KNIGHT-SWIFT TRANSPORTATION HOLDINGS INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 — Introduction and Basis of Presentation
Certain acronyms and terms used throughout this Quarterly Report are specific to the Company, commonly used in the trucking industry, or are otherwise frequently used throughout this document. Definitions for these acronyms and terms are provided in the "Glossary of Terms," available in the front of this document.
Description of Business
Knight-Swift is a transportation solutions provider, headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company operated an average of 17,965 tractors (comprised of 16,159 company tractors and 1,806 independent contractor tractors) and 71,310 trailers within the Truckload segment and leasing activities within the non-reportable segments. The LTL segment operated an average of 3,091 tractors and 8,302 trailers. Additionally, the Intermodal segment operated an average of 584 tractors and 11,027 intermodal containers. As of March 31, 2022, the Company's four reportable segments were Truckload, Logistics, LTL, and Intermodal.
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in this Quarterly Report include the accounts of Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in Knight-Swift's 2021 Annual Report. In management's opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP and include all adjustments necessary (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) for the fair statement of the periods presented.
With respect to transactional/durational data, references to years pertain to calendar years. Similarly, references to quarters pertain to calendar quarters.
2021 Acquisitions
The Company recently acquired the following entities:
•100.0% of MME on December 6, 2021. The results are included within the LTL segment.
•100.0% of ACT on July 5, 2021. The results are included within the LTL segment.
•100.0% of UTXL on June 1, 2021. The results are included within the Logistics segment.
•79.44% of Eleos on February 1, 2021. The results are included within the non-reportable segments. The noncontrolling interest is presented as a separate component of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note regarding comparability: In accordance with the accounting treatment applicable to the transactions, the Company's consolidated results, as reported, do not include the operating results of its ownership interest in the acquired entities prior to the respective acquisition dates. Accordingly, comparisons between the Company's current and prior period results may not be meaningful.
Additional information regarding the Company's recent acquisitions is included in Note 3.
Seasonality
In the truckload transportation industry, results of operations generally follow a seasonal pattern. Freight volumes in the first quarter are typically lower due to less consumer demand, customers reducing shipments following the holiday season, and inclement weather, while operating expenses generally increase. Tractor productivity of the Company's Truckload fleet, third-party carriers, and independent contractors decreases during the winter months due to decreased fuel efficiency, increased cold weather-related equipment maintenance and repairs, and increased insurance claims and costs attributed to higher accident frequency from harsh weather. These factors typically lead to lower operating profitability, as compared to other parts of the year. Additionally, beginning in the latter half of the
10

KNIGHT-SWIFT TRANSPORTATION HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED
third quarter and continuing into the fourth quarter, the Company typically experiences surges pertaining to holiday shopping trends toward delivery of gifts purchased over the Internet, as well as the length of the holiday season (consumer shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas). However, as the Company continues to diversify its business through expansion into the LTL industry, warehousing, and other activities, seasonal volatility is becoming more tempered. Additionally, macroeconomic trends and cyclical changes in the trucking industry, including imbalances in supply and demand, can override the seasonality faced in the industry.

Note 3 — Acquisitions
First quarter 2022 developments related to the Company's recent acquisitions are discussed below.
MME
On December 6, 2021, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired 100.0% of Bismarck, North Dakota-based MME. MME provides LTL, full truckload, and specialized and other logistics transportation services to a diverse customer base in its service territory in the upper Midwestern and great Northwestern regions of the US.
During the measurement period, the net working capital adjustment increased by $1.3 million based on the actual versus estimated net working capital adjustment as of the transaction date. This adjustment resulted in increasing the total purchase price consideration to $165.7 million. The Company reduced the deferred tax liabilities on MME's opening balance sheet by $2.2 million based on valuation of the Company's intangible assets. These measurement period adjustments resulted a $3.5 million increase in goodwill related to the MME acquisition.
ACT
On July 5, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of Dothan, Alabama-based ACT. ACT is a leading LTL carrier that also offers dedicated contract carriage and ancillary services.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company's condensed consolidated operating results included ACT's total revenue of $217.7 million and net income of $16.1 million. ACT's net income during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 included $3.5 million related to the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the ACT Acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for comparative purposes only and includes certain adjustments such as recognition of assets acquired at estimated fair values and related depreciation and amortization, elimination of transaction costs incurred by Knight-Swift and ACT during the periods presented that were directly related to the ACT Acquisition, and related income tax effects of these items.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to represent the actual results of operations that Knight-Swift and ACT would have achieved had the companies been combined during the periods presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and is not intended to project the future results of operations that the combined company may achieve after the identified transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any cost savings that may be realized as a result of the ACT Acquisition and also does not reflect any restructuring or integration-related costs to achieve those potential cost savings.
UTXL
On June 1, 2021, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired 100.0% of the equity interests of UTXL, a premier third-party logistics company which specializes in over-the-road full truckload and multi-stop loads.
As of March 31, 2022, contingent consideration associated with the transaction was $2.5 million included in "Accrued liabilities" and $2.5 million included in "Other long-term liabilities" in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets, depending on the expected payment dates.
Eleos
On February 1, 2021, pursuant to a membership interest purchase agreement ("MIPA"), the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired 79.44% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Eleos Technologies, LLC ("Eleos"), a Greenville, South Carolina-based software provider, specializing in mobile driving platforms, which complement the Company's suite of services. The purchase price was allocated based on estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation was open for adjustments through the end of the measurement period, which closed one year from the February 1, 2021 acquisition date.

KNIGHT-SWIFT TRANSPORTATION HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED
Purchase Price Allocations
Unless otherwise stated, the purchase price allocations for the above acquisitions are preliminary and have been allocated based on estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, and among other things may be pending the completion of the valuation of acquired tangible assets, an independent valuation of certain acquired intangible assets, assessment of lease agreements, assessment of certain liabilities, the calculation of deferred taxes based upon the underlying tax basis of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and assessment of other tax related items as applicable. As the Company obtains more information, the preliminary purchase price allocations disclosed below are subject to change. Any future adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocations, including changes within identifiable intangible assets or estimation uncertainty impacted by market conditions, may impact future net earnings. The purchase price allocation adjustments can be made through the end of the measurement periods, which is not to exceed one year from the respective acquisition dates.
Note 4 — Income Taxes
Effective Tax Rate — The quarter-to-date March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 effective tax rates were 24.9% and 25.9%, respectively.
Valuation Allowance — The Company has not established a valuation allowance as it has been determined that, based upon available evidence, a valuation allowance is not required. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits — Management believes it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $0.3 million in unrecognized tax benefits relating to federal deductions may be necessary within the next twelve months.
Interest and Penalties — Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $0.1 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Tax Examinations — Certain of the Company's subsidiaries are currently under examination by Federal and various state jurisdictions for tax years ranging from 2014 to 2020. At the completion of these examinations, management does not expect any adjustments that would have a material impact on the Company's effective tax rate. Years subsequent to 2017 remain subject to examination.
Note 5 — Accounts Receivable Securitization
As of March 31, 2022, the Company's eligible receivables related to the 2021 RSA generally have high credit quality, as determined by the obligor's corporate credit rating.
The 2021 RSA is subject to fees, various affirmative and negative covenants, representations and warranties, and default and termination provisions customary for facilities of this type. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2022. Collections on the underlying receivables by the Company are held for the benefit of SRCII and the various purchasers and are unavailable to satisfy claims of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The following table summarizes the key terms of the 2021 RSA (dollars in thousands):

Pursuant to the 2021 Debt Agreement, the 2021 Revolver and the 2021 Term Loans contain certain financial covenants with respect to a maximum net leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio. The 2021 Debt Agreement provides flexibility regarding the use of proceeds from asset sales, payment of dividends, stock repurchases, and equipment financing. In addition to the financial covenants, the 2021 Debt Agreement includes usual and customary events of default for a facility of this nature and provides that, upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default, payment of all amounts payable under the 2021 Debt Agreement may be accelerated, and the lenders' commitments may be terminated. The 2021 Debt Agreement contains certain usual and customary restrictions and covenants relating to, among other things, dividends (which are restricted only if a default or event of default occurs and is continuing or would result therefrom), liens, affiliate transactions, and other indebtedness. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the 2021 Debt Agreement.
Borrowings under the 2021 Debt Agreement, are made by Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc., and are guaranteed by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries (other than its captive insurance subsidiaries, driving academy subsidiary, and bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary).
ACT Credit Agreement
Prudential Notes — The 2021 Prudential Notes allow ACT to borrow up to $125.0 million, less amounts then currently outstanding with Prudential Capital Group, provided that certain financial ratios are maintained. The 2021 Prudential Notes have interest rates ranging from 4.05% to 4.40% and various maturity dates ranging from October 2023 through January 2028. The 2021 Prudential Notes are unsecured and contain usual and customary restrictions on, among other things, the ability to make certain payments to stockholders, similar to the provisions of the Company's 2021 Debt Agreement. As of March 31, 2022, ACT had $87.9 million available under the agreement.
