We continued to deliver best-in-class service, which supports our yield management initiatives and ability to increase our LTL revenue per hundredweight. Our team will continue to focus on these core elements of our long-term strategic plan, which we believe has produced a strong track record of financial performance. This plan has also helped us create an unmatched value proposition that we believe will support our ability to win market share and increase shareholder value over the long-term.”
