   Fair Value Measurements– Certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value within the financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. For additional information with respect to fair value measurements, see Note 18 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
    
   Reportable Segments– The operations of the Company and its subsidiaries are all in the motor carrier segment and are aggregated into a single reporting segment in accordance with the aggregation criteria under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The operations of these subsidiaries can generally be classified into either truckload services or brokerage and logistics services. The Company has carefully considered the segment reporting requirements under ASC 280 for the year-ended  December 31, 2024. Both our truckload operations and our brokerage/logistics operations have similar economic characteristics and are impacted by virtually the same economic factors as discussed elsewhere in this Report. Based on the Company’s segment identification, interpretation of the aggregation criteria outlined in ASC 280-10-50-11, and the similar qualitative and quantitative economic characteristics of the Company’s operating segments, the operations of the Company is aggregated into a single motor carrier segment.
    
   The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, utilizes the metrics of net income and operating ratio to evaluate company performance and in competitive analysis when comparing to competing companies. The accounting policies of the motor carrier segment are the same as those described in the summary of accounting policies found in this report. For purposes of this report, net income reflects the profitability of our operations by calculating the total earnings after deducting operating expenses, interest expense, income taxes and any other applicable costs from total revenue. The measure of net income is reported on the consolidated statement of operations as consolidated net (loss) income. Operating ratio is the measure of our efficiency in managing operating expenses relative to revenue generation. It is calculated as total operating expenses as a percentage of total operating revenue.
