Christopher Kuhn has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Schneider National’s potential for growth and stability. Despite concerns about fluctuating freight volumes, the demand has remained steadier than anticipated, with domestic intermodal volumes showing resilience. This stability, coupled with Schneider’s diverse business mix and strategic partnerships, such as those with UNP and CPKC, positions the company well for future improvements in intermodal pricing.
Additionally, while the 2026 EPS estimate has been slightly reduced due to slower margin progression, the overall financial outlook remains positive. The company’s Network Truckload segment is expected to see significant profit improvements as pricing conditions normalize. Furthermore, the Dedicated business has shown stability, and recent acquisitions have strengthened its position. These factors, along with a strong new business pipeline, support the Buy rating as Schneider National is poised for operational and financial enhancements.
