XPO reported its Q1 2025 financial results, showing mixed performance amid challenging market conditions. The company's diluted earnings per share increased to $0.58 from $0.56 year-over-year, while adjusted diluted EPS decreased to $0.73 from $0.81.

Total revenue declined 3.2% to $1.95 billion, primarily due to lower fuel surcharge revenue in North American LTL operations. Despite this, operating income improved 9.4% to $151 million. The North American LTL segment demonstrated strong yield growth of 6.9% excluding fuel, though shipments per day decreased 5.8%.

CEO Mario Harik highlighted a sequential improvement in adjusted operating ratio to 85.9% and a cumulative improvement of 370 basis points over two years in a soft freight environment. The company maintained strong liquidity with $212 million in cash after $191 million in net capital expenditures, while generating $142 million in operating cash flow.

XPO ha comunicato i risultati finanziari del primo trimestre 2025, evidenziando una performance mista in un contesto di mercato difficile. L'utile diluito per azione è aumentato a 0,58 $ da 0,56 $ rispetto all'anno precedente, mentre l'utile diluito rettificato per azione è diminuito a 0,73 $ da 0,81 $.

I ricavi totali sono calati del 3,2% a 1,95 miliardi di dollari, principalmente a causa della riduzione dei ricavi da sovrapprezzo carburante nelle operazioni LTL nordamericane. Nonostante ciò, l'utile operativo è migliorato del 9,4% raggiungendo 151 milioni di dollari. Il segmento LTL nordamericano ha mostrato una forte crescita del rendimento del 6,9% escludendo il carburante, anche se le spedizioni giornaliere sono diminuite del 5,8%.

Il CEO Mario Harik ha sottolineato un miglioramento sequenziale del rapporto operativo rettificato al 85,9% e un miglioramento cumulativo di 370 punti base in due anni in un ambiente di trasporto merci debole. L'azienda ha mantenuto una solida liquidità con 212 milioni di dollari in contanti dopo 191 milioni di dollari di spese in conto capitale nette, generando inoltre 142 milioni di dollari di flusso di cassa operativo.

XPO presentó sus resultados financieros del primer trimestre de 2025, mostrando un desempeño mixto en medio de condiciones de mercado desafiantes. Las ganancias diluidas por acción aumentaron a $0.58 desde $0.56 interanual, mientras que las ganancias diluidas ajustadas por acción disminuyeron a $0.73 desde $0.81.

Los ingresos totales disminuyeron un 3.2% hasta $1.95 mil millones, principalmente debido a menores ingresos por recargos de combustible en las operaciones LTL de Norteamérica. A pesar de esto, el ingreso operativo mejoró un 9.4% hasta $151 millones. El segmento LTL de Norteamérica mostró un fuerte crecimiento del rendimiento del 6.9% excluyendo el combustible, aunque los envíos diarios disminuyeron un 5.8%.

El CEO Mario Harik destacó una mejora secuencial en la relación operativa ajustada al 85.9% y una mejora acumulada de 370 puntos básicos en dos años en un entorno de transporte de carga débil. La compañía mantuvo una sólida liquidez con $212 millones en efectivo después de $191 millones en gastos netos de capital, generando además $142 millones en flujo de caja operativo.

Le chiffre d'affaires total a diminué de 3,2 % pour atteindre 1,95 milliard de dollars, principalement en raison d'une baisse des revenus liés aux surtaxes carburant dans les opérations LTL nord-américaines. Malgré cela, le résultat d'exploitation a progressé de 9,4 % pour atteindre 151 millions de dollars. Le segment LTL nord-américain a affiché une forte croissance du rendement de 6,9 % hors carburant, bien que les expéditions quotidiennes aient diminué de 5,8 %.

Le PDG Mario Harik a souligné une amélioration séquentielle du ratio d'exploitation ajusté à 85,9 % et une amélioration cumulative de 370 points de base sur deux ans dans un environnement de fret faible. L'entreprise a maintenu une forte liquidité avec 212 millions de dollars en liquidités après 191 millions de dollars de dépenses nettes en immobilisations, tout en générant 142 millions de dollars de flux de trésorerie d'exploitation.

XPO veröffentlichte seine Finanzergebnisse für das erste Quartal 2025 und zeigte eine gemischte Leistung angesichts herausfordernder Marktbedingungen. Der verwässerte Gewinn je Aktie stieg von 0,56 $ auf 0,58 $ im Jahresvergleich, während der bereinigte verwässerte Gewinn je Aktie von 0,81 $ auf 0,73 $ sank.

Der Gesamtumsatz sank um 3,2 % auf 1,95 Milliarden US-Dollar, hauptsächlich aufgrund geringerer Kraftstoffzuschlagserlöse im nordamerikanischen LTL-Geschäft. Trotz dessen verbesserte sich das Betriebsergebnis um 9,4 % auf 151 Millionen US-Dollar. Das nordamerikanische LTL-Segment zeigte ein starkes Ertragswachstum von 6,9 % ohne Berücksichtigung des Kraftstoffs, obwohl die täglichen Sendungen um 5,8 % zurückgingen.

CEO Mario Harik hob eine sequenzielle Verbesserung des bereinigten Betriebsverhältnisses auf 85,9 % hervor sowie eine kumulative Verbesserung von 370 Basispunkten über zwei Jahre in einem schwachen Frachtumfeld. Das Unternehmen hielt eine starke Liquidität mit 212 Millionen US-Dollar in bar nach 191 Millionen US-Dollar an Nettoinvestitionen und generierte 142 Millionen US-Dollar an operativem Cashflow.

Insights

XPO delivers mixed Q1 results with improved operating income (+9.4%) despite revenue decline (-3.2%), maintaining profitability through operational efficiencies in challenging freight environment.

XPO's Q1 2025 financial performance presents a mixed picture with some operational bright spots amid overall revenue pressure. Revenue declined 3.2% to $1.95 billion, primarily due to lower fuel surcharge revenue in their North American LTL segment. Despite this top-line pressure, the company improved operating income by 9.4% to $151 million, demonstrating effectiveness in cost management.

The earnings metrics show divergent trends. Diluted EPS increased slightly to $0.58 from $0.56 year-over-year, while adjusted diluted EPS decreased to $0.73 from $0.81. This 9.9% decline in adjusted EPS suggests underlying profitability challenges despite headline EPS growth.

Looking at segment performance, North American LTL showed significant efficiency gains with an adjusted operating ratio of 85.9% - a sequential improvement of 30 basis points from Q4 2024 and a cumulative improvement of 370 basis points over two years. This metric is particularly important as it demonstrates margin enhancement despite volume pressures, with shipments down 5.8% and tonnage down 7.5%.

The company maintained strong cash generation with $142 million from operating activities while investing $191 million in net capital expenditures, ending the quarter with $212 million cash on hand. This balanced approach to reinvestment while maintaining liquidity positions XPO well to continue its operational improvement strategy regardless of freight market conditions.

XPO outperforms soft freight market through strategic yield growth (+6.9%) and operational efficiencies, reducing purchased transportation costs by 53% while improving service quality.

XPO's Q1 results demonstrate remarkable operational execution in a challenging freight environment. The company's 6.9% yield growth (excluding fuel) in North American LTL stands out as a strong achievement, marking nine consecutive quarters of revenue-per-shipment improvement. This pricing discipline is particularly valuable during industry volume contractions, showing XPO's strengthening market position and service value proposition.

The 370 basis point cumulative improvement in adjusted operating ratio over two years during a soft freight market is exceptional. For context, operating ratio is the most critical efficiency metric in LTL transportation, directly reflecting operational profitability. XPO's improvement here demonstrates successful execution of its optimization strategy.

Most impressive is the 53% year-over-year reduction in purchased transportation expense. This dramatic decrease reflects successful implementation of their linehaul insourcing initiative, which simultaneously improves cost structure and service quality by bringing more shipments under direct operational control.

The European Transportation segment's transition from a $4 million operating loss to a $1 million profit shows initial success in restructuring efforts, though adjusted EBITDA declined from $38 million to $32 million, indicating ongoing challenges in that market.

XPO's focus on "tech-driven labor productivity" aligns with industry best practices as digital transformation becomes increasingly critical to logistics efficiency. Their balanced approach of enhancing yield while improving operational metrics positions them well regardless of when broader freight market conditions improve.

Mario Harik, chief executive officer of XPO, said, “We carried our momentum into 2025 and delivered first quarter financial results that outperformed the industry. Companywide, we reported adjusted EBITDA of $278 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.73, while operating more efficiently.

“In North American LTL, we reported a sequential improvement in adjusted operating ratio to 85.9%, which outpaced seasonality. This brings our cumulative improvement in adjusted operating ratio to 370 basis points over two years in a soft freight environment. We accelerated first quarter yield growth, excluding fuel, to 6.9% and improved revenue per shipment sequentially for the ninth consecutive quarter, underpinned by record service quality. At the same time, we became more cost-efficient through tech-driven labor productivity and third-party linehaul insourcing. This included a year-over-year reduction in purchased transportation expense of 53%.�

Harik continued, “Our plan is driving results, with a long runway for margin expansion, supported by superior service and high-return investments in our network. We’re executing to achieve years of outperformance, regardless of the freight market environment.�

First Quarter Highlights

For the first quarter 2025, the company generated revenue of $1.95 billion, compared with $2.02 billion for the same period in 2024. The year-over-year decrease in revenue was due primarily to lower fuel surcharge revenue in the North American LTL segment.

Net income was $69 million for the first quarter, compared with $67 million for the same period in 2024. Diluted earnings per share was $0.58 for the first quarter, compared with $0.56 for the same period in 2024.

Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $87 million for the first quarter, compared with $97 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted diluted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $0.73 for the first quarter, compared with $0.81 for the same period in 2024.

Results by Business Segment

  • North American Less-Than-Truckload (LTL): The segment generated revenue of $1.17 billion for the first quarter 2025, compared with $1.22 billion for the same period in 2024. On a year-over-year basis, shipments per day decreased 5.8%, tonnage per day decreased 7.5%, and yield, excluding fuel, increased 6.9%. Including fuel, yield increased 4.5%.

    Operating income was $158 million for the first quarter 2025, compared with $165 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $165 million for the first quarter, compared with $175 million for the same period in 2024.

    Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter 2025 was $250 million, compared with $255 million for the same period in 2024. The year-over-year reduction in adjusted EBITDA was due primarily to lower fuel surcharge revenue, lower tonnage per day, and wage inflation, partially offset by yield growth and productivity gains.

  • Corporate: The segment generated an operating loss of $9 million for the first quarter 2025, compared with a loss of $23 million for the same period in 2024. The year-over-year improvement in operating loss was due primarily to a $10 million reduction in transaction and integration costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC�), we provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release to the most directly comparable measure under GAAP, which are set forth in the financial tables attached to this press release.

XPO’s non-GAAP financial measures in this press release include: adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA�) on a consolidated basis and for corporate; adjusted EBITDA margin on a consolidated basis; adjusted net income; adjusted diluted earnings per share (“adjusted diluted EPS�); adjusted operating income for our North American Less-Than-Truckload and European Transportation segments; and adjusted operating ratio for our North American Less-Than-Truckload segment.

We believe that the above adjusted financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be reflective of, or are unrelated to, XPO and its business segments� core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying businesses. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore our measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should only be used as supplemental measures of our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating ratio include adjustments for transaction and integration costs, as well as restructuring costs and other adjustments as set forth in the attached tables. Transaction and integration adjustments are generally incremental costs that result from an actual or planned acquisition, divestiture or spin-off and may include transaction costs, consulting fees, stock-based compensation, retention awards, internal salaries and wages (to the extent the individuals are assigned full-time to integration and transformation activities) and certain costs related to integrating and converging IT systems. Restructuring costs primarily relate to severance costs associated with business optimization initiatives. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating XPO’s and each business segment’s ongoing performance.

We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, improve comparability from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest and financing expenses), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax impacts and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables that management has determined are not reflective of core operating activities and thereby assist investors with assessing trends in our underlying businesses. We believe that adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain costs and gains that management has determined are not reflective of our core operating activities, including amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables. We believe that adjusted operating income and adjusted operating ratio improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain transaction and integration costs and restructuring costs, as well as amortization expenses and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables.
