Holding Company to Reinvigorate Heritage Yellow Brand

Leadership and Board of Directors Changes Announced

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Nov. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- YRC Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: YRCW) reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020. Operating revenue was $1.183 billion and operating income was $19.4 million. In comparison, operating revenue in the third quarter of 2019 was $1.257 billion and operating income was $23.8 million, which included a $1.0 million net loss on property disposals.

Net loss for third quarter 2020 was $2.0 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to net loss of $16.0 million, or $0.48 per share, in third quarter 2019.  

“During the quarter we transitioned to managing our business in a tighter capacity environment and setting the stage for 2021. Improving tonnage trends late in Q3 has allowed LTL pricing to firm up with less volatility expected moving forward” said Darren Hawkins, Chief Executive Officer.

“We ended the quarter with just over $450 million in liquidity with a reaffirmed focus on managing our operations through the changes we’ve seen over the past 6 months, which has put us in a position to invest back into our business as we move forward. At the beginning of the quarter we secured a commitment with the US Treasury, and in October we received the first $75 million of the $400 million in Tranche B funds. These funds are dedicated for investment in our fleet”, continued Hawkins.

Yellow Brand
The Company announced that in 2021 the holding company will move forward under the heritage Yellow brand. The Company anticipates its LTL brands Holland, New Penn, Reddaway and YRC Freight, as well as HNRY Logistics will continue operating under their current names.

“Following an in-depth study, Yellow is the right brand and it’s the right time to modernize our existing holding company brand in conjunction with our enterprise transformation. The YRC Worldwide Inc. name was selected over a decade ago when the strategy of the Company included pursuits outside of North America. Today we have one of the largest, most comprehensive LTL and logistics networks focused on serving North America and the Yellow brand, as the original LTL company, reflects a strong and proud history”, continued Hawkins.

Leadership and Board of Directors
The Company also announced today that Jamie Pierson has resigned as the Chief Financial Officer and from the Board of Directors. This departure does not reflect any disagreements about the Company’s past financial reports or disclosures.

“Jamie has been instrumental in several financial transactions at critical times that have helped preserve an essential part of the American supply chain and the livelihoods of 30,000 families. Most recently he helped facilitate the CARES Act loan process and secure the other amendments to our credit facilities. We thank Jamie for his dedicated service to YRCW”, continued Hawkins.

As a result of this change effective immediately, Dan Olivier has been appointed as interim CFO. He has 22 years with the Company, including 12 years as the Vice President of Finance at Holland. Most recently Mr. Olivier served as the Vice President, Financial Planning and Analysis at YRC Worldwide Inc.

“Dan’s knowledge of the Company and his extensive involvement with every aspect of our business will provide for a smooth transition during this interim period,” continued Hawkins.

The Company recently named Leah Dawson Executive Vice President and General Counsel. Previously she had served as YRC Worldwide Inc.’s Assistant General Counsel since 2012. In addition, Darrel Harris has joined the Company and will serve in the newly created position of Executive Vice President of Strategic Initiatives. He most recently served as CEO of Xpress Global Systems for the past four years and is a 25-year industry veteran with extensive LTL experience.

The Company also announced two additions to its Board of Directors, former New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez and Shaunna D. Jones. Governor Martinez was the first female Hispanic governor in United States history and the first female governor of New Mexico. Ms. Jones has a legal background focused on transformation and strategic initiatives and currently serves as the U.S. Director of Diversity & Inclusion at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP.

“As we move forward with our work to operate as one company, Governor Martinez’s and Ms. Jones’s backgrounds will enhance our ability to grow while building our workforce with leaders that bring to us new perspectives and experiences”, concluded Hawkins.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that reflects the company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that reflects EBITDA, and further adjusts for letter of credit fees, equity-based compensation expense, net gains or losses on property disposals, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to issuances of debt, non-recurring consulting fees, non-cash impairment charges and the gains or losses from permitted dispositions, discontinued operations, and certain non-cash expenses, charges and losses (provided that if any of such non-cash expenses, charges or losses represents an accrual or reserve for potential cash items in any future period, the cash payment in respect thereof in such future period will be subtracted from Adjusted EBITDA in such future period to the extent paid). Adjusted EBITDA as used herein is defined as Consolidated EBITDA in our UST Credit Agreements and New Term Loan Agreement (collectively, the “TL Agreements”). EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used for internal management purposes as a financial measure that reflects the company’s core operating performance. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure compliance with financial covenants in our TL Agreements and to determine certain management and employee bonus compensation. We believe our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and other users as these measures represent key supplemental information our management uses to compare and evaluate our core underlying business results, particularly in light of our leverage position and the capital-intensive nature of our business. Further, EBITDA is a measure that is commonly used by other companies in our industry and provides a comparison for investors to evaluate the performance of the companies in the industry. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA helps investors to understand how the company is tracking against our financial covenants in our TL Agreements.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have the following limitations:

• EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or fund principal payments on our outstanding debt;
  
  
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or fund principal payments on our outstanding debt, letter of credit expenses, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to debt, non-cash charges, charges or losses (subject to the conditions above), or nonrecurring consulting fees, among other items;
  
  
• Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will have to be replaced in the future and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
  
  
• Equity-based compensation is an element of our long-term incentive compensation program for certain employees, although Adjusted EBITDA excludes employee equity-based compensation expense when presenting our ongoing operating performance for a particular period; and
  
  
• Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
  

Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using our non-GAAP measures as secondary measures. The company has provided reconciliations of its non-GAAP measures to GAAP net income (loss) and operating income (loss) within the supplemental financial information in this release.

	(a)	Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year to conform to current year presentation.
	(b)	Non-cash reserve changes reflect the net non-cash reserve charge for union and non-union vacation, with such non-cash reserve adjustment to be reduced by cash charges in a future period when paid.
	(c)	Pursuant to the UST Credit Agreements and New Term Loan Agreement, Adjusted EBITDA limits certain adjustments in aggregate to 10% of the trailing-twelve-month ("TTM") consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, prior to the inclusion of amounts subject to the 10% threshold, for each period ending. Such adjustments include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges, integration costs, severance, and non-recurring charges. The limitation calculation is updated quarterly based on TTM Adjusted EBITDA, however, the sum of the quarters may not necessarily equal TTM Adjusted EBITDA due to the expiration of adjustments from prior periods.
