UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF WERNER ENTERPRISES, INC.

On January 27, 2026, Werner Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company” or “Werner”) acquired 100% of the equity interests of FirstEnterprises, Inc. ("FirstFleet"), a Tennessee corporation, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, Mary B. Wilson, Gary L. Wilson Family Trust, Gary L. Wilson GST-Exempt Family Trust, and Wilson Children 2020 GST-Exempt Trust. The Company acquired FirstFleet for $245.0 million, including a maximum $35.0 million earnout, based on gross revenue net of fuel surcharge for the period April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2027. Under a separate agreement, the Company also acquired real estate properties from FirstFleet for $37.8 million. The Company funded these transactions using its cash on hand, existing revolving credit facility and assumed capital leases. The purchase price allocated from this purchase is $220.6 million which values the earnout at $30 million and is net of the assumption of $57.1 million of capital lease liabilities.

The following unaudited pro forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet (the “Pro forma Balance Sheet”) and the unaudited pro forma Condensed Combined Statement of Comprehensive Income (the “Pro forma Statement of Comprehensive Income” and together with the Pro forma Balance Sheet, the “Statements”), are based on the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and FirstFleet’s historical combined financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the acquisition and the related financing transaction. The Pro forma Statement of Comprehensive Income for the year ended December 31, 2025 gives effect to these transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2025. The Pro forma Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2025 gives effect to these transactions as if they had occurred on December 31, 2025.

The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in the Statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisition, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the Pro forma Statement of Comprehensive Income, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results following the acquisition. Due to the timing of the acquisition, the Statements, including the pro forma adjustments, are based on a provisional purchase price allocation which includes estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the acquisition. The determination of estimated fair values requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions based on currently available information. The Company believes that the information available provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed; however, these provisional estimates are preliminary and may be adjusted upon the availability of new information regarding facts and circumstances which existed at the date of the acquisition. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of assets and liabilities as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the acquisition date.

The Statements are provided for illustrative purposes only. The Statements are not necessarily indicative of what the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations actually would have been had the acquisition been completed as of the date indicated and do not purport to project the future financial condition and operating results of the combined company. The Pro forma Statement of Comprehensive Income does not reflect potential revenue enhancements, cost savings or operating synergies that the Company expects to realize after the acquisition. In addition, the Pro forma Statement of Income does not reflect one-time restructuring or non-recurring integration costs which may be incurred by the Company in connection with the acquisition.

The Statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes. In addition, the Statements were based on and should be read in conjunction with:

•the historical audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 26, 2026;

•the historical audited consolidated financial statements of FirstFleet as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, and the related notes included in this Current Report on Form 8-K/A as ;

•the historical unaudited consolidated financial statements of FirstFleet as of and for the nine month periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related notes included in this Current Report on Form 8-K/A as .2.

(4) PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

Adjustments under the heading “Pro Forma Adjustments” in the accompanying Statements represent the following:

(a) Reflects the recording of the acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting. The total provisional purchase price has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of FirstFleet based on their estimated fair values. The amounts and components of the provisional purchase price, along with the provisional allocation of the purchase price are presented in Note 3.

(b) Reflects payroll removed for employees who were part of business operations not subject to the purchase agreement.

(c) The Company has preliminarily allocated $175.6 million of the purchase price to property and equipment. The estimated fair values of property and equipment were determined, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm, using the cost approach supported where available by observable market data, which includes consideration of functional and economic obsolescence. The Company estimated the weighted average useful lives of the assets based on the current condition and expected future use of the assets.

The following table summarizes the major classes of property and equipment and the respective weighted-average estimated useful lives using a straight-line method of depreciation and amortization (in thousands):


	Estimated Fair Value		Weighted- Average Estimated Useful Life (Years)	Year Ended December 31, 2025 Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Land	$	16,155	N/A	N/A
Buildings and improvements	21,597		30.0	720
Revenue equipment	130,585		2.9	45,029
Service equipment and other	7,236		6.0	1,206
	$	175,573		46,955
Less: FirstFleet’s historical depreciation and amortization expense				(45,034)
Pro forma adjustment				$	1,921

A hypothetical change of 10% in the valuation of property and equipment would result in a corresponding increase or decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. Any changes to the initial fair value estimates will be recorded as adjustments to property and equipment with the residual amounts allocated to goodwill.

(d) The Company has preliminarily allocated $22.6 million of the purchase price to intangible assets, consisting of customer relationships. The estimated fair values of intangible assets were determined, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm, using the multi-period excess earnings method for customer relationships. The method is a form of the income approach, which requires a forecast of all the expected future cash flows.

The following table summarizes the intangible assets and the respective weighted-average estimated amortization period (in thousands):


	Estimated Fair Value		Weighted- Average Estimated Useful Life (Years)	Year Ended December 31, 2025 Amortization Expense
Customer relationships	$	22,600	10.0	$	2,260
Pro forma adjustments	$	22,600		2,260

A hypothetical change of 10% in the valuation of intangible assets would result in a corresponding increase or decrease in amortization expense of $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. Any changes to the initial fair value estimates will be recorded as adjustments to intangible assets with the residual amounts allocated to goodwill.

(e) The Company borrowed $132.6 million under its existing unsecured credit facility to fund a portion of the cash consideration paid in the acquisition. In connection with the completion of the acquisition, the note payable owed by FirstFleet was repaid by the Company.

The following table summarizes the net increase to interest expense resulting from the additional debt incurred to finance a portion of the cash consideration paid in the acquisition, less the effects of repaying FirstFleet’s note payable and deferred compensation plan in connection with the completion of the acquisition (in thousands):


	Year Ended December 31, 2025
Interest expense for the revolving credit facility borrowing	$	7,147
Elimination of interest expense for FirstFleet’s note payable	(277)
Elimination of interest expense for FirstFleet’s deferred compensation plan	(710)
Pro forma adjustments	$	6,160

The interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 was calculated using an estimated interest rate of 5.39%, which represents the actual aggregate effective interest rate on the Company’s unsecured credit facility as of December 31, 2025. The variable interest rate on the unsecured credit facility is based on one-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate, plus a margin. A hypothetical 1/8 percent increase or decrease in the annual interest rate would result in a charge in the pre-tax interest expense of $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.

(f) Reflects $0.4 million of liabilities recorded for the Company’s estimated transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition. These estimated transaction costs, which are directly attributable to the acquisition, are not reflected in the Pro Forma Statement of Income, as these costs will not have an ongoing impact.

(g) The historical equity accounts, including the temporary equity - redeemable noncontrolling interest, for FirstFleet were eliminated as a result of the acquisition.

(h) Reflects the removal of the reduction of net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. The Company acquired real estate properties from the noncontrolling interest of FirstFleet under a separate agreement which was used to generate the net income attributable to noncontrolling interest.

(i) Reflects 25.5% effective tax rate applied to pro forma adjustments and historical FirstFleet net income.
