| Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation |
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as amended. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year.

| Recent Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted |
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance in this ASU expands the disclosure requirements for income taxes by requiring greater disaggregation of information in the income tax rate reconciliation and disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The guidance in this ASU is effective for all public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments only impact disclosures and will not have an impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

| Net Loss Per Share |
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Forward Air Corporation by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share assumes the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of performance share awards using the treasury stock method when the effects of such assumptions are dilutive.
The Company's unvested restricted shares contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and are therefore considered participating securities. As such, the Company computes net loss per share using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines net income (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. However, because the participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in the losses of the Company, no losses were allocated to these securities in the calculation of net loss per share for the periods presented.
