“Old Dominion’s financial results for the second quarter of 2022 include new Company records for revenue and profitability,” said Greg C. Gantt, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We produced these results by continuing to execute on our long-term strategic plan and delivering superior service at a fair price. Demand for our service remained strong throughout the quarter, which helped support a steady trend with our volumes and consistent yield improvement. The quality of our revenue growth, combined with our disciplined control over costs, allowed us to produce a sub-70% quarterly operating ratio for the first time in our Company’s history.
“The 26.4% increase in revenue for the second quarter was primarily due to a 22.6% increase in LTL revenue per hundredweight and a 2.8% increase in LTL tons per day. While the significant increase in the price of diesel fuel impacted our yield metrics, the 9.3% increase in LTL revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges, reflects the success of our long-term pricing strategy. We remain focused on consistently increasing our yield to offset cost inflation and to support our ongoing investments in capacity, which we believe are necessary to achieve our long-term market share initiatives.
“Our operating ratio improved to 69.5% for the second quarter of 2022, with most of our cost categories improving as a percent of revenue. Our salaries, wages and benefit costs as a percent of revenue improved to 42.3% from 46.4% in the second quarter of 2021, and our purchased transportation costs improved 70 basis points to 2.6% of revenue. These changes more than offset the increase in operating supplies and expenses as a percent of revenue that primarily resulted from the

significant increase in the cost of diesel fuel and other petroleum-based products during the quarter. The combination of revenue growth and improved operating ratio drove the 42.9% increase in our earnings per diluted share to $3.30 for the second quarter.”
Cash Flow and Use of Capital
Old Dominion’s net cash provided by operating activities was $427.3 million for the second quarter of 2022 and $816.1 million for the first half of the year. The Company had $196.1 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2022.
Capital expenditures were $229.4 million for the second quarter of 2022 and $323.1 million for the first half of the year. The Company expects its aggregate capital expenditures for 2022 to total approximately $835 million, including planned expenditures of $300 million for real estate and service center expansion projects; $485 million for tractors and trailers; and $50 million for information technology and other assets.
Old Dominion continued to return capital to shareholders during the second quarter of 2022 through its share repurchase and dividend programs. For the first six months of this year, the cash utilized for shareholder return programs included $731.9 million of share repurchases and $68.0 million of cash dividends.
Summary
Mr. Gantt concluded, “Old Dominion produced strong profitable growth during the second quarter by consistently executing on our long-term strategic plan. Our relentless focus on providing superior service at a fair price has created an unmatched value proposition within our industry. This value offering, combined with our available network capacity, has positioned us to win additional market share in the future. To support our long-term growth initiatives, however, we must continue to consistently invest in our OD Family of employees, our fleet, and our service center network. We are committed to the disciplined execution of these business fundamentals and, as a result, we are confident that we can drive additional growth in our earnings and shareholder value.”
