Usa Truck Inc's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers
The trucking industry includes both private fleets and for-hire carriers.
Private fleets consist of trucks owned and operated by shippers that move their
own goods. For-hire carriers include both truckload and less-than-truckload
operations. The for-hire segment is highly competitive and includes thousands
of carriers, none of which dominates the market. This segment is characterized
by many small carriers having revenues of less than $1 million per year and
as few as one truck and relatively few carriers with revenues exceeding $100
million per year.
USA Truck competes primarily with other truckload carriers, private fleets and,
to a lesser extent, railroads and less-than-truckload carriers. A number of
truckload carriers have greater financial resources, own more revenue equipment
and carry a larger volume of freight than USA Truck. The principal competitive
factors in the truckload segment of the industry are service and price, with
rate discounting becoming particularly important during economic downturns.
USA Truck’s focus is to differentiate itself primarily on the basis of
service rather than rates. Although an increase in the size of the market would
benefit all truckload carriers, management believes that successful carriers
are likely to grow by offering additional services to their customers based
on customer needs and acquiring a greater market share.
