Company Report

2024 Growth Outlook Positive Thanks to Yellow's Share Gains and Favorable Pricing

XPO got its start in mid-2011, when entrepreneur Brad Jacobs led an equity investment in expedited freight brokerage firm Express-1 Expedited Solutions. Jacobs launched an acquisition strategy targeting the asset-light US highway brokerage industry. By mid-2013, XPO's deal focus evolved beyond truck brokerage into heavy-goods last-mile delivery, intermodal, and global contract logistics. Then in 2015, XPO jumped into the asset-based trucking landscape with the acquisition of less-than-truckload carrier Con-Way.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Share gains from bankrupt LTL peer Yellow have provided a material boost to XPO's tonnage and network density.

Bears

Underlying demand across the broader trucking industry is facing near-term headwinds from sluggish industrial end markets and muted retail sector inventory restocking.

Company Profile

Following the spinoff of its contract logistics division (GXO) in 2021 and freight brokerage operations (RXO) in 2022, XPO is moving closer to becoming a pure-play asset-based less-than-truckload carrier. On a pro forma basis for the November RXO spinoff, we estimate LTL shipping now makes up 60% of total revenue, with XPO's European truckload and LTL operations making up 40%. That said, XPO's LTL segment EBITDA mix is much higher than 60%. We believe XPO intends to divest its European trucking division once it finds the right buyer.
