• | Earnings per share more than doubled from the third quarter of 2012 to $0.08; |
• | Total revenues decreased $98.9 million from the third quarter of 2012. As expected, the decrease was primarily due to the new cross border agreement with Union Pacific where we no longer collect and pass through the rail transportation costs to automotive intermediaries servicing the US-Mexico business; |
• | Total cost of purchased transportation and services decreased $99.0 million from the third quarter of 2012. As expected, the decrease was primarily due to the implementation of the new cross border agreement with Union Pacific; |
• | Income from operations increased $2.7 million from the third quarter of 2012 to $5.0 million, primarily due to improved gross margins in both the intermodal and logistics segments. Intermodal income from operations improved by $2.6 million or 29.9% and the logistics loss from operations decreased by $0.6 million or 26.1%; |
• | Net income increased $1.7 million from the third quarter of 2012 to $2.8 million; |
• | Cash on hand at September 30, 2013 improved to $39.7 million primarily due to $15.0 million in cash provided by operating activities during the quarter. |

1/ | 2012 GAAP results are after reclassification of certain selling, general and administrative expenses to cost of purchased transportation. |
2/ | Effective January 1, 2013, we now act as Union Pacific's network manager for US-Mexico cross-border shipments. We are compensated on a fee basis for such services and these fees are recorded as revenues in 2013. We no longer collect and pass through the rail transportation costs to automotive intermediaries servicing the US-Mexico business. Accordingly, adjustments were made to exclude these costs from revenues and cost of purchased transportation to present 2012 on a net basis. |
