TFI acknowledges US LTL ‘disaster’ and difficult Daseke integration in Q4

While the theme of TFI International’s fourth-quarter earnings call was much like that of the third quarter – its U.S. less-than-truckload operations are struggling years after the acquisition of UPS Freight – CEO Alain Bedard also turned his attention to how things are going at another high-profile acquisition: Daseke.

Bedard summed up the overall performance on the call with analysts: “Q4 was a disaster for us,” he said.

But that comment was mostly reflecting on the U.S. LTL operations, the...

The ongoing freight recession is having a multimodal spillover effect as shippers look for creative ways to save costs. Excess supply of trucking capacity remains the 18-wheeled elephant in the room, to such an extent that we see instances in which LTL is losing share to full truckload due to lower costs. Typically full truckload can compete with rail and intermodal when rates are lower, but recent Q1 earnings commentary...

Daseke now part of TFI International as acquisition closes

Flatbed operator Daseke ended its history as an independent trucking company Monday when its acquisition by Canada’s TFI International closed for $1.1 billion.

Daseke seeing ‘flight to safety’ as competitors exit

Flatbed truckload carrier Daseke cut its 2023 outlook on Thursday but said it was hopeful rates would improve as the market becomes more balanced next year.

Third-quarter adjusted earnings per share of 12 cents were in line with the consensus estimate but 22 cents lower year over year (y/y). The result excluded 10 cents in items like acquisition and restructuring costs. However, higher interest expense due to rising interest rates and an increase in preferred dividend payments presented a...
