OMAHA, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Werner Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and logistics provider, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

鈥淪econd quarter results showed significant improvement over the first quarter, with operational and strategic progress across our business. Strength in Dedicated continued as we implemented new fleets. One-Way Truckload revenue per total mile increased for the fourth consecutive quarter, driven by recent contractual rate changes and consistent mix. Logistics posted year-over-year revenue growth, solid operating income and margin expansion through disciplined cost management and increased volumes,鈥� said Derek Leathers, Chairman and CEO. 鈥淥ur cost containment actions in the second quarter delivered measurable savings. We remain committed to growing our core business, expanding margins, and leveraging our investments in technology to enhance productivity and maintain strong operating cash flow."

Total revenues for the quarter were $753.1 million, a decrease of $7.7 million compared to the prior year, due to a $19.4 million, or 4%, decrease in Truckload Transportation Services (鈥淭TS鈥�) revenues, partially offset by an increase in Logistics revenues of $12.3 million, or 6%. A portion of the TTS revenue decline was due to $14.8 million lower fuel surcharge revenues. Net of trucking fuel surcharge revenues, consolidated total revenues increased $7.1 million, or 1%, during the quarter.

Operating income of $66.3 million increased $46.7 million, or 238%, while operating margin of 8.8% increased 620 basis points from 2.6%. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted operating income of $16.6 million decreased $4.7 million, or 22%. Adjusted operating margin of 2.2% declined 60 basis points from 2.8%.

During the quarter, non-GAAP adjustments to operating income included the following:

• A reversal of a $45.7 million net liability related to the Texas Supreme Court鈥檚 ruling in Werner鈥檚 favor, reversing and dismissing a $90 million truck accident verdict from 2018. The reversal included Werner's uninsured portion (retention) and accrued interest. The reversal benefit is included in insurance and claims expense.
• A reversal of a $7.9 million liability related to an earnout provision for our acquisition of Baylor Trucking in October 2022, which was based on a range of outcomes. During the quarter, we settled on a final payout, resulting in the reversal of the majority of previously accrued amounts. Although the accrued earnout has been included in GAAP results since the date of acquisition, the reversal was classified as a non-GAAP adjustment in the quarter due to the large, one-time nature of the reversal. This reversal benefit is included in other operating expenses.
• Severance expense of $1.3 million from recent cost actions was also treated as a non-GAAP adjustment. Severance is included in salaries wages and benefits expense.

TTS had operating income of $64.1 million, an increase of $43.1 million, and TTS had non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $12.8 million, a decrease of $10.6 million. Logistics had operating income of $4.3 million, an increase of $3.8 million, and Logistics had non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $5.9 million, an increase of $4.2 million. Corporate and Other (including driving schools) had an operating loss of $2.1 million compared to a $1.9 million operating loss for the same quarter last year, which included a net $1.8 million gain on the sale of two parcels of real estate in second quarter 2024.

Net interest expense of $7.9 million increased $0.6 million primarily due to an increase in average debt outstanding. The effective income tax rate during the quarter increased to 26.2%, compared to 24.2% in second quarter 2024 due to differences in discrete income tax items.

During second quarter 2025 we had net gains on our strategic investments of $0.7 million compared to losses of $0.2 million in prior year. Consistent with prior reporting, increases or decreases to the values of these strategic investments are adjusted out for determining non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share.

Net income attributable to Werner of $44.1 million increased 366%. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted net income attributable to Werner was $6.6 million decreased 38%. Diluted EPS was $0.72, an increase of 380%. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted diluted EPS of $0.11 decreased 36%.

Key Consolidated Financial Metrics

Truckload Transportation Services (TTS) Segment

• Revenues of $517.6 million decreased $19.4 million; trucking revenues, net of fuel surcharge, decreased 2% year over year
• Operating income of $64.1 million increased $43.1 million; non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $12.8 million decreased $10.6 million due entirely to an $8.5 million increase in insurance and claims expense (excluding expense for the reversal of the aforementioned accident lawsuit and verdict from 2018), net impact of change in fuel (surcharges net of fuel expense), and expense associated with implementation of new fleets in Dedicated, partially offset with an increase in gains on sale of property and equipment. Without the impact from elevated insurance, fuel and Dedicated start-ups, TTS adjusted operating income would have increased $2 million
• Operating margin of 12.4% increased 850 basis points from 3.9%; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin, net of fuel surcharge, of 2.8% decreased 220 basis points from 5.0% of which 280 basis points of decline is from the increase in adjusted insurance, change in fuel and Dedicated start-ups. Without these impact, TTS adjusted operating margin, net of fuel surcharge, would have increased by 50 basis points
• Average segment trucks in service totaled 7,489, a decrease of 141 trucks year over year, or 1.8%, while segment trucks at quarter end were up 85 trucks or 1.1%
• Dedicated unit trucks at quarter end totaled 4,890, or 65% of the total TTS segment fleet, compared to 4,825 trucks, or 65%, a year ago
• Average revenues per truck per week, net of fuel surcharge increased 0.3% for TTS

During second quarter 2025, Dedicated experienced net reduction in average trucks, down 0.9% year over year and up 72 trucks, or 1.5%, sequentially. Dedicated quarter-end fleet size was up 1.3% year over year and up 1.1% sequentially driven by implementations of new fleets won in Dedicated in the first quarter 2025, which will continue to be implemented into third quarter. Customer retention is 85%. Dedicated average revenues per truck per week, net of fuel surcharge, increased 0.2%. One-Way revenues per total mile, net of fuel surcharge, increased 2.7% year over year.

Werner Logistics Segment

• Revenues of $221.2 million increased $12.3 million, or 6%

Truckload Logistics revenues (77% of Logistics revenues) increased $13.9 million, or 9%, driven by an increase in shipments of 7% with gross margin expansion. Revenue from our PowerLink offering was up 17% while traditional brokerage recorded mid-single digit revenue growth. Higher volume was the driving factor with modest rate improvement.

Intermodal revenues (13% of Logistics revenues) increased $0.7 million, or 3%, due to 7% more shipments, partially offset by a 4% decrease in revenue per shipment. Second quarter 2025 was our highest operating income quarter in two years for intermodal.

Cash Flow and Capital Allocation

Cash flow from operations in second quarter 2025 was $46.0 million compared to $109.1 million in second quarter 2024, a decrease of 58%.

Net capital expenditures in second quarter 2025 were $65.6 million compared to $99.2 million in second quarter 2024, a decrease of 34%. We continue to prioritize business reinvestment in safe and modern equipment, including trucks and trailers, as well as in technology, our terminal network and our talent. The average ages of our truck and trailer fleets were 2.4 years and 5.5 years, respectively, as of June 30, 2025. Maintaining a low-age, modern fleet improves our driver experience and results in more effective equipment maintenance, safety and fuel efficiency.

Gains on sales of property and equipment in second quarter 2025 were $5.9 million, or $0.07 per share, compared to $2.7 million, or $0.03 per share, in second quarter 2024. Year over year, we sold 54% and 60% fewer tractors and trailers, respectively, and realized much higher average unit gains on tractors and trailers. Gains on sales of property and equipment are reflected as a reduction of other operating expenses in our income statement.

During the quarter, we repurchased 2.1 million shares of common stock for a total cost of $55.0 million, excluding excise taxes, or an average price of $26.05 per share. As of June 30, 2025, we had 1.8 million shares remaining under our share repurchase authorization.

As of June 30, 2025, we had $51 million of cash and cash equivalents and $1.4 billion of stockholders鈥� equity. Total debt outstanding was $725 million at June 30, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (鈥淕AAP鈥�), we provide certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the SEC Regulation G, including non-GAAP adjusted operating income; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Werner; non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share; non-GAAP adjusted operating revenues, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted operating revenues, less purchased transportation expense; non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses; non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted operating ratio; and non-GAAP adjusted operating ratio, net of fuel surcharge. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a more useful comparison of our performance from period to period because they exclude the effect of items that, in our opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as substitutes for their comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures. Although we believe that they improve comparability in analyzing our period to period performance, they could limit comparability to other companies in our industry if those companies define these measures differently. Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered measures of income generated by our business. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis.

The following tables present reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure as required by SEC Regulation G. In addition, information regarding each of the excluded items as well as our reasons for excluding them from our non-GAAP results is provided below.
