OLD DOMINION FREIGHT LINE, INC. Q2 FY26 Results

Old Dominion’s second quarter financial results include a 10.4% increase in revenue, a 30.0% increase in operating income, and earnings per diluted share that match our previous Company record that we set in the third quarter of 2022. The strength of our second quarter financial results reflects continued improvement in demand trends and the benefits of our long-term focus on yield discipline and operational execution. In addition, we continued to provide our customers with best-in-class customer service with 99% on-time service and a claims ratio of 0.1%. Our 10.4% increase in revenue was primarily due to a 15.2% increase in our LTL revenue per hundredweight that was partially offset by a 4.1% decrease in our LTL tons per day. The decrease in our LTL tons per day reflects the net impact of a 5.7% decrease in our LTL shipments per day and a 1.7% increase in our LTL weight per shipment. LTL revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges, increased 5.5% compared to the second quarter of 2025. Our disciplined approach to yield management is designed to offset our cost inflation over the long term while also supporting our ongoing investments in our capacity, our technology, and our people. Our operating ratio improved by 450 basis points to 70.1% for the second quarter of 2026. We continued to operate efficiently during the quarter and maintained our focus on revenue quality, which contributed to a 230 basis-point improvement in our direct operating costs as a percent of revenue. Our overhead costs as a percent of revenue also improved compared to the year-ago period, due in part to the $17.2 million of net gains from the disposal of property and equipment. The combination of revenue growth and operating ratio improvement resulted in a 32.3% increase in our earnings per diluted share to $1.68 for the second quarter. Old Dominion produced strong profitable revenue growth in the second quarter as we continued to successfully execute on the fundamental aspects of our long-term strategic plan, the cornerstone of which remains our ability to provide our customers with superior service at a fair price. I want to thank our team for their unwavering commitment to our customers, which has created an unmatched value proposition in our industry. In addition, due to the consistent investments in our network and our people, we have all of the necessary elements of capacity to support our customers as the demand environment continues to evolve. As a result, we remain confident that we are uniquely positioned to win market share and increase shareholder value over the long term.
