SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Expeditors International of Washington, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXPD) today
announced fourth quarter 2018 financial results including the following
highlights compared to the same quarter of 2017:
-
Diluted Net Earnings Attributable to Shareholders per share (EPS1)
increased 11% to $1.02
-
Net Earnings Attributable to Shareholders increased 7% to $179 million
-
Operating Income increased 9% to $217 million
-
Revenues increased 18% to $2.24 billion
-
Net Revenues2 increased 8% to $681 million
-
Airfreight tonnage volumes increased 2% and ocean container volumes
increased 10%
“The fourth quarter marked a strong finish to a record year of growth in
revenues, net revenues, volumes, and profitability,” said Jeffrey S.
Musser, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The air and ocean
markets have continued to be highly unpredictable, with ongoing shifts
in the balance of supply and demand requiring extra attention to address
the needs of each individual customer. These are the conditions when our
people really prove themselves, as they did in Q4 and throughout the
year. I commend them for continuing to grow volumes in ocean and air,
with a determined focus on profitability. During the quarter, our air
and customs brokerage segments were particularly strong once again. In
addition, we further improved our ocean business by growing volumes
while adjusting sell rates. We accomplished all of this in spite of
ongoing rate pressure, as the industry evolves and carriers continue to
test the supply/demand imbalance.
“Throughout 2018, we did a terrific job of growing net revenues ahead of
headcount and related costs,” Mr. Musser continued. “We also generated
improved efficiencies, while establishing a selective mix of business
partners who value an elevated level of customer service. Our ability to
perform well comes from our deeply ingrained, core culture that puts
customer service at the forefront.”
Bradley S. Powell, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer,
added, “We carefully managed expenses as net revenues grew during the
quarter, demonstrating the effectiveness of our processes and
technology. During the quarter, net revenues grew at roughly twice the
rate of headcount and related expenses, and, at nearly 32%, our fourth
quarter operating efficiency (operating income as a percentage of net
revenue) was the highest since Q2 2016.”
Mr. Powell noted that the Company’s effective tax rate for the full year
was 24.3%, compared to 31.8% in 2017. The Company’s lower effective tax
rates were principally due to the lower U.S. federal tax rate that
resulted from the 2017 Tax Act, significant share-based compensation
deductions, U.S. federal tax credits from withholding taxes related to
our foreign operations, and deductions for foreign-derived intangible
income. Mr. Powell reiterated that the Company’s effective tax rate will
be largely dependent upon the mix of pretax earnings that are generated
in its U.S. versus foreign operations, as well as any further
interpretations and guidance issued on the tax law in the future.

4 Net earnings in the fourth quarter of 2017 include a
$39 million net income tax benefit that resulted from the effect of
the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act. This amount was composed of the
remeasurement of net deferred tax liabilities and assets, based on
the new lower U.S. corporate tax rate, the recording of a
provisional estimate of the one-time mandatory tax on the
undistributed earnings of the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries, and
the effects of the transition to a territorial tax system in the U.S. |
|
During the three and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2018, the
Company repurchased 1.3 million and 9.0 million shares of common stock
at an average price of $71.82 and $71.61 per share, respectively. During
the three and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2017, the Company
repurchased 2.1 million and 8.2 million shares of common stock at an
average price of $64.52 and $58.16 per share, respectively.

Net Revenues (Non-GAAP measure)
We commonly refer to the term “net revenues” when commenting about our
Company and the results of its operations. Net revenues are a Non-GAAP
measure calculated as revenues less directly related operating expenses
attributable to the Company's principal services. We believe that net
revenues are a better measure than are total revenues when analyzing and
discussing our effectiveness in managing our principal services since
total revenues earned as a freight consolidator include the carriers'
charges to us for carrying the shipment, whereas revenues earned in
other capacities include primarily the commissions and fees earned by
us. Net revenue is one of our primary operational and financial measures
and demonstrates our ability to concentrate and leverage purchasing
power through effective consolidation of shipments from customers
utilizing a variety of transportation carriers and optimal routings.
Using net revenues also provides a commonality for comparison among
various services. The following table presents the calculation of net
revenues.
