NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
We are one of the largest providers of surface transportation and logistics solutions in North America that, through our wholly owned subsidiaries, provides safe, reliable, and innovative truckload, intermodal, and logistics services to a diverse group of customers throughout the continental U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP and include all of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
We make estimates and assumptions that affect assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash in excess of current operating requirements is invested in short-term, highly liquid investments. We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Receivables and Allowance
Our trade accounts receivable is recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts and revenue adjustments. The allowance is based on an aging analysis using historical experience, as well as any current and forecasted trends or uncertainties related to customer billing and account collectability. The adequacy of our allowance is reviewed at least quarterly, and reserves for receivables not expected to be collected are established. In circumstances where we are aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific reserve is recorded to reduce the net receivable to the amount we reasonably expect to collect. Bad debt expense is included in other general expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
We record our lease receivables net of an allowance for doubtful accounts based on an aging analysis to reserve amounts expected to be uncollectible. The terms of the lease agreements generally give us the ability to take possession of the underlying asset in the event of default. We may incur credit losses in excess of recorded allowances if the full amount of anticipated proceeds from the sale or re-lease of the asset supporting the third-party’s financial obligation, which can be impacted by economic conditions, is not realized.
Inventory
Our inventories consist of tractors and trailing equipment owned by our equipment leasing company to be sold or leased to owner-operators, as well as parts, tires, supplies, and fuel for use in our Company operations. These inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using specific identification or average cost. The following table shows the components of our inventory balances as of the dates shown. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in millions) | | December 31, 2022 | | December 31, 2021 |
Tractors and trailing equipment for sale or lease | | $ | 35.8 | | | $ | 13.3 | |
Replacement parts | | 15.7 | | | 13.2 | |
Tires and other | | 1.5 | | | 0.9 | |
Total | | $ | 53.0 | | | $ | 27.4 | |
Investments in Marketable Securities
Our marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value in current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. While our intent is to hold our securities to maturity, sudden changes in the market or to our liquidity needs may cause us to sell certain securities in advance of their maturity date.
We adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which is codified in ASC 326, as of January 1, 2020. Under this guidance, credit losses are recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a direct write-down to the security, and unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheets, unless we determine that the amortized cost basis is not recoverable. If we determine that the amortized cost basis of the impaired security is not recoverable, we recognize the credit loss by increasing the allowance for those losses. We did not have an allowance for credit losses on our marketable securities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Cost basis is determined using the specific identification method.
When adopting this standard, we elected to continue to present the accrued interest receivable balance associated with our investments in marketable securities separate from the marketable securities line in the consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we elected the practical expedient provided under the guidance to exclude the applicable accrued interest from the amortized cost basis disclosure of our marketable securities. We have also elected not to measure an allowance for credit losses on our accrued interest receivable and to write off accrued interest receivable by reversing interest income when it is not considered collectible.
Fair Value
Fair value is the estimated price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value fall into three broad levels (Levels 1, 2, and 3) as follows:
Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2—Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, for the asset or liability or prices for similar assets and liabilities.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk).
Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives and residual values. Generally, the estimated useful lives are as follows: | | | | | |
| 2022 |
Tractors | 3 - 8 years |
Trailing equipment | 6 - 20 years |
Other transportation equipment | 4 - 5 years |
Buildings and improvements | 5 - 25 years |
Other property | 3 - 10 years |
Salvage values, when applicable, generally range from 5% - 30% or 0% - 25% of the original cost for tractors and trailing equipment, respectively, and reflect any agreements with tractor suppliers for residual or trade-in values for certain new equipment.
Long-lived assets require an impairment review when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We base our evaluation of other long-lived assets on the presence of impairment indicators such as the future economic benefit of the assets, any historical or future profitability measurements, and other external market conditions or factors. The carrying amount of tangible long-lived assets held and used is considered not recoverable if the carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted sum of cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, the impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its fair value.
Gains and losses on the sale or other disposition of equipment are based on the difference between the proceeds received less costs to sell and the net book value of the assets disposed. Gains and losses are recognized at the time of sale or disposition and are classified in operating supplies and expenses—net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, we recognized $85.7 million of net gains, $63.9 million of net gains, and $6.7 million of net losses on the sale of property and equipment, respectively. Net gains for 2022 were primarily related to the sale of the Company’s Canadian facility. Included in losses on the sale of property and equipment for the year ended December 31, 2020 was a net loss of $0.5 million related to the shutdown of our FTFM service offering.
Assets Held for Sale
Assets held for sale consist of transportation equipment and are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Reclassification to assets held for sale occurs when the required criteria, as defined by ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, are satisfied.
Assets held for sale are evaluated for impairment when transferred to held for sale status or when impairment indicators are present. The carrying amount of assets held for sale is not recoverable if the carrying amount exceeds the fair value less estimated costs to sell the asset. An impairment loss is recorded for the excess of the asset’s carrying amount over the fair value less estimated costs to sell. Impairment losses are recorded in operating supplies and expenses—net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. We recorded no significant impairment losses for the years ended December 31, 2022, or 2021, and $4.7 million in losses for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Assets held for sale by segment as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in millions) | | 2022 | | 2021 |
Truckload | | $ | 21.0 | | | $ | 0.5 | |
Intermodal | | 0.8 | | | 0.2 | |
Total | | $ | 21.8 | | | $ | 0.7 | |
Internal Use Software and Cloud Computing Arrangements
We capitalize certain costs incurred to acquire, develop, or modify software to meet the Company’s internal needs. Only costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized once the preliminary project stage is complete and management has committed to funding the project. Internal use software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis primarily over five years, or the expected useful life if different, with amortization expense recorded within depreciation and amortization on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. We recorded $24.5 million, $20.2 million, and $15.4 million of amortization expense related to internal use software during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
Additionally, with the adoption of ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2020, we capitalize certain implementation costs for internal use software incurred in a CCA that is a service contract. CCA implementation costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related hosting agreement, taking into consideration renewal options, if any. The renewal period is included in the amortization period if determined that the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. Amortization expense is recorded within operating supplies and expenses—net on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, similar to the related hosting fees. We recorded $1.3 million and $1.0 million of amortization expense related to CCA implementation costs during the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. There was no amortization expense related to CCA implementation during the year ended December 31, 2020.
Capitalized computer costs are evaluated for impairment on an ongoing basis. If events or changes in circumstances (such as the manner in which the hosting arrangement is expected to be used) indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, the Company will evaluate the asset for impairment. If impairment is identified, it is recorded in operating supplies and expenses—net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
The following table provides information related to our internal use software and CCA implementation costs as of the dates shown.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in millions) | | December 31, 2022 | | December 31, 2021 |
Internal use software | | $ | 341.3 | | | $ | 319.4 | |
Less accumulated amortization | | 249.5 | | | 225.5 | |
Net internal use software | | $ | 91.8 | | | $ | 93.9 | |
| | | | |
CCA implementation costs | | $ | 27.2 | | | $ | 10.3 | |
Less accumulated amortization | | 2.3 | | | 1.0 | |
Net CCA implementation costs (1) | | $ | 24.9 | | | $ | 9.3 | |
(1)On the consolidated balance sheets, the current portion of CCA implementation costs are included within prepaid expenses and other current assets and amounted to $1.3 million and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and the noncurrent portion is included in internal use software and other noncurrent assets and amounted to $23.5 million and $8.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually in October, or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. The carrying amount of a reporting unit’s goodwill is considered not recoverable, and an impairment loss is recorded if the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, as determined based on the combination of income and market approaches. See Note 6, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, for more information on our goodwill.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue during the delivery period based on relative transit time in each reporting period, in accordance with ASC 606, with expenses recognized as incurred. Accordingly, a portion of the total revenue that will be billed to the customer once a load is delivered is recognized in each reporting period based on the percentage of the freight delivery service that has been completed at the end of the reporting period.
When we use third-party carriers, we generally record revenues on the gross basis at amounts charged to our customers because we are the primary obligor, we are a principal in the transaction, we invoice our customers and retain all credit risks, and we maintain discretion over pricing. Additionally, we are responsible for selection of third-party transportation providers to the extent they are used to satisfy customer freight requirements.
We record revenues net of pass-through taxes in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, no customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenues.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date. We record valuation allowances for deferred tax assets to the extent we do not believe these assets are more likely than not to be realized through the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, or tax-planning strategies. We record a liability for unrecognized tax benefits when the benefits of tax positions taken on a tax return are not more likely than not to be sustained upon audit. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are classified as income tax expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Earnings Per Share
We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if holders of unvested restricted and performance share units or options were to exercise or convert their holdings into common stock. Awards that would have an anti-dilutive impact are excluded from the calculation.
Share-based Compensation
We have share-based compensation plans covering certain employees, including officers and directors. We account for share-based compensation using the fair value recognition provisions of current accounting standards for share-based payments. These awards have historically consisted of restricted shares, RSUs, performance-based restricted shares, PSUs, and non-qualified stock options. We recognize compensation expense over the requisite service periods within each award. See Note 12, Share-Based Compensation, for more information about our plans.
Claims Accruals
We are self-insured for loss of and damage to our owned and leased transportation equipment. We purchase insurance coverage for a portion of expenses related to employee injuries, vehicular accidents, and cargo damage. Certain insurance arrangements include a level of self-insurance (deductible) coverage applicable to each claim. We have excess policies to limit our exposure to catastrophic claim costs. The amounts of self-insurance change from time to time based on measurement dates, policy expiration dates, and claim type.
Our claims accrual policy for all self-insured claims is to recognize a liability at the time of the incident based on our analysis of the nature and severity of the claims and analyses provided by third-party claims administrators, as well as legal, economic, and regulatory factors. The ultimate cost of a claim develops over time as additional information regarding the nature, timing, and extent of damages claimed becomes available. Accordingly, we use an actuarial method to develop current claim information to
derive an estimate of our ultimate claim liability. This process involves the use of loss-development factors based on our historical claims experience and includes a contractual premium adjustment factor, if applicable. In doing so, the recorded liability considers future claims growth and provides an allowance for incurred but not reported claims. We do not discount our estimated losses. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had an accrual of $164.9 million and $158.3 million, respectively, for estimated claims net of reinsurance receivables. In addition, we are required to pay certain advanced deposits and monthly premiums. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had an aggregate prepaid insurance asset of $9.2 million and $11.0 million, respectively, which represented prefunded premiums and deposits.
Sale of Business
On November 30, 2022, the Company entered into a management buyout agreement to sell 100% of its China-based logistics operations to certain members of Asia’s management team, ceasing Schneider’s Asia operations. The sale resulted in the recognition of a $5.0 million loss, which was recorded within operating supplies and expenses—net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, and operating results through the date of sale are included within Other. In conjunction with the management buyout agreement, a $4.1 million payment was made and is included within acquisitions and sale of business, net of cash acquired on the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
We adopted ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance, which increases the transparency of government assistance. This standard requires businesses to disclose information about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution model by analogy (for example, International Financial Reporting Standards guidance in International Accounting Standard 20 or guidance on contributions for not-for-profit entities in ASC 958-605), including information about the nature of the transaction, including significant terms and conditions, as well as the amounts and specific financial statement line items affected by the transaction. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
2. ACQUISITIONS
deBoer Transportation, Inc.
We entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated June 7, 2022, to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity of deBoer, a regional, dedicated carrier headquartered in Blenker, WI. The acquisition provided Schneider the opportunity to expand our tractor and trailer fleet primarily within our dedicated Truckload operations, as well as our company driver capacity. During the second half of 2022, the Company successfully transitioned equipment and employees from deBoer to Schneider, deBoer operations ceased, and drivers and equipment were deployed primarily within our Truckload segment.
The aggregate purchase price of the acquisition was approximately $34.6 million inclusive of certain cash and net working capital adjustments, and the assets acquired consisted primarily of rolling stock. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of net assets acquired were determined using Level 3 inputs, and the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets resulted in $7.7 million of goodwill being recorded within the Truckload reportable segment at the time of acquisition. Following the acquisition, $1.6 million of purchase price adjustments were made relating to deferred taxes and certain working capital amounts resulting in an adjusted goodwill balance of $6.1 million as of December 31, 2022.
Acquisition-related costs, which consisted of fees incurred for advisory, legal, and accounting services, were $0.3 million and were included in other general expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the period ended December 31, 2022.
Operating results for deBoer are included in our consolidated results of operations from the acquisition date. Pro forma information for this acquisition is not provided as it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated operating results.
Midwest Logistics Systems, Ltd.
We entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 31, 2021, to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity of MLS, a dedicated trucking company based in Celina, OH, and certain affiliated entities holding assets comprising substantially all of MLS’s business. MLS is a premier dedicated carrier in the central U.S. that we believe complements our growing dedicated operations.
The aggregate purchase price of the acquisition was approximately $268.8 million inclusive of $5.7 million in net working capital and other post-acquisition adjustments received in 2022 and a deferred payment of $3.2 million made in January 2022. Proceeds from the total purchase consideration were used to settle $26.9 million of MLS’s outstanding debt as of the acquisition date.
The acquisition of MLS was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at their fair values as of the acquisition date. These inputs represent Level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy and required significant judgments and estimates at the time of valuation. Fair value estimates of acquired property and equipment were based on an independent appraisal, giving consideration to the highest and best use of the assets. Key assumptions used in the transportation equipment appraisals were based on the market approach, while key assumptions used in the land, buildings and improvements, and other property and equipment appraisals were based on a combination of the income (direct capitalization) and sales comparison approaches, as appropriate.
The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill within the Truckload reportable segment. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and growth opportunities within our dedicated business and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
Acquisition-related costs, which consisted of fees incurred for advisory, legal, and accounting services, were $1.9 million and were included in other general expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the period ended December 31, 2021.
The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation for MLS, including any adjustments during the measurement period.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in millions) | | December 31, 2021 Opening Balance Sheet | | Adjustments | | Adjusted December 31, 2021 Opening Balance Sheet |
Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | — | | | $ | 1.8 | | | $ | 1.8 | |
Trade accounts receivable—net of allowance | | 18.6 | | | (6.7) | | | 11.9 | |
Other receivables | | 0.9 | | | 1.5 | | | 2.4 | |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets | | 1.6 | | | — | | | 1.6 | |
Net property and equipment | | 148.9 | | | (0.8) | | | 148.1 | |
Internal use software and other noncurrent assets | | — | | | 11.7 | | | 11.7 | |
Goodwill | | 122.7 | | | (18.4) | | | 104.3 | |
Total assets acquired | | 292.7 | | | (10.9) | | | 281.8 | |
| | | | | | |
Trade accounts payable | | 1.8 | | | 1.6 | | | 3.4 | |
Accrued salaries, wages, and benefits | | 1.7 | | | 0.9 | | | 2.6 | |
Claims accruals—current | | 7.5 | | | (3.0) | | | 4.5 | |
Other current liabilities | | 7.2 | | | (3.9) | | | 3.3 | |
Deferred income taxes | | — | | | (1.1) | | | (1.1) | |
Other noncurrent liabilities | | — | | | 0.3 | | | 0.3 | |
Total liabilities assumed | | 18.2 | | | (5.2) | | | 13.0 | |
| | | | | | |
Net assets acquired | | $ | 274.5 | | | $ | (5.7) | | | $ | 268.8 | |
The above adjustments made during the measurement period ended December 31, 2022 were primarily related to working capital, property and equipment, leases, claims accruals, deferred taxes, and intangible assets. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets, including customer relationships and trademarks, were based on valuations using income-based approaches and Level 3 inputs. No material statement of comprehensive income effects were identified with these adjustments.
Combined unaudited pro forma operating revenues of the Company and MLS would have been approximately $5,816.0 million and $4,748.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and our earnings for the same periods would not have been materially different.
3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Disaggregated Revenues
The majority of our revenues are related to transportation and have similar characteristics. MLS and deBoer revenues since the acquisition dates are included within Transportation revenues, consistent with the remainder of our Truckload segment. The following table summarizes our revenues by type of service, which are explained in greater detail below. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended December 31, |
Disaggregated Revenues (in millions) | | 2022 | | 2021 | | 2020 |
Transportation | | $ | 6,119.9 | | | $ | 5,166.7 | | | $ | 4,170.0 | |
Logistics Management | | 274.2 | | | 219.0 | | | 149.7 | |
Other | | 210.3 | | | 223.0 | | | 233.1 | |
Total operating revenues | | $ | 6,604.4 | | | $ | 5,608.7 | | | $ | 4,552.8 | |
Transportation
Transportation revenues are generated from our Truckload and Intermodal segments, as well as from our brokerage business, which is included in the Logistics segment.
In the Transportation portfolio, our service obligation to customers is satisfied over time. We do not believe there is a significant impact on the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue or cash flows based on the mode of transportation. The economic factors that impact our transportation revenue are generally consistent across these modes given the relatively short-term nature of each contract. For the majority of our transportation business, the “contract with a customer” is identified as an individual order under a negotiated agreement. Some consideration is variable in that a final transaction price is uncertain and is susceptible to factors outside of the Company’s influence, such as the weather or the accumulation of accessorial charges. Pricing information is supplied by rate schedules that accompany negotiated contracts. Occasionally we provide freight movements to customers in exchange for non-monetary services. The fair value of non-monetary consideration on these freight movements is included in operating revenues on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and consists primarily of transportation equipment. The amount of operating revenues recorded for these services was $16.0 million and $6.3 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively. There was no revenue recorded in 2020 for freight movements in exchange for non-monetary consideration.
Transportation orders are short-term in nature generally having terms of significantly less than one year. They do not include significant financing components. A small portion of revenues in our transportation business relate to fixed payments in our Truckload segment. These payments are due regardless of volumes, and in these arrangements, the master agreement rather than the individual order may be considered the “contract.” Refer to the Remaining Performance Obligations table below for more information on these fixed payments.
Under ASC 606, we recognize revenue over the period transportation services are provided to the customer, including service performed as of the end of the reporting period for loads currently in transit, in order to recognize the value transferred to a customer over the course of the transportation service.
We determine revenue in transit using the input method, under which revenue is recognized based on time lapsed from the departure date to the arrival date. Measurement of revenue in transit requires the application of significant judgment. We calculate the estimated percentage of an order’s transit time that is complete at period end, and we apply that percentage of completion to the order’s estimated revenue.
In certain transportation arrangements, an unrelated party contributes a specified service to our customer. For example, we contract with third-party carriers to perform transportation services on behalf of our customers in our brokerage business, and we use third-party rail carriers in our Intermodal segment. In situations that include the contributions of third parties, we act as principal in the arrangement, and accordingly, we recognize gross revenues from these transactions.
Logistics Management
Logistics Management revenues relate to our SCDM operating segment, which is included in our Logistics segment. Within this portfolio, the key service we provide to customers is management of freight shipping and/or storage.
The “contracts” in our Logistics Management portfolio are negotiated agreements, which contain both fixed and variable components. The variability of revenues is driven by volumes and transactions, which are known as of an invoice date. Refer to the Remaining Performance Obligations table below for additional information. SCDM contracts typically have terms that extend beyond one year and do not include financing components.
Under ASC 606, we have elected to use the right to invoice practical expedient, which reflects the fact that a customer obtains the benefit associated with logistics services as they are provided (output method), and therefore, we recognize revenue under these contracts over time.
In our supply chain management business, we subcontract third parties to perform a portion of the services. We are responsible for ensuring the services are performed and are acceptable to the customer; therefore, we are considered the principal in these arrangements.
Other
Other revenues relate to activities that are out of scope for purposes of ASC 606, including our leasing and captive insurance businesses.
Quantitative Disclosure
The following table provides information related to transactions and expected timing of revenue recognition for performance obligations that are fixed in nature and relate to contracts with terms greater than one year as of the date shown. | | | | | | | | |
Remaining Performance Obligations (in millions) | | December 31, 2022 |
Expected to be recognized within one year | | |
Transportation | | $ | 17.2 | |
Logistics Management | | 10.2 | |
Expected to be recognized after one year | | |
Transportation | | 24.8 | |
Logistics Management | | 8.5 | |
Total | | $ | 60.7 | |
This disclosure does not include revenue related to performance obligations that are part of a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less, nor does it include expected consideration related to performance obligations for which the Company elects to recognize revenue in the amount it has a right to invoice (e.g., usage-based pricing terms).
The following table provides information related to contract balances associated with our contracts with customers as of the dates shown. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Contract Balances (in millions) | | December 31, 2022 | | December 31, 2021 | | December 31, 2020 |
Other current assets—Contract assets | | $ | 27.0 | | | $ | 33.8 | | | $ | 21.5 | |
Other current liabilities—Contract liabilities | | 2.6 | | | 3.2 | | | 0.7 | |
We generally receive payment within 40 days of completion of performance obligations. Contract assets in the table above relate to revenue in transit at the end of the reporting period. Contract liabilities relate to amounts that customers paid in advance of the associated service.
Practical Expedients
We elected to use the following practical expedients under ASC 606: (1) not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when we expect, at contract inception, that the period between our transfer of a promised service to a customer and when the customer pays for that service will be one year or less; (2) to apply ASC 606 to a portfolio of contracts (or performance obligations) with similar characteristics, as we reasonably expect that the effects on the consolidated financial statements of applying this guidance to the portfolio would not differ materially from applying this guidance to the individual contracts (or performance obligations) within that portfolio; and (3) to recognize revenue in the Logistics Management portfolio as the amount of consideration to which we have a right to invoice, that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the service completed to date.
4. FAIR VALUE
The table below sets forth the Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring, monthly basis in accordance with ASC 820. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | Fair Value at |
(in millions) | | Level in Fair Value Hierarchy | | December 31, 2022 | | December 31, 2021 |
Equity investment in TuSimple (1) | | 1 | | $ | 0.6 | | | $ | 12.7 | |
Marketable securities (2) | | 2 | | 45.9 | | | 49.3 | |
(1)Our equity investment in TuSimple is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as shares of TuSimple’s Class A common stock are traded on the NASDAQ. See Note 5, Investments, for additional information.
(2)Marketable securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as they are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active. See Note 5, Investments, for additional information.
The fair value of the Company’s debt was $199.1 million and $276.7 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The carrying value of the Company’s debt was $205.0 million and $265.0 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively. The fair value of our debt was calculated using a fixed rate debt portfolio with similar terms and maturities, which is based on the borrowing rates available to us in the applicable year. This valuation used Level 2 inputs.
The recorded value of cash, trade accounts receivable, lease receivables, and trade accounts payable approximates fair value.
We measure non-financial assets, such as assets held for sale and other long-lived assets, at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and only when we recognize an impairment loss. The table below sets forth the Company’s non-financial assets that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during 2022. During 2021 we did not measure any non-financial assets at fair value.

(1)Our held for sale transportation equipment is evaluated for impairment using market data upon classification as held for sale or as impairment indicators are present. If the carrying value of the assets held for sale exceeds the fair value, an impairment is recorded. All of the assets held for sale at December 31, 2022 were recorded at fair value. Refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, for further details on impairment charges.
As part of the MLS and deBoer acquisitions, certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions, for further details.

Equity Investments with Readily Determinable Fair Values
On January 12, 2021, the Company purchased a $5.0 million non-controlling interest in TuSimple, a global self-driving technology company. Upon completion of its IPO in April 2021, our investment in TuSimple was converted into Class A common shares and is now being accounted for under ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities. In the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized a pre-tax net loss of $12.1 million and a pre-tax net gain of $7.7 million, respectively, on its investment in TuSimple. See Note 4, Fair Value, for additional information on the fair value of our investment in TuSimple.
All of our equity investments are included in other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets with subsequent gains or losses recognized within other expense (income)—net on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
6. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. The following table shows changes to our goodwill balances by segment during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded goodwill in conjunction with the acquisition of deBoer and made measurement period adjustments related to the acquisitions of deBoer and MLS, both of which were recorded within the Truckload segment. Goodwill recorded as a result of the Company’s acquisition of MLS represents its own reporting unit, while goodwill recorded as a result of the deBoer acquisition is included in our VTL/Dedicated Services reporting unit as drivers and assets were deployed within this business, and deBoer operations ceased. Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions, for further details.
At December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had accumulated goodwill impairment charges of $53.2 million, which consisted of $34.6 million and $18.6 million in our Truckload reporting segment and Other, respectively.
Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually using the discounted cash flow, guideline public company, and guideline transaction methods to calculate the fair values of our reporting units. Key inputs used in the discounted cash flow approach include growth rates for sales and operating profit, perpetuity growth assumptions, and discount rates. Key inputs used in the guideline public company and guideline transaction methods include EBITDA valuation multiples of comparable companies and transactions. If interest rates rise or EBITDA valuation multiples of comparable companies and transactions decline, the calculated fair values of our reporting units will decrease, which could impact the results of our goodwill impairment tests.
During the fourth quarter of 2022 and 2021, annual impairment tests were performed on all three of our reporting units with goodwill as of October 31, our assessment date. No impairments resulted as part of the 2022 annual impairment tests. An impairment loss of $10.6 million was recorded for our Asia reporting unit in 2021 as the discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the reporting unit were not sufficient to recover its carrying value. This represented all of the remaining goodwill related to the Asia reporting unit. No impairments resulted for our remaining reporting units as part of the 2021 annual impairment tests.
The identifiable finite lived intangible assets other than goodwill listed below are included in internal use software and other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets and relate to the acquisition of MLS. Our customer relationships and trademarks are amortized over a weighted-average amortization period of ten years. Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions, for further details.

| | |
Total | | $ | 205.0 | |
On November 4, 2022, we entered into a new agreement (the “2022 Credit Facility”) which replaces our previous agreement (the “2018 Credit Facility”). The 2022 Credit Facility provides borrowing capacity of $250.0 million and allows us to request an additional increase in total commitment by up to $150.0 million, for a total potential commitment of $400.0 million through November 2027. The 2022 agreement also provides a sublimit of $100.0 million to be used for the issuance of letters of credit. We had no outstanding borrowings under either of these agreements as of December 31, 2022 or 2021. Standby letters of credit under these agreements amounted to $0.1 million and $3.9 million on December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our real estate leases.
On July 30, 2021, we entered into Amendment No. 3 to our Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “2021 Receivables Purchase Agreement”), which allows us to borrow funds against qualifying trade receivables at rates based on one-month LIBOR up to $150.0 million and provides for the issuance of standby letters of credit through July 2024. We had no outstanding borrowings under this facility at December 31, 2022 or 2021. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, standby letters of credit under this agreement amounted to $77.1 million and $70.3 million and were primarily related to the requirements of certain of our insurance obligations.
The credit agreements contain various financial and other covenants, including required minimum consolidated net worth, consolidated net debt, limitations on indebtedness, transactions with affiliates, shareholder debt, and restricted payments. The credit agreements and senior notes contain change of control provisions pursuant to which a change of control is defined to mean the Schneider family no longer owns more than 50% of the combined voting power of our capital shares. A change of control event causes an immediate termination of unused commitments under the credit agreements and requires repayment of all outstanding borrowings plus accrued interest and fees. The senior notes require us to provide notice to the note holders offering prepayment of the outstanding principal along with interest accrued to the date of prepayment. The prepayment date is required to be within 20 to 60 days from the date of notice. At December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
8. LEASES
As Lessee
We lease real estate and equipment under operating and finance leases. Our real estate operating leases include operating centers, distribution warehouses, offices, and drop yards. Our non-real estate operating leases and finance leases include transportation, office, yard, and warehouse equipment, in addition to truck washes. The majority of our leases include an option to extend the lease, and a small number include an option to terminate the lease early, which may include a termination payment. If we are reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, the extension period is included as part of the right-of-use asset and lease liability.
For our real estate leases, we have elected to apply the recognition requirement to leases of twelve months or less; therefore, a lease right-of-use asset and liability will be recognized for all of these leases. For our equipment leases, we have elected to not apply the recognition requirements to leases of twelve months or less. These leases will be expensed on a straight-line basis, and no operating lease right-of-use asset or liability will be recorded.
We have also elected to not separate the different components within the contract for our leases; therefore, all fixed costs associated with the lease are included in the right-of-use asset and lease liability. This often relates to the requirement for us to pay a proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, and other operating costs in addition to a base or fixed rent. Some of our leases have variable payment amounts, and the variable portions of those payments are excluded from the right-of-use asset and lease liability.
At the inception of our contracts, we determine if the contract is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. None of our leases contain restrictions or covenants that restrict us from incurring other financial obligations.
Right-of-use lease assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the term. Our incremental borrowing rates are used as the discount rates for leases and are determined based on U.S. Treasury rates plus an applicable margin. Schneider uses multiple discount rates based on lease terms.
The following table presents our net lease costs for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Operating lease right-of-use assets, current operating lease liabilities, and noncurrent operating lease liabilities are included in internal use software and other noncurrent assets, other current liabilities, and other noncurrent liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease right-of-use assets were $63.5 million and $68.6 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We recorded a $0.1 million impairment loss on our operating lease right-of-use assets for the year ended December 31, 2022, no impairment losses for 2021, and $0.8 million in losses for 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2020, $0.3 million related to the shutdown of our FTFM service offering.

Long-term lease obligations | | $ | 41.5 | | | $ | 6.8 | |
For certain of our real estate leases, there are options contained within the lease agreement to extend beyond the initial lease term. The Company recognizes options as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when deemed reasonably certain to be exercised. Future operating lease payments at December 31, 2022 include $1.0 million related to options to extend lease terms that we are reasonably certain to exercise.
As of December 31, 2022, we had several leases that were signed but had not yet commenced totaling $24.1 million over their lease terms. These leases will commence in 2023 and have lease terms of three to seven years.
The consolidated balance sheets include right-of-use assets acquired under finance leases as components of property and equipment as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Real and other property under finance leases are being amortized to a zero net book value over the initial lease term. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

As Lessor
We finance various types of transportation-related equipment for independent third parties under lease contracts which are generally for one to three years and accounted for as sales-type leases with fully guaranteed residual values. At the inception of the contracts, we determine if the contract is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Our leases contain an option for the lessee to return, extend, or purchase the equipment at the end of the lease term for the guaranteed contract residual amount. This contract residual amount is estimated to approximate the fair value of the equipment. Lease payments primarily include base rentals and guaranteed residual values.
In addition, we also collect one-time administrative fees and heavy vehicle use tax on our leases. We have elected to not separate the different components within the contract as the administrative fees were not material for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020. We have also elected to exclude all taxes assessed by a governmental authority from the consideration (e.g., heavy vehicle use tax). All of our leases require fixed payments, therefore we have no variable payment provisions.
As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, investments in lease receivables were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Current lease receivables—net of allowance | | (111.2) | |
Long-term lease receivable | | $ | 163.1 | |
Prior to entering a lease contract, we assess the credit quality of the potential lessee using credit checks and other relevant factors, ensuring that the inherent credit risk is consistent with our existing lease portfolio. Given our leases have fully guaranteed residual values and we can take possession of the transportation-related equipment in the event of default, we do not categorize net investment in leases by different credit quality indicators upon origination. We monitor our lease portfolio weekly by tracking amounts past due, days past due, and outstanding maintenance account balances, including performing
subsequent credit checks as needed. Our net investment in leases with any portion past due as of December 31, 2022 was $64.6 million, which includes both current and future lease payments.
Lease payments on our lease receivables are generally due on a weekly basis and are classified as past due when the weekly payment is not received by its due date. As of December 31, 2022, our lease payments past due were $4.1 million.
Leases are generally placed on nonaccrual status (nonaccrual of interest and other fees) when a payment becomes 90 days past due or upon notification of bankruptcy, death, or other instances management concludes collectability is not reasonably assured. The accrual of interest and other fees resumes when all payments are less than 60 days past due.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits
Our unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2022 would reduce the provision for income taxes if subsequently recognized. Potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties for such unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 were $3.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively. We expect no significant increases or decreases for unrecognized tax benefits during the twelve months immediately following the December 31, 2022 reporting date.
As of December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, a reconciliation of the beginning and ending unrecognized tax benefits, which is recorded as other noncurrent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, is as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Tax Examinations
We file a U.S. federal income tax return, as well as income tax returns in a majority of state tax jurisdictions. We also file returns in foreign jurisdictions. The years 2019, 2020, and 2021 are open for examination by the IRS, and various years are open for examination by state and foreign tax authorities. In October 2022, the statute for 2018 expired. State and foreign jurisdictional statutes of limitations generally range from three to four years.
Carryforwards
As of December 31, 2022, we had $148.5 million of state net operating loss carryforwards which are subject to expiration from 2023 to 2043, and $51.5 million in capital loss carryforwards which are subject to expiration from 2023 to 2027. The deferred tax assets related to carryforwards at December 31, 2022 were $9.4 million for state net operating loss carryforwards and $10.8 million for the capital loss carryforwards. Carryforwards are reviewed for recoverability based on historical taxable income, the expected reversals of existing temporary differences, tax-planning strategies, and projections of future taxable income. At December 31, 2022, we carried a total valuation allowance of $12.8 million, which represented $10.7 million against capital loss carryforwards and $2.1 million against state deferred tax assets.

Capital Stock and Rights
Our common equity consists of 750.0 million authorized shares of Class B common stock, entitled to one vote per share, and 250.0 million authorized shares of Class A common stock, entitled to 10 votes per share. Our Class B common stock has traded on the NYSE under the symbol “SNDR” since our IPO in April 2017. Our Class A common stock is held by the Voting Trust for the benefit of members of the Schneider family. Each share of Class A common stock is convertible into one share of Class B common stock. Our Class B common stock is not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock. There is no public trading market for our Class A common stock.
Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that holders of our Class A and Class B common stock will be treated equally and ratably on a per share basis with respect to dividends, unless disparate treatment is approved in advance by the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our Class A and Class B common stock, each voting as a separate group.
In the event of a dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the company, the holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets and funds remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding, unless disparate treatment is approved in advance by the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our Class A and Class B common stock, each voting as a separate group.
Additionally, a total of 50.0 million shares of preferred stock is authorized, none of which is currently outstanding. The Company has no present plans to issue any preferred stock.
Dividends Declared
During 2022, 2021, and 2020, the Company declared cash dividends totaling $0.32, $0.28, and $2.26 per share, respectively. Included in the 2020 amount was a special cash dividend of $2.00 per share, totaling $354.7 million.
Subsequent Event - Dividends Declared and Stock Repurchase Program
In January 2023, our Board declared a quarterly cash dividend for the first fiscal quarter of 2023 in the amount of $0.09 per share to holders of our Class A and Class B common stock. The dividend is payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 10, 2023 and is expected to be paid on April 10, 2023.
In January 2023, our Board also announced and approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of its Class A and/or Class B common stock. The program does not obligate the Company to repurchase a minimum number of shares and is intended to help offset the dilutive effect of equity grants to employees over time. Under this program, the Company may repurchase shares in privately negotiated and/or open market transactions.
11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
We sponsor defined contribution plans for certain eligible employees. Under these plans, annual contribution levels, as defined in the plan agreements, are based upon years of service. Expense under these plans totaled $12.1 million, $11.3 million, and $10.7 million in 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively, and is classified in salaries, wages, and benefits in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
We also have a savings plan, organized pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, to provide employees with additional income upon retirement. Under the terms of the plan, substantially all employees may contribute a percentage of their annual compensation, as defined, to the plan. We make contributions to the plan, up to a maximum amount per employee, based on a percentage of employee contributions. Our net expense under this plan was $14.2 million, $12.9 million, and $11.3 million in 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
12. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
We grant various equity-based awards relating to Class B common stock to employees under our 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“the Plan”). These awards have historically consisted of restricted shares, RSUs, performance-based restricted shares (“performance shares”), PSUs, and non-qualified stock options. Performance shares and PSUs granted prior to 2021 are earned based on attainment of threshold performance of earnings and return on capital targets. Beginning with grants in 2021, in addition to achievement of earnings and return on capital targets, a multiplier is applied to performance share and PSU achievement based on rTSR against peers over the performance period.
We account for our restricted shares, RSUs, performance shares, PSUs, and non-qualified stock options granted as equity awards in accordance with the applicable accounting standards for these types of share-based payments. These standards require that the cost of the awards be recognized in our consolidated financial statements based on the grant date fair value of those awards. This cost is recognized over the period for which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, subject to the attainment of performance metrics established for performance shares and PSUs. Share-based compensation expense is recorded in salaries, wages, and benefits in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income, along with other compensation expenses to employees.
The following table summarizes the components of our employee share-based compensation expense. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended December 31, |
(in millions) | | 2022 | | 2021 | | 2020 |
Restricted shares and RSUs | | $ | 5.7 | | | $ | 5.8 | | | $ | 4.5 | |
Performance shares and PSUs | | 8.7 | | | 6.1 | | | 1.9 | |
Non-qualified stock options | | 1.4 | | | 1.4 | | | 0.9 | |
Share-based compensation expense | | $ | 15.8 | | | $ | 13.3 | | | $ | 7.3 | |
Related tax benefit | | $ | 3.8 | | | $ | 3.3 | | | $ | 1.8 | |
As of December 31, 2022, we had $21.4 million of pre-tax unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding share-based compensation awards expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.
Restricted Shares and RSUs
Under the Plan, the majority of the restricted shares and RSUs granted vest ratably over a period of four years beginning approximately one year after the date of grant and are subject to continued employment through the vesting date or retirement eligibility. Dividend equivalents, equal to dividends paid on our common shares during the vesting period, are tracked and accumulated for each restricted share and RSU. The dividend equivalents are forfeitable and are distributed to participants in cash consistent with the date the awards vest.

(1)No restricted shares were granted during 2022.
The grant date fair value of restricted shares and RSUs is determined using the closing share price of the Company on the date of grant.
Performance Shares and PSUs
Performance shares and PSUs include a performance period of three years with vesting based on attainment of threshold performance of earnings and return on capital targets. These awards cliff-vest after a performance period of three years, subject to continued employment through the vesting date or retirement eligibility, with payout ranging from 0% - 200% of the target number of shares for both PSUs and performance shares. The 2021 and 2022 awards include an additional rTSR component that allows for payout ranging from 0% - 250% of the target number of shares. Dividend equivalents equal to dividends paid on our common shares during the vesting period are tracked and accumulated for each award. The dividend equivalents are forfeitable consistent with the date the awards vest and are distributed to participants in cash at the same time as the underlying shares.

(1)No performance shares were granted during 2022.
We estimated the grant date fair value of performance shares and PSUs containing a rTSR component using a Monte Carlo simulation which requires assumptions for expected term, volatility, dividend yield, and risk-free interest rate. We used the historical volatility of peers to derive the expected volatility of the stock. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant taking into consideration the expected term of the awards. No expected dividend yield was used as the award agreement assumes dividends distributed during the performance period are reinvested.
Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation for awards granted in 2022 and 2021 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Expected volatility | | 45.3 | % | | 45.8 | % | | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
Risk-free interest rate | | 1.8 | | | 0.2 | | | | | |
Non-qualified Stock Options
The options granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant and vest ratably over a period of four years, with the first 25% of the grant becoming exercisable approximately one year after the date of grant. The options expire ten years from the date of grant.

We estimated the grant date fair value of option awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model which uses assumptions over the expected term of the options. We used volatility analysis of comparable companies to determine the expected volatility of the stock and market data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted was based on the average of the contractual term and the weighted average of the vesting term, and it represents the average period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
Assumptions used in calculating the Black-Scholes value of options granted during 2022, 2021, and 2020 were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | |
| | 2022 | | 2021 | | 2020 |

Expected term | | 6.25 years | | 6.25 years | | 6.25 years |
Expected volatility | | 30.0 | % | | 30.0 | % | | 31.0 | % |
Expected dividend yield | | 1.2 | | | 1.2 | | | 1.2 | |
Risk-free interest rate | | 2.1 | | | 0.7 | | | 1.6 | |
Director Share Awards and Deferred Stock Units
Equity awards are granted to each director annually on the date of our annual shareholder meeting and accounted for as equity based in accordance with applicable accounting standards for these types of share-based payments. Expense related to our director equity based awards was $1.4 million in 2022, $1.3 million in 2021, and $1.3 million in 2020.
We also grant equity retainer awards, or shares in lieu of cash, on a quarterly basis to our non-employee directors. These awards consist of fully vested shares of our Class B common stock or DSUs. We account for the quarterly director share awards and DSUs as liability based in accordance with the applicable accounting standards for these types of share-based payments and remeasure the DSUs at the end of each reporting period through settlement. Expense related to our director liability based awards was $0.9 million in 2022, $1.2 million in 2021, and $0.9 million in 2020.
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of conducting our business, we become involved in certain legal matters and investigations including liability claims, taxes other than income taxes, contract disputes, employment, and other litigation matters. We accrue for anticipated costs to resolve matters that are probable and estimable. We believe the outcomes of these matters will not have a material impact on our business or our consolidated financial statements.
We record liabilities for claims against the Company based on our best estimate of expected losses. The primary claims arising for the Company through its trucking, intermodal, and logistics operations consist of accident-related claims for personal injury, collision, and comprehensive compensation, in addition to workers’ compensation, property damage, cargo, and wage and benefit claims. We maintain excess liability insurance with licensed insurance carriers for liability in excess of amounts we self-insure, which serves to largely offset the Company’s liability associated with these claims, with the exception of wage and benefit claims for which we self-insure. We review our accruals periodically to ensure that the aggregate amounts of our accruals are appropriate at any period after consideration of available insurance coverage. Although we expect that our claims accruals will continue to vary based on future developments, assuming that we are able to continue to obtain and maintain excess liability insurance coverage for such claims, we do not anticipate that such accruals will, in any period, materially impact our operating results.
At December 31, 2022, our firm commitments to purchase transportation equipment totaled $448.0 million.
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a $5.2 million charge as a result of an adverse audit assessment by a state jurisdiction over the applicability of sales tax for prior periods on rolling stock equipment used within that state. The charge is included within operating supplies and expenses—net on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company filed a request for appeal of the audit assessment with the state jurisdiction.
A representative of the former owners of WSL filed a lawsuit alleging that we did not fulfill certain obligations under the purchase and sale agreement and claiming that the former owners of WSL were entitled to damages including an additional payment of $40.0 million under an earn-out arrangement. On April 25, 2022, the Delaware Superior Court entered judgment in favor of the former owners of WSL, awarding $40.0 million in compensatory damages, plus prejudgment interest and the former owners’ attorneys’ fees. The Company settled with the former owners of WSL for a total of $57.0 million, which is included within other general expenses on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2022.
14. SEGMENT REPORTING
We have three reportable segments – Truckload, Intermodal, and Logistics – which are based primarily on the services each segment provides.
As of December 31, 2020, our operating segments within the Truckload reportable segment were VTL and Bulk. Beginning in 2022, the operating results of MLS, a standalone operating segment, were aggregated into the Truckload reportable segment, resulting in a total of three operating segments. The operating results of deBoer are also included within the Truckload reportable segment from the date of acquisition through when their operations ceased in July and their assets were deployed throughout the business. The three operating segments are aggregated because they have similar economic characteristics with our other Truckload operating segments and meet the other aggregation criteria described in ASC 280. VTL delivers truckload quantities over irregular routes using dry van trailers. Bulk transports key inputs to manufacturing processes, such as specialty chemicals, using specialty trailers. MLS provides dedicated truckload services focusing primarily on freight with consistent routes.
The Intermodal reportable segment provides rail intermodal and drayage services to our customers. Company-owned containers, chassis, and dray tractors are used to provide these transportation services.
As of December 31, 2020, our operating segments within the Logistics reportable segment were Brokerage, Supply Chain Management, and Import/Export Services. During 2021, the Company combined the Supply Chain Management and Import/Export Services operating segments into one operating segment. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there are only two remaining operating segments, Brokerage and SCDM, that are aggregated because they have similar economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria described in the accounting guidance for segment reporting. In the Logistics segment, we provide additional sources of truck capacity, manage transportation-systems analysis requirements for individual customers, and provide transloading and warehousing services.
We generate other revenues from our leasing and captive insurance businesses which are operated by wholly owned subsidiaries. Through November of 2022 and prior to executing a management buyout agreement to sell that business, the Company had operations in Asia that met the definition of an operating segment. None of these operations meet the quantitative reporting thresholds, and a result, are grouped in “Other” in the tables below. Also included in “Other” are revenues and expenses that are incidental to our operations and not attributable to any of the reportable segments.
The CODM reviews revenues for each segment without the inclusion of fuel surcharge revenue. For segment purposes, any fuel surcharge revenues earned are recorded as a reduction of the segment’s fuel expenses. Income from operations at the segment level reflects the measure presented to the CODM for each segment.
Separate balance sheets are not prepared by segment, and as a result, assets are not separately identifiable by segment. All transactions between reportable segments are eliminated in consolidation.
Substantially all of our revenues and assets were generated or located within the U.S.
