prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of

normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 are not

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
- ----------------------------
Certain information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may relate to
financial results and plans for future business activities, and are thus
prospective. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ
materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Potential risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to,
general economic conditions, competition and other uncertainties detailed in
this report and detailed from time to time in other filings by the Company with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the quarter ended March 31, 2000, revenues increased 5.4% to $54.1 million
as compared to $51.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. The main
factor for the increase was an increase in the average number of tractors from
1,405 in the first quarter of 1999 to 1,477 in the first quarter of 2000.
The Company's operating ratio increased to 91.0% for the first quarter of 2000
as compared to 88.0% for the first quarter of 1999.
Salaries, wages and benefits increased from 43.6% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1999 to 44.8% of revenues in the first quarter of 2000. The
increase relates primarily to an increase in costs associated with providing
health care coverage to employees.
Operating supplies and expenses increased from 15.9% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1999 to 18.2% of revenues in the first quarter of 2000. The
increase relates primarily to an increase in fuel costs of 3.2% net of a fuel
surcharge passed to customers.
Rent and purchased transportation decreased from 7.8% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1999 to 6.6% of revenues in the first quarter of 2000. The decrease
relates primarily to the replacement of rental trailers with Company owned
trailers.
Depreciation and amortization increased from 8.2% of revenues in the first
quarter of 1999 to 8.9% of revenues in the first quarter of 2000. The increase
is due to the replacement of older tractors which were fully depreciated.
The Company's effective tax rate decreased from 40.8% in the first quarter of
1999 to 39.9% in the first quarter of 2000. This decrease is related to
an increase in the deduction allowed for per diem payments made to drivers.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- ----------------------------------
During the first three months of 2000, the Company generated $6.0 million in
cash from operating activities. Investing activities used $6.4 million in cash
in the first three months of 2000. Financing activities generated $1.5 million
in the first three months of 2000 primarily from long-term borrowings.
The Company's principal subsidiary, P.A.M. Transport, Inc., has a $15.0 million
secured bank line of credit subject to borrowing limitations. Withdrawals
from the line of credit are at an interest rate of LIBOR as of the first day of
the month plus 1.40% (7.32% at March 31, 2000). Outstanding advances on this
line of credit were approximately $9.3 million at March 31, 2000, including $3.3
million in letters of credit. The Company's borrowing base limitation at
March 31, 2000 was $5.7 million. The line of credit is guaranteed by the
Company and matures on May 31, 2001.
In addition to cash flows from operations, the Company uses its existing line of
credit on an interim basis to finance capital expenditures and repay long-term
debt. Longer-term transactions, such as installment notes (generally three to
five year terms at fixed rates), are typically entered into for the purchase of
revenue equipment; however, the Company purchased additional revenue equipment
during the first three months of 2000 at a cost of approximately $4.6 million
using its existing line of credit. In addition, P.A.M. Transport, Inc.
entered into an installment obligation during the first three months of 2000 for
the purchase of revenue equipment in the amount of approximately $4.2 million,
payable in 48 monthly installments at an interest rate of 7.25%.
During the remainder of 2000, the Company plans to replace 219 tractors which
will result in additional debt of approximately $11.9 million. Management
expects that the Company's existing working capital and its available line of
credit will be sufficient to meet the Company's capital commitments as of
March 31, 2000, to repay indebtedness coming due in the current year, and to
fund its operating needs during the remainder of fiscal 2000.
<PAGE>
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
------------------------------
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company's line of credit agreement provides for borrowings, which bear
interest at variable rates based on the LIBOR. At March 31, 2000, the
Company had approximately $9.3 million outstanding pursuant to the its line of
credit. The Company believes that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible
near-term changes in interest rates on the Company's financial position, results
of operations, and cash flows should not be material.
All customers are required to pay for the Company's services in U.S. dollars
and the Company does not engage in hedging transactions relating to diesel fuel
or any other commodity.

EXHIBIT (11)----STATEMENT RE: COMPUTATION OF DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
Diluted earnings per share computations assumes the exercise of stock purchase
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 and only include those warrants and options whose
average share price during the period exceeds its related exercise price. The
net additional shares issuable are calculated based on the treasury stock
method and are added to the weighted average number of shares outstanding during
the period.
