Onstage in Chicago, CHRW talks tech and staffing; RXO sees language order hitting capacity
With two leading 3PLs taking the stage at the Wells Fargo Industrials and Materials Conference in Chicago Wednesday, in the middle of a freight market that still has not made their lives any easier, presenters from C.H. Robinson and RXO made their case in different ways. They did so from very different positions in the equity markets: C.H. Robinson's stock by Wednesday had risen about 11.6% in the last year. RXO's stock declined about 21.7% during that same period. There was one major overlap in what the two publicly-traded 3PLs said about the market: neither are banking on any significant upturn anytime soon. C.H. Robinson (NASDAQ: CHRW) CEO Dave Bozeman said the freight market is still in what is now a 38 to 39-month recession, 'and we have to deal with it and that's what we're doing every day.'Drew Wilkerson, the CEO of RXO (NYSE: RXO), citing several measures such as tender rejections, said 'we feel like we're coming off the bottom.' But it was other areas that stood out in the presentations for the two companies. (Both companies' presentations were webcast.) Given that it has been technology and productivity that C.H. Robinson has touted as the key driver to its success, which began showing up in its corporate earnings after the first quarter of 2024, it wasn't surprising that Bozeman and CFO Damon Lee turned to that topic in their discussion. The RXO discussion with Wilkerson and head of strategy Jared Weisfeld was more focused on the freight market. But one reason for their guarded optimism was a potential strengthening through a potential boost from enforcing the Department of Transportation's English language C.H. Robinson, some of the gains at the company have come alongside reductions in staff. Although the precise numbers are not known, they showed up in the most recent quarterly earnings report under the category of personnel expenses. In the first quarter of 2024, that spending was $379.1 million. In the first quarter of this year, it had been reduced to $348.6 million. Lee said the question about the company's head count is one that they get 'a lot.' 'But we don't really look at it that way,' he said. 'We look at it as productivity.' The key metric the company uses to measure that productivity is shipments per day per person. In the company's most recent quarterly earnings call, Michael Castagnetto, president of C.H. Robinson's North American Surface Transportation unit that is the home of its truck brokerage activities, said the segment's shipments per person per day has been growing at a double-digit pace in the past two years. He said that pace continued in the first quarter. 'If I've set a target for operating leverage and volume goes up, I may actually add a head or two,' Lee said. But given the environment in the freight market, Lee said that reducing head count at present is 'what the productivity drives us to do.' Continuing reductions in headcount are not guaranteed, according to Lee. 'Assuming volumes return to the system at some point, that productivity will show up either as head count reduction, like we've seen in this freight recession, or it will show up as increased operating leverage when volume returns.' 'Our head count reductions have not been blind,' Lee said. 'They've been very systematic. It hasn't been 'will I just reduce workforce by 10%.'' The 'vast majority' of head count has come on the customer-facing side, Lee said, 'where we're moving up the value stack with the customers.'He added that questions from investors and analysts often come down to 'how do we know you're not just going to flood people back when the volume returns?' 'Our answer is there's no reason to flood people back,' Lee said. 'The processes have fundamentally changed. The process that required a human touch before no longer requires the human touch.' Both Lee and Bozeman said the company believes the model it has created during difficult times, based on Lean principles, will 'translate' in a stronger market as well. Bozeman has talked frequently about a push by C.H. Robinson to get deeper into small and medium businesses. Lee said the productivity gains elsewhere in the company has allowed it 'to invest in that space, in bringing people in from a customer facing perspective.' Wednesday began with a report published by Jason Seidl of TDCowen, who had met with RXO officials in Canada. Seidl said those officials–who were not identified in the report–had made the point that the enforcement of the Department of Transportation English language requirement that will begin next week could have a significant impact on trucking capacity. Wilkerson raised that subject in his discussion at the Wells Fargo conference. 'I think it will have a big impact if it goes into effect,' Wilkerson said. But where the impact falls is not likely to be evenly distributed, he added. There will be a clear political divide on where the law could affect capacity. 'Watch the red states first, because this is something that would happen at a state level,' Wilkerson said. 'So does something happen in Texas? Does something happen in Florida? Does something happen in Tennessee, which are all highly-trafficked areas?' RXO, according to Wilkerson, believes the size of the driver capacity that would not pass the English language requirement 'could be anywhere to low double digits.' In his report, Seidl said he believed the industry is estimating that number to be between 5% and 15%. Wilkerson, in his remarks, said the continuing sluggishness of freight markets is now more of a demand issue than one of supply, because the departure of so many carriers and owner operators has tightened capacity. 'So whenever you talk about demand returning, there is not as much capacity,' he said. Given that, he said, a significant loss of more capacity because of enforcement of the English language requirement would result in a 'sharper turn in the recovery.' Westerfield said he sees 'pretty significant coordination' among government agencies like FMCSA to implement the executive order. He added that if a driver can not show proficiency in tasks like reading signs, the penalty is not a fine; it is having that driver and truck taken out of service. 'But it comes down to enforcement, which will be down at a state by state level,' Westerfield said. 'So that really speaks to regional dynamics.' Seidl's brief comment in his report was that he believed the executive order will be 'difficult to enforce.' More articles by John Kingston C.H.

As a result of the Fed's rate hikes in 2022 and 2023, inflation has come down from frothy levels post-pandemic. The general rise in the price of goods and services is trending towards the Fed's 2% goal as of late, which is good news. The higher rates that fought inflation also didn't slow economic activity enough to catalyze a recession. So far, soft landing. This, combined with recent rate cuts (half a percent in September 2024 and a quarter percent in November 2024) have led to strong stock market performance in 2024. The icing on the cake for 2024 returns was Donald Trump's victory in the U.S. Presidential Election in early November, sending major indices to all-time highs in the week following the election. Still, debates around the health of the economy and the impact of potential tariffs and corporate tax cuts remain, leaving much uncertainty around 2025.

CHRW Q1 Earnings Call: Margin Expansion and Productivity Offset Lower Revenue in Tough Freight Market
Freight transportation intermediary C.H. Robinson (NASDAQ:CHRW) missed Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q1 CY2025, with sales falling 8.3% year on year to $4.05 billion. Its non-GAAP profit of $1.17 per share was 11.4% above analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy CHRW? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $4.05 billion vs analyst estimates of $4.26 billion (8.3% year-on-year decline, 4.9% miss) Adjusted EPS: $1.17 vs analyst estimates of $1.05 (11.4% beat) Adjusted EBITDA: $211.1 million vs analyst estimates of $198.9 million (5.2% margin, 6.1% beat) Operating Margin: 4.4%, up from 2.9% in the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow was $90.45 million, up from -$55.8 million in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $11.43 billion C.H. Robinson's first quarter results were shaped by a combination of disciplined execution and innovation in a challenging freight environment. Leadership cited market share gains in both truckload and less-than-truckload (LTL) segments, alongside improvements in gross and operating margins, as evidence that their ongoing transformation efforts are yielding results. CEO Dave Bozeman attributed this progress to self-help initiatives and a new operating model, noting, "we are not waiting for a market recovery to improve our financial results." Looking ahead, management highlighted continued investment in automation and generative artificial intelligence (AI) as central to their strategy for margin expansion and operating leverage. Bozeman was candid about the uncertainty posed by new tariffs and shifting global trade patterns, acknowledging that some customers had paused or reduced orders as they assess the impact. Still, he expressed confidence in the company's ability to adapt, stating, "the continued disciplined execution of our strategy... will make us stronger," while emphasizing the scalability and flexibility of the business model. C.H. Robinson's management emphasized that market share gains and improved margins in Q1 were achieved despite a prolonged freight recession and ongoing trade policy disruptions. The team highlighted a focus on operational discipline, digital innovation, and supply chain diversification as key to performance. Market Share in Core Segments: Truckload and LTL volumes outperformed broader market indices, with management attributing these gains to a disciplined approach to pricing and capacity procurement, as well as targeted investments in sales and digital brokerage. AI-Driven Productivity Gains: The rapid scaling of proprietary generative AI tools across the shipping lifecycle reduced manual workload, increased shipment per person per day, and enabled real-time dynamic pricing. Management reported these advances contributed to over 30% productivity improvement in two years. Supply Chain Diversification: The company actively supported customers in diversifying away from China-centric supply chains, reducing exposure to volatile trade lanes and helping offset the impact of new tariffs and global trade disruptions. Cost Optimization and Headcount Management: Operating expenses declined due to ongoing productivity initiatives and a leaner workforce, partially attributed to the divestiture of the European Surface Transportation business. Management stressed the use of attrition and dynamic workforce planning to maintain flexibility. Integration of Managed Solutions: The integration of transportation management and managed services under a single strategy, referred to as the "One Robinson" approach, was cited as a lever for moving up the value stack and capturing more wallet share from existing customers. Management expects the external freight environment to remain volatile, with geopolitical developments, tariffs, and evolving supply chain strategies shaping demand. The company's outlook is guided by its focus on automation, cost discipline, and helping clients navigate uncertainty. Automation and AI Expansion: Management believes ongoing investment in generative AI and automation will further decouple headcount from volume, supporting margin expansion and business scalability regardless of market cycles. Customer Supply Chain Shifts: The company expects continued resilience from supporting customers' efforts to diversify sourcing and adapt to changing tariff regimes, potentially lifting demand for customs and managed supply chain solutions. Cost Flexibility and Lean Operations: Ongoing productivity initiatives and dynamic workforce planning are expected to help maintain or improve operating margins, even if freight demand remains subdued or volatile. Alex Johnson (Evercore ISI): Asked about weather-related disruptions and management's ability to handle them; executives described improved, proactive response due to new operating tools and said weather was a "non-event" for results. Jeff Kauffman (Vertical Research Partners): Probed on scenario planning in international forwarding given shifting tariffs; management outlined ongoing diversification away from China and increased customs activity. Brian Ossenbeck (JPMorgan): Inquired about April trends and truckload capacity exit; leadership noted typical seasonal patterns but said no inflection in market demand or capacity yet. Ken Hoexter (Bank of America): Asked about AGP (adjusted gross profit) trends and capital expenditure reduction; CFO clarified both were driven by tougher comps and reprioritization of discretionary spend, with strategic initiatives fully funded. Tom Wadewitz (UBS): Sought clarity on headcount declines and the company's approach to combining managed services and brokerage; management explained the impact of recent divestitures and detailed the new "One Robinson" strategy for integrated service offerings. In the coming quarters, the StockStory team will be watching (1) the pace of market share gains in core truckload and LTL segments, (2) the tangible margin benefits from continued automation and generative AI deployment, and (3) the company's ability to help customers navigate supply chain shifts amid ongoing tariff and trade disruptions. Additionally, the impact of the integrated managed solutions strategy on customer retention and wallet share will be a key signpost for future growth. C.H. Robinson Worldwide currently trades at a forward P/E ratio of 19.9×. Is the company at an inflection point that warrants a buy or sell? Find out in our free research report. Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election sent major indices to all-time highs, but stocks have retraced as investors debate the health of the economy and the potential impact of tariffs.

First look: C.H. Robinson made more money on less revenue in Q1
Total first-quarter revenue for C.H. Robinson was down 8.3%, to just over $4 billion, according to an earnings report released Wednesday afternoon. But income from operations rose to $176.9 million from $137.1 million, an increase of 39.1%. Diluted earnings per share were $1.11. Non-GAAP earnings were $1.17 per share. That is more than what SeekingAlpha said was the consensus forecast of $1.05. However, SeekingAlpha also said the consensus estimate on revenue was $4.25 billion, and C.H. Robinson (NASDAQ: CHRW) came in just over $4 billion. Additionally, comparisons are now 1 year old against the first-quarter 2024 earnings report from the brokerage, when strong sequential growth in the company set off a surge in the stock price that caught many short sellers on the wrong side of the movement – the 3PL was listed by SeekingAlpha at the time as one of the most shorted stocks in the S&P 500 – and marked the first clear impact of the management of CEO Dave Bozeman, who started on the job in late June adjusted operating margin – which is the company's income from operations as a percentage of adjusted gross profit – was 26.3%. That was 700 basis points more than a year ago. Adjusted gross profits in every service line except one rose. The smallest gain came in truckload, 1.9%; the largest was in air, 7.5%. The overall adjusted gross profit for all transportation services, including a category of Other Logistics Services (which had a decline of 8% in adjusted gross profit), rose 2.1%. The cost of purchased transportation and related services fell 10.8%, to just over $3 billion. 'In our North American Surface Transportation (NAST) business, we outgrew the market in both truckload and less than truckload while expanding gross margins and improving productivity — both year-over-year and sequentially,' Bozeman said in prepared remarks released with the has made technology as well as internal practices the core of his management. He referred to it in his prepared statement. C.H. Robinson, he said, continues 'to arm our industry-leading talent with innovative tools that help us materially elevate the customer and carrier experience. We are innovating to harness the power of artificial intelligence and driving automation across the full lifecycle of a load, which gives our customers better service, while also helping us improve our performance by automating tasks that free up our talented people to work on more strategic and higher value work.' .The company's earnings call with analysts is scheduled for 5 p.m. EDT Wednesday.

C.H. Robinson Q1 Earnings Surpass Estimates, Increase Year Over Year
C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. ( CHRW ) reported mixed first-quarter 2025 results, wherein earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate while revenues missed the same. Quarterly earnings per share (EPS) of $1.17 outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.02 and improved 36% year over year. Total revenues of $4.04 billion missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4.31 billion and fell 8.2% year over year, owing to the divestiture of CHRW's Europe Surface Transportation business, lower volume in its North America truckload services, and lower pricing in the ocean services. Adjusted gross profits increased 2.3% year over year to $673.1 million, owing to higher adjusted gross profit per transaction in the company's truckload and LTL services. Adjusted operating margin of 26.3% increased 700 basis points from the year-ago reported quarter. Operating expenses decreased 6.5% year over year to $496.2 million.
