Werner Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: WERN) released preliminary unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, citing cost pressures that weighed on earnings.

The trucking and logistics company said it expects total revenues of approximately $946 million to $951 million for the quarter. GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to come in at $0.10 to $0.11, while non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share are estimated at $0.15 to $0.16.

The company said results were negatively affected by approximately $0.18 per share in cumulative cost headwinds compared to the second quarter of 2026. Those headwinds included rapidly rising fuel prices, driver recruitment and retention investments, and a late-quarter insurance reserve adjustment related to past claims.

Werner said it plans to report full third-quarter results on October 27, 2026, after market close.
