PAMT CORP

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are involved in certain claims and pending litigation arising from the ordinary conduct of business. We also provide accruals for claims within our self-insured retention amounts. We currently self-insure for certain layers of auto liability claims in excess of $2.0 million. Specifically, we reserve for claims that are expected to exceed $2.0 million when fully developed, based on the facts and circumstances of those claims. Based on our knowledge of the facts, and in certain cases, opinions of outside counsel, we believe the resolution of such claims and pending litigation will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, if we experience claims that are not covered by our insurance or that exceed our estimated claim reserve, it could increase the volatility of our earnings and have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We were previously a defendant in a motor vehicle accident lawsuit filed on January 10, 2025 in the State Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia, arising from a December 29, 2024 accident between a Company tractor-trailer and a passenger vehicle. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company finalized a settlement agreement with the plaintiff for a total settlement amount of $30.0 million, of which $26.5 million represents the Company’s net exposure after consideration of applicable insurance coverage. The settlement agreement was executed by all parties on March 30, 2026 and resolves all claims related to this matter. For additional information regarding this settlement agreement, see Note L to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
