As of June 2023, approximately 82% of the Asset-Based segment’s employees were covered under the previous collective bargaining agreement, the ABF National Master Freight Agreement (the “2018 ABF NMFA”), with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (the “IBT”), which remained in effect through The major economic provisions of the 2023 ABF NMFA include wage rate increases in each year of the contract, with the initial increase effective retroactive to July 1, 2023; profit-sharing bonuses upon the Asset-Based segment’s achievement of certain annual operating ratios for any full calendar year under the contract; an additional paid holiday; two additional sick days; and a new non-CDL employee classification. The 2023 ABF NMFA and the related supplemental agreements provide for annual contribution rate increases to multiemployer health and welfare and pension funds to which ABF Freight contributed under the previous agreement. Under the 2023 ABF NMFA, the contractual wages and benefits top hourly rates are estimated to increase approximately 4.2% on a compounded annual basis through the end of the agreement. Financial Statement Presentation On February 28, 2023, the Company sold FleetNet America, Inc. (“FleetNet”), a wholly owned subsidiary and reportable operating segment of the Company, for an aggregate adjusted cash purchase price of $100.9 million, including post-closing adjustments. The sale of FleetNet was a strategic shift for the Company as it exited the fleet roadside assistance and maintenance management business; therefore, the sale was accounted for as discontinued operations. As such, historical results of FleetNet have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented, and reclassifications have been made to the prior-period financial statements to conform to the current-year presentation. Related assets and liabilities associated with FleetNet are classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The cash flows related to the discontinued operations have not been segregated and are included in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to continuing operations, including comparisons to the prior year. For more information on the Company’s discontinued operations, see Note C. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior-year presentation of other long-term liabilities to conform to the current-year presentation of the contingent consideration liability on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pertaining to interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all information or footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which have not been adjusted to reflect FleetNet as discontinued operations, and other current filings with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which are of a normal and recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual amounts may differ from those estimates. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Management believes there is no new accounting guidance issued but not yet effective that would have a material impact to the Company’s current financial statements. |

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE B – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Financial Instruments The following table presents the components of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments: June 30 December 31 2023 2022 (in thousands) Cash and cash equivalents Cash deposits (1) $ 161,176 $ 137,247 Variable rate demand notes (1)(2) 122 9,285 Money market funds (3) 25,988 11,732 Total cash and cash equivalents $ 187,286 $ 158,264 Short-term investments Certificates of deposit (1) $ 113,542 $ 88,851 U.S. Treasury securities (4) 39,574 78,811 Total short-term investments $ 153,116 $ 167,662 (1) Recorded at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. (2) Amounts may be redeemed on a daily basis with the original issuer. (3) Recorded at fair value as determined by quoted market prices (see amounts presented in the table of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value within this Note). (4) Recorded at amortized cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. U.S. Treasury securities included in short-term investments are held-to-maturity investments with maturity dates of less than one year. The Company’s long-term financial instruments are presented in the table of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value within this Note. Concentrations of Credit Risk of Financial Instruments The Company is potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk related to its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. The Company reduces credit risk by maintaining its cash deposits and short-term investments in accounts and certificates of deposit which are primarily FDIC-insured or in direct obligations of the U.S. government. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, cash deposits and short-term investments which were neither FDIC insured nor direct obligations of the U.S. government totaled $118.9 million and $87.6 million, respectively. The Company also holds money market funds, which are invested in U.S. government securities and repurchase agreements collateralized solely by U.S. government securities. Fair Value Disclosure of Financial Instruments Fair value disclosures are made in accordance with the following hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs of market data and market assumptions used to measure fair value are observable or unobservable: ● Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets. ● Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. ● Level 3 — Unobservable inputs (Company’s market assumptions) that are significant to the valuation model. Fair value and carrying value disclosures of financial instruments are presented in the following table: June 30 December 31 2023 2022 (in thousands) Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value Credit Facility (1) $ 50,000 $ 50,000 $ 50,000 $ 50,000 Notes payable (2) 182,987 178,490 214,623 207,778 New England Pension Fund withdrawal liability (3) 19,755 18,726 20,100 18,911 $ 252,742 $ 247,216 $ 284,723 $ 276,689 (1) The revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) carries a variable interest rate based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), plus a margin, priced at market for debt instruments having similar terms and collateral requirements (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). (2) Fair value of the notes payable was determined using a present value income approach based on quoted interest rates from lending institutions with which the Company would enter into similar transactions (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). (3) ABF Freight’s multiemployer pension plan obligation with the New England Teamsters and Trucking Industry Pension Fund (the “New England Pension Fund”) was restructured under a transition agreement effective on August 1, 2018, which resulted in a related withdrawal liability. The fair value of the outstanding withdrawal liability is equal to the present value of the future withdrawal liability payments, discounted at an interest rate of 5.2% and 5.3% at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, determined using the 20-year U.S. Treasury rate plus a spread (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). As of June 30, 2023, the outstanding withdrawal liability totaled $19.8 million, of which $0.7 million was recorded in accrued expenses, and the remaining portion was recorded in other long-term liabilities. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following table presents the assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis: June 30, 2023 Fair Value Measurements Using Quoted Prices Significant Significant In Active Observable Unobservable Markets Inputs Inputs Total (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) (in thousands) Assets: Money market funds (1) $ 25,988 $ 25,988 $ — $ — Equity, bond, and money market mutual funds held in trust related to the Voluntary Savings Plan (2) 4,159 4,159 — — Interest rate swap (3) 2,955 — 2,955 — $ 33,102 $ 30,147 $ 2,955 $ — Liabilities: Contingent consideration (4) 117,040 — — 117,040 $ 117,040 $ — $ — $ 117,040 December 31, 2022 Fair Value Measurements Using Quoted Prices Significant Significant In Active Observable Unobservable Markets Inputs Inputs Total (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) (in thousands) Assets: Money market funds (1) $ 11,732 $ 11,732 $ — $ — Equity, bond, and money market mutual funds held in trust related to the Voluntary Savings Plan (2) 3,982 3,982 — — Interest rate swap (3) 3,526 — 3,526 — $ 19,240 $ 15,714 $ 3,526 $ — Liabilities: Contingent consideration (4) 112,000 — — 112,000 $ 112,000 $ — $ — $ 112,000 (1) Included in cash and cash equivalents. (2) Nonqualified deferred compensation plan investments consist of U.S. and international equity mutual funds, government and corporate bond mutual funds, and money market funds which are held in a trust with a third-party brokerage firm. Included in other long-term assets, with a corresponding liability reported within other long-term liabilities. (3) Included in other long-term assets. The fair value of the interest rate swap was determined by discounting future cash flows and receipts based on expected interest rates observed in market interest rate curves adjusted for estimated credit valuation considerations reflecting nonperformance risk of the Company and the counterparty, which are generally considered to be in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. However, the Company assessed Level 3 inputs as insignificant to the valuation at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and considers the interest rate swap valuation in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. (4) As part of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) of MoLo, executed in November 2021, certain additional cash consideration is required to be paid by the Company based on the achievement of certain incremental targets of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization for each of the years ended December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025. At 100% of the target, the cumulative additional consideration for years 2023 through 2025 would be $215.0 million, with the possible undiscounted cash consideration due ranging from a total of $95.0 million at 80% of target to $455.0 million at 300% of target, as outlined in the Merger Agreement. The estimated fair value of contingent earnout consideration is determined by assessing Level 3 inputs. The Level 3 assessments utilize a Monte Carlo simulation with inputs including scenarios of estimated revenues and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization to be achieved for the applicable performance periods, volatility factors applied to the simulations, and the discount rate applied, which was 14.2% and 14.0% as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Changes in the significant unobservable inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value at the reporting date. As of June 30, 2023, the contingent earnout consideration totaled $117.0 million, which was recorded in long-term liabilities. The increase in fair value of contingent earnout consideration as of June 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, reflects revised assumptions for business growth in 2024 and 2025, partially offset by the impact of continuing softer market conditions during 2023 and a higher discount rate at the June 30, 2023 remeasurement date. Based on the most recent remeasurement, achievement of the 2023 target is not expected; therefore, the current portion of the contingent consideration was reduced to zero as of June 30, 2023. Adjustments to the contingent earnout consideration liability are included in operating income. The following table provides the changes in fair value of the liabilities measured at fair value using inputs categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: Contingent Consideration (in thousands) Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 112,000 Change in fair value included in operating income 5,040 Balance at June 30, 2023 $ 117,040 Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis The following table provides the change in fair value of the assets measured on a nonrecurring basis using inputs categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Equity Investment (1) (in thousands) Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 25,000 Change in fair value included in operating income 3,739 Balance at June 30, 2023 $ 28,739 (1) Represents the Company’s equity investment in Phantom Auto, the leading provider of human-centered remote operation software. The equity investment is accounted for as a nonmarketable equity security without a readily determinable value using the measurement alternative, which allows for the investment to be recorded at cost, less any impairment and adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar equity security of the same issuer. The $3.7 million increase in fair value of the Company’s equity investment was measured as of April 26, 2023, based on an observable price change upon the closing of Phantom Auto’s Series B-2 funding round. The fair value of the investment was estimated using a hybrid method of the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the probability-weighted expected return method. This method produces a per-share value based on a probability-weighted scenario analysis. The scenarios reflect changes to the liquidation preferences based on the potential liquidity event. The Black-Scholes option pricing model used various inputs, including expected volatility, expected term to liquidity, risk-free rate over the expected term, breakpoints values, and liquidation preferences. |

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS | NOTE C – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On February 28, 2023, the Company sold FleetNet, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for an aggregate adjusted cash purchase price of $100.9 million, and recorded a pre-tax gain on sale of $70.2 million, or $52.3 million, net of tax. FleetNet provided roadside repair solutions and vehicle maintenance management services for commercial and private fleets through a network of third-party service providers. The sale of FleetNet allows the Company to focus on growing its continuing operations, as FleetNet was no longer core to the Company’s growth initiatives. The financial results of FleetNet have been accounted for as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The following table summarizes the financial results from discontinued operations: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30 June 30 2023 2022 2023 2022 (in thousands) Revenues $ — $ 71,237 $ 55,929 $ 138,220 Operating expenses Gain on sale of business (1) (1,132) — (70,215) — Other — 69,930 54,623 134,928 (1,132) 69,930 (15,592) 134,928 Operating income 1,132 1,307 71,521 3,292 Other income, net (2) — 9 17 17 Income from discontinued operations before income taxes 1,132 1,316 71,538 3,309 Income tax provision 289 397 18,259 829 Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 843 $ 919 $ 53,279 $ 2,480 (1) The gain recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 includes post-closing adjustments, including the resolution of certain post-close contingencies in the second quarter of 2023.

INCOME TAXES | NOTE E – INCOME TAXES The Company’s total effective tax rate was 18.8% and 22.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 23.0% and 23.6% for the same periods of 2022, including discontinued operations which are further discussed in Note C. The effective tax rate from continuing operations was 18.6% and 19.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 22.9% and 23.6% for the same periods of 2022. State tax rates vary among states and average approximately 6.0% to 6.5%, although some state rates are higher, and a small number of states do not impose an income tax. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the difference between the Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations and the federal statutory rate resulted from state income taxes, nondeductible expenses, changes in the cash surrender value of life insurance, the federal research and development tax credit, changes in tax valuation allowances, and the tax benefit from the vesting of stock awards. The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, were also impacted by the reinstatement of the federal alternative fuel tax credit. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s deferred tax liabilities, which will reverse in future years, exceeded the deferred tax assets. The Company evaluated the total deferred tax assets at June 30, 2023, and concluded that, other than for certain deferred tax assets related to foreign and state tax credit carryforwards and state net operating losses, the assets did not exceed the amount for which realization is more likely than not. In making this determination, the Company considered the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, future taxable income, and tax planning strategies. Valuation allowances for deferred tax assets totaled $1.8 million and $1.7 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company paid federal, state, and foreign income taxes of $77.8 million and $56.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company received refunds of federal and state income taxes that were paid in prior years of $1.7 million and $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Income tax expense reflected in discontinued operations is $0.3 million, or an effective tax rate of 25.5%, and $18.3 million, or an effective tax rate of 25.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, which primarily consisted of federal and state income taxes on the gain on the sale of FleetNet. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, income tax expense reflected in discontinued operations is $0.4 million, or an effective tax rate of 30.2%, and $0.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 25.1%, respectively. |

LONG-TERM DEBT AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS | |
LONG-TERM DEBT AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS | NOTE G – LONG-TERM DEBT AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS Long-Term Debt Obligations Long-term debt consisted of borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility, which is further described in Financing Arrangements within this Note, and notes payable related to the financing of revenue equipment (tractors and trailers used primarily in Asset-Based segment operations), certain other equipment, and software as follows: June 30 December 31 2023 2022 (in thousands) Credit Facility (interest rate of 6.3% (1) $ 50,000 $ 50,000 Notes payable (weighted-average interest rate of 3.4% at June 30, 2023) 182,987 214,623 232,987 264,623 Less current portion 64,882 66,252 Long-term debt, less current portion $ 168,105 $ 198,371 (1) The interest rate swap mitigates interest rate risk by effectively converting the $50.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility from variable-rate interest to fixed-rate interest with a per annum rate of 1.55% based on the margin of the Credit Facility as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Scheduled maturities of long-term debt obligations as of June 30, 2023, were as follows: Credit Notes Total Facility (1) Payable (in thousands) Due in one year or less $ 73,463 $ 3,296 $ 70,167 Due after one year through two years 57,823 2,762 55,061 Due after two years through three years 39,963 2,392 37,571 Due after three years through four years 27,800 2,246 25,554 Due after four years through five years 56,895 50,593 6,302 Total payments 255,944 61,289 194,655 Less amounts representing interest 22,957 11,289 11,668 Long-term debt $ 232,987 $ 50,000 $ 182,987 (1) The future interest payments included in the scheduled maturities due are calculated using variable interest rates based on the SOFR swap curve, plus the anticipated applicable margin, exclusive of payments on the interest rate swap. Assets securing notes payable were included in property, plant and equipment as follows: June 30 December 31 2023 2022 (in thousands) Revenue equipment $ 305,601 $ 294,700 Service, office, and other equipment 39,121 41,522 Total assets securing notes payable 344,722 336,222 Less accumulated depreciation 143,087 119,244 Net assets securing notes payable $ 201,635 $ 216,978 Financing Arrangements Credit Facility As of June 30, 2023, the Company has a revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) under its Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), with an initial maximum credit amount of up to $250.0 million, including a swing line facility in an aggregate amount of up to $40.0 million and a letter of credit sub-facility providing for the issuance of letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $20.0 million. The Company may request additional revolving commitments or incremental term loans thereunder up to an aggregate amount of $125.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain additional conditions as provided in the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had available borrowing capacity of $200.0 million under the initial maximum credit amount of the Credit Facility. Principal payments under the Credit Facility are due upon maturity of the facility on October 7, 2027; however, borrowings may be repaid, at the Company’s discretion, in whole or in part at any time, without penalty, subject to required notice periods and compliance with minimum prepayment amounts. In addition, the Credit Facility requires the Company to pay a fee on unused commitments. The Credit Agreement contains conditions, representations and warranties, events of default, and indemnification provisions that are customary for financings of this type, including, but not limited to, a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum adjusted leverage ratio, and limitations on incurrence of debt, investments, liens on assets, certain sale and leaseback transactions, transactions with affiliates, mergers, consolidations, and sales of assets. The Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2023. Interest Rate Swap As noted in the table above, the Company has an interest rate swap agreement with a $50.0 million notional amount, which will end on October 1, 2024. The Company received floating-rate interest amounts based on one-month SOFR in exchange for fixed-rate interest payments of 0.33% throughout the remaining term of the agreement. The fair value of the interest rate swap of $3.0 million and $3.5 million was recorded in other long-term assets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The unrealized gain or loss on the interest rate swap instrument in effect at the balance sheet date was reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, in stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and the change in the unrealized gain or loss on the interest rate swap for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was reported in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The interest rate swap is subject to certain customary provisions that could allow the counterparty to request immediate settlement of the fair value liability or asset upon violation of any or all of the provisions. The Company was in compliance with all provisions of the interest rate swap agreement at June 30, 2023. Accounts Receivable Securitization Program The Company’s accounts receivable securitization program, which matures on July 1, 2024, provides available cash proceeds of $50.0 million to be provided under the program and has an accordion feature allowing the Company to request additional borrowings up to $100.0 million, subject to certain conditions. Under this program, certain subsidiaries of the Company continuously sell a designated pool of trade accounts receivables to a wholly owned subsidiary which, in turn, may borrow funds on a revolving basis. This wholly owned consolidated subsidiary is a separate bankruptcy-remote entity, and its assets would be available only to satisfy the claims related to the lenders’ interest in the trade accounts receivables. Borrowings under the accounts receivable securitization program bear interest based upon SOFR, plus a margin, and an annual facility fee. The securitization agreement contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default that are customary for financings of this type, including a maximum adjusted leverage ratio covenant. The Company was in compliance with the covenants under the accounts receivable securitization program at June 30, 2023. The accounts receivable securitization program includes a provision under which the Company may request, and the letter of credit issuer may issue, standby letters of credit, primarily in support of workers’ compensation and third-party casualty claims liabilities in various states in which the Company is self-insured. The outstanding standby letters of credit reduce the availability of borrowings under the program. As of June 30, 2023, standby letters of credit of $10.0 million have been issued under the program, which reduced the available borrowing capacity to $40.0 million. Letter of Credit Agreements and Surety Bond Programs As of June 30, 2023, the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $10.6 million (including $10.0 million issued under the accounts receivable securitization program). The Company has programs in place with multiple surety companies for the issuance of surety bonds in support of its self-insurance program. As of June 30, 2023, surety bonds outstanding related to the self-insurance program totaled $58.8 million. Notes Payable The Company has financed the purchase of certain revenue equipment, other equipment, and software through promissory note arrangements, including $3.5 million for revenue equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of August 1, 2023, the Company financed the purchase of an additional $10.4 million of revenue equipment through promissory note arrangements. |

Treasury Stock The Company has a program to repurchase its common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions (the “share repurchase program”). The share repurchase program has no expiration date but may be terminated at any time at the Board of Directors’ discretion. Repurchases may be made using the Company’s cash reserves or other available sources. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $26.5 million available for repurchases of its common stock in total under the share repurchase program. In February 2023, the Board of Directors reauthorized the share repurchase program and increased the total amount available for purchases of the Company’s common stock under the program to $125.0 million. In March 2023, the Company entered into a 10b5-1 agreement allowing for stock repurchases during the closed trading window extending from March 16, 2023 to May 2, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 453,296 shares for an aggregate cost of $41.2 million, including 305,751 shares for an aggregate cost of $28.0 million under the 10b5-1 agreement. The Company had $83.8 million remaining under its share repurchase program as of June 30, 2023. |

OPERATING SEGMENT DATA | |
OPERATING SEGMENT DATA | NOTE J – OPERATING SEGMENT DATA The Company uses the “management approach” to determine its reportable operating segments, as well as to determine the basis of reporting the operating segment information. The management approach focuses on financial information that the Company’s management uses to make operating decisions. Management uses revenues, operating expense categories, operating ratios, operating income, and key operating statistics to evaluate performance and allocate resources to the Company’s operations. On February 28, 2023, the Company sold FleetNet, a wholly owned subsidiary and reportable operating segment of the Company. Following the sale, FleetNet is reported as discontinued operations. As such, historical results of FleetNet have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented, and reclassifications have been made to the prior-period financial statements to conform to the current-year presentation. The Company’s reportable operating segments are impacted by seasonal fluctuations which affect tonnage and shipment levels and demand for services, as described below; therefore, operating results for the interim periods presented may not necessarily be indicative of the results for the fiscal year. Inclement weather conditions can adversely affect freight shipments and operating costs of the Asset-Based and Asset-Light segments. Shipments may decline during winter months because of post-holiday slowdowns and during summer months due to plant shutdowns affecting automotive and manufacturing customers of the Asset-Light segment; however, weather and other disruptive events can result in higher short-term demand for expedite services depending on the impact to customers' supply chains. Moving services of the Asset-Light segment are impacted by seasonal fluctuations, generally resulting in higher business levels in the second and third quarters as the demand for moving services is typically stronger in the summer months. Historically, the second and third calendar quarters of each year usually have the highest tonnage and shipment levels, while the first quarter generally has the lowest, although other factors, including the state of the U.S. and global economies; available capacity in the market; the impact of yield initiatives; and the impact of adverse external events or conditions, may influence quarterly business levels. The Company’s yield initiatives, along with increased technology-driven intelligence and visibility with respect to demand, have allowed for shipment optimization in non-peak times, reducing the Company’s susceptibility to seasonal fluctuations in recent years, including the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Company’s reportable operating segments are as follows: ● The Asset-Based segment includes the results of operations of ABF Freight System, Inc. and certain other subsidiaries. The segment operations include national, inter-regional, and regional transportation of general commodities through standard, expedited, and guaranteed LTL services. The Asset-Based segment provides services to the Asset-Light segment, including freight transportation related to certain consumer household goods self-move services. ● The Asset-Light segment includes the results of operations of the Company’s service offerings in ground truckload, expedite, dedicated, intermodal, household goods moving, managed transportation, warehousing and distribution, and international freight transportation for air, ocean, and ground. The Asset-Light segment provides services to the Asset-Based segment. The Company’s other business activities and operations that are not reportable segments include ArcBest Corporation (the parent holding company) and certain subsidiaries. Certain costs incurred by the parent holding company and the Company’s shared services subsidiary are allocated to the reportable segments. The Company eliminates intercompany transactions in consolidation. However, the information used by the Company’s management with respect to its reportable operating segments is before intersegment eliminations of revenues and expenses. Shared services represent costs incurred to support all segments, including sales, pricing, customer service, marketing, capacity sourcing functions, human resources, financial services, information technology, and other company-wide services. Certain overhead costs are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in “Other and eliminations.” Included in unallocated costs are expenses related to investor relations, legal, the Company’s Board of Directors, and certain technology investments. Shared services costs attributable to the reportable operating segments are predominantly allocated based upon estimated and planned resource utilization-related metrics, such as estimated shipment levels or number of personnel supported. The bases for such charges are modified and adjusted by management when necessary or appropriate to fairly and equitably reflect the actual incidence of cost incurred by the reportable operating segments. Management believes the methods used to allocate expenses are reasonable. Further classifications of operations or revenues by geographic location are impracticable and, therefore, are not provided. The Company’s foreign operations are not significant. The following tables reflect the Company’s reportable operating segment information from continuing operations: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30 June 30 2023 2022 2023 2022 (in thousands) REVENUES Asset-Based $ 722,015 $ 802,622 $ 1,419,832 $ 1,507,933 Asset-Light 409,816 549,655 847,908 1,144,939 Other and eliminations (28,367) (30,585) (58,182) (63,089) Total consolidated revenues $ 1,103,464 $ 1,321,692 $ 2,209,558 $ 2,589,783 OPERATING EXPENSES Asset-Based Salaries, wages, and benefits $ 344,538 $ 328,068 $ 680,143 $ 641,565 Fuel, supplies, and expenses 90,897 99,296 185,185 184,127 Operating taxes and licenses 14,094 12,823 28,073 25,316 Insurance 12,889 12,197 26,162 22,628 Communications and utilities 4,553 4,648 9,857 9,335 Depreciation and amortization 25,273 24,463 50,184 48,768 Rents and purchased transportation 101,922 121,550 192,666 224,535 Shared services 74,468 75,584 139,081 142,734 (Gain) loss on sale of property and equipment 416 (1,370) 365 (4,065) Innovative technology costs (1) 8,343 7,954 14,411 14,914 Other 1,297 753 2,909 1,386 Total Asset-Based 678,690 685,966 1,329,036 1,311,243 Asset-Light Purchased transportation 343,102 448,160 713,265 956,540 Supplies and expenses 3,348 4,263 7,420 7,529 Depreciation and amortization (2) 5,085 5,468 10,153 10,648 Shared services 48,985 57,986 100,414 108,183 Contingent consideration (3) (10,000) — 5,040 810 Gain on sale of subsidiary (4) — (402) — (402) Other 6,116 6,701 12,527 13,036 Total Asset-Light 396,636 522,176 848,819 1,096,344 Other and eliminations (13,978) (22,488) (31,572) (46,785) Total consolidated operating expenses $ 1,061,348 $ 1,185,654 $ 2,146,283 $ 2,360,802 (1) Represents costs associated with the Vaux freight handling pilot test program at ABF Freight. (2) Depreciation and amortization includes amortization of intangibles associated with acquired businesses. (3) Represents the change in fair value of the contingent earnout consideration related to the MoLo acquisition (see Note B). The second quarter 2023 decrease in fair value reflects the impact of continuing softer market conditions in 2023 and revised growth assumptions for 2024 and 2025 on the forecasts utilized at the June 30, 2023 remeasurement date. The net increase in fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2023 reflects an increase in fair value based on assumptions for business growth projected at March 31, 2023, partially offset by revised growth assumptions at June 30, 2023, which resulted in a decrease in fair value for the second quarter. (4) Gain relates to the contingent amount recognized in second quarter 2022 when the funds from the May 2021 sale of the labor services portion of the Asset-Light segment’s moving business were released from escrow.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS, AND OTHER EVENTS | |
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS, AND OTHER EVENTS | NOTE K – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS, AND OTHER EVENTS The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company maintains liability insurance against certain risks arising out of the normal course of its business, subject to certain self-insured retention limits. The Company routinely establishes and reviews the adequacy of reserves for estimated legal, environmental, and self-insurance exposures. While management believes that amounts accrued in the consolidated financial statements are adequate, estimates of these liabilities may change as circumstances develop. Considering amounts recorded, routine legal matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Legal Proceedings In January 2023, the Company and MoLo were named as defendants in lawsuits related to an auto accident which involved a MoLo contract carrier. The accident occurred prior to the Company’s acquisition of MoLo on November 1, 2021. The Company intends to vigorously defend against these lawsuits. The Company believes that a loss related to this matter is reasonably possible. The Company cannot estimate the amount or a range of reasonably possible losses for this matter, if any, at this time; however, it is reasonably possible that such amounts could be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company will pursue recovery for its losses, if any, against all available sources, including, but not limited to, insurance and any potentially responsible third parties. Environmental Matters The Company’s subsidiaries store fuel for use in tractors and trucks in underground tanks at certain facilities. Maintenance of such tanks is regulated at the federal and, in most cases, state levels. The Company believes it is in substantial compliance with all such regulations. The Company’s underground storage tanks are required to have leak detection systems. The Company is not aware of any leaks from such tanks that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company has received notices from the Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) and others that it has been identified as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, exposure related to identified properties based on current environmental regulations, management’s experience with similar environmental matters, and testing performed at certain sites. On March 20, 2023, ABF Freight entered into a consent decree with the EPA (the “Consent Decree”) and, as a result, will pay a civil penalty of $0.5 million, including interest, to resolve alleged compliance issues under the federal Clean Water Act (the “CWA”). By the date of the Consent Decree, the Asset-Based service center facilities were in general compliance with the stormwater laws and have ensured compliance with applicable stormwater permits under the CWA. As a result of the Consent Decree, ABF Freight is in the process of internally developing an environmental stormwater management strategy, including the delineation of roles and responsibilities for stormwater compliance; developing procedures for tracking the permit process, including comprehensive employee training; implementing standard operating procedures; ensuring contractor awareness of stormwater laws; and tracking facility-specific corrective actions. The settlement expense for this matter was reserved within accrued expenses as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Other Events During second quarter 2023, the Company received a Notice of Assessment from a state regarding an ongoing sales and use tax audit for the trailing time period of December 1, 2018 to March 31, 2021. This notice is in addition to the February 2021 Notice of Assessment from that state pertaining to uncollected sales and use tax, including interest and penalties, for the period September 1, 2016 to November 30, 2018. The Company does not agree with the basis of the assessments and has appealed the 2023 assessment on the same legal basis as the appeal filed in May 2021 for the prior Notice of Assessment. The Company has previously accrued an amount related to these assessments consistent with applicable accounting guidance, but if the state prevails in its position, the Company may owe additional tax. Management does not believe the resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. |

ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION | |
Financial Statement Presentation | Financial Statement Presentation On February 28, 2023, the Company sold FleetNet America, Inc. (“FleetNet”), a wholly owned subsidiary and reportable operating segment of the Company, for an aggregate adjusted cash purchase price of $100.9 million, including post-closing adjustments. The sale of FleetNet was a strategic shift for the Company as it exited the fleet roadside assistance and maintenance management business; therefore, the sale was accounted for as discontinued operations. As such, historical results of FleetNet have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented, and reclassifications have been made to the prior-period financial statements to conform to the current-year presentation. Related assets and liabilities associated with FleetNet are classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The cash flows related to the discontinued operations have not been segregated and are included in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to continuing operations, including comparisons to the prior year. For more information on the Company’s discontinued operations, see Note C. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior-year presentation of other long-term liabilities to conform to the current-year presentation of the contingent consideration liability on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pertaining to interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all information or footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which have not been adjusted to reflect FleetNet as discontinued operations, and other current filings with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which are of a normal and recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

(2) Fair value of the notes payable was determined using a present value income approach based on quoted interest rates from lending institutions with which the Company would enter into similar transactions (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). (3) ABF Freight’s multiemployer pension plan obligation with the New England Teamsters and Trucking Industry Pension Fund (the “New England Pension Fund”) was restructured under a transition agreement effective on August 1, 2018, which resulted in a related withdrawal liability. The fair value of the outstanding withdrawal liability is equal to the present value of the future withdrawal liability payments, discounted at an interest rate of 5.2% and 5.3% at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, determined using the 20-year U.S. Treasury rate plus a spread (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). As of June 30, 2023, the outstanding withdrawal liability totaled $19.8 million, of which $0.7 million was recorded in accrued expenses, and the remaining portion was recorded in other long-term liabilities. |

(2) Nonqualified deferred compensation plan investments consist of U.S. and international equity mutual funds, government and corporate bond mutual funds, and money market funds which are held in a trust with a third-party brokerage firm. Included in other long-term assets, with a corresponding liability reported within other long-term liabilities. (3) Included in other long-term assets. The fair value of the interest rate swap was determined by discounting future cash flows and receipts based on expected interest rates observed in market interest rate curves adjusted for estimated credit valuation considerations reflecting nonperformance risk of the Company and the counterparty, which are generally considered to be in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. However, the Company assessed Level 3 inputs as insignificant to the valuation at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and considers the interest rate swap valuation in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. (4) As part of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) of MoLo, executed in November 2021, certain additional cash consideration is required to be paid by the Company based on the achievement of certain incremental targets of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization for each of the years ended December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025. At 100% of the target, the cumulative additional consideration for years 2023 through 2025 would be $215.0 million, with the possible undiscounted cash consideration due ranging from a total of $95.0 million at 80% of target to $455.0 million at 300% of target, as outlined in the Merger Agreement. The estimated fair value of contingent earnout consideration is determined by assessing Level 3 inputs. The Level 3 assessments utilize a Monte Carlo simulation with inputs including scenarios of estimated revenues and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization to be achieved for the applicable performance periods, volatility factors applied to the simulations, and the discount rate applied, which was 14.2% and 14.0% as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Changes in the significant unobservable inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value at the reporting date. As of June 30, 2023, the contingent earnout consideration totaled $117.0 million, which was recorded in long-term liabilities. The increase in fair value of contingent earnout consideration as of June 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, reflects revised assumptions for business growth in 2024 and 2025, partially offset by the impact of continuing softer market conditions during 2023 and a higher discount rate at the June 30, 2023 remeasurement date. Based on the most recent remeasurement, achievement of the 2023 target is not expected; therefore, the current portion of the contingent consideration was reduced to zero as of June 30, 2023. Adjustments to the contingent earnout consideration liability are included in operating income. |

The equity investment is accounted for as a nonmarketable equity security without a readily determinable value using the measurement alternative, which allows for the investment to be recorded at cost, less any impairment and adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar equity security of the same issuer. The $3.7 million increase in fair value of the Company’s equity investment was measured as of April 26, 2023, based on an observable price change upon the closing of Phantom Auto’s Series B-2 funding round. The fair value of the investment was estimated using a hybrid method of the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the probability-weighted expected return method. This method produces a per-share value based on a probability-weighted scenario analysis. The scenarios reflect changes to the liquidation preferences based on the potential liquidity event. The Black-Scholes option pricing model used various inputs, including expected volatility, expected term to liquidity, risk-free rate over the expected term, breakpoints values, and liquidation preferences. |

(2) Depreciation and amortization includes amortization of intangibles associated with acquired businesses. (3) Represents the change in fair value of the contingent earnout consideration related to the MoLo acquisition (see Note B). The second quarter 2023 decrease in fair value reflects the impact of continuing softer market conditions in 2023 and revised growth assumptions for 2024 and 2025 on the forecasts utilized at the June 30, 2023 remeasurement date.
