NEWS RELEASE
FORWARD AIR CORPORATION REPORTS
SECOND QUARTER 2016 RESULTS AND
QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND


GREENEVILLE, Tenn.- (BUSINESS WIRE) - July 21, 2016 - Forward Air Corporation (NASDAQ: FWRD) today reported operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

Operating revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 decreased 4.4% to $238.6 million from $249.7 million for the same quarter in 2015. Loss from operations was $14.3 million, which includes a one-time non-cash charge of $42.4 million primarily resulting from intangible asset impairments related to the Company’s TQI acquisition. This loss compares to income from operations of $19.9 million in the prior-year quarter. Net loss during the period was $10.1 million compared to net income of $11.8 million in the second quarter of 2015. Net loss per share for the second quarter of 2016 was $0.33 compared to net income per diluted share of $0.38 in the prior-year quarter. Net of tax effects, the TQI impairment charge accounted for $27.4 million or $0.90 per diluted share of the second quarter of 2016 net loss.

During its customary second quarter evaluation of goodwill and intangibles, the Company determined that the fair values of its TQI goodwill and other intangibles were below their carrying values. In accordance with GAAP, the Company recorded the aforementioned charge. This one-time non-cash charge has no impact on the Company’s business operations, liquidity, credit facilities or compliance with existing debt covenants.

Income from operations, adjusted to exclude the $42.4 million impairment charge in the second quarter of 2016 and $6.9 million in Towne deal and integration costs in the second quarter of 2015, increased to $28.1 million for the second quarter of 2016 from $26.8 million for the second quarter of 2015.  Adjusted net income increased to $17.3 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $16.0 million in the prior-year quarter. Similarly, adjusted earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of 2016 increased to $0.57 compared with $0.51 in the prior-year quarter.

A tabular reconciliation detailing the adjustments made to arrive at the adjusted financial results set forth above from financial results determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles is contained in the financial summary statements attached to this press release.

Bruce A. Campbell, Chairman, President, and CEO, commenting on the second quarter results said, “Our Expedited LTL group posted an 82.8 operating ratio for the quarter, reflecting better overall linehaul pricing and outstanding operating efficiencies as we realize the benefits of the Towne integration. Within our Truckload Expedited business segment, TLX performed well while TQI, without regard to the impairment charge, continues to make slow albeit steady progress. While our Intermodal group was able to adjust to a macro driven decline in revenue and largely maintain its relative profitability, our Pool segment posted a slight net loss addressing its second quarter revenue growth.”

Commenting further, Mr. Campbell said, “In spite of a sluggish economic outlook, we feel that we are well positioned going into the second half of the year. In the meantime, any incremental pick up in freight volumes should be meaningful to the bottom line.”

In closing Mr. Campbell said, “As always I would like to thank all of our employees and independent contractors for the hard work that made these results possible. With their ongoing support and commitment, our team looks forward to bringing continued value to our shareholders.”






Commenting on the Company’s third quarter guidance, Michael J. Morris, Senior Vice President and CFO, said, “Reflecting the outlook Bruce mentioned in his commentary, we expect third quarter year-over-year revenue growth to be in the range of 1% to 5%. We expect adjusted income per diluted share for the third quarter of 2016 to be between $0.61 and $0.65 per share compared to an adjusted $0.58 per share in the third quarter of 2015. Included in this range is an estimated $0.03 per share negative impact from lower fuel surcharges.”

On July 21, 2016, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock. The dividend is payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 22, 2016, and is expected to be paid on September 6, 2016.

This quarterly dividend is pursuant to a cash dividend policy approved by the Board of Directors, which anticipates a total annual dividend of $0.48 per share of common stock, payable in quarterly increments of $0.12 per share of common stock. The actual declaration of future cash dividends, and the establishment of record and payment dates, is subject to final determination by the Board of Directors each quarter after its review of the Company's financial performance.

Also, on July 21, 2016, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase authorization for up to three million shares of the Company’s common stock. In connection with this action, the board canceled the Company’s 2014 share repurchase authorization. The amount and timing of any repurchases under the Company’s new repurchase authorization will be at such prices as determined by management of the Company. Repurchases of common stock may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit common stock to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. Share repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time for any reason. The Company currently has approximately 30,020,187 shares outstanding.

Year to date through July 2016, the Company has returned approximately $37.3 million to shareholders by paying approximately $7.3 million in dividends and repurchasing approximately $30.0 million of common stock.

Review of Financial Results

Forward Air will hold a conference call to discuss second quarter 2016 results on Friday, July 22, 2016 at 9:00 a.m. EDT. The Company's conference call will be available online at www.forwardair.com or by dialing (800) 230-1059. A replay of the conference call will be available at www.forwardair.com beginning shortly after the completion of the live call.






About Forward Air Corporation

Forward Air Corporation's services can be classified into four segments: Expedited LTL, Expedited Truckload Services (“TLX”), Intermodal and Pool Distribution.

In our Expedited LTL segment, we provide time-definite transportation services to the North American deferred air freight market. Our Expedited LTL service operates a comprehensive national network for the time-definite surface transportation of expedited ground freight. The Expedited LTL service offers customers local pick-up and delivery and scheduled surface transportation of cargo as a cost effective, reliable alternative to air transportation. Expedited LTL’s other services include shipment consolidation and deconsolidation, warehousing, customs brokerage, and other handling. The Expedited LTL segment primarily provides its transportation services through a network of terminals located at or near airports in the United States and Canada.

In our TLX segment we provide expedited truckload brokerage, dedicated fleet services and maximum security and temperature-controlled logistics services. We are able to expedite this service by utilizing a dedicated fleet of team owner operators, some team company drivers as well as third-party transportation providers. The TLX segment provides full truckload service in the United States and Canada.

In our Intermodal segment, we provide container and intermodal drayage services primarily within the Midwest region of the United States. Drayage is essentially the first and last mile of the movement of an intermodal container. We are providing this service both to and from ports and rail heads. Our Intermodal segment also provides dedicated contract and Container Freight Station (“CFS”) warehouse and handling services. Today our Intermodal segment operates primarily in the Midwest but through acquisition as well as green-field start-ups we anticipate moving into other geographies within the United States.

In our Pool Distribution segment, we provide pool distribution services throughout the Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Midwest and Southwest continental United States. Pool Distribution involves managing high-frequency handling and distribution of time-sensitive product to numerous destinations in specific geographic regions. Our primary customers for this service are regional and nationwide distributors and retailers, such as mall, strip mall and outlet based retail chains.

Forward Air Corporation Reconciliation to U.S. GAAP

The Company believes that meaningful analysis of our financial performance in 2016 and 2015 requires an understanding of the factors underlying that performance, including an understanding of items that are not on-going and directly the result of our acquisition activity. We believe that excluding intangible asset impairment costs related to the TQI segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and integration costs related to Towne Air from our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 will assist investors in understanding our core operating performance and allow for more accurate comparisons of results. As required by SEC rules, the tables below present, for the periods indicated, a reconciliation of our presented adjusted non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "goal," "seek," "believe," "project," "estimate," "expect," "strategy," "future," "likely," "may," "should," "will" and similar references to future periods. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements we make regarding expected operating results, such as revenue growth and earnings, and guidance relating to income per diluted share for the second quarter.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: economic factors such as recessions, inflation, higher interest rates and downturns in customer business cycles, our inability to maintain our historical growth rate because of a decreased volume of freight moving through our network or decreased average revenue per pound of freight moving through our network, increasing competition and pricing pressure, surplus inventories, loss of a major customer, the creditworthiness of our customers and their ability to pay for services rendered, our ability to secure terminal facilities in desirable locations at reasonable rates, the inability of our information systems to handle an increased volume of freight moving through our network, changes in fuel prices, claims for property damage, personal injuries or workers' compensation, employment matters including rising health care costs, enforcement of and changes in governmental regulations, environmental and tax matters, the handling of hazardous materials, the availability and compensation of qualified independent owner-operators and freight handlers needed to serve our transportation needs and our inability to successfully integrate acquisitions.

Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
