J.B. Hunt Transport Services: Macro Pressure Adds Another Layer Of Uncertainty To Poor Fundamentals
I maintain a hold rating on JBHT due to ongoing margin pressures, mixed bid season outcomes, and macro uncertainties around tariffs affecting demand visibility. J.B. Hunt's 1Q25 revenue was $2.92 billion, down 1% y/y, with Intermodal revenue up 5% y/y but margins still declining. Dedicated Contract Services segment saw a 4% y/y revenue decline and a 14% y/y EBIT drop, indicating weak underlying demand and fleet reductions.
