- Revenue Growth: Driven by meaningful project charter revenues and incremental revenue from three acquisitions completed in the period (Foundation Logistics, Focus Logistics, and TCB Transportation).
- Margin Compression: Net transportation margins decreased from 28.1% to 24.1% due to the inclusion of project charter revenues, which have lower gross profit characteristics.
- Operating Expenses: Operating partner commissions decreased by $11.5 million (23.2%) due to the conversion of strategic operating partners to company-owned locations. Conversely, depreciation and amortization increased by $0.9 million due to new intangible assets from acquisitions.
- One-Time Costs: Lease termination costs of $1.2 million were incurred to relocate a warehouse facility in British Columbia.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
- Internal Controls: Management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2024, due to a material weakness in the recording and processing of revenue transactions. Remediation is ongoing, with a goal to resolve the weakness in Fiscal Year 2025.
- Outlook: The company expects to continue growing organically and through acquisitions. Future results may be impacted by amortization of intangible assets, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, and interest rate swap contracts.
- Risks: Key risks include global economic uncertainty, inflation, geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions, and the potential impact of the material weakness in internal controls on financial reporting accuracy.
- Stock Repurchases: The company repurchased 129,360 shares for $0.7 million during the quarter. Approximately 4.7 million shares remain available under the current repurchase program.

- Review the fair value adjustments to contingent consideration liabilities, which can significantly impact net income volatility.
- Assess the company's liquidity position relative to its $200 million credit facility and upcoming contingent consideration payments totaling $14.3 million.
