    NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yellow Corporation (NASDAQ:YELL) reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022. Operating revenue was $1.360 billion and operating income was $49.1 million, which included a $1.1 million net gain on property disposals. In comparison, operating revenue in the third quarter of 2021 was $1.301 billion and operating income was $48.4 million.

    Net income for third quarter 2022 was $4.8 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to net income of $8.3 million, or $0.16 per share, in the third quarter of 2021.

    On a non-GAAP basis, the Company generated Adjusted EBITDA of $90.6 million in third quarter 2022 compared to $94.4 million in the prior-year comparable quarter (as detailed in the reconciliation below). The last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA as of September 30, 2022, was $401.7 million compared to $248.4 million as of September 30, 2021 (as detailed in the reconciliation below).

    "For the sixth consecutive quarter, revenue and operating income improved on a year-over-year basis," said Darren Hawkins, chief executive officer. "Operating income improved despite a $19.4 million increase in third-party liability claims expense compared to a year ago, mostly due to unfavorable development of prior-year claims, including the resolution of several of our most significant outstanding claims. We continue to closely manage purchase transportation expense and as a percentage of revenue, it was the lowest it has been in more than two years. While demand for capacity is moderating compared to the elevated levels over the past several quarters, the LTL pricing environment remains favorable.

    "In September, we successfully implemented phase one of the network optimization in the western United States. Phase one included integrating 89 legacy YRC Freight and Reddaway terminals to operate as a super-regional network. The early results are meeting expectations and customers benefit by having one driver pick up and deliver both regional and long-haul shipments. We remain focused on applying lessons learned from phase one and integrating the rest of the network around the end of the year. We expect the network optimization to lead to improved asset utilization, enhanced network efficiencies, cost savings and to create capacity without the need to add new terminals.

    "In October, we enhanced the Company's liquidity by extending the maturity of the ABL facility from January 2024 to January 2026. We also increased the size of the facility from $450 million to $500 million and reduced the fixed portion of the interest rate by 50 basis points. Executing this extension reflects the improving financial performance of the Company and is an important first step on the path to refinancing our capital structure. I appreciate the continued support of our lenders," concluded Hawkins.

    Operational Update

    • The operating ratio for third quarter 2022 was 96.4 compared to 96.3 in third quarter 2021.



    • Including fuel surcharge, third quarter 2022 LTL revenue per hundredweight increased 24.6% and LTL revenue per shipment increased 22.4% compared to the same period in 2021. Excluding fuel surcharge, third quarter LTL revenue per hundredweight increased 12.8% and LTL revenue per shipment increased 10.9%.



    • Third quarter 2022 LTL tonnage per workday decreased 16.2% when compared to third quarter 2021.

    Capital Expenditures Update

    • In third quarter 2022, the Company invested $68.1 million in capital expenditures. This compares to $96.7 million in the third quarter of 2021.



    • Full-year 2022 capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $210 million to $230 million compared to the previous range of $250 million to $300 million.

    Liquidity Update

    • The Company's available liquidity, which is comprised of cash and cash equivalents and Managed Accessibility (as detailed in the supplemental information provided below) under its ABL facility, was $325.8 million as of September 30, 2022, compared to $409.2 million a year ago.



    • The Company's outstanding debt was $1.603 billion as of September 30, 2022, compared to $1.614 billion as of September 30, 2021.



    • For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash provided by operating activities was $121.3 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of $9.3 million for the same period in 2021.

    Review of Financial Results

    Yellow Corporation will host a conference call with the investment community today, Wednesday, November 2, 2022, beginning at 4:30 p.m. ET.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

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

    EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have the following limitations:

    • EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or fund principal payments on our outstanding debt;



    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or fund principal payments on our outstanding debt, letter of credit expenses, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to debt, non-cash charges, charges or losses (subject to the conditions above), or nonrecurring consulting fees, among other items;



    • Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will have to be replaced in the future and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;



    • Equity-based compensation is an element of our long-term incentive compensation program for certain employees, although Adjusted EBITDA excludes employee equity-based compensation expense when presenting our ongoing operating performance for a particular period; and



    • Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

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

The limitation calculation is updated quarterly based on TTM Adjusted EBITDA, and any necessary adjustment resulting from this limitation, if applicable, will be presented here.  The sum of the quarters may not necessarily equal TTM Adjusted EBITDA due to the expiration of adjustments from prior periods.
