With the payment of this dividend, the Company will have paid a total of $559.9 million in cash dividends, including four special dividends since the dividend program was implemented in the third quarter of 2003.

Heartland Express faces ongoing macro headwinds, with weak demand and oil price volatility weighing on revenue, but cost controls are improving efficiency.
