DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | USA Truck Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 . Description of business USA Truck Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiaries (together, the āCompanyā), is headquartered in Van Buren, Arkansas. The Company transports freight throughout the contiguous United States, into and out of portions of Canada, and into and out of Mexico by offering through-trailer service from our terminal in Laredo, Texas. The Company has two reportable segments: (i) Trucking, consisting of the Companyās truckload and dedicated freight service offerings, and (ii) USAT Logistics, consisting of the Companyās freight brokerage, logistics, and rail intermodal service offerings. Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of USA Truck Inc., and present our financial position as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the results of our operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the years ended 2020 and 2019. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (āGAAPā), and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include USA Truck Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries: International Freight Services, Inc. (āIFSā), a Delaware corporation; Skyraider Risk Retention Group Inc. (āSRRGā), a South Carolina corporation; Davis Transfer Company Inc. (āDTCā), a Georgia corporation; Davis Transfer Logistics Inc. (āDTLā), a Georgia corporation; and B & G Leasing, L.L.C. (āB & Gā), a Georgia limited liability company. Collectively, DTC, DTL and B&G comprise āDavis Transfer Companyā. References in this report to āit,ā āwe,ā āus,ā āour,ā or the āCompany,ā and similar expressions refer to USA Truck Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Risks and uncertainties In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (āCOVID-19ā) a global pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. The rapid spread of the pandemic and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had an increasingly negative impact on the global economy. In view of the rapidly changing business environment, unprecedented market volatility and heightened degree of uncertainty resulting from COVID-19, we are currently unable to fully determine its future impact on our business. We continue to monitor the progression of the pandemic, further government responses and development of treatments and vaccines and the resulting potential effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. These events could have an impact in future periods on certain estimates used in the preparation of our financial results, including, but not limited to impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets and other long-lived assets, income tax provision and recoverability of certain receivables. Should the pandemic continue for an even further extended period of time, the impact on our operations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. ā Change in estimate The Company reviews the estimated useful lives and salvage values of its fixed assets on an ongoing basis, based upon, among other things, our experience with similar assets, conditions in the used revenue equipment market, and prevailing industry practice. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company lowered the salvage value of its tractor fleet from 30% to 25% to better reflect current estimates of the value of such equipment upon its retirement. This change is being accounted for as a change in estimate. During 2020, this change in estimate resulted in an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $2.7 million. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired. We had restricted cash of $0.2 million at December 31, 2020 and no restricted cash at December 31, 2019. This cash is restricted for the purpose of paying potential insurance claims in our wholly owned captive insurance company and is included in the āCash and restricted cashā line item in our consolidated balance sheet. Bank overdrafts The Company classifies bank overdrafts in current liabilities as accounts payable and does not offset other positive bank account balances located at the same or other financial institutions. Bank overdrafts generally represent checks written that have not yet cleared the Companyās bank accounts. The majority of the Companyās bank accounts are zero balance accounts that are funded at the time items clear against the account by drawings against a line of credit; therefore, the outstanding checks represent bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 were approximately $5.2 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Allowance for doubtful accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is managementās estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Companyās existing accounts receivable. Management reviews the financial condition of customers for granting credit and determines the allowance based on analysis of individual customersā financial condition, historical write-off experience and national economic conditions. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts quarterly. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. The following table provides a summary of the activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Year Ended December 31, ā 2020 2019 ā ā (in thousands) Balance at beginning of year ā $ 369 ā $ 575 Provision for doubtful accounts ā 535 ā (145) Uncollectible accounts written off, net of recovery ā (287) ā (61) Balance at end of year ā $ 617 ā $ 369 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Assets held for sale When we plan to dispose of property by sale, the asset is carried in the financial statements at the lower of the carrying amount or estimated fair value, less cost to sell, and is reclassified to Assets held for sale. Additionally, after such reclassification, there is no further depreciation taken on the asset. In order for an asset to be classified as held for sale, management must approve and commit to a formal plan of disposition, the sale must be anticipated during the ensuing year, the asset must be actively marketed, available for immediate sale, and meet certain other specified criteria. ā Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated for impairment periodically. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The reporting unit or units used to evaluate and measure goodwill for impairment are determined primarily from the manner in which the business is managed or operated. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a component that is one level below an operating segment. There were no impairments of goodwill during 2020 or 2019. Intangibles Intangibles include a trade name, non-compete agreement and customer relationships. The non-compete agreement, and customer relationships are subject to amortization and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We periodically evaluate amortizable intangible assets for impairment upon occurrence of events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of intangible assets may not be recoverable (see Note 4 ā Intangible Assets). Treasury stock The Company uses the cost method to record treasury stock purchases whereby the entire cost of the acquired shares of our common stock is recorded as treasury stock (at cost). When the Company subsequently reissues these shares, proceeds in excess of cost upon the issuance of treasury shares are credited to additional paid in capital, while any deficiency is charged to additional paid in capital. The Company recorded charges to additional paid in capital of $4.3 million and $4.8 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During both 2020 and 2019, these charges were for the issuance of shares awarded as equity grants. Earnings (loss) per share data The Company calculates basic earnings (loss) per share based on the weighted average number of its common shares outstanding for the applicable period. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share based on the weighted average number of its common shares outstanding for the period plus all potentially dilutive securities using the treasury stock method, whereby the Company assumes that all such shares are converted into common shares at the beginning of the period, if deemed to be dilutive. If the Company incurs a loss from continuing operations, the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. Performance shares are excluded from contingent shares for purposes of calculating diluted weighted average shares until the performance measure criteria is probable and shares are likely to be issued. Dividend policy The Company has not paid any dividends on its common stock to date, and does not anticipate paying any dividends at the present time. The Company currently intends to retain all of its earnings, if any, for use in the expansion and development of its business and reduction of debt. In the event the financial covenant is applicable under the Companyās Credit Facility, restrictions are placed on our ability to pay dividends. Future payments of dividends will depend upon the Companyās financial condition, results of operations, capital commitments, restrictions under then-existing agreements, legal requirements, and other factors the Company deems relevant. Inventories Inventories consist of tires and parts, and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in first-out basis. ā Property and equipment Property and equipment is capitalized in accordance with the Companyās asset capitalization policy. The capitalized property is depreciated by the straight-line method using the following estimated useful lives: structures ā 15 years to 40 years; revenue equipment ā 5 3 Leases The Company leases property and equipment under finance and operating leases. The Company has operating and finance leases for revenue equipment, real estate, information technology equipment (primarily servers and copiers), and various other equipment used in operating our business. Certain leases for revenue equipment and information technology include options to purchase or extend, guarantee residual values, or early termination rights. Determining the lease term and amount of lease payments to include in the calculation of the right-of-use (āROUā) asset and lease liability for leases containing options requires the use of judgment to determine whether the exercise of an option or feature is reasonably certain, and if the optional period and payments should be included in the calculation of the associated ROU asset and liability. In making this determination, we consider all relevant economic factors that would compel us to exercise or not exercise an option or feature. We recognize a ROU asset and lease liability for operating leases that meet the criteria of Accounting Standards Codification 842. Some of our leases contain both lease and non-lease components, which we have elected to treat as a single lease component. We have also elected not to recognize in our consolidated balance sheets leases that have an original lease term, including reasonably certain renewal or purchase options, of twelve months or less for all classes of underlying assets. Lease costs for short-term leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments; however, the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for all of our leases. In such cases, we use an estimate of our incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. Depreciable lives and salvage value of assets; valuation of long-lived assets We review the appropriateness of depreciable lives and salvage values for each category of property and equipment. These studies utilize models, which take into account actual usage, physical wear and tear, and replacement history to calculate remaining life of our asset base. We also make assumptions regarding future conditions in determining potential salvage values. These assumptions impact the amount of depreciation expense recognized in the period and any gain or loss once the asset is disposed. Actual disposition values may be greater or less than expected due to the length of time before disposition. We review property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We evaluate recoverability of assets to be held and used by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets, less cost to sell. The Company performed the impairment analysis of the carrying value of its fleet, which is the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company has analyzed filing positions in its federal and applicable state tax returns in all open tax years. The Companyās policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as operating expenses. The Company analyzes its tax positions on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions or associated interest or penalties on uncertain tax positions have been recorded. Claims accruals The primary claims arising against the Company consist of cargo loss and damage, liability, personal injury, property damage, workersā compensation, and employee medical expenses. The Companyās self-insurance retention levels are $0.05 million for cargo loss and damage claims per occurrence, $2.0 million for bodily injury and property damage claims per occurrence, and $0.5 million for workersā compensation claims per occurrence. Prior to the Companyās most recent insurance renewal on October 1, 2020, the Companyās self-insurance retention level was $1.0 million for bodily injury and property damage claims per occurrence, but through the formation of SRRG the Company retained the exposure from $1.0 million to $2.0 million. The Company utilizes an actuarial specialist to provide an independent assessment of internally developed accident and workers' compensation accruals twice a year. If adjustments to previously established accruals are required, such amounts are included in operating expenses in the current period. For medical benefits, the Company self-insures up to $0.25 million per plan participant per year with an aggregate claim exposure limit determined by the Companyās year-to-date claims experience and its number of covered team members. The Company has exposure to fluctuations in the frequency and severity of claims and to variations between its estimated and actual ultimate payouts up to the Companyās self-insured retention level. Estimates require judgments concerning the nature and severity of the claim, as well as other factors. Actual settlement of the self-insured claim liabilities could differ from managementās initial assessment due to uncertainties and fact development. Restricted stock Restricted stock cannot be sold by the recipient until its restrictions have lapsed. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to these awards over the vesting periods based on the closing price of the Companyās common stock on the grant dates. If these awards contain performance criteria the grant date fair value is set assuming performance at target, which is the expected level of achievement, and management periodically reviews actual performance against the criteria and adjusts compensation expense accordingly. These shares are considered issued and outstanding under the terms of the respective restricted stock agreements. Revenue recognition Revenue is measured based upon consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when contractual performance obligations are satisfied by transferring the benefit of the service to our customer. The benefit is transferred to the customer as the service is being provided and revenue is recognized accordingly via time based metrics. A corresponding contract asset of $1.1 million and $0.9 million was recorded in the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, in the āAccounts receivableā line item. The Company is entitled to receive payment as it satisfies performance obligations with customers. The amount of remaining performance obligations relating to loads in process at 11:59 pm as of the end of each reporting period was deemed to be immaterial. ā Disaggregation of revenue The Companyās revenue types are freight revenue, fuel surcharge and accessorial.

To the extent rail intermodal or other USAT Logistics operations require the use of Company-owned assets, they are obtained from the Companyās Trucking segment on an as-needed basis. Depreciation and amortization expense is allocated to USAT Logistics based on the Company-owned assets specifically utilized to generate USAT Logistics revenue. All intercompany transactions between segments reflect rates similar to those that would be negotiated with independent third parties. All other expenses for USAT Logistics are specifically identifiable direct costs or are allocated to USAT Logistics based on relevant cost drivers, as determined by management. Customer Concentration Services provided to the Companyās largest customer generated approximately 11% and 12% of consolidated operating revenue for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and operating revenue generated by this customer is reported in both the Trucking and USAT Logistics operating segments.

The Credit Facility replaced the Companyās previous five year, $170.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility dated February 15, 2015. On April 7, 2020, the Company, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, provided notice to the Agent that effective as of April 20, 2020, the Company was permanently reducing the revolving credit commitment under the Credit Agreement by $55.0 million such that the revolving credit commitment is now $170.0 million. The reduction in the revolving credit commitment will also reduce the future fees paid by the Company in connection with such commitment. The Credit Facility is structured as a $170.0 million revolving credit facility, with an accordion feature that, so long as no event of default exists, allows the Company to request an increase in the revolving credit facility of up to $75.0 million, exercisable in increments of at least $20.0 million. The Credit Facility is a five year facility scheduled to terminate on January 31, 2024. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are classified as either ābase rate loansā or āLIBOR loansā. Base rate loans accrue interest at a base rate equal to the Agentās prime rate plus an applicable margin adjusted quarterly between 0.25% and 0.75% based on the Companyās consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. LIBOR loans accrue interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (āLIBORā) plus an applicable margin adjusted quarterly between 1.25% and 1.75% based on the Companyās consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. The Credit Facility includes, within its $170.0 million revolving credit facility, a letter of credit sub-facility in an aggregate amount of $15.0 million and a swingline sub-facility (the āSwinglineā) in an aggregate amount of $25.0 million. An unused line fee of 0.25% is applied to the average daily amount by which the lendersā aggregate revolving commitments exceed the outstanding principal amount of revolver loans and the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is secured by a pledge of substantially all of the Companyās assets, except for any real estate or revenue equipment financed outside the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base limited to the lesser of (A) $170.0 million; or (B) the sum of (i) 90.0% of eligible investment grade accounts receivable (reduced to 85.0% in certain situations), plus (ii) 85.0% of eligible non-investment grade accounts receivable, plus (iii) the lesser of (a) 85.0% of eligible unbilled accounts receivable and (b) $10.0 million, plus (iv) the product of 85.0% multiplied by the net orderly liquidation value percentage applied to the net book value of eligible revenue equipment, plus (v) 85.0% multiplied by the net book value of otherwise eligible newly acquired revenue equipment that has not yet been subject to an appraisal. The borrowing base is reduced by an availability reserve, including reserves based on dilution and certain other customary reserves. The Credit Facility contains a single financial covenant, which requires a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0 that is triggered in the event excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below 10.0% of the lendersā total commitments. Also, certain restrictions regarding the Companyās ability to pay dividends, make certain investments, prepay certain indebtedness, execute share repurchase programs and enter into certain acquisitions and hedging arrangements are triggered in the event excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below 20.0% of the lendersā total commitments. The Company had approximately $0.1 million in overnight borrowings under the Swingline as of December 31, 2020. The average interest rate for all borrowings made under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2020 was 2.12%. As debt is repriced on a monthly basis, the borrowings under the Credit Facility approximate fair value. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $7.9 million in letters of credit outstanding and had $56.2 million available to borrow under the Credit Facility taking into account borrowing base availability. Sale-leaseback transactions In July 2019, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction whereby it sold tractors for approximately $2.3 million and concurrently entered into a finance lease agreement for the sold tractors with a five year term. Under the lease agreement, the Company paid an initial monthly payment of approximately $0.03 million. At the end of the lease, the Company has the option to purchase the tractors. This transaction does not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting due to the option to repurchase the tractors and is therefore treated as a financing obligation. In April 2019, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction whereby it sold tractors for approximately $10.5 million and concurrently entered into a finance lease agreement for the sold tractors with a five year term. Under the lease agreement, the Company paid an initial monthly payment of approximately $0.1 million. At the end of the lease, the Company has the option to purchase the tractors for the greater of fair market value or 32.5% of the original cost. This transaction does not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting due to the option to repurchase the tractors and is therefore treated as a financing obligation. Insurance premium financing In October 2020, the Company entered into a short-term agreement to finance approximately $5.1 million with a third-party financing company for a portion of the Companyās annual insurance premiums. In October 2019, the Company entered into a short-term agreement to finance approximately $4.5 million with a third-party financing company for a portion of the Companyās annual insurance premiums. During the third quarter of 2020, this note was paid in full. |

FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES | ā ā NOTE 8. FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits reflect managementās best estimate of current and future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous state jurisdictions. Significant judgments and estimates are required in the determination of the consolidated income tax expense. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, which will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Significant components of the Companyās deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Year Ended December 31, ā 2020 2019 Deferred tax assets: ā (in thousands) Operating lease liabilities ā $ 7,170 ā $ 2,981 Accrued expenses not deductible until paid ā ā 6,105 ā ā 5,215 Goodwill and intangible assets ā 1,264 ā 1,426 Finance lease obligations ā ā 794 ā ā 287 Net operating loss carry forwards ā 298 ā 1,643 Revenue recognition ā 238 ā 201 Allowance for doubtful accounts ā 225 ā 168 Equity incentive compensation ā 204 ā 188 Other ā 5 ā 60 Total deferred tax assets ā $ 16,303 ā $ 12,169 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Deferred tax liabilitie ā ā Tax over book depreciation ā $ (30,315) ā $ (30,941) Operating leases - right of use assets ā ā (7,075) ā ā (2,959) Prepaid expenses deductible when paid ā (2,327) ā (2,095) Other ā ā ā ā ā (191) Total deferred tax liabilities ā (39,717) ā (36,186) Net deferred tax liabilities ā $ (23,414) ā $ (24,017) ā The Company has certain state net operating loss carryovers of approximately $0.3 million that expire in varying years through 2040. The Company expects to fully utilize its tax attributes in future years before they expire.

Due to the partially nondeductible effect of per diem pay, the Companyās tax rate will change based on fluctuations in earnings (losses) and in the number of drivers who elect to receive this pay structure. Generally, as pretax income or loss increases, the impact of the driver per diem program on our effective tax rate decreases, because aggregate per diem pay becomes smaller in relation to pretax income or loss, while in periods where earnings are at or near breakeven the impact of the per diem program on our effective tax rate can be significant. During 2020, the Company benefited from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, which allowed a five year federal net operating loss carryback for federal income tax purposes to tax periods where the federal rate was 35%. Additionally, during 2020 and 2019 the Companyās tax rate was affected by vesting of equity-based compensation at a lower stock price than the price at which it was granted, as well as non-deductible officer compensation, resulting in an increase to tax expense and impacting the effective tax rate. |

EQUITY COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | NOTE 9. EQUITY COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS The Company adopted the 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the āIncentive Planā) in May 2014. The Incentive Plan replaced the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and provided for the granting of up to 500,000 shares of common stock through equity-based awards to directors, officers and other key employees and consultants. The First Amendment to the Incentive Plan was adopted in May 2017, which, among other things, increased the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Incentive Plan by an additional 500,000 shares. The Second Amendment to the Incentive Plan was adopted in May 2019, which, among other things, increased the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Incentive Plan by an additional 500,000 shares. As of December 31, 2020, 513,343 shares remain available under the Incentive Plan for the issuance of future equity-based compensation awards.

As of December 31, 2020 approximately $0.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years. Restricted stock awards Restricted stock awards are shares of the Companyās common stock that are granted subject to defined restrictions.

Employee benefit plans The Company sponsors the USA Truck, Inc. Employeesā Investment Plan, a tax deferred savings plan under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code that covers substantially all team members. Employees can contribute up to any percentage of their compensation, subject to statutory limits, with the Company matching 50% of the first 4% of compensation contributed by each employee. Employeesā rights to employer contributions vest after two years from their date of employment. The Companyās matching contributions to the plan were approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. |

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS | NOTE 11. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is party to routine litigation incidental to its business, primarily involving claims for personal injury and property damage incurred in the transportation of freight. The Company maintains insurance to cover liabilities in excess of certain self-insured retention levels. Though management believes these claims to be immaterial to the Companyās long-term financial position, adverse results of one or more of these claims could have a material adverse effect on the Companyās financial position, results of operations or cash flows in any given reporting period. |

LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENT | ā ā NOTE 12. LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENT During 2020, the Company reviewed the values of its assets held for sale and determined a subset of older model year tractors required an impairment of approximately $0.5 million. In order to determine the fair values of the tractors, auction data was used from recent sales of similar tractors which is a Level 2 fair value measurement under the fair value hierarchy. During 2020, in response to the closure of our Van Buren, Arkansas terminal, the Company contracted with a third-party to appraise the terminal and the owned lands surrounding it. As a result of the appraisal, an impairment was recorded for approximately $0.1 million for a parcel of land that had a book value in excess of its fair value. The appraisal report is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement under the fair value hierarchy. During 2019, the Company reviewed the values of its assets held for sale and determined subsets of tractors that the Company had recently experienced losses on disposal of similar tractors required an impairment of approximately $0.8 million. The fair value was determined using quotes from third parties for the purchase of the tractors which is a Level 1 fair value measurement under the fair value hierarchy. |

Description of business | Description of business USA Truck Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiaries (together, the āCompanyā), is headquartered in Van Buren, Arkansas. The Company transports freight throughout the contiguous United States, into and out of portions of Canada, and into and out of Mexico by offering through-trailer service from our terminal in Laredo, Texas. The Company has two reportable segments: (i) Trucking, consisting of the Companyās truckload and dedicated freight service offerings, and (ii) USAT Logistics, consisting of the Companyās freight brokerage, logistics, and rail intermodal service offerings. |
Basis of presentation | Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of USA Truck Inc., and present our financial position as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the results of our operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the years ended 2020 and 2019. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (āGAAPā), and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include USA Truck Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries: International Freight Services, Inc. (āIFSā), a Delaware corporation; Skyraider Risk Retention Group Inc. (āSRRGā), a South Carolina corporation; Davis Transfer Company Inc. (āDTCā), a Georgia corporation; Davis Transfer Logistics Inc. (āDTLā), a Georgia corporation; and B & G Leasing, L.L.C. (āB & Gā), a Georgia limited liability company. Collectively, DTC, DTL and B&G comprise āDavis Transfer Companyā. References in this report to āit,ā āwe,ā āus,ā āour,ā or the āCompany,ā and similar expressions refer to USA Truck Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. |
Risks and uncertainties - COVID-19 | Risks and uncertainties In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (āCOVID-19ā) a global pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. The rapid spread of the pandemic and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had an increasingly negative impact on the global economy. In view of the rapidly changing business environment, unprecedented market volatility and heightened degree of uncertainty resulting from COVID-19, we are currently unable to fully determine its future impact on our business. We continue to monitor the progression of the pandemic, further government responses and development of treatments and vaccines and the resulting potential effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. These events could have an impact in future periods on certain estimates used in the preparation of our financial results, including, but not limited to impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets and other long-lived assets, income tax provision and recoverability of certain receivables. Should the pandemic continue for an even further extended period of time, the impact on our operations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. |
Use of estimates | Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. |
Change in estimate | Change in estimate The Company reviews the estimated useful lives and salvage values of its fixed assets on an ongoing basis, based upon, among other things, our experience with similar assets, conditions in the used revenue equipment market, and prevailing industry practice. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company lowered the salvage value of its tractor fleet from 30% to 25% to better reflect current estimates of the value of such equipment upon its retirement. This change is being accounted for as a change in estimate. During 2020, this change in estimate resulted in an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $2.7 million. |
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired. We had restricted cash of $0.2 million at December 31, 2020 and no restricted cash at December 31, 2019. This cash is restricted for the purpose of paying potential insurance claims in our wholly owned captive insurance company and is included in the āCash and restricted cashā line item in our consolidated balance sheet. |
Bank overdrafts | Bank overdrafts The Company classifies bank overdrafts in current liabilities as accounts payable and does not offset other positive bank account balances located at the same or other financial institutions. Bank overdrafts generally represent checks written that have not yet cleared the Companyās bank accounts. The majority of the Companyās bank accounts are zero balance accounts that are funded at the time items clear against the account by drawings against a line of credit; therefore, the outstanding checks represent bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 were approximately $5.2 million and $2.1 million, respectively. |
Allowance for doubtful accounts | Allowance for doubtful accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is managementās estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Companyās existing accounts receivable. Management reviews the financial condition of customers for granting credit and determines the allowance based on analysis of individual customersā financial condition, historical write-off experience and national economic conditions. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts quarterly. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. The following table provides a summary of the activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Year Ended December 31, ā 2020 2019 ā ā (in thousands) Balance at beginning of year ā $ 369 ā $ 575 Provision for doubtful accounts ā 535 ā (145) Uncollectible accounts written off, net of recovery ā (287) ā (61) Balance at end of year ā $ 617 ā $ 369 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā |
Assets held for sale | Assets held for sale When we plan to dispose of property by sale, the asset is carried in the financial statements at the lower of the carrying amount or estimated fair value, less cost to sell, and is reclassified to Assets held for sale. Additionally, after such reclassification, there is no further depreciation taken on the asset. In order for an asset to be classified as held for sale, management must approve and commit to a formal plan of disposition, the sale must be anticipated during the ensuing year, the asset must be actively marketed, available for immediate sale, and meet certain other specified criteria. |
Goodwill | ā Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated for impairment periodically. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The reporting unit or units used to evaluate and measure goodwill for impairment are determined primarily from the manner in which the business is managed or operated. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a component that is one level below an operating segment. There were no impairments of goodwill during 2020 or 2019. |
Intangibles | Intangibles Intangibles include a trade name, non-compete agreement and customer relationships. The non-compete agreement, and customer relationships are subject to amortization and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We periodically evaluate amortizable intangible assets for impairment upon occurrence of events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of intangible assets may not be recoverable (see Note 4 ā Intangible Assets). |
Treasury stock | Treasury stock The Company uses the cost method to record treasury stock purchases whereby the entire cost of the acquired shares of our common stock is recorded as treasury stock (at cost). When the Company subsequently reissues these shares, proceeds in excess of cost upon the issuance of treasury shares are credited to additional paid in capital, while any deficiency is charged to additional paid in capital. The Company recorded charges to additional paid in capital of $4.3 million and $4.8 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During both 2020 and 2019, these charges were for the issuance of shares awarded as equity grants. |
Earnings (loss) per share data | Earnings (loss) per share data The Company calculates basic earnings (loss) per share based on the weighted average number of its common shares outstanding for the applicable period. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share based on the weighted average number of its common shares outstanding for the period plus all potentially dilutive securities using the treasury stock method, whereby the Company assumes that all such shares are converted into common shares at the beginning of the period, if deemed to be dilutive. If the Company incurs a loss from continuing operations, the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. Performance shares are excluded from contingent shares for purposes of calculating diluted weighted average shares until the performance measure criteria is probable and shares are likely to be issued. |
Dividend policy | Dividend policy The Company has not paid any dividends on its common stock to date, and does not anticipate paying any dividends at the present time. The Company currently intends to retain all of its earnings, if any, for use in the expansion and development of its business and reduction of debt. In the event the financial covenant is applicable under the Companyās Credit Facility, restrictions are placed on our ability to pay dividends. Future payments of dividends will depend upon the Companyās financial condition, results of operations, capital commitments, restrictions under then-existing agreements, legal requirements, and other factors the Company deems relevant. |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories consist of tires and parts, and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in first-out basis. |
Property and equipment | Property and equipment Property and equipment is capitalized in accordance with the Companyās asset capitalization policy. The capitalized property is depreciated by the straight-line method using the following estimated useful lives: structures ā 15 years to 40 years; revenue equipment ā 5 3 |
Leases | Leases The Company leases property and equipment under finance and operating leases. The Company has operating and finance leases for revenue equipment, real estate, information technology equipment (primarily servers and copiers), and various other equipment used in operating our business. Certain leases for revenue equipment and information technology include options to purchase or extend, guarantee residual values, or early termination rights. Determining the lease term and amount of lease payments to include in the calculation of the right-of-use (āROUā) asset and lease liability for leases containing options requires the use of judgment to determine whether the exercise of an option or feature is reasonably certain, and if the optional period and payments should be included in the calculation of the associated ROU asset and liability. In making this determination, we consider all relevant economic factors that would compel us to exercise or not exercise an option or feature. We recognize a ROU asset and lease liability for operating leases that meet the criteria of Accounting Standards Codification 842. Some of our leases contain both lease and non-lease components, which we have elected to treat as a single lease component. We have also elected not to recognize in our consolidated balance sheets leases that have an original lease term, including reasonably certain renewal or purchase options, of twelve months or less for all classes of underlying assets. Lease costs for short-term leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments; however, the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for all of our leases. In such cases, we use an estimate of our incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. |
Depreciable lives and salvage value of assets; valuation of long-lived assets | Depreciable lives and salvage value of assets; valuation of long-lived assets We review the appropriateness of depreciable lives and salvage values for each category of property and equipment. These studies utilize models, which take into account actual usage, physical wear and tear, and replacement history to calculate remaining life of our asset base. We also make assumptions regarding future conditions in determining potential salvage values. These assumptions impact the amount of depreciation expense recognized in the period and any gain or loss once the asset is disposed. Actual disposition values may be greater or less than expected due to the length of time before disposition. We review property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We evaluate recoverability of assets to be held and used by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets, less cost to sell. The Company performed the impairment analysis of the carrying value of its fleet, which is the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. |
Income taxes | Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company has analyzed filing positions in its federal and applicable state tax returns in all open tax years. The Companyās policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as operating expenses. The Company analyzes its tax positions on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions or associated interest or penalties on uncertain tax positions have been recorded. |
Claims accruals | Claims accruals The primary claims arising against the Company consist of cargo loss and damage, liability, personal injury, property damage, workersā compensation, and employee medical expenses. The Companyās self-insurance retention levels are $0.05 million for cargo loss and damage claims per occurrence, $2.0 million for bodily injury and property damage claims per occurrence, and $0.5 million for workersā compensation claims per occurrence. Prior to the Companyās most recent insurance renewal on October 1, 2020, the Companyās self-insurance retention level was $1.0 million for bodily injury and property damage claims per occurrence, but through the formation of SRRG the Company retained the exposure from $1.0 million to $2.0 million. The Company utilizes an actuarial specialist to provide an independent assessment of internally developed accident and workers' compensation accruals twice a year. If adjustments to previously established accruals are required, such amounts are included in operating expenses in the current period. For medical benefits, the Company self-insures up to $0.25 million per plan participant per year with an aggregate claim exposure limit determined by the Companyās year-to-date claims experience and its number of covered team members. The Company has exposure to fluctuations in the frequency and severity of claims and to variations between its estimated and actual ultimate payouts up to the Companyās self-insured retention level. Estimates require judgments concerning the nature and severity of the claim, as well as other factors. Actual settlement of the self-insured claim liabilities could differ from managementās initial assessment due to uncertainties and fact development. |
Restricted stock | Restricted stock Restricted stock cannot be sold by the recipient until its restrictions have lapsed. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to these awards over the vesting periods based on the closing price of the Companyās common stock on the grant dates. If these awards contain performance criteria the grant date fair value is set assuming performance at target, which is the expected level of achievement, and management periodically reviews actual performance against the criteria and adjusts compensation expense accordingly. These shares are considered issued and outstanding under the terms of the respective restricted stock agreements. |
Revenue recognition and Disaggregation of revenue | Revenue recognition Revenue is measured based upon consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when contractual performance obligations are satisfied by transferring the benefit of the service to our customer. The benefit is transferred to the customer as the service is being provided and revenue is recognized accordingly via time based metrics. A corresponding contract asset of $1.1 million and $0.9 million was recorded in the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, in the āAccounts receivableā line item. The Company is entitled to receive payment as it satisfies performance obligations with customers. The amount of remaining performance obligations relating to loads in process at 11:59 pm as of the end of each reporting period was deemed to be immaterial. ā Disaggregation of revenue The Companyās revenue types are freight revenue, fuel surcharge and accessorial. Freight revenue represents the majority of our revenue and consists of fees earned for freight transportation, excluding fuel surcharge. Fuel surcharge revenue consists of additional fees earned by the Company in connection with the performance of freight transportation services to partially or completely offset the cost of fuel. Accessorial revenue consists of ancillary services provided by the Company, including but not limited to, stop-off charges, loading and unloading charges, tractor or trailer detention charges, expedited charges and repositioning charges. These accessorial charges are recognized as revenue throughout the service provided.
