Industry and Competition

Truckload

The trucking industry is at the core ofplays a vital role in providing both growth and stability in the U.S. economy and moves the vast majority of freight volume in the U.S. It is a highly competitive and fragmented industry, characterized by manynumerous small carriers. Increased regulations and initiatives to improve the safety and reduce emissions of the U.S. trucking industry have impacted industry dynamics in recent years and are discussed in the Regulation section below. Our Truckload segment competes with thousands of dry van and specialty equipment carriers. While we compete with many smaller carriers on a regional basis, only a limited number of carriers represent competition in all markets across North America.

Intermodal

The domestic intermodal segment is highly consolidated whereamongst three of the top threelargest intermodal providers, including our Intermodal segment, operateand operates a significant portion of the U.S. domestic container fleet. Our Intermodal segment competes with intermodal providers and other transportation service companies, including truckload carriers.

Human Capital Management

Schneider is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive culture that values and respects the varied talents and perspectives of our associates. We recognize the advantage of hiring and retaining associates who help us create value for our shareholders.

Associates and Workforce

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we employed approximately 16,05017,050 associates, (exclusive of MLS associates), 67% of whom are drivers with the remaining 33% consisting of mechanics and warehouse personnel, managers, and other corporate office associates. With the acquisition of MLS on December 31, 2021, roughly 1,000 associates were added. Approximately 16% of our associates are based at our headquarters in Green Bay, Wisconsin. We have not experienced any work stoppages and consider our associate relations to be good. Currently, five of our company drivers are members of an organized labor union, as a result of a commitment we made in the 1980s to allow this group of drivers to finish their careers at Schneider while remaining union members. None of our other associates are represented by a labor union.

As a result of our performance, integrity, and collaborative culture, we have a highly engaged workforce deployed over a diverse set of positions across our segments, geographies, and businesses. Where consistent with our operational needs, we offer a variety of flexible working arrangements to associates, including remote and blended work configurations.

Associate Recruitment, Development, and Retention

Company drivers - As a result of retirements, high turnover rates, and the challenges of attracting new drivers, the industry and the long-haul truckload sector, in particular, have been characterized by persistent shortages of truck drivers. Recognizing the indispensableessential role that our drivers play in the ability to serve our customers, we remain focused on making our driver experience the best in the industry. We employ measures to improve retention, and our turnover rate is generally consistent with the industry standard. Those measures include establishing monthly hiring targets, offering drivers competitive salaries and benefits, establishing driver pay scales which provide for increasing pay by experience level and performance, offering both live and remote driver training by experienced driving instructors, and maintaining a modern truck fleet with the latest safety technology, andall of which focus on improving the overall driver experience.

Non-driver Company associates - Our mechanics, warehouse personnel, managers, and other corporate office associates help to facilitate and coordinate service to customers, ensure equipment is operational and well maintained,well-maintained, and generally support our operations. As we strive to offer best-in-class service to our customers, we focus on hiring top talent and providing them with opportunities for development and growth within their roles and throughout the organization. We utilize a performance management system that incorporates goals and development plans that are assessed semiannually to better position associates for future career growth. Succession planning is regularly performed to help identify and develop a pipeline of talent in critical roles within our organization. Additionally, we routinely conduct market analyses to ensure wages and benefits remain competitive, and we offer associates classroom, virtual, and web-based training options through our comprehensive learning program.

Diversity and Inclusion

We believe diversity fuels innovation, improves strategic thinking, and cultivates leadership. ‘Respect for All’ is one of our four core values. We embrace and seek out diversity that is inclusive of thought, race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, experience, and background. Furthering our Company’s diversity goals and objectives has been incorporated into the selection of and performance management process for our leaders and associates. We have also established Cultural Connections, an internal group committed to educating ourselves and coworkers on topics that pertain to who we are,ongoing social issues and fostering interpersonal relationships across cultures both at Schneider and in 2021,the community, and in 2022, we were named a “Top Company“Best Employer for Women to WorkWomen” and a “Best Employer for in Transportation”Diversity” by Redefining the Road, the official magazine of the Women in Trucking Association (WIT).

SafetyForbes.

Safety
“Safety first and always” is a Schneider core value. We believe we have a responsibility to our associates, customers, and the community to operate safely. Our safety culture is built on five key components:

Driver hiring and drug testing. We hire both experienced drivers and drivers new to the industry through a comprehensive hiring process. As part of that process, we voluntarily choose to use hair follicle testing in addition to mandated urine-based drug testing. While costing more per driver, hair follicle testing is generally more accurate than urine-based testing.
Military drivers. We have a strong relationship with the U.S. military and employ many drivers with military experience. This experience produces quality truck drivers due to the discipline instilled through military training programs.
Training. Initial training is complemented by regularly scheduled follow-up training to sustain and enhance basic skills. We operate company-sponsored driver training facilities and have invested in simulators for both initial and sustainment training.
Equipment and technology. We invest in trucks that are configured with roll stability, collision mitigation, lane departure warning, and forward-facing cameras. Driving behavior is electronically monitored, alerts are provided to the driver situationally, and performance is documented for subsequent coaching. We also employ electronic logging in an effort to ensureimprove HOS compliance and reduce fatigue occurrences.
Active management. Driver leaders and safety coordinators have real-time access to activity in the truck, facilitating situational and scheduled coaching. We have invested in predictive analytics that assist in proactively identifying drivers with potential safety issues and recommending a remediation path.

Truckload carriers share safety performance information in monitored peer-to-peer forums. We have always maintained a satisfactory DOT safety rating, which is the highest available rating.

Owner-Operators

In addition to the company drivers we employ, we enter into contracts with independent contractors who work as “owner-operators”. Owner-operators are small business owners who own and maintain their own trucks, may employ drivers they hire, and provide us with services under a contractual arrangement whereby they are generally responsible for the costs of truck ownership and operating expenses. Owner-operators select their own load assignments, have control over their schedule, and are compensated on a per load basis. Owner-operators tend to be experienced drivers and represented approximately 18%16% of driver capacity as of December 31, 2021.

2022.
Environmental, Social, and Governance

We prioritize doing business responsibly and embrace that we have a role to play in the betterment of society. At Schneider, we define sustainability broadly as safe and responsible practices that strengthen the economy and create a safer world. We seek to accomplish this by maintaining a modern fleet to maximize fuel and energy efficiency, leveraging our intermodal service to convert loads from truck to rail, consolidating freight whenever possible, and introducingcontinuing to introduce technologies to coordinate the movement of products timely, safely, and efficiently. Additionally, we continue to evaluate alternative fuel vehicles, and our efforts to improve overall fleet fuel efficiency and reduce GHG emissions are ongoing. In 2022, we will beginWe are in the process of adding a limited number ofnearly 100 Class 8 battery-electric zero emission trucks to our California fleet to contribute toward the Company’s goal of cutting its carbon dioxide emissions by 7.5% per mile by 2025 and 60% per mile by 2035.2035, and we continue to look for opportunities to expand our battery-electric fleet. In addition to efforts to make our fleet more efficient and reduce emissions, we are focused on improving sustainability at our operating facilities including upgrading to high-efficiency lighting, enhancing existing programs for recycling motor oil, tires, and batteries, and building a new innovation center that will leverage geothermal energy and solar energy to maximize resource efficiency. We are an EPA SmartWay® Transport Partner and are proud

to be one of only four freight carriers to receive the EPA’s SmartWay® Award of Excellence Award each year since the award was created. We were the first company to receive the National Safety Council’s Green Cross for Safety Award for two consecutive years. As always, we continue to ingrain safety into our corporate culture and strive to conduct all of our operations as safely as possible.

Fuel

We actively manage our fuel purchasing network in an effort to maintain adequate fuel supplies. In 2021,2022, we made 99% of our fuel purchases through negotiated volume purchase discounts. We store fuel in underground storage tanks at sixfive locations and in above-ground storage tanks at one location.two locations. We believe that we are in substantive compliance with applicable environmental laws relating to the storage of fuel.

In response to fluctuations in fuel prices, we use surcharge programs to adjust fuel costs charged to our customers. We believe the most cost-effective protection against variability in fuel costs is to continue the fuel surcharge programs and invest in a fuel-efficient fleet. However, fuel surcharges may not adequately cover potential future increases in fuel prices. As an additional measure, we leverage fuel consumption metrics in evaluating drivers’ performance, and drivers utilize a fuel optimizer program where they purchase fuel at the most cost-effective locations based on distance to empty and fuel purchase commitments.

We seek to find ways to reduce our carbon dioxide emissions including increasing the fuel efficiency of our current fleet, exploring alternative fuel vehicles, and deploying BEVs. In recent years, we invested in our existing diesel fleet to improve truck aerodynamics, reduce trailer drag, and implement electric-powered heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, which translates to emissions reductions and fuel savings. We are currently exploring alternative fuel vehicles, including hydrogen vehicles, and are in the process of adding nearly 100 BEVs to our fleet which will replace existing diesel trucks and reduce our diesel fuel usage.
Regulation

Our operations as a for-hire motor carrier are regulated and licensed by various federal, state, and local government agencies in North America, including the U.S. DOT, FMCSA, U.S. DHS, NHTSA, EPA, and OSHA. These regulatory authorities have broad powers over matters relating to authorized motor carrier operations, as well as motor carrier registration, safety and fitness of transportation equipment and drivers, transportation of hazardous materials, certain mergers and acquisitions, and periodic financial reporting. Our driver associates and owner-operators must also comply with carrier qualifications and enacted governmental regulations regarding safety, equipment, and operating methods. Examples include the DOT regulation of equipment weight, equipment dimensions, driver HOS, drug and alcohol testing of our current and prospective driver associates, as well as other driver eligibility requirements, on-board reporting of operations, and ergonomics. The FMCSA Commercial Driver’s License Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse rule (“Clearinghouse”) requires employers to report information related to violations of the drug and alcohol regulation for current and prospective driver employees and to query the Clearinghouse for such driver employees before allowing them to operate a commercial motor vehicle on public roads, as well as at least annually for current drivers.In addition, we are subject to compliance with cargo-security and transportation regulations issued by the Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) and Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) within the DHS, and our cross-border operations in Canada and Mexico are subject to regulation by each of those countries.

We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations dealing with, among other aspects of our operations, the handling of hazardous materials, underground fuel storage tanks at our terminals, emissions from our vehicles and facilities, engine idling, and discharge and retention of storm water. These laws and regulations have the potential to increase costs, risks, and liabilities associated with our applicable operations. Additionally, we may be impacted by potential future legislation and regulations related to climate change.

We are also subject to a variety of laws and regulations which are targeted at reducing GHG emissions and improving air quality and fuel efficiency at a national level. Prominent among those regulations are certain environmental regulations in effect in the State of California, including the Heavy-Duty Vehicle GHG Emission Reduction Regulation which was issued to reduce GHG emissions from certain long-haul tractor-trailers that operate in California by requiring owners of such vehicles or equipment to retrofit their vehicles with aerodynamic elements and accessories and implement technologies that improve fuel efficiency (regardless of where the vehicle is registered), and the ACT regulation, which requires original equipment manufacturers to begin shifting towards greater production of zero-emission heavy duty tractors beginning in 2024. Under the ACT, every new tractor sold in California will need to be zero-emission by 2045. While the ACT does not apply to those simply operating tractors in California, it could impact the cost and/or supply of traditional diesel tractors and lead to similar legislation in other states or at the federal level. The EPA and the NHTSA have also begun taking coordinated steps in support of a new generation of clean vehicles and engines to reduce GHG emissions. Complying with these and any future GHG regulations enacted by California’s Air Resources Board, the CARB, EPA, the NHTSA, and/or any other state or federal governing body has increased and will likely continue to increase the cost of our new tractors, may increase the cost of new trailers, may require us to retrofit certain of our trailers, may increase our maintenance costs, and could impair equipment productivity and increase our operating costs, particularly if such costs are not offset by potential fuel savings. These adverse effects, combined with the uncertainty as to the reliability of the newly designed diesel engines and the residual values of our equipment, could materially increase our costs or otherwise adversely affect our business or operations. WeHowever, we cannot predict however, the extent to which our operations and productivity will be impacted. We will continue monitoring our compliance with federal and state GHG regulations.

Table of Contents
Federal and state lawmakers are considering a variety of other climate-change proposals related to carbon and GHG emissions. The proposals could potentially limit carbon emissions within certain states and municipalities, which would restrict the location and amount of time that diesel-powered tractors may idle. Such proposals could result in a decrease indecreased productivity or increaseincreased driver turnover. Regulatory requirements and changes in regulatory requirements may affect our business or the economics of the industry by requiring changes in operating practices that could influence the demand for and increase the costs of providing transportation services. If current regulatory requirements become more stringent or new environmental laws and regulations regarding climate change are introduced, we could be required to make significant capital expenditures or discontinue certain activities.

We believe that our operations are in material compliance with current laws and regulations and do not know of any existing compliance issues or environmental conditions that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business or operating results. Additionally, we continue to monitor and evaluate the proposed rule makings of the DOT, FMCSA, NHTSA, EPA, State of California, and other federal and state regulatory agencies to determine the expected impact on our operations.

Technology

Our business is executed through an integrated technology platform that encompasses an end-to-end process design which focuses on information accessibility across our value chain.

You should consider each of the following factors, as well as the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our financial statements and the related notes, in evaluating our business and our prospects. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. In general, we are subject to the same general risks and uncertainties that impact many other companies such as general economic, industry, and/or market conditions and growth rates; risks and uncertainties associated with or arising out of COVID-19 and possible future pandemics; possible future terrorist threats or armed conflicts and their effect on the worldwide economy; and changes in laws or accounting rules. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of these risks occur, our business and financial results could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline.

Risks Related to Our Business, Industry, and Strategy

Our operating results may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic and market conditions.
Our business and results of operations are sensitive to changes in overall economic conditions that impact customer shipping volumes, industry freight demand, industry truck capacity, inflation, and our operating costs. Regarding our operating costs, inflationary pressures persist but are occurring and aregenerally expected to persistdecline in the near-term.U.S. in the near-term due to easing of supply chain constraints. We cannot predict future economic conditions, fuel price fluctuations, revenuetransportation equipment resale values, or how consumer confidence could be affected by such conditions. Economic conditions that decrease shipping demand, including but not limited to public health crises, outbreaks of infectious diseases, or increases in truck capacity in the North American transportation and logistics industry, can exert downward pressure on rates and equipment utilization. In general, significant decreases in shipping volumes within the industry or increases in available truck capacity result in more aggressive freight pricing as carriers compete for loads and to maintain truck productivity. Likewise, we are also subject to cost increases outside our control that could materially reduce our profitability if we are unable to offset such increases either through rate increases or cost reductions. Such cost increases include, but are not limited to, driver wages, third-party carrier costs, fuel and energy prices, taxes and interest rates, tolls, license and registration fees, insurance premiums, regulations, revenuetransportation equipment and related maintenance costs, and healthcare and other employee benefit costs. We cannot predict whether, or in what form, any such cost increases could occur. Any such cost increase or event could adversely affect our results of operations or cash flows.

We operate in a highly competitive and fragmented industry that is characterized by intense price competition which could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations.
Competition for the freight we transport or manage is based primarily on service, efficiency, available capacity, and to some degree, on freight rates alone. In addition, some of our customers have, and others may in the future, use or expand their own private fleets rather than outsourcing loads to us. Our operating segments compete with many other truckload carriers, logistics, brokerage, and transportation service providers of varying sizes, and to a lesser extent, LTL carriers, railroads, and other transportation or logistics companies, some of which have a larger fleet, greater access to equipment, preferential customer contracts, greater capital resources, or other competitive advantages. Competition for the freight we transport or manage is based primarily on service, efficiency, available capacity, and to some degree, on freight rates alone. Our competitors periodically reduce their freight rates to gain business, especially when economic conditions are present which negatively impact customer shipping volumes, truck capacities, or operating costs. Moreover, to limit the number of approved carriers to a manageable number, some of our customers select “core carriers” as approved transportation service providers, and in some instances, we may not be selected. Other of our customers periodically accept bids from multiple carriers for their shipping needs, which also periodically results in the loss of business to competitors. These competitive dynamics couldSome of our customers have, an adverse effect onand others may in the number of shipments we transport and the freight rates we receive, which could limitfuture, used or expanded their own private fleets rather than outsourcing loads to us.

successful in enabling us to sustain or grow our current market share in each of our segments. These competitive dynamics could have an adverse effect on the number of shipments we transport and the freight rates we receive, which could limit our growth opportunities and reduce our profitability.
We derive a significant portion of our revenues from our major customers, the loss of one or more of which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
We strive to maintain a diverse customer base however, a significant portion of our operating revenues is generated from a number of major customers, the loss of one or more of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Aside from our dedicated operations and supply chain management, we generally do not have long-term contractual relationships, or rate agreements, or minimum volume guarantees with our customers. Furthermore, certain of the long-term contracts in our dedicated operations are subject to cancellation. There is no assurance any of our customers, including our dedicated customers, will continue to utilize our services, renew our existing contracts, or continue at the same volume levels. Despite the existence of contractual arrangements, certain of our customers may nonetheless engage in competitive bidding processes that could negatively impact our contractual relationship.relationships. In addition, certain of our major customers may increasingly use their own truckload and delivery fleets, which would reduce our freight volumes. A reduction in or termination of our services by one or more of our major customers, including our dedicated customers, could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Difficulties attracting and retaining qualified drivers could materially, adversely affect our profitability and ability to maintain or grow our fleet.
Like many truckload carriers, weThe trucking industry continues to experience difficulty in attracting and retaining sufficient numbers of qualified drivers, both new and experienced, including owner-operators, and such shortages have and could continue to require us to significantly increase driver compensation, rely more on higher-cost third-party carriers, idle revenuetransportation equipment, or dispose of the equipment altogether, any of which could adversely affect our growth and profitability. Our challenge with attracting and retaining qualified drivers is driven by several factors including intense market competition for a limited pool of qualified drivers, inconsistent driver pay, the preference among drivers to work closer to home and be home most nights, and our highly selective hiring standards.

Our turnover rate requires us to continually recruit a substantial number of company and owner-operator drivers in order to meet customer demand. Owner-operator availability is generally affected by operating cost increases (which the owner-operator is responsible for) and generally favorable economic conditions, which drive overall increases in customer demand and heightened competition for owner-operators from other carriers. When shortages of owner-operators occur, we may be forced to increase the settlement rates paid to them and increase company driver pay rates to attract and retain a sufficient number of drivers. These increases could negatively affect our results of operations to the extent that we would be unable to obtain corresponding freight rate increases.
We face risks associated with unionization.
Although we believe that our relations with our associates are good and the number of our associates who are currently represented by a labor union is not significant, we face risks associated with the potential unionization of certain of our associates. We have recently been the subject of isolated unionization efforts involving a relatively small number of associates, which efforts were defeated. If a significant number of our associates opt to be represented by a labor union, we could experience a significant disruption of, or inefficiencies in, our operations or incur higher labor costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected,Additionally, our responses to any union organizing efforts could negatively impact how our brand is perceived and could continue to adversely affect, our operations, supply chains, and workforce, and we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, volatility in freight volumes and demand for certain of our service offerings.
There is continued uncertainty around the duration, breadth, and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Government and public health officials continue to recommend or mandate precautions to mitigate its spread, including prohibitions on unvaccinated individuals congregating in large groups, mask mandates, and vaccination requirements to attend certain events or places of business. The pandemic has significantly curtailed global economic activity and caused substantial volatility and disruption in global supply chains. Consequently, we and our customers, suppliers, third-party business partners, and contractors may continue to experience business disruptions, including worker absenteeism and resignations, office and factory closures, disruptions to ports, shipping lanes, and other shipping infrastructure, border closures, or other travel or health-related restrictions. Collectively, these disruptions could adversely impact our ability to operate efficiently.

The Company is continuing to monitor the progression of the pandemic and take appropriate actions in accordance with the recommendations and requirements of relevant authorities. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on many factors outside the Company’s control, including, without limitation, the timing, extent, trajectory, and duration of the pandemic; potential employee lawsuits alleging that unsafe workplaces have caused employees to contract COVID-19, or otherwise relating to the pandemic; the imposition of protective public safety measures; and the impact of the pandemic on the global economy and supply chain, and demand for consumer products. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and stock price, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described throughout the “Risk Factors” section.

The mandated precautions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have had, and may continue to have, an impact on the Company’s freight volumes, affecting our revenues and earnings. Additional future impacts on the Company (some of which have already occurred as described in this risk factor) may include, but are not limited to, material adverse effects on demand for the Company’s services, the Company’s supply chain and sales and distribution channels, the Company’s ability to execute its strategic plans, the Company’s ability to hire and retain drivers, and the Company’s profitability and cost structure. While no one can predict with any certainty the scale, length of disruption, or liabilities resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is possible that our results of operations could be negatively affected by the impact of the virus on the Company’s associates, customers, and suppliers or further governmental, regulatory, fiscal, and public health responses. We are unable to predict any future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemicbusiness, including on our business, financial condition,results. These responses could also expose us to legal risk or reputational harm and results ofcause us to incur costs to defend legal and regulatory actions. Moreover, any labor disputes or work stoppages, whether or not our other associates unionize, could disrupt our operations at this time.

and reduce our revenues.
A subset of our employee population works remotely (prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic) which may exacerbate the cybersecurity risks to our business, including an increased demand for information technology resources, increased risk of phishing, and other cybersecurity attacks.
We have, and will continue to have, a portion of our workforce that works from home full-time or under flexible work arrangements, and we have provided associates with expanded remote network access options which enable them to work outside of our corporate infrastructure and, in some cases, use their own personal devices, which exposes the Company to additional cybersecurity risks. The United States Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (“CISA”) has warned that cybercriminals will take advantage of the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic to launch attacks which will further disrupt operations. Specifically, our associates working remotely expose the Company to cybersecurity risks in the following ways: (1) unauthorized access to sensitive information as a result of increased remote access, including associates use of company-owned and personal devices and videoconferencing functions and applications to remotely handle, access, discuss, or transmit confidential financial data, (2) increased exposure to phishing and other scams as cybercriminals use the fear and uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic to further manipulate associates through phishing schemes to, among other things, install malicious software on Company systems and equipment and surrender sensitive information, and (3) violation of international, federal, or state-specific privacy laws. We believe that the increased number of associates working remotely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic has incrementally increased our cyber risk profile, but we are unable to predict the extent or impacts of those risks at this time. A significant disruption of our information technology systems, unauthorized access to or loss of confidential information, or legal claims resulting from our violation of privacy laws could each have a material adverse effect on our business.

The success of our businesses depends on our strong reputation and ability to maintain the Schneider brand value.
Because the services that we market and sell under the Schneider brand generate essentially all of the Company’s revenues, the Schneider brand name is our most valuable sales and marketing tool. Press coverage, lawsuits, regulatory investigations, or other adverse publicity that assert some form of wrongdoing or that depict the Company or any of our executives, associates, contractors, or agents in a negative light, regardless of the factual basis of the assertions being made, could tarnish our reputation and result in a loss of brand equity. If we do not maintain and protect our brand image and reputation, demand for our services could wane and thus have an adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations, as well as require additional resources to rebuild our reputation and restore the value of our brand.

If fuel prices rise or fall significantly, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
Our truckload operations are largely dependent uponon diesel fuel, and accordingly, significant increases in diesel fuel costs could materially and adversely affect our results oftruckload operations, and financial condition if we are unable to pass increased costs on to customers through rate increases or fuel surchargesor if shippers opt for intermodal rail over trucking their freight.freight, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Likewise, if diesel fuel prices decrease significantly, the results of our intermodal operations could be adversely affected as shippers shift intermodal freight to over the road trucking. Prices and availability of petroleum products are subject to political, economic, geographic, weather-related, and market factors that are generally outside our control and each of which may lead to fluctuations in the cost of fuel.

Our fuel surcharge program does not protect us against the full effect of increases in diesel fuel prices, and the terms of our fuel surcharge agreements vary by customer. In addition, because our fuel surcharge recovery lags behind changes in diesel fuel prices, our fuel surcharge recovery may not capture the increased costs we pay for fuel, especially when prices are rising. There is variability in the compensatory nature of individual customer fuel surcharge programs that can affect inflationary cost recovery of fuel.

There is no assurance that such fuel surcharges can be maintained indefinitely or will be sufficiently effective. Our results of operations would be negatively affected to the extent we cannot recover higher fuel costs or fail to improve our fuel price protection through our fuel surcharge program. Increases in diesel fuel prices, or a shortage or rationing of diesel fuel, could also materially and adversely affect our results of operations. As of December 31, 2021,2022, we did not have any derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to fuel price fluctuations.

We depend on railroads and access to the nation’s ports of call in the operation of our intermodal business, and therefore, our ability to offer intermodal services or our results of operations could be limitedadversely impacted if weour rail partners or certain ports of call were to perform poorly or experience instability from third parties we use in that business.service disruptions.
Our Intermodal segment utilizes railroads and, in some cases, third-party drayage carriers to transport freight for our intermodal customers. The majority of these services are provided pursuant to contractual relationshipscontracts with the railroads.our service partners which are subject to periodic renewal. While we have had agreements with all of the Class I railroads, our primary contracts are currently with the BNSF and CSX Transportation (“CSX”) freight railroads to provide rail-based freightfor railroad transportation services in support of our intermodal operations. Oneoperations are currently with CSX Transportation and the Union Pacific Railroad Company.

Table of our competitors has a preferential contractual arrangement with BNSF, which limits the market share and relative profitability of the services we provide through the BNSF. Beginning in 2023, UP will replace BNSF as our primary rail service provider in the western U.S. The transition to UP and away from BNSF will be complete by January 2023. The transition will require cooperation and coordination by Schneider with both BNSF and UP to be successful and to ensure no interruptions in our intermodal service results. Our results of operations could be adversely affected by any extended interruption of our intermodal service offering due to this transition or UP's ability to manage our rail volumes following the transition.Contents

In certain markets and rail corridors,areas of the U.S., rail service is limited to a few railroads, or even a single railroad due to the lack of competition. Our ability to provide intermodal services in certain traffic lanes is, therefore, likely to be reduced or constrictedadversely affected if any of the Class I railroads were to discontinue service in thosecertain lanes, or if either of our rail partners experience service interruptions, or if the overall statequality of their rail service in those lanes were to deteriorate.

Our contracts with the railroads are subject to periodic renewal, and In addition, our intermodal business may be adversely affected by any adverse change in our contract terms with the railroads, our relationships with the railroads, or declines in service and volume levels provided by the railroads.

All of the Class I railroads in the U.S., including our current rail partners, are unionized and have a history of disruption due to labor disputes and collective action, including strikes. For example, a national rail strike that could have paralyzed much of the U.S. economy appears to have been averted in December 2022 after the U.S. Congress intervened to bind the railroads and rail workers to a proposed settlement that was reached earlier in the year between the railroads and union leaders. There can be no guarantee that rail workers who disagree with the proposed settlement will not take actions that disrupt rail service on a wide scale. As a result, we cannot predict whether or when a rail strike or labor dispute involving our rail partners could occur.
In addition, a portion of the freight we deliver through both our Intermodal and Truckload segments is imported to the U.S. through ports of call where workers are largely unionized, and which recently have been, subject to COVID-induced congestion, backlogs, and unloading delays. Therepresented by the ILWU, is a labor union which primarily represents dock workers on the West Coastwest coast of the U.S., or the International Longshoremen’s Association, a labor union representing longshore workers along the east coast of the U.S. The ILWU’s current coast wide contract with west coast port owners is scheduled to expireexpired on July 1, 2022. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the ILWU and Pacific Maritime Assocation, which represents west coast port owners, had not entered into a new contract. In the previous four contract negotiations between the ILWU and port owners dating back to the late 1990s, negotiations went past the July 1 deadline,expiration of the contract and in those contract years, work slowdowns or an employer lockoutlockouts ensued.Work Although, as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there have been no reports or signs of work stoppages shipping backlogs, port congestion,or strikes, there can be no guarantee that work stoppages or other disruptions at any of thesethe west coast ports could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

The valuation of the Company’s investments in strategic partners and technologies is subject to volatility.
The market valuation of our strategic investments, especially as it relates to our investment in TuSimple which is publicly traded, may experience substantial price volatility which, when accounted for under GAAP, could have a material adverse affect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Refer to Note 5, Investments, to our consolidated financial statements for information on our strategic investments. Those investments can be negatively affected by market and economic factors including liquidity, credit deterioration, financial results, interest rate fluctuations, or other factors. As a result, future fluctuations in their value could result in significant losses and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

We are making strategic investments in new offerings and technologies and expect to continue to make such investments in the future. These ventures are inherently risky, and we may never realize any expected benefits from them which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.
We engage in strategic transactions and make strategic investments including investments in autonomous vehicle technology, cloud-based transportation management systemTMS software platforms, telematics, and mobile software applications which are focused on establishing a competitive advantage in the transportation and logistics services offered by the Company or exploiting new market opportunities. Refer to Note 5, Investments, to our consolidated financial statements for information on our strategic investments. Such strategic investments naturally entail risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. For example, we may not be able to derive value from strategic investments or we may incur higher than expected costs in realizing a return on such investments or overestimate the benefits that we receive or realize from such investments. Therefore, we cannot provide assurance that any of our strategic investments will generate anticipated financial returns. If our strategic investments fail to meet our expectations, our business and results of operations may be adversely impacted.
The valuation of the Company’s investments is subject to volatility.

The market valuation of our strategic investments in various public and private companies may experience substantial price volatility which, when accounted for under GAAP, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Refer to Note 5,
Investments, to our consolidated financial statements for information on our strategic investments. Those investments can be negatively affected by market and economic factors including liquidity, credit deterioration, financial results, interest rate fluctuations, or other factors. As a result, future fluctuations in their value could result in significant losses and have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
We depend on third-party capacity providers, and issues of performance, availability, or pricing with these transportation providers could increase our operating costs, reduce our ability to offer intermodal and brokerage services, and limit growth in our brokerage and logistics operations, which could adversely affect our revenue, results of operations, and customer relationships.
Our Logistics segment is highly dependent on the services of third-party capacity providers, such as other truckload carriers, LTL carriers, railroads, ocean carriers, and airlines. Many of those providers face the same economic challenges as we do and, therefore, are actively and competitively soliciting business. These economic conditions may have an adverse effect on the performance, availability, and cost of third-party capacity. If we are unable to secure the services of these third-party capacity providers at reasonable rates, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Severe weather, climate, and similar events could harm our results of operations or make our results more volatile.
From time to time, we may suffer impacts from severe weather, climate, and similar events, such as tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, ice storms, floods, fires, earthquakes, and explosions, which may become more severe in the future as a result of climate change. These events may disrupt freight shipments or routes, affect regional economies, destroy our assets, disrupt fuel supplies, increase fuel costs, cause lost revenue and productivity, increase our maintenance costs, or adversely affect the business or financial condition of our customers, any of which could harm our results of operations or make our results of operations more volatile.

Risks Relating to Our Financial Condition, Taxation, and Capital Requirements

Our goodwill, other intangible assets, internal use software, or long-lived assets may become impaired, which could result in a significant charge to earnings.
We hold significant amounts of goodwill and long-lived assets, and the balances of these assets could increase in the future if we acquire other businesses. At December 31, 2021,2022, the balance of our goodwill, other intangible assets, internal use software, and long-lived assets was $2.4$2.6 billion, and the total market value of the Company’s outstanding shares was $4.8$4.2 billion. Under GAAP, our goodwill, other intangible assets, internal use software, and long-lived assets are subject to an impairment analysis when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of such goodwill or long-lived assets may not be recoverable. In addition, we test goodwill for impairment annually. Factors that may be considered a change in circumstances indicating that the carrying value of our goodwill, orother intangible assets, internal use software, and long-lived assets may not be recoverable include, but are not limited to, a sustained decline in stock price and market capitalization, significant negative variances between actual and expected financial results, reduced future cash flow estimates, adverse changes in applicable laws or regulations or legal proceedings, failure to realize anticipated synergies from acquisitions, and slower growth rates in our industry. We may be required to record a significant charge to earnings in our consolidated financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill, orother intangible assets, internal use software, and long-lived assets is determined to exist, negatively impacting our results of operations. If our market capitalization was to fall below the book value of our total stockholders’ equity for a sustained period, we may conclude that the fair value of certain of our long-lived assets is materially impaired. In this case, we would be required under GAAP to record a noncash charge to our earnings which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We have significant ongoing capital requirements that could affect our profitability if we either fail or are unable to match the timing of our capital investments do not matchwith customer demand, for invested resources, or we are otherwise unable to generate sufficient cash from operations.returns on our invested capital.
Our truckload and intermodal operations are capital-intensive, and our strategic decision to invest in newer equipment requires us to expend significant amounts in capital expenditures annually. The amount and timing of such capital expenditures depend on various factors, including anticipated freight demand and the price and availability of new or used tractors. Recently, the amount and timing of capital expenditures also has been affected by delayed truck deliveries by original equipment manufacturers due to semiconductor and other component shortages. If anticipated demandfreight volume differs materially from actual usage, our capital-intensiveforecasts or customer demand, our truckload operations may have too many or too few assets. Moreover, resource requirements vary based on customer demand, which may be subject to seasonal or general economic conditions. During periods of decreased customer demand, our asset

utilization may suffer,is challenged, and we may be forced to sell equipment on the open market in order to rightsize our fleet. This could cause us to incur losses on such sales, particularly during times of a softer used equipment market, either of which could have a materially adverse effect on our profitability.

Should demand for freight shipments weaken or our margins suffer due to increased competition or general economic conditions, we may have to limit our fleet size or operate our revenuetransportation equipment for longer periods, either of which could have a materially adverse effect on our operations and profitability.

Our effective tax rate may fluctuate, which would impact our future financial results.
Our effective tax rate may be adversely impacted by, among other things, changes in the regulations relating to capital expenditure deductions, or changes in tax laws where we operate, including the uncertainty of future tax rates. We cannot give any assurance as to the stability or predictability of our effective tax rate in the future because of, among other things, uncertainty regarding the tax laws and policies of the countries where we operate.

Although we do not expect current U.S. federal income tax proposals (including, for example, those included in President Biden’s Build Back Better Act released at the end of October 2021) to have a material impact on our effective tax rate or tax payments, we cannot predict what changes to U.S. federal income tax law may be proposed in the future or whether they are likely to be passed. In addition, while our review of the corporate tax proposals introduced in the draft legislation did not indicate that any such proposals would have an impact on Schneider’s effective tax rate or tax payments, we cannot predict what legislation may be proposed in the future or its likelihood of passing. Our estimates of the impact of any proposed legislation may not reflect the actual impact of such legislation once it is implemented and enforced by governmental authorities.
Further, our tax returns are subject to periodic reviews or audits by domestic and international authorities, and these audits may result in adjustments to our provision for taxes or allocations of income or deductions that result in tax assessments different from amounts that we have estimated. We regularly assess the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from these audits to determine the adequacy of our provision for taxes. There can be no assurance as to the outcome of these audits or that our tax provisions will not change materially or be adequate to satisfy any associated tax liability. If our effective tax rates were to increase or if our tax liabilities exceed our estimates and provisions for such taxes, our financial results could be adversely affected.

Insurance and claims expenses could significantly reduce our earnings.
We self-insure, or insure through our wholly-owned captive insurance company, a significant portion of our claims exposure resulting from auto liability, general liability, cargo, and property damage claims, as well as workers’ compensation. In addition to insuring portions of our risk, our captive insurance company provides insurance coverage to our owner-operator drivers. We are also responsible for our legal expenses relating to such claims, which can be significant both on an aggregate and individual claim basis. Although we reserve for anticipated losses and expenses and periodically evaluate and adjust our claims reserves to reflect our experience, estimating the number and severity of claims, as well as related costs to settle or resolve them, is inherently difficult, and such costs could exceed our estimates. Accordingly, our actual losses associated with insured claims may differ materially from our estimates and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations in material amounts.

Table of Contents
As a supplement to our self-insurance program, we maintain insurance with excess insurance carriers for potential losses, which exceed the amounts we self-insure. Although we believe our aggregate insurance limits should be sufficient to cover our historic claims amounts, the commercial trucking industry has experienced a wave of blockbuster or so-called “nuclear”“nuclear verdicts, where juries have awarded tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars to accident victims and their families. Given this recent trend, it is possible that one or more claims could exceed our aggregate coverage limits. If any claim were to exceed our aggregate insurance coverage, we would bear the excess, in addition to our other self-insured amounts.

Given the current claims settlement environment, the amount of coverage available from excess insurance carriers is decreasing, and the premiums for this excess coverage are increasing significantly. For the foregoing reasons, our insurance and claims expenses may increase, or we could increase our self-insured retention as policies are renewed or replaced. In addition, we may assume additional risk within our captive insurance company that we may or may not reinsure. Our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected if (1) our costs or losses significantly exceed our aggregate coverage limits, (2) we are unable to obtain insurance coverage in amounts we deem sufficient, (3) our insurance carriers fail to pay on our insurance claims, or (4) we experience a claim for which coverage is not provided.

Risks Relating to Our Governance Structure

Voting control of the Company is concentrated with a Voting Trust that was established for certain members of the Schneider family, which limits the ability of our other shareholders to influence major corporate transactions.
We currently have a dual class common stock structure consisting of (1) Class A common stock, entitled to ten votes per share and (2) Class B common stock, entitled to one vote per share. The Schneider family, including trusts established for the benefit of certain members of the Schneider family, collectively beneficially own 100% of our outstanding Class A common stock and approximately 42%41% of our outstanding Class B common stock, representing approximately 94% of the total voting power of all of our outstanding common stock and approximately 69%68% of our total outstanding common stock.

A Voting Trust holds the shares of Class A common stock that are beneficially owned by the Schneider family. The independent directors who are members of our Corporate Governance Committee serve as trustees of the Voting Trust, and in general, those directors have full power and discretion to vote the Class A shares included in the Voting Trust with two exceptions. First, in the case of any Major Transaction (as defined under our Amended and Restated Bylaws, including, most notably, a transaction resulting in more than 40% of the voting power of our common stock being held outside of the Schneider family), the independent directors of our Corporate Governance Committee must vote the shares of common Class A stock held in the Voting Trust as directed by the trustees of certain trusts which have been established for the benefit of certain Schneider family members. As a result, the outcome of the vote on any Major Transaction is not within the discretion of the Voting Trustees. Second, the independent directors of our Corporate Governance Committee must vote the shares of common Class A stock held in the Voting Trust in accordance with a nomination process agreement pursuant to which two specified Schneider family members will be nominated to serve on our Board on an annual, rotating basis.

As a result of these arrangements, the Voting Trust controls the outcome of major corporate transactions that require or may be accomplished by shareholder approval, and our Class B shareholders would be unable to affect the outcome of such transactions should any be proposed.

We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules of the NYSE and, as a result, qualify for, and intend to rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements relating to our Corporate Governance Committee. Our shareholders will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of other companies that are subject to such requirements.
The Voting Trust has more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors. As a result, we qualify as a “controlled company” under the corporate governance rules for NYSE-listed companies. As a controlled company, certain exemptions under the NYSE listing standards exempt us from the obligation to comply with certain NYSE corporate governance requirements, including the requirement that we have a Corporate Governance Committee that is composed entirely of independent directors.

We have elected to take advantage of this “controlled company” exemption, and therefore, the holders of our Class B common stock may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance rules for NYSE-listed companies. Our status as a controlled company could therefore make our Class B common stock less attractive to some investors or otherwise depress our stock price.    

The price of our Class B common stock has been and may continue to be volatile and may fluctuate significantly, which may adversely impact investor confidence and increase the likelihood of securities class action litigation.
Our Class B common stock price has experienced volatility in the past and may remain volatile in the future. Volatility in our stock price can be driven by many factors including divergence between our actual or anticipated financial results and published expectations of analysts or the expectations of the market, the gain or loss of customers, announcements that we, our
12

Table of Contents
competitors, our customers, or our vendors or other key partners may make regarding their operating results and other factors which are beyond our control such as market conditions in our industry, new market entrants, technological innovations, and economic and political conditions or events. These and other factors may cause the market price and demand for our Class B common stock to fluctuate substantially. During 2021,2022, the closing stock price of our Class B common stock ranged from a low of $20.46$20.30 per share to a high of $27.10$27.28 per share. Our Class B common stock is also included in certain market indices, and any change in the composition of these indices to exclude our company may adversely affect our stock price. Increased volatility in the financial markets and/or overall economic conditions may reduce the amounts that we realize in the future on our cash equivalents and/or marketable securities and may reduce our earnings as a result of any impairment charges that we record to reduce recorded values of marketable securities to their fair values.

Further, securities class action litigation is often brought against a public company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. Due to changes in our stock price, we may be the target of securities litigation in the future. Securities litigation could result in substantial uninsured costs and divert management’s attention and our resources.

Certain provisions in our certificate of incorporation, by-laws, and Wisconsin law may prevent or delay an acquisition of the Company, which could decrease the trading price of our Class B common stock.
Each of our certificate of incorporation, our by-laws, and Wisconsin law, as currently in effect, contain provisions that are intended to deter coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids by making such practices or bids unacceptably expensive to a bidder and to encourage prospective acquirers to negotiate with our Board rather than to attempt a hostile takeover. These provisions include, among others:

a dual class common stock structure, which provides the Schneider National, Inc. Voting Trust the ability to control the outcome of matters requiring shareholder approval, even if the Schneider National, Inc. Voting Trust beneficially owns significantly less than a majority of the shares of our outstanding Class A and Class B common stock;
a requirement that certain transactions be conditioned upon approval by 60% of the voting power of our capital stock, including any transaction which results in the Schneider family holding less than 40% of the voting power of our capital stock, a sale of substantially all of our assets, and a dissolution;
no provision for cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow holders of less than a majority of stock to elect some directors;
the inability of shareholders to call a special meeting except when the holders of at least ten percent of all votes entitled to be cast on the proposed issue submit a written demand;
advance notice procedures for the nomination of candidates for election as directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon at shareholder meetings;
the ability of our directors, without a stockholder vote, to fill vacancies on our Board (including those resulting from an enlargement of the Board);
the requirement that both 75% of the directors constituting the full Board and stockholders holding at least 80% of our voting stock are required to amend certain provisions in our certificate of incorporation and our by-laws; and
the right of our Board to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval.

Our status as a Wisconsin corporation and the anti-takeover provisions of the WBCL may discourage, delay, or prevent a change in control even if a change in control would be beneficial to our shareholders by prohibiting us from engaging in a business combination with any person that is the beneficial owner of at least 10% of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock (an “interested shareholder”) for a period of three years after such person becomes an interested shareholder, unless our Board has approved, before the date on which the shareholder acquired the shares, that a business combination or the purchase of stock made by such interested stockholder on such stock acquisition date. In addition, we may engage in a business combination with an interested shareholder after the expiration of the three-year period with respect to that shareholder only if one or more of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) our Board approved the acquisition of the stock before the date on which the shareholder acquired the shares, (2) the business combination is approved by a majority of our outstanding voting stock not beneficially owned by the interested shareholder, or (3) the consideration to be received by shareholders meets certain fair price requirements of the WBCL with respect to form and amount.

These provisions could have the effect of discouraging, delaying, or preventing a transaction involving a change in control of our company. These provisions could also have the effect of discouraging proxy contests and making it more difficult for our non-controlling shareholders to elect directors of their choosing, causing us to take other corporate actions.

In light of present circumstances, we believe these provisions taken as a whole protect our stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics by requiring potential acquirers to negotiate with our Board and by providing our Board with more time to assess any acquisition proposal. These provisions are not intended to make us immune from takeovers or prevent the removal of incumbent directors. However, these provisions could delay or prevent an acquisition that our Board determines is not in the best interests of the Company and all of our stockholders.

We may change our dividend policy at any time.
The declaration and amount of any future dividends, including the payment of special dividends, is dependent on multiple factors, including our financial performance and capital needs, and is subject to the discretion of our Board. The Board may, in its discretion, determine to cut, cancel, or eliminate our dividend and, therefore, the declaration of any dividend, at any frequency, as it is not assured. Each quarter, the Board considers whether the declaration of a dividend is in the best interest of our shareholders and in compliance with applicable laws and agreements. Although we expect to continue to pay dividends to holders of our Class A and Class B common stock, we have no obligation to do so, and our dividend policy may change at any time without notice. Future dividends may also be affected by factors that our Board deems relevant, including our potential future capital requirements for investments, legal risks, changes in federal and state income tax laws, or corporate laws and contractual restrictions such as financial or operating covenants in our debt arrangements. As a result, we may not pay dividends at any rate or at all.

Risks Related to Legal Compliance

If the independent contractors with whom we engage under our alternative owner-operator business model are deemed by law to be employees, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Like many of our competitors, in certain of our service offerings we offer an alternative owner-operator business model, which provides opportunities for small business owners and private entrepreneurs who own tractors to selectively contract with us as independent contractors to transport freight, which they choose, at contracted rates. Were such independent contractors subsequently determined to be our employees, we would be liable under various federal and state laws for a variety of taxes, wages, and other compensation and benefits, including for prior periods, which were not timely paid or remitted. In the U.S., the regulatory and statutory landscape relating to the classification status of independent contractors (or workers) who work in temporary or flexible jobs and who are paid by the task or project is evolving. Some state governments andVarious federal and state regulatory authorities, as well as independent contractors themselves, have asserted that independent contractor drivers in the trucking industry, such as those operating under our owner-operator model,“owner-operator choice model”, are employees rather than independent contractors for a variety of purposes, including income tax withholding, workers’ compensation, wage and hour compensation, unemployment, and other issues. Some statesstate and federal authorities have enacted, or are considering, new laws to make it harder to classify workerworkers as independent contractors and easier for tax and other authorities to reclassify independent contractors as employees.

Additionally, federal legislators, among other things, have soughtMost recently, in October 2022, the U.S. DOL published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and request for comments on its proposal to abolish a safe harbor which allows taxpayers meeting certain criteria to treat individuals asrevise its interpretation of independent contractors if they are following a long-standing, recognized practice and extendcontractor status under the FLSA. The FLSA which establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and other employment standards affecting employees and independent contractors in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments,governments. The DOL’s proposal would rescind the independent contractor regulation adopted by the prior administration in January 2021 and would shift the current analysis of whether a worker is an employee of a business for purposes of the FLSA from a more streamlined “economic reality” test to a more complex “totality-of-the-circumstances” standard which is widely expected to make it more difficult for workers to be classified as independent contractors. contractors under the FLSA. While the final rule may differ from the current proposal, we believe that if the DOL’s current proposal is adopted, it could dramatically limit the circumstances under which we may classify our current independent contractor “owner-operators” as independent contractors under FLSA. Any federal legislation or regulation which significantly limits our ability to classify owner-operators as independent contractors could result in driver shortages or adversely impact our freight capacity which, in turn, could adversely impact our results of operations.
Additionally, courts in certain jurisdictions have recently issued decisions that could result in a greater likelihood that independent contractors will be judicially classified as employees. As a result, we are, from time to time, party to administrative proceedings and litigation, including class actions, alleging violations of the FLSA and other state and federal laws which seek retroactive reclassification of certain current and former independent contractors as employees. An adverse decision in such legal proceedings in an amount that materially exceeds our reserves or federal or state legislation in this area which render the owner-operator model either impractical or extinct thereby curtailing our revenue opportunities could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and profitability.

We operate in a regulated industry, and increased direct and indirect costs of compliance with, or liability for violation of, existing or future regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.
In the U.S., the DOT, FMCSA, and various state agencies exercise broad powers over our business, generally governing matters including authorization to engage in motor carrier service, equipment operation, safety, financial reporting, and leasing arrangements with independent contractors. We are audited periodically by the DOT to ensure that we are in compliance with various safety, HOS, and other rules and regulations. If we were found to be out of compliance, the DOT could restrict or otherwise impact our operations. We also operate in various Canadian provinces (as granted by the Ministries of Transportation and Communication in such provinces) and contract with third-party carriers to transport freight into Mexico. Our failure to comply with any applicable laws, rules, or regulations to which we are subject, whether actual or alleged, could expose us to fines, penalties, or potential litigation liabilities, including costs, settlements, and judgments. Further, these agencies or
14

Table of Contents
governments could institute new laws, rules or regulations, or issue interpretation changes to existing regulations at any time. The short and long-term impacts of changes in legislation or regulations are difficult to predict and could materially and adversely affect our earnings and results of operations.

Our operations are subject to various environmental laws and regulations, the violation of which could result in substantial fines or penalties.
We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations dealing with emissions from our tractor fleet, the handling of hazardous materials, underground fuel storage tanks, and discharge and retention of storm water. We operate in industrial areas where truck terminals and other industrial activities are located and where groundwater or other forms of environmental contamination have occurred. Our operations involve the risks of fuel spillage or seepage, environmental damage, and hazardous waste disposal, among others. Certain of our facilities have waste oil or fuel storage tanks and fueling islands. If a spill or other accident involving hazardous substances occurs, if there are releases of hazardous substances we transport, if soil or groundwater contamination is found at our facilities or results from our operations, or if we are found to be in violation of applicable laws or regulations, we could be liable for cleanup costs, or other damages, or fines, or penalties, any of which could be in material amounts or have a materially adverse effect on our business and operating results.

General Risk Factors

We rely significantly on our information technology systems, a disruption, failure, or security breach of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We rely on information technology throughout all areas of our business and operations to receive, track, accept, and complete customer orders; process financial and non-financial data; compile results of operations for internal and external reporting; and achieve operating efficiencies and growth. Such data and information remain vulnerable to cyber-attacks, cybersecurity breaches, ransomware attacks, hackers, theft, or other unauthorized disclosure which, if successful, could result in the disclosure of confidential customer or commercial data, loss of valuable intellectual property, or system disruptions and subject us to civil liability and fines or penalties, damage our brand and reputation, or otherwise harm our business, any of which could be material. In addition, delayed sales, lower margins, or lost customers resulting from security breaches or network disruptions could materially reduce our revenues, materially increase our expenses, damage our reputation, and have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

Our information technology systems may also be susceptible to interruptions or failures for a variety of reasons including software or hardware failure, user error, power outages, natural disasters, computer viruses, or other types of interruptions. For example, in February 2022 we experiencedour operations were temporarily disrupted due to a firmware defect (which was not related to a cyber event and did not involve a breach of data) relating toin a third-party vendor’s equipment, that interrupted the functioning of ourwhich caused certain critical computer systems and disrupted our operations.applications to not function properly. As a result of this incident, we were required to rely on manual operationsprocesses to book freight, execute loads, and pay carriers for two business days and otherwise execute our business continuity plans. While this disruption resulted in lost revenue and operating profit, it isdid not expected to have a material impact on our annual results of operations. However, a significant disruption or failure in our information technology systemscomputer networks or applications could have a material adverse effect on our business, including operational disruptions, loss of confidential information, external reporting delays or errors, legal claims, or damage to our business reputation.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain key employees, and if we are unable to attract and retain such qualified employees, our business and our ability to execute our business strategies may be materially impaired.
Our future success depends largely on the continued service and efforts of our executive officers and other key management and technical personnel and on our ability to continue to identify, attract, retain, and motivate them. Although we believe we have an experienced and highly qualified management team, the loss of the services of these key personnel could have a significant adverse impact on us and our future profitability. Additionally, we must continue to recruit, develop, and retain skilled and experienced operations, technology, and sales managers if we are to realize our goal of expanding our operations and continuing our growth. Failure to recruit, develop, and retain a core group of service center managers could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

WeAs a result of the nature and scope of our operations, we are subject to various claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, which could adversely affect us.
From time to time,As a result of the nature and scope of our operations, we are involved in various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary courseand exposed to a variety of our business,litigation, including those related to accidents involving our trucks and our brokerage operations, cargo claims, commercial disputes, property damage, and environmental liability, which may not be fully covered by our insurance. Such proceedingslitigation may include claims by current or former employees or third parties, and certain proceedings have beenmay be certified or purport to be class actions. In appropriate cases, we have taken and will seek subrogation from third parties who are responsible for losses or damages that we may become legally obligated to pay to claimants. The

In particular, the defense of trucking accidents is challenging for a variety of reasons, one of which is the recent rise in “nuclear verdicts” - excessive jury awards that surpass what would generally be regarded as reasonable or rational compensation for the injuries or damages suffered, social inflation, societal perceptions of the trucking industry, and ultimately, litigation financing, where third parties are financing litigation in return for a share of settlement proceeds or awarded damages.
Litigation is inherently uncertain, and the costs of defending or maintaining such legal proceedings,litigation, particularly class-action litigation, may be substantial, and in any period, we could experience significant adverse results, which could have a materialan adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. While we purchase insurance coverage at levels we deem adequate, future litigation may exceed our insurance coverage or may not be covered by insurance. In addition, adverse publicity surrounding an allegation or claim that results in litigation may cause significant reputational harm that could have a significant adverse effect on our financial condition or results.
Our long-term sustainability and GHG reduction goals are predicated on large scale customer adoption of intermodal, the operational feasibility and reliability of heavy-duty ZEVs, and the corresponding build out of a national support infrastructure to reasonably and efficiently manufacture, distribute, or store electricity or alternative fuels for ZEVs, none of which can be assured.
Although priority and focus vary, like many public companies, we are under pressure from certain stakeholders, including investors and customers, to establish goals focused on sustainability and, in particular, decarbonization. The Company is also subject to certain federal and state environmental laws and regulations, including those of the U.S. EPA and state environmental agencies which are aggressively focused on the reduction of GHG emissions. Most notably, the CARB is currently developing a medium and heavy-duty zero-emission fleet regulation with the goal of achieving a zero-emission truck and bus California fleet by 2045 everywhere feasible and significantly earlier for certain market segments such as last mile delivery and drayage applications. Other states have signed a multi-state agreement to require 100% sales of zero-emission trucks by 2050. In response, we set the ambitious goal to reduce our per-mile CO2 emissions by 7.5% by 2025, and by 2035, we are aiming to reduce our per-mile CO2 emissions by 60%. A critical component of our multi-pronged plan to reduce our carbon emissions and comply with California’s and other states’ emissions requirements is the deployment of ZEVs in significant numbers in these states together with leveraging our intermodal capability.
As an early adopter of ZEVs, there can be no assurance that we will be successful deploying ZEVs in our operations in significant numbers, that we will be successful converting more over the road freight to intermodal, that the national support infrastructure, including the nation’s electricity grid, for heavy-duty ZEVs will be built-out as expected. Should any of those things fail to occur, we may fail to meet our published sustainability goals, which could result in losing the support of our investors, customers, and other stakeholders; become subject to regulatory enforcement actions; or suffer reputational harm which, in any case, may increase the cost of providing transportation services or adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity.

Our common equity consists of our Class B common stock, entitled to one vote per share, and our 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 Schneider National, Inc. 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. There is no public trading market for our Class A common stock.

Holders of Record

As of February 15, 2022,14, 2023, there was one holder of record of our Class A common stock, the Voting Trust, and there were 50 holders of record of our Class B common stock. Because many of our shares of Class B common stock are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of shareholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of shareholders represented by these record holders.

Dividend Policy

We have paida policy of paying quarterly cash dividends onto holders of our Class A and Class B common stock since our IPO in April 2017, and we intend to continue paying regular quarterly dividends.stock. The declaration and amount of any future dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board and will depend on our financial condition, earnings, legal requirements, certain debt agreements we are then party to, and other factors our Board deems relevant and, therefore, is not assured.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes.

INTRODUCTION

Company Overview

We are a transportation and logistics services company providing a broadmultimodal portfolio of truckload, intermodal, and logistics solutions and operating one of the largest for-hire trucking fleets in North America.solutions. Our diversified portfolio of complementary service offerings combines truckload services with intermodal and logistics offerings, enabling us to serve our customers’ varied transportation needs.

Recent Developments

Acquisition

Acquisitions
On December 31, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of MLS, a privately held truckload carrier based in Celina, OH. MLS is a dedicated carrier that primarily serves the central U.S. and complements our growing dedicated operations. BecauseIn 2022, MLS financial results are reported in dedicated operations as part of our Truckload segment.
On June 7, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition closed on December 31, 2021, MLS did not have an impactof deBoer, which provided us the opportunity to expand our company driver capacity, as well as our tractor and trailer fleet primarily within our dedicated Truckload operations. During the second half of 2022, the Company successfully transitioned equipment and employees from deBoer to Schneider, deBoer operations ceased, and equipment and drivers were deployed primarily within Truckload.
Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions, for additional details on our consolidatedrecent acquisitions.
Adverse Legal Judgment
On April 25, 2022, in connection with the litigation with the former owners of WSL, the Delaware Superior Court entered judgment in favor of the former owners, awarding $40.0 million in compensatory damages plus interest and attorneys’ fees. A final settlement in the amount of $57.0 million was reached and recognized in our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. MLS financial results will be reported in dedicated operations as part of our Truckload segment beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Refer to Note 2,13, Acquisition, Commitments and Contingencies, for additional details.

COVID-19

Schneider continues to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and take steps to mitigate the potential risks it poses.

The health and safety of our associates and owner operators remains our top priority, and we have taken additional precautions to minimize the unnecessary risk of exposure to COVID-19. We have implemented additional safety measures and flexible work arrangements, placed travel limitations on associates where appropriate, and taken physical and cybersecurity measures to ensure our systems are capable of serving our operational needs while providing uninterrupted service to our customers.

COVID-19 has led to labor shortages for Schneider and many of its suppliers and customers. The labor shortages have contributed to supply chain disruptions and delays in the delivery of products and materials. We continue to work with our suppliers to understand delivery timelines and challenges, and plan for delays that may impact our operations.

Many of the products we purchase, as well as our labor and certain other operating costs, have experienced price increases driven by supply chain constraints and other inflationary impacts. We have been successful in finding alternatives where available and in exercising contractual rights as appropriate to limit the overall impact on our results.

Our efforts will continue, and we will take further actions as may be required by federal, state, or local governmental authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our associates, customers, and stakeholders.

Additional information concerning the impact COVID-19 may have to our future business and results of operations is provided in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors”.

Strategy

Our goals areWe seek to deliver a superior portfolio of services that enables our business to grow revenue, profitability, and profitability, drive strongshareholder returns and consistent return on capital, and increase stakeholder valueperform resiliently through economic and freight cycles. We believe our competitive strengths position us to pursue our goals by way of the following strategies:strategy as follows:
Leverage core strengths to drive organic growth and maintain or improveadvance our market position

We intend to drive organic growth through leveraging our existing customer relationships, as well as expanding our customer base. We believe our broad portfolio of services, with different asset intensities, and our North American footprint allow for supply chain alternatives, which enable new and existing customer growth. We also plan to drive revenue growth by increasing

our marketing to customers that seek to outsource their transportation services. Our growth decisions are based on our “Value Triangle,” which represents profitable growth while balancing the needs of our customers, associates, and shareholders. Our integrated technology platform serves as an instrumental factor, which drives profitability as it enables real-time, data-driven decision support science on every load/order and assists our associates in proactively managing our services across our network. Together with our highly incentivized and proactive sales organization, we believe that our platform will continue to provide bettera high level of service and foster organic growth in each of our reportable segments.

Expand capabilities in the specialty equipment and dedicated freight markets and continue growing our asset-light and non-asset businesses

We believe that our specialty freight capabilities position us to grow in the specialty equipment and dedicated freight markets, which have higher barriers to entry, potentially higher margins, and lasting customer relationships. The complexity and time-sensitivity of the loads often require increased collaboration with, and greater understanding of, our customers’ business needs and processes. The transportation of specialty equipment freight requires specially trained drivers with appropriate licenses and special hauling permits, as well as equipment that can handle items with unique requirements in terms of temperature, freight treatment, size, and shape.

As such, there are few carriers that have comparable network scale and capabilities in the specialty equipment market,and dedicated markets, which we believe will allow us to grow profitably in that business.

profitably.
We believe that opportunities identified within our intermodal product offering allow us to profitably grow our services and compete in the intermodal marketplace. As an asset-based provider, we have more control over our equipment, to include containers and chassis, perform most of our own drays, and haveretain strong contractual and differentiated rail relationships. We believe our integrated technology platform will enable us to experience certain benefits of complete end-to-end control, including increased pick–uppick-up and delivery predictability, better visibility, and the ability to source and retain capacity.

Freight brokerage, which is a significant part of our Logistics segment, is a business that is expected to be a driver of growth into the future.future growth. As shippers increasingly consolidate their business with fewer freight brokers, we continue to be well-positioned due to our customer service, innovative technology, andSchneider FreightPower® digital marketplace, an established, dense network of qualified third-party carriers, and access to our sizable trailer network. We believe shippers see the value of working with providers like us that have scale, capacity, and lane density. Brokerage serves as a non-asset innovation hub for Schneider, particularly in the areas of predictive analytics, process automation, and new customer relationship generation.

Continue to improve our operations and margins by leveraging benefits from investments in technology and business transformation

We continue to benefit from our technology and business transformation by improving the effectiveness with which we use data to increase revenue and lower costs. Full visibilityVisibility into each driver’s profile allows us to increase driver satisfaction and retention by matching drivers to loads and routes that better fit their individual needs. We can improve our customer service, retain drivers, lower costs, and generate business by anticipating our customers’ and drivers’ needs and preferences in a dynamic network. We believe the implementation of simple and intuitive customer interfaces will also enable a stronger connection with our customers through increased interaction and an enhanced user experience. Our Schneider FreightPower® online marketplace, for example, digitally connects the benefits of Questour asset based network capabilities with the strength of our trailer network and carrier relationships to service our customers. Additionally, through our investment in MLSI, with which we are collaborating to develop a Transportation Management SystemTMS using MLSI’s SaaS technology, we aim to further complement our technology platform and enable enhanced decision making, resource allocation, and visibility with our supply chain partners. We expect additional margin improvement as we continue to leverage data analytics within our integrated technology platform. Along with our revenue management discipline, the strong foundation we have established with our Quest transformation and integration of technology and systems through leading, third-party providers will allow us to continue to incorporate new technologies and build additional capabilities into the platform over time, maintaining our competitive edge and setting the foundation for future growth.

Allocate capital across businesses to maximize return on capital while pursuing strategic organic and selectively pursue opportunistic acquisitions

inorganic growth opportunities
Our broad portfolio of services provides us with a greater opportunity to allocate capital within our portfolio of services in a manner that maximizes returns across all market cycles and economic conditions. For example, we can efficiently move our equipment between services and regions when we see opportunities to maximize our return on capital. We continually monitor our performance and market conditions to ensure appropriate allocation of capital and resources to grow our businesses, while optimizing returns across reportable segments. Furthermore, our strong balance sheet enablesand financial position enable us to carry out an acquisition strategy that strengthens our overall portfolio. We are positioned to leverage our scalable platform and experienced operations team to acquire high-quality businesses that meet our disciplined selection criteria to enhance our service offerings and broaden our customer base.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal 20212022 compared to fiscal 20202021 is presented below. A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal 20202021 compared to fiscal 20192020 can be found under Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,2021, which was filed with the SEC on February 19, 202118, 2022 and is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, as well as the “Investors” section of our website at www.schneider.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this section of our report, we present the following non-GAAP financial measures: (1) revenues (excluding fuel surcharge), (2) adjusted income from operations, (3) adjusted operating ratio, and (4) adjusted net income. We also provide reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes the use of each of these non-GAAP measures assists investors in understanding our business by (1) removing the impact of items from our operating results that, in our opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance, (2) providing investors with the same information our management uses internally to assess our core operating performance, and (3) presenting comparable financial results between periods. In addition, in the case of revenues (excluding fuel surcharge), we believe the measure is useful to investors because it isolates volume, price, and cost changes directly related to industry demand and the way we operate our business from the external factor of fluctuating fuel prices and the programs we have in place to manage such fluctuations. Fuel-related costs and their impact on our industry are important to our results of operations, but they are often independent of other, more relevant factors affecting our results of operations and our industry.

Although we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors, they have limitations as analytical tools and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies. You should not consider the non-GAAP measures in this report in isolation or as substitutes for, or alternatives to, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. The exclusion of unusual or infrequent items or other adjustments reflected in the non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will not be affected by unusual or infrequent items or by other items similar to such adjustments. Our management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results in addition to using the non-GAAP measures.

2021.
Factors contributing to the increase were as follows:

a $417.7 million increase in fuel surcharge revenues resulting from increased fuel prices in 2022 compared to 2021, as well as fuel surcharge revenues from the acquisition of MLS;
a $679.4$301.7 million increase in Truckload segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) driven by the addition of revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) from the acquisition of MLS, improved revenue per truck per week, and increased dedicated volumes, partially offset by lower network volumes due to driver capacity constraints, reduced network productivity, and moderating market demand;
a $147.5 million increase in Logistics segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) resulting from volume growth within our brokerage business (including our Power Only offering) and incremental port dray revenues from port congestion and supply chain constraints, partially offset by decreased revenue per order within our brokerage business; and
a $144.3 million increase in Intermodal segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) due to an increase in revenue per order and volume growth;
a $168.4 million increase in Intermodal segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) driven by improvement in revenue per order and an increase in orders despite network fluidity constraints;
a $126.5 million increase in fuel surcharge revenues resulting from an increase in fuel prices in 2021 compared to 2020 (for example, based on information reported by the U.S. Department of Energy, the average diesel price per gallon in the U.S. increased by 27% between such periods) and an increase in Intermodal volumes, partially offset by a decrease in Truckload volumes; and
an $83.9 million increase in Truckload segment revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) driven by improved revenue per truck per week, partially offset by lower volumes due to driver capacity constraints.

Enterprise revenues (excluding fuel surcharge) increased $929.4$578.0 million, approximately 22%11%.

Enterprise Income from Operations and Operating Ratio

Enterprise income from operations increased $247.0$66.7 million, approximately 86%12%, in the year ended December 31, 20212022 compared to 2020,2021, primarily due to increasesan increase in revenue per order in Intermodal, revenue per truck per week in Truckload, revenue per order in Intermodal, and net revenue per order in Logistics largely driven by strong freight market conditions andin the first half of 2022, in addition to effective network and revenue management. A $70.6net gain on sale of $50.9 million improvement in equipment dispositions and a $26.3 million favorable change relatedconnection with the sale of our Canadian facility due to a 2020 adverse tax ruling that was overturnedchange in 2021approach to servicing Canada also contributed to improved income from operations.the increase. Volumes grew in dedicated Truckload with the acquisition of MLS and new business start-ups, while our brokerage business experienced an 8% increase in order volume driven by leveraging our Schneider FreightPower® digital platform and the expansion of our Power Only offering. The above factors were partially offset by an increase in driverdriver-related costs resulting from additionalpay increases, costs incurred to attract and retain an increased number of company drivers in 2022; higher rail purchased transportation costs within Intermodal; a reduction$57.0 million adverse settlement related to a lawsuit with former owners of WSL; fewer equipment sales resulting in Truckload freight volumeslower gains; and higher maintenance costs due to industry-wide capacity constraints, and higher rail costs.

inflationary cost pressures.
Adjusted income from operations increased $232.2$84.3 million, approximately 77%16%.

Enterprise operating ratio (operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenues) increased on a GAAP basis but improved on both a GAAP andan adjusted basis when compared to the same period of 2020.in 2021. Among other factors, our operating ratio can be negatively impacted by changes in portfolio mix when our higher operating ratio, less asset-focused Logistics segment grows faster than our lower operating ratio, capital-intensive Truckload segment.

Enterprise Operating Expenses

Key operating expense fluctuations are described below.

Purchased transportation increased $659.9$245.2 million, or 33%9%, year over year, primarily resulting from increased third party carrier costs duemainly related to higher purchased transportation costs per order and volume growth within Logistics, as well as higher rail purchased transportation resulting from an increase in both rail costs and orders in Intermodal. Third-party carrier costs also increased due to volume growth and purchased transportation costs recorded related to the acquisition of MLS, partially offset by lower purchased transportation costs per order within Logistics.
Salaries, wages, and benefits increased $103.0$226.5 million, or 10%20%, year over year, driven by increases inlargely due to higher driver pay within Truckload and Intermodal driver pay, Logistics salaries and wages, performance-based incentive compensation, and healthcare costs. The increases in driver pay were largely the result ofresulting from pay increases and actions taken to address driver capacity constraints, while the increase in Logistics salaries and wages was primarily dueaddition to an increase in headcount and sales commissions. Healthcare costs increased 17% when compared to the prior year mainly resulting fromcompany drivers.

A significant portion of fuel costs are recovered through our fuel surcharge programs.
Depreciation and amortization increased $5.7$53.8 million, or 2%18%, year over year, primarilylargely due to the acquisition of MLS, which accounted for nearly half of the increase. The remaining increase was driven by an increase in internal use software amortization.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary uses of cash are working capital requirements, capital expenditures, dividend payments, and debt service requirements. Additionally, we may use cash for acquisitions and other investing and financing activities. Working capital is required principally to ensure we are able to run the business and have sufficient funds to satisfy maturing short-term debt and operational expenses. Our capital expenditures consist primarily of transportation equipment and information technology.

Historically, our primary source of liquidity has been cash flow from operations. In addition, we have a $250.0 million revolving credit facility and a $150.0 million accounts receivable facility, for which our combined available capacity as of December 31, 20212022 was $325.8$322.8 million. We anticipate that cash generated from operations, together with amounts available under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to meet our requirements for the foreseeable future. To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that we will obtain these funds through additional borrowings, equity offerings, or a combination of these potential sources of liquidity. Our ability to fund future operating expenses and capital expenditures, as well as our ability to meet future debt service obligations or refinance our indebtedness, will depend on our future operating performance, which will be affected by general economic, financial, and other factors beyond our control.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities increased $307.7 million, approximately 97%, during 2021 compared to 2020. The increase in cash used was primarily driven by the Company’s acquisition of 100% of the outstanding equity of MLS for $271.3 million on December 31, 2021, as well as a $34.0 million increase in net capital expenditures.

Other Considerations That Could Affect Our Results, Liquidity, and Capital Resources

Investment in TuSimple

On January 12, 2021, the Company purchased a $5.0 million non-controlling interest in TuSimple. Upon completion of its initial public offering in April 2021, our investment in TuSimple was converted into Class A common shares and is being accounted for under ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities, with subsequent changes in share price recorded within other expense (income)—net on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. In the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized a pre-tax net gain of $7.7 million on its investment in TuSimple. Due to the volatility of the global markets and the potential for high volatility of public equity prices of technology-related companies, we expect the value of our investment to fluctuate which could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.

COVID-19

While the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic creates potential liquidity risks, we have been able to fund our liquidity needs to date. We believe we are in a strong liquidity position with a cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balance of $294.1 million and $325.8 million of unused credit capacity as of December 31, 2021. Our outstanding debt at the end of 2021 was $270.3 million, of which $61.4 million is short-term in nature. We are compliant with all financial covenants under our credit agreements and do not anticipate the need to seek additional capital as a result of COVID-19.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Contractual Obligations

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we had contractual obligations related to our long-term debt of $265.0$205.0 million and $22.6$14.2 million for principal borrowings and interest, respectively, which become due through 2025. See Note 7, Debt and Credit Facilities, for additional information regarding our debt obligations. We also have contractual obligations for finance and operating leases and purchase commitments related to agreements to purchase transportation equipment. See Note 8, Leases, and Note 14,13, Commitments and Contingencies, respectively, for additional information regarding our lease and purchase commitment obligations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires that management make estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Therefore, these estimates and assumptions affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and associated disclosures of contingent liabilities. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, using historical experience, consultation with third parties, and other methods considered reasonable in the particular circumstances. Nevertheless, actual results may differ significantly from our estimates. Any effects on our business, financial position, or results of operations resulting from revisions to these estimates are recognized in the accounting period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known.

The estimates discussed below include the financial statement elements that are either the most judgmental or involve the selection or application of alternative accounting policies and are material to our consolidated financial statements. Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board and with our independent registered public accounting firm.

Claims Accruals

Reserves are established based on estimated or expected losses for claims. The primary claims arising for the Company 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 self-insurance levels for these various areas

of risk and have established reserves to cover self-insured liabilities. The amounts of self-insurance change from time to time based on measurement dates, policy expiration dates, policy exhaustion, and claim type. We also maintain insurance to cover liabilities in excess of the self-insurance amounts to limit our exposure to catastrophic claim costs or damages. We are substantially self-insured for loss of and damage to our owned and leased equipment. The current claims settlement environment within the industry has resulted in excess insurance carriers decreasing coverage and increasing premiums. As a result of this trend, we may experience increases in our insurance and claims expense.

Our reserves represent accruals for the estimated self-insured and reinsured portions of pending claims, including adverse development of known claims, as well as incurred but not reported claims. Our estimates require judgments concerning the nature and severity of the claim, historical trends, advice from third-party administrators and insurers, consultation with actuarial experts, the specific facts of individual cases, the jurisdictions involved, estimates of future claims development, and the legal and other costs to settle or defend the claims. The actual cost to settle our self-insured claim liabilities can differ from our reserve estimates because of a number of uncertainties, including the inherent difficulty in estimating the severity of a claim and the potential amount to defend and settle a claim. At December 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, we had an accrual of $158.3$164.9 million and $144.2$158.3 million, respectively, for estimated claims net of reinsurance receivables.

We have significant exposure to fluctuations in the number and severity of claims. If there is an increase in the frequency and/or severity of claims, we are required to accrue or pay additional amounts if the claims prove to be more severe than originally assessed or exceed the limits of our insurance coverage, and our profitability would be adversely affected. In addition to estimates within our self-insured retention, we also must make judgments concerning our coverage limits. If any claim were to exceed our coverage limits, we would have to accrue for the excess amount. Our critical estimates include evaluating whether a claim may exceed such limits and, if so, by how much. Currently, we are not aware of any such claims. If one or more claims were to exceed our effective coverage limits, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

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 or outside counsel, as well as legal, economic, and regulatory factors. Our insurance and claims personnel work directly with representatives from the insurance companies to provide updated estimates of the potential loss associated with each tendered claim. The ultimate cost of a claim is developed over time as additional information regarding the nature, timing, and extent of damages claimed becomes available.

Goodwill

To expand our business offerings, we have, on occasion, acquired other companies. In a business combination, the consideration is first assigned to identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values, with any excess recorded as goodwill. Determining fair value requires significant estimates and assumptions based on an evaluation of a number of factors, such as marketplace participants, history, future expansion and profitability expectations, amount and timing of future cash flows, and the discount rate applied to the cash flows. Goodwill is not amortized but is assessed for impairment at least annually and more frequently if a triggering event indicates that impairment may exist.

Our goodwill balance at December 31, 2022 and 2021 and 2020 was $240.5$228.2 million and $128.1$240.5 million, respectively. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually at the reporting unit level, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate the carrying value is not recoverable. A reporting unit can be a segment or business within a segment. When reviewing goodwill for impairment, we consider the amount of excess fair value over the carrying value of each reporting unit, the period of time since a reporting unit’s last quantitative test, the extent a reorganization or disposition changes the composition of one or more of our reporting units, and other factors to determine whether or not to first perform a qualitative test. When performing a qualitative test, we assess numerous factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units is less than their respective carrying values. Examples of qualitative factors that are assessed include our share price, financial performance, market and competitive factors in our industry, and other events specific to our reporting units. If we conclude that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we perform a quantitative impairment test. In the quantitative impairment evaluation, the carrying value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, is compared with its fair value. We base our fair value estimation on a valuation, which uses a combination of (1) an income approach based on the present value of estimated future cash flows and (2) a market approachapproaches based on market price dataEBITDA valuation multiples of shares of our companycomparable companies and others in our industry to value our reporting units.transactions. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recorded equal to that excess. Significant judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes and to estimate future cash flows. Assumptions used in impairment evaluations, such as forecasted growth rates and our cost of capital, are based on the best available market information and are consistent with our internal forecasts and operating plans. These assumptions could be adversely impacted by certain risks discussed earlier in this document.

The Company acquired MLS on December 31, 2021 and deBoer on June 7, 2022. As a result of these acquisitions, the Company recorded additions to our goodwill of $104.3 million and $6.1 million, respectively. 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.
We completed the required annual goodwill impairment assessment for allour three of our reporting units with goodwill as of October 31, 2021. A qualitative goodwill assessment was performed for2022 using quantitative assessments. The fair values of our VTL/Dedicated Services reporting unit, and quantitative assessments were performed for our Import/Export and Asia reporting units.units were substantially in excess of their respective carrying value. The fair value of the Import/Exportour MLS reporting unit was significantly in excess ofexceeded its carrying value while our Asiaby less than 5%.

There were no triggering events identified from the date of our assessment through December 31, 20212022 that would require an update to our annual impairment test. If future operating performance of our VTL/Dedicated Services, MLS, or Import/Export reporting units is below our expectations, or there are changes to forecasted growth rates or our cost of capital, a decline in the fair value of the reporting units could result, and we may be required to record a goodwill impairment charge. See Note 6, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, for more information.

Additionally, as a result of the Company’s acquisition of MLS on December 31, 2021, $122.7 million of goodwill was recorded representing the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. See Note 2, Acquisition, for more information.

Business Combinations

We record assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination under the purchase method of accounting where consideration is first assigned to identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values, with any excess recorded as goodwill. During the measurement period, which is up to one year from the acquisition date, we may adjust provisional amounts that were recognized at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.

Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires significant judgment, including the selection of valuation methodologies such as the income, sales comparison, and market approaches.methodologies.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from changes in certain commodity prices, equity prices, and inflation. All of these market risks arise in the normal course of business, as we do not engage in speculative trading activities. We have established policies, procedures, and internal processes governing our management of market risk and the use of financial instruments to manage our exposure to such risk.

Commodity Risk

We have commodity exposure with respect to fuel used in company-owned tractors. Increases in fuel prices will raise our operating costs, even after applying fuel surcharge revenues. Historically, we have been able to recover a majority of fuel price increases from our customers in the form of fuel surcharges. The average diesel price per gallon in the U.S., as reported by the Department of Energy, increased from an average of $2.56 per gallon for fiscal year 2020 to an average of $3.26 per gallon for fiscal year 2021.2021 to $4.96 per gallon for fiscal year 2022. We cannot predict the extent or speed of potential changes in fuel prices in the future, the degree to which the lag effect of our fuel surcharge programs will impact us as a result of the timing and magnitude of such changes, or the extent to which effective fuel surcharges can be maintained and collected to offset future increases. We generally have not used derivative financial instruments to hedge our fuel price exposure in the past but continue to evaluate this possibility.

Equity Price Risk

Our equity investment in TuSimple is susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties in the future market value, and a fluctuation in TuSimple’s share price could have an adverse impact on the fair value of our investment and, therefore, our results of operations. At December 31, 2021 the fair value of our investment in TuSimple was $12.7 million. A hypothetical 10% decrease in TuSimple’s share price would reduce the value of our equity investment by approximately $1.3 million.

Inflation Risk

Inflation can have an unfavorable impact on our operating costs, and a prolonged period of inflation could cause interest rates, fuel, wages, healthcare and other employee benefits, revenuetransportation equipment and related maintenance, insurance premiums, and other costs to increase, which would adversely affect our results of operations unless freight rates correspondingly increase. However,During 2022, the U.S. experienced rising inflation, with levels reaching a 40-year high, and as a result, we do not believe that inflation has had a material effect onhave experienced increases in our business, financial condition, or resultsfuel, transportation equipment, labor and third-party capacity, tire, and maintenance costs. To date, we have been able to recover the majority of operations. Ifthose price increases from our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures,customers; however, we may not be able to fully offset suchcontinue to recover higher costs through price increases.if inflationary pressures persist. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Claims Accruals — Refer to Note 1 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company is self-insured for various claims, which primarily relate to accident-related claims for personal injury, collision, and comprehensive compensation, along with workers’workers' compensation. Claims accruals represent accruals for pending claims, including adverse development of known claims, as well as incurred but not reported claims. The claims accruals are based on estimated or expected losses for claims considering the nature and severity of each claim, historical trends, advice from third-party administrators and insurers, consultation with actuarial experts, the specific facts of individual cases, the jurisdictions involved for each case, estimates of future claims development, the fluctuations in the number and severity of claims, and the legal and other costs to settle or defend the claims. At December 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, the Company had an accrual of $158.3$164.9 million and $144.2$158.3 million, respectively, for estimated claims net of reinsurance receivables.

Table of Contents
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the claims accruals included the following, among others:

We tested the effectiveness of internal controls related to claims accruals, including those over the projected development of known claims and incurred but not reported claims.
We evaluated the methods and assumptions used by management to estimate claims accruals by:
Testing the underlying data that served as the basis for the actuarial analysis, including reconciling the claims data to the Company’s actuarial analysis, testing the annual exposure data, and testing current year claims and payment data.
Comparing management’s selected claims accrual estimates to the range provided by their third-party actuary and to historical trends.
With the assistance of our actuarial specialists, we developed an independent range of estimates of the claims accruals, utilizing loss development factors from the Company’s historical data and industry claim development factors, and compared our estimated range to management’s recorded reserve.
Goodwill Valuation – Midwest Logistics Systems Reporting Unit — Refer to Note 6 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company’s evaluation of goodwill for potential impairment involves comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of (1) an income approach based on the present value of estimated future cash flows and (2) market approaches based on Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization (“EBITDA”) valuation multiples of comparable companies and transactions. Determining fair value requires significant estimates and assumptions based on an evaluation of a number of factors, such as marketplace participants, history, future expansion and profitability expectations, amount and timing of future cash flows, and the discount rate applied to the cash flows. Changes in these estimates, assumptions or judgments could have significant impacts in determining the fair value of reporting units, the amount of any goodwill impairment charge, or both. The goodwill balance was $228.2 million as of December 31, 2022, of which $104.3 million related to the Midwest Logistics Systems (“MLS”) reporting unit. As of October 31, 2022 (the date for the Company’s annual quantitative test for goodwill impairment), the fair value of MLS exceeded its carrying value by less than 5% and, therefore, no impairment was recognized.
The subjectivity of management’s estimates and assumptions related to the discount rate, forecasts of future revenues and profitability, and EBITDA valuation multiples requires a high degree of auditor judgement and an increased extent of effort. This includes the need to involve our fair value specialists when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the selection of the discount rate, forecasts of future revenues and profitability, and EBITDA valuation multiples for the MLS reporting unit included the following, among others:

We tested the effectiveness of internal controls over management’s goodwill impairment evaluation, including those over the selection of the discount rate, forecasts of future revenues and profitability and EBITDA valuation multiples.

We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasts for both revenue and profitability by comparing the forecasts to (1) historical results, (2) internal communications to the Board of Directors, (3) forecasted information in industry reports, and evaluated the reasonableness of near-term revenue growth by obtaining signed customer contracts.
With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate by (1) testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount rate, (2) testing the mathematical accuracy of the calculations, and (3) developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate selected by management.
With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the EBITDA valuation multiples selected by management, which included assessing the appropriateness of the guideline companies and transactions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Schneider National, Inc.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Schneider National, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021,2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021,2022, based on criteria established in IInternalnternal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, of the Company and our report dated February 18, 2022,17, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Midwest Logistics Systems, Ltd., which was acquired on December 31, 2021, and whose financial statements constitute approximately 7.4% of total assets of the Company’s consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2021. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Midwest Logistics Systems, Ltd.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’sManagement's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

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 United States,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
As of January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which is codified in ASC 326, for our trade account receivable and allowance, as well as our leases.

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’sthird-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 marketnet realizable value using specific identification or average cost. The following table shows the components of our inventory balances as of the dates shown.

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.

43

Table of Contents
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, 20212022 and 2020.2021. 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:
20212022
Tractors3 - 8 years
Trailing equipment6 - 20 years
Other transportation equipment4 - 5 years
Buildings and improvements5 - 25 years
Other property3 - 10 years

Salvage values, when applicable, generally don’t exceedrange 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 expensesexpenses—net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For the years endingended December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019,2020, we recognized $85.7 million of net gains, $63.9 million of net gains, and $6.7 million of net losses and $1.8 million of net gains 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 gains and losses on the sale of property and equipment for the yearsyear ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 werewas a net lossesloss of $0.5 million and $1.5 million related to the shutdown of our FTFM service offering, respectively.offering.

Assets Held for Sale

Assets held for sale consist of revenuetransportation 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 aswhen 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 expensesexpenses—net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. NoWe recorded no significant impairment losses were recorded for the year ended December 31, 2021. For the years ended December 31, 20202022, or 2021, and 2019, total impairment losses were $4.7 million and $42.4 million, respectively. Impairmentin losses for the year ended December 31, 2019 included a $28.1 million impairment related to the shutdown of our FTFM service offering and an $11.5 million impairment related to a bulk sale of tractors.

Internal Use Software and Cloud Computing Arrangements

We capitalize certain costs incurred to acquire, develop, or modify software to meet the company’sCompany’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, $15.4 million, and $16.1$15.4 million of amortization expense related to internal use software during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, and 2019, 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 expensesexpenses—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 yearyears ended December 31, 2021.2022, and 2021, respectively. There was no amortization expense related to CCA implementation costs during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Goodwill

Table of Contents

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 an income approach and a market approach.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, 2020, and 2019,2020, 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-notmore 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-notmore 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.

Table of Contents
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. We grant restricted stock units,These awards have historically consisted of restricted shares, performance-based restricted stock units,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 revenuetransportation 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
46

Table of Contents
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, 20212022 and 2020,2021, we had an accrual of $158.3$164.9 million and $144.2$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, 20212022 and 2020,2021, we had an aggregate prepaid insurance asset of $11.0$9.2 million and $10.6$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 Issued but Not YetRecently Adopted

In November 2021, the FASB issuedWe adopted ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance to increase, which increases the transparency of government assistance. This standard requires business entitiesbusinesses to disclose information about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution model by analogy (for example, IFRSInternational Financial Reporting Standards guidance in IASInternational 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. ASU 2021-10 is effective for us beginning with our December 31, 2022 financial statements, with early adoption permitted. We do not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted

We adopted ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which reduces complexity in accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifying and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application among reporting entities, as of January 1, 2021. We used the modified retrospective or prospective approach, which was based on the specific amendment implemented, when adopting this standard. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

2. ACQUISITIONACQUISITIONS

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, (“Acquisition Date”), 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 (the “Acquisition”).business. MLS is a premier dedicated carrier in the central U.S. that we believe complements our growing dedicated operations. As of December 31, 2021, MLS had approximately 1,000 associates and operated 900 tractors and 3,600 trailers across 30 owned or leased locations in the U.S.

The aggregate purchase price of the Acquisitionacquisition was approximately $274.5$268.8 million inclusive of certain cash and$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.acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the purchase price:

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.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 reportingreportable 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.

Certain amounts recorded in connection with the Acquisition are still considered preliminary as we continue to gather the necessary information to finalize our fair value estimates and provisional amounts. Provisional amounts include items related to working capital adjustments, intangibles, indemnification assets and liabilities, and leases..

During the measurement period, which is up to one year from the Acquisition Date, we may adjust provisional amounts that were recognized at the Acquisition Date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the Acquisition Date. We anticipate finalizing the determination of fair value by December 31, 2022.

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.

Table of Contents
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.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 2021.2022 and 2021, respectively. There was no revenue recorded in 2020 or 2019 for freight movements in exchange for non-monetary consideration.
48

Table of Contents
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.

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.

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. During 2021 we did not measure any non-financial assets at fair value. The table below sets forth the Company’s non-financial assets that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during 2020.2022.

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, 20212022 and 2020,2021, we had accumulated goodwill impairment charges of $53.2 million, and $42.6 million, respectively, which consisted of $34.6 million and $18.6 million in our Truckload reporting segment and Other, as of December 31, 2021, and $34.6 million and $8.0 million in our Truckload reporting segment and Other, as of December 31, 2020.

respectively.
Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually using the discounted cash flow, and 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.

InDuring the fourth quarter of 2022 and 2021, annual impairment tests were performed on all 3three of our reporting units with goodwill as of October 31, 2021, 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.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,

OurOn November 4, 2022, we entered into a new agreement (the “2022 Credit AgreementFacility”) 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 August 2023.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 this agreementeither of these agreements as of December 31, 20212022 or 2020.2021. Standby letters of credit under this agreementthese agreements amounted to $0.1 million and $3.9 million at bothon December 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020,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, 20212022 or 2020.2021. At December 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, 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.

Table of Contents
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, 2021,2022, 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.

53

Table of Contents
For our real estate leases, we have elected to apply the recognition requirement to leases of twelve months or less; therefore, an operatinga 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 the operating 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.

OperatingRight-of-use lease right-of-use assets and operating lease 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.

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, 2020, and 2019.2020. 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.

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, 20212022 was $47.3$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, 2021,2022, our lease payments past due were $3.6$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.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the CARES Act into U.S. federal law aimed at providing emergency assistance and health care for individuals, families, and businesses affected by COVID-19 and generally supporting the U.S. economy. The CARES Act included a provision for the deferment of the employer portion of social security taxes through December 31, 2020, among other things, which the Company elected. As of December 31, 2021, the deferred employer social security taxes have been paid, which totaled $30.7 million as of December 31, 2020.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

Our unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 20212022 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 and 2020 were $2.7$3.1 million and $2.4$2.7 million, respectively. We expect no significant increases or decreases for unrecognized tax benefits during the twelve months immediately following the December 31, 20212022 reporting date.

As of December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019,2020, 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 2018, 2019, 2020, and 20202021 are open for examination by the IRS, and various years are open for examination by state and foreign tax authorities. In October 2021,2022, the statute for 20172018 expired. State and foreign jurisdictional statutes of limitations generally range from three to four years.

Carryforwards

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we had $162.1$148.5 million of state net operating loss carryforwards which are subject to expiration from 20222023 to 2042.2043, 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, 20212022 were $9.3$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, 2021,2022, we carried a total valuation allowance of $2.5$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 Schneider National, Inc. 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, 2020, and 2019,2020, the Company declared cash dividends totaling $0.32, $0.28, $2.26, and $0.24$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 2022,2023, our Board declared a quarterly cash dividend for the first fiscal quarter of 20222023 in the amount of $0.08$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 11, 202210, 2023 and is expected to be paid on April 8, 2022.10, 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 $10.1 million in 2021, 2020, and 2019, 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 $11.8 million in 2021, 2020, and 2019, 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 consisthave historically consisted of restricted shares, restricted stock units (“RSUs”),RSUs, performance-based restricted shares (“performance shares”), performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”),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 will beis applied to performance share and PSU achievement based on relative total shareholder return (“rTSR”)rTSR against a selected peer grouppeers 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.

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.

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% - 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% - 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.

We estimated the grant date fair value of the 2021 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 the peer grouppeers 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 the grant taking into consideration the expected term of the awards. NaNNo expected dividend yield was used as the award agreement assumes any dividends distributed during the performance period are reinvested.

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.

14. 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 results of operations.

In December 2020, the Company filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and in August 2021, the Seventh Circuit reversed the District Court and ruled in the Company’s favor on all matters. In November 2021, after receiving confirmation from the IRS of the refund amount, the Company concluded that recovery was probable and recorded a $13.5 million refund receivable for such taxes and related interest.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING

We have 3three reportable segments – Truckload, Intermodal, and Logistics – which are based primarily on the services each segment provides.

As of December 31, 2018,2020, our operating segments within the Truckload reportable segment were VTL FTFM, and Bulk. On July 29, 2019Beginning in 2022, the Board approvedoperating results of MLS, a structured shutdownstandalone operating segment, were aggregated into the Truckload reportable segment, resulting in a total of our FTFM service offering, which wasthree operating segments. The operating results of deBoer are also included within our FTFM operating segment. As the shutdown of the FTFM service offering is complete, there are only 2 remaining operating segments within the Truckload reportable segment VTLfrom the date of acquisition through when their operations ceased in July and Bulk, thattheir 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 ownedCompany-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 2two 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. We also haveThrough November of 2022 and prior to executing a management buyout agreement to sell that business, the Company had operations in Asia that meetmet 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.

The following tables summarize our segment information. Inter-segment revenues were immaterial for all segments, with the exception of Other, which included revenues from insurance premiums charged to other segments for workers’ compensation, auto, and other types of insurance. Inter-segment revenues included in Other revenues below were $73.5 million, $62.4 million, $62.6 million, and $87.1$62.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019,2020, respectively.

regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

Because of its inherent limitation, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013 Framework).
