Citigroup Maintains Neutral on ArcBest, Raises Price Target to $127

Old Dominion Freight Line Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ODFL#NASDAQ">ODFL</a>) just reaffirmed its status as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/shipping">the gold standard</a> in less-than-truckload (LTL) freight, according to JPMorgan analyst Brian Ossenbeck, who recently pored over insights from the 2024 Mastio Survey.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Old Dominion's Playbook: The Industry's Gold Standard For 15 Years</h2>
The survey, with feedback from roughly 1,600 shippers, showcases Old Dominion's dominance in an industry where rivals are scrambling to catch up.
Despite the buzz around newer strategies, Ossenbeck's analysis indicates that Old Dominion still has a substantial lead. Peers like XPO Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPO#NYSE">XPO</a>) and Saia Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAIA#NASDAQ">SAIA</a>) may be adopting aspects of Old Dominion's "playbook". They&#8217;ve been prioritizing service, improving network efficiency, and leveraging pricing power. But even after implementing these strategies, they've only narrowed the gap by 7%. 
Ossenbeck puts it simply—executing Old Dominion's playbook is easier said than done.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ArcBest, XPO Make Gains, While TForce, Saia Lag</h2>
Among the pack, ArcBest Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARCB#NASDAQ">ARCB</a>) and XPO made notable strides in 2024. 
ArcBest showed the largest service improvement, with strong gains in on-time pickup and delivery, key metrics for shippers. 
XPO, with its LTL 2.0 strategy, also achieved robust performance gains, especially with smaller shippers. Meanwhile, Estes held steady, maintaining a high service level but not outpacing peers in improvement.
At the other end of the spectrum, TForce Freight is struggling with cost efficiencies and service expectations. Saia, despite a network expansion, saw its service performance slip, a trend Ossenbeck expects to stabilize in the coming year.
And then there's FedEx Freight – which has the second-slowest performance improvement among national carriers.
For 15 years running, Old Dominion has been the reigning champ in LTL freight, while peers have been taking notes. According to Ossenbeck, OD's mastery in service, pricing, and network efficiency keeps it miles ahead – leaving everyone else playing catch-up.

ArcBest Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARCB#NASDAQ">ARCB</a>) shares are trading lower after the company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b41678433/arcbest-announces-third-quarter-2024-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">worse-than-expected third-quarter 2024 results</a>.
The company reported a third-quarter revenue decline of 5.8% year over year to $1.06 billion, missing the consensus of $1.07 billion.
Sales by segments: Asset-Based $707.7 million (per-day decrease of 5.8%), and Asset-Light $385.3 million (per-day decrease of 9.6%).
Asset-based business total tonnage per day decreased by 11.3%, and total shipments per day fell by 0.7% Y/Y.
Pricing momentum continued in the quarter, driven by a 5.9% general rate increase on Sept. 9, and contract renewal increases of 4.6%. Overall, LTL industry pricing remains rational.
Meanwhile, Asset-Light revenues fell due to lower shipment rates and a higher mix of smaller managed transportation shipments. Shipments per day dipped, but productivity rose, with shipments per employee up 19.5% year over year. Soft freight and excess capacity continue to weigh on results.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations declined to $86.404 million from $101.59 million a year ago.
Adjusted EPS was $1.64 compared to $2.31 a year ago, missing the consensus of $1.83.
ArcBest's operating cash flow for the nine months totaled $229.05 million, compared to $194.76 million a year ago. The company held cash and equivalents of $150.46 million as of the end of September.
"Over the past year, we have made substantial strides in controlling costs, improving productivity, and enhancing our service quality. These efforts contributed to ABF once again being recognized by Mastio for exceeding the industry benchmark for service," said Judy R. McReynolds, ArcBest chairman and CEO
Price Action: ARCB shares traded lower by 5.22% at $98.96 premarket at the last check Friday.
