Disclosure This presentation, including documents incorporated herein by reference, will contain forward- looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Please review our disclosures in filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Non-GAAP Financial Data This presentation includes the use of adjusted operating income, operating ratio, adjusted operating ratio, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted pre-tax income, return on net tangible assets and free cash flow, which are financial measures that are not in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Each such measure is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors and lenders. While management believes such measures are useful for investors, they should not be used as a replacement for financial measures that are in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our use of these non-GAAP measures should not be interpreted as indicating that these or similar items could not occur in future periods. In addition, adjusted operating ratio excludes trucking segment fuel surcharges from revenue and nets these surcharges against fuel expense. 2

Disclosure On September 8, 2017, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 9, 2017, by Swift Transportation Company (“Swift”), Bishop Merger Sub, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Swift, (“Merger Sub”), and Knight Transportation, Inc. (“Knight”), Merger Sub merged with and into Knight, with Knight surviving as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Swift (the “2017 Merger”). Knight was the accounting acquirer and Swift was the legal acquirer in the 2017 Merger. In accordance with the accounting treatment applicable to the 2017 Merger, throughout this presentation, the reported results do not include the results of operations of Swift and its subsidiaries on and prior to the 2017 Merger date of September 8, 2017 (the “2017 Merger Date”). However, where indicated, certain historical information of Swift and its subsidiaries on and prior to the 2017 Merger Date, including their results of operations and certain operational statistics (collectively, the “Swift Historical Information”), has been provided. Management believes that presentation of the Swift Historical Information will be useful to investors. The Swift Historical Information has not been prepared in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Article 11 of Regulation S-X, and it therefore does not reflect any of the pro forma adjustments that would be required by Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The Swift Historical Information does not purport to indicate the results that would have been obtained had the Swift and Knight businesses been operated together during the periods presented, or which may be realized in the future. 3

(3) Lease Adjustment is management's estimated value of operating leases as if they were capital leases.

(5) Adjusted Leverage Ratio represents the Leverage Ratio adjusted to include the Lease Adjustment in Net Leverage while also adding back the corresponding rent expense into Adjusted EBITDA in order to calculate the adjusted leverage ratio. (Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA less certain adjustments pursuant to the credit facilities.) 11
