XPO announced its financial results for the second quarter 2025. The company reported diluted earnings per share of $0.89, compared with $1.25 for the same period in 2024, and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.05, compared with $1.12 for the same period in 2024.
Mario Harik, chief executive officer of XPO, said, “We delivered strong results in the second quarter, with adjusted EBITDA of $340 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $1.05, both exceeding expectations.
“In our North American LTL business, we achieved an adjusted operating ratio of 82.9%, reflecting an industry-best year-over-year improvement of 30 basis points. While our tonnage declined in the soft freight environment, our world-class service culture drove above-market pricing growth and share gains with local customers. We grew yield, excluding fuel, by 6.1% and increased revenue per shipment by 5.6% from the prior year, with sequential growth in both metrics. On the cost side, we reduced purchased transportation expense by 53% as we insourced linehaul miles to a record level. And we generated another gain in labor productivity, supported by our proprietary technology.”
Harik continued, “We’re executing at a high level and consistently outperforming the industry, with a strategy that positions us to deliver long-term margin expansion and earnings growth.”
