Old Dominion Freight Line provides update for second quarter 2025

Jun 04, 2025

Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. reported certain less-than-truckload (“LTL”) operating metrics for May 2025. Revenue per day decreased 5.8% as compared to May 2024 due to an 8.4% decrease in LTL tons per day that was partially offset by an increase in LTL revenue per hundredweight. The decrease in LTL tons per day was attributable to a 6.8% decrease in LTL shipments per day and a 1.9% decrease in LTL weight per shipment. For the quarter-to-date period, LTL revenue per hundredweight and LTL revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges, increased 3.2% and 5.6%, respectively, as compared to the same period last year.

Marty Freeman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Old Dominion, commented, “Our revenue results for May reflect continued softness in the domestic economy as well as the impact of lower fuel prices on our yields. We believe that our market share has remained relatively consistent throughout this extended period of economic softness, despite the year-over-year decrease in our LTL volumes. Customers have continued to value our industry-leading service, which supports our ongoing yield management initiatives. While the macroeconomic environment remains uncertain, we will continue to focus on executing on our long-term strategic plan. Our service metrics and value proposition remain best in class, which we believe puts us in a unique position to win profitable market share and increase shareholder value over the long term.”
