Property and equipment increased by approximately $65.4 million from $771.1 as of December 31, 2023 to $836.5 million as of December 31,2024. This increase is primarily attributable to the purchase of $144.2 million of revenue equipment partially offset by the disposal of approximately $93.8 million of revenue equipment during 2024. Also contributing to the increase was the purchase of property in El Paso, Texas that will serve as an additional terminal for our truckload operations and the construction of a driver training facility at our corporate headquarters in Tontitown, Arkansas. Partially offsetting the increase to property and equipment was an impairment loss of $6.4 million which resulted from management’s assessment that the market conditions for used revenue equipment had deteriorated to an extent that required a test for recoverability and subsequent impairment charge against certain asset groups of used trucks and trailers. 

Accounts payable decreased from $62.7 million at December 31, 2023 to $31.2 million at December 31, 2024. This decrease was primarily attributable to payments made during 2024 for new revenue equipment that was invoiced or delivered, but not yet paid as of December 31, 2023. This decrease was also attributable to a decrease in the amounts payable to third party carriers as of December 31, 2024. Accounts payable accruals can vary significantly at the end of each reporting period depending on the timing of the actual date of payment in relation to the last day of the reporting period.

The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in auto liability claims accrued during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to auto liability claims accrued for the year ended December 31, 2023.

For 2025, we expect to purchase 293 new trucks and 300 trailers while continuing to sell or trade equipment that has reached the end of its life cycle. Management believes we will be able to finance our existing needs for working capital over the next twelve months, as well as acquisitions of revenue equipment and any other asset acquisitions or capital transactions during such period, with cash balances, cash flows from operations, and borrowings believed to be
