Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations: Nine Months Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Nine Months
Ended June 30, 1994
Operating revenues for the first nine months of 1995 increased by
$18,428,000 (11.5%). The number of loads carried increased by 6.3% while
total revenue miles increased by 10.4% in 1995. The Company's other
service revenues included in operating revenues also increased during the
first nine months of 1995.
Operating expenses increased by $14,052,000 (10.5%) due mainly to costs
associated with the increased fleet size. Operating expenses decreased
to 82.2% of revenue in 1995 compared with 82.9% in 1994.
Depreciation expense increased by $1,081,000 (17.3%) principally due
to the increase in capital expenditures associated with the Company's
recently completed tractor replacement program.
Selling and administrative expenses increased by $574,000 (4.3%)
reflecting the increased level of business. These expenses were 7.7% of
revenues in 1995 compared with 8.3% in 1994.
Interest expense increased by $911,000 (59.9%) due to the higher
borrowing levels associated with the Company's increased level of capital
expenditures.
The effective income tax rates for the nine months of 1995 and 1994
were 41.25% and 41.5%, respectively.
Net earnings increased by 23.1% to $4,854,000 or $.54 per share from
$3,943,000 or $.44 per share in 1994. The improvement in net earnings
resulted mainly from the increased revenues offset in part by higher
depreciation and interest expense.
Results of Operations: Quarter Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Quarter Ended
June 30, 1994
Operating revenues for the third quarter increased by $5,172,000 (9.2%)
over the same quarter of 1994. The number of loads carried increased by
4.7% and the revenue per load increased slightly. Other service revenues
included in operating revenues also increased during the third quarter.
On a combined basis, operating expenses and depreciation increased by
$4,565,000 (9.6%) and were 85.1% of revenues in 1995 compared with 84.8%
in 1994. The percentage increase when compared with revenues reflects
the higher levels of depreciation.
Operating expenses increased by $3,980,000 (8.7%) reflecting the
increase in revenues. Operating expenses decreased to 80.8% of revenues
in 1995 compared with 81.2% in 1994.
Depreciation expense increased by $585,000 (28.6%) due to the increase
in capital expenditures associated with the Company's recently completed
tractor replacement program.
FORM 10-Q Page 6 of 7
Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $16,000 (.4%) and
decreased as a percentage of revenue to 7.3% in 1995 from 8.0% in 1994.
Interest expense increased by $323,000 (62.2%) due to the higher level
of capital expenditures in 1995 versus 1994.
The effective income tax rates for the third quarter of 1995 and 1994
were 40.9% and 41.0%, respectively.
Net earnings increased by 8.1% to $2,238,000 or $.25 per share from
$2,071,000 or $.23 per share. The improvement in earnings resulted
mainly from the increase in revenues and lower operating costs offset in
part by increased interest and depreciation expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first nine months of 1995, the Company financed its capital
expenditures through a combination of cash flows from operations,
proceeds from equipment sales, available cash and increased borrowings
under its revolving credit agreement. At June 30, 1995, a total of
$7,561,000 was available to the Company under its $30,000,000 revolving
credit facility.
Otherwise, there were no material changes in the Company's financial
condition, liquidity or capital resources since September 30, 1994. For
further details, see page 7 of the Company's 1994 Annual Report to
Shareholders.
