XPO Inc. reported that its revenue for the second quarter remained stable compared to the previous year, as the company continues to enhance its operations, services, and technology. In the three months ending June 30, the Greenwich, Conn.-based less-than-truckload carrier posted a net income of $106 million, or 89 cents per diluted share, down from $150 million, or $1.25 per share, in the same quarter last year. Total revenue stood at $2.08 billion.
Despite a challenging freight environment characterized by a decline in tonnage, XPO’s CEO, Mario Harik, emphasized that their commitment to customer-focused service has driven an above-market pricing growth and shares gains among local clients. He credited this focus with achieving a 6.1% increase in yield and a 5.6% rise in revenue per shipment compared to the previous year, demonstrating the effectiveness of their operational model.
“Our adjusted operating ratio has improved significantly over the past three years, showcasing the strength of our operations,” Harik stated during a conference call with investors. He highlighted that their strategy has resulted in enhanced margins despite industry-wide softening.
The report indicated a slight decline in revenue in XPO’s North American Less-Than-Truckload segment, which fell 2.5% to $1.24 billion. Shipments per day decreased by 5.1%, and tonnage per day also fell by 6.7%. However, the increase in yields and revenue per shipment reflects the effectiveness of their pricing strategies.
