TFI International Inc. (NYSE and TSX: TFII), a North American leader in the transportation and logistics industry, today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. All amounts are shown in U.S. dollars.

“TFI International again posted very solid results despite soft market conditions, with year-over-year growth in revenues and operating income across all our business segments,” said Alain Bédard, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our performance was driven by the impressive execution by our team, including at the recently acquired Daseke operations where integration work is already off to a strong start. In addition, we’re executing well within US LTL, with continued improvements in tonnage, weight per shipment and revenue per shipment. We’re pleased with our consolidated net cash from operating activities of nearly $250 million and our free cash flow of more than $150 million, both up significantly over the past year. This strong cash flow is key in our ability to create value through strategic investment, regardless of market conditions, while returning excess capital to shareholders whenever possible.”

Total revenue of $2.26 billion increased from $1.79 billion in the prior year period and revenue before fuel surcharge of $1.96 billion increased from $1.55 billion in the prior year period. The increase is due to contributions from acquisitions partially offset by a reduction of volumes due to a continued weaker transportation environment and a reduction in fuel surcharge revenue.

Operating income of $208.1 million increased from $192.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating income is from business acquisitions and is partially offset by lower volumes and a $19.7 million restructuring charge related to the acquisition of Daseke recorded in the Corporate segment.

Net income of $117.8 million compared to $128.2 million in the prior year period, and net income of $1.38 per diluted share compared to $1.47 in the prior year period. The net income included a $19.7 million restructuring charge and an increase in interest expense of $24.0 million related to the financing of the Daseke acquisition. Adjusted net income, a non-IFRS measure, was $145.6 million, or $1.71 per diluted share, up from $138.9 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, the prior year period.

Total revenue increased in all segments relative to the prior year period with increases of 1% for Less-Than-Truckload, 78% for Truckload, primarily from the acquisition of Daseke, and 24% for Logistics. Operating income increased 2% for Less-Than-Truckload, 26% for Truckload and 54% for Logistics in the second quarter compared to the prior year.

SIX-MONTH RESULTS Total revenue of $4.14 billion increased from $3.64 billion in the prior year period and revenue before fuel surcharge of $3.57 billion increased from $3.11 billion in the prior year period. The increase is due to contributions from acquisitions partially offset by a reduction of volumes due to a continued weaker transportation environment and a reduction in fuel surcharge revenue.

Operating income of $359.7 million increased from $358.8 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating income is from business acquisitions and is partially offset by lower volumes and a $19.7 million restructuring charge related to the acquisition of Daseke recorded in the Corporate segment.

Net income of $210.6 million compared to $240.2 million in the prior year period, and net income of $2.47 per diluted share compared to $2.74 in the prior year period. The net income included a $19.7 million restructuring charge and an increase in interest expense of $34.5 million primarily related to the financing of the Daseke acquisition. Adjusted net income, a non-IFRS measure, was $251.1 million, or $2.95 per diluted share, compared to $255.4 million, or $2.92 per diluted share, the prior year period.

Total revenue increased relative to the prior year period with increases of 35% for Truckload, primarily from the acquisition of Daseke, and 25% for Logistics, and a decrease of 2% for Less-Than-Truckload.

* In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, it was determined that Package and Courier operating segment should be aggregated with the Canadian Less-Than-Truckload and U.S. Less-Than-Truckload operating segments, forming the Less-Than-Truckload reportable segment. Comparative information for Less-Than-Truckload reportable segment has been recast to be consistent with current reportable segments. 
 

CASH FLOW Net cash flow from operating activities was $248.5 million during Q2, an increase from $200.4 million the prior year. This increase was due primarily to an increase in depreciation and amortization of $44.4 million, $22.0 million fewer payments of provisioned amounts, and $13.8 million lower cash taxes, partially offset by a decrease in non-cash working capital of $25.8 million.

Net cash from investing activities decreased by $895.1 million as a result of an increase in spending on business acquisitions of $775.0 million, $85.7 million less proceeds from sale of investments, and an increase in net capital expenditures of $34.8 million.

The Company returned $67.5 million to shareholders during the quarter through dividends and share repurchases.

On June 17, 2024, the Board of Directors of TFI International declared a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per outstanding common share paid on July 15, 2024, representing a 14% increase over the $0.35 quarterly dividend declared in Q2 2023. The annualized dividend represents 18.5% of the trailing twelve month free cash flow1.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS The Company may make statements in this report that reflect its current expectations regarding future results of operations, performance and achievements. These are “forward-looking” statements and reflect management’s current beliefs. They are based on information currently available to management. Words such as “may”, “might”, “expect”, “intend”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “plan”, “foresee”, “believe”, “to its knowledge”, “could”, “design”, “forecast”, “goal”, “hope”, “intend”, “likely”, “predict”, “project”, “seek”, “should”, “target”, “will”, “would” or “continue” and words and expressions of similar import are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and those presently anticipated or projected.

The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements which reference issues only as of the date made. The following important factors could cause the Company’s actual financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in any forward-looking statement: the highly competitive market conditions, the Company’s ability to recruit, train and retain qualified drivers, fuel price variations and the Company’s ability to recover these costs from its customers, foreign currency fluctuations, the impact of environmental standards and regulations, changes in governmental regulations applicable to the Company’s operations, adverse weather conditions, accidents, the market for used equipment, changes in interest rates, cost of liability insurance coverage, downturns in general economic conditions affecting the Company and its customers, credit market liquidity, and the Company’s ability to identify, negotiate, consummate, and successfully integrate acquisitions. In addition, any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that are identified, and the cost of remediation of any such material weakness and any other control deficiencies, may have adverse effects on the Company and impact future results.

The foregoing list should not be construed as exhaustive, and the Company disclaims any subsequent obligation to revise or update any previously made forward-looking statements unless required to do so by applicable securities laws. Unanticipated events are likely to occur. Readers should also refer to the section “Risks and Uncertainties” at the end of the 2024 Q1 MD&A for additional information on risk factors and other events that are not within the Company’s control. The Company’s future financial and operating results may fluctuate as a result of these and other risk factors.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES This press release includes references to certain non-IFRS financial measures as described below. These non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the international Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation, in addition to, nor as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The terms and definitions of the non-IFRS measures used in this press release and a reconciliation of each non-IFRS measure to the most directly comparable IFRS measure are provided in the exhibits.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before finance income and costs, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, impairment of intangible assets, bargain purchase gain, restructuring from business acquisitions, and gain or loss on sale of land and buildings, assets held for sale, sale of business, and gain or loss on disposal of intangible assets. Management believes adjusted EBITDA to be a useful supplemental measure. Adjusted EBITDA is provided to assist in determining the ability of the Company to assess its performance.

Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share (adjusted “EPS”), basic or diluted Adjusted net income is calculated as net income excluding amortization of intangible assets related to business acquisitions, net change in the fair value and accretion expense of contingent considerations, net change in the fair value of derivatives, net foreign exchange gain or loss, impairment of intangible assets, bargain purchase gain, restructuring from business acquisitions, gain or loss on sale of land and buildings and assets held for sale, impairment on assets held for sale, gain or loss on the sale of business and directly attributable expenses due to the disposal of the business. Adjusted earnings per share, basic or diluted, is calculated as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares, basic or diluted. The Company uses adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share to measure its performance from one period to the next, without the variation caused by the impact of the items described above. The Company excludes these items because they affect the comparability of its financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in its business performance. Excluding these items does not imply they are necessarily non-recurring.
