Old Dominion Freight Line Provides Update for Second Quarter 2022

Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. (Nasdaq: ODFL) today reported certain less-than-truckload (“LTL”) operating metrics for May 2022. Revenue per day increased 26.0% as compared to May 2021 due to a 2.3% increase in LTL tons per day and an increase in LTL revenue per hundredweight. The change in LTL tons per day was attributable to a 2.8% increase in LTL shipments per day that was partially offset by a 0.6% decrease in LTL weight per shipment. For the quarter-to-date period, LTL revenue per hundredweight and LTL revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges, increased 22.4% and 9.6%, respectively, as compared to the same period last year.

Greg C. Gantt, President and Chief Executive Officer of Old Dominion, commented, “Old Dominion’s revenue growth exceeded 20% for both April and May of 2022, as customer demand has remained steady throughout the second quarter. The consistency in demand for our superior service has allowed us to improve our yields while also supporting our market share initiatives. We believe we can continue to win market share over the long term and, as a result, we remain fully committed to the same long-term strategic plan that has guided us for many years. As part of this plan, we will continue to focus on our value proposition of delivering superior service at a fair price to our customers. We will also continue to invest in our people, our fleet and our service center network to help ensure that the necessary elements of capacity are in place to support our anticipated volume trends. Through the ongoing execution of our long-term business strategies, we are confident in our ability to produce further profitable growth and increased shareholder value.”
