C.H. Robinson Reports 2025 Second Quarter Results
Eden Prairie, MN, July 30, 2025 - C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. (“C.H. Robinson”) (Nasdaq: CHRW) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
Second Quarter Highlights:
Sustained outperformance delivered by disciplined execution of the company's strategic initiatives, generating market share gains, gross margin expansion and higher operating margins
Gross profits increased 0.4% to $679.6 million
Income from operations increased 21.2% to $215.9 million
Adjusted operating margin(1) increased 520 basis points to 31.1%
Diluted earnings per share (EPS) increased 20.0% to $1.26
Adjusted diluted EPS(1) increased 12.2% to $1.29
Cash generated by operations increased by $60.7 million to $227.1 million
(1) Adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. The same factors described in this release that impacted these non-GAAP measures also impacted the comparable GAAP measures. Refer to pages 11 through 14 for further discussion and GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations.

"When the current transformation of C.H. Robinson began in early 2024 with the implementation of a new Lean operating model, we recognize that some people had doubts and didn’t understand how this would enable the company to change its trajectory. Now, with six consecutive quarters of consistent outperformance through the disciplined execution of the strategy that we shared at our 2024 Investor Day, there is no doubt in our minds that we are on the right path to deliver sustainable outperformance in all market cycles," said President and Chief Executive Officer, Dave Bozeman. "I’m proud of the Robinson team for embracing our new operating model and the discipline needed to improve our say-do ratio and to generate higher highs and higher lows across market cycles. Our people consistently demonstrate that they are the industry’s best logisticians with the value that they bring to our customers and carriers, and they are excited about the transformation happening at Robinson and the momentum that we have."

"We are not waiting for a market recovery to improve our financial results, and the strategies that our Robinson team is executing are not only working, but they are built to be effective in any market environment," Bozeman added. "We’re still in the early innings of our transformation journey, but we have demonstrated our ability to responsibly grow market share and expand margins at the same time. This has enabled us to approach our mid-cycle operating margin targets despite operating in an elongated trough of the freight cycle."

"We are accelerating our progress, by harnessing and scaling the evolving power of artificial intelligence to drive automation across the full lifecycle of a load. Our industry-leading innovations not only enhance the service and value we deliver to our customers but also improve our operational performance by automating tasks that free up our talented people to focus on more strategic, high-value work. We are pioneering new ways to eliminate tasks, augment our capabilities and supercharge our talented people with industry-leading technology that materially elevates the customer and carrier experience, and our Lean operating model enables us to do this in a disciplined way that delivers the most value to all stakeholders. You can expect the next chapters of this company’s evolution to be just as exciting as the last 18 months."

"In the second quarter, NAST outgrew the market again in both truckload and LTL while expanding gross margins and improving productivity year-over-year and sequentially. In Global Forwarding, we continued to win new business and improve the yield of our portfolio by implementing the revenue management disciplines that we’ve been utilizing in NAST for over a year. We also optimized our Global Forwarding expenses through further increases in productivity. Overall, we delivered a 21% year-over-year increase in our enterprise’s second quarter income from operations, and we will continue to lean into the self-help initiatives that enabled our market share growth and margin expansion," said Bozeman.

Summary of Second Quarter of 2025 Results Compared to the Second Quarter of 2024
Total revenues decreased 7.7% to $4.1 billion, primarily driven by the divestiture of our Europe Surface Transportation business, in addition to lower pricing in our ocean services and lower fuel surcharges in our truckload services.
Gross profits increased 0.4% to $679.6 million. Adjusted gross profits increased 0.8% to $693.2 million, primarily driven by higher adjusted gross profit per transaction in our customs, truckload, and less than truckload ("LTL") services. This was partially offset by the divestiture of our Europe Surface Transportation business and lower volume in our ocean services.
Operating expenses decreased 6.3% to $477.3 million. Personnel expenses decreased 7.2% to $335.3 million, primarily due to cost optimization efforts and productivity improvements, the divestiture of our Europe Surface Transportation business, a non-recurring benefit from certain actions taken within the current quarter, and lower restructuring charges related to workforce reductions. Average employee headcount declined 11.2%. Other selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased 4.1% to $142.0 million, primarily due to restructuring charges in the prior year related to reducing our facilities footprint including early termination or abandonment of office buildings under operating leases.
Income from operations totaled $215.9 million, up 21.2% due to both the increase in adjusted gross profit and the decrease in operating expenses. Adjusted operating margin(1) of 31.1% increased 520 basis points.
Interest and other income/expense, net totaled $22.0 million of expense, consisting primarily of $16.8 million of interest expense, which decreased $6.1 million versus last year due to a lower average debt balance and lower variable interest rates, and a $4.9 million net loss from foreign currency revaluation and realized foreign currency gains and losses.
The effective tax rate in the quarter was 21.4%, compared to 19.4% in the second quarter of 2024. The higher rate in the second quarter of 2025 was driven by the impact of higher pre-tax income and lower benefit from U.S. tax credits and incentives, partially offset by a lower foreign tax rate.
Net income totaled $152.5 million, up 20.8% from a year ago. Diluted EPS of $1.26 increased 20.0%. Adjusted diluted EPS(1) of $1.29 increased 12.2%.
(1) Adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. The same factors described in this release that impacted these non-GAAP measures also impacted the comparable GAAP measures. Refer to pages 11 through 14 for further discussion and GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations.

Adjusted gross profits increased 1.6% to $1.4 billion, primarily driven by higher adjusted gross profit per transaction in our truckload, LTL and customs services, which was partially offset by the divestiture of our Europe Surface Transportation business and lower volume in our truckload and ocean services.
Operating expenses decreased 6.4% to $973.5 million. Personnel expenses decreased 7.6% to $683.9 million, primarily due to cost optimization efforts and productivity improvements, the divestiture of our Europe Surface Transportation business, and prior year restructuring charges related to workforce reductions.

Second quarter Robinson Fresh adjusted gross profits increased 11.3% to $44.4 million due to an increase in integrated supply chain solutions for retail and foodservice customers. Managed Solutions adjusted gross profits increased 0.9%.

Other Income Statement Items
Interest and other income/expense, net totaled $22.0 million of expense, consisting primarily of $16.8 million of interest expense, which decreased $6.1 million versus the second quarter of 2024 due to a lower average debt balance and lower variable interest rates, and a $4.9 million net loss from foreign currency revaluation and realized foreign currency gains and losses.
The second quarter effective tax rate was 21.4%, up from 19.4% in the second quarter of 2024. The higher rate in the second quarter of 2025 was driven by the impact of higher pre-tax income and lower benefit from U.S. tax credits and incentives, partially offset by a lower foreign tax rate. For 2025, we expect our full-year effective tax rate to be 18% to 20%.
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding in the quarter were up 0.9% year-over-year.

Cash Flow Generation and Capital Distribution
Cash generated from operations totaled $227.1 million in the second quarter, compared to $166.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. The $60.7 million increase in cash flow from operations was primarily related to a $26.2 million increase in net income and a $57.7 million decrease in cash used by changes in net operating working capital, due to a $30.9 million sequential decrease in net operating working capital in the second quarter of 2025 compared to a $26.8 million sequential increase in the second quarter of 2024.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation
(unaudited, in thousands)
Our adjusted gross profit is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit excluding amortization of internally developed software utilized to directly serve our customers and contracted carriers. We believe adjusted gross profit is a useful measure of our ability to source, add value, and sell services and products that are provided by third parties, and we consider adjusted gross profit to be a primary performance measurement. Accordingly, the discussion of our results of operations often focuses on the changes in our adjusted gross profit. The reconciliation of gross profit to adjusted gross profit is presented below (in thousands):

Our adjusted operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as operating income divided by adjusted gross profit. Our adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture is a similar non-GAAP financial measure as adjusted operating margin, but also excludes the impact of restructuring, lease impairment, and/or losses from divestiture. We believe adjusted operating margin and adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture are useful measures of our profitability in comparison to our adjusted gross profit, which we consider a primary performance metric as discussed above. The comparisons of operating margin to adjusted operating margin and adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture are presented below:

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation
(unaudited, in thousands)

Our adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share (diluted) are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are calculated excluding the impact of restructuring, lease impairment, and/or losses from divestiture. We believe that these measures provide useful information to investors and include them within our internal reporting to our chief operating decision maker. Accordingly, the discussion of our results of operations includes discussion on the changes in our adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share (diluted). The reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures are presented below (in thousands except per share data):

Thoughts from President & CEO, Dave Bozeman 3 ■ Our Q2 results reflect six consecutive quarters of consistent outperformance through the disciplined execution of the strategic initiatives that we shared at our Investor Day in December — there is no doubt in our minds that we are on the right path to deliver sustainable outperformance in all market cycles. ■ I’m proud of the Robinson team for embracing our new operating model and the discipline needed to improve our say-do ratio and to generate higher highs and higher lows across market cycles. ■ We are not waiting for a market recovery to improve our financial results, and the strategies that our Robinson team is executing are not only working, but they are built to be effective in any market environment. ■ We’re still in the early innings of our transformation journey, but we have demonstrated our ability to responsibly grow market share and expand margins at the same time. This has enabled us to approach our mid-cycle operating margin targets despite operating in an elongated trough of the freight cycle.

21 Our adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross profit margin are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit excluding amortization of internally developed software utilized to directly serve our customers and contracted carriers. Adjusted gross profit margin is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by total revenues. We believe adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross profit margin are useful measures of our ability to source, add value, and sell services and products that are provided by third parties, and we consider adjusted gross profit to be a primary performance measurement. The reconciliation of gross profit to adjusted gross profit and gross profit margin to adjusted gross profit margin are presented below: Three Months Ended June 30 Six Months Ended June 30, $ in thousands 2025 2024 2025 2024 Revenues: Transportation $ 3,746,660 $ 4,121,930 $ 7,468,575 $ 8,204,518 Sourcing 389,883 361,418 714,708 691,141 Total Revenues $ 4,136,543 $ 4,483,348 $ 8,183,283 $ 8,895,659 Costs and expenses: Purchased transportation and related services 3,092,641 3,470,383 6,174,011 6,925,379 Purchased produced sourced for resale 350,671 325,556 642,953 625,142 Direct internally developed software amortization 13,681 10,883 29,347 21,105 Total direct costs $ 3,456,993 $ 3,806,822 $ 6,846,311 $ 7,571,626 Gross profit & Gross profit margin $ 679,550 16.4% $ 676,526 15.1% $ 1,336,972 16.3% $ 1,324,033 14.9% Plus: Direct internally developed software amortization 13,681 10,883 29,347 21,105 Adjusted gross profit/Adjusted gross profit margin $ 693,231 16.8% $ 687,409 15.3% $ 1,366,319 16.7% $ 1,345,138 15.1% Non-GAAP Reconciliations


 
Non-GAAP Reconciliations 22 Our adjusted operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as operating income divided by adjusted gross profit. Our adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture is a similar non-GAAP financial measure to adjusted operating margin, but also excludes the impact of restructuring, lease impairment, and/or losses from divestiture. We believe adjusted operating margin and adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture are useful measures of our profitability in comparison to our adjusted gross profit, which we consider a primary performance metric as discussed above. The comparisons of operating margin to adjusted operating margin and adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture are presented below: Three Months Ended June 30 Six Months Ended June 30, $ in thousands 2025 2024 2025 2024 Total Revenues $ 4,136,543 $ 4,483,348 $ 8,183,283 $ 8,895,659 Income from operations 215,919 178,090 392,772 305,223 Operating margin 5.2% 4.0% 4.8% 3.4% Adjusted gross profit $ 693,231 $ 687,409 $ 1,366,319 $ 1,345,138 Income from operations 215,919 178,090 392,772 305,223 Adjusted operating margin 31.1% 25.9% 28.7% 22.7% Adjusted gross profit $ 693,231 $ 687,409 $ 1,366,319 $ 1,345,138 Adjusted income from operations(1) 220,229 193,279 405,695 333,355 Adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge, and/or loss on divestiture 31.8% 28.1% 29.7% 24.8% 1. In the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025, we incurred expenses of $3.9 million primarily related to workforce reductions and $0.4 million of other charges. In the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025, we incurred expenses of $5.1 million primarily related to workforce reductions and $7.8 million of other charges, which includes a $6.3 million impairment charge on our Kansas City regional center lease resulting from the execution of a sublease agreement on a portion of the building. In the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024, we incurred restructuring expenses of $9.4 million related to workforce reductions and $5.7 million of other charges, primarily related to charges to reduce our facilities footprint. In the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024, we incurred restructuring expenses of $17.4 million related to workforce reductions and $10.7 million of other charges, primarily related to an impairment of internally developed software and charges to reduce our facilities footprint.


 
Non-GAAP Reconciliations 23 Our adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted operating margin - excluding restructuring, lease impairment charge and/or loss on divestiture, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share (diluted) are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are calculated excluding the impact of restructuring, lease impairment, and/or losses from divestiture. We believe that these measures provide useful information to investors and include them within our internal reporting to our chief operating decision maker.
