Landstar markets its freight transportation and logistics services primarily through independent commission sales agents and exclusively utilizes third party capacity providers to transport customers’ freight. Landstar’s independent commission sales agents enter into contractual arrangements with the Company and are responsible for locating freight, making that freight available to Landstar’s capacity providers and coordinating the transportation of the freight with customers and capacity providers. The Company’s third party capacity providers consist of independent contractors who provide truck capacity to the Company under exclusive lease arrangements (the “BCO Independent Contractors”), unrelated trucking companies who provide truck capacity to the Company undernon-exclusive contractual arrangements (the “Truck Brokerage Carriers”), air cargo carriers, ocean cargo carriers and railroads. Through this network of agents and capacity providers linked together by Landstar’s ecosystem of digital technologies, Landstar operates a freight transportation and logistics business primarily throughout North America with revenue of $4.7 billion during the most recently completed fiscal year. The Company reports the results of two operating segments: the transportation logistics segment and the insurance segment.

Previous wording

Effective May 1, 2023, the Company entered into a three year commercial auto liability insurance arrangement for losses incurred between $5 million and $10 million (the “2023 Initial Excess Policy”) with a third party insurance company. For commercial trucking claims incurred on or after May 1, 2023 through May 31, 2026, the 2023 Initial Excess Policy provides for an aggregate deductible of $18 million over the thirty-seven-month term ending May 31, 2026. After payment of the deductible, the 2023 Initial Excess Policy provides for a limit for a single loss of $5 million, with an aggregate limit of $15 million for the thirty-seven-month term ending May 31, 2026.

Current wording

Effective June 1, 2026, the Company entered into a new three year commercial auto liability insurance arrangement for losses incurred between $5 million and $10 million (the “2026 Initial Excess Policy”) with a third party insurance company. For commercial trucking claims incurred on or after June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2029, the 2026 Initial Excess Policy provides for a limit for a single loss of $5 million, with a $10 million per policy year aggregate limit and an aggregate limit of $15 million over thethirty-six month term. It also includes a $2.5 million per policy year aggregate loss corridor. Moreover, in the event paid aggregate losses under the 2026 Initial Excess Policy during the three year period ending May 31, 2029 exceed apre-determined threshold amount, the 2026 Initial Excess Policy requires the Company to pay an additional premium up to a maximum amount of $4 million.

Previous wording

The Company also maintains third party insurance arrangements providing excess coverage for commercial trucking liabilities in excess of $10 million. These third party arrangements provide coverage on a per occurrence or aggregated basis. Over the past fifteen years, there has been a significant increase in the occurrence of trials in courts throughout the United States involving catastrophic injury and fatality claims against commercial motor carriers that have resulted in verdicts in excess of $10 million. Within the transportation logistics industry, these verdicts are often referred to as “Nuclear Verdicts.” The increase in Nuclear Verdicts has had a significant impact on the cost of commercial auto liability claims throughout the United States. Due to the increasing cost of commercial auto liability claims, the availability of excess coverage has significantly decreased, and the pricing associated with such excess coverage, to the extent available, has significantly increased. Since the annual policy year ended April 30, 2020, as compared to the annual policy year ending May 31, 2026, the Company experienced an increase of approximately $22 million, or approximately 400%, in the premiums charged by third party insurance companies to the Company for excess coverage for commercial trucking liabilities in excess of $10 million.

Previous wording

Moreover, the Company from year to year manages the level of its financial exposure to commercial trucking claims in excess of $10 million, including through the use of additional self-insurance, deductibles, aggregate loss limits, quota shares and other structured arrangements with third party insurance companies, based on the availability of coverage within certain excess insurance coverage layers and estimated cost differentials between proposed premiums from third party insurance companies and historical and actuarially projected losses experienced by the Company at various levels of excess insurance coverage. For example, with respect to a single hypothetical claim in the amount of $65 million incurred during the annual policy year ending May 31, 2026, the Company would have an aggregate financial exposure of approximately $36 million. Within the Company’s third party insurance arrangements providing excess coverage for commercial trucking liabilities, structured arrangements with third party reinsurers within a specific loss layer may also include provisions that require additional payments of premium in the event of unfavorable loss experience or a refund of premium in the event of favorable loss experience.

Further, the Company retains liability of up to $2,000,000 for each general liability claim, $250,000 for each workers’ compensation claim and $250,000 for each cargo claim. In addition, under reinsurance arrangements by Signature of certain risks of the Company’s BCO Independent Contractors, the Company retains liability of up to $500,000, $1,000,000 or $2,000,000 with respect to certain occupational accident claims and up to $750,000 with respect to certain workers’ compensation claims. The Company’s exposure to liability associated with accidents incurred by Truck Brokerage Carriers, railroads and air and ocean cargo carriers who transport freight on behalf of the Company is reduced by various legal defenses and other factors including the extent to which such carriers maintain their own insurance coverage. A material increase in the frequency or severity of accidents, cargo claims or workers’ compensation claims or the material unfavorable development of existing claims could have a material adverse effect on Landstar’s cost of insurance and claims and its results of operations.

The Company’s exposure to liability associated with accidents incurred by Truck Brokerage Carriers, railroads and air and ocean cargo carriers who transport freight on behalf of the Company may be reduced by various legal defenses and other factors including the extent to which such carriers maintain their own insurance coverage. However, Montgomery v. Caribe Transport II, LLC has narrowed our ability to rely on Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act of 1994 (the “FAAAA”) preemption as a defense by holding that state-law negligent selection claims against freight brokers fall within the statute’s motor vehicle safety exception, which could have an adverse impact on our claims experience. A material increase in the frequency or severity of accidents, cargo claims or workers’ compensation claims or the material unfavorable development of existing claims could have a material adverse effect on Landstar’s cost of insurance and claims and its results of operations. For more information, see Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors—Increased exposure to Broker Liability Claims” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors—Increased severity or frequency of accidents and other claims or a material unfavorable development of existing claims” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025.

During the thirteen-week period ended March 28, 2026, employee compensation and benefits accounted for approximately 66% of the Company’s selling, general and administrative costs. Employee compensation and benefits include wages and employee benefit costs as well as incentive compensation and stock-based compensation expense. Incentive compensation and stock-based compensation expense is highly variable in nature in comparison to wages and employee benefit costs.

Current wording

During thetwenty-six-week period ended June 27, 2026, employee compensation and benefits accounted for approximately 64% of the Company’s selling, general and administrative costs.

In general, variable contribution margin on revenue generated by BCO Independent Contractors represents a fixed percentage due to the nature of the contracts that pay a fixed percentage of revenue to both the BCO Independent Contractors and independent commission sales agents. For revenue generated by Truck Brokerage Carriers, variable contribution margin may be either a fixed or variable percentage, depending on the contract with each individual independent commission sales agent. Variable contribution margin on revenue generated from shipments hauled by railroads, air cargo carriers, ocean cargo carriers and Truck Brokerage Carriers, other than those under retention contracts, is variable in nature, as the Company’s contracts with independent commission sales agents provide commissions to agents at a contractually agreed upon percentage of the amount represented by revenue less purchased transportation for these types of shipments. Approximately 45% of the Company’s consolidated revenue in the thirteen-week period ended March 28, 2026 was generated under transactions that pay a fixed percentage of revenue to the third party capacity provider and/or agents while 55% was generated under transactions that pay a variable percentage of revenue to the third party capacity provider and/or agents.

The increase in operating income as a percentage of gross profit from the 2025 thirteen-week period to the 2026 thirteen-week period resulted from the increase of operating income at a more rapid percentage rate than the increase in gross profit, as the Company was able to scale its fixed cost infrastructure, primarily certain components of selling, general and administrative costs, across a larger gross profit base, and the impact of the supply chain fraud matter in the 2025 thirteen-week period and decreased insurance and claims costs in the 2026 thirteen-week period.

Current wording

The increase in operating income as a percentage of gross profit from the 2025 twenty-six-week period to the 2026 twenty-six-week period resulted from the increase of operating income at a more rapid percentage rate than the increase in gross profit, as the Company was able to scale its fixed cost infrastructure, primarily certain components of selling, general and administrative costs, across a larger gross profit base, and the impact of the supply chain fraud matter in the 2025 twenty-six-week period. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of gross profit from the 2025 thirteen-week period to the 2026 thirteen-week period was primarily due to an increased provision for incentive compensation in the 2026 thirteen-week period.

The slight increase in operating income as a percentage of variable contribution from the 2025 thirteen-week period to the 2026 thirteen-week period resulted from the increase in operating income occurring at a slightly more rapid percentage rate than the increase in variable contribution, as the Company was able to scale its fixed cost infrastructure, primarily certain components of selling, general and administrative costs, across a larger variable contribution base, almost entirely offset by increased insurance and claims costs and an increased provision for incentive compensation in the 2026 thirteen-week period.

Fuel surcharges billed to customers on revenue generated by BCO Independent Contractors are excluded from revenue. Fuel surcharges on Truck Brokerage Carrier revenue identified separately in billings to customers and included as a component of Truck Brokerage Carrier revenue were $26,691,000 and $26,925,000 in the 2026 and 2025 thirteen-week periods, respectively. It should be noted that billings to many customers of the Company’s truck brokerage services include a singleall-in rate that do not separately identify fuel surcharges on loads hauled via Truck Brokerage Carriers. Accordingly, the overall impact of changes in fuel prices on revenue and revenue per load on loads hauled via truck is likely to be greater than that indicated.

Current wording

Fuel surcharges billed to customers on revenue generated by BCO Independent Contractors are excluded from revenue. Fuel surcharges on Truck Brokerage Carrier revenue identified separately in billings to customers and included as a component of Truck Brokerage Carrier revenue were $71,237,000 and $54,016,000 in the 2026 and 2025 twenty-six-week periods, respectively.

Other operating costs increased $2,971,000 in the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. The increase in other operating costs compared to the prior year was primarily due to increased trailer equipment maintenance costs, increased trailer rental costs and decreased gains on sales of operating property.

Current wording

Other operating costs increased $1,321,000 in the 2026 twenty-six-week period compared to the 2025 twenty-six-week period. The increase in other operating costs compared to the prior year was primarily due to increased trailer equipment maintenance costs, increased trailer rental costs and decreased gains on sales of operating property, partially offset by an approximately $4,800,000 expense relating to the supply chain fraud matter in the 2025 twenty-six-week period referenced above under “Expenses - Other operating costs, net of gains on asset sales/dispositions.”

The increase in transportation revenue was attributable to an increased revenue per load of approximately 4%, while the number of loads hauled decreased approximately 3% as compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. Reinsurance premiums were $14,290,000 and $14,757,000 for the 2026 and 2025 thirteen-week periods, respectively. The decrease in revenue from reinsurance premiums was primarily attributable to a decrease in the average number of trucks provided by BCO Independent Contractors in the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period.

Current wording

Revenue for the 2026 thirteen-week period was $1,432,264,000, an increase of $220,881,000, or 18%, compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. Transportation revenue increased $221,078,000, or 18%.

The increase in revenue per load on loads hauled via truck was primarily due to increased revenue per load on loads hauled via unsided/platform equipment, which was partially attributable to an increase in the percentage of revenue contributed by heavy/specialized equipment, which typically has a higher revenue per load than unsided/platform loadings transported using standard flatbed and other less specialized pieces of platform equipment. During the 2026 thirteen-week period, revenue per load on loads hauled via unsided/platform equipment increased 11%, on less-than-truckload loadings increased 8% and on loads hauled via van equipment increased 5%, while revenue per load on other truck transportation services decreased 11%, in each case, as compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period.

Current wording

The increase in revenue per load on loads hauled via truck was primarily due to a tightening truck capacity environment in the 2026 thirteen-week period and the impact of higher diesel fuel costs on loads hauled via Truck Brokerage Carriers. During the 2026 thirteen-week period, revenue per load on less-than-truckload loadings increased 32%, via unsided/platform equipment increased 20% and on loads hauled via van equipment increased 16%, while revenue per load on other truck transportation services decreased 8%, in each case, as compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period.

Previous wording

The decrease in the number of loads hauled via truck for the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period was primarily due to decreased demand from the 2025 thirteen-week period for the Company’s van, unsided/platform and less-than-truckload services and, secondarily, due to efforts by customers in the 2025 first quarter to “pull-forward” shipments typically scheduled to occur later in the year in an effort to avoid the potential impact of tariffs that subsequently may have become effective in fiscal year 2025. Loads hauled via van equipment decreased 4%, loads hauled via unsided/platform equipment decreased 2% and loads hauled via less-than-truckload loadings decreased 2%, while loads hauled via other truck transportation services increased 5%, in each case, as compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period.

Current wording

The increase in the number of loads hauled via truck for the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period was primarily due to increased demand from the 2025 thirteen-week period for the Company’s van, unsided/platform and other truck transportation services and, secondarily, due to efforts by customers in the 2025 first quarter to “pull-forward” shipments typically scheduled to occur later in the year in an effort to avoid the potential impact of tariffs that subsequently may have become effective in fiscal year 2025. Loads hauled via other truck transportation services increased 7%, loads hauled via van equipment increased 5% and loads hauled via unsided/platform equipment increased 2%, while less-than-truckload loadings decreased 25%, in each case, as compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period.

Previous wording

Transportation revenue generated by rail intermodal, air cargo and ocean cargo carriers (collectively, the “multimode capacity providers”) for the 2026 thirteen-week period was $67,283,000, or 6% of total revenue, a decrease of $15,841,000, or 19%, compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. The number of loads hauled by multimode capacity providers decreased approximately 13% in the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period, and revenue per load on revenue generated by multimode capacity providers decreased approximately 7% over the same period. The decrease in the number of loads hauled by multimode capacity providers was due to a 31% decrease in ocean loadings and a 12% decrease in air loadings, while rail loadings increased 7%. The 31% decrease in ocean loadings was broad-based with decreases at several customers, which the Company partially attributes to efforts by customers in the 2025 first quarter to “pull-forward” shipments typically scheduled to occur later in the year in an effort to avoid the potential impact of tariffs that subsequently may have become effective in fiscal year 2025. The 12% decrease in air loadings was primarily attributable to decreases at one specific agency. The 7% increase in rail loadings was primarily attributable to increased loadings at one specific agency. Revenue per load on loads hauled via air decreased approximately 3%, while ocean and rail intermodal increased approximately 4% and 3%, respectively, during the 2026 thirteen-week period as compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. The decrease in revenue per load on loads hauled by air cargo carriers was primarily attributable to decreases at several specific customers during the 2026 thirteen-week period. The increase in revenue per load on loads hauled by ocean was primarily attributable to increases at several customers during the 2026 thirteen-week period. The increase in revenue per load on loads hauled by rail intermodal carriers was broad-based with increases at multiple customers during the 2026 thirteen-week period. Revenue per load on revenue generated by multimode capacity providers is influenced by many factors, including revenue mix among the various modes of transportation used, length of haul, complexity of freight, density of freight lanes, fuel costs and availability of capacity.

Current wording

Transportation revenue generated by multimode capacity providers for the 2026 thirteen-week period was $77,505,000, or 5% of total revenue, an increase of $4,688,000, or 6%, compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. Revenue per load on revenue generated by multimode capacity providers increased approximately 4% in the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period, and the number of loads hauled by multimode capacity providers increased approximately 3% over the same period. Revenue per load on loads hauled via air and rail intermodal increased approximately 50% and 16%, respectively, while ocean revenue per load decreased approximately 5% during the 2026 thirteen-week period as compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. The increase in revenue per load on loads hauled by air cargo carriers was primarily attributable to increases at several specific customers during the 2026 thirteen-week period. The increase in revenue per load on loads hauled by rail intermodal carriers was broad-based with increases at multiple customers during the 2026 thirteen-week period. The decrease in revenue per load on loads hauled by ocean was primarily attributable to decreases at several customers during the 2026 thirteen-week period. Revenue per load on revenue generated by multimode capacity providers is influenced by many factors, including revenue mix among the various modes of transportation used, length of haul, complexity of freight, density of freight lanes, fuel costs and availability of capacity. The increase in the number of loads hauled by multimode capacity providers was due to a 9% increase in rail loadings, while air loadings decreased 5% and ocean loadings decreased 3%. The 9% increase in rail loadings was primarily attributable to increased loadings at one specific agency. The 5% decrease in air loadings was primarily attributable to decreases at one specific agency. The 3% decrease in ocean loadings was broad-based with decreases at several customers.

Previous wording

Purchased transportation was 77.4% and 77.9% of revenue in the 2026 and 2025 thirteen-week periods, respectively. The decrease in purchased transportation as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to an increased percentage of revenue generated by BCO Independent Contractors, which typically has a lower rate of purchased transportation than Truck Brokerage Carriers. Commissions to agents were 7.9% and 8.1% of revenue in the 2026 and 2025 thirteen-week periods, respectively. The decrease in commissions to agents as a percentage of revenue was primarily attributable to an increased cost of purchased transportation as a percentage of revenue on revenue generated by Truck Brokerage Carriers.

Current wording

Purchased transportation was 78.4% and 77.7% of revenue in the 2026 and 2025 thirteen-week periods, respectively. The increase in purchased transportation as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to an increased cost of purchased transportation as a percentage of revenue on revenue generated by Truck Brokerage Carriers, partially offset by favorable mix. Commissions to agents were 7.6% and 8.2% of revenue in the 2026 and 2025 thirteen-week periods, respectively. The decrease in commissions to agents as a percentage of revenue was primarily attributable to an increased cost of purchased transportation as a percentage of revenue on revenue generated by Truck Brokerage Carriers.

Previous wording

Previous wording

Insurance and claims decreased $4,288,000 in the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. The decrease in insurance and claims expense compared to the prior year was primarily due to decreased net unfavorable development of prior years’ claims in the 2026 thirteen-week period, partially offset by increased frequency of current year trucking claims during the 2026 thirteen-week period and increased BCO miles traveled during the 2026 thirteen-week period. During the 2026 and 2025 thirteen-week periods, insurance and claims costs included $4,888,000 and $11,352,000 of net unfavorable adjustments to prior years’ claims estimates, respectively.

Current wording

Insurance and claims increased $8,910,000 in the 2026 thirteen-week period compared to the 2025 thirteen-week period. The increase in insurance and claims expense compared to the prior year was primarily due to increased net unfavorable development of prior years’ claims in the 2026 thirteen-week period, increased BCO miles traveled during the 2026 thirteen-week period and increased severity of current year trucking claims during the 2026 thirteen-week period, partially offset by decreased frequency of both current year trucking and current year cargo claims during the 2026 thirteen-week period.
