Van Buren, AR – April 25, 2019 – USA Truck, Inc. (NASDAQ: USAK), a leading capacity solutions provider, today announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, consolidated operating revenue was $134.0 million compared to $125.0 million for the prior-year period. Base revenue, which excludes fuel surcharge revenue, was $118.4 million compared to $110.3 million for the 2018 period. The Company reported net income of $1.5 million, or $0.18 per diluted share for the first quarter 2019 and adjusted net income of $2.0 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to net income and adjusted net income of $1.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share and $1.1 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, respectively, for the same quarter in 2018. The Company's first quarter 2019 consolidated operating ratio was 97.1%, compared to 98.1% in the comparable 2018 quarter.
President and CEO James Reed commented, "The first quarter of 2019 marks the 2nd consecutive first quarter of profitability and the most profitable first quarter since 2006. Add that to seven consecutive quarters of profitability, and our leadership team can drop the ‘new’ moniker - this team continues to improve results quarter after quarter and year after year. The first quarter was important in the making of USA Truck’s narrative about our ability to compete, our self-help story, and our position in the marketplace.
The quarter presented a complex environment with dropping spot rates that put pressure on our logistics business, a continued challenging driver market, increasing fuel prices, relative seasonally soft first quarter demand, and another unusually difficult weather season. Despite that, USA Truck grew revenue 7.2% and trucking revenues grew 20.4%. Even after all of the above, our team increased earnings per share by $0.05 per diluted share, or 38.5%, and adjusted earnings per share by $0.10 per diluted share, or 71.4%, year over year.
The team here is unwavering in its commitment to continue to improve results and outpace market forces in our operational and financial measures. It was a tough quarter, but we persevered and produced a result that demonstrates progress toward becoming one of the best performing companies in our sector. USA Truck is, indeed, back - and we are eager to achieve our full potential.”
Trucking: For the first quarter of 2019, Trucking operating revenue (before intersegment eliminations) increased $16.1 million, or 20.4%, to $94.9 million, compared to the first quarter of 2018. This increase was primarily due to a 11.7% increase in base revenue per loaded mile. Trucking adjusted operating income was $2.3 million for the 2019 period, reflecting an adjusted operating
ratio of 97.2%, compared to an adjusted operating loss of $0.6 million and an adjusted operating ratio of 100.8% for the comparable 2018 period. This represents an improvement of $2.1 million year-over-year in operating income and a 360 basis point improvement in operating ratio.
Trucking operations showed the following during the first quarter 2019:
| |
| • | Base revenue per available tractor per week increased $129 per week, or 4.0%, when compared to the first quarter of 2018, and decreased $72 per week, or 2.1% sequentially, primarily due to a seasonally robust 4th quarter freight environment and a seasonally slower 1st quarter freight environment. |
| |
| • | Base revenue per loaded mile increased 11.7% to $2.244 for first quarter 2019 from $2.009 in first quarter 2018, and decreased $0.117, or 5.0% sequentially., in line with seasonal norms. |
| |
| • | Loaded miles per available tractor per week decreased 112 miles, or 6.9%, when compared to the first quarter of 2018, but increased sequentially by 44 miles per tractor, or 3.0%. Deadhead percentage for first quarter 2019 increased 70 basis points year-over-year, but improved 200 points sequentially. |
| |
| • | The average seated tractor count for the first quarter of 2019 was 1,767, which represented a 15.2% increase compared to our first quarter 2018 average of 1,534, and a 2 tractor increase sequentially over the fourth quarter 2018 average of 1,765. Average unseated tractor percentage for first quarter 2019 was 7.8% compared to 5.3% for the first quarter of 2018 and increased 150 basis points sequentially. These changes were primarily related to the increasingly challenging driver recruiting environment, combined with the OEM equipment delays late last year. |
USAT Logistics: Operating revenue (before intersegment eliminations) was $41.4 million for the first quarter of 2019, a decrease of $5.3 million, or 11.4% year-over-year. Operating income decreased $0.5 million, or 19.0% year-over-year. We continue to deepen carrier and customer relationships regardless of market dynamics.
| |
| • | Gross margin dollars decreased 2.5%, or $0.2 million year-over-year, to $7.7 million for the first quarter 2019, and increased 18.3%, or $1.2 million sequentially. |

(a) About Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to our GAAP results, this press release also includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, as defined by the SEC. The terms base revenue, “Net Debt”, “EBITDAR”, “Adjusted EBITDAR”, “Adjusted operating ratio”, “Adjusted operating income (loss)", "Adjusted net income (loss)”, and “Adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share”, as we define them, are not presented in accordance with GAAP.
The Company defines Net Debt as total debt, including insurance premium financing and lease liabilities, net of cash. The Company defines EBITDAR as net income (loss), plus interest expense net of interest income, provision for income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and rent. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAR as EBITDAR plus non-cash equity compensation, restructuring, impairment and other costs, severance costs included in salaries, wages and employee benefits, and transaction costs related to acquisition. Adjusted operating ratio is calculated as operating expenses excluding restructuring, impairment and other costs, severance costs included in salaries, wages and employee benefits and amortization of acquisition related intangibles, net of fuel surcharge revenue, as a percentage of operating revenue, excluding fuel surcharge revenue. Adjusted operating income (loss) is defined as operating income (loss) excluding restructuring, impairment and other costs, severance costs included in salaries, wages and employee benefits, amortization of acquisition related intangibles, and transaction costs related to acquisition. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) excluding restructuring, impairment and other costs, severance costs included in salaries, wages and employee benefits, amortization of acquisition related intangibles, and transaction costs related to acquisition. Adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share is defined as earnings (loss) per diluted share plus the per-share impact of restructuring, impairment and other costs, severance costs included in salaries, wages and employee benefits, and transaction costs related to acquisition, plus or minus the per share tax impact of those
adjustments using a statutory income tax rate. The per-share impact of each item is determined by dividing it by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding. These financial measures supplement our GAAP results in evaluating certain aspects of our business. We believe that using these measures improves comparability in analyzing our performance because they remove the impact of items from our operating results that, in our opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Management and the board of directors focus on Net Debt, EBITDAR, Adjusted EBITDAR, Adjusted operating ratio, Adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss), and Adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share as key measures of our performance, all of which are reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measures and further discussed below. We believe our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors and other users because it provides them the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our core operating performance.
Net Debt, EBITDAR, Adjusted EBITDAR, Adjusted operating ratio, Adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss), and Adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share are not substitutes for their comparable GAAP financial measures, such as total debt, net income, cash flows from operating activities, operating ratio, diluted earnings per share, or other measures prescribed by GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures. Although we believe that they improve comparability in analyzing our period to period performance, they could limit comparability to other companies in our industry if those companies define these measures differently. Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered measures of income generated by our business or discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis.
Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G and Regulation S-K, we have provided reconciliations of EBITDAR, Adjusted EBITDAR, Adjusted operating ratio, Adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss), and Adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share to the most comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release.
