ArcBest Corporation® Announces Second Quarter 2016 Results
FORT SMITH, Ark., July 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ArcBest Corporation® (Nasdaq: ARCB) today reported second quarter 2016 net income of $10.2 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to second quarter 2015 net income of $20.0 million, or $0.74 per diluted share. The inconsistent economic operating environment combined with a surplus of transportation capacity continues to impact available business levels and operating margins at ABF Freight and at each of ArcBest's asset-light logistics companies. In the midst of this challenging period, ArcBest continues to successfully build on the strategic opportunities it has to gain new business, strengthen shipper relationships and offer additional services to existing customers. The ArcBest companies are focused on delivering superior service levels while working together to offer comprehensive logistics solutions that meet customer needs at a fair price.
Excluding certain items in both periods, ArcBest's non-GAAP net income was $10.0 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, in second quarter 2016 compared to earnings of $20.2 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, last year.
"Despite the current environment, we have a tremendous market opportunity within a customer base that values our differentiated customer experience," said ArcBest Chairman, President and CEO Judy R. McReynolds. "The ArcBest companies continue to provide more logistics service options to our customers, who in turn value the trusted advice and deep industry knowledge we bring to help solve their logistics challenges."
Freight Transportation (ABF Freight)
Results of Operations Second Quarter 2016
- Revenue of $486.7 million compared to $504.4 million in second quarter 2015, a per-day decrease of 4.3 percent. Year-over-year reductions in fuel surcharge associated with lower diesel fuel prices contributed to ABF Freight's lower revenue compared to last year.
- Tonnage per day decrease of 4.0 percent compared to second quarter 2015.
- Shipments per day decrease of 0.4 percent compared to second quarter 2015.
- Total billed revenue per hundredweight increased slightly, by 0.1 percent, compared to the prior year reflecting reduced fuel surcharges. Excluding fuel surcharge, the percentage increase on ABF Freight's traditional LTL freight was in the low-single digits.
- Operating income of $17.4 million and an operating ratio of 96.4 percent compared to $28.1 million and an operating ratio of 94.4 percent in second quarter 2015. Excluding adjustments for nonunion pension settlement charges, operating income of $17.8 million and an operating ratio of 96.3 percent.
Factors impacting ABF Freight's business levels and operating results are consistent with those seen earlier in the year. ABF Freight's decreasing average weight per shipment has been driven by market factors that include abundant customer inventory levels combined with excess industry capacity available to move customers' larger-sized shipments. Along with the effects of lower fuel surcharges, these factors have contributed to reduced second quarter revenue compared to last year. Though the current LTL pricing environment is competitive, it remains rational. Despite the impact of lower fuel surcharges, ABF Freight achieved reasonable increases on shipper pricing agreements and an average 2.9 percent increase on customer contract renewals during the quarter.
The continued strength in shipments relative to tonnage levels resulted in dock and street labor costs disproportionate to the revenue associated with reduced tonnage levels. ABF Freight's traditional focus on customer service, even during periods of slower demand, is also putting some pressure on productivity metrics and operating margins. The consistent replacement of road and city tractors with newer units is yielding the expected positive cost benefits in the areas of equipment repair and maintenance, fuel economy and equipment rentals.
Asset-Light Logistics
Results of Operations Second Quarter 2016
- Revenue of $205.2 million compared to $204.9 million in second quarter 2015.
- Asset-light revenue equaled 30 percent of total consolidated revenue, compared to 29 percent during the same period last year.
Combined second quarter revenue for ArcBest's asset-light logistics business increased slightly compared to last year due to the effects of revenue growth at ABF Logistics, primarily related to its December 2015 acquisition of Bear Transportation, offset by market-driven revenue declines at ArcBest's remaining asset-light logistics companies.
At ABF Logistics, revenue and gross margin per shipment decreased due to the impact of lower fuel prices and lower market rates resulting from excess truckload capacity in the spot market. Despite strong shipment growth at its legacy locations, driven by continued expansion of its customer base and collaboration among the ArcBest companies, legacy brokerage revenue was only slightly positive due to the lower revenue per shipment. Systems integration, training and alignment of positions at the newly acquired Bear locations were substantially completed during second quarter 2016 but negatively impacted employee productivity, and thus operating results. As efficiencies improve, these new locations are expected to contribute positively to earnings by the end of 2016.
Second quarter revenue at each of ArcBest's other asset-light logistics companies was below the previous year due to lower market demand, an abundance of available transportation capacity and changes in customer mix. Reduced demand for the premium and expedited logistics services offered by Panther, combined with customer needs for smaller shipments moving shorter distances, has contributed to lower revenue levels and reduced operating margins. The slight decline in FleetNet's revenue was due to decreases in event activity in both emergency roadside services and fleet maintenance and reduced business levels from transportation-related commercial customers. Despite continued success in adding business with its consumer and corporate customers, ABF Moving's total second quarter revenue decreased because of the decline in government shipments handled.
"It is important to note that even during the current economic environment we continue to receive very positive feedback from many customers. They tell us that our expanded offerings are exactly in line with their evolving requirements for end-to-end shipping solutions and, increasingly, a single point of contact," said McReynolds.

ARCBEST CORPORATIONRECONCILIATIONS OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures. We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, utilized for internal analysis provides analysts, investors, and others the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our core operating performance and provides meaningful comparisons between current and prior period results, as well as important information regarding performance trends. Accordingly, using these measures improves comparability in analyzing our performance because it removes the impact of items from operating results that, in management's opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Furthermore, management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a key measure of performance and for business planning. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a primary component of the financial covenants contained in our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently; and therefore, our calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Certain information discussed in the scheduled conference call could be considered non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results. These financial measures should not be construed as better measurements than operating income, operating cash flow, net income or earnings per share, as defined by GAAP.
