News Release

 

Yellow Corporation Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 3, 2023 – Yellow Corporation (NASDAQ: YELL) reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023. Operating revenue was $1.159 billion and operating loss was $9.3 million. In comparison, operating revenue in the first quarter of 2022 was $1.260 billion and operating income was $9.2 million which included a $5.5 million net gain on property disposals.

Net loss for first quarter 2023 was $54.6 million, or $1.06 per share, compared to net loss of $27.5 million, or $0.54 per share in the first quarter 2022.

On a non-GAAP basis, the Company generated Adjusted EBITDA of $34.3 million in first quarter 2023 compared to $52.0 million in the prior-year comparable quarter (as detailed in the reconciliation below). The last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA as of March 31, 2023, was $325.4 million compared to $341.4 million as of March 31, 2022 (as detailed in the reconciliation below).

“The soft demand environment during the first quarter was similar to the slowing pace we experienced late last year,” said Darren Hawkins, chief executive officer. “The daily shipment count remained steady from January through March without the typical seasonal uplift in demand in the second half of the quarter. However, year-over-year pricing continued to improve despite following exceptionally strong growth a year ago.

“Our results for the quarter were impacted by some remaining costs associated with the execution of Phase One, and planning and preparation for Phase Two of the network optimization and transition to a super-regional carrier. Phase One consisted of approximately 20% of the network and was successfully implemented in the western United States in 2022. Customers are seeing the benefits of Phase One with an improvement in the percentage of shipments going out for delivery before 9:00 a.m. and a reduction in missed pick-ups. Phase Two will consist of legacy YRC Freight, Holland and New Penn terminals in the Midwest, Northeast and Southeast, and covers approximately 70% of the network. We plan to provide an update on Phase Two once an implementation date has been determined. It’ is imperative that we complete our One Yellow strategy, which will strengthen the Company, protect 22,000 union jobs and ensure that our customers are well cared for and receive the range of services that today’s market demands. Phase One is a success and we continue to work with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters to determine the best path forward to implement Phase Two, and then turn our focus on refinancing the capital structure,” concluded Hawkins.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that reflects the company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that reflects EBITDA, and further adjusts for letter of credit fees, equity-based compensation expense, net gains or losses on property disposals, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to issuances of debt, non-recurring consulting fees, non-cash impairment charges and the gains or losses from permitted dispositions, discontinued operations, and certain non-cash expenses, charges and losses (provided that if any of such non-cash expenses, charges or losses represents an accrual or reserve for potential cash items in any future period, the cash payment in respect thereof in such future period will be subtracted from Adjusted EBITDA in such future period to the extent paid). Adjusted EBITDA as used herein is defined as Consolidated EBITDA in our UST Credit Agreements and Term Loan Agreement (collectively, the “TL Agreements”). EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used for internal management purposes as a financial measure that reflects the company’s core operating performance. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure compliance with financial covenants in our TL Agreements and to determine certain incentive compensation. We believe our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and other users as these measures represent key supplemental information our management uses to compare and evaluate our core underlying business results, particularly in light of our leverage position and the capital-intensive nature of our business. Further, EBITDA is a measure that is commonly used by other companies in our industry and provides a comparison for investors to evaluate the performance of the companies in the industry. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA helps investors to understand how the company is tracking against our financial covenants in our TL Agreements.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have the following limitations:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using our non-GAAP measures as secondary measures. The company has provided reconciliations of its non-GAAP measures to GAAP net income (loss) within the supplemental financial information in this release.
