 2024 was $2 million, compared with $3 million for the same period in 2023.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the first quarter of 2024 was $117 million, compared with $101 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase reflects the impact of capital investments, in particular tractors and trailers.

Transaction and integration costs for the first quarter of 2024 were $14 million, compared with $22 million for the same period in 2023. Transaction and integration costs for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 are primarily comprised of stock-based compensation for certain employees related to strategic initiatives. We expect stock-based compensation costs related to our previously announced strategic initiatives to conclude in 2024.

Restructuring costs for the first quarter of 2024 were $8 million, compared with $24 million for the same period in 2023. We engage in restructuring actions as part of our ongoing efforts to best use our resources and infrastructure. For more information, see Note 4—Restructuring Charges to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other income for the first quarter of 2024 was $10 million, compared with $5 million for the same period in 2023. The year-over-year increase reflects $3 million in investment income and a $2 million increase in net periodic pension income.

Interest expense increased to $58 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared with $42 million for the same period of 2023. The increase is primarily due to the debt issuance in the fourth quarter of 2023 to finance the Yellow Asset Acquisition and higher prevailing interest rates in 2024.

Our effective income tax rates were 25.2% and 18.3% for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rates for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 were based on forecasted full-year effective tax rates, adjusted for discrete items that occurred within the periods presented. The increase in our effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily driven by higher pre-tax book income which reduced the impact of discrete tax items. In the first quarter of 2024, the effective tax rate was impacted by losses for which no tax benefit can be recognized and forecasted non-deductible executive compensation expense, partially offset by a discrete tax benefit of $5 million from stock-based compensation. In the first quarter of 2023, the effective tax rate was impacted by $2 million of discrete tax benefits from revaluing deferred state taxes, partially offset by forecasted non-deductible executive compensation expense.

Segment Financial Results

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews financial information at the operating segment level to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. Our CODM evaluates segment profit (loss) based on adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which we define as income from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax, depreciation and amortization expense, transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other adjustments. Segment Adjusted EBITDA includes an allocation of corporate costs. See Note 2—Segment Reporting to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Income from continuing operations.

North American Less-Than-Truckload Segment


	Three Months Ended March 31,	Percent of Revenue				Change
(Dollars in millions)		2024		2023		2024		2023		2024 vs. 2023
Revenue		$	1,221	$	1,120	100.0	%	100.0	%	9.0	%
Adjusted EBITDA		255		182		20.9	%	16.3	%	40.1	%
Depreciation and amortization		82		68		6.7	%	6.1	%	20.6	%

Revenue in our North American LTL segment increased 9.0% to $1.2 billion for the first quarter of 2024, compared with $1.1 billion for the same period in 2023. Revenue included fuel surcharge revenue of $210 million and $217 million, respectively, for the first quarters of 2024 and 2023. The decrease in fuel surcharge revenue was primarily driven by lower diesel prices.

We evaluate the revenue performance of our LTL business using several commonly used metrics, including volume (weight per day in pounds) and yield, which is a commonly used measure of LTL pricing trends. We measure yield using gross revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges. Impacts on yield can include weight per shipment and length of haul, among other factors, while impacts on volume can include shipments per day and weight per shipment. The following table summarizes our key revenue metrics:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2024		2023		Change %
Pounds per day (thousands)		70,709		68,889		2.6	%

Shipments per day		51,392		49,107		4.7	%

Average weight per shipment (in pounds)		1,376		1,403		(1.9)	%





Gross revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges		$	23.13	$	21.06	9.8	%

The year-over-year increase in revenue, excluding fuel surcharge revenue, in the first quarter of 2024 reflects higher volume and gross revenue per hundredweight, primarily related to our improvements in service quality and investments in capacity. The increase in volume per day for the first quarter of 2024 reflects higher shipments per day, partially offset by lower average weight per shipment. The increase in yield in the first quarter of 2024 reflects the benefit of numerous pricing initiatives.

In the month of April 2024 weight per day increased 3.1%, as compared with April 2023, attributable to a year-over-year increase of 4.7% in shipments per day and a decrease of 1.5% in weight per shipment. These April 2024 operating metrics are preliminary and actual results may vary.

Adjusted EBITDA was $255 million, or 20.9% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2024, compared with $182 million, or 16.3% of revenue, for the same period in 2023. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue reflects higher revenue, excluding fuel surcharge revenue, driven by the pricing and volume dynamics explained above, lower purchased transportation, lower bad debt expense, and lower damage claims. These items were partially offset by higher salaries, wages and employee benefits and lower fuel surcharge revenue.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $82 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared with $68 million for the same period in 2023. The increase was due to the impact of capital investments, in particular tractors and trailers.

Revenue in our European Transportation segment increased 1.3% to $797 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared with $787 million for the same period in 2023. Foreign currency movement increased revenue by approximately 2.5 percentage points in the first quarter of 2024. Revenue was essentially flat during the first quarter of 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, after taking into effect the impact of foreign currency movement.

Adjusted EBITDA was $38 million, or 4.8% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2024, compared with $37 million, or 4.7% of revenue, for the same period in 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents balance was $229 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $412 million as of December 31, 2023. Our principal existing sources of cash are: (i) cash generated from operations; (ii) borrowings available under our Second Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Credit Agreement, as amended (the “ABL Facility”); and (iii) proceeds from the issuance of other debt. As of March 31, 2024, we have $564 million available to draw under our ABL Facility, based on a borrowing base of $565 million and outstanding letters of credit of less than $1 million.
