Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1 — Introduction and Basis of Presentation

Certain acronyms and terms used throughout this Quarterly Report are specific to the Company, commonly used in the trucking industry, or are otherwise frequently used throughout this document. Definitions for these acronyms and terms are provided in the "Glossary of Terms," available in the front of this document.

Description of Business

Knight-Swift is a transportation solutions provider, headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona. During the first half of 2022, the Company operated an average of 18,010 tractors (comprised of 16,165 company tractors and 1,845 independent contractor tractors) and 72,111 trailers within the Truckload segment and leasing activities within the non-reportable segments. The LTL segment operated an average of 3,110 tractors and 8,352 trailers. Additionally, the Intermodal segment operated an average of 603 tractors and 11,259 intermodal containers. As of June 30, 2022, the Company's four reportable segments were Truckload, LTL, Logistics, and Intermodal.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in this Quarterly Report include the accounts of Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in Knight-Swift's 2021 Annual Report. In management's opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP and include all adjustments necessary (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) for the fair statement of the periods presented.

With respect to transactional/durational data, references to years pertain to calendar years. Similarly, references to quarters pertain to calendar quarters.

Changes in Presentation

Beginning in the second quarter of 2022, the Company separately disclosed "Loss (gain) on equity securities" in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. Accordingly, the amounts presented in the Company's first half 2021 condensed consolidated statement of cash flows were reclassified from "Other adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities" to "Loss (gain) on equity securities" to align with the current year presentation.

2021 Acquisitions

The Company acquired the following entities in 2021:

•100.0% of MME on December 6, 2021. The results are included within the LTL segment.

•100.0% of ACT on July 5, 2021. The results are included within the LTL segment.

•100.0% of UTXL on June 1, 2021. The results are included within the Logistics segment.

•79.44% of Eleos on February 1, 2021. The results are included within the non-reportable segments. The noncontrolling interest is presented as a separate component of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note regarding comparability: In accordance with the accounting treatment applicable to the transactions, the Company's consolidated results, as reported, do not include the operating results of its ownership interest in the acquired entities prior to the respective acquisition dates. Accordingly, comparisons between the Company's current and prior period results may not be meaningful.

Additional information regarding the Company's recent acquisitions is included in Note 3.

Seasonality

In the truckload transportation industry, results of operations generally follow a seasonal pattern. Freight volumes in the first quarter are typically lower due to less consumer demand, customers reducing shipments following the holiday season, and inclement weather, while operating expenses generally increase. Tractor productivity of the Company's Truckload fleet, third-party carriers, and independent contractors decreases during the winter months due to decreased fuel efficiency, increased cold weather-related equipment maintenance and repairs, and increased insurance claims and costs attributed to higher accident frequency from harsh weather. These factors typically lead to lower operating profitability, as compared to other parts of the year. Additionally, beginning in the latter half of the third quarter and continuing into the fourth quarter, the Company typically experiences surges pertaining to holiday shopping trends toward delivery of gifts purchased over the Internet, as well as the length of the holiday season (consumer shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas). However, as the Company continues to diversify its business through expansion into the LTL industry, warehousing, and other activities, seasonal volatility is becoming more tempered. Additionally, macroeconomic trends and cyclical changes in the trucking industry, including imbalances in supply and demand, can override the seasonality faced in the industry.

Note 3 — Acquisitions

Developments during the six months ended June 30, 2022 related to the Company's 2021 acquisitions are discussed below.

MME

On December 6, 2021, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired 100.0% of Bismarck, North Dakota-based MME. MME provides LTL, full truckload, and specialized and other logistics transportation services to a diverse customer base in its service territory in the upper Midwestern and great Northwestern regions of the US.

During the measurement period, the net working capital adjustment increased by $1.3 million based on the actual versus estimated net working capital adjustment as of the transaction date. This adjustment resulted in increasing the total purchase price consideration to $165.7 million. The Company also reduced the deferred tax liabilities on MME's opening balance sheet by $2.2 million based on valuation of the Company's intangible assets. These measurement period adjustments resulted in a $3.5 million increase in goodwill related to the MME acquisition during the first quarter of 2022.

Eleos

On February 1, 2021, pursuant to a membership interest purchase agreement ("MIPA"), the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired 79.44% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Eleos Technologies, LLC ("Eleos"), a Greenville, South Carolina-based software provider, specializing in mobile driving platforms, which complement the Company's suite of services. The purchase price was allocated based on estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation was open for adjustments through the end of the measurement period, which closed one year from the February 1, 2021 acquisition date.

Purchase Price Allocations

Unless otherwise stated, the purchase price allocations for the above acquisitions are preliminary and have been allocated based on estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, and among other things may be pending the completion of the valuation of acquired tangible assets, an independent valuation of certain acquired intangible assets, assessment of lease agreements, assessment of certain liabilities, the calculation of deferred taxes based upon the underlying tax basis of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and assessment of other tax related items as applicable. As the Company obtains more information, the preliminary purchase price allocations disclosed above are subject to change. Any future adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocations, including changes within identifiable intangible assets or estimation uncertainty impacted by market conditions, may impact future net earnings. The purchase price allocation adjustments can be made through the end of the measurement periods, which is not to exceed one year from the respective acquisition dates.

Note 4 — Income Taxes

Effective Tax Rate — The quarter-to-date June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 effective tax rates were 24.7% and 25.3%, respectively. The year-to-date June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 effective tax rates were 24.8% and 25.5%, respectively.

Valuation Allowance — The Company has not established a valuation allowance as it has been determined that, based upon available evidence, a valuation allowance is not required. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits — Management believes it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $0.3 million in unrecognized tax benefits relating to federal deductions may be necessary within the next twelve months.

Interest and Penalties — Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $0.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Tax Examinations — Certain of the Company's subsidiaries are currently under examination by Federal and various state jurisdictions for tax years ranging from 2014 to 2019. At the completion of these examinations, management does not expect any adjustments that would have a material impact on the Company's effective tax rate. Years subsequent to 2017 remain subject to examination.

Note 5 — Accounts Receivable Securitization

As of June 30, 2022, the Company's eligible receivables related to the 2021 RSA generally have high credit quality, as determined by the obligor's corporate credit rating.

The 2021 RSA is subject to fees, various affirmative and negative covenants, representations and warranties, and default and termination provisions customary for facilities of this type. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2022. Collections on the underlying receivables by the Company are held for the benefit of SRCII and the various purchasers and are unavailable to satisfy claims of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Note 9 — Contingencies and Legal Proceedings

Legal Proceedings

Information is provided below regarding the nature, status, and contingent loss amounts, if any, associated with the Company's pending legal matters. There are inherent uncertainties in these legal matters, some of which are beyond management's control, making the ultimate outcomes difficult to predict. Moreover, management's views and estimates related to these matters may change in the future, as new events and circumstances arise and the matters continue to develop.

The Company has made accruals with respect to its legal matters where appropriate, which are included in "Accrued liabilities" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has recorded an aggregate accrual of approximately $15.9 million, relating to the Company's outstanding legal proceedings as of June 30, 2022.

Based on management's present knowledge of the facts and (in certain cases) advice of outside counsel, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending matters are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's overall financial position, operating results, or cash flows after taking into account any existing accruals. However, actual outcomes could be material to the Company's financial position, operating results, or cash flows for any particular period.

Executive Summary

Company Overview

Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. is one of North America's largest and most diversified freight transportation companies, providing multiple full truckload, LTL, intermodal, and other complementary services. Our objective is to operate our business with industry-leading margins and continued organic growth and growth through acquisitions while providing safe, high-quality, cost-effective solutions for our customers. Knight-Swift uses a nationwide network of business units and terminals in the US and Mexico to serve customers throughout North America. In addition to operating the country's largest truckload fleet, Knight-Swift also contracts with third-party equipment providers to provide a broad range of transportation services to our customers while creating quality driving jobs for our driving associates and successful business opportunities for independent contractors. Our four reportable segments are Truckload, LTL, Logistics, and Intermodal. Additionally, we have various non-reportable segments.

Key Financial Highlights — First Half of 2022

During the first half of 2022, each reportable segment achieved meaningful revenue growth while improving margins, leading to consolidated revenue growth of 42.5%, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge. Consolidated operating income improved 76.5% to $623.9 million in the first half of 2022, as compared to the same period last year. Net income attributable to Knight-Swift increased by 51.4% to $427.8 million.

•Truckload — 81.9% operating ratio during the first half of 2022. The Adjusted Operating Ratio1 improved by 270 basis points to 78.6% for the first half of 2022, supported by a 9.6% increase in revenue, excluding fuel surcharge and intersegment transactions, compared to the same period last year.

•LTL — 87.0% operating ratio during the first half of 2022. Yield remains strong and we continue to capture both revenue and cost synergies, leading to an 82.2% Adjusted Operating Ratio1.

•Logistics — 84.3% operating ratio during the first half of 2022. The Adjusted Operating Ratio1 was 84.1%, with operating income improvement of 280.0%. Load count grew by 60.9%, leading to an 89.8% increase in revenue, excluding intersegment transactions.

•Intermodal — 87.9% operating ratio during the first half of 2022, a 790 basis point improvement compared to this time last year, leading to a 216.6% increase in operating income with revenue growth of 8.9%, excluding intersegment transactions.

•Non-reportable Segments — Revenue growth of 109.2% was supported by the activities within our operating segments of insurance, equipment maintenance, equipment leasing, and warehousing, leading to a $34.4 million improvement in operating income during the first half of 2022, compared to the same period last year.

•Embark — The value of our 2021 initial investment in Embark declined, resulting in an unrealized loss that negatively impacted earnings per diluted share and Adjusted EPS1 by $0.23 during the first half of 2022.

•Liquidity and Capital — During the first half of 2022, we generated $720.0 million in operating cash flows. Our Free Cash Flow1 was $528.7 million. We paid down $38.8 million in long-term debt, $27.6 million in finance lease liabilities, and $19.8 million in cash on our operating lease liabilities. We also repurchased $299.9 million worth of our shares and issued $39.7 million in dividends to our stockholders. Gain on sale of revenue equipment increased to $57.8 million in the first half of 2022, compared to $25.6 million in the first half of 2021.

We ended the first half of 2022 with $198.0 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $129.0 million outstanding on the 2021 Revolver, $1.2 billion face value outstanding on the 2021 Term Loans, and $6.6 billion of stockholders' equity. We do not foresee material liquidity constraints or any issues with our ongoing ability to meet our debt covenants. See discussion under "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for additional information.

Market Trends and Outlook

The national unemployment rate remained at 3.6%1 from March 31, 2022 to June 30, 2022, as compared to 5.9%1 as of June 30, 2021. The US gross domestic product, which is the broadest measure of goods and services produced across the economy, decreased by 0.9%2 on a year-over-year basis, per preliminary third-party forecasts. The decrease, compared to 2021, reflected decreases in private inventory investment, residential fixed investment, federal government spending, state and local government spending, and nonresidential fixed investment that were partly offset by increases in exports and personal consumption expenditures. Early estimates of the second quarter 2022 US employment cost index indicate a year-over-year increase of 5.1%1 and a sequential increase of 1.3%1.

The freight market outlook for the second half of 2022 includes the following:

•Overall consumer demand moderates

•Continued decline in non-contract opportunities

•Less visibility on peak season surge

•Strong demand for trailer pools continues

•Depressed spot rates combined with higher fuel, maintenance, and equipment costs disincentivize new entrants and pressure highly leveraged carriers

•LTL demand remains strong with increases in revenue per hundredweight remaining in the double digits year-over-year

•Sourcing and retaining drivers improves but remains challenging

•Inflationary pressure on equipment, maintenance, labor, and other cost items continues

•Used equipment market normalizes as the year progresses

Based on the above market factors, our Company outlook on the second half of 2022 includes the following:

•Rates inflect negatively year-over-year late in the third quarter and into the fourth quarter as the moderating spot market yields less non-contract opportunities

•Stable truck count with a modest sequential improvement in miles per tractor

•Year-over-year increases in LTL revenue with improved margins

•Increased Logistics load volumes offset by a reduced revenue per load with an operating ratio in the high 80s

•Intermodal margins to remain in the double digits with volumes improving year-over-year

•Continued growth in revenue and operating income within the non-reportable segments

•Inflationary pressure in most cost areas including maintenance, equipment, and non-driving labor

•Equipment gains to be approximately $20 – $25 million in total for the rest of the year

•Increased interest rates expected to negatively impact earnings in the back half of the year

•Net cash capital expenditures expected range of $550 – $600 million for the full year 2022, excluding potential acquisitions

•Approximate tax rate of 25% for the full year 2022

In addition to the above, we expect the Truckload segment will remain resilient and continue to operate efficiently and the Logistics segment will continue to provide value to our customers through our power-only and traditional brokerage service offerings. Our ACT and MME teams are working together to further build out a super-regional network that we expect will provide additional yield and revenue opportunities. The Intermodal segment continues to build out its network that aligns with our new rail partners. Our non-reportable segments are further expanding to complement our other service offerings.

We anticipate that depreciation and amortization expense will increase and rental expense will correspondingly decrease, as a percentage of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge, as we intend to purchase, rather than enter into operating leases, for a majority of our revenue equipment in the remainder of 2022. With significant tightening in the insurance markets, we may also experience changes in premiums, retention limits, and excess coverage limits in the remainder of 2022. While fuel expense is generally offset by fuel surcharge revenue, our fuel expense, net of truckload and LTL fuel surcharge revenue, may increase in the future, particularly during periods of sharply rising fuel prices.

Results of Operations — Summary

Note: In accordance with the accounting treatment applicable to each of our 2021 acquisitions, Knight-Swift's reported results do not include the operating results of the acquired entities prior to the respective acquisition dates. Accordingly, comparisons between the Company's second quarter and first half 2022 results and prior periods may not be meaningful.

Operating Results: Second Quarter 2022 Compared to Second Quarter 2021

The $66.7 million increase in net income attributable to Knight-Swift to $219.5 million during the second quarter of 2022 from $152.8 million during the same period last year includes the following:

•Contributor — $37.8 million increase in operating income within our Truckload segment, driven by an 11.2% increase in revenue, excluding fuel surcharge and intersegment transactions.

•Contributor — $43.8 million of operating income from our LTL segment in the second quarter of 2022.

•Contributor — $29.4 million increase in operating income within our Logistics segment. Revenue, excluding intersegment transactions, increased by 52.5%, as we grew load count by 48.2% while increasing revenue per load by 2.9%.

•Contributor — $8.4 million improvement in operating income within our Intermodal segment, supported by revenue growth of 15.2%.

•Contributor — $15.3 million increase in operating income within the non-reportable segments, supported by revenue growth of $61.3 million from the insurance, equipment maintenance, equipment leasing, and warehousing operating segments.

•Offset — $42.4 million reduction in "Other (expenses) income, net," primarily driven by an unrealized loss from the mark-to-market adjustment of our investment in Embark in the second quarter of 2022 compared to a gain in the same quarter of last year.

Revenue

•Our truckload services include irregular route and dedicated, refrigerated, expedited, flatbed, and cross-border transportation of various products, goods, and materials for our diverse customer base with 13,342 irregular route and 4,713 dedicated tractors.

•Our LTL business, which was initially established in 2021 through the ACT and later the MME acquisition, provides our customers with regional LTL transportation service through our growing network of approximately 100 facilities and a door count of 4,300. Our LTL segment operates approximately 3,100 tractors and 8,400 trailers and also provides national coverage to our customers by utilizing partner carriers for areas outside of our direct network.

•Our Logistics and Intermodal segments provide a multitude of shipping solutions, including additional sources of truckload capacity and alternative transportation modes, by utilizing our vast network of third-party capacity providers and rail providers, as well as certain logistics and freight management services. We continue to offer power-only services through our Logistics segment leveraging our fleet of over 73,000 trailers.

•Our non-reportable segments include support services provided to our customers and third-party carriers including insurance, equipment maintenance, equipment leasing, warehousing, trailer parts manufacturing, and warranty services. Our non-reportable segments also include certain corporate expenses (such as legal settlements and accruals, certain impairments, and amortization of intangibles related to the 2017 Merger and various acquisitions).

•In addition to the revenues earned from our customers for the trucking and non-trucking services discussed above, we also earn fuel surcharge revenue from our customers through our fuel surcharge programs, which serve to recover a majority of our fuel costs. This applies only to loaded miles for our Truckload segment and typically does not offset non-paid empty miles, idle time, and out-of-route miles driven. Fuel surcharge programs involve a computation based on the change in national or regional fuel prices. These programs may update as often as weekly, but typically require a specified minimum change in fuel cost to prompt a change in fuel surcharge revenue. Therefore, many of these programs have a time lag between when fuel costs change and when the change is reflected in fuel surcharge revenue for our Truckload and LTL segments.

Expenses

Our most significant expenses typically vary with miles traveled and include fuel, driving associate-related expenses (such as wages and benefits), and services purchased from third-party service providers (including other trucking companies, railroad and drayage providers, and independent contractors). Maintenance and tire expenses, as well as the cost of insurance and claims generally vary with the miles we travel, but also have a controllable component based on safety performance, fleet age, operating efficiency, and other factors. Our primary fixed costs are depreciation and lease expense for revenue equipment and terminals, non-driver employee compensation, amortization of intangible assets, and interest expenses.

Segment Review

Truckload Segment

We generate revenue in the Truckload segment primarily through irregular route, dedicated, refrigerated, expedited, flatbed, and cross-border service operations across our brands. We operated 13,342 irregular route tractors and 4,713 dedicated route tractors in use during the quarter-to-date period ended June 30, 2022. Generally, we are paid a predetermined rate per mile or per load for our truckload services. Additional revenues are generated by charging for tractor and trailer detention, loading and unloading activities, dedicated services, and other specialized services, as well as through the collection of fuel surcharge revenue to mitigate the impact of increases in the cost of fuel. The main factors that affect the revenue generated by our Truckload segment are rate per mile from our customers, the percentage of miles for which we are compensated, and the number of loaded miles we generate with our equipment.

The most significant expenses in the Truckload segment are primarily variable and include fuel and fuel taxes, driving associate-related expenses (such as wages, benefits, training, and recruitment), and costs associated with independent contractors primarily included in "Purchased transportation" in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Maintenance expense (which includes costs for replacement tires for our revenue equipment) and insurance and claims expenses have both fixed and variable components. These expenses generally vary with the miles we travel, but also have a controllable component based on safety, fleet age, efficiency, and other factors. The main fixed costs in the Truckload segment are depreciation and rent expense from tractors, trailers, and terminals, as well as compensating our non-driver employees.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — CONTINUED

Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Our Truckload segment operated at a 78.9% Adjusted Operating Ratio, which improved by 200 basis points year-over-year. This, along with 11.2% growth in revenue, excluding fuel surcharge and intersegment transactions, led to a 22.4% improvement in Adjusted Operating Income.

Revenue per loaded mile, excluding fuel surcharge and intersegment transactions increased 21.2%. Miles per tractor decreased by 6.6%, which is an improvement from the year-over-year decrease of 9.6% for the first quarter of 2022. These factors ultimately led to an 11.1% increase in average revenue per tractor and improved margins.

We are making modest progress with seating our tractors, leading to improved utilization. We continue to add scale by increasing our trailer count which has grown to approximately 73,000 trailers as of the second quarter of 2022.

Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Our Truckload segment operated at a 78.6% Adjusted Operating Ratio, which improved by 270 basis points when compared to the first half of 2021. This, along with 9.6% growth in revenue, excluding fuel surcharge and intersegment transactions, led to a 25.8% improvement in Adjusted Operating Income.

Revenue per loaded mile, excluding fuel surcharge and intersegment transactions increased 21.8% while miles per tractor decreased by 8.1%. These factors ultimately led to a 10.3% increase in average revenue per tractor and improved margins.

LTL Segment

Dothan, Alabama-based ACT and Bismarck, North Dakota-based MME, both acquired in 2021, comprise our LTL segment. We provide regional direct service and serve our customers' national transportation needs by utilizing key partner carriers for coverage areas outside of our network. We primarily generate revenue by transporting freight for our customers through our core LTL services.

Our revenues are impacted by shipment volume and tonnage levels that flow through our network. Additional revenues are generated through fuel surcharges and accessorial services provided during transit from shipment origin to destination. We focus on the following multiple revenue generation factors when reviewing revenue yield: revenue per hundredweight, revenue per shipment, weight per shipment, and length of haul. Fluctuation within each of these metrics is analyzed when determining the revenue quality of our customers' shipment density.

Our most significant expense is related to direct costs associated with the transportation of our freight moves including; direct salary, wage and benefit costs, fuel expense, and depreciation expense associated with revenue equipment costs. Other expenses associated with revenue generation that can fluctuate and impact operating results are insurance and claims expenses as well as maintenance costs of our revenue equipment. These expenses can be influenced by multiple factors including our safety performance, equipment age, and other factors. A key component of lowering our operating costs is labor efficiency within our network. We continue to focus on technological advances to improve the customer experience and reduce our operating costs.

Logistics Segment

The Logistics segment is less asset-intensive than the Truckload and LTL segments and is dependent upon capable non-driver employees, modern and effective information technology, and third-party capacity providers. Logistics revenue is generated by its brokerage operations. We generate additional revenue by offering specialized logistics solutions (including, but not limited to, trailing equipment, origin management, surge volume, disaster relief, special projects, and other logistic needs). Logistics revenue is mainly affected by the rates we obtain from customers, the freight volumes we ship through third-party capacity providers, and our ability to secure third-party capacity providers to transport customer freight.

The most significant expense in the Logistics segment is purchased transportation that we pay to third-party capacity providers, which is primarily a variable cost and is included in "Purchased transportation" in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Variability in this expense depends on truckload capacity, availability of third-party capacity providers, rates charged to customers, current freight demand, and customer shipping needs. Fixed Logistics operating expenses primarily include non-driver employee compensation and benefits recorded in "Salaries, wages, and benefits" and depreciation and amortization expense recorded in "Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment" in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Intermodal Segment

The Intermodal segment complements our regional operating model, allows us to better serve customers in longer haul lanes, and reduces our investment in fixed assets. Through the Intermodal segment, we generate revenue by moving freight over the rail in our containers and other trailing equipment, combined with revenue for drayage to transport loads between railheads and customer locations. The most significant expense in the Intermodal segment is the cost of purchased transportation that we pay to third-party capacity providers (including rail providers), which is primarily variable and included in "Purchased transportation" in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Purchased transportation varies as it relates to rail capacity, freight demand, and customer shipping needs. The main fixed costs in the Intermodal segment are depreciation of our company tractors related to drayage, containers, and chassis, as well as non-driver employee compensation and benefits.

Includes 546 and 549 company-owned tractors for the year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Operating income increased by 143.8%, as operating ratio improved from 95.0% to 89.3%. We saw meaningful improvements in street and rail velocity in many corridors after volumes in the beginning of the quarter were negatively impacted by longer container and chassis dwell times, as well as inconsistent rail network speeds. These factors contributed to a 39.2% increase in revenue per load, partially offset by a 17.2% decrease in load count. Labor challenges within the rail network appear to be softening, leading to improved notification times and more consistency for our customers.

Network fluidity continues to be a rail market challenge. As a result of our new network and improved service offering, we expect load volumes to inflect positive year-over-year beginning in the third quarter as we grow by adding new customers and expanding with existing customers. To position Intermodal for continued growth, we increased our container count by over 600 during the first half of the year and we anticipate further growth during the second half. Intermodal continues to provide value to our customers and is complementary to the many services we offer.

Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Operating income increased by 216.6%, as operating ratio improved from 95.8% to 87.9%.

Results of Operations — Consolidated Operating and Other Expenses

Consolidated Operating Expenses

The following tables present certain operating expenses from our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, including each operating expense as a percentage of total revenue and as a percentage of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge. Truckload and LTL fuel surcharge revenue can be volatile and is primarily dependent upon the cost of fuel, rather than operating expenses unrelated to fuel. Therefore, we believe that revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge is a better measure for analyzing many of our expenses and operating metrics.

Note: In accordance with the accounting treatment applicable to each of our recent acquisitions, Knight-Swift's reported results do not include the comparative operating results of the acquired entities prior to the respective acquisition date. Accordingly, comparisons between the second quarter and first half 2022 results and prior periods may not be meaningful.

% of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge	32.5		%	31.1		%	32.5		%	31.9		%	140	bps	60	bps

Salaries, wages, and benefits expense is primarily affected by the total number of miles driven by and rates we pay to our company driving associates, and employee benefits including healthcare, workers' compensation, and other benefits. To a lesser extent, non-driver employee headcount, compensation, and benefits affect this expense. Driving associate wages represent the largest component of salaries, wages, and benefits expense.

Several ongoing market factors have reduced the pool of available driving associates, contributing to a challenging driver sourcing market, which we believe will continue. Having a sufficient number of qualified driving associates is a significant headwind, although we continue to seek ways to attract and retain qualified driving associates, including heavily investing in our recruiting efforts, our driving academies, technology, our equipment, and terminals that improve the experience of driving associates. We expect labor costs (related to both driving associates and non-driver employees) to remain inflationary, which we expect will result in additional pay increases in the future, thereby increasing our salaries, wages, and benefits expense.

•Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Consolidated salaries, wages, and benefits increased by $172.3 million for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to the second quarter of 2021. This increase includes $140.3 million from the second quarter 2022 results of ACT and MME. The remaining increase pertained to driving associate pay rates and non-driver salaries and wages, and a 6.0% increase in miles driven by company driving associates, excluding ACT and MME.

•Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Consolidated salaries, wages, and benefits increased by $338.0 million for the first half of 2022, as compared to the first half of 2021. This increase includes $275.6 million from the first half of 2022 results of ACT and MME. The remaining increase pertained to driving associate pay rates, non-driver salaries and wages, higher benefit costs, and a 4.5% increase in miles driven by company driving associates, excluding ACT and MME.

% of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge	15.2		%	10.4		%	13.4		%	10.4		%	480	bps	300	bps

Fuel expense consists primarily of diesel fuel expense for our company-owned tractors and fuel taxes. The primary factors affecting our fuel expense are the cost of diesel fuel, the fuel economy of our equipment, and the miles driven by company driving associates.

Our fuel surcharge programs help to offset increases in fuel prices, but apply only to loaded miles for our Truckload and LTL segments and typically do not offset non-paid empty miles, idle time, or out-of-route miles driven. Typical fuel surcharge programs involve a computation based on the change in national or regional fuel prices. These programs may update as often as weekly, but typically require a specified minimum change in fuel cost to prompt a change in fuel surcharge revenue for our Truckload and LTL segments. Therefore, many of these programs have a time lag between when fuel costs change and when the change is reflected in fuel surcharge revenue. Due to this time lag, our fuel expense, net of fuel surcharge, negatively impacts our operating income during periods of sharply rising fuel costs and positively impacts our operating income during periods of falling fuel costs. We continue to utilize our fuel efficiency initiatives such as trailer blades, idle-control, management of tractor speeds, fleet updates for more fuel-efficient engines, management of fuel procurement, and driving associate training programs that we believe contribute to controlling our fuel expense.

•Comparison Between Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $131.1 million increase in consolidated fuel expense for the second quarter, includes $36.0 million of fuel expense from ACT's and MME's second quarter 2022 results. The remaining year-over-year increase is attributable to higher average DOE fuel prices and an increase in total miles driven by company driving associates, excluding ACT and MME. Average DOE fuel prices were $5.53 per gallon for the second quarter of 2022 and $3.21 per gallon for the second quarter of 2021.

•Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $203.3 million increase in consolidated fuel expense for the first half of 2022, includes $63.0 million of fuel expense from ACT's and MME's first half 2022 results. The remaining year-over-year increase is attributable to higher average DOE fuel prices and the increase in total miles driven by company driving associates, excluding ACT and MME, discussed above. Average DOE fuel prices were $4.95 per gallon for the first half of 2022 and $3.06 per gallon for the first half of 2021.

% of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge	6.3		%	5.9		%	6.1		%	5.9		%	40	bps	20	bps

Operations and maintenance expense consists of direct operating expenses, such as driving associate hiring and recruiting expenses, equipment maintenance, and tire expense. Operations and maintenance expenses are primarily affected by the age of our company-owned fleet of tractors and trailers and the miles driven. We expect the driver market to remain competitive throughout 2022, which could increase future driving associate development and recruiting costs and negatively affect our operations and maintenance expense. We expect to continue refreshing our tractor and trailer fleet in the coming quarters, subject to availability of new revenue equipment, to maintain or improve the average age of our equipment.

•Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The increase of $35.4 million for the second quarter of 2022 includes $13.4 million in operations and maintenance expense from ACT's and MME's second quarter 2022 results. The remaining increase was attributed to higher maintenance expenses due to inflation, higher port per diem expenses as we navigate a backlog of shipping containers at ports, and increased hiring expenses as we work to improve our seated truck count.

•Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The increase of $63.2 million for the first half of 2022 includes $25.7 million in operations and maintenance expense from ACT's and MME's first half 2022 results. The remaining increase was attributed to the factors listed above.

% of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge	6.0		%	4.8		%	6.0		%	4.9		%	120	bps	110	bps

Insurance and claims expense consists of premiums for liability, physical damage, and cargo, and will vary based upon the frequency and severity of claims, our level of self-insurance, and premium expense. In recent years, insurance carriers have raised premiums for many businesses, including transportation companies, and as a result, our insurance and claims expense could increase in the future, or we could raise our self-insured retention limits or reduce excess coverage limits when our policies are renewed or replaced. In 2021, we expanded our insurance offerings to third-party carriers, earning additional premium revenues, which were partially offset by increased insurance reserves. Insurance and claims expense also varies based on the number of miles driven by company driving associates and independent contractors, the frequency and severity of accidents, trends in development factors used in actuarial accruals, and developments in large, prior-year claims. In future periods, our higher self-insured retention limits or lower excess coverage limits may cause increased volatility in our consolidated insurance and claims expense.

•Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Consolidated insurance and claims expense increased by $43.3 million for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase of insurance reserves incurred through our third-party carrier insurance program. The remaining increase is primarily due to the inclusion of $7.5 million of insurance and claims expense from ACT's and MME's second quarter 2022 results.

% of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge	8.7		%	10.2		%	8.8		%	10.4		%	(150	bps)	(160	bps)

Depreciation relates primarily to our owned tractors, trailers, buildings, electronic logging devices, other communication units, and other similar assets. Changes to this fixed cost are generally attributed to increases or decreases to company-owned equipment, the relative percentage of owned versus leased equipment, and fluctuations in new equipment purchase prices. Depreciation can also be affected by the cost of used equipment that we sell or trade and the replacement of older used equipment. Management periodically reviews the condition, average age, and reasonableness of estimated useful lives and salvage values of our equipment and considers such factors in light of our experience with similar assets, used equipment market conditions, and prevailing industry practices.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — CONTINUED

Consolidated depreciation and amortization of property and equipment increased by $23.9 million for the second quarter of 2022 and $49.0 million for the first half of 2022, as compared to the same periods last year. These increases include ACT's and MME's results of $15.3 million from the second quarter of 2022 and $30.6 million from the first half of 2022. The remaining increase was primarily related to an increase in owned versus leased equipment.

We expect consolidated depreciation and amortization of property and equipment to increase in total and as a percentage of consolidated revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge, as we currently do not plan to use operating leases as a primary means of funding our equipment purchases in the remainder of 2022.

% of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge	0.8		%	1.1		%	0.8		%	1.3		%	(30	bps)	(50	bps)

Rental expense consists primarily of payments for tractors and trailers financed with operating leases. The primary factors affecting the expense are the size of our revenue equipment fleet and the relative percentage of owned versus leased equipment.

•Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The quarter over quarter increase of $0.1 million includes $1.7 million of additional expense in 2022 from ACT's and MME's operating results. This was partially offset by a decrease in the number of leased units, excluding ACT's and MME's 2022 results.

•Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $3.4 million decrease in consolidated rental expenses for the first half of 2022, compared to the first half of 2021, is primarily due to an increase in our owned versus leased equipment. This was partially offset by $3.4 million of additional expense from ACT's and MME's operating results included during the first half of 2022.

We expect consolidated rental expense to continue to decrease both in total and as a percentage of consolidated revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge, as we currently do not plan to use operating leases as a primary means of funding our equipment purchases for the remainder of 2022.

% of revenue, excluding truckload and LTL fuel surcharge	22.7		%	25.1		%	23.1		%	24.0		%	(240	bps)	(90	bps)

Purchased transportation expense is comprised of payments to independent contractors in our trucking operations, as well as payments to third-party capacity providers related to logistics, freight management, and non-trucking services in our logistics and intermodal businesses. Purchased transportation is generally affected by capacity in the market as well as changes in fuel prices. As capacity tightens, our payments to third-party capacity providers and to independent contractors tend to increase. Additionally, as fuel prices increase, payments to third-party capacity providers and independent contractors increase.

Consolidated purchased transportation expense increased by $80.8 million for the second quarter of 2022 and $209.0 million for the first half of 2022, as compared to the same periods last year, primarily due to increased load volumes within our logistics business. Purchased transportation expense also includes ACT's and MME's results of $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2022 and $6.8 million for the first half of 2022.

We expect purchased transportation will increase as a percentage of revenue if we grow our logistics and intermodal businesses faster than our full truckload and LTL businesses. The increase could be partially offset if independent contractors exit the market due to regulatory changes.

Interest expense — Interest expense is comprised of debt and finance lease interest expense as well as amortization of deferred loan costs. Interest expense increased during the second quarter and first half of 2022 due to higher overall debt balances from the 2021 Debt Agreement which was entered into on September 3, 2021 and replaced the July 2021 Term Loan and 2017 Debt Agreement. Additional details regarding our debt are discussed in Note 6 in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Other expenses (income), net — Other expenses (income), net is primarily comprised of losses and (gains) from our various equity investments, including our investment in Embark, as well as certain other non-operating income and expense items that may arise outside of the normal course of business.

•Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $42.4 million unfavorable change in other expenses (income) net, is primarily driven by unrealized losses from the mark-to-market adjustment of our investment in Embark in the second quarter of 2022 compared to gains in the second quarter of 2021.

•Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $72.9 million unfavorable change in other expenses (income), net is primarily driven by unrealized losses from the mark-to-market adjustment of our investment in Embark in the first half of 2022 compared to gains in the first half of 2021.

Income tax expense — In addition to the discussion below, Note 4 in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report provides further analysis related to income taxes.

•Comparison Between the Quarters Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $20.3 million increase in consolidated income tax expense was primarily due to an increase in income before income taxes. This resulted in an effective tax rate of 24.7% for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 25.3% for the second quarter of 2021.

•Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $44.2 million increase in consolidated income tax expense was primarily due to an increase in income before income taxes.

The terms "Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Knight-Swift," "Adjusted EPS," "Adjusted Operating Income," "Adjusted Operating Ratio," and "Free Cash Flow," as we define them, are not presented in accordance with GAAP. These financial measures supplement our GAAP results in evaluating certain aspects of our business. We believe that using these measures improves comparability in analyzing our performance because they remove the impact of items from our operating results that, in our opinion, do not reflect our core operating performance. Management and the Board focus on Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Knight-Swift, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Operating Income, and Adjusted Operating Ratio as key measures of our performance, all of which are reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measures and further discussed below. Management and the Board use Free Cash Flow as a key measure of our liquidity. Free Cash Flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. We believe our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our core operating performance.

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Knight-Swift, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Ratio, and Free Cash Flow are not substitutes for their comparable GAAP financial measures, such as net income, cash flows from operating activities, operating income, or other measures prescribed by GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures. Although we believe that they improve comparability in analyzing our period to period performance, they could limit comparability to other companies in our industry if those companies define these measures differently. Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered measures of income generated by our business or discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis.

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the following tables reconcile GAAP consolidated net income attributable to Knight-Swift to non-GAAP consolidated Adjusted Net Income attributable to Knight-Swift, GAAP consolidated earnings per diluted share to non-GAAP consolidated Adjusted EPS, GAAP consolidated operating ratio to non-GAAP consolidated Adjusted Operating Ratio, GAAP reportable segment operating income to non-GAAP reportable segment Adjusted Operating Income, GAAP reportable segment operating ratio to non-GAAP reportable segment Adjusted Operating Ratio, and GAAP cash flow from operations to non-GAAP Free Cash Flow.

1 As of June 30, 2022, we had $129.0 million in borrowings under our $1.1 billion 2021 Revolver. We additionally had $99.0 million in outstanding letters of credit (discussed below), leaving $872.0 million available under the Revolver.

2 Based on eligible receivables at June 30, 2022, our borrowing base for the 2021 RSA was $400.0 million, while outstanding borrowings were $279.0 million. We additionally had $65.3 million in outstanding letters of credit (discussed below), leaving $55.7 million available under the 2021 RSA. Refer to Note 5 in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for more information regarding the 2021 RSA.

3 As of June 30, 2022, we had $37.1 million outstanding principal on our shelf notes issued under our $125.0 million 2021 Prudential Notes, leaving $87.9 million available for issuance under the 2021 Prudential Notes.

4 Restricted cash and restricted investments are primarily held by our captive insurance companies for claims payments. "Cash and cash equivalents – restricted" consists of $111.4 million, included in "Cash and cash equivalents – restricted" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and held by Mohave and Red Rock for claims payments. The remaining $3.9 million is included in "Other long-term assets" and is held in escrow accounts to meet statutory requirements.

Uses of Liquidity

Our business requires substantial amounts of cash for operating activities, including salaries and wages paid to our employees, contract payments to independent contractors, insurance and claims payments, tax payments, and others. We also use large amounts of cash and credit for the following activities:

Capital Expenditures — When justified by customer demand, as well as our liquidity and our ability to generate acceptable returns, we make substantial cash capital expenditures to maintain a modern company tractor fleet, refresh and expand our trailer fleet, expand our network of LTL service centers, and, to a lesser extent, fund upgrades to our terminals and technology in our various service offerings. In connection with our business strategy, we regularly evaluate acquisition and strategic partnership opportunities. We expect net cash capital expenditures, will be in the range of $550.0 – $600.0 million for full-year 2022. This range excludes cash outlays for potential acquisitions. We believe we have ample flexibility in our trade cycle and purchase agreements to alter our current plans if economic and other conditions warrant.

Table of Contents Glossary of Terms

KNIGHT-SWIFT TRANSPORTATION HOLDINGS INC.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — CONTINUED

Over the long-term, we will continue to have significant capital requirements, which may require us to seek additional borrowing, lease financing, or equity capital. The availability of financing or equity capital will depend upon our financial condition and results of operations as well as prevailing market conditions. If such additional borrowing, lease financing, or equity capital is not available at the time we need it, then we may need to borrow more under the 2021 Revolver (if not then fully drawn), extend the maturity of then-outstanding debt, rely on alternative financing arrangements, engage in asset sales, limit our fleet size, or operate our revenue equipment for longer periods.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional debt under our existing financial arrangements to satisfy our ongoing capital requirements. However, we believe the combination of our expected cash flows, financing available through operating and finance leases, available funds under our accounts receivable securitization, and availability under the 2021 Revolver will be sufficient to fund our expected capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

Principal and Interest Payments — As of June 30, 2022, we had debt, accounts receivable securitization, and finance lease obligations of $2.0 billion, which are discussed under "Material Debt Agreements," below. Certain cash flows from operations are committed to minimum payments of principal and interest on our debt and lease obligations. Additionally, when our financial position allows, we periodically make voluntary prepayments on our outstanding debt balances.

Letters of Credit — Pursuant to the terms of the 2021 Debt Agreement and the 2021 RSA, our lenders may issue standby letters of credit on our behalf. When we have letters of credit outstanding, the availability under the 2021 Revolver or 2021 RSA is reduced accordingly. Standby letters of credit are typically issued for the benefit of regulatory authorities, insurance companies and state departments of insurance for the purpose of satisfying certain collateral requirements, primarily related to our automobile, workers' compensation, and general insurance liabilities.

Share Repurchases — From time to time, and depending on Free Cash Flow1 availability, debt levels, common stock prices, general economic and market conditions, as well as internal approval requirements, we may repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $200.0 million remaining under the 2022 Knight-Swift Share Repurchase Plan. Additional details regarding our share repurchase plans are discussed in Note 10 in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Working Capital

We had a working capital surplus of $369.6 million as of June 30, 2022 and $339.5 million as of December 31, 2021.

Cash Flow Analysis


	Year-to-Date June 30,				Change
	2022		2021
	(In thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	719,984	$	459,504	$	260,480

Net cash used in financing activities	(552,361)		(227,798)		(324,563)

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $260.5 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a $270.5 million increase in operating income, including the operating results of ACT and MME for the first half of 2022. This was partially offset by a $21.5 million increase in income tax payments. The remaining difference is attributed to various changes in working capital. Note: Factors affecting the increase in operating income are discussed in "Results of Operations — Consolidated Operating and Other Expenses."

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — The $7.4 million increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to a $70.8 million increase in net cash capital expenditures, including the first half 2022 investing activities of ACT and MME, and was partially offset by a $62.0 million decrease in net cash invested in acquisitions.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Comparison Between Year-to-Date June 30, 2022 and 2021 — Net cash used in financing activities increased by $324.6 million, primarily due to a $246.3 million increase in repurchases of our common stock and a $65.0 million decrease in net borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization.

Seasonality

Discussion regarding the impact of seasonality on our business is included in Note 1 in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, incorporated by reference herein.


Inflation

Most of our operating expenses are inflation-sensitive, with inflation generally leading to increased costs of operations. Price increases in manufacturer revenue equipment have impacted the cost for us to acquire new equipment. Cost increases have also impacted the cost of parts for equipment repairs and maintenance. The qualified driver shortage experienced by the trucking industry overall has had the effect of increasing compensation paid to our driving associates. We have also experienced inflation in insurance and claims cost related to health insurance and claims, as well as auto liability insurance and claims. Prolonged periods of inflation could cause interest rates, fuel, wages, and other costs to increase as well. Any of these factors could adversely affect our results of operations unless freight rates correspondingly increase.


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated herein by reference, for the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.


ITEM 3.			QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

We have exposure from variable interest rates, primarily related to our 2021 Debt Agreement and 2021 RSA. These variable interest rates are impacted by changes in short-term interest rates. We primarily manage interest rate exposure through a mix of variable rate debt (weighted average rate of 2.6% as of June 30, 2022) and fixed rate equipment lease financing. Assuming the level of borrowings as of June 30, 2022, a hypothetical one percentage point increase in interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by $16.2 million.

Commodity Price Risk

We have commodity exposure with respect to fuel used in company-owned tractors. Increases in fuel prices would continue to raise our operating costs, even after applying fuel surcharge revenue. Historically, we have been able to recover a majority of fuel price increases from our customers in the form of fuel surcharges. The weekly average diesel price per gallon in the US increased to $5.53 for the second quarter of 2022 from an average of $3.21 in the second quarter of 2021. The weekly average diesel price per gallon in the US increased to $4.95 for year-to-date June 30, 2022 from an average of $3.06 for year-to-date June 30, 2022. We cannot predict the extent or speed of potential changes in fuel price levels 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 such increases. We generally have not used derivative financial instruments to hedge our fuel price exposure in the past, but continue to evaluate this possibility. To mitigate the impact of rising fuel costs, we contract with some of our fuel suppliers to buy fuel at a fixed price or within banded pricing for a specified period, usually not exceeding twelve months. However, these purchase commitments only cover a small portion of our fuel consumption. Accordingly, fuel price fluctuations may still negatively impact us.

ITEM 4.			CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify our financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We base our internal control over financial reporting on the criteria set forth in the 2013 COSO Internal Control: Integrated Framework.

We have confidence in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Nevertheless, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors, misstatements, or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
