About: Knight-Swift is the largest full-truckload carrier in the US, with a diversified transportation offering. Pro forma for the US Xpress deal, about 82% of revenue derives from Knight's asset-based trucking business, with full truckload (for-hire dry van, refrigerated, and dedicated contract) making up 69% and less than truckload 13%. Truck brokerage and other asset-light logistics services make up 9% of revenue, with intermodal near 6%. Knight's intermodal operations use the Class I railroads for the underlying movement of its shipping containers and include drayage (regional trucking services to and from inland intermodal ramps/terminals). The remainder of revenue reflects services offered to shippers and third-party truckers, including equipment maintenance and leasing.

Knight-Swift Transportation: Reiterate Hold Until Earnings Growth Inflects Upwards
Knight-Swift's Q2 results showed improved execution, EPS beat, and reinstated guidance, suggesting the worst may be over but not a full recovery yet. Truckload segment margins improved due to cost controls and U.S. Xpress integration, while LTL saw strong revenue growth from network expansion. Headwinds persist: TL pricing remains soft, LTL margins are pressured by integration costs, and asset-light segments continue to underperform.
