Less-than-truckload net revenues increased 11% compared to the second quarter of 2013. The hike was driven by an 8% increase in total shipments and a slight increase in net revenue margin, according to the company.

Intermodal net revenues increased 9.5%, driven by improved purchased transportation costs, a change in business mix, and a volume increase of 1%, thought the company said intermodal volumes were adversely impacted by railroad service levels.
