Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014
(Unaudited)
1. Organization
Nature of Business
XPO Logistics, Inc. (XPO, the Company, we, us or our)provides premium transportation and logistics services to thousands of customers through our three business units:
Freight Brokerageprovides services primarily to customers in North America under the brands XPO Logistics, XPO Last Mile (formerly 3PD), and Pacer. These services include truckload, less-than truckload and intermodal brokerage, and last-mile delivery logistics services for the delivery of heavy goods. Freight brokerage services are arranged using relationships with subcontracted motor and rail carriers, as well as vehicles that are owned and operated by independent contract drivers.
Expedited Transportationprovides services under the brands XPO Express (formerly Express-1), XPO NLM and XPO Air Charter to customers in North America. These services include the management of time-critical, urgent shipments, transacted through direct selling and through our web-based technology. Expedited ground services are provided through a fleet of exclusive-use vehicles that are owned and operated by independent contract drivers, referred to as owner operators, and through contracted third-party motor carriers. For shipments requiring air charter, service is arranged using our relationships with third-party air carriers.
Freight Forwardingprovides services under the brands XPO Global Logistics (formerly Concert Group Logistics) and Ocean World Lines (a Pacer brand) to North America-based customers with domestic and global interests. These services are sold and arranged under the authority of XPO Global Logistics through a network of Company-owned and independently-owned offices in the United States and Canada and, following the acquisition of Pacer, under the authority of RF International and Ocean World Lines, in the United States, Europe and Asia.
For specific financial information relating to the above segments, refer to Note 15Segment Reporting.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. However, management believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of the Company, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present the Companys financial position as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information and actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated balance sheets and results of operations. Where the presentation of these intercompany eliminations differs between the consolidated and reportable segment financial statements, reconciliations of certain line items are provided.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 that are set forth in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, a copy of which is available on the SECs website (www.sec.gov). Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.
7
Use of Estimates
The Company prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. The Company reviews its estimates on a regular basis and makes adjustments based on historical experience and existing and expected future conditions. Estimates are made with respect to, among other matters, recognition of revenue, costs of purchased transportation and services, recoverability of long-lived assets, estimated legal accruals, estimated restructuring accruals, valuation allowances for deferred taxes, reserve for uncertain tax positions, and allowance for doubtful accounts. These evaluations are performed and adjustments are made as information is available. Management believes that these estimates, which have been discussed with the audit committee of the Companys board of directors, are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Statements of Operations, Balance Sheet, and Statement of Cash Flows Presentation
Certain line items from the December 31, 2013 consolidated balance sheet and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-months ended June 30, 2013 have been conformed to the 2014 presentation. The carrier costs related to unbilled revenue are now included in accounts payable rather than accrued expenses, other. The conformed line items had no impact on previously reported results.
Certain line items from the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 have been conformed to the 2014 presentation, including the retitling of direct expense to cost of purchased transportation and services and the addition of the direct operating expense category. The conformed line items had no impact on previously reported results.
Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time when delivery is completed and the shipping terms of the contract have been satisfied, with related costs of delivery being accrued as incurred and expensed within the same period in which the associated revenue is recognized. The Companys warehousing, distribution and supply chain services revenues are recognized as the storage or service is rendered. The Company uses the following supporting criteria to determine that revenue has been earned and should be recognized:
| Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; |
| Services have been rendered; |
| The sales price is fixed and determinable; and |
| Collectability is reasonably assured. |
For all subsidiaries other than XPO NLM, the Company reports revenue on a gross basis in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 605, Reporting Revenue Gross as Principal Versus Net as an Agent. The Company believes presentation on a gross basis is appropriate under ASC Topic 605 in light of the following factors:
| The Company is the primary obligor and is responsible for providing the service desired by the customer. |
| The customer holds the Company responsible for fulfillment, including the acceptability of the service (requirements may include, for example, on-time delivery, handling freight loss and damage claims, establishing pick-up and delivery times, and tracing shipments in transit). |
| For Expedited Transportation and Freight Brokerage, the Company has complete discretion to select its drivers, contractors or other transportation providers (collectively, service providers). For Freight Forwarding, the Company enters into agreements with significant service providers that specify the cost of services, among other things, and has ultimate authority in providing approval for all service providers that can be used by Freight Forwardings independently-owned stations. Independently-owned stations may further negotiate the cost of services with Freight Forwarding-approved service providers for individual customer shipments. |
| Expedited Transportation and Freight Brokerage have complete discretion to establish sales prices. Independently-owned stations within Freight Forwarding have the discretion to establish sales prices. |
8
| The Company bears credit risk for all receivables. In the case of Freight Forwarding, the independently-owned stations reimburse Freight Forwarding for a portion (typically 70-80%) of credit losses. Freight Forwarding retains the risk that the independent station owners will not meet this obligation. |
For the Companys subsidiary XPO NLM, revenue is recognized on a net basis in accordance with ASC Topic 605. The Company does not serve as the primary obligor, receives a fixed management fee for its services and does not assume credit risk for these transactions. In certain instances, the Company also does not have discretion to select its service providers.
Specific to the Companys intermodal business, the Company has entered into certain agreements that represent multiple-deliverable arrangements. Deliverables under the arrangements represent separate units of accounting that have stand-alone value and no customer-negotiated refunds or return rights exist for the delivered services. These deliverables consist of network management fees, equipment use fees, ocean carrier intermodal services and drayage services. Revenue is allocated to each deliverable based on the relative selling price method. The relative selling price method is based on a hierarchy consisting of vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE), if available, third-party evidence (TPE), if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling prices (ESP), if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. For the ocean carrier intermodal and drayage services, revenue is allocated based on VSOE. VSOE is not available for either the network management fees or the equipment fees. TPE was established for the equipment fees by evaluating similar and interchangeable competitor services in stand-alone sales. TPE could not be established for the network management fees. Therefore, the Company determined ESP for the network management fees by considering several external and internal factors including, but not limited to, pricing practices, similar product offerings, margin objectives and internal costs. ESP for each deliverable is updated, when appropriate, to ensure that it reflects recent pricing experience. Revenue is recognized for each of the deliverables when the revenue recognition conditions discussed above are met.
The Companys Freight Forwarding segment collects certain taxes and duties on behalf of their customers as part of the services offered and arranged for international shipments. The Companys accounting policy is to present these collections on a gross basis with revenue recognized of $5.9 million and $1.5 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $7.0 million and $2.3 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the date of purchase to be cash equivalents unless the investments are legally or contractually restricted for more than three months.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company records its allowance for doubtful accounts based upon its assessment of various factors. The Company considers historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of the Companys customers, any specific customer collection issues that have been identified, current economic conditions, and other factors that may affect customers ability to pay.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets include prepaid rent, software maintenance costs, insurance premiums, other prepaid operating expenses, certain inventories at XPO Last Mile, receivables related to certain working capital adjustments from acquisitions, and other miscellaneous receivables. Prepaid expenses are amortized into expense over the respective contract term or other applicable time period.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are generally recorded at cost or in the case of internally developed acquired technology at fair value at the date of acquisition. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold, the applicable costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in income. For internal use software, the Company has adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 350, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other. Accordingly, certain costs incurred in the planning and evaluation stage of internal use computer software are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and included in property and equipment. Capitalized internal use software also includes the fair value of acquired internally developed technology. Capitalized internal use software totaled $43.2 million and $31.7 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Goodwill and Intangible Assets with Indefinite Lives
Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company rebranded its Express-1 business to XPO Express. As a result of this action, the Company accelerated the amortization of $3.3 million in indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Express-1 trade name based on the reduction in its remaining useful life. The $3.3 million of accelerated amortization represented the full value of the Express-1 trade name intangible asset.
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 350, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other, which requires an annual impairment test for goodwill. The Company may first choose to perform a qualitative evaluation of the likelihood of goodwill impairment. If the Company determined a quantitative evaluation was necessary, the goodwill at the reporting unit was subject to a two-step impairment test. The first step compares the book value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, with its fair value. If the book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company completes the second step in order to determine the amount of goodwill impairment loss that should be recorded. In the second step, the Company determines an implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and liabilities other than goodwill. The amount of impairment is equal to the excess of the book value of goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The Company performs the annual impairment testing during the third quarter unless events or circumstances indicate impairment of the goodwill may have occurred before that time. For the periods presented, the Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment as the estimated fair value of its reporting units with goodwill exceeded the book value of these reporting units. For additional information refer to Note 9Goodwill.
Intangible Assets with Definite Lives
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, which establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held-and-used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows over the remaining useful life of a long-lived asset group is less than its carrying amount, the asset is considered to be impaired. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset. The Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the asset. For the periods presented, the Company did not recognize any impairment of the identified intangible assets.
The Companys intangible assets subject to amortization consist of customer lists and relationships, trade names, non-compete agreements, carrier relationships and other intangibles. Customer lists and relationships and trade names are amortized on an accelerated basis over the period of economic benefit based on the estimated cash flows attributable to the related intangible assets. Non-compete agreements, carrier relationships and other intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related intangible asset. The estimated useful lives of the respective intangible assets by type are as follows:

Classification | Estimated Useful Life | |
Customer lists and relationships |
3 to 14 years | |
Carrier relationships |

The incentive payments are made by XPO Global Logistics to certain station owners as an incentive to establish an independently-owned station and are amortized over the life of each independent station contract and the unamortized portion generally is recoverable in the event of default under the terms of the agreements. The debt issuance costs related to the revolving credit facility are amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective term while the debt issuance costs related to the convertible senior notes are amortized using the effective interest method. The capitalized preventative maintenance costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the economic useful life depending on the type of maintenance performed.

Income Taxes
Taxes on income are provided in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the book values and the tax basis of particular assets and liabilities, and the tax effects of net operating loss and capital loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rate is recognized as income or expense in the period that included the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to offset the net deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management periodically assesses the likelihood that the Company will utilize its existing deferred tax assets and records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes is determined based on ASC Topic 740, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a companys financial statements and provides guidance on the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transition. For additional information refer to Note 12Income Taxes.
Foreign Currency Translation
The statements of operations of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currencies are other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates for the period and the exchange gain or loss is reflected in expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Exchange gains or losses are not material to the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented. The net assets of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currencies are other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. The U.S. dollar effects that arise from translating the net assets of these subsidiaries at changing rates are recorded in stockholders equity. Transaction gains and losses were not significant for any of the periods presented.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
| Level 1Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; |
| Level 2Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and |
| Level 3Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, generally utilizing pricing models or other valuation techniques that reflect managements judgment and estimates. |
12
At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Companys financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis included $47.5 million and $1.6 million of money market funds, respectively.
Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The aggregate net fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management. The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments approximated their fair values as of the periods ended June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued expense, notes payable and current maturities of long-term debt. Fair values approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short-term in nature and they are receivable or payable on demand. The fair value of the Freight Forwarding notes receivable from the owners of the independently-owned stations approximated their respective carrying values based on the interest rates associated with these instruments.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding $120.7 million of 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due October 1, 2017, which the Company is obligated to repay at face value unless the holder agrees to a lesser amount or elects to convert all or a portion of such notes into the Companys common stock. Holders of the convertible senior notes are due interest semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The conversion rate was initially 60.8467 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.43 per share of common stock) and is subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. The fair value of the convertible senior notes was $225.3 million as of June 30, 2014. For additional information refer to Note 6Debt.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation based on the equity instruments grant date fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718, CompensationStock Compensation. The fair value of each share-based payment award is established on the date of grant. For grants of restricted stock units, including those subject to service-based vesting conditions and those subject to service and performance or market-based vesting conditions, the fair value is established based on the market price on the date of the grant. For grants of options, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards. The determination of the fair value of share-based awards is affected by the Companys stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends.
The weighted-average fair value of each stock option recorded in expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and is amortized over the requisite service period of the option. The Company has used one grouping for the assumptions, as its option grants have similar characteristics. The expected term of options granted has been derived based upon the Companys history of actual exercise behavior and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Historical data was also used to estimate option exercises and employee terminations. Estimated volatility is based upon the Companys historical market price at consistent points in a period equal to the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and the expected dividend yield is zero. For additional information refer to Note 11Stock-Based Compensation.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per common share are computed in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, which requires companies to present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. For additional information refer to Note 13Earnings per Share.

2014 Acquisitions
Pacer International
On January 5, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Pacer Merger Agreement) with Pacer International, Inc., providing for the acquisition of Pacer by the Company (the Pacer Transaction). Pacer is an asset-light North American freight transportation and logistics services provider. The closing of the transaction was effective on March 31, 2014 (the Effective Time).
At the Effective Time, each share of Pacers common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive (i) $6.00 in cash and (ii) 0.1017 of a share of XPO common stock, which amount is equal to $3.00 divided by the average of the volume-weighted average closing prices of XPO common stock for the ten trading days prior to the Effective Time (the Merger Consideration). Pursuant to the terms of the Pacer Merger Agreement, all
13
vested and unvested Pacer options outstanding at the Effective Time were settled in cash based on the value of the Merger Consideration. In addition, all Pacer restricted stock, and all vested and unvested Pacer restricted stock units and performance units outstanding at the Effective Time were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. The fair value of the total consideration paid under the Pacer Merger Agreement was $331.5 million and consisted of $223.3 million of cash payable at the time of closing and $108.2 million representing the fair value of 3,688,246 shares of the Companys common stock at the closing market price of $29.41 per share on March 31, 2014 less a marketability discount on a portion of shares issued to certain former Pacer executives due to a holding period restriction. The marketability discount did not have a material impact on the fair value of the equity consideration provided.
The Pacer Transaction was accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with ASC 805 Business Combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of March 31, 2014, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents the expected synergies and cost rationalization from the merger of operations as well as intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition such as an assembled workforce.

The amount of restructuring charges incurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 and included in our condensed consolidated statement of operations as sales, general and administrative expense is summarized below (in thousands). These charges are not allocated to our reportable segments. No amount of the restructuring liability was included in the purchase price allocation for Pacer as all activities were initiated by XPO to benefit the post-combination period.

5. Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Commitments
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $15.2 million in future minimum payments required under non-cancellable service agreements for ongoing services, maintenance and support to information technology providers. Remaining future minimum payments related to these agreements amount to approximately $9.5 million, $4.7 million, $0.7 million, $0.2 million, and $0.1 million for the periods ending June 30, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 and thereafter, respectively.
During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, $3.0 million and $3.2 million of expense was recognized related to these agreements, respectively.
Lease Commitments
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $159.2 million in future minimum payments required under operating leases for various real estate, double-stack railcars, containers, chassis, tractors, data processing equipment, transportation and office equipment leases that have an initial or remaining non-cancelable lease term. Remaining future minimum payments related to these operating leases amount to approximately $61.0 million, $38.6 million, $23.9 million, $14.6 million, and $21.1 million for the periods ending June 30, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 and thereafter, respectively.
Certain operating leases for railcars contain provisions for automatic renewal for an additional five year period. The above remaining future minimum payments assume the automatic five year renewal and include the related minimum lease payments.
Rent expense was $14.2 million and $1.0 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $19.2 million and $1.8 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
The Company receives income from others for the use of its double-stack railcars and containers. These income amounts are included in revenues. Rental income was $9.3 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively.
Litigation
The Company is involved, and will continue to be involved, in numerous legal proceedings arising out of the conduct of its business. These proceedings may include, among other matters, claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with the transportation of freight and employment-related claims, including claims involving asserted breaches of employee restrictive covenants and tortious interference with contract. These proceedings also include numerous purported class-action lawsuits, multi-plaintiff and individual lawsuits and state tax and other administrative proceedings that claim that the Companys owner operators or contract carriers should be treated as employees, rather than independent contractors. These lawsuits and proceedings may seek substantial monetary damages (including claims for unpaid wages, overtime, failure to provide meal and rest periods, unreimbursed business expenses and other items), injunctive relief, or both.
18
The Company establishes accruals for specific legal proceedings when it is considered probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Accruals for loss contingencies are reviewed quarterly and adjusted as additional information becomes available. In connection with certain acquisitions of privately-held businesses, the Company has retained purchase price holdbacks to provide security for a negotiated duration with respect to damages incurred in connection with pre-acquisition claims and litigation matters. If a loss is not both probable and reasonably estimable, or if an exposure to loss exists in excess of the amount accrued therefor or the applicable purchase price holdback, the Company assesses whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred. If there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred, the Company discloses the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss if it is material and an estimate can be made, or states that such an estimate cannot be made. The evaluation as to whether a loss is reasonably possible or probable is based on the Companys assessment, in conjunction with legal counsel, regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter.
The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for, or has adequate purchase price holdbacks with respect to, the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable, and there was no indication of a reasonable possibility that a material loss, or additional material loss (including in excess of any applicable purchase price holdback), may have been incurred. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any matters to which the Company is presently party will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company carries liability and excess umbrella insurance policies that it deems sufficient to cover potential legal claims arising in the normal course of conducting its operations as a transportation company. In the event the Company is required to satisfy a legal claim in excess of the coverage provided by this insurance, the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be negatively impacted.
California DLSE claims
The Companys Pacer subsidiary, which was acquired on March 31, 2014, received notices from the California Labor Commissioner, Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (the DLSE), that a total of 153 owner operators contracted with certain Pacer subsidiaries have filed claims with the DLSE in which they assert that they should be classified as employees, as opposed to independent contractors. These claims seek reimbursement for the owner operators business expenses, including fuel, tractor maintenance and tractor lease payments. A decision has been rendered by a DLSE hearing officer in seven of these claims, who awarded a total of $2.2 million to the seven claimants. Pacer has appealed these awards to California Superior Court, San Diego, where a de novo trial will be held on the merits of those claims. As a part of the acquisition accounting process, XPO is currently evaluating these claims and the recent award to the seven claimants and will determine the fair value of these claims, if any, in the forthcoming measurement period. The Company has not established any reserve with respect to these matters as of June 30, 2014.
Pacer Acquisition Litigation
Between January 8 and January 16, 2014, five substantially identical putative class actions were filed in the Tennessee Chancery Court against the Company, Pacer and Pacers directors challenging the Companys acquisition of Pacer. By stipulation and order dated February 18, 2014, the Chancery Court for Davidson County consolidated these cases under the caption In re Pacer International, Inc. Shareholder Litigation, No. 14-39-IV. The operative complaint in the consolidated case alleges, among other things, that the directors of Pacer breached their fiduciary duties to Pacers shareholders in connection with the proposed acquisition of Pacer by XPO by agreeing to the proposed merger at an allegedly unfair price pursuant to a purportedly flawed and conflicted sales process, by including certain allegedly preclusive deal-protection measures, and by misrepresenting and/or omitting certain allegedly material information in the proxy statement relating to the transaction. The parties have reached an agreement in principle to settle all of these claims, which the Company continues to believe are without merit. The settlement remains subject to Court approval. There can be no assurance that the parties will ultimately enter into a definitive settlement agreement or that the Court will approve the settlement.
6. Debt
Debt Facilities
The Company may from time to time use debt financing for acquisitions and business start-ups, among other things. The Company also enters into long-term debt and capital leases with various third parties from time to time to finance certain operational equipment and other assets used in its business operations. Generally, these loans and capital leases bear interest at market rates, and are collateralized with accounts receivable, equipment and certain other assets of the Company.
19
As of June 30, 2014, the Company and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as borrowers, were parties to a $415.0 million multicurrency secured Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Credit Agreement (the Amended Credit Agreement) with the lender parties thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent for such lenders, with a commitment termination date of October 17, 2018. The principal amount of the commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement may be increased by an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million, subject to certain terms and conditions specified in the Amended Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement replaces and supersedes in its entirety the $125.0 million multicurrency secured Revolving Loan Credit Agreement that the Company entered into on October 18, 2013. At June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $8.3 million. The letters of credit were fully cash collateralized by the Company. The collateral is included in restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014. The Companys availability under the Amended Credit Agreement is not impacted by the cash collateralized outstanding letters of credit.
The proceeds of the Amended Credit Agreement may be used by the Company and its subsidiaries for ongoing working capital needs, other general corporate purposes, including strategic acquisitions, and fees and expenses in connection with the transaction. At June 30, 2014, the Company had no amount drawn under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance, in all material respects, with all covenants related to the Amended Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2014. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Companys option, the one, two, three or six month (or such other period less than one month or greater than six months as the lenders may agree) LIBOR rate plus a margin of 1.75% to 2.25%, or a base rate plus a margin of 0.75% to 1.25%. The Company is required to pay an undrawn commitment fee equal to 0.25% or 0.375% of the quarterly average undrawn portion of the commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement, as well as customary letter of credit fees. The margin added to LIBOR, or base rate, will depend on the quarterly average availability of the commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement.
All obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Companys assets and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries, provided that no foreign subsidiary guarantees, and no assets of any foreign subsidiary secures, any obligations of any of the Companys domestic borrower subsidiaries. The borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the Companys subsidiaries. Within the meaning of Regulation S-X, Rule 3-10, XPO Logistics, Inc. (the parent company) has no independent assets or operations, the guarantees of its subsidiaries are full and unconditional and joint and several, and any subsidiaries other than the guarantor subsidiaries are minor. The Amended Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that are customary for agreements of this type. Among other things, the covenants in the Amended Credit Agreement limit the Companys ability to, with certain exceptions: incur indebtedness; grant liens; engage in certain mergers, consolidations, acquisitions and dispositions; make certain investments and restricted payments; and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. In certain circumstances, the Amended Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain minimum EBITDA or, at the Companys election, maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.00 to 1.00. If an event of default under the Amended Credit Agreement shall occur and be continuing, the commitments thereunder may be terminated and the principal amount outstanding thereunder, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owed thereunder, may be declared immediately due and payable. Certain subsidiaries acquired by the Company in the future may be excluded from the restrictions contained in certain of the foregoing covenants. The Company does not believe that the covenants contained in the Amended Credit Agreement will impair its ability to execute its strategy.
Convertible Senior Notes
At June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding $120.7 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due October 1, 2017 (the Notes). Total unamortized debt issuance costs classified in other long-term assets at June 30, 2014 are $2.5 million. Interest is payable on the Notes on April 1 and October 1 of each year.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, there were no significant conversions of the Companys Notes.
Under certain circumstances at the election of the holder, the convertible senior notes may be converted until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding April 1, 2017, into cash, shares of the Companys common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Companys election, at the initial conversion rate of approximately 60.8467 shares of common stock per $1,000 in principal amount, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.43 per share. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, the Company will increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its convertible senior notes in connection with such corporate event in certain circumstances. On or after April 1, 2017, until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their convertible senior notes at any time.
20
The convertible senior notes may be redeemed by the Company on or after October 1, 2015 if the last reported sale price of the Companys common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption. The Company may redeem the convertible senior notes in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, plus a make-whole premium payment. The make whole premium payment or delivery will be made, as the case may be, in cash, shares of the Companys common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Companys common stock, at the Companys election, equal to the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of interest on the convertible senior notes to be redeemed through October 1, 2017 (excluding interest accrued to, but excluding, the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to 4.5%. The make-whole premium is paid to holders whether or not they convert the convertible senior notes following the Companys issuance of a redemption notice.

The stock-based compensation expense for outstanding RSUs was $1.3 million and $0.7 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $3.0 million and $1.4 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Of the 1,942,978 outstanding RSUs, 653,349 vest subject to service conditions and 1,289,629 vest subject to service and a combination of market and performance conditions.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $10.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSU compensation that is anticipated to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.29 years. Remaining estimated compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock-based grants is $2.7 million, $4.1 million, $3.2 million, $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the periods ending December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. The remaining estimated compensation expense excludes the impact of performance-based RSUs not deemed probable as of June 30, 2014.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had 694,176 options vested and exercisable and $3.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options. The remaining estimated compensation expense related to the existing stock options is $0.9 million, $1.2 million, $0.9 million, $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the periods ended December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively.
12. Income Taxes
The Company has determined its interim tax provision projecting an estimated annual effective tax rate. For the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.8 million and $5.1 million, respectively, yielding an effective tax rate of 11.4% and 10.8%, respectively. The effective tax rates of 11.4.% and 10.8% differed from the expected effective tax rate of 35% due primarily to the establishment of a partial valuation allowance on our federal and state deferred tax assets, non-deductible loss on convertible debt, other non-deductible amounts and the change in the mix of income among the jurisdictions in which the Company does business.
For the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, yielding an effective tax rate of 0.4% and 0.9%, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the expected effective tax rate of 35% due primarily to the effects of recording a tax valuation allowance against the income tax benefits for the second quarter and first half of 2013, respectively.
The Company had a valuation allowance of $15.0 million as of June 30, 2014 primarily on the deferred tax assets generated for federal, state and foreign net operating losses where it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be utilized. The Company assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered based upon the consideration of many factors, including the current economic climate, its expectations of future taxable income, its ability to project such income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company is using to manage its underlying businesses. Any reversal of the valuation allowance will favorably impact the Companys results of operations in the period of reversal.
In general, it is the practice and intention of the Company to reinvest the earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had not made a provision for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes for financial reporting over the tax basis of investments in foreign subsidiaries that are essentially permanent in duration, if any exists. Generally, such amounts become subject to U.S. taxation upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax liability related to investments in these foreign subsidiaries.

13. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the combined weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the potential dilution of stock options, warrants, RSUs, convertible senior notes and Companys Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (preferred stock), outstanding during the period, if dilutive. The weighted average of potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is shown per the table below.

The impact of this dilution was not reflected in the earnings per share calculations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations because the impact was anti-dilutive. The treasury method was used to determine the shares underlying warrants, stock options and RSUs for potential dilution with an average market price of $26.41 per share and $16.85 per share for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $27.61 per share and $17.00 per share for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
14. Related Party Transactions
There were no related party transactions that occurred during the six-month ended June 30, 2014.
On August 15, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of 3PD, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement to which Mr. James J. Martell was a party. Mr. Martell is a member of the board of directors of the Company and also was an investor in, and member of the board of directors of, 3PD. Mr. Martell recused himself from, and did not participate in, deliberations of the Companys board of directors with respect to the acquisition of 3PD. Other than his interest in the purchase price paid pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Martell did not receive compensation in connection with the acquisition of 3PD. On July 12, 2013, Mr. Martell entered into a subscription agreement with the Company pursuant to which, on August 15, 2013, he invested $0.7 million of the after-tax proceeds he received in the transaction in restricted shares of the Companys common stock.
There were no other related party transactions that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2013.
15. Segment Reporting
The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief operating decision maker, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, to allocate resources and assess performance. Based on this information, the Company has determined that it has five operating segments, which are aggregated into three reportable segments. The Companys operating segments are Expedite, Freight Forwarding, Truck Brokerage, Last Mile and Intermodal. Truck Brokerage, Last Mile and Intermodal are aggregated into one Freight Brokerage reportable segment. See Note 1 of the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
These reportable segments are strategic business units through which the Company offers different services. The Company evaluates the performance of the segments primarily based on their respective net operating margin and also evaluates revenues, net revenue margin and operating income. Accordingly, interest expense and other non-operating items are not reported in segment results. In addition, the Company has disclosed a corporate segment, which is not an operating segment and includes the costs of the Companys executive and shared
24
service teams, professional services such as legal and consulting, board of directors, and certain other corporate costs associated with operating as a public company. The Company allocates charges to the reportable segments for IT services, depreciation of IT fixed assets as well as centralized recruiting and training resources. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated balance sheets and results of operations. Intra-segment transactions have been eliminated in the reportable segment results of operations whereas inter-segment transactions represent a reconciling item to consolidated results as shown below.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance based on various financial measures of the respective business segments. The chief operating decision maker does not review assets by segment for purposes of allocating resources and therefore assets by segment are not disclosed. The following schedule identifies select financial data for each of the Companys reportable segments for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively (in thousands):

Pursuant to the terms of Merger Agreement, Merger Subsidiary will be merged with and into New Breed (the Merger), with New Breed continuing as the surviving corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of XPO. The Merger Agreement provides that XPO will pay an aggregate consideration of approximately $615 million in cash and equity to acquire New Breed on a cash-free, debt-free basis, assuming an agreed-upon working capital balance as of the closing of the Merger.
The closing of the transactions contemplated in the Merger Agreement is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2014 and is subject to customary closing conditions.
Also, on July 29, 2014, in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into a commitment letter (the Commitment Letter) with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Credit Suisse AG, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets, Inc.

Executive Summary
XPO Logistics, Inc. is one of the largest asset-light providers of transportation logistics services in North America. We provide premium transportation logistics services to shippers and carriers that outsource their freight needs to us as an asset-light, third party logistics provider. As of June 30, 2014, we operated at 132 locations: 112 Company-owned branches and 20 agent-owned offices.
We offer our services through three business segments. Our freight brokerage segment places shippers freight with qualified carriers, primarily trucking companies and rail carriers. Our expedited transportation segment facilitates urgent shipments via independent over-the-road contractors and air charter carriers. Our freight forwarding segment arranges domestic and international shipments using ground, air and ocean transport through a network of agent-owned and Company-owned locations.
In September 2011, following the equity investment in the Company led by Jacobs Private Equity, LLC, we began to implement a strategy to leverage our strengthsincluding management expertise, operational scale and capital resourceswith the goals of significant growth and value creation.
By executing our strategy, we have built leading positions in some of the fastest-growing sectors of transportation logistics. In North America, we are the fourth largest provider of freight brokerage services, which, driven by an outsourcing trend, is growing at two to three times the rate of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Our acquisitions of 3PD Holding, Inc. (3PD) and Optima Service Solutions, LLC (Optima) in 2013 (further described below) made us the largest provider of heavy goods last-mile delivery logistics in North America, a $13 billion sector which, driven by outsourcing by big-box retailers and e-commerce, is growing at five to six times the rate of GDP. In part due to our acquisition of NLM in December of 2013, we now manage more expedited shipments than any other company in North America and have established a foothold in managed transportation. Expediting is growing due to a trend toward just-in-time inventories in manufacturing. Following the acquisition of Pacer in March of 2014, we are the third largest provider of intermodal services in North America and the largest provider of cross-border Mexico intermodal services, a sector that, driven by the efficiencies of long-haul rail and the growth of near-shoring of manufacturing in Mexico, is growing at three to five times the rate of GDP. We believe our broad service offering gives us a competitive advantage as many customers, particularly large shippers, focus their relationships on fewer, larger third party logistics providers with deep capacity across a wide range of services.
26
Our strategy has three main components:
| Optimization of operations. We are continuing to optimize our existing operations by growing our sales force, implementing advanced information technology, cross-selling our services and leveraging our shared carrier capacity. We have a disciplined framework of processes in place for the recruiting, training and mentoring of newly hired employees. Our salespeople market our services to hundreds of thousands of small and medium-sized prospective customers. In addition, we have a strategic and national accounts team focused on developing business relationships with the largest shippers in North America. Our network is supported by our scalable IT platform that includes sales, service, carrier and track-and-trace capabilities, as well as benchmarking and analysis. Most important to our growth strategy, we are developing a culture of passionate, world-class service for customers. |
| Acquisitions. We take a disciplined approach to acquisitions: we look for companies that are highly scalable and are a good strategic fit with our core competency. When we acquire a company, we seek to integrate it with our operations and scale it up by adding salespeople. We integrate the acquired operations with our technology platform, which connects them to our broader organization, and we give them access to our shared carrier pool. We gain more carriers, customers, lane histories and pricing histories with each acquisition, and in some cases an acquisition adds complementary services. We use these resources Company-wide to buy transportation more efficiently and to cross-sell a more complete supply chain solution to customers. Since the beginning of 2012, we have developed an active pipeline of targets. In 2012, we completed the acquisition of four non-asset third party logistics companies. We acquired another six companies in 2013, including 3PD, the largest non-asset, third party provider of heavy goods, last-mile logistics in North America, and NLM, the largest provider of web-based expedited transportation management in North America. On March 31, 2014, we acquired Pacer, the third largest provider of intermodal transportation services in North America. We plan to continue to acquire quality companies that fit our strategy for growth. |
| Cold-starts. We believe that cold-starts can generate high returns on invested capital because of the relatively low investment required and the large component of variable-based incentive compensation. We are currently ramping up 23 cold-starts: 11 in Freight Brokerage, 11 in Freight Forwarding and one in Expedited Transportation. We seek to locate our Freight Brokerage cold-starts in prime areas for sales recruitment. We plan to continue to open cold-start locations where we see the potential for strong returns. |
Rebranding of Express-1 and 3PD
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company rebranded its Express-1 business to XPO Express and its last mile delivery logistics business to XPO Last Mile. As a result of these actions, the Company accelerated the amortization of $3.3 million of indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Express-1 trade name based on the reduction in its remaining useful life. The $3.3 million of accelerated amortization represented the full value of the Express-1 trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset. The impact of rebranding the last mile business was a shortening of the useful life of the 3PD trade name definite-lived intangible asset. The last mile rebranding did not have an impact on results for the quarter.
Restructuring
On March 31, 2014, the Company initiated a facility rationalization and severance program to close facilities and reduce employment in order to improve efficiency and profitability in conjunction with its acquisition of Pacer. The program includes facility exit activities and employment reduction initiatives. For additional information refer to Note 4Restructuring Charges.
Amended Revolving Loan Credit Agreement
On April 1, 2014, we and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a $415.0 million multicurrency secured revolving loan facility with a commitment termination date of October 17, 2018. The principal amount of the commitments under the amended credit facility may be increased by an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million, subject to certain terms and conditions specified in the Amended Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement replaces and supersedes in its entirety the $125.0 million multicurrency secured Credit Agreement that we entered into on October 18, 2013. We can use the proceeds of the Amended Credit Agreement for ongoing working capital needs and other general corporate purposes, including strategic acquisitions. At June 30, 2014, the Company had no amount drawn under the Amended Credit Agreement.
27
Common Stock Offerings
On February 5, 2014, we closed a registered underwritten public offering of 15,000,000 shares of common stock, and on February 11, 2014 we closed as part of the same public offering the sale of an additional 2,250,000 shares as a result of the full exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, in each case at a price of $25.00 per share (together, the February 2014 Offering). We received $413.2 million in net proceeds from the February 2014 Offering after underwriting discounts and expenses.
Convertible Debt Conversions
To date, we have entered into transactions pursuant to which we have issued an aggregate of 1,405,189 shares of our common stock to certain holders of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due October 1, 2017 (the Notes) in connection with the conversion of $23.1 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Certain of these transactions included induced conversions pursuant to which we paid the holder a market-based premium in cash. The negotiated market-based premiums, in addition to the difference between the current fair value and the book value of the Notes, are reflected in interest expense. The number of shares of common stock issued in the foregoing transactions equals the number of shares of common stock presently issuable to holders of the Notes upon conversion under the original terms of the Notes.
Statement of Operations Presentation
Certain prior period statement of operations line items have been conformed to the 2014 presentation, including the retitling of direct expense to cost of purchased transportation and services and the addition of the direct operating expense category. The conformed line items had no impact on previously reported income. The conformed statements of operations data for the years ended December 2013, 2012 and 2011 and the three-months ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2013 are shown below on a consolidated basis and for the Freight Brokerage segment.

Other Reporting Disclosures
The following section describes some of our revenue and expense categories and is provided to facilitate investors understanding of the discussion of our financial results below.
Revenue
Revenue is generated through the rates, fuel surcharges and other fees we charge our customers for our portfolio of freight transportation services and is impacted by changes in volume, product mix, length of haul and route changes. The freight transportation services we provide include truckload, less-than-truckload, and intermodal brokerage, last-mile delivery logistics services, time-critical, urgent shipment solutions, and freight forwarding.
Cost of purchased transportation and services
Cost of purchased transportation and services is primarily attributable to the cost of procuring freight transportation services for our customers, commissions paid to independent station owners in our freight forwarding business, and insurance and truck leasing expense in our expedited business. Our non-asset operating model provides transportation capacity through variable cost third-party transportation arrangements, therefore enabling us to be flexible to adapt to changes in economic or industry conditions. Our primary
29
means of providing capacity are through our base of independent owner operators and contract carriers for ground transportation and air charter services in Expedited Transportation and our network of independent truck, rail, ocean and air carriers in Freight Brokerage and Freight Forwarding.
Net revenue
Net revenue is total revenue less the cost of purchased transportation and services. This discussion and analysis refers from time to time to net revenue margin. We use the term net revenue margin to refer to the quotient, expressed as a percentage, of net revenue divided by revenue.
Direct operating expense
Direct operating expenses are both fixed and variable expenses directly relating to our freight brokerage intermodal and last mile operations and consist of intermodal equipment lease expense, depreciation expense, maintenance and repair costs, and property taxes; fixed terminal and cargo handling expenses; and operating costs of our local drayage and last mile warehousing facilities. Intermodal equipment maintenance and repair costs consist of the costs related to the upkeep of the intermodal equipment fleet. Fixed terminal and cargo handling costs primarily relate to the fixed rent and storage expense charged by terminal operators. Operating costs of our local drayage and last mile warehousing facilities consist mainly of labor, rent, maintenance, utilities and other facility related costs.
Sales, general and administrative expense
Sales, general and administrative expense consists of costs relating to customer acquisition, carrier procurement, billing, customer service, salaries and related expenses of the executive and administrative staff, acquisition-related costs, office expenses, technology services, professional fees and other purchased services relating to the aforementioned functions, and depreciation (excluding railcar, container and chassis depreciation) and amortization expense.

Consolidated Results
Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
Our consolidated revenue for the second quarter of 2014 increased 323.8% to $581.0 million from $137.1 million in the second quarter of 2013. This increase was driven largely by the increased revenues due to the acquisitions of Pacer and 3PD as well as the revenue attributable to the organic growth of our Freight Brokerage locations.
Total net revenue dollars for the second quarter of 2014 increased 530.1% to $121.9 million from $19.3 million in the second quarter of 2013. Net revenue margin was 21.0% in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 14.1% in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in net revenue margin primarily relates to the acquisitions of Pacer, 3PD and NLM as well as organic improvement to net revenue margin at our Freight Brokerage locations.
30
Direct operating expense for the second quarter of 2014 was $27.2 million, or 4.7% as a percentage of revenue. Direct operating expense increased due to the acquisitions of Pacer and 3PD which included certain intermodal, drayage and warehousing operations. Prior to the acquisition of Pacer in March 2014 and 3PD in August 2013, we had no such operations.
Sales, general and administrative (SG&A) expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 18.3% in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 24.3% in the second quarter of 2013. SG&A expense increased by $73.2 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 due to: acquisitions; sales force recruitment; investment in technology; costs associated with new and existing Freight Brokerage offices; $0.6 million of restructuring, integration and transaction costs related to the acquisition of Pacer; as well as increased intangible asset amortization relating to the acquisitions of Pacer and 3PD. SG&A expense during the quarter also included the accelerated amortization of $3.3 million in indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Express-1 trade name based on the reduction in remaining useful life as a result of the name change of the business to XPO Express.
Interest expense for the second quarter of 2014 increased 9.6% to $3.4 million from $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2013 mainly due to interest expense related to the unused commitment fees on our revolving credit agreement.
For the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.8 million, yielding an effective tax rate of 11.4%. The effective tax rate of 11.4% differed from the Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the establishment of a partial valuation allowance on our federal and state deferred tax assets, non-deductible loss on convertible debt, other non-deductible amounts and the change in the mix of income among the jurisdictions in which we do business. For the second quarter of 2013, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million, yielding an effective tax rate of 0.4%. The effective tax rate of 0.4% differed from the Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily due to the effects of recording a tax valuation allowance against the income tax benefit for the second quarter of 2013.
The decrease in net loss was due primarily to the increase in net revenue as well as lower SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Our consolidated revenue for the first six months of 2014 increased 243.9% to $863.4 million from $251.1 million in the first six months of 2013. This increase was driven largely by the increased revenues due to the acquisitions of Pacer and 3PD as well as the revenue attributable to the organic growth of our Freight Brokerage locations.
Total net revenue dollars for the first six months of 2014 increased 406.4% to $180.3 million from $35.6 million in the first six months of 2013. Net revenue margin was 20.9% in the first six months of 2014 as compared to 14.2% in the first six months of 2013. The increase in net revenue margin primarily relates to the acquisitions of Pacer, 3PD and NLM as well as organic improvement to net revenue margin at our Freight Brokerage locations.
Direct operating expense for the first six months of 2014 was $31.1 million, or 3.6% as a percentage of revenue. Direct operating expense increased due to the acquisitions of Pacer and 3PD which included certain intermodal, drayage and warehousing operations. Prior to the acquisition of Pacer in March 2014 and 3PD in August 2013, we had no such operations.
SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 21.1% in the first six months of 2014 as compared to 24.3% in the first six months of 2013. SG&A expense increased by $121.4 million in the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013 due to: acquisitions; sales force recruitment; investment in technology; costs associated with new and existing Freight Brokerage offices; $11.4 million of restructuring, integration and transaction costs related to the acquisition of Pacer; as well as increased intangible asset amortization relating to the acquisitions of Pacer and 3PD. SG&A expense during the period also included the accelerated amortization of $3.3 million in indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Express-1 trade name based on the reduction in remaining useful life as a result of the name change of the business to XPO Express.
Interest expense for the first six months of 2014 increased 118.2% to $13.5 million from $6.2 million in the first six months of 2013 mainly due to an undrawn debt commitment fee of $4.5 million in relation to our acquisition of Pacer, interest expense related to the conversion of our convertible senior notes of $2.3 million, and $1.0 million of interest expense related to our revolving credit agreement offset by lower interest on our convertible senior notes as a result of conversions.
For the first six months of 2014, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $5.1 million, yielding an effective tax rate of 10.8%. The effective tax rate of 10.8% differed from the Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the establishment of a partial valuation allowance on our federal and state deferred tax assets, non-deductible loss on convertible debt, other non-deductible amounts and the change in the mix of income among the jurisdictions in which we do business. For the first six months of 2013, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $0.3 million, yielding an effective tax rate of 0.9%. The effective tax rate of 0.9% differed from the Federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily due to the effects of recording a tax valuation allowance against the income tax benefit for the first six months of 2013.

The increase in net loss was due primarily to higher SG&A expenses and interest expense.

Note: Total depreciation and amortization for the Expedited Transportation reportable segment included in both cost of purchased transportation and services and SG&A was $5.0 million and $0.3 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $6.6 million and $0.6 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Expedited Transportation
Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
Revenue in our Expedited Transportation segment increased 37.0% to $36.2 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $26.4 million in the second quarter of 2013. This growth was driven by the acquisition of NLM as well as organic growth at XPO Air Charter. The organic growth in our air charter business was due to improved expedite market conditions.
33
Expedited Transportation net revenue dollars increased 165.2% to $11.2 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2013. Expedited Transportation net revenue margin was 30.8% in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 15.9% in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in net revenue margin is primarily attributable to the acquisition of NLM which recognizes revenue on a net basis. Excluding NLM, our expedited net revenue increased primarily as a result of higher volumes at XPO Air Charter and increased revenue per load at XPO Express.
SG&A expense increased 281.3% to $11.5 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase was due to the acquisition of NLM and the accelerated amortization of $3.3 million in indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Express-1 trade name based on the reduction in remaining useful life as a result of the name change of the business to XPO Express. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense increased to 31.9% in the second quarter of 2014 compared to 11.3% in the second quarter of 2013.
Operating income decreased to a loss of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $1.2 million of income in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in operating income was primarily related to the accelerated amortization of the indefinite-lived intangible asset related to the Express-1 trade name, which caused a one-time non-cash charge of $3.3 million.
Managements growth strategy for our Expedited Transportation segment is based on:
| Targeted investments to expand the sales and service workforce, in order to capture key opportunities in specialized areas (e.g., cross-border, refrigeration and air charter); |
| An increased focus on carrier recruitment and retention, as well as improved utilization of the current carrier fleet; |
| Technology upgrades to improve efficiency in sales and carrier procurement; |
| Selective acquisitions of non-asset based expedited businesses that would benefit from our scale and potential access to capital; and |
| Cross-selling of expedited transportation services to customers of our other business segments. |
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Revenue in our Expedited Transportation segment increased 39.2% to $70.0 million in the first six months of 2014 from $50.3 million in the first six months of 2013. This growth was driven by the acquisition of NLM as well as organic growth at XPO Air Charter.
Expedited Transportation net revenue dollars increased 181.0% to $22.5 million in the first six months of 2014 from $8.0 million in the first six months of 2013. Expedited Transportation net revenue margin was 32.2% in the first six months of 2014 as compared to 15.9% in the first six months of 2013. The increase in net revenue margin is primarily attributable to the acquisition of NLM which recognizes revenue on a net basis. Excluding NLM, our expedited net revenue increased primarily as a result of higher volumes at XPO Air Charter and increased revenue per load at XPO Express.
SG&A expense increased 215.1% to $19.2 million in the first six months of 2014 from $6.1 million in the first six months of 2013. The increase was due to the acquisition of NLM and the accelerated amortization of $3.3 million in indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Express-1 trade name based on the reduction in remaining useful life as a result of the name change of the business to XPO Express. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense increased to 27.4% in the first six months of 2014 compared to 12.1% in the first six months of 2013.
Operating income increased to $3.4 million in the first six months of 2014 compared to $1.9 million in the first six months of 2013. The increase in operating income was primarily related to the acquisition of NLM and organic improvement in profitability at XPO Air Charter offset by the $3.3 million in accelerated amortization of the indefinite-lived intangible asset related to the Express-1 trade name.

Freight Forwarding
Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
Revenue in our Freight Forwarding segment increased 180.2% to $54.2 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $19.3 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase was primarily related to the acquisition of Pacer and the addition of Pacers freight forwarding business to our Freight Forwarding segment as well as increased volume in our existing operations.
Freight Forwardings net revenue dollars increased 118.4% to $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in net revenue dollars was primarily driven by the acquisition of Pacer. Freight Forwarding net revenue margin decreased to 10.3% in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 13.3% in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in net revenue margin was primarily driven by the acquisition of Pacer as well as a decrease in net revenue margin in our domestic business. International shipments typically generate higher revenue, but at a lower margin, than domestic shipments. The Pacer freight forwarding business that we acquired is almost exclusively international shipments which have a lower gross margin than our historical combined Freight Forwarding operations.
SG&A expense increased 211.8% to $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in SG&A expense was primarily due to the acquisition of Pacer. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense increased to 11.9% in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 10.7% in the second quarter of 2013.
Operating income was a loss of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $0.5 million of income in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in operating income was primarily related to acquisition of Pacer and the decrease in net revenues at our existing operations.
Managements growth strategy for Freight Forwarding is based on:
| Plans to open new offices in key U.S. markets, which will consist of both company-owned branches and independently-owned stations; |
| Growth of international shipments; |
| Technology upgrades to improve efficiency in sales and carrier procurement; |
| Selective acquisitions of complementary, non-asset based freight forwarding businesses; and |
| Cross-selling of freight forwarding services to customers of our other business segments. |

Corporate
Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
Corporate SG&A expense in the second quarter of 2014 increased by $4.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2013. Salaries and benefits increased due to the acquisition of Pacer and an increase in headcount in IT and corporate shared services. Purchased services increased in the second quarter of 2014 due largely to acquisition-related transaction costs.
Corporate SG&A for the second quarter of 2014 included: $0.6 million of restructuring charges related to the acquisition of Pacer; $1.3 million of acquisition-related transaction costs; $1.7 million of litigation-related legal costs; and $1.6 million of non-cash share based compensation.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Corporate SG&A expense in the first six months of 2014 increased by $17.4 million compared to the first six months of 2013. Salaries and benefits increased due to the costs of restructuring at Pacer and an increase in headcount in IT and corporate shared services. Purchased services increased in the first six months of 2014 due largely to acquisition-related transaction costs. Other SG&A expense increased due largely to the costs of restructuring facility leases at Pacer.
Corporate SG&A for the first six months of 2014 included: $7.0 million of restructuring charges related to the acquisition of Pacer, including $0.8 million of non-cash share based compensation; $6.0 million of acquisition-related transaction costs; $3.0 million of litigation-related legal costs; and $3.0 million of non-cash share based compensation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
As of June 30, 2014, we had $210.7 million of working capital, including cash of $111.6 million, compared to working capital of $70.7 million, including cash of $21.5 million, as of December 31, 2013. This increase of $140.0 million in working capital during the six-month period was mainly due to the common stock offering in February 2014 offset by cash used for the acquisition of Pacer, operations and capital expenditures.
36
We continually evaluate our liquidity requirements, capital needs and availability of capital resources based on our operating needs and our planned growth initiatives. In addition to our existing cash balances and net cash provided by operating activities, in certain circumstances we may also use debt financings and issuances of equity or equity-related securities to fund our operating needs and growth initiatives. See the discussion below in the Debt Facilities section regarding our new amended $415.0 million multicurrency secured revolving loan credit facility.
We believe that our existing cash balances and availability under our new amended revolving credit facility will be sufficient to finance our existing operations.
Cash Flow
During the first six months of 2014, $26.6 million was used in cash from operations compared to $49.1 million used for the comparable period in 2013. The primary use of cash for the period was payment of transportation services and various SG&A expenses.
Cash generated from revenue equaled $806.1 million for the first six months of 2014 as compared to $227.0 million for the same period in 2013 and correlates directly with the revenue increase between the two periods. Cash flow increases are related primarily to volume and margin increases between the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Cash used for payment of transportation services for the first six months of 2014 equaled $683.4 million as compared to $213.8 million for the same period in 2013. The increase in cash outflows between the two periods also directly correlates to the increase in revenues between the two periods.
Other operating uses of cash included SG&A items, which equaled $144.5 million and $57.8 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Payroll represents the most significant SG&A item. For the first six months of 2014, cash used for payroll equaled $64.2 million as compared to $26.5 million for the same period in 2013.
Investing activities used approximately $210.6 million during the first six months of 2014 compared to a use of $23.4 million from these activities during the same period in 2013. During the first six months of 2014, $201.0 million was used in acquisitions and $9.8 million was used to purchase fixed assets offset by $0.2 million generated by other investing activities. During the same period in 2013, $19.7 million was used in acquisitions and $3.8 million was used to purchase fixed assets while $0.1 million was received from other investing activities.
Financing activities generated approximately $327.3 million for the first six months of 2014 compared to $1.7 million used for the same period in 2013. Our main source of cash from financing activities during the first six months of 2014 was the $413.2 million of net proceeds from the issuance of stock while our primary uses of cash were the $75.0 million used to repay borrowings on the revolving credit facility, payment of $8.5 million as collateral for Pacers outstanding letters of credit upon termination of their separate credit agreement, dividends paid to preferred stockholders of $1.5 million and $0.9 million used for other financing activities. During the same period in 2013, our primary use of cash was the dividend paid to preferred stockholders of $1.5 million and $0.2 million used for other financing activities.
Debt Facilities
On April 1, 2014, we and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, as borrowers, entered into the $415.0 million multicurrency secured Amended Credit Agreement with the lender parties thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent for such lenders, with a maturity of five years. The principal amount of the commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement may be increased by an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million, subject to certain terms and conditions specified in the Amended Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement replaces and supersedes in its entirety the $125.0 million multicurrency secured Revolving Loan Credit Agreement that we entered into on October 18, 2013.
The proceeds of the Amended Credit Agreement may be used by us and our subsidiaries for ongoing working capital needs, other general corporate purposes, including strategic acquisitions, and fees and expenses in connection with the transaction. At June 30, 2014, the Company had no amount drawn under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance, in all material respects, with all covenants related to the Amended Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2014. Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at our option, the one, two, three or six month (or such other period less than one month or greater than six months as the lenders may agree) LIBOR rate plus a margin of 1.75% to 2.25%, or a base rate plus a margin of 0.75% to 1.25%. The borrowers are required to pay an undrawn commitment fee equal to 0.25% or 0.375% of the quarterly average undrawn portion of the commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement, as well as customary letter of credit fees. The margin added to LIBOR, or base rate, will depend on our quarterly average availability of the commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement.
37
All obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries, provided that no foreign subsidiary guarantees, and no assets of any foreign subsidiary secure, any obligations of any domestic borrower. The Amended Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that are customary for agreements of this type. Among other things, the covenants in the Amended Credit Agreement limit our ability to, with certain exceptions: incur indebtedness; grant liens; engage in certain mergers, consolidations, acquisitions and dispositions; make certain investments and restricted payments; and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. In certain circumstances, the Amended Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain minimum EBITDA or, at our election, maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.00 to 1.00. If an event of default under the Amended Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, the commitments thereunder may be terminated and the principal amount outstanding thereunder, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owed thereunder, may be declared immediately due and payable. Certain subsidiaries acquired by us in the future may be excluded from the restrictions contained in certain of the foregoing covenants. We do not believe that the covenants contained in the Amended Credit Agreement will impair our ability to execute our strategy.

In addition to the obligations in the table above, we are contractually obligated to pay up to $21.9 million of purchase price holdbacks retained in connection with acquisitions, subject to resolution of, and set-off with respect to, any indemnifiable claims. The timing of such payments depends on the resolution of the underlying indemnifiable claims, and we cannot predict when such payments may be due. We do not have any other material commitments that have not been disclosed elsewhere.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not a party to any transactions that would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements under Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. In certain circumstances, those estimates and assumptions can affect amounts reported in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We have made our best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. We do not believe there is a great likelihood that materially different amounts will be reported related to the accounting policies described above. However, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 includes a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 includes a summary of our critical accounting policies. For the period ended June 30, 2014, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies.

New Pronouncements
On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for us on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
The following discussion about our market risk disclosures involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk. As of June 30, 2014, we held $128.6 million of cash and restricted cash in cash depository and money market funds held in depository accounts at 16 financial institutions. The primary market risk associated with these investments is liquidity risk. We have exposure to changes in interest rates on our revolving credit facility. The interest rates on our revolving credit facility fluctuate based on LIBOR or a base rate plus an applicable margin. Assuming our $415.0 million revolving credit facility was fully drawn at June 30, 2014, a hypothetical 100-basis-point change in the interest rate would increase our annual interest expense by $4.2 million. We do not use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk or to speculate on future changes in interest rates.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk. Our Canadian-based businesses and results of operations are exposed to movements in the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar foreign currency exchange rate. A portion of our revenue is denominated in Canadian dollars. If the U.S. dollar strengthens against the Canadian dollar, our revenues reported in U.S. dollars would decline. With regard to operating expense, our primary exposure to foreign currency exchange risk relates to operating expense incurred in Canadian dollars. If the Canadian dollar strengthens, costs reported in U.S. dollars will increase. Movements in the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar foreign currency exchange rate did not have a material effect on our revenue during the three- or six-month periods ending June 30, 2014. A hypothetical ten percent change in average exchange rates versus the U.S. dollar would not have resulted in a material change to our earnings.
From time to time, we use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce part of the variability in certain forecasted Canadian dollar denominated cash flows. Generally, these instruments are for maturities of six months or less. We consider several factors when evaluating hedges of our forecasted foreign currency exposures, such as significance of the exposure, offsetting economic exposures and potential costs of hedging. We do not enter into derivative transactions for purposes other than hedging economic exposures. At June 30, 2014, we had no outstanding forward contracts to reduce the variability in our Canadian dollar denominated revenues and operating expenses.
Convertible Debt Outstanding. The fair market value of our outstanding issue of convertible senior notes is subject to interest rate and market price risk due to the convertible feature of the notes and other factors. Generally the fair market value of fixed interest rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The fair market value of the notes may also increase as the market price of our stock rises and decrease as the market price of our stock falls. Interest rate and market value changes affect the fair market value of the convertible senior notes, and may affect the prices at which we would be able to repurchase such convertible senior notes were we to do so. These changes do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. For additional information on the fair value of our outstanding convertible senior notes, refer to Note 2Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies of the condensed consolidated financial statements included within.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such time such that the material information required to be included in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, and was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.

Changes in internal controls. Except as described below, there have not been any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting. The Company completed its acquisition of Pacer on March 31, 2014 and is in the process of integrating the acquired business into the Companys overall internal controls over financial reporting process. For additional information on the acquisition of Pacer, refer to Note 3Acquisitions of the condensed consolidated financial statements included within.
We are involved, and will continue to be involved, in numerous legal proceedings arising out of the conduct of our business. These proceedings may include, among other matters, claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with the transportation of freight and employment-related claims, including claims involving asserted breaches of employee restrictive covenants and tortious interference with contract. These proceedings also include numerous purported class-action lawsuits, multi-plaintiff and individual lawsuits and state tax and other administrative proceedings that claim that our owner operators or contract carriers should be treated as employees, rather than independent contractors. These lawsuits and proceedings may seek substantial monetary damages (including claims for unpaid wages, overtime, failure to provide meal and rest periods, unreimbursed business expenses and other items), injunctive relief, or both.
We believe that we have adequately accrued for, or have adequate purchase price holdbacks with respect to, the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable, and there was no indication of a reasonable possibility that a material loss, or additional material loss (including in excess of any applicable purchase price holdback), may have been incurred. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any matters to which we are presently party will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In addition to the information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.
