**ITEM 2.02 – RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION**

On November 5, 2025, ArcBest<sup>®</sup> (Nasdaq: ARCB) (the "Company") issued a press release announcing its unaudited third quarter 2025 results. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. Additional supplemental information and presentation slides to be used in connection with the scheduled conference call to discuss the third quarter results are furnished as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures and ratios and other information utilized for internal analysis provide analysts, investors, and others the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing the Company's core operating performance and provide meaningful comparisons between current and prior period results, as well as important information regarding performance trends. The use of certain non-GAAP measures improves comparability in analyzing ArcBest's performance because it removes the impact of items from operating results that, in management's opinion, do not reflect ArcBest's core operating performance.

The press release in Exhibit 99.1, the supplemental information in Exhibit 99.2, and the presentation slides in Exhibit 99.3 include certain non-GAAP information. Certain information discussed in the scheduled conference call could also be considered non-GAAP measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are included in Exhibit 99.1 herein, including reconciliations of GAAP earnings and earnings per share to non-GAAP financial measures, reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP effective tax rates, and calculations of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"). Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures included in the presentation slides to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are also included within Exhibit 99.3 herein.

Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be relevant and useful information as EBITDA is a standard measure commonly reported and widely used by analysts, investors and others to measure financial performance and ability to service debt obligations. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a primary component of the financial covenants contained in ArcBest's credit agreement. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently; therefore, ArcBest's calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, ArcBest's reported results. These financial measures should not be construed as better measurements than operating income, operating cash flow, net income or earnings per share, as determined under GAAP.

#### ArcBest Announces Third Quarter 2025 Results
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Asset-Based shipment and tonnage growth despite soft freight environment

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Asset-Light achieves record volumes and productivity

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Over $66 million returned to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends year-to-date

FORT SMITH, Arkansas, November 5, 2025 — ArcBest<sup>®</sup> (Nasdaq: ARCB), a leader in supply chain logistics, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Third quarter 2025 revenue totaled $1.0 billion, compared to $1.1 billion in the prior-year period. Net income from continuing operations was $39.3 million, or $1.72 per diluted share, versus $100.3 million, or $4.23 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2024, which included a $69.1 million after-tax benefit from the reduction in the fair value of contingent consideration related to the MoLo acquisition. On a non-GAAP basis, net income was $33.4 million, or $1.46 per diluted share, compared to $38.8 million, or $1.64 per diluted share, in the prior year.

"ArcBest continues to deliver, even in this challenging freight environment," said Judy R. McReynolds, ArcBest Chairman and CEO. "We achieved growth in LTL shipments and tonnage, and our Asset-Light segment delivered record shipment volumes and productivity. These results underscore the strength of our customer relationships and the value of our integrated solutions."

**Results of Operations Comparisons**

**Asset-Based**

<u>Third</u> <u>Quarter 20</u><u>25</u> <u>Versus</u> <u>Third Quarter</u> <u>20</u><u>24</u>

● Revenue of $726.5 million compared to $709.7 million, a per-day increase of 1.6 percent

● Tonnage per day increase of 2.3 percent

● Shipments per day increase of 4.3 percent

● Billed revenue per hundredweight decrease of 1.1 percent

● Operating income of $70.2 million and an operating ratio of 90.3 percent, which includes $15.9 million of net gains on asset sales, compared to $64.0 million and an operating ratio of 91.0 percent

● Excluding asset gains, non-GAAP operating income of $54.4 million and an operating ratio of 92.5 percent, compared to $64.0 million and an operating ratio of 91.0 percent

Tonnage growth was driven by a 4.3 percent increase in daily shipments, primarily from newly onboarded core LTL customers. This was partially offset by a 1.9 percent decline in total weight per shipment. While new shipments were generally heavier, ongoing weakness in the manufacturing sector continues to pressure weight per shipment metrics, reducing revenue per shipment without corresponding cost decreases.

To support shipment growth, labor was added, and network capacity was supplemented with purchased transportation and local cartage during peak vacation season. Annual increases in contracted union labor rates, combined with higher purchased transportation spending and equipment depreciation, drove operating expenses higher. Despite these pressures, cost per shipment improved one percent year-over-year as a result of continued productivity gains. Cartage and purchased transportation costs normalized in September after elevated activity in July and August.

------

Customer contract renewals and deferred pricing agreements averaged a 4.5 percent increase during the quarter. Billed revenue per hundredweight, including and excluding fuel, decreased by 1.1 percent in the third quarter, compared to the third quarter of 2024. Price improvements were offset by a shift in freight profile. Overall, LTL industry pricing remains rational.

Compared sequentially to the second quarter of 2025, third quarter revenue and shipments per day were flat, while weight per shipment declined 3.9 percent, resulting in a 3.7 percent decrease in tonnage per day. Billed revenue per shipment decreased 0.6 percent as price improvements were offset by lower-weight shipments. Billed revenue per hundredweight increased 3.4 percent, reflecting the lower-weight shipments, combined with higher prices and fuel surcharges. Excluding fuel surcharges, revenue per hundredweight increased in the low single digits. The sequential non-GAAP operating ratio improved by 30 basis points.

**Asset-Light**

<u>Third Quarter 2025 Versus Third Quarter 2024</u> 

● Revenue of $356.0 million compared to $385.3 million, a per-day decrease of 8.3 percent

● Operating loss of $1.6 million compared to operating income of $84.8 million, which included the $91.9 million pre-tax reduction in the fair value of contingent consideration related to the MoLo earnout

● On a non-GAAP basis, operating income of $1.6 million compared to operating loss of $3.9 million

● Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") , as defined in the attached non-GAAP reconciliation tables, of $3.1 million compared to negative $2.1 million

Revenue decline was primarily due to lower revenue per shipment in a soft-rate environment and a higher mix of managed transportation business, which typically involves smaller, lower-revenue shipments. A 2.5 percent increase in shipments per day reflects continued growth in managed solutions, partially offset by a strategic reduction in less profitable truckload volumes.

Despite revenue declines, the Asset-Light segment delivered $1.6 million of non-GAAP operating income, supported by record volumes, improved margins and disciplined cost management. Productivity, measured by shipments per person per day, reached an all-time high during the quarter.

Compared sequentially to second quarter of 2025, daily revenue increased 3.3 percent, driven by a 10.1 percent increase in shipments per day. This increase was offset by a 6.2 percent decline in revenue per shipment, reflecting a higher proportion of smaller, lower-revenue managed solutions shipments. However, increased revenues combined with productivity gains contributed to improved financial performance.

1) The 2025 periods include a net gain of $15.7 million, primarily related to two service center sales during third quarter 2025.

2) Includes amortization of intangibles associated with acquired businesses.

3) Represents the change in fair value of the contingent earnout consideration recorded for the MoLo acquisition. The liability for contingent consideration is remeasured at each quarterly reporting date, and any change in fair value as a result of the recurring assessments is recognized in operating income (loss). The Company reduced the contingent consideration for the MoLo acquisition to zero in second quarter 2025, reflecting the probability of no earnout payment based on projections of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization for 2025.

4) "Other and eliminations" includes corporate costs for certain unallocated shared service costs which are not attributable to any segment, additional investments to offer comprehensive transportation and logistics services across multiple operating segments, costs related to our customer pilot offering of Vaux, and other investments in ArcBest technology and innovations.

**RECONCILIATIONS OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES**

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios utilized for internal analysis provide analysts, investors, and others the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our core operating performance and provides meaningful comparisons between current and prior period results, as well as important information regarding performance trends. Accordingly, non-GAAP results are presented on a continuing operations basis, excluding the discontinued operations of FleetNet, which sold on February 28, 2023. The use of certain non-GAAP measures improves comparability in analyzing our performance because it removes the impact of items from operating results that, in management's opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently; therefore, our calculation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Certain information discussed in the scheduled conference call could be considered non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results. These financial measures should not be construed as better measurements than operating income, net income or earnings per share, as determined under GAAP.

**RECONCILIATIONS OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES – Continued**

**Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA)**

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a key measure of performance and for business planning. The measure is particularly meaningful for analysis of operating performance because it excludes amortization of acquired intangibles and software of the Asset-Light segment and changes in the fair values of contingent consideration and equity investment, which are significant expenses or gains resulting from strategic decisions or other factors rather than core daily operations. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a primary component of the financial covenants contained in our credit agreement. The calculation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as presented below begins with net income from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The calculation of Asset-Light Adjusted EBITDA as presented below begins with operating income (loss), as other income (costs), income tax provision, and net income from continuing operations are reported at the consolidated level and not included in the operating segment financial information evaluated by management to make operating decisions.

1) Revenue for undelivered freight is deferred for financial statement purposes in accordance with the Asset-Based segment revenue recognition policy. Billed revenue per day has not been adjusted for the portion of revenue deferred for financial statement purposes.

In October 2025, Asset-Based daily shipment growth slowed and both weight per shipment and daily tonnage levels were down compared to the same period last year. Revenue per hundredweight, both including and excluding fuel, was flat. The pricing environment remains rational.

From September to October, shipments per day decreased approximately 5% and tonnage per day decreased 4%, while weight per shipment was flat. Revenue per hundredweight both including and excluding fuel, was down 1%.

Historically, ABF's non-GAAP operating ratio has deteriorated approximately 100-200 basis points from the third quarter to the fourth quarter. We currently expect our operating ratio to deteriorate by approximately 400 basis points sequentially, reflecting ongoing softness in the broader freight market.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Purchased Transportation Expense as a % of Revenue | 85.3% | 84.6% | 84.9% | 86% |

---

In October 2025, Asset-Light year-over-year daily revenue decreased due to lower revenue per shipment from soft freight market conditions and a higher proportion of Managed business with smaller shipment sizes. The increase in October shipments is driven by continued strength in our Managed solution.

Sequentially, from September to October, daily revenue decreased 3%, revenue per shipment increased 6%, and shipments per day decreased 9%. The slowdown is typical for this time of year, as the second and third quarters generally represent peak shipping periods for our customers.

Given seasonality and current market conditions, we anticipate a non-GAAP operating loss in the range of $1 million to $3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. This estimate excludes GAAP impacts from changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, which we estimate will be zero, and purchase accounting amortization, which we expect to total $3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025.

**Additional Detailed Information**

**Consolidated Capital Expenditures 2025 Projected**

● Capital Expenditures, net of sales proceeds and including financed equipment: approximately $200 million

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Includes net revenue equipment purchases (primarily for Asset-Based) of approximately $130 million

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Includes net real estate expenditures of approximately $35 million, which includes $25 million in proceeds from real estate sales

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o The remaining amount of capital expenditures includes items related to technology and miscellaneous dock equipment upgrades and enhancements.

● Depreciation and amortization costs on property, plant and equipment: approximately $158 million

● Intangible asset amortization, primarily reflecting purchase accounting amortization related to the MoLo acquisition: $13 million

**Share Repurchase Program**

Based on repurchases settled through Friday, October 31, 2025, $116.5 million remains available under the current repurchase authorization for future common stock purchases.

**Tax Rate**

ArcBest's third quarter 2025 effective GAAP tax rate for continuing operations was 26.6%. The "Effective Tax Rate Reconciliation" table of ArcBest's third quarter 2025 earnings press release in Exhibit 99.1 shows the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP effective tax rates. The effective non-GAAP tax rate for third quarter 2025 was 28.0%. Under the current tax laws, we expect our full year 2025 non-GAAP tax rate for continuing operations to be in a range of 26.0% to 27.0%. The effective tax rate may be impacted by discrete items that could occur throughout the year.

------

**Asset-Based Annual Union Profit-Sharing Bonus**

As provided in ABF Freight's current Teamster labor contract, for the full years of 2024 through 2027, ABF Freight's Teamster employees are eligible for an annual profit-sharing bonus, as shown in the following table. The operating ratio ("OR") used to calculate the bonus amount is on a GAAP basis. The potential bonus would be based on full-year union employee earnings. While impacted by business and associated labor levels which are subject to change, the estimate of one percent of the annual earnings for the ABF Freight union employees who are eligible for this benefit approximates $6 million - $6.5 million of union bonus expense.

During years in which ArcBest's internal forecasts indicate an expectation of paying the union bonus, we will accrue for this expense throughout the year, generally in proportion of the quarterly results as a percentage of the annual projection. As we do not provide public updates on our projected operating ratio or our expectations for paying the union bonus, any details of amounts accrued will not be provided. If financial models reflect an operating ratio that meets the payout thresholds shown below, ArcBest encourages analysts to include expenses for the union bonus in quarterly and annual earnings per share projections for the company.

● The "Other, net" line primarily includes changes in cash surrender value of life insurance, expenses associated with non-operating properties, and in first quarter 2024, a $28.7 million pre-tax noncash impairment charge to write off our equity investment in Phantom Auto, a provider of human-centered remote operation software, which ceased operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o The changes in cash surrender value of life insurance and the equity investment impairment charge are typically disclosed as non-GAAP reconciling items.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o As such, the non-GAAP amounts for "Other, net" are expected to be minimal.

● Projected amounts for fourth quarter and full year 2025 and actual amounts for fourth quarter and full year 2024 are included below.

However, management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures utilized for internal analysis provides analysts, investors, and others the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our core operating performance and provides meaningful comparisons between current and prior period results, as well as important information regarding performance trends. Accordingly, using these measures improves comparability in analyzing our performance because it removes the impact of items from operating results that, in management's opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results. These financial measures should not be construed as better measurements than operating income, operating cash flow, net income or earnings per share, as determined under GAAP.

Consolidated non-GAAP earnings per share and non-GAAP return on capital employed are non-GAAP financial measures that most closely correlate with consolidated earnings per share and return on capital employed. These non-GAAP measures exclude purchase accounting amortization, which is expected to total $7M pre-tax in 2028. These non-GAAP measures also exclude innovative technology costs, life insurance proceeds, changes in cash surrender value of life insurance policies and income taxes related to the annual vesting of restricted stock units, each of which cannot be estimated for 2028 and could be material. As a result, we are unable to provide quantitative reconciliations to the most closely correlated GAAP measure. Non-GAAP Asset-Based Operating Ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that most closely correlates with Asset-Based Operating Ratio. Non-GAAP Asset-Based OR could be adjusted for non-recurring infrequent or unusual items. Because the timing, amount and nature of any adjustments are unknown, and any adjustments could be material in future periods, we are unable to provide quantitative reconciliations to the most closely correlated GAAP measure. Asset-Light non-GAAP operating income range of $40M to $70M excludes GAAP impacts from purchase accounting amortization, which are expected to total $7M in 2028. Including these impacts, the Asset-Light GAAP operating income would range from $33M to $63M in 2028. See reconciliation table to the right.
