• Achieved significant margin improvement in both transportation and logistics
  • Closed a record $716 million of new business in the quarter

XPO Logistics, Inc. (NYSE: XPO) today announced financial results for the first quarter 2017. Revenue was $3.54 billion for the quarter, compared with $3.55 billion for the same period in 2016. Revenue increased year-over-year by $122.6 million excluding the first quarter 2016 revenue from the North American truckload unit divested in October 2016. Net income attributable to common shareholders was $19.5 million for the quarter, or earnings of $0.16 per diluted share, compared with a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $23.2 million, or a loss of $0.21 per diluted share, for the same period in 2016.

Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $37.9 million, or adjusted earnings of $0.30 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2017, excluding the items detailed below. This compares with an adjusted net loss attributable to common shareholders of $9.3 million, or an adjusted loss of $0.08 per diluted share, for the same period in 2016. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are provided in the attached financial tables.   

The adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders for the quarter excludes: $21.0 million, or $13.3 million after-tax, of integration and rebranding costs; $11.9 million, or $7.4 million after-tax, from unrealized losses on foreign currency contracts; and $9.0 million, or $5.6 million after-tax, of debt extinguishment costs related to the refinancing of an existing term loan; and a tax benefit of $5.8 million primarily related to state tax planning initiatives.

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"), a non-GAAP financial measure, improved to $290.0 million for the quarter, excluding $21.0 million of integration and rebranding costs. This reflects a 16% increase over $249.3 million of adjusted EBITDA for the same period in 2016.

For the first three months of 2017, cash flow from operations was $15.0 million, and free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, was cash usage of $86.9 million.

Reaffirms Financial Targets

The company reaffirmed its full year targets for adjusted EBITDA of at least $1.35 billion for 2017 and at least $1.575 billion for 2018.

The company also reaffirmed its 2017-2018 cumulative free cash flow target of approximately $900 million, including at least $350 million of free cash flow generated in 2017.

CEO Comments  

Brad Jacobs, chairman and chief executive officer of XPO Logistics, said, "We started the year on a strong note by solidly beating our expectations for earnings, and continuing to expand margins in both transportation and logistics. In North American less-than-truckload, we increased operating income by a robust 49%, in part by running our line-haul, cross-dock and pickup-and-delivery operations more efficiently. Our market-leading position in e-commerce continued to drive growth in last mile and contract logistics, and our intermodal unit won the largest contract in any business line in XPO history."

Jacobs continued, "We anticipate that our performance will remain on a trajectory of high growth and high returns. We have a larger, more integrated sales organization feeding active bids into our $3 billion pipeline. The $716 million of sales we closed through March was a first quarter record for our company, up significantly from $429 million a year ago. Our global procurement team has already achieved $80 million of annual savings, and we're using our technology to better utilize our labor and capacity - all while helping our customers manage their supply chains more efficiently."

First Quarter 2017 Results by Segment

  • Transportation: The company's transportation segment generated revenue of $2.28 billion for the quarter, compared with $2.30 billion for the same period in 2016, reflecting the divestiture of the North American truckload unit on October 27, 2016. The divested operations contributed $128.8 million of revenue in the first quarter of 2016. Organic revenue growth for the segment was led by last mile and truck brokerage, partially offset by lower revenue in expedited and global forwarding, and unfavorable foreign exchange rates. 

Operating income for the transportation segment increased to $100.8 million, compared with operating income of $75.4 million a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment improved by 13.4%, after absorbing the negative impact of EBITDA divested with the truckload unit. The increases in operating income and adjusted EBITDA were primarily due to a 390 basis point improvement in adjusted operating margin in the North American less-than-truckload unit, as well as growth in North American last mile and European transportation.

  • Logistics: The company's logistics segment generated total revenue of $1.30 billion for the quarter, compared with $1.26 billion for the same period in 2016. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily due to growth in contract logistics in Europe, notably e-commerce and cold chain contracts in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Italy. This was partially offset by the unfavorable impact of currency fluctuations, particularly with the British pound sterling. In North America, growth was largely driven by gains in the e-commerce, food and beverage, and industrial sectors, partially offset by a decline in managed transportation revenue.

Operating income for the logistics segment increased to $47.2 million, compared with $31.9 million a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment improved to $98.8 million, compared with $87.8 million a year ago. The increases in operating income and adjusted EBITDA were primarily due to revenue growth, productivity improvements in European contract logistics and SG&A cost reduction in North American contract logistics.

  • Corporate: Corporate SG&A expense was $34.4 million for the quarter, compared with $44.9 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease in corporate expense primarily reflects lower integration costs year-over-year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and adjusted EBITDA for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016, and March 31, 2017, on a consolidated basis and for our transportation and logistics segments; free cash flow for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017; adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and adjusted earnings (loss) per share (basic and diluted) ("adjusted EPS") for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016, and March 31, 2017; net revenue for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017 for our transportation and logistics segments; and adjusted operating income for our North American less-than-truckload business for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017.

We believe that the above adjusted financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be reflective of, or are unrelated to, XPO and its business segments' core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying businesses. These adjustments are consistent with how management views our businesses. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating XPO's and each business segment's ongoing performance.

Accordingly, we believe that free cash flow is an important measure of our ability to repay maturing debt or fund other uses of capital that we believe will enhance stockholder value. We believe that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA improve comparability from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest and financing expenses), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax impacts and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables that management has determined are not reflective of normalized operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments for acquisition costs and related integration and rebranding initiatives. Transaction and integration adjustments are generally incremental costs that result from an acquisition and include transaction costs, restructuring costs, acquisition and integration consulting fees, internal salaries and wages (to the extent the individuals are assigned full-time to integration activities) and certain costs related to integrating and converting IT systems. Rebranding adjustments relate primarily to the rebranding of the XPO Logistics name on our truck fleet and buildings. We believe that adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and adjusted EPS improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain costs and gains incurred in the reporting period as set out in the attached tables.  We believe that net revenue improves the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the cost of transportation and services, in particular the cost of fuel, incurred in the reporting period as set out in the attached tables. We believe that adjusted operating income for our North American less-than-truckload business improves the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain transaction, integration and rebranding costs and amortization and depreciation expenses incurred in the reporting period as set out in the attached tables.

Other companies may calculate EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA differently, and therefore our measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Free cash flow, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, adjusted EPS, net revenue and adjusted operating income for our North American less-than-truckload business are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to revenue, net income, operating income for our North American less-than-truckload business, cash flows provided (used) by operating activities and other measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Items excluded from EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are significant and necessary components of the operations of our business, and, therefore, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should only be used as a supplemental measure of our operating performance.

As required by SEC rules, we provide reconciliations of these historical measures to the most directly comparable measure under United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), which are set forth in the financial tables attached to this document. With respect to our 2017 and 2018 financial targets of adjusted EBITDA and our 2017 and 2017-2018 cumulative targets for free cash flow, each of which is a non-GAAP measure, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability and complexity of the reconciling items described below that we exclude from the non-GAAP target measure. The variability of these items may have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results and, as a result, we are unable to prepare the forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flow, prepared in accordance with GAAP that would be required to produce such a reconciliation.
