ITEM 7.01 REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
In March 2020, J. B. Hunt Transport Services Inc.’s (the “Company”) management changed the way it internally evaluates the operating performance of its business units and adopted a new segment reporting structure that will begin with the release of Q1 2020 results. As part of this new structure, the Company separated its Dedicated Contract Services segment into two reportable segments: Dedicated Contract Services and Final Mile Services. The Company is now comprised of the following segments:
| • | Dedicated Contract Services (DCS) |
| • | Integrated Capacity Solutions (ICS) |
| • | Final Mile Services (FMS) |
On April 7, 2020, the Company made available on its website at www.jbhunt.com under the “Investors” and “Presentations” tabs and in the attached Exhibit 99.1 certain recast reportable business segment historical results and other statistical information for each quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018. These segment changes have no impact on our historical consolidated balance sheets, statements of earnings or cash flows. The recast segment financial and statistical information provided in Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K do not represent a restatement of previously issued financial statements.
