The accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements of Knight Transportation, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and Regulation S-X, instructions to Form 10-Q, and other relevant rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as applicable to the preparation and presentation of interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures have been omitted or condensed pursuant to such rules and regulations. We believe all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||
Revision of Prior Period Reported Amounts | |||||||||||||
During the first quarter of 2014, we identified errors associated with income tax accounts reported in prior periods. Specifically, the errors related to our income tax accounting for incentive stock options since the adoption of FAS 123R in 2006 and errors in recording required annual adjustments to the tax provision and taxes payable. The aforementioned errors resulted in an overstatement of the deferred tax liability by $2,355,000, understatement of income tax payable by $262,000, understatement of additional paid-in capital by $779,000, and understatement of retained earnings by $1,314,000 as of December 31, 2013. We have adjusted our previously reported income taxes payable, deferred tax liability, additional paid in capital, and retained earnings accounts as of January 1, 2013 to correct these errors and such adjustments are reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||
Pursuant to the guidance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, Materiality, we concluded that the errors were not material to any of our prior period financial statements. However, in accordance with SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatement in the Current Year Financial Statements, the prior period financial statements were revised to facilitate comparability between current and prior year periods. | |||||||||||||

Note 2. | Stock-Based Compensation | ||||||||||||||||
In May 2012, our shareholders approved the 2012 Equity Compensation Plan. This replaced the stock-based employee compensation plan known as the Knight Transportation, Inc. Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Option and Equity Compensation Plan, as amended and restated in May 2009 (the "2003 Plan"). Grants outstanding under the 2003 Plan will continue in force and effect. Any grants of stock-based compensation after May 18, 2012, are made under the 2012 Equity Compensation Plan. Stock based compensation cost for the three months, and six months ended June 30, 2014, and 2013, respectively, are as follows: | |||||||||||||||||

We received approximately $3.3 million and $10.8 million in cash from the exercise of stock options during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $1.0 million and $2.0 million for the same periods in 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
As of June 30, 2014, we have approximately $2.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options granted under our equity compensation plan. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years and a total period of 3.7 years. We also have approximately $14.6 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock unit awards, which is anticipated to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.2 years and a total period of 8.6 years. | |||||||||||||||||

-2 | Expected volatility – we analyzed the volatility of our stock using historical data. | ||||||||||||||||

The fair value of each restricted stock unit is based on the closing market price on the date of grant. | |||||||||||||||||
Beginning in 2014, we issued performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs’) to selected key employees that may be earned based on revenue growth and return on assets, and may then be modified based on our total shareholder return, as defined, over the three-year period. The primary award adjustment may range from 0 percent to 150 percent of the initial grant, based upon performance achieved. The primary award modifier, which would multiply the adjusted primary award by 75 percent to 125 percent, is measured by determining the percentile rank of the total shareholder return of Knight common stock in relation to the total shareholder return of a peer group for the three-year period. The final award will be based on performance achieved in accordance with the scale set forth in the plan agreement. Performance restricted stock units do not earn dividend equivalents. | |||||||||||||||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we granted 181,112 PRSUs, no awards were granted in the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The performance measurement period for this award is January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2016 (for Fiscal Year 2014, 2015, and 2016). This award will vest January 31, 2018, or thirteen months following the expiration of the performance period. The fair value of each PRSU grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo Simulation valuation model. Listed below are the weighted average assumptions used for the fair value computation: | |||||||||||||||||

Weighted average fair value of PRSUs granted | $ | 23.85 | |||||||||||||||
-1 | The dividend yield, used to project stock price to the end of the performance period, is based on our historical experience and future expectation of dividend payouts. Total shareholder return is determined assuming that dividends are reinvested in the issuing entity over the performance period, which is mathematically equivalent to utilizing a 0% dividend yield. | ||||||||||||||||
-2 | We (or peer company) estimated volatility using our (or their) historical share price performance over the remaining performance period as of the grant date. | ||||||||||||||||
-3 | The correlation coefficients are used to model the way in which each entity tends to move in relation to each other; the correlation assumptions were developed using the same stock price data as the volatility assumptions. | ||||||||||||||||
-4 | The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on U.S. Treasury securities at a constant maturity with a maturity period that most closely resembles the expected term of the performance award. | ||||||||||||||||

We have two operating segments: (i) the Trucking (Asset-Based) segment comprised of three operating units (Dry Van, Refrigerated, and Drayage), and (ii) the Logistics (Non-Asset-Based) segment comprised of two operating units (Brokerage and Intermodal). We also provide logistics, freight management and other non-trucking services through our Logistics (Non-Asset-Based) businesses. Through our Trucking (Asset-Based) and Logistics (Non-Asset-Based) segment capabilities, we are able to transport, or can arrange for the transportation of, general commodities for customers throughout the United States and parts of Canada and Mexico. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
We, in determining our reportable operating segments, focus on financial information such as operating revenues and expenses, operating income, operating ratios, and other key operating statistics common in the industry. The chief operating decision makers also use this information to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources to our operations. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Our operating segments provide transportation and related services for one another. Such intersegment revenues and expenses are eliminated in our consolidated results. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Trucking (Asset-Based) Segment Information | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Trucking (Asset-Based) trucking units operate large modern company-owned tractor fleets and use independent contractors to provide various transportation solutions, including multiple stop pick-ups and deliveries, dedicated equipment and personnel, on-time expedited pick-ups and deliveries, specialized driver training, and other truckload services. Revenues are generally set at a predetermined rate per mile or per load for the Trucking (Asset-Based) trucking services. In addition, revenue streams are also generated by charging for tractor and trailer detention, loading and unloading activities, dedicated services, and other specialized services, as well as through the collection of fuel surcharges to mitigate the impact of increases in the cost of fuel. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The primary measurement we use to evaluate the profitability of the Trucking (Asset-Based) segment is operating ratio, measured both on a GAAP basis (operating expenses expressed as a percentage of revenue) and non-GAAP basis used by many in our industry (operating expenses, net of Trucking (Asset-Based) fuel surcharge revenue, expressed as a percentage of Trucking (Asset-Based) revenue, excluding Trucking (Asset-Based) fuel surcharge revenue). We believe the second method allows us to more effectively compare periods while excluding the potentially volatile effect of changes in fuel prices. The tables below compare operating ratio using both methods. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Logistics (Non-Asset-Based) Segment Information | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Logistics (Non-Asset-Based) revenue is generated primarily by the Brokerage and Intermodal operating units, which charge a predetermined rate per mile or per load for arranging freight transportation for their customers. We also provide logistics, freight management and other non-trucking services through our Non-Asset-Based business. Additional revenue is generated by offering specialized logistics solutions (including, but not limited to, origin management, surge volumes, disaster relief, special projects, and other logistics needs). Logistics (Non-Asset-Based) revenue is mainly affected by the rates we are able to negotiate with customers, the freight volumes that are shipped through third-party capacity providers and our ability to secure qualified third-party capacity providers to transport customer freight. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

We are a party to certain claims and pending litigation arising in the normal course of business. These proceedings primarily involve claims for personal injury, property damage, physical damage, and cargo loss incurred in the transportation of freight or for personnel matters, as well as certain class action litigation in which plaintiffs allege failure to provide meal and rest breaks, unpaid wages, unauthorized deductions, and other items. | ||
We are insured against auto liability claims under a self-insured retention ("SIR") policy. For the policy year February 1, 2012 to January 31, 2013, the SIR was $2.0 million with an additional $1.0 million responsibility for "aggregate" losses. For the policy period February 1, 2013 to January 31, 2014, our SIR was $3.0 million with no additional responsibility for "aggregate" losses. For the policy period February 1, 2014 to March 1, 2015, our SIR is $2.5 million with no additional responsibility for "aggregate" losses. In the past, our retention generally ranged from $1.0 million to $3.0 million per occurrence, plus "aggregate" losses of up to $1.5 million. We have secured excess liability coverage up to $105.0 million per occurrence. We also carry a $2.5 million aggregate deductible for any loss or losses that rise to the excess coverage layer. | ||
We are self-insured for workers' compensation claims up to a maximum limit of $500,000 per occurrence. We also maintain primary and excess coverage for employee medical expenses and hospitalization, with self-insured retention of $225,000 per claimant. | ||
Based on claims resolved this quarter, and our present knowledge of the facts and, in certain cases, advice of outside counsel, management believes the resolution of open claims and pending litigation, taking into account existing reserves, is not likely to have a materially adverse effect on us. |

Note 13. | Income Taxes | |
We account 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. For interim reporting purposes, our income tax provisions are recorded based on the estimated annual effective tax rate. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. | ||
We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial operations. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has not been deemed necessary due to our profitable operations. | ||
We recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. We file federal and state income tax returns with varying statutes of limitations. The 2010 through 2013 tax years generally remain subject to examination by federal authority, and the 2009 through 2013 tax years generally remain subject to examination by state tax authorities. We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. We have not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013. |

Note 14. | Company Share Repurchase Programs | |
In November 2008, our Board of Directors unanimously authorized the repurchase of up to 3.0 million shares of our common stock, and in May 2011, our Board of Directors unanimously authorized the repurchase of an additional 10.0 million shares of our common stock. The repurchase authorization is intended to afford flexibility to acquire shares opportunistically in future periods and does not indicate an intention to repurchase any particular number of shares within a definite timeframe. Any repurchases would be effected based upon share price and market conditions. | ||
We did not purchase any shares in either of the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there were 7,438,556 shares remaining for future purchases under our repurchase program. The repurchase authorization will remain in effect until the share limit is reached or the programs are terminated. |

Note 15. | Fair Value Measurements | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on principles set forth in ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, for non-recurring fair value measurements of non-financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This standard establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the significant inputs used to determine fair value. Observable inputs are those which are obtained from market participants external to us while unobservable inputs are generally developed internally, utilizing management's estimates, assumptions, and specific knowledge of the nature of the assets or liabilities and related markets. The three levels are defined as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs). | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs, only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect our assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Note 18. | Line of Credit | |
We maintain a revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, which permits revolving borrowings and letters of credit. Previously, the line of credit had been maintained at $150.0 million with interest at either the prime rate, or LIBOR plus 0.625%. In October 2013, we increased this limit to $300.0 million, and going forward it will bear interest at either the prime rate, or LIBOR plus 0.75%, determined by us at the time of borrowing, and has a maturity date of October 21, 2016. We had $15.4 million outstanding under the line of credit as of June 30, 2014, compared to $38.0 million as of December 31, 2013. The weighted average variable annual percentage rate ("APR") for amounts borrowed during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 was 3.0%. Borrowings under the line of credit are recorded in the "Long-term debt" line of the consolidated balance sheets. In connection with our self-insurance program, we also utilized $24.0 million of the line of credit for letters of credit issued to various regulatory authorities as of June 30, 2014. With the outstanding letters of credit and debt borrowed, we have $260.6 million available for future borrowings as of June 30, 2014. We are obligated to comply with certain financial and other covenants under the line of credit agreement and were in compliance with such covenants at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. |

Note 19. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Stock Compensation - Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The amendments in this update require performance targets that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as performance conditions that affect the vesting of the award. The amendment is effective as of January 1, 2016 and we do not expect it to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements. | ||
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The main objective of this update is to require revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance in this update supersedes virtually all present U.S. GAAP guidance on revenue recognition. The amendments to the standard require the use of more estimates and judgments than the present standards and require additional disclosures. The amendments are effective as of January 1, 2017 and we are assessing the potential impact to our consolidated financial statements and financial statement disclosures. | ||
In March 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-06, Technical Corrections and Improvements Related to Glossary Terms. The amendments in this update represent changes to clarify the Master Glossary of the Codification, consolidate multiple instances of the same term into a single definition, or make minor improvements to the Master Glossary that are not expected to result in substantive changes to the application of existing guidance or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Additionally, the amendments will make the Master Glossary easier to understand, as well as reduce the number of terms appearing in the Master Glossary. The amendments do not have transition guidance and are effective upon issuance for both public entities and nonpublic entities. |

[1] | The dividend yield, used to project stock price to the end of the performance period, is based on our historical experience and future expectation of dividend payouts. Total shareholder return is determined assuming that dividends are reinvested in the issuing entity over the performance period, which is mathematically equivalent to utilizing a 0% dividend yield. | ||
[2] | We (or peer company) estimated volatility using our (or their) historical share price performance over the remaining performance period as of the grant date. | ||
[3] | The correlation coefficients are used to model the way in which each entity tends to move in relation to each other; the correlation assumptions were developed using the same stock price data as the volatility assumptions. | ||
[4] | The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on U.S. Treasury securities at a constant maturity with a maturity period that most closely resembles the expected term of the performance award. | ||
[5] | Since Monte Carlo valuation is an open form model that uses an expected life commensurate with the performance period, the expected life of the PRSUs was assumed to be the period from the grant date to the end of the performance period. |
