The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Dedicated Transportation Solutions revenues is pegged at $417 million, indicating a 17.5% surge from the year-ago reported figure.Revenue growth from new business and increased pricing might have aided the segment.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Supply-Chain Solutions revenues is pegged at $1.07 billion, indicating a 38.4% surge from the year-ago reported figure.Contributions from acquisitions and solid revenue growth in all industry verticals from new business and increased volumes should have aided the segment.

However, rising capital expenditures, primarily due to higher planned investments in the lease fleet might have hurt the bottom line.
