Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.
Earnings quality
latest fiscal year ending 2025-12-31 · accruals and cash conversion as filedPer fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES We have committed to property and equipment purchases of approximately $24.9 million at December 31, 2025. We are involved in certain claims and pending litigation, including those described herein, arising in the ordinary course of business. The majority of these claims relate to bodily injury, property damage, cargo and workers compensation incurred in the transportation of freight, as well as certain class action litigation related to personnel and employment matters. We accrue for the uninsured portion of contingent losses from these and other pending claims when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Based on the knowledge of the facts, management believes the resolution of claims and pending litigation, taking into account existing reserves, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict, and our view of these matters may change in the future as the litigation and related events unfold. On May 17, 2018, in Harris County District Court in Houston, Texas, a jury rendered an adverse verdict against the Company in a lawsuit arising from a December 30, 2014 accident between a Werner tractor-trailer and a passenger vehicle. On July 30, 2018, the court entered a final judgment against Werner for $92.0 million, including pre-judgment interest. The Company pursued an ap …

FAIR VALUE Fair Value Measurement Definition and Hierarchy ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurement , defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820-10 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels, as follows: Level 1 Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Such inputs include quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active and inactive markets, inputs other than quoted price …

Leases · 4,071 characters as filed
LEASES We have entered into operating leases primarily for real estate. The leases have terms which range from 2 years to 18 years, and some include options to renew. Renewal terms are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option to renew. Operating leases are included in other non-current assets, other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. These assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date, using our incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable. We have certain contracts for real estate that may contain lease and non-lease components which we have elected to treat as a single lease component. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease expense is recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Lease expense is reported in rent and purchased transportation on the consolidated statements of income.

RESTRUCTURING AND IMPAIRMENT COSTS In the fourth quarter of 2025, we recognized expense of $44.2 million in restructuring and impairment on the consolidated statements of income. During the fourth quarter 2025, we began to incur costs in connection with the strategic restructuring of our One-Way Truckload business to enhance long-term profitability and fleet utilization by maximizing production and mitigating unprofitable freight. Key steps in this initiative included exiting selective unprofitable regional and short-haul truckload freight, further integrating our one-way acquisition operations, and a further shift in the One-Way Truckload fleet composition toward more specialized, expedited (Expedited), and team capacity. This repositioning is focused on eliminating underperforming business. The restructuring reflects the necessary steps to rationalize our assets and business model for future margin expansion. These costs, collectively referred to as restructuring and impairment costs, are comprised of $21.7 million of impairment on trademark and customer relationship intangible assets, $14.4 million of impairment on revenue equipment, $6.6 million of other revenue equipment costs, and $1.5 million relating to the removal of prepaid expenses, inventory, and other current assets. These costs are recorded in our One-Way Truckload operating segment within our TTS reportable segment.

SEGMENT INFORMATION We have two reportable segments TTS and Werner Logistics. The TTS reportable segment consists of two operating segments, Dedicated and One-Way Truckload. These operating segments are aggregated because they have similar economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria described in the accounting guidance for segment reporting. Dedicated provides truckload services dedicated to a specific customer, generally for a retail distribution center or manufacturing facility, utilizing either dry van or specialized trailers. One-Way Truckload is comprised of the following operating fleets: (i) the medium-to-long-haul van (Van) fleet transports a variety of consumer nondurable products and other commodities in truckload quantities over irregular routes using dry van trailers, including Mexico cross-border routes; (ii) the Expedited fleet provides time-sensitive truckload services utilizing driver teams; (iii) the regional short-haul (Regional) fleet provides comparable truckload van service within geographic regions across the United States; and (iv) the Temperature Controlled fleet provides truckload services for temperature sensitive products over irregular routes utilizing temperature-controlled trailers. Revenues for the TTS segment include a small amount of non-trucking revenues which consist primarily of the intra-Mexico portion of cross-border shipments delivered to or from Mexico where we utilize a third-party capacity provider.

Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels, as follows: Level 1 Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Such inputs include quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active and inactive markets, inputs other than quoted price …

Income taxes · 1,551 characters as filed
Income Taxes On July 4, 2025, the United States enacted a budget reconciliation package known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), which includes significant provisions such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and the restoration of favorable tax treatments for certain business provisions. ASC 740, Income Taxes , requires entities to recognize the effects of new income tax legislation on deferred tax balances in the reporting period in which the legislation is enacted. We recorded the effects of the OBBBA on deferred tax balances during the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. The new legislation did not have a material effect on our results of operations and financial condition but it did have a favorable impact on our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, resulting from the reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation for qualified property. Our effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 48.2% and 26.7%, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was higher than the same period of 2024 due to return to provision adjustments of $4.7 million related to changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities for certain acquired entities and a subsidiary located in Mexico. These return to provision adjustments had an unfavorable impact on our earnings and effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 3 …

Leases · 4,451 characters as filed
Leases We have entered into operating leases primarily for real estate. The leases have terms which range from 2 years to 18 years, and some include options to renew. Renewal terms are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option to renew. Operating leases are included in other non-current assets, other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated condensed balance sheets. These assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date, using our incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable. We have certain contracts for real estate that may contain lease and non-lease components which we have elected to treat as a single lease component. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease expense is recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Lease expense is reported in rent and purchased transportation on the consolidated statements of income. The following table presents balance sheet and other operating lease information (dollars in thousands): September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Right-of-use assets (recorded in other non-current assets) $ 40,838 $ 49,599 Current lease liabilities (recorded in other current liabilities) $ 15,460 $ 15,352 Long-term lease liabilities (recorded in …
