XPO sits 77% above its 52-week low of $116.68.
Summary
XPO delivered a standout Q2, with adjusted EPS of $1.70 smashing the $1.47 consensus and revenue of $2.36B beating the $2.28B estimate. The North American LTL segment drove the beat, posting higher yields, shipment volumes, and a record low damage claims ratio. Adjusted EBITDA of $434M also topped expectations, reflecting productivity gains from AI and network investments.
