JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Landstar System, Inc. (NASDAQ: LSTR) (\u201cLandstar\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) today reported its financial results for the 2026 first quarter. The Company reported total revenue of $1.171 billion in the 2026 first quarter, an increase of 2% as compared to revenue of $1.153 billion in the 2025 first quarter, and basic and diluted earnings per share (\u201cEPS\u201d) of $1.16 in the 2026 first quarter, an increase of 36% as compared to EPS of $0.85 per share in the 2025 first quarter. As a reminder, EPS in the 2025 first quarter was unfavorably impacted by approximately $0.10 related to the previously disclosed supply chain fraud matter. The Company also reported a 14% increase in gross profit and a 7% increase in variable contribution (defined as revenue less the cost of purchased transportation and commissions to agents) in the 2026 first quarter, as compared in each case to the 2025 first quarter.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Landstar team of independent business owners and employees executed well in a dynamic transportation backdrop, with our network generating higher truck transportation revenues and increased BCO utilization year-over-year,\u201d said Landstar President and Chief Executive Officer Frank Lonegro. \u201cI was particularly pleased with our variable contribution performance which reflected Landstar\u2019s first year-over-year increase in variable contribution since the third quarter of 2022. We were encouraged by our improved first quarter results, attributable to a strengthening rate environment and the Company\u2019s unwavering commitment to safety, security and service.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
