Section 2 – Financial Information
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 18, 2024, the company issued a press release announcing financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is a copy of the company’s press release dated July 18, 2024 announcing the company’s financial results for this period.
The press release also includes a discussion of operating revenue, net of fuel surcharge revenue; and operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenue, with both amounts net of fuel surcharge revenue. The company provided these additional disclosures because management believes removing these items provide a more consistent basis for comparing results of operations from period to period. These financial measures in the press release have not been determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Pursuant to Regulation G, the company has included a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. For the discussion of operating revenue, net of fuel surcharge revenue; and operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenue, with both amounts net of fuel surcharge revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are operating revenue, and operating expenses divided by operating revenue, which are reconciled in the attached Exhibit 99.1.
The information contained in this report and the exhibit hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Section 7 – Regulation FD
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
Representatives of the company make presentations at investor conferences and in other forums, and these presentations may include the information contained in Exhibit 99.2 attached to this current report on Form 8-K. A copy of the presentation slides containing such information that may be disclosed by the company is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this report and the information set forth therein is incorporated herein by reference and constitutes a part of this report. The company expects to disclose the information contained in Exhibit 99.2, in whole or in part, and possibly with modifications, in connection with presentations to investors, analysts and others during 2024.
The company is furnishing the information contained in Exhibit 99.2 pursuant to Regulation FD and Item 7.01 of Form 8-K. The information in Exhibit 99.2 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
The information contained in Exhibit 99.2 is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of the company’s SEC filings and other public announcements that the company may make, by press release or otherwise, from time to time. The company undertakes no duty or obligation to publicly update or revise the information contained in Exhibit 99.2, although it may do so from time to time as its management believes is warranted. Any such updating may be made through the filing of other reports or documents with the SEC, through press releases or through other public disclosure. By filing this current report on Form 8-K and furnishing this information, the company makes no admission as to the materiality of any information contained in this report, including Exhibit 99.2.

Executive Chairman Randolph L. Marten stated, “Our earnings were heavily pressured by the freight market recession’s oversupply and weak demand, inflationary operating costs, and cumulative impact of freight rate reductions leading to freight network disruptions. Our unique multifaceted business model’s value is highlighted by the operating results for our dedicated, brokerage and MRTN de Mexico operations through the first half of this year.”
“We are focused on minimizing the freight market’s impact on our operations while investing in and positioning our operations to capitalize on profitable organic growth opportunities, with fair compensation for our premium services, across each of our business operations for what comes next in the freight cycle as the market moves toward equilibrium from its current recessionary late stages. Accordingly, we have not agreed to rate reductions since last August.”
“We are seeing increased interest by our customers to secure dedicated capacity and have recently added new multi-year dedicated programs for an additional 133 drivers starting in the third quarter.”
