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 Holdings: Rating Downgrade On Poor Visibility Due To Macro Headwinds
I am downgrading Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings to a hold rating due to deteriorating macro conditions and reduced visibility on earnings and volumes. KNX's 1Q25 results showed strong margin recovery and operational progress, but revenue growth remains muted and macro uncertainty clouds the outlook. The TL segment shows signs of recovery with improved pricing and cost reductions, but volume declines and fleet size reductions pose risks.
