PAMT CORP

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors as previously disclosed in Item 1A to Part I of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The imposition of tariffs on Mexico, Canada and other countries, and any retaliatory actions by such countries, may have a negative impact on our operations and profitability.

The United States has recently initiated implementation of significant new tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, China and other countries, and a number of these countries have announced or initiated retaliatory tariffs on exports from the United States. While certain tariffs have been suspended and/or modified on more than one occasion, the outlook remains uncertain as to what tariffs may ultimately be implemented and for how long they may be in effect. Additionally, it is uncertain the extent to which resulting retaliatory tariffs on U.S. exports may ultimately be imposed by other countries and for how long they may be in effect. There is the potential that any tariffs that have been or may be implemented could adversely affect our business operations and financial results. In particular, the imposition and enforcement of tariffs on goods imported from Mexico or Canada, or vice versa, could adversely affect our business operations and financial results because of our business in those countries. A significant portion of our business is dependent on the automotive manufacturing industry and its suppliers, which have substantial operations in Mexico and Canada. Any increases in current tariffs or the implementation of new tariffs could lead to higher costs and reduced availability and consumer demand for automotive and other products sold by our customers that are imported or exported to or from the United States. This, in turn, may result in reduced demand for our transportation services, particularly our cross-border and Mexico freight business, as customers seek to mitigate increased expenses by reducing production, sourcing components from alternative locations, or modifying their supply chain strategies. This could reduce the volume of goods transported by us, thereby affecting our operational efficiency and financial performance. In addition to the direct impact on our customers, the broader economic implications of tariffs could lead to further fluctuations in cross-border or general freight volumes and affect our operations and our ability to maintain consistent service levels. Any such disruptions could necessitate adjustments in our operational strategies, increase our costs and negatively impact our revenue and profitability.
