• Reports fourth quarter records for net income, cash flow from operations, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow
  • Reaffirms full year targets for 2017 and 2018 adjusted EBITDA, and issues two-year, cumulative free cash flow target of approximately $900 million

XPO Logistics, Inc. (NYSE: XPO) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2016. For the fourth quarter of 2016, revenue increased 10.0% year-over-year to $3.68 billion. Net income attributable to common shareholders was $27.3 million for the quarter, or earnings of $0.22 per diluted share, compared with a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $62.8 million, or a loss of $0.58 per diluted share, for the same period in 2015.   

Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $29.8 million, or adjusted earnings of $0.24 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2016, excluding the items detailed below. This compares with an adjusted net loss attributable to common shareholders of $23.1 million, or an adjusted loss of $0.21 per diluted share, for the same period in 2015. 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: $34.9 million, or $21.8 million after-tax, of integration and rebranding costs; $16.5 million, or $10.1 million after-tax, of non-cash debt extinguishment costs related to the sale of the truckload unit; a benefit of $33.0 million, or $20.0 million after-tax, from unrealized gains on foreign exchange; and a $9.6 million benefit to our tax liability due to lower tax rates enacted in France.

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"), a non-GAAP financial measure, improved to $291.1 million for the quarter, excluding $34.9 million of transaction, integration and rebranding costs. This compares with $217.6 million for the same period in 2015.

For the full year 2016, the company generated $625.4 million of cash flow from operations and $210.9 million of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure. 

Financial Targets

The company reaffirmed its full year targets for adjusted EBITDA of at least $1.350 billion for 2017 and $1.575 billion for 2018.

The company issued a 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, "I'm pleased that we delivered record fourth quarter results for net income, cash flow from operations, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. We generated the strongest growth in last mile and contract logistics, driven primarily by e-commerce, more than offsetting a weak intermodal environment. Our less-than-truckload operations in North America capped an outstanding year with a 40% increase in fourth quarter adjusted operating income.

"Our focus remains on further enhancing customer service while realizing the significant profit improvement opportunities embedded in our business. This year, we'll get the full 12-month benefit of numerous efficiencies we implemented throughout 2016 in procurement, real estate, back office operations and workplace technologies. We have more savings to realize in each of these areas, along with cross dock and warehouse automation, labor productivity and the global adoption of best practices. In addition, we're marketing our services with a high caliber sales organization that draws on our total supply chain offering to help customers operate more productively." 

Jacobs continued, "We're continuing to execute our strategy for high growth and high returns. We have a concrete bridge to an EBITDA margin of more than 10% in 2018 - an increase of approximately 200 basis points over two years. We expect to grow free cash flow at an even faster rate than EBITDA, with a cumulative, two-year target of approximately $900 million of free cash flow by year-end 2018, including at least $350 million in 2017."

Fourth Quarter 2016 Results by Segment

  • Transportation: The company's transportation segment generated total revenue of $2.33 billion for the quarter, compared with $2.10 billion for the same period in 2015. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily due to the acquisition of Con-way Inc. on October 30, 2015, and to organic growth in both North America and Europe, partially offset by the divestiture of the North American full truckload unit on October 27, 2016. Organic revenue growth for the segment was led by the last mile unit, primarily driven by an increase in e-commerce business. Revenue growth was partially offset by softness in North American intermodal volumes.

Operating income for the transportation segment increased to $84.0 million, compared with an operating loss of $6.1 million a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment improved by 40% to $211.9 million, compared with $151.4 million a year ago. The increases in operating income and adjusted EBITDA were primarily due to the Con-way acquisition, significant year-over-year operating margin improvement in the North American less-than-truckload unit, and growth in the last mile unit.

  • Logistics: The company's logistics segment generated total revenue of $1.38 billion for the quarter, compared with $1.27 billion for the same period in 2015. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily due to the Con-way acquisition and to organic growth in both North America and Europe. In Europe, organic growth from new contracts with e-commerce and cold-chain customers was negated by the adverse impact of foreign exchange rates. In North America, growth was largely driven by gains in e-commerce, food and beverage, and aerospace business, partially offset by softness in automotive.

Operating income for the logistics segment increased to $51.2 million, compared with $34.8 million a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment improved to $108.6 million, compared with $98.5 million a year ago. The increases in operating income and adjusted EBITDA were primarily due to the Con-way acquisition and to organic growth, as well as better utilization of site assets and other productivity improvements.

  • Corporate: Corporate SG&A expense was $48.6 million for the quarter, compared with $66.6 million for the same period in 2015. The decrease in corporate expense reflects significantly lower transaction and integration costs year-over-year, partially offset by an increase in share-based compensation expense tied to the fourth quarter increase in the share price of XPO stock.

Full Year 2016 Financial Results

For the full year 2016, the company reported total revenue of $14.62 billion, a 91.8% increase from 2015. Net income attributable to common shareholders was $63.1 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $245.9 million, or a loss of $2.65 per diluted share, for 2015.

The adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders for 2016 was $121.5 million, or adjusted earnings of $1.00 per diluted share, excluding the items detailed below. This reflects a substantial improvement from the adjusted net loss attributable to common shareholders of $36.9 million, or an adjusted loss of $0.40 per diluted share, for 2015.

Adjusted net income for 2016 excludes: $103.2 million, or $65.3 million after-tax, of transaction, integration and rebranding costs; $69.9 million, or $42.9 million after-tax, of debt extinguishment and conversion costs; a benefit of $36.0 million, or $23.1 million after-tax, from unrealized gains on foreign exchange; discrete tax benefits of $15.7 million; and a benefit to depreciation and amortization of $5.8 million, or $3.6 million after-tax, related to the purchase price allocation of acquired assets.

Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2016 improved significantly to $1.25 billion, compared with $493.1 million for 2015. Adjusted EBITDA for 2016 excludes $103.2 million of transaction, integration and rebranding costs.

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 adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and adjusted earnings per share ("adjusted EPS") for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2016; free cash flow for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2016; adjusted operating income for our North American less-than-truckload business for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2016; as well as earnings and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA" and "adjusted EBITDA", respectively) for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, and net revenue for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 on a consolidated basis and for the company's transportation and logistics segments.

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.

The Company has evaluated the guidance in accordance with Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations (C&DI) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission table to calculate the non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share. The table above includes the U.S. GAAP financial statement items that have been reconciled to arrive at Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share. The Company has applied the jurisdictional statutory tax rate to the performance measures in the above table to calculate the adjusted performance metrics. The jurisdictional tax rate is materially consistent with our effective tax rate for fiscal 2016. The tax effects are reported for each reconciling item. A corresponding noncontrolling interest has been calculated for those reconciling items reported within the acquired Norbert Dentressangle SA legal entities.
