Forward-Looking Statements This presentation includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. These statements may reflect Forward Air Corporation’s (“Forward”) expectations, beliefs, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding, among other things, the potential transaction (the “Proposed Acquisition”) between Forward and Omni Logistics, LLC (“Omni”), the expected timetable for completing the Proposed Acquisition (including the timing for realizing any such synergies and the conversion of revenue synergies to adjusted EBITDA), the benefits and expected cost and revenue synergies of the Proposed Acquisition and future opportunities for the combined company, as well as other statements that are other than historical fact, including, without limitation, statements concerning future financial performance, future debt and financing levels (including the achievement of targeted deleveraging within the expected time frames or at all), investment objectives, implications of litigation and regulatory investigations and other management plans for future operations and performance. Words such as “anticipate(s),” “expect(s)”, “intend(s)”, “plan(s)”, “target(s)”, “project(s)”, “believe(s)”, “will”, “aim”, “would”, “seek(s)”, “estimate(s)” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, projections, estimates, assumptions and beliefs and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could lead to actual results materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Forward can give no assurance that its expectations will be attained. Forward’s actual results, liquidity and financial condition may differ from the anticipated results, liquidity and financial condition indicated in these forward- looking statements. We caution readers that any such statements are based on currently available operational, financial and competitive information, and they should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s opinion only as of the date on which they were made. These forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and there are certain important factors that could cause Forward’s actual results to differ, possibly materially, from expectations or estimates reflected in such forward-looking statements, including, but without limitation: • the parties’ ability to consummate the Proposed Acquisition and to meet expectations regarding the timing and completion thereof; • the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the completion of the Proposed Acquisition, including the receipt of all required regulatory approvals or clearances in a timely manner and on terms acceptable to Forward; • the risk that the parties may be unable to achieve the expected strategic, financial and other benefits of the Proposed Acquisition, including the realization of expected synergies and the achievement of deleveraging targets, within the expected time-frames or at all; • the risk that the committed financing necessary for the consummation of the Proposed Acquisition is unavailable at the closing, and that any replacement financing may not be available on similar terms, or at all; • the risk that the businesses will not be integrated successfully or that integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; • the risk that operating costs, customer loss and business disruption (including, without limitation, difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees, customers, clients or suppliers) may be greater than expected following the Proposed Acquisition; • the risk that, if Forward does not obtain the necessary shareholder approval for the conversion of the perpetual non-voting convertible preferred stock to be issued by Forward in the Proposed Acquisition, Forward will be required to pay an annual dividend on such preferred stock; 2

Forward-Looking Statements (Cont’d) • the risks associated with being a holding company with the only material assets after completion of the Proposed Acquisition being the interest in the combined business and, accordingly, dependency upon distributions from the combined business to pay taxes and other expenses; • the requirement for Forward to pay certain tax benefits that it may claim in the future, and the expected materiality of these amounts; • risks associated with organizational structure, including payment obligations under the tax receivable agreement, which may be significant, and any accelerations or significant increases thereto; • the inability to realize all or a portion of the tax benefits that are currently expected to result from the acquisition of certain corporate owners of Omni, certain pre-existing tax attributes of Omni shareholders and tax attributes that may arise on the distribution of cash to other Omni shareholders in connection with the Proposed Acquisition, as well as the future exchanges of units of Forward’s operating subsidiary and payments made under the tax receivables agreement; • increases in interest rates; • changes in Forward’s credit ratings and outlook; • risks relating to the indebtedness Forward expects to incur in connection with the Proposed Acquisition and the need to generate sufficient cash flows to service and repay such debt; • the ability to generate the significant amount of cash needed to service the indebtedness; • the limitations and restrictions in surviving agreements governing indebtedness; • risks associated with the need to obtain additional financing which may not be available or, if it is available, may result in a reduction in the ownership of current Forward shareholders; • and general economic and market conditions. These and other risks and uncertainties are more fully discussed in the risk factors identified in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of Forward’s most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10- K, and as may be identified in Forward’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. Except to the extent required by law, Forward expressly disclaims any obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in Forward’s expectations with regard thereto or change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any statement is based. Non-GAAP Measures To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we have included Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratio, non-GAAP financial measures, in this presentation. The reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP can be found in the Appendix to this presentation. Because these non-GAAP measures excludes certain items as described herein, they may not be indicative of the results that Forward expects to recognize for future periods. As a result, these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. 3
