OMAHA, Neb., February 5, 2026 -- Werner Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and logistics provider, today reported results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.

"Fourth quarter results reflect both the challenges and progress made during a difficult operating year. Dedicated revenue continued to grow, supported by increased fleet size and customer retention, and the recently announced acquisition of FirstFleet positions Werner for further sustainable, profitable growth," said Derek Leathers, Chairman and CEO. "One-Way Truckload miles per truck improved, though the fleet size was reduced as part of a strategic realignment toward specialized, higher-margin services. Logistics results were mixed, with strength in Intermodal and Final Mile offset by margin compression in Truckload Brokerage due to rising purchased transportation costs. Despite ongoing pressure across the freight market, Werner maintained strong operating cash flow and disciplined capital deployment."

Total revenues for the quarter were $737.6 million, a decrease of $17.0 million compared to the prior year, due to a $14.7 million, or 3% decrease in Truckload Transportation Services ("TTS") revenues and a decline in Werner Logistics revenues of $5.6 million, or 3%.

------

Werner Enterprises, Inc. - Release of February 5, 2026

Operating income decreased $49.2 million, or 368%, to a loss of $35.8 million while operating margin of (4.9)% declined 670 basis points from 1.8%. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted operating income of $11.3 million decreased $0.9 million, or 8%. Adjusted operating margin of 1.5% declined 10 basis points from 1.6%.

TTS had an operating loss of $32.9 million compared to $11.7 million operating income in the prior year, and TTS had non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $12.7 million, a decrease of $1.9 million. Werner Logistics had operating loss of $0.2 million compared to $1.2 million operating income in the prior year, and Werner Logistics had non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $1.0 million, a decrease of $1.4 million. Corporate and Other (including driving schools) had an operating loss of $2.7 million compared to $0.4 million operating income in the prior year which had a $5.1 million gain on the sale of real estate.

Net interest expense of $8.9 million decreased $0.6 million primarily due to a decrease in average interest rates, partially offset by an increase in average debt outstanding. The effective income tax rate during the quarter increased to 20.8%, compared to 7.3% in fourth quarter 2024 driven by certain discrete return-to-provision adjustments in the prior year.

Net gains on our strategic investments were $32 thousand compared to net gains of $8.7 million, or $0.10 per share, in the prior year. Consistent with prior reporting, increases or decreases to the values of these strategic investments are adjusted out for determining non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) and non-GAAP adjusted earnings (loss) per share.

Net loss attributable to Werner was $27.8 million compared to $11.9 million net income attributable to Werner in the prior year. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted net income attributable to Werner was $3.3 million compared to $4.7 million in the prior year. Diluted loss per share was $0.46 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.19 in the prior year. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.05 compared to $0.08 in the prior year.

**Noteworthy Developments** 

In fourth quarter 2025, we began a strategic restructuring of our One-Way Truckload business, a decisive action designed to significantly enhance long-term profitability and fleet utilization by maximizing production and mitigating unprofitable freight. Key steps in this initiative included exiting selective unprofitable regional and short-haul truckload freight, further integrating our one-way acquisition operations, and a further shift in the One-Way fleet composition toward more specialized, Expedited, and team capacity. This repositioning is focused on moving away from underperforming business. The

Werner Enterprises, Inc. - Release of February 5, 2026

restructuring resulted in a total charge of $44.2 million in the fourth quarter. It is important to note that a significant portion of this is non-cash, totaling $42.7 million, which includes the impairment of $21.7 million of intangible assets and $21.0 million of revenue equipment. This non-cash charge reflects the necessary steps to rationalize our assets and business model for future margin expansion.

• Revenues of $512.6 million decreased $14.7 million; trucking revenues, net of fuel surcharge, decreased 2% year over year

• Operating loss of $32.9 million compared to $11.7 million operating income in the prior year; non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $12.7 million decreased $1.9 million due to a One-Way smaller fleet and margin degradation, where as Dedicated operating income and margin improved year-over-year

• Operating margin of (6.4)% decreased 860 basis points from 2.2%; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin, net of fuel surcharge, of 2.8% decreased 30 basis points from 3.1%, driven by One-Way margin decline, partially offset with Dedicated margin improvement

• Average segment trucks in service totaled 7,340, a decrease of 155 trucks year over year, or 2.1%, while segment trucks at quarter end decreased 350 trucks

• Dedicated unit trucks at quarter end totaled 4,850, or 68% of the total TTS segment fleet, compared to 4,840 trucks, or 65%, a year ago

• Average revenues per truck per week, net of fuel surcharge decreased 0.4% for TTS

During fourth quarter 2025, Dedicated experienced a net increase in average trucks in service, up 118 trucks, or 2.4% year over year, and up 89 trucks sequentially.

**Cash Flow and Capital Allocation**

Cash flow from operations in fourth quarter 2025 was $62.3 million compared to $71.0 million in fourth quarter 2024, a decrease of 12%.

Net capital expenditures in fourth quarter 2025 were $69.4 million compared to $28.8 million in fourth quarter 2024, an increase of 141%, due to $35.7 million more in sale of property and equipment in the prior year. We continue to prioritize business reinvestment in safe and modern equipment, including trucks and trailers, as well as in technology, our terminal network and our talent. The average ages of our truck and trailer fleets were 2.7 years and 5.6 years, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. Maintaining a low-age, modern fleet improves our driver experience and results in more effective equipment maintenance, safety and fuel efficiency.

Gains on sales of property and equipment in fourth quarter 2025 were $2.4 million, or $0.03 per share, compared to $6.5 million, or $0.07 per share, in fourth quarter 2024. Gains in fourth quarter 2024 included $5.1 million gain from selling a parcel of real estate, which is adjusted out of income for purposes of non-GAAP measures. Excluding the gain on real estate, gains on sale of used equipment were up year-over-year by $1.0 million or 77%, driven by a change in the mix of equipment sold. Year over year, we sold 45% and 47% fewer tractors and trailers, respectively, and realized lower average unit gains on tractors and higher average unit gains on trailers. Gains on sales of property and equipment are reflected as a reduction of other operating expenses in our income statement.

We did not repurchase shares of our common stock in fourth quarter 2025. As of December 31, 2025, we had 5.0 million shares remaining under our share repurchase authorization.

As of December 31, 2025, we had $59.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $1.4 billion of stockholders' equity. Total debt outstanding was $752.0 million at December 31, 2025. After considering

------

Werner Enterprises, Inc. - Release of February 5, 2026

letters of credit issued, we had available liquidity consisting of cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity as of December 31, 2025 of $702.0 million.

On January 27, 2026 we closed on the acquisition of FirstFleet, a top 11 pure play dedicated trucking company in North America. We hosted a call and presentation on January 28th. Refer to the press release and presentation relating to this announcement. The total purchase price was $282.8 million, consisting of $245.0 million for the operating company and $37.8 million for acquired real estate. The transaction was funded with a combination of cash on hand and incremental debt, which included additional borrowing from our revolving credit facility and the assumption of First Fleet capital leases at closing. As of January 31, 2026, total borrowings under our revolver and accounts receivable securitization facility were $884.6 million, representing an increase of $132.6 million versus December 31, 2025. Assumed capital leases at closing were estimated at $57.0 million, resulting in a total estimated increase in debt of $189.7 million during the month of January 2026.

(1) Under the terms of our insurance policies, we were the primary obligor of the damage award in a previously disclosed adverse jury verdict, and as such, we had recorded a $79.2 million receivable from our third-party insurance providers in other non-current assets and a corresponding liability of the same amount in the long-term portion of insurance and claims accruals in the unaudited condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2024. On June 27, 2025, the Texas Supreme Court reversed the verdict and rendered a judgment in our favor, effectively ending the case in our favor. As a result of the Texas Supreme Court's verdict, we reversed the $79.2 million receivable and corresponding liability of the same amount in June 2025. In June 2025, we also reversed a $45.7 million liability (including interest) we had recorded in the long-term portion of insurance and claims accruals in the unaudited condensed balance sheet.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations**

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), we provide certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the SEC Regulation G, including non-GAAP adjusted operating income; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Werner; non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share; non-GAAP adjusted operating revenues, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted operating revenues, less purchased transportation expense; non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses; non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted operating ratio; and non-GAAP adjusted operating ratio, net of fuel surcharge. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a more useful comparison of our performance from period to period because they exclude the effect of items that, in our opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as substitutes for their comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures. Although we believe that they improve comparability in analyzing our period to period performance, they could limit comparability to other companies in our industry if those companies define these measures differently. Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered measures of income generated

Werner Enterprises, Inc. - Release of February 5, 2026

by our business. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis.

The following tables present reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure as required by SEC Regulation G. In addition, information regarding each of the excluded items as well as our reasons for excluding them from our non-GAAP results is provided below.

(1) Non-GAAP adjusted operating income; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin; non-GAAP adjusted operating margin, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Werner; non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share; non-GAAP adjusted operating revenues, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted operating revenues, less purchased transportation expense; non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses; non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses, net of fuel surcharge; non-GAAP adjusted operating ratio; and non-GAAP adjusted operating ratio, net of fuel surcharge should be considered in addition to, rather than as substitutes for, GAAP operating income (loss); GAAP operating margin; GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Werner; GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share; GAAP operating revenues; GAAP operating expenses; and GAAP operating ratio, which are their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

(2) Prior to second quarter 2025, we accrued pre-tax insurance and claims expense for interest related to a previously disclosed excess adverse jury verdict rendered on May 17, 2018 in a lawsuit arising from a December 2014 accident. Additional information about the accident was included in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 17, 2018. Under our insurance policies in effect on the date of this accident, our maximum liability for this accident was $10.0 million (plus pre-judgment and post-judgment interest) with premium-based insurance coverage that exceeded the jury verdict amount. We continued to accrue pre-tax insurance and claims expense for interest at $0.5 million per month (excluding months where the plaintiffs requested an extension of time to respond to our petition for review) until our appeal was finalized in our favor during second quarter 2025. Upon finalization of the appeal, we reversed a $45.7 million liability (including interest) through insurance and claims expense on the income statement. Management believes excluding the effect of these items provides a more useful comparison of our performance from period to period. These items are included in our Truckload Transportation Services segment.

(3) In October 2025, we reached an agreement with the plaintiffs in the consolidated class action lawsuits entitled *Abarca et al. v. Werner* in the United States District Court for the District of Nebraska, to settle these cases for a combined $18 million. The settlement was approved by the court. An accrual for this settlement was recorded in third quarter 2025, and is included in salaries, wages and benefits in our income statement. We also incurred legal fees of $3.4 million related to this litigation during third quarter 2025, which is recorded in other operating expenses in our income statement. Management believes excluding the effect of these items provides a more useful comparison of our performance from period to period. These items are included in our Truckload Transportation Services segment.

(4) Restructuring and impairment expense are excluded because management does not believe these costs are indicative of our core operating performance. These costs are included in our Truckload Transportation Services segment.

(5) Amortization expense related to intangible assets acquired in our business acquisitions is excluded because management does not believe the expense is indicative of our core operating performance. This expense is included in our Truckload Transportation Services and Werner Logistics segments.

(6) Contingent consideration, also referred to as earnout, adjustments related to our business acquisitions are excluded because management does not believe these adjustments are indicative of our core operating performance. These adjustments are recorded in other operating expenses in our income statement and are included in our Truckload Transportation Services segment.

(7) Severance expense is excluded because management does not believe the expense is indicative of our core operating performance. This expense is included in salaries, wages and benefits in our income statement and is included in our Truckload Transportation Services and Werner Logistics segments.

(8) We incurred business acquisition-related expenses including legal and professional fees. Acquisition-related expenses are excluded as management believes these expenses are not representative of the costs of managing our on-going business. These expenses are included within other operating expenses in our income statement and in Corporate operating income in our Segment Information table.

(9) During 2024, we sold three parcels of real estate which resulted in $7.0 million of net pre-tax gains. Management believes excluding the effect of these unusual and infrequent items provides a more useful comparison of our performance from period to period. The net pre-tax gains are included within other operating expenses in our income statement and in Corporate operating income in our Segment Information table.

(10) Represents non-operating mark-to-market adjustments for gains/losses on our minority equity investments, which we account for under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 321, *Investments – Equity Securities*. Management believes excluding the effect of gains/losses on our investments in equity securities provides a more useful comparison of our performance from period to period. We record changes in the value of our investments in equity securities in other expense (income) in our income statement.

(11) Represents earnings/losses from our equity method investment, which we account for under ASC 323, *Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures*. Management believes excluding the effect of earnings/losses from our equity method investment provides a more useful comparison of our performance from period to period. We record earnings/losses from our equity method investment in other expense (income) in our income statement.

(12) The income tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments is calculated using the incremental income tax rate excluding discrete items, and the income tax effect for 2025 has been updated to reflect the annual incremental income tax rate.

(13) Fluctuating fuel prices and fuel surcharge revenues impact the total company operating ratio and the TTS segment operating ratio when fuel surcharges are reported on a gross basis as revenues versus netting the fuel surcharges against fuel expenses. Management believes netting fuel surcharge revenues, which are generally a more volatile source of revenue, against fuel expenses provides a more consistent basis for comparing the results of operations from period to period.

(14) Management believes excluding purchased transportation expense from Werner Logistics operating revenues provides a useful measurement of our ability to source and sell services provided by third parties.
