       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                                MARCH 31, 1995


NOTE A: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In management's opinion, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals)  necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.  Operating results for the three-month period ended March
31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ended December 31, 1995.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto included in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.

NOTE B:  NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT
In the first three months of 1995, the Company's subsidiary, P.A.M. Transport,
Inc., entered into installment obligations for the purchase of replacement
revenue equipment in the aggregate amount of $2.8 million payable in 48 and 60
monthly installments  at an interest rate ranging from 8% to 8.5%.

NOTE C:  ACQUISITION
On January 31, 1995, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock
of Choctaw Express, Inc. and Choctaw Brokerage, Inc. based in Oklahoma City,
(collectively "Choctaw ").  Assets of approximately $2.7 million were acquired
and liabilities of approximately $.7 million were assumed. The total purchase
price for Choctaw was $2,530,915 in cash, subject to closing audit adjustments.
The Company paid an initial payment of $2,404,369 which was financed through
borrowings under the Company's bank line of credit agreement and available
cash.  The remaining balance due is included in other current liabilities in
the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  The final payment will be
funded through borrowings under the Company's bank line of credit agreement and
available cash.

The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method, effective
January 31, 1995, with operations of Choctaw included in the Company's
financial statements for the two months ended March 31, 1995.  The purchase
price has been allocated to assets and liabilities based on their estimated
fair values as of the date of acquisition.  Approximately $451,000  of goodwill
was recorded as a result of the purchase allocation and is being amortized over
a 30-year period.  A final allocation of the purchase price will be completed
in 1995 based on determination of the final purchase price.  The final
allocation is not expected to vary materially from amounts previously recorded.
The Company will also pay $325,000 per year for a five year noncompete
agreement with the former sole shareholder of Choctaw.

Pro forma unaudited financial information (as if the Choctaw acquisition was
completed at the beginning of the respective periods) for the first quarter of
1995 and 1994 is provided below:

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1994

For the quarter ended March 31, 1995 revenues increased 17.2% to $22.1 million
as compared to $18.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1994.  The main
factors for the increase in revenues were (1) a 10.7% increase in average
tractors from 569 in 1994 to 630, of which 55 were added in connection with the
acquisition of Choctaw  which produced revenues of $1.8 million for the first
quarter of 1995, and (2) improved utilization of equipment by increasing
revenue per tractor per work day by 4.3% for the first quarter of 1995 compared
to the first quarter of 1994.

The Company's operating ratio improved from 90.1% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1994 to 89.3% in the first quarter of 1995.

Salaries, wages and benefits increased from 43% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1994 to 45.7% of revenues in the first quarter of 1995.  The major
factors were as follows:  an increase in owner operator expense, an increase in
the Arkansas unemployment rate from .5% in the first quarter of 1994 to 2.4%
for the first quarter of 1995, and the accrual of bonus compensation related to
the Company's Incentive Compensation Plan.

Operating supplies and expenses decreased from 21.2% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1994 to 18.2% of revenues in the first quarter of 1995, as the
Company continues to modernize its fleet.  The largest areas of savings were
realized in repairs and maintenance where a 2% reduction was recorded, coupled
with a 1.2% decrease in fuel expense.

Rent and purchased transportation increased from 1.9% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1994 to 2.7% of revenues in the first quarter of 1995.  This was
primarily due to the use of rental equipment by Choctaw, which was acquired by
the Company on January 31, 1995.  The majority of the rental equipment has been
replaced by Company owned equipment.  Management expects cost reductions will
be recognized in the second quarter related to the change to Company owned
equipment at Choctaw.

The Company incurred an increase in depreciation expense as a result of the new
equipment being placed into service.  Depreciation expense increased from 8.9%
of revenues in the first quarter of 1994 to 9.1% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1995.

Operating taxes and licenses as a percent of revenues decreased from 7.1% in
the first quarter of 1994 to 6.2% in the first quarter of 1995 due largely to
lower accruals of state fuel tax expenses.

Insurance and claims expense decreased from 5.2% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1994 to 4.6% of revenues in the first quarter of 1995.  This
decrease was due to premium reductions as a result of continued favorable loss
experience and lower costs due to self insurance arrangements.

The Company's principal subsidiary, P.A.M. Transport, Inc., has a $7.5 million
secured bank line of credit subject to borrowing limitations.  Outstanding
advances on this line of credit were approximately $2.7 million (at an interest
rate of 8.63%) at March 31, 1995.  The Company's borrowing base limitation at
March 31, 1995 was $6.6 million.  The line of credit is guaranteed by the
Company and matures May 31, 1996.

The Company entered into installment obligations in the first quarter of 1995
for the purchase of replacement revenue equipment for approximately $2.8
million payable in 48 and 60 monthly installments at an interest rate ranging
from 8% to 8.5%.

During 1995 the Company plans to replace 185 trailers and 155 tractors and
expects to incur additional debt of approximately $12 million.

Operating results during the first quarter of 1995 provided net cash from
operations of approximately $3.2 million.

Management of the Company believes that its cash requirements for 1995 will be
adequately met from operating cash flows and the Company's available credit
line.



ACQUISITION


On January 31, 1995, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock
of Choctaw Express, Inc. and Choctaw Brokerage, Inc. based in Oklahoma City,
(collectively "Choctaw").  The total purchase price for Choctaw was
approximately $2.5 million in cash, subject to closing audit adjustments.  The
acquisition was financed through borrowings under the Company's bank line of
credit agreement and available cash, and the acquisition will be accounted for
under the purchase method, effective January 31, 1995 with operations included
in the Company's financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.  The
Company will also pay $325,000 per year for a five year noncompete agreement
with the former sole shareholder of Choctaw.  See Note C to the accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited).

       EXHIBIT (11)----STATEMENT RE:  COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share computations assumes the exercise of stock warrants and
options to purchase shares of common stock.  The shares assumed exercised are
based on the weighted average number of warrants and options outstanding during
the period.  Under the treasury stock method of computing earnings per share,
the number of shares of treasury stock assumed to be repurchased is limited to
20% of common stock outstanding, with the remaining shares assumed to be newly
issued and with the excess proceeds assumed to have reduced long-term
borrowings outstanding for the periods.
