“Financial results for the first two months of the quarter are improved compared to a year ago even though terminal operations were impacted from Covid-19 cases and weather during January and February,” said Darren Hawkins, Chief Executive Officer of Yellow Corporation. “February's tonnage decline was primarily impacted by limited terminal operations in select markets that lasted a few days attributable to these events. All Yellow operations are fully reinstated while demand for LTL service remains high and we continue to execute our strategy to improve profitability of the freight moving through our network.”



“Our goal to complete the transformation to One Yellow in 2022 remains on schedule. We are nearing completion of the design and modeling phase of the linehaul network integration to support both regional and long-haul service as well as streamline local pickup and delivery to eliminate duplication. When completed we will operate a fully integrated network with the speed, efficiency and consistency of a super-regional carrier,” concluded Hawkins.
