In February 2021, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Proficient Transport Incorporated and Proficient Trucking, Inc. (together “Proficient Transport) for $16,339 and a potential earn-out of up to $2,000.

The purchase agreement for Proficient Transport included an earn-out up to $2,000 based on the achievement of certain revenue milestones over a one-year period, beginning March 1, 2021. The estimated fair value of the earn-out liability on the date of acquisition was $829. The fair value was based on the estimated one-year performance of the acquired customer revenue and was calculated using the option pricing method.

The fair value of the earn-out liability was adjusted at each reporting period based on changes in the expected cash flows and related assumptions used in the option pricing method. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the fair value of the earn-out changed by zero and ($294) respectively, and the change in fair value was recorded in “Other operating expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the fair value of the earn-out changed by zero and ($333) respectively, and the change in fair value was recorded in “Other operating expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The one-year period ended in the first quarter of 2022 and the Company paid $91 in the second quarter of 2022 based on the terms of the purchase agreement. As of December 31, 2021, the fair value of the earn-out liability was $385, which was reflected in “Other current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In November 2021, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of BarOle Trucking, Inc. (“BarOle”) for $35,436. BarOle is an intermodal drayage company headquartered in Roseville, Minnesota. The acquisition of BarOle provides additional capacity and resources to meet customer demands in the intermodal market, and extends the service footprint to the Minneapolis-Saint Paul, Minnesota area. In addition, BarOle has a larger terminal location, which allows for further expansion in the future. The acquisition was financed by cash flows from operations. The results of BarOle have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and from the date of acquisition. The associated goodwill has been included in the Company’s Intermodal reportable segment.

In May 2022, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Edgmon Trucking, LLC (“Edgmon”) for $40,433 and a potential earn-out of up to $5,000, based on the achievement of certain profit contribution milestones over a nineteen month period, beginning May 30, 2022. Edgmon, headquartered in Kent, Washington, operates a terminal in Kent and a yard in Seattle, servicing both the Port of Seattle and the Port of Tacoma. The acquisition of Edgmon marks the Company’s first Intermodal location on the West Coast, a key area of expansion in the Intermodal strategic growth plan. The acquisition was financed by cash flows from operations. The results of Edgmon have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and from the date of acquisition.

The preliminary purchase price for BarOle and Edgmon has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the Company’s best estimates and assumptions using the information available as of the acquisition date through the date of this filing. The provisional measurements of identifiable assets and liabilities, and the resulting goodwill related to these acquisitions, are subject to adjustments in subsequent periods as the Company finalizes its purchase price allocations, including the third-party valuations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments to the provisional amounts initially recorded for acquired property and equipment and acquired customer relationships and non-compete agreements related to the BarOle acquisition. The measurement period adjustments resulted in a $1,113 increase to acquired property and equipment and a combined $5,854 decrease to acquired customer relationships and non-compete agreements, with a corresponding net increase to goodwill. The Company expects to finalize the valuations as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the respective acquisition dates.
