For the third quarter, total Transportation gross profits increased 31.9 percent to $198.0 million in 2005 from $150.1 million in 2004. Our transportation gross profit margin increased to 16.3 percent in 2005 from 15.9 percent in 2004.
“The increase in our truck transportation gross profits of 31.4 percent in the third quarter of 2005 was driven by volume growth and price increases in both truckload and less-than-truckload transactions,” the company said in the announcement. “Tight capacity created opportunities with new and existing customers. We are adding new carriers and expanding our existing carrier relationships, both of which gave us the capacity we needed to efficiently meet these needs.”
