FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

EXPEDITORS REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2020 EPS OF $1.09

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON - August 4, 2020, Expeditors International of Washington, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXPD) today announced second quarter 2020 financial results including the following highlights compared to the same quarter of 2019:

 

Diluted Net Earnings Attributable to Shareholders per share (EPS1) increased 24% to $1.09

 

Net Earnings Attributable to Shareholders increased 20% to $184 million

 

Operating Income increased 29% to $248 million

 

Revenues increased 27% to $2.6 billion

 

Airfreight tonnage volume decreased 10% and ocean container volume decreased 14%

 

“Like so many companies, the COVID-19-related impacts to our business have been significant and widespread, as the retail, auto, aviation, energy and other sectors continued to be severely disrupted by shutdowns and supply chain dislocations,” said Jeffrey S. Musser, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While volumes for all of our products were down, as we would have expected during such unprecedented conditions, our airfreight revenue was much greater than anticipated. The air market has been particularly unsettled, with the cancellation of so many passenger flights limiting access to passenger belly space and requiring the increased use of charters to meet customer needs. While air capacity has been tight, demand for shipping technology-related equipment, medical equipment and supplies and other priority goods has been intense, creating a supply and demand imbalance and a spike in buy and sell rates. Our employees’ ability to perform at an extremely high level during such turmoil attests to our strong relationships with our customers and carriers, as we were able to access capacity and execute well under such trying conditions. Airfreight buy and sell rates, which peaked in April and May and started to decline in June, remain highly volatile and continue to be unpredictable.

 

“Buy and sell rates were much less volatile across our other products, even as volumes were down due to COVID-19. Despite a decrease in ocean volumes throughout the marketplace, capacity remains tight as carriers have continued to take steps to manage their capacity and costs.

 

“Perhaps needless to say, these times have been very challenging for all of us and I appreciate how well our team has performed under such conditions. All of our offices around the world remain open and continue to serve our customers at the highest level, proving that our employees remain our most valuable assets. Our business is service-based and we believe that employee retention remains critical to our long-term success. To that end and true to our company culture, we did not lay off any employees, although headcount was down slightly due to normal employee attrition. We also increased paid sick leave to support those employees unfortunate to have either contracted COVID-19 or to have shown symptoms of the virus.

 

“We remain extremely appreciative to all of our dedicated employees, including those vital members who report to work each day to facilitate the essential movement of cargo around the world. We are also very thankful to the majority of our employees who have not yet been able to return to the in-person office environment and recognize the extra effort required to work under such conditions. To successfully manage our way through this pandemic, we relied on the strength of our highly connected information systems and have implemented our business continuity plans around the world in support of all of our employees to safeguard their health and safety.”

 

Bradley S. Powell, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, “Compared to a year ago, the effects of COVID-19 led to lower volumes for all products. Air tonnage out of North Asia, however, increased 14%, driven by goods needed to support remote work and to combat COVID-19. We are unable to remember a time when the operating environment has been so uncertain. Given that unpredictability, we will keep costs in check and focus on increasing operational efficiencies and gaining profitable market share. We will also use our strong financial position to continue to make investments in our strategic initiatives. Not knowing how or when the global economy will recover, we remain a strong, healthy, and unified organization that has demonstrated resiliency under the most trying conditions and believe we are well-prepared for the post-COVID economy, no matter what that looks like.”

1Beginning in the second quarter of 2019, the Company revised its process to record the transfer, between its geographic operating segments, of revenues and the directly related cost of transportation and other expenses for freight service transactions between Company origin and destination locations. This change better aligns revenue reporting with the location where the services are performed, as well as the transactional reporting being developed as part of the Company’s new accounting systems and processes. The change in presentation had no impact on consolidated or segment operating income. The impact of these changes on reported segment revenues was immaterial and in the six months ended June 30, 2019, segment revenues have not been revised.

2Directly related cost of transportation and other expenses totals Operating Expenses from Airfreight services, Ocean freight and ocean services and Customs brokerage and other services as shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

3Salaries and other operating expenses totals Salaries and related, Rent and occupancy, Depreciation and amortization, Selling and promotion and Other as shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

The Company’s consolidated financial results in the first and second quarter 2020 were significantly impacted by the effects of the global pandemic and are expected to be further impacted in the remainder of 2020. The impact is affecting the Company’s geographical segments unevenly.

In the second quarter of 2020, North Asia experienced significant increases in airfreight services revenues and related expenses as a result of demand for time-sensitive delivery of technology equipment and medical equipment and supplies from China, which combined with reductions in airfreight supply resulted in significantly higher rates. In the second quarter 2020 and 2019, the People's Republic of China, including Hong Kong, represented 37% and 26%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenues and 38% and 28%, respectively, of the Company’s total operating income.

This is in contrast with slower activity in North Asia in the first quarter of 2020 as the global pandemic resulted in temporary closures and limited operations from the Company’s China offices and shipments that were rerouted or delayed by customers and service providers taking their own precautionary measures. In the first half of 2020 and 2019, the People's Republic of China, including Hong Kong, represented 31% and 26%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenues and 33% and 28%, respectively, of the Company’s total operating income.
