Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On August 20, 2024, Universal Logistics Holdings, Inc. (“ULH” or the “Company”) announced that in order to best position the Company to execute on its highest priorities, it was terminating the operations of subsidiary, Universal Capacity Solutions, LLC (“UCS”), effective August 23, 2024. UCS is a provider of third-party freight brokerage services. In connection with the announcement, UCS informed a total of approximately 125 employees on August 20, 2024 in Nashville, TN of the termination of their employment. UCS terminated approximately 112 of these employees on August 20, 2024, and the Company anticipates that the remainder’s employment will terminate by September 13, 2024.
The Company currently estimates that it will incur pre-tax charges in the range of $6.0 million to $7.0 million, primarily consisting of severance, related costs, goodwill impairment, and other charges, of which $2.0 million to $3.0 million are expected to be future cash expenditures. The majority of these costs are expected to be incurred during the third quarter of 2024. The charges that we expect to incur are subject to a number of assumptions, including local law requirements, and actual expenses may differ materially from the estimates disclosed above.

All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including our future results of operations or financial condition and timing and charges associated with our initiatives are forward-looking statements.

We caution you that the foregoing may not include all of the forward-looking statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
