XPO Announces Third Quarter 2022 Results

Delivered third quarter record operating income, up 65% year-over-year

Improved tonnage in North American LTL each month through third quarter; tonnage inflected positive year-over-year in September

Grew North American truck brokerage volume year-over-year by 9%

GREENWICH, Conn., Oct. 31, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  XPO (NYSE: XPO) today announced its financial results for the third quarter 2022.

Revenue was $3.04 billion for the third quarter, compared with $3.27 billion for the same period in 2021. Excluding third quarter 2021 revenue from the company’s intermodal operation, which was sold in March 2022, third quarter 2022 revenue increased year-over-year by 3%.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders was $131 million for the third quarter, compared with $21 million for the same period in 2021. Operating income was $185 million for the third quarter, compared with $112 million for the same period in 2021. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per share was $1.13 for the third quarter, compared with $0.19 for the same period in 2021.

Adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased to $168 million for the third quarter, compared with $109 million for the same period in 2021. Adjusted diluted earnings from continuing operations per share, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $1.45 for the third quarter, compared with $0.94 for the same period in 2021.

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, increased to $352 million for the third quarter, compared with $307 million for the same period in 2021.

For the third quarter 2022, the company generated $265 million of cash flow from operating activities and $142 million of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are provided in the attached financial tables.

2022 Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) Financial Targets

For the full year 2022, for the North American LTL business, the company reaffirmed the following targets, both previously announced: 

  • At least $1 billion of full year adjusted EBITDA, including gains on sales of real estate of up to $50 million in the fourth quarter; and
  • Year-over-year improvement of 50 to 100 basis points in adjusted operating ratio for the full year, including at least 120 basis points of improvement in the fourth quarter, excluding gains on sales of real estate.

CEO Comments

Brad Jacobs, chairman and chief executive officer of XPO, said, “Our record results in the third quarter demonstrate how strongly our North American businesses are positioned for growth as standalone companies. Both LTL and truck brokerage outperformed on key metrics leading into tomorrow’s spin-off, and will thrive under the leadership of Mario Harik as CEO of XPO, and Drew Wilkerson as CEO of RXO.

“Our plan for LTL 2.0 is showing tangible results. We reported third quarter LTL records for revenue and adjusted EBITDA. Our year-over-year tonnage accelerated every month through the quarter and inflected positive in September, with more improvement in October. Importantly, our third quarter tonnage trend outperformed typical seasonality, bucking industry trends.

“Our truck brokerage business achieved a gross profit margin of 19% in the third quarter, with gross profit dollars up dramatically year-over-year by 31%. We grew volume by 9%, decisively outpacing the industry.”

Jacobs continued, “I thank our shareholders for their long-standing support of the company we began building in 2011 and the new public companies we’ve created. XPO was the seventh best-performing stock of the last decade on the Fortune 500, and I’m proud that our evolution into XPO, RXO and GXO is serving the best interests of our shareholders.”

  • North American Less-Than-Truckload (LTL): The segment generated revenue of $1.2 billion for the third quarter 2022, compared with $1.1 billion for the same period in 2021. The year-over-year growth in revenue primarily reflects an increase in yield.

    Operating income for the segment was $182 million for the third quarter 2022, compared with $149 million for the same period in 2021. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2022, which had no gains on real estate sales, was $258 million; compared with adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2021 of $222 million, which included approximately $5 million in gains on real estate sales. Excluding real estate sales in both periods, LTL adjusted EBITDA grew by 19%.

    Third quarter 2022 operating ratio was 85.0%. Adjusted operating ratio, excluding gains on real estate sales, improved 160 basis points year-over-year to 82.8%.
  • Brokerage and Other Services: Revenue for the segment was $1.92 billion for the third quarter 2022, compared with $2.26 billion for the same period in 2021. The decrease in revenue was due primarily to the sale of the North American intermodal operation in March 2022, which impacted revenue by $309 million (including intercompany transactions). 

    Operating income for the segment was $62 million for the third quarter 2022, compared with $58 million for the same period in 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was $123 million for the third quarter 2022, compared with $131 million for the same period in 2021. The year-over-year decrease in adjusted EBITDA was due primarily to the sale of the intermodal operation.

    Truck brokerage revenue in North America decreased 2% to $686 million for the third quarter 2022, compared with $700 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease in revenue was primarily driven by lower truckload pricing in the spot market, partially offset by a year-over-year increase in North American truck brokerage volume, facilitated by the company’s digital brokerage platform.

  • Corporate: Corporate expense was $59 million for the third quarter 2022, compared with $95 million for the same period in 2021. Corporate adjusted EBITDA was an expense of $29 million for the third quarter 2022, compared with $46 million for the same period in 2021.

Liquidity and Deleveraging

As of September 30, 2022, the company had $1.54 billion of total liquidity, including $544 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $1 billion of available borrowing capacity. The net leverage ratio as of September 30, 2022 was 1.7x, down from 1.8x as of June 30, 2022, and within the company’s target range of 1.0x – 2.0x.

Net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt of $2.36 billion, divided by adjusted EBITDA of $1.40 billion for the trailing 12 months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release to the most directly comparable measure under GAAP, which are set forth in the financial tables attached to this press release.

XPO’s non-GAAP financial measures in this press release include: adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”) on a consolidated basis and for corporate and intersegment eliminations; adjusted EBITDA margin on a consolidated basis; adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders and adjusted diluted earnings from continuing operations per share (“adjusted EPS”); margin (revenue less cost of transportation and services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)) and margin as a percentage of revenue (margin % of revenue) by service offering; free cash flows; adjusted operating income (including and excluding gains on real estate transactions) for our North American less-than-truckload segment; adjusted operating ratio (including and excluding gains on real estate transactions) for our North American less-than-truckload segment; adjusted EBITDA excluding gains on real estate transactions for our North American less-than-truckload segment; net leverage and net debt. We also refer to (i) margin as gross profit dollars and (ii) margin as a percentage of revenue (margin % of revenue) as gross profit margin in this release.

We believe that the above adjusted financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be reflective of, or are unrelated to, XPO and its business segments’ core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying businesses. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore our measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should only be used as supplemental measures of our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders and adjusted EPS include adjustments for transaction and integration costs, as well as restructuring costs and other adjustments as set forth in the attached tables. Transaction and integration adjustments are generally incremental costs that result from an actual or planned acquisition, divestiture or spin-off and may include transaction costs, consulting fees, retention awards, and internal salaries and wages (to the extent the individuals are assigned full-time to integration and transformation activities) and certain costs related to integrating and converging IT systems. Restructuring costs primarily relate to severance costs associated with business optimization initiatives. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating XPO’s and each business segment’s ongoing performance.

We believe that free cash flow is an important measure of our ability to repay maturing debt or fund other uses of capital that we believe will enhance stockholder value. We calculate free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, less payment for purchases of property and equipment plus proceeds from sale of property and equipment. We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin improve comparability from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest and financing expenses), asset base (depreciation and amortization), litigation settlements, tax impacts and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables that management has determined are not reflective of core operating activities and thereby assist investors with assessing trends in our underlying businesses. We believe that adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders and adjusted EPS improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain costs and gains that management has determined are not reflective of our core operating activities, including amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables. We believe that margin (revenue less cost of transportation and services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)) and margin as a percentage of revenue (margin % of revenue) improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the cost of transportation and services, in particular the cost of fuel, incurred in the reporting period as set out in the attached tables. We believe that adjusted operating income and adjusted operating ratio improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by (i) removing the impact of certain transaction and integration costs and restructuring costs, as well as amortization expenses and (ii) including the impact of pension income incurred in the reporting period as set out in the attached tables. We believe that net leverage and net debt are important measures of our overall liquidity position and are calculated by removing cash and cash equivalents from our reported total debt and reporting net debt as a ratio of our trailing twelve-month reported adjusted EBITDA.

With respect to our financial targets for full year 2022 and fourth quarter 2022 North American LTL adjusted operating ratio, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP  measures is not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability and complexity of the reconciling items described above that we exclude from these non-GAAP target measures. The variability of these items may have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results and, as a result, we are unable to prepare the forward-looking statement of income and statement of cash flows prepared in accordance with GAAP that would be required to produce such a reconciliation.

The income tax rate applied to reconciling items excluding the gain on sale of business is based on the GAAP annual effective tax rate, excluding discrete items and contribution- and margin-based taxes. The income tax rate applied to the gain on the sale of business represents the actual tax expense impact which is considered a discrete item.
             
(2) Discrete tax items reflect a tax benefit related to a tax planning initiative that resulted in the recognition of a long-term capital loss offset by tax expense due to valuation allowances that were recognized as a result of the spin-off of our logistics business.
