              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)
                                  June 30, 1999

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 1999 include the accounts of Landair
Corporation and its subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 include the
accounts comprising the truckload operations of Forward Air Corporation
(formerly known as Landair Services, Inc.) ("Forward Air"), and are based on
historical amounts included in the consolidated financial statements of Forward
Air. On July 9, 1998, the Board of Directors of Forward Air authorized the
separation of Forward Air into two publicly-held corporations, one owning and
operating the deferred air freight operations and the other owning and operating
the truckload operations (the "Spin-off").

The Spin-off was effected on September 23, 1998 through the distribution to
shareholders of Forward Air of all the outstanding stock of a new truckload
holding company, Landair Corporation. Pursuant to the Spin-off, the common stock
of Landair Corporation was distributed on a pro rata basis of one share of
Landair Corporation common stock for every one share of Forward Air common stock
held. Effective with the Spin-off, Landair Corporation is the legal entity that
owns and operates the truckload operations through its operating subsidiaries,
and Forward Air is the legal entity that continues to own and operate the
deferred air freight operations through its operating subsidiaries.

As used in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the
term "Company" refers to Landair Corporation and its subsidiaries for the three
and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 and to the truckload operations of
Forward Air for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998.

These historical financial statements include the results of operations directly
related to the truckload operations of Forward Air for the period presented
prior to the Spin-off. Significant changes could have occurred in the funding
and operations of the Company had it been operated as an independent stand-alone
entity during that period, which could have had a significant impact on its
results of operations. As a result, the financial information included in these
financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 is
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the Company which
might have occurred had it been an independent stand-alone entity.

The Company is an irregular route, high-service-level truckload carrier that
transports a wide range of commodities in both intrastate and interstate
commerce. The Company provides dry van

common carrier and dedicated contract carriage for shippers of a variety of
products in the medium- and short-haul markets.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending December 31, 1999. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Landair
Corporation annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

The balance sheet at December 31, 1998 has been derived from the audited
financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the financial
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.

2. PURCHASE OF ASSETS OF LAKER EXPRESS, INC.

On January 7, 1999, the Company acquired certain operating assets of Laker
Express, Inc. ("Laker"), a truckload dry van carrier based in Indianapolis,
Indiana which operated predominantly in the Midwest in the short- to medium-haul
markets. The purchase price for Laker consisted of approximately $12.9 million
in cash and the issuance of a note payable of $400,000. The source of funds for
the cash consideration paid to Laker was from borrowings under the Company's
credit facilities.

The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Identified intangible assets
acquired totaled approximately $1.5 million and are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over a life of five years. Goodwill totaled approximately
$2.6 million and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a life of 20
years. Accumulated amortization of the identified intangible assets and goodwill
totaled $180,000 at June 30, 1999. The results of operations for the acquired
business are included in the condensed consolidated statement of income from the
acquisition date forward.

The pro forma unaudited results of operations for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1998, assuming the acquisition of Laker assets as of the beginning of
the periods presented, are as follows:

</TABLE>

The pro forma results of operations do not purport to represent what the
Company's results of operations would have been had the transaction, in fact,
occurred at the beginning of the periods presented or to project the Company's
results of operations in any future period.

3.  LONG-TERM DEBT

In January 1999, the Company obtained an additional equipment financing
facility, providing borrowing capacity of up to $15 million. A portion of the
availability under this new line was immediately used to fund the acquisition of
assets from Laker. The facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.75% to 2.0%,
expires in December 2000, and is secured by certain revenue equipment. Among
other restrictions, the terms of the line of credit require maintenance of
certain levels of net worth and other financial ratios. The Company did not
comply with certain financial covenants at June 30, 1999 and, accordingly,
obtained a waiver and amendment to such covenants.

4.  SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

In February 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to
500,000 shares of the Company's common stock in open market purchases. The
amount and timing of any repurchases are to be at such prices as management of
the Company from time to time approves. As of June 30, 1999, the Company had
repurchased 231,600 shares.

5.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The Company had no items of other comprehensive income in 1999 or 1998 and,
accordingly, comprehensive income is equivalent to net income.

6.  INCOME PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per
share. Income per share for 1998 is presented on a pro forma basis to reflect
the 6,293,542 share issuance of common stock as a result of the Spin-off of
Landair Corporation (see Note 1) as if the Spin-off had occurred on January 1,
1998:

(1)  Diluted loss per share amounts for 1999 have been calculated using the same
     denominator as used in the basic loss per share calculation as the
     inclusion of dilutive securities in the denominator would have an
     anti-dilutive effect.

7.  INCOME TAXES

For the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, the effective income
tax rate varied from the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% primarily as a
result of the effect of state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, and
permanent differences.

        Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)



8.  CONTINGENCIES

The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal
course of its business, most of which involve claims for personal injury and
property damage incurred in connection with the transportation of freight.
Management believes none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate,
will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of
operations of the Company.

9.  RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 financial statements to
conform to the 1999 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net
income as previously reported.

</TABLE>

The operating ratio (operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenue)
was 106.0% for the second quarter of 1999 compared to 94.2% for 1998. The
increase in the operating ratio in 1999 was due primarily to a higher operating
cost structure resulting from a decrease in equipment utilization between
periods and other factors as discussed below. The decrease in equipment
utilization was attributable to our truckload fleet's operating performance. The
truckload fleet's equipment utilization was negatively impacted by the
integration of the Laker asset acquisition which was acquired in January and
integrated into the Company's operations during the first quarter of 1999. The
unfavorable increase in the operating ratio was also attributable to higher than
expected driver turnover, which was further compounded by a tight supply of
qualified drivers. As a result of the unfavorable results attributed to the
Company's expansion efforts, management plans to restrict capital investment in
our truckload fleet until we return equipment utilization and operating
profitability to acceptable levels.

Salaries, wages and employee benefits were 36.1% of operating revenue in the
second quarter of 1999 compared to 33.8% in 1998. The increase in salaries,
wages and employee benefits as a percentage of operating revenue was due
primarily to a decrease in the equipment utilization between periods, which was
partially offset by a decrease in the ratio of Company-operated tractors to
owner-operator tractors. The increase was also attributed to workers'
compensation expense being 2.2% of revenue higher during the second quarter of
1999 compared to the prior-year quarter due to higher claims and claim
development trends during the period. In addition, the 1999 period included
severance benefits to be paid in the amount of approximately $200,000. During
the second quarter of 1999, average Company-operated tractors in service were
727 compared to 573 in 1998.

Purchased transportation was 27.3% of operating revenue in the second quarter of
1999 compared to 24.2% in 1998. The increase in purchased transportation as a
percentage of operating revenue in the second quarter of 1999 was primarily
attributable to an increase in the ratio of owner-operator tractors to
Company-operated tractors. During the second quarters of 1999 and 1998,
approximately 345 and 224, respectively, of the Company's average tractors in
service were contracted through owner-operators.

Fuel and fuel taxes were 10.8% of operating revenue in the second quarter of
1999 compared to 11.5% in 1998. The decrease in fuel and fuel taxes as a
percentage of operating revenue during the second quarter of 1999 resulted
primarily from a 2.8% decrease in the average fuel price per gallon between
periods coupled with a decrease in the ratio of Company-operated tractors to
owner-operator tractors during the period.

Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of operating revenue was
10.5% in the second quarter of 1999 compared to 9.0% in 1998. The increase in
depreciation and amortization as a percentage of operating revenue is
attributable to a decrease in equipment utilization coupled with the
amortization of identified intangible assets and goodwill associated with the
Laker acquisition which totaled $107,000, or 0.3% of revenue, during the second
quarter of 1999 and higher unit tractor depreciation as the Company decreased
the average age of its fleet during 1999. These factors were partially offset by
a decrease in the ratio of Company-operated tractors to owner-operator tractors
during the second quarter of 1999 compared to the prior-year quarter.

Insurance and claims were 5.6% of operating revenue in the second quarter of
1999 compared to 5.3% in 1998. The increase in insurance and claims expense is
due primarily to an increase in the frequency and severity of accidents during
the second quarter of 1999 compared with 1998.

Operating leases were 1.3% of operating revenue in the second quarter of 1999
compared to 0.7% in 1998. The increase in operating leases as a percentage of
operating revenue during 1999 is attributed to an increase in rent for trailers
between periods.

Other operating expenses, a large component of which relates to equipment
maintenance, were 14.4% of operating revenue in the second quarter of 1999
compared to 9.7% in 1998. The increase in other operating expenses as a
percentage of operating revenue is attributed to a decrease in equipment
utilization between periods coupled with an increase in commissions paid to
sales agents as the Company expanded its agent relationships during the quarter.
In addition, (gains) losses on the sale of revenue equipment (which were netted
against other operating expenses) were $422,000 or 1.3% of operating revenue
during the second quarter of 1999 compared to $(13,000) or (0.1)% of operating
revenue during the same period of 1998.

Interest expense was $687,000 or 2.1% of operating revenue in the second quarter
of 1999 compared to $457,000 or 1.8% in 1998. The increase was due to higher
average net borrowings during 1999 primarily resulting from the acquisition of
assets from Laker on January 7, 1999.

The combined federal and state effective rate for the second quarter of 1999 was
a benefit rate of 34.5% compared to a tax rate of 37.9% for 1998.

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income decreased by $2.4 million to a
loss of $1.7 million for the second quarter of 1999.

Purchased transportation was 26.2% of operating revenue in the first half of
1999 compared to 24.2% in 1998. The increase in purchased transportation as a
percentage of operating revenue in the first half of 1999 was primarily
attributable to an increase in the ratio of owner-operator tractors to
Company-operated tractors. During the first six months of 1999 and 1998,
approximately 327 and 224, respectively, of the Company's average tractors in
service were contracted through owner-operators.

Fuel and fuel taxes were 11.0% of operating revenue in the first half of 1999
compared to 11.6% in 1998. The decrease in fuel and fuel taxes as a percentage
of operating revenue during the first six months of 1999 resulted primarily from
a 5.0% decrease in the average fuel price per gallon between periods coupled
with a decrease in the ratio of Company-operated tractors to owner-operator
tractors during the period.

Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of operating revenue was
10.3% in the first half of 1999 compared to 9.0% in 1998. The increase in
depreciation and amortization as a percentage of operating revenue is
attributable to a decrease in equipment utilization coupled with the
amortization of identified intangible assets and goodwill associated with the
Laker acquisition which totaled $180,000, or 0.3% of revenue, during the first
half of 1999 and higher unit tractor depreciation as the Company decreased the
average age of its fleet during 1999. These factors were partially offset by a
decrease in the ratio of Company-operated tractors to owner-operator tractors
during the first half of 1999 compared to the prior-year quarter.

Insurance and claims were 5.0% of operating revenue in the first half of 1999
compared to 5.1% in 1998. The improvement in insurance and claims expense is due
primarily to a decrease in the frequency and severity of accidents and lower
premium costs during the first half of 1999 compared with 1998.

Operating leases were 1.3% of operating revenue in the first six months of 1999
compared to 0.8% in 1998. The increase in operating leases as a percentage of
operating revenue during 1999 is attributed to an increase in rent for trailers
between periods.

Other operating expenses, a large component of which relates to equipment
maintenance, were 11.8% of operating revenue in the first half of 1999 compared
to 9.8% in 1998. The increase in other operating expenses as a percentage of
operating revenue is attributed to a decrease in equipment utilization between
periods coupled with an increase in commissions paid to sales agents as the
Company expanded its agent relationships during the first half of 1999. In
addition, (gains) losses on the sale of revenue equipment (which were netted
against other operating expenses) were $163,000 or 0.3% of operating revenue
during the first six months of 1999 compared to $(45,000) or (0.1)% of operating
revenue during the same period of 1998.

Interest expense was $1.2 million or 1.8% of operating revenue in the first half
of 1999 compared to $924,000 or 1.8% in 1998. The increase was due to higher
average net borrowings during 1999 primarily resulting from the acquisition of
assets from Laker on January 7, 1999.

The combined federal and state effective tax rate for the first half of 1999 was
a benefit rate of 33.4% compared to a tax rate of 38.8% for 1998.

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income decreased by $2.6 million to a
loss of $1.3 million for the first half of 1999.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

The continued growth of the Company, and the nature of its operations, have
required significant investment in new equipment. The Company has historically
financed revenue equipment purchases with cash flows from operations, and
through borrowing under credit agreements with financial institutions. Working
capital needs have generally been met with cash flows from operations and
borrowings under credit agreements. Net cash provided by operating activities of
the Company was $5.6 million for the first half of 1999 compared with $9.1
million in the same period of 1998.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $29.3 million in the
first six months of 1999 compared with $9.2 million in the same period of 1998.
Investing activities consisted primarily of the acquisition of revenue equipment
and enhanced management information systems during the first six months of 1999
and 1998, the acquisition of assets from Laker, and the purchase of a terminal
facility during the first half of 1999.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $21.9 million in the first half of
1999 compared with cash used in financing activities of $374,000 in the same
period of 1998. These financing activities for the first half of 1999 and 1998
included the continued financing of revenue equipment coupled with repayment of
long-term debt and capital leases. In addition, the first half of 1999 included
the financing related to the acquisition of assets from Laker, the $1.1 million
repurchase of common stock of the Company and proceeds from the exercise of
stock options and common stock issued under an employee stock purchase plan.

The Company's credit facilities include a working capital line of credit and two
equipment financing facilities. Subject to maintenance of financial covenants
and ratios, these credit facilities permit the Company to borrow up to $15.0
million under the working capital line of credit and $25.0 million under the
equipment financing facilities. Interest rates for advances under the facilities
vary based on covenants related to total indebtedness, cash flows, results of
operations and other ratios. The facilities bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.75% to
2.0%, expire in September and December 2000, and are secured by accounts
receivable and certain revenue equipment. Availability under the line of credit
is reduced by the amount of outstanding letters of credit. Among other
restrictions, the terms of the line of credit require maintenance of certain
levels of net worth and other financial ratios. As of June 30, 1999, the Company
had $7.2 million of borrowings and $6.7 million of letters of credit outstanding
under the working capital line of credit facility and $24.2 million of
borrowings outstanding under the equipment financing facilities. As a result of
the unfavorable results of operations during the first six months of 1999,

return equipment utilization and operating profitability to acceptable levels.

The Company expects to finance its normal operating requirements and planned
revenue equipment purchases through available borrowing capacity under existing
lines of credit, future borrowings under installment notes for revenue
equipment, operating lease financing and cash generated by operations. In the
future, the Company will continue to have significant capital requirements,
which may require the Company to seek additional borrowings or to access capital
markets. The availability of debt financing or equity capital will depend upon
the Company's financial condition and results of operations as well as
prevailing market conditions and other factors over which the Company has little
or no control.

Year 2000 Issues

The Company continues to assess the potential impact of the Year 2000 on our
internal information technology ("IT") systems and operations. The Company's
Year 2000 initiatives include (i) testing and upgrading internal systems; (ii)
contacting technology vendors to determine their Year 2000 compliance status;
(iii) interface testing of the Company's internal systems with the systems of
its principal technology vendors; and (iv) contingency planning. The scope of
these efforts include business systems, systems software, computer hardware,
local networking and external telecommunications services.

The Company's State of Readiness

The Company has completed its initial assessment of its IT systems for Year 2000
compliance. During this assessment, the Company identified certain software
applications that required modifications or updates for IT systems to be Year
2000 compliant. The Company has obtained or will obtain such modifications and
updates. Based upon its initial assessment, the Company believes that
substantially all of its critical IT systems are Year 2000 compliant or can be
made Year 2000 compliant with minor modifications. The Company anticipates all
critical IT systems will be Year 2000 compliant by October 31, 1999.

As an integral part of its Year 2000 compliance effort, the Company has been
testing the interfacing of its IT systems with the systems of certain of its IT
vendors with whom the Company has material relationships. The Company will
continue this testing in an effort to minimize operations disruptions due to
Year 2000 issues. At present, the Company has not identified any material IT
vendor which will not be Year 2000 compliant.

Estimated Cost to Address Year 2000 Issues

To date, costs incurred in connection with Year 2000 issues have not been
material. Management estimates that the total Year 2000 project costs will not
have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, liquidity, or
financial condition. Except for expenditures



                                       17

for capital items, Year 2000 project costs are being expensed and are funded
through cash from operations. The Company has not yet deferred any IT project
due to its Year 2000 efforts.

Risks of the Company's Year 2000 Issues

Virtually every aspect of the Company's operations might be disrupted if our
systems or the systems of our material vendors are not Year 2000 compliant.
While the Company is attempting to minimize any negative consequences arising
from Year 2000 issues, there can be no assurance that Year 2000 issues will not
have a material adverse impact on our business, operations or financial
condition. Moreover, while the Company expects that upgrades to its IT systems
will be completed in a timely manner, there can be no assurances that the
Company will not encounter unexpected costs or delays.

Moreover, if any of the Company's significant vendors or customers experience
business disruptions due to Year 2000 issues, the Company might be adversely
affected. In certain instances, primarily telecommunications vendors or vendors
materially dependent on telecommunications, the Company is limited in its
ability to verify Year 2000 compliance and must rely on vendor representations
which may not provide unqualified Year 2000 compliance assurances. Regarding
customers, the Company's efforts have been focused on electronic data interface
("EDI") support. The Company is contacting each customer with whom there is an
EDI relationship to offer conversion to the Year 2000 compliant version of EDI
standards. In certain cases, customers have elected not to upgrade.

At present, the Company is not able to determine whether there would be a
material impact on the Company's results of operations, liquidity, or financial
condition if the Company's material systems, vendors, and customers are not Year
2000 compliant. A worst-case scenario would result in the short-term inability
of the Company to deliver freight for its shippers. This would result in lost
revenue; however, the amount would be dependent on the length and nature of the
disruption which cannot be predicted or estimated.

Contingency Plans

The Company will formulate detailed contingency plans at that point in time when
the Company believes that a material vendor will not be Year 2000 compliant. As
the Company anticipates that all its material vendors will be Year 2000
compliant, the Company has not yet established detailed contingency plans.
However, as a general precaution, the Company will document manual procedures to
be implemented if the IT systems of certain of its material vendors, primarily
telecommunications vendors, fail. It is recognized that these procedures would
provide limited support in the event of a material vendor failure and would only
partially mitigate the impact of the failure on Company operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

The Company, or its executive officers and directors on behalf of the Company,
may from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements." Written
forward-looking statements may appear in documents filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, in press releases and in reports to shareholders. Oral
forward-looking statements may be made by the Company's executive officers and
directors on behalf of the Company to the press, potential investors, securities
analysts and others. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
contains a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. The Company relies on
this safe harbor in making such disclosures. In connection with this safe harbor
provision, the Company is hereby identifying important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking
statement made by or on behalf of the Company. Without limitation, factors that
might cause such a difference include economic factors such as recessions,
inflation, higher interest rates, downturns in customer business cycles,
competition, surplus inventories, loss of a major customer, fuel price
increases, the Company's lack of prior operating history as an independent
entity, the ability of the Company's information systems to handle increased
volume of freight, and the availability and compensation of qualified drivers
and independent owner-operators. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation
to update these forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE OF MARKET RISK

At the June 30, 1999 borrowing levels, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in
interest rates on the Company's variable rate long-term debt would reduce
pre-tax income for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 by approximately
$232,000. Actual changes in rates may differ from the hypothetical assumptions
used in computing this exposure.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal
course of its business, most of which involve claims for personal injury and
property damage incurred in connection with the transportation of freight.

aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
results of operations of the Company.
