.7% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2024 to 30.2% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily due to a quarter-over-quarter increase in the percentage of miles driven by third-party owner-operators as opposed to company-employed drivers.

Depreciation increased from 17.3% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2024 to 23.0% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2025. The increase is primarily attributed to management’s change in accounting estimates related to the salvage values and useful lives of revenue equipment during the year ended December 31, 2024. During 2024, the Company conducted a review of its revenue equipment and determined that changes in market conditions and expected asset usage warranted a revision to the estimated useful lives and salvage values of certain equipment. As a result, during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company reduced the estimated useful lives of its trailer equipment and lowered the estimated salvage values of revenue equipment to better reflect their expected residual values at the end of their service periods. This change in accounting estimates shortened the depreciable life and increased the depreciable base for a significant portion of the company’s revenue equipment, thus increasing future monthly depreciation expense for the affected assets. In addition to the effect from the Company’s previous change in accounting estimate, the year-over-year increase can also be attributed to the interaction of a decrease in operating revenues with the fixed-cost nature of depreciation expense.

Gain on disposition of equipment increased from 0.1% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2024 to 4.8% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2025.The increase was primarily due to the disposition of revenue equipment effected by management’s change in accounting estimates related to the salvage value and useful lives of revenue equipment during the year ended December 31, 2024. The reduced estimated salvage values had a direct impact on gains recognized when disposing revenue equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Non-operating income increased from 0.1% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2024 to 2.4% of revenues, before fuel surcharges, during the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by growth in the market value
