XPO, Inc reports Q1 adjusted EPS 73c, consensus 65c

Reports Q1 revenue $1.95B, consensus $1.98B. Mario Harik, chief executive officer of XPO, said, “We carried our momentum into 2025 and delivered first quarter financial results that outperformed the industry. Companywide, we reported adjusted EBITDA of $278 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.73, while operating more efficiently. In North American LTL, we reported a sequential improvement in adjusted operating ratio to 85.9%, which outpaced seasonality. This brings our cumulative improvement in adjusted operating ratio to 370 basis points over two years in a soft freight environment. We accelerated first quarter yield growth, excluding fuel, to 6.9% and improved revenue per shipment sequentially for the ninth consecutive quarter, underpinned by record service quality. At the same time, we became more cost-efficient through tech-driven labor productivity and third-party linehaul insourcing. This included a year-over-year reduction in purchased transportation expense of 53%.” Harik continued, “Our plan is driving results, with a long runway for margin expansion, supported by superior service and high-return investments in our network. We’re executing to achieve years of outperformance, regardless of the freight market environment.”
