NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Form 10-Q instructions and, thus, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements reflect all adjustments, including those of a normally recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the results of the reported interim periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The statements should be read in conjunction with the summary of accounting policies and notes to financial statements included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.

2. Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Boyd Bros. Transportation Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Boyd Logistics, Inc. (“Logistics”) and WTI Transport, Inc. (“WTI”). Boyd, Logistics, and WTI are referred to herein collectively as the “Company”. All significant inter-company balances, transactions and stockholdings have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform to the current period presented.

3. Environmental Matters

The Company’s operations are subject to certain federal, state, and local laws and regulations concerning the environment. Certain of the Company’s facilities are located in historically industrial areas, and, therefore, there is the possibility of environmental liability as a result of operations by prior owners, as well as the Company’s use of fuels and underground storage tanks at its regional service centers.

4. Stockholders’ Equity

Earnings Per Share

The following is a reconciliation from basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share for each of the periods presented:

Stock Options

The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS” or “Statement”) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure,” which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, which was originally provided under SFAS No. 123. The Statement also improves the timeliness of disclosures by requiring the information be included in interim, as well as annual, financial statements. The adoption of these disclosure provisions did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

The Company has a stock option plan (the “Plan”) that provides for the granting of stock options to key employees, executive officers and directors. An aggregate of 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for this Plan. The options are exercisable in increments over a five-year period beginning on the first anniversary of the grant and will expire ten years after the date of the grant. No options were granted or exercised in ~~the first quarter of~~ 2004 or 2003.

SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The option price of all the Company’s stock options is equal to the market value of the stock at the grant date. As such, no compensation expense is recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Had compensation cost been determined based upon the fair value at the grant date for awards under the Plan consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, the Company’s pro forma net income and net income per share would have differed from the amounts reported as follows:

For the Quarter Ended March 31,
2004

Net income, as reported $ 383,967 $ 4,185

The Company has entered into a commitment letter with Dempsey Boyd dated August 4, 2004, pursuant to which Mr. Boyd has committed, subject to the absence of ~~2004.~~any material adverse change in the financial condition of the Company and various other closing conditions, to provide up to $9.2 million of the financing necessary to complete the Merger. The term loan will bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.5% per annum, and will have a 36-month term. Mr. Boyd has the option to secure the term loan with available Company assets, but Mr. Boyd has agreed to subordinate the repayment of the term loan to the loans of other Company creditors who require subordination and whose consent is required to proceed forward with the Merger and the term loan. A portion of the amount committed by Mr. Boyd may be replaced by other term or revolving debt from a third party lender prior to or following the closing of the Merger.

6. Goodwill

~~In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and~~The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with SFAS No.142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” ~~SFAS No. 141 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.~~ SFAS No.142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. The Company adopted SFAS ~~Nos. 141 and~~No. 142 on January 1, 2002, and, accordingly, ceased amortization of goodwill at that time. The Company evaluates its goodwill for potential impairment in the fourth quarter of each year. As a result of its evaluation in the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company determined there was no impairment. No events have occurred since that assessment date to cause a significant change in the values used for evaluating impairment.

7. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On March 31, 2004, the FASB issued an Exposure Draft on Share-Based Payments, which is a proposed amendment to FAS 123. The Exposure Draft would require all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The FASB expects to issue a final standard late in 2004 that would be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. If the exposure draft is issued in final form, the Company will be required to expense the fair value of the stock options granted beginning January 1, 2005 and the fair value of unvested prior grants. The expense for these options will occur over the option vesting period. The Company’s 2003 Form 10-K includes proforma information in Note 1 regarding the impact of expensing stock options on the Company’s net income and earnings per share for prior years.

8. Segment Information

The Company has three reportable segments: the Boyd division (“Boyd”), the Boyd Logistics division (“Logistics”), and the WTI division (“WTI”). Boyd is a flatbed carrier that hauls primarily steel and building products throughout most of the continental United States, and operated an average of ~~700~~680 trucks during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2004. Boyd averaged ~~545~~533 company drivers and ~~155~~147 owner-operators during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004. Logistics brokers freight by identifying external shipping needs and matching available external carrier resources to those needs. This division requires minimal overhead and capital resources and provides a service through logistically coordinating needs for carriers to available carriers and scheduling the service to be provided. All carriers brokered through Logistics are responsible for maintaining proper insurance coverage and are required to provide proof of such coverage prior to brokerage of a load. WTI is a flatbed carrier that hauls steel and roofing products, primarily in the eastern two-thirds of the United States, and operated an average of ~~215~~224 trucks during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2004. WTI averaged 4042 company drivers and ~~175~~182 owner-operators during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2004. Unaudited segment reporting information for the periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004 and 2003 is as follows:

9. Merger Agreement

On December 31, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 31, ~~2003 (the~~2003. Since that announcement, the Agreement and Plan of Merger has been amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 27, 2004, Amendment No. 2 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 30, 2004, and Amendment No. 3 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 9, 2004 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”)~~, which~~. The Merger Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of the proposed ~~acquisition~~merger (the “Merger”) of ~~the Company by~~ BBT Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“BBT Acquisition”), with and into the Company. BBT Acquisition is controlled by Dempsey Boyd, the founder and former Chairman and CEO of the Company, his daughter, Gail B. Cooper, the current President and CEO of the Company, his daughter, Ginger B. Tibbs, the current Secretary/Treasurer of the Company, and his wife, Frances S. Boyd.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, stockholders of the Company (other than BBT Acquisition and its stockholders) will receive ~~$7.00~~$9.18 per share, in cash, for each outstanding share of Company ~~Common Stock~~common stock owned by such stockholders. The transaction is structured as a forward merger in which BBT Acquisition will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation. The boards of directors of each of the Company and BBT Acquisition have unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger. In the case of the Company’s Board, the approval follows the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of outside directors of the Company that was formed to evaluate and respond to the original proposal of Mr. Boyd and Ms. Cooper.

Completion of the ~~proposed merger between the Company and BBT Acquisition Corporation~~Merger is conditioned upon, among other things, the availability of sufficient funds for BBT Acquisition ~~Corporation~~ to acquire the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. BBT Acquisition ~~Corporation~~ anticipates that the ~~merger would~~Merger will be funded from (i) a ~~bank financing in~~term loan of up to $9.2 million from Dempsey Boyd and (ii) the ~~form~~balance of ~~(i) an approximately $13 million revolving~~the funds from the Company’s line of credit and ~~(ii) a $37 million term loan. The merger financing would include a refinancing of all~~working capital. A portion of the ~~Company’s outstanding~~amount committed by Mr. Boyd may be replaced by other term or revolving debt ~~as described above. The Company and BBT Acquisition Corporation are currently involved in~~from a third party lender prior to or following the ~~negotiation~~closing of ~~a definitive commitment to finance~~ the ~~merger.~~Merger. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004, the Company had a receivable for approximately ~~$400,000~~$512,000 due from BBT Acquisition ~~Corporation~~ for payment of expenses including, but not limited to, legal fees and valuations associated with the transaction.

The Merger is subject to (i) approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s ~~Common Stock~~common stock which are outstanding as of the August 6, 2004 record date for the special meeting of the Company’s stockholders ~~to be~~ called to consider the Merger, (ii) the completion of the financing arrangements necessary to consummate the Merger, and (iii) certain other closing conditions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached interim consolidated financial statements and with the Company’s 2003 Form 10-K, which included audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Executive Summary

The Company is one of the largest exclusively flatbed trucking carriers in the United States. The Company provides flatbed transportation services through three divisions:

• Boyd Bros.(“Boyd”) provides longer haul flatbed trucking services in the contiguous United States and some parts of Canada primarily for the steel and construction industries.

• WTI Transport(“WTI”) provides shorter haul flatbed trucking services in the southeastern United States for the steel and construction industries and for an increasingly diverse customer base.

• Boyd Logistics(“Logistics”) provides logistical support to the Boyd and WTI divisions ~~of the Company~~ and brokers freight through the use of other trucking companies.

The Company uses both Company employed drivers and independent owner-operators who are responsible for maintaining and insuring their own equipment. The Company ~~has continued to pursue a strategy of reducing the number of Company employed drivers in favor of independent owner-operators in an effort to reduce costs. As part of this strategy, the Company~~ maintains an owner-operator lease program to attract qualified owner-operators. ~~Despite recent problems encountered with keeping qualified drivers in the lease program, the~~The Company believes new policies implemented in the fourth quarter of 2003 will ~~eventually be successful~~aid its efforts in recruiting and maintaining qualified owner-operators.

The Company’s greatest cash requirements are recruiting and retaining qualified drivers, acquiring tractors and trailers, and operating its equipment (including driver pay, fuel costs, insurance and maintenance). The Company’s financial results are affected by the availability of qualified drivers and the market for new and used tractors. Because the Company is primarily self-insured for cargo, personal injury and property damage claims on its tractors and for workers’ compensation benefits for its drivers, financial results may also be affected by driver safety, medical costs, the legal and regulatory environment and the costs of insurance coverage to protect against catastrophic losses.

~~First~~Second Quarter and Year to Date Highlights

• Revenue Growth.The Company’s operating revenues increased by ~~6.3%~~10.3%, or approximately $2$3.5 million in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase in total operating revenues was primarily due to increased revenues generated by ~~the Company’s Boyd and WTI~~all three divisions. Boyd’s operating revenues increased ~~5.9%~~approximately $2.4 million or 9.4% over operating revenues from the ~~first~~second quarter of 2003, ~~and~~ WTI’s operating revenues increased ~~9.3%~~approximately $0.7 million or 10.7% and Logistic’s operating revenues increased approximately $0.4 million or 18.4% over the same period last year. In each case, the increase in operating revenues was due to both diversification outside of the steel and building materials industries and increases in revenue per mile. Boyd revenue per mile increased by ~~$0.09~~$0.13 per mile and WTI revenue per mile increased by ~~$0.11~~$0.12 per mile, in each case over revenues per mile for the same period in 2003. ~~Logistics’ operating revenues increased 3.3% or $89,188 over the same period last year.~~

• Driver Retention.Increases in driver pay and the implementation of a new program for retention of new owner-operators helped to decrease driver turnover. Boyd drivers received pay increases totaling ~~$0.03~~$0.05 per mile during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004. Additionally, new owner-operators entering the Boyd lease purchase program with less than one year of previous experience as an owner-operator must work as Company drivers for a ~~period~~minimum of four (4) weeks. The program allows drivers to become acclimated to working for Boyd prior to entering the lease purchase program.

~~First~~Second Quarter Challenges

• Fuel Costs.The increasing cost of diesel fuel continues to be one of the Company’s most difficult challenges. Fuel expense increased ~~$520,483,~~$803,181, or ~~11.3%~~19%, during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The Company has been able to partially offset increased fuel prices by recovering fuel surcharges from customers. Fuel surcharge revenue, which is included in operating revenues, increased ~~$437,551~~$798,267 to ~~$1,429,115,~~$1,821,558, or ~~44.1%~~78.0%, from ~~$991,564~~$1,023,291 for the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2003. Competitive conditions in the transportation industry, as well as poor economic conditions in the steel industry, have negatively impacted the Company’s ability to pass through fuel cost increases to its customers.

• Increased Operating Expenses.Total operating expenses increased ~~$1.5~~$3.1 million, or ~~4.6%~~9.4%, over the same period in 2003. Fuel expense was a large component of this increase, as discussed above, but increases in salaries, wages and employee benefits also contributed to the increase in total operating expenses. Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased 9%18.1% during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase iswas attributable to the Boyd division, ~~both~~ due to the increases in driver pay during the first quarter of 2004 and to an increase of approximately 400,000 ~~miles in the number of~~ miles driven by Company drivers during the quarter compared to the same period last year. Additionally, insurance expense increased due to increases in expenses related to workers compensation claims.

Recent Developments

On December 31, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, ~~which~~dated as of December 31, 2003. Since that announcement, the Agreement and Plan of Merger has been amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 27, 2004, Amendment No. 2 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 30, 2004, and Amendment No. 3 to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 9, 2004 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of the proposed ~~acquisition~~merger (the “Merger”) of ~~the Company by~~ BBT Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“BBT Acquisition”)., with and into the Company. BBT Acquisition is controlled by Dempsey Boyd, the founder and former Chairman and CEO of the Company, his daughter, Gail B. Cooper, the current President and ~~Chief Executive Officer~~CEO of the Company, ~~Frances S. Boyd and~~his daughter, Ginger B. Tibbs, ~~and together they hold approximately 72%~~the current Secretary/Treasurer of ~~the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Agreement and Plan of Merger provides for the merger of BBT Acquisition into~~ the Company, and ~~results in each stockholder~~his wife, Frances S. Boyd.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, stockholders of the Company (other than BBT Acquisition and its stockholders) ~~receiving $7.00~~will receive $9.18 per share, in cash, for each outstanding share of Company common stock owned ~~at the time of the merger.~~

~~On May 5, 2004,~~by such stockholders. The transaction is structured as a forward merger in which BBT Acquisition will merge with and into the Company, ~~announced that it had entered into an amendment~~with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation. The Merger is subject to the merger agreement with BBT Acquisition extending its termination date until June 30, 2004, from April 30, 2004. The Company also announced that a commitment for financing for the merger had been entered into(i) approval by the ~~parties, subject to certain closing conditions. The transaction remains subject to the completion~~holders of ~~financing arrangements, approval by~~ a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock which are outstanding as of the August 6, 2004 record date for the special meeting of the Company’s stockholders called to consider the Merger, (ii) the completion of the financing arrangements necessary to consummate the Merger, and (iii) certain other ~~customary~~ closing conditions.

The Company’s total operating revenues increased ~~$2,039,914~~$3,528,185 or ~~6.3%~~10.3% to ~~$34,617,390~~$37,896,315 for the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004, compared with ~~$32,577,476~~$34,368,130 for the same period in 2003. This change reflected an increase of ~~$1,435,684~~$2,379,114 or ~~5.9%~~9.4% in the Boyd division, an increase of ~~$89,188~~$445,295 or ~~3.26%~~18.4% in the Logistics division and an increase of ~~$515,042~~$703,776 or ~~9.3%~~10.7% in the WTI division. These changes are reflective of diversification outside of the steel and building materials industries and also reflective of an increase in revenue resulting from increased rates charged to customers. Revenue per mile increased by approximately ~~$0.09~~$0.13 per mile for Boyd and approximately ~~$0.11~~$0.12 per mile for WTI. Included in revenues are fuel surcharges in the amount of ~~$1,429,115~~$1,821,558 and ~~$991,564~~$1,023,291 for the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Average revenue per total mile for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2004 was ~~$1.30~~$1.48 while average revenue per total mile was ~~$1.20~~$1.34 for the same period in 2003.

Total operating expenses increased ~~$1,478,585~~$3,103,496 or ~~4.6%~~9.4% to ~~$33,718,072~~$36,057,600 for the ~~first~~second quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004, compared to ~~$32,239,487~~$32,954,104 for the same period last year. Of this dollar increase, $2,363,915 was attributable the Boyd division while the WTI division accounted for $469,082. The Logistics division accounted for an increase of $270,499 in total operating expenses. As a percentage of revenues, total operating expenses decreased from ~~99.0%~~95.9% in 2003 to ~~97.4%~~95.1% in 2004. ~~Of this increase in total operating expenses, $1,241,425 was attributable the Boyd division~~

Owner-operators are responsible for payment of the expenses they incur including fuel, operating supplies, and taxes and licenses, while the Company incurs these expenses related to Company drivers. Consequently, the amount paid per mile (shown as salaries and wages for Company drivers and within cost of independent contractors for owner-operators) for owner-operators is greater than that of Company drivers.

As a percentage of revenues, salaries, wages and employee benefits increased to 30% during the second quarter of 2004 compared to 28.5% of revenue in the same period in 2003. This increase is attributable primarily to the Boyd division resulting from pay increases to drivers. Boyd increased Company driver pay by a total of $0.05 per mile during the first half of 2004. Increases were given in $0.01 increments per month during each of the first three months of the year, and $0.01 each in May and June. Additionally, Company drivers drove approximately 400,000 more miles during the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003.

Included in cost of independent contractors are costs for which owner-operators are responsible, costs incurred/earned by the Company related to the lease purchase of tractors to owner-operators, and costs related to the Logistics division. Cost of independent contractors for the Company increased $52,598, or 0.5%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period last year. The Boyd division accounted for a decrease of $446,066. This decrease was primarily a result of a decrease in the amounts paid to owner-operators due to fewer miles driven. Though owner-operators received the same pay per mile increases as described above for Company drivers (a total of $0.05 in increments of $0.01), owner-operators drove approximately 578,000 fewer total miles in the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. During the fourth quarter of 2003, the Boyd division implemented a new program whereby new owner-operators entering the lease purchase program with less than one year of previous experience as a successful owner-operator are required to be a Company driver for a minimum of four weeks prior to becoming a Boyd owner-operator. This program has helped to decrease driver turnover and enabled owner-operators to become more profitable by allowing owner-operators to become familiar with the Company and its operations. The Logistics division accounted for an increase of $228,583 of the total net increase in cost of independent contractors. This increase was directly related to Logistics increase in revenue. The WTI division accounted for $276,079 of the increase in cost of independent contractors. The increase of costs contributed by WTI was a direct result of WTI’s 2.1% increase in operating revenue, as discussed above.

Fuel expense, also associated with Company drivers and included in the line item “Operating supplies” in the consolidated statement of income, increased $803,181 or 19.2% from 2003. The significant portion of the increase, $693,530, was recognized by the Boyd division because the Boyd division has a larger percentage of Company drivers. The Company generally has been able to partially offset significant increases in fuel costs through increased rates and through a fuel surcharge that increases incrementally as the price of fuel increases. Total miles driven by Company drivers increased by approximately 400,000 miles for the second quarter of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.

Insurance and claims increased to 4.4% of revenues in the second quarter of 2004, compared to 3.2% of revenues during the second quarter of 2003. The Company reserved an additional $400,000 during the second quarter of 2004 related to increases in workers compensation claims and an increase in reserves related to one accident during the second quarter of 2004 which resulted in serious injury to a third party. During the second quarter of 2004, the Company was not involved in any accidents involving fatalities. See “Insurance and Liability Claims” for further information regarding the Company’s insurance program and claims exposure.

Other operating supplies included with fuel within the item “Operating Supplies” increased $260,897 during the second quarter of 2004. The increase was primarily due to less income generated from repairs performed by Boyd personnel and charged to owner-operators. The repairs Boyd makes to owner-operator equipment is charged to the owner-operator and reduces the expense recognized for repairs. With approximately 578,000 fewer miles driven by owner-operators, fewer repairs were required on these vehicles. Also, repair costs were higher in the second quarter of 2004 due to increased miles driven on Company owned vehicles.

Depreciation expense decreased by $296,058 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, as compared to the same period in 2003. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in total fleet size.

Gain on disposition of property and equipment decreased due to fewer equipment trades during the second quarter of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.

Provisions for income tax for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 resulted in a provision of $411,303 and an effective tax rate of 40.3%. The effective tax rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes and the non-deductibility of certain expenses for tax purposes.

Year to Date Results of Operations

The Company’s total operating revenues increased $5,299,598 or 7.9% to $72,245,206 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with $66,945,608 for the same period in 2003. This change reflected an increase of $3,546,298 or 7.1% in the Boyd division, an increase of $534,483 or 10.4% in the Logistics division and an increase of $1,218,817 or 10.1% in the WTI division. These changes are reflective of diversification outside of the steel and building materials industries and also are reflective of an increase in revenue resulting from increased rates charged to customers. Revenue per mile increased by approximately $0.10 per mile for Boyd and WTI. Included in revenues are fuel surcharges in the amount of $2,982,175 and $2,014,855 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Average revenue per total mile for the first half of 2004 was $1.44 while average revenue per total mile was $1.33 for the same period in 2003.

Total operating expenses increased $4,320,863 or 6.6% to $69,514,454 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to $65,193,591 for the same period last year. Of this increase, $3,336,841 was attributable the Boyd division and the WTI division accounted for $743,243. The Logistics division accounted for an increase of $240,779 in total operating expenses. As a percentage of revenues, total operating expenses decreased from 97.4% in 2003 to

96.2% in 2004. As discussed below, the net increase in operating expenses is primarily a result of increases in salaries, wages, and employee benefits, fuel expense, operating supplies expense, and insurance expense combined with decreases in ~~insurance~~depreciation expense and ~~claims~~decreased gains on disposition of property and equipment expense.

As a percentage of revenues, salaries, wages and employee benefits increased ~~9.0%~~to 29.8% during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2004 compared to 28.5% of revenue in the same period in 2003. This increase is attributable primarily to the Boyd division resulting from pay increases to drivers. Boyd increased Company driver pay by a total of ~~$0.03~~$0.05 per mile during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004. Increases were given in $0.01 increments per month during each of the first three months of the ~~year.~~year, and an additional $0.01 each in May and June. Additionally, Company drivers drove approximately ~~400,000~~720,000 more miles during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2004 compared to the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2003.

Included in cost of independent contractors are costs for which owner-operators are responsible, costs incurred/earned by the Company related to the lease purchase of tractors to owner-operators, and costs related to the Logistics division. Cost of independent contractors for the Company increased ~~$9,640,~~$62,240, or ~~0.1%~~0.3%, for the ~~quarter~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004 compared to the same period last year. The Boyd division accounted for a decrease of ~~$298,538.~~$764,984. This decrease was primarily a result of a decrease in the amounts paid to ~~owner-operators.~~owner-operators due to fewer miles driven. Though owner-operators received the same pay per mile increases as described above for Company drivers (a total of ~~$0.03~~$0.05 in increments of ~~$0.01 per month)~~$0.01), owner-operators drove approximately ~~420,000~~1.1 million fewer total miles in the ~~first three~~six months ofended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. During the ~~forth~~fourth quarter of 2003, the Boyd division implemented a new program whereby new owner-operators entering the lease purchase program with less than one year of previous experience as a successful owner-operator ~~must become~~are required to be a Company driver for a minimum of four weeks prior to becoming a Boyd owner-operator. This program has helped to decrease driver turnover and enabled owner-operators to become more profitable. The Logistics division accounted for ~~a slight decrease~~an increase of ~~$17,241~~$205,344 of the total net increase in cost of independent contractors. This increase was directly related to Logistics increase in revenue. The WTI division accounted for ~~$345,801~~an increase of ~~the increase~~$621,880 in cost of independent contractors. The increase of costs contributed by WTI was a direct result of ~~the WTI contribution of increased~~WTI’s 10.1% increase in operating revenue, ~~of 9.3%,~~ as discussed above.

Fuel expense, also associated with Company drivers and included in the line item “Operating supplies” in the consolidated statement of income, increased ~~$520,483~~$1,055,168, or ~~11.3%~~12.0%, from 2003. The significant portion of the increase, ~~$488,294,~~$913,329, was recognized by the Boyd division because the Boyd division has a larger percentage of Company drivers. The Company generally has been able to partially offset significant increases in fuel costs through increased rates and through a fuel surcharge that increases incrementally as the price of fuel increases. Total miles driven by Company drivers increased by approximately ~~400,000~~720,000 miles for the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.

Insurance and claims ~~decreased~~increased to ~~3.1%~~3.8% of revenues in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004, compared to ~~3.9%~~3.7% of revenues during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2003. The Company reserved ~~approximately $250,000~~an additional $400,000 during the ~~first~~second quarter of ~~2003~~2004 related to increases in workers compensation claims and an increase in reserves related to one accident ~~involving a fatality~~ during the ~~quarter.~~second quarter of 2004 which resulted in serious injury to a third party. During the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004, the Company was not involved in any accidents involving fatalities. See “Insurance and Liability Claims” for further information regarding the Company’s insurance program and claims exposure.

Other operating supplies included with fuel within the item “Operating Supplies” increased ~~$450,899~~$711,792 over the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004 as compared to the first half of 2003. The increase was primarily due to less income generated from repairs ~~done~~performed by Boyd personnel and charged to owner-operators. The repairs Boyd makes to owner-operator equipment is charged to the owner-operator and reduces the expense recognized for repairs. With approximately ~~420,000~~1.1 million fewer miles driven by owner-operators, fewer repairs were required on these vehicles. Also, repair costs were higher in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004, compared to 2003, due to increased miles driven on Company owned vehicles.

15Depreciation expense decreased by $280,713 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, as compared to the same period in 2003. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in total fleet size.

Gain on disposition of property and equipment decreased due to fewer equipment trades during the first half of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.

Provisions for income tax for the ~~quarter~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004 resulted in a provision of ~~$263,666~~$894,552 and an effective tax rate of ~~40.7%~~40.6%. The effective tax rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes and the non-deductibility of certain expenses for tax purposes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary cash requirements are for capital expenditures and operating expenses, including labor costs, fuel costs and operating supplies, and the payment of current debt maturities. Historically, the Company’s primary sources of cash have been continuing operations, bank borrowings and dealer financings.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash ~~flow~~flows from operations provided ~~$1.8~~$5.5 million for the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2004 ~~and $2.8~~compared to $5.4 million for the ~~first quarter~~six months of 2003. Net income adjusted for non-cash income and expense items provided cash of ~~$2.8~~$5.9 million and ~~$2.5~~$5.8 million for ~~the first quarter of~~ 2004 and 2003 year-to-date periods, respectively. Non-cash income and expense items include depreciation and amortization, provisions for bad debt losses, losses on disposals of property and equipment, income related to owner-operator sales-type leases, and deferred income taxes. Working capital items used cash of ~~$1.0 million in the first quarter of 2004 and provided~~ $0.4 million in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004 and 2003.

The increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items from 2003 to 2004 of ~~$0.3~~$0.1 million was due primarily to increased net income and increased net gains on sales type leases with independent contractors during 2004.

~~The increase in working capital items used in cash flows of $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2004 was a result of increases~~Increases in accounts receivable ~~due to~~during the first half of 2004 resulted from increased revenue. ~~The Company lengthened its payment cycle for accounts payable, which increased trade and interline payables in the amount of $1.2 million since December 31, 2003. Additionally, accruals~~Accruals for salaries payable increased approximately ~~$0.5~~$0.6 million since December 31, 2003, due to increases in driver pay rates during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004. Self-insurance claims increased approximately $1.0 million due primarily to increases in workers compensation claims accruals and one accident in the first six months that involved serious injury to a third party.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The growth of the Company’s business and maintenance of its modern fleet has required significant investments in new tractors and trailers, which has been financed largely through long-term debt. Historically, the Company financed its major capital equipment purchases consisting primarily of revenue equipment and, to a lesser extent, construction of terminals, through bank financings. Dealer financed purchases in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004 amounted to ~~$1.6~~$3.3 million, while no dealer-financed purchases were made during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2003.

The Company invested ~~$0.7~~$1.1 million and ~~$0.8~~$4.7 million for revenue equipment and other property and equipment during the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004 and 2003, respectively. The 2004 amount excludes $3.3 million of dealer -financed purchases of revenue equipment, which are recognized as non-cash investing activities. Total investment for equipment and other property, which includes capital expenditures and dealer-financed purchases, remained stable year over year. The proceeds from property dispositions exclude revenue equipment traded on new equipment.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

During the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004, the Company paid ~~$3.6~~$6.5 million towards the reduction of its long-term debt. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004, the Company had debt (including current maturities) of ~~$27.8~~$26.9 million. In the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004, new debt of approximately ~~$1.6~~$3.3 was incurred through dealer-financed purchases for revenue equipment. During the first ~~quarter~~half of 2003, ~~$0.4~~$4.0 million of new debt was incurred to purchase equipment.

The Company ~~drew~~paid approximately ~~$1.0~~$0.2 million, net, ~~from~~on its line of credit during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2004. ~~Proceeds were used primarily to support operations.~~

The Company has entered into a commitment letter with ~~a third party lender~~Dempsey Boyd dated August 4, 2004, pursuant to which ~~the lender~~Mr. Boyd has committed, subject to ~~satisfactory completion~~the absence of ~~due diligence~~any material adverse change in the financial condition of the Company and various other closing conditions, to provide up to $9.2 million of the financing necessary to complete the ~~Company’s going private transaction.

A portion of the amount committed by Mr. Boyd may be replaced by other term or revolving debt from a third party lender prior to or following the closing of the Merger.

The Company anticipates generating sufficient cash from operations in 2004 to cover planned capital expenditures and servicing current maturities of long-term debt. AsThrough the first six months of ~~March 31,~~ 2004, the Company purchased ~~twenty-five~~seventy-five new tractors, offset by the same number of trade-ins. Historically, the Company has relied on cash generated from operations to fund its working capital requirements. Over the long term, the Company will continue to have significant capital needs that may require it to seek additional borrowings or equity capital. The availability of debt financing or equity capital will depend on prevailing market conditions, the market price of its common stock, and other factors over which the Company has no control, as well as the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Factors That May Affect Future Results

The Company’s future results may be affected by a number of factors over which the Company has little or no control. Fuel prices, insurance and claims costs, liability claims, interest rates, the availability of qualified drivers, fluctuations in the resale value of revenue equipment, economic and customer business cycles, and shipping demands are economic factors over which the Company has little or no control. Significant increases or rapid fluctuations in fuel prices, interest rates, insurance costs or liability claims, to the extent not offset by increases in freight rates, and the resale value of revenue equipment could result in Company losses. Weakness in the general economy, including a weakness in consumer demand for goods and services, could adversely affect customers and result in customers reducing their demand for transportation services, which, in turn, could adversely affect the Company’s growth and revenues. Weakness in customer demand for the Company’s services or in the general rate environment also may restrain the Company’s ability to increase rates or obtain fuel surcharges.

The following issues and uncertainties, along with the other issues and uncertainties discussed in this report and the Company’s 2003 Form
10-K, should be considered in evaluating the Company’s outlook:

Fuel Price Trend

Many of the Company’s operating expenses, including fuel costs and fuel taxes, are sensitive to the effects of inflation, which could result in higher operating costs. Throughout the first ~~quarter~~half of 2004, the Company experienced fluctuations in fuel costs as a result of conditions in the petroleum industry. Increases in fuel costs may affect operating income, unless the Company is able to pass those increased costs to customers through rate increases and fuel surcharges.

The Company has initiated a program to obtain rate increases and fuel surcharges from customers in order to cover increased costs due to these increases in fuel prices, driver compensation, and other expenses and has been successful in implementing some fuel surcharges and certain rate increases. Competitive conditions in the transportation industry, including lower demand for transportation services, could limit the Company’s ability to obtain rate increases or fuel surcharges in the future. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004, the Company had no derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to fuel price fluctuations. The Company also has periodically experienced some wage increases for drivers. Increases in driver compensation may affect operating income, unless the Company is able to pass those increased costs to customers through rate ~~increases and fuel surcharges.~~increases.

Fuel shortages or increases in fuel taxes or fuel costs have adversely affected, and may in the future adversely affect, the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. Fuel prices have fluctuated greatly, and fuel taxes have generally increased in recent years. The Company has not experienced difficulty in maintaining necessary fuel supplies and, in the past, the Company generally has been able to partially offset significant increases in fuel costs and fuel taxes through increased freight rates and through a fuel surcharge which increases incrementally as the price of fuel increases. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to recover any future increases in fuel costs and fuel taxes through increased rates. If fuel prices continue to increase or are sustained at these higher levels for a continuing period of time, the higher fuel costs may have a materially adverse effect on the financial condition and business operations of the Company. Additionally, the increased fuel costs may continue to have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s efforts to attract and retain owner-operators, expand its pool of available trucks, and diversify its operations.

1719

Insurance and Liability Claims

The Company’s future insurance and claims expenses could exceed historical levels, which could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. Effective July 1, 2004, the Company obtained new insurance coverage from two carriers. Under the first policy, the Company is insured for claims of personal injury and property damage combined up to $1 million per occurrence, with a $500,000 deductible. The second policy provides an additional $1 million in coverage over the first policy, but the Company is responsible for the first $1 million in claims that exceed the coverage limits of the first policy. The Company ~~currently self-insures~~previously self-insured for a portion of the claims exposure resulting from cargo loss, personal injury, and property damage, combined up to $750,000 per occurrence. In addition, the Company ~~will share~~shared costs above the $750,000 self-insured amount at a rate of thirty three percent, up to the Company’s coverage amount of two million dollars. Costs and claims in excess of the Company’s coverage amount of two million dollars will be borne solely by the Company. The Company’s workers’ compensation self-insurance level is a maximum of $500,000, and the health insurance self-insurance level is $175,000 per person per year. If the number or dollar amount of claims for which the Company is self-insured increases, the financial condition of the Company could be adversely affected.

A Company driver was involved in an accident in the first quarter of 2002 that resulted in a third party fatality. Company drivers were also involved in five accidents resulting in fatalities during 2003, one of which involved personal injury to three individuals. During the first quarter of 2002, the self-insured amount for cargo loss, personal injury and property damage, combined was $500,000 per occurrence, which would be the amount applicable to the accident during the first quarter of 2002. The self-insured amount for the two accidents in the first half of 2003 was $750,000, with the Company also responsible for its shared amount of 50% of any amounts between $750,000 and the $2 million insurance coverage and all amounts in excess of the insured amount. The Company was involved in three accidents involving fatalities during the third quarter of 2003. During the second quarter of 2004, the company was involved in an accident, which involved serious injury to a third party. The self-insured amount relating to these accidents is $750,000, with the Company also responsible for its shared amount of 33% of any amounts in excess of $750,000 up to the $2 million insurance coverage and all amounts in excess of the insured amount.

Each of these accidents, taken separately, has the potential to cause the Company to reach its total per occurrence retention amount for insurance purposes. To date, five lawsuits have been filed against the Company with respect to the fatalities arising from these accidents. If the Company is ultimately found to have some liability for one or more of these accidents, the Company would seek to pay or structure payments of the amount due from its operating cash flows and, if needed, additional bank financing. Although the Company does not expect this to occur, it is possible that liability resulting from these accidents could exceed the Company’s operating cash flows and available financing. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the Company’s operations and financial condition would not be materially affected if the Company were found to have liability for one or more of these accidents. If insurance expenses continue to increase, and the Company is unable to offset the increase with higher freight rates, the Company’s operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. The Company has provided for its best estimate of losses on these claims at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004 in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheet.

Revenue Equipment

The Company’s growth has been made possible through the addition of new revenue equipment. Difficulty in financing or obtaining new revenue equipment (for example, delivery delays from manufacturers or the unavailability of independent contractors) could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial condition.

In the past, the Company has acquired new tractors and trailers at favorable prices and has entered into agreements with the manufacturers to repurchase the tractors from the Company at agreed prices. Current developments in the secondary tractor and trailer resale market have resulted in a large supply of used tractors and trailers on the market. This has depressed the market value of used equipment to levels significantly below the prices at which the manufacturers have agreed to repurchase the equipment. Accordingly, some manufacturers may refuse or be financially unable to keep their commitments to repurchase equipment according to their repurchase agreement terms.

Critical Accounting Policies

The methods, estimates and judgments the Company’s management uses in applying Company accounting policies may have a significant effect on the results the Company reports in its financial statements. The estimates and judgments in applying those accounting policies which may have the most significant effect on the Company’s financial statements and operating results include: allowance for doubtful accounts for tractors leased to ~~owner-~~owner-operators; determinations of

1820

~~operators; determinations of~~ impairment of long-lived assets; estimates of accrued liabilities for insurance claims for liability and both physical and property damage and workers’ compensation; estimates of useful lives and salvage values for the depreciation of tractors and trailers; allowance for doubtful accounts receivable; and evaluation of impairment of goodwill. Our review of these accounting items and the resulting accounting positions taken by the Company are based upon certain assumptions and conditions and reflect our management’s best assumptions and estimates; however, estimates of these types of accounting items, particularly impairment and accrued liabilities, involve inherent uncertainties as described above, that are beyond management’s control. As a result, the accounting for such items could result in different amounts if management uses different assumptions or if different conditions occur in future periods. Please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition — Critical Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 for a more complete description of the Company’s critical accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk due to its long-term debt, which at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004 bore interest at rates ranging from 1.25% to 2.85% above the applicable bank’s LIBOR rate. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, the Company has estimated that the fair value of its long-term debt approximates its carrying value, using a discounted cash flow analysis based on borrowing rates available to the Company. The effect of a hypothetical one percent increase in interest rates would decrease pre-tax income by approximately ~~$261,000.~~$269,000. Management believes that current working capital funds are sufficient to offset any adverse effects caused by changes in these interest rates.

Commodity Price Risk

The price and availability of diesel fuel are subject to fluctuations due to changes in the level of global oil production, seasonality, weather, and other market factors. The geopolitical situation in the Middle East caused oil prices to rise dramatically in the first quarter of ~~2003.~~2003, which has continued through the first six months of 2004. Historically, the Company has been able to recover a majority of fuel price increases from customers in the form of fuel surcharges. The Company cannot predict the extent to which high fuel price levels will continue in the future or the extent to which fuel surcharges could be collected to offset such increases. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2004, the Company had no derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to fuel price fluctuations. The Company will consider possible opportunities to hedge fuel costs in the future.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

~~(a)~~ Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
