Description: ARCB ArcBest November 12, 2025
ArcBest Corp. (NASDAQ:ARCB) operates an integrated logistics network that delivers ground, air, and ocean freight worldwide through two distinct business models: an Asset-Based segment that runs a nationwide less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier serving a broad mix of commodities, and an Asset-Light segment that functions as a brokerage and value-added logistics provider, offering expedited, temperature-controlled, intermodal, warehousing, and final-mile services as well as international freight solutions.
Key quantitative touchpoints (as of FY 2023) include total revenue of roughly $2.4 billion, an adjusted EBITDA margin near 9 %, and a truckload utilization rate of about 84 %, which is modestly above the industry average of 80 % and reflects ongoing capacity tightening in the U.S. freight market. The business is sensitive to macro-level drivers such as e-commerce volume growth (projected to rise 10-12 % YoY) and fuel price volatility, both of which directly impact pricing power and cost structure in the LTL and brokerage segments.
