FORT SMITH, Ark.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
ArcBest® (Nasdaq: ARCB), a leader in supply chain logistics, today reported fourth quarter 2024 revenue of $1.0 billion, compared to $1.1 billion in fourth quarter 2023. Net income was $29.0 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, compared to $48.8 million, or $2.01 per diluted share in the prior year. On a non-GAAP basis, fourth quarter 2024 net income was $31.2 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, compared to $60.0 million, or $2.47 per diluted share in the prior year.
ArcBest’s full year 2024 revenue totaled $4.2 billion compared to $4.4 billion in 2023. Net income from continuing operations was $173.4 million, or $7.28 per diluted share, including a $67.9 million after-tax benefit from the reduction in the fair value of contingent consideration related to a 2021 acquisition, compared to net income of $142.2 million, or $5.77 per diluted share in 2023. On a non-GAAP basis, full year 2024 net income was $149.7 million, or $6.28 per diluted share, compared to net income of $194.1 million, or $7.88 per diluted share, in 2023.
“Throughout 2024, we made significant progress on controlling costs, improving productivity, and enhancing our service quality,” said Judy R. McReynolds, ArcBest Chairman and CEO. “These achievements underscore our commitment to excellent execution and are yielding tangible results. I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our dedicated employees, whose hard work and innovation have been pivotal in reaching these milestones. Together, we are well-positioned for continued growth and success.”
Results of Operations Comparisons
Asset-Based
Fourth Quarter 2024 Versus Fourth Quarter 2023
-
Revenue of $656.2 million compared to $710.0 million, a per-day decrease of 7.6 percent
-
Total tonnage per day decrease of 7.3 percent
-
Total shipments per day decrease of 1.1 percent
-
Total billed revenue per hundredweight increase of 0.6 percent
-
Operating income of $52.3 million and an operating ratio of 92.0 percent, compared to $87.5 million and an operating ratio of 87.7 percent
The Asset-Based segment generated $35.2 million less operating income than fourth quarter 2023. Fourth quarter tonnage declines were driven by a 6.3 percent decrease in weight per shipment and a 1.1 percent decrease in daily shipments. Prolonged manufacturing sector weakness continues to negatively impact weight per shipment metrics. Productivity improvements of 2.3 percent and other cost initiatives helped mitigate the impact of the soft market environment, higher insurance costs, and higher labor cost increases related to the annual union contract rate increase, which went into effect during the third quarter of 2024.
Contract renewals and deferred pricing agreements saw an average increase of 4.5% during the quarter. Price improvements were offset by declining fuel costs. Excluding fuel surcharges, revenue per hundredweight increased in the mid-single digits, year-over-year. Overall, LTL industry pricing remains rational.
Compared sequentially to the third quarter of 2024, fourth quarter 2024 revenue per day decreased 4.5 percent. Weight per shipment improved 0.6 percent and shipments per day declined by 2.6 percent, resulting in a 2.1 percent decrease in tonnage per day. Billed revenue per hundredweight was 2.9 percent lower, impacted by the increase in weight per shipment, reduced fuel prices, and the increase of project-related business. Lower tonnage, offset in part by cost savings, resulted in the operating ratio increase of 100 basis points sequentially, which was on the lower end of the historical seasonality range of a 100 to 200 basis point increase.
Asset-Light
Fourth Quarter 2024 Versus Fourth Quarter 2023
-
Revenue of $375.4 million compared to $413.4 million, a per-day decrease of 9.2 percent
-
Operating loss of $1.6 million, compared to operating loss of $7.7 million
-
On a non‑GAAP basis, operating loss of $5.9 million compared to operating loss of $1.3 million
-
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), as defined in the attached non-GAAP reconciliation tables, of negative $4.2 million compared to $0.7 million
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, Asset-Light revenues were impacted by lower revenue per shipment associated with the soft rate environment and a higher mix of managed transportation business, which has smaller shipment sizes and lower revenue per shipment metrics. Shipments per day were lower by 2.1 percent. The segment continues to benefit from productivity initiatives, as shipments per employee per day improved 20.8 percent, on a year-over-year basis, but the soft freight environment and excess truckload capacity continue to impact results.
Compared sequentially to third quarter 2024, fourth quarter 2024 shipments per day were down 1.4 percent, yet daily revenue was up by 0.6 percent as revenue per shipment increased 2.0 percent. Shipments per employee per day, improved by 5.8 percent, but purchased transportation costs as a percentage of revenue, increased and compressed margins. The $2.0 million sequential increase in non-GAAP operating loss was due primarily to the current truckload brokerage pricing environment.

Share Repurchase and Quarterly Dividend Programs

As of January 29, 2025, ArcBest had $48.7 million of repurchase authorization remaining under the current stock repurchase program.

ARCBEST CORPORATION
RECONCILIATIONS OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios utilized for internal analysis provide analysts, investors, and others the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our core operating performance and provides meaningful comparisons between current and prior period results, as well as important information regarding performance trends. Accordingly, non-GAAP results are presented on a continuing operations basis, excluding the discontinued operations of FleetNet, which sold on February 28, 2023. The use of certain non-GAAP measures improves comparability in analyzing our performance because it removes the impact of items from operating results that, in management’s opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently; therefore, our calculation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Certain information discussed in the scheduled conference call could be considered non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results. These financial measures should not be construed as better measurements than operating income, net income or earnings per share, as determined under GAAP.

ARCBEST CORPORATION
RECONCILIATIONS OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES – Continued
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA)
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a key measure of performance and for business planning. The measure is particularly meaningful for analysis of operating performance because it excludes amortization of acquired intangibles and software of the Asset-Light segment, changes in the fair values of contingent consideration and equity investment, and asset impairment charges, which are significant expenses or gains resulting from strategic decisions or other factors rather than core daily operations. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a primary component of the financial covenants contained in our credit agreement. The calculation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as presented below begins with net income from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The calculation of Asset-Light Adjusted EBITDA as presented below begins with operating income (loss), as other income (costs), income taxes, and net income from continuing operations are reported at the consolidated level and not included in the operating segment financial information evaluated by management to make operating decisions.

RECONCILIATIONS OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES – Continued
|
| |
|
Notes to Non-GAAP Financial Tables
|
| |
|
The following footnotes apply to the non-GAAP financial tables presented in this press release.
|
|
|
|
1)
|
Represents costs related to our customer pilot offering of Vaux and initiatives to optimize our performance through technological innovation. The 2023 period also includes costs associated with the freight handling pilot test program at ABF Freight, for which the decision was made to pause the pilot during third quarter 2023.
|
|
2)
|
Represents the amortization of acquired intangible assets in the Asset-Light segment.
|
|
3)
|
Represents change in fair value of the contingent earnout consideration recorded for the MoLo acquisition, as previously described in the footnotes to the Financial Statement Operating Segment Data and Operating Ratios table. As of December 31, 2024, the decrease in fair value reflects the reduction in payout assumptions projected for the earnout in 2025, due to the continued soft truckload environment and the latest industry expectations for a truckload market recovery being pushed further into 2025 than previously estimated.
|
|
4)
|
The 2024 periods represent noncash asset impairment charges for certain revenue equipment and software recognized during fourth quarter 2024 as part of a strategic decision to adjust capacity within Asset-Light’s operations. The 2023 period represents noncash lease-related impairment charges for a freight handling pilot facility reported in “Other”, an Asset‑Based service center, and Asset-Light office spaces that were made available for sublease.
|
|
5)
|
Represents settlement expenses related to the classification of certain Asset-Light employees under the FairLabor Standards Act, which were paid during first quarter 2025.
|
|
6)
|
For the year ended December 31, 2024, represents a noncash impairment charge to write off an equity investment in Phantom Auto, a provider of human-centered remote operation software, which ceased operations during first quarter 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2023, represents the increase in fair value of an investment in Phantom Auto based on observable price changes during second quarter 2023.
|
|
7)
|
Represents recognition of the tax impact for the vesting of share-based compensation.
|
|
8)
|
Non-GAAP amounts are calculated in total and may not equal the sum of GAAP amounts and non-GAAP adjustments due to rounding.
|
|
9)
|
Represents costs associated with the freight handling pilot test program at ABF Freight, for which the decision was made to pause the pilot during third quarter 2023.
|
|
10)
|
Tax rate for total “Amounts on GAAP basis” represents the effective tax rate. The tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated based on the statutory rate applicable to each item based on tax jurisdiction unless the nature of the item requires the tax effect to be estimated by applying a specific tax treatment.
|
|
11)
|
Includes amortization of intangibles associated with acquired businesses.
