News Release

April 26, 2007

YRC Worldwide Announces First Quarter Earnings

• Consolidated First Quarter Revenue Exceeded $2.3 Billion

• Severe Weather, Slower Economy Impacts Performance

• Cash Flow from Operations Exceeds $120 Million

OVERLAND PARK, KAN. — YRC Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: YRCW) today announced first quarter 2007 adjusted diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.20, which includes adverse weather impacts estimated at $0.17, compared to adjusted EPS of $0.72 for the first quarter 2006. First quarter 2007 adjusted EPS excludes $0.18 of losses on property disposals and reorganization charges related to the YRC National Transportation formation and the combination of USF Reddaway and USF Bestway, all of which were previously announced in January 2007. The company does not consider these costs a part of core operations and excludes them when evaluating ongoing performance. Reported EPS for first quarter 2007 was $0.02 compared to reported EPS of $0.71 in first quarter last year.

“Our results were impacted by a weaker economy and extremely difficult operating conditions during the first quarter,” stated Bill Zollars, Chairman, President and CEO of YRC Worldwide.

YRC Worldwide reported the following consolidated results for the first quarter 2007:

• Quarterly operating revenue of $2.3 billion compared to first quarter last year of $2.4 billion.

• Adjusted operating income of $38 million compared to first quarter 2006 adjusted operating income of $89 million. Adjustments in 2007 included reorganization charges and losses on property disposals. Reported operating income was $20 million compared to reported operating income of $88 million in 2006.

• Net cash from operating activities was $123 million for the quarter.

For statistical information, refer to the company’s website at Tyrcw.comT under Investor Relations and then select Earnings Releases & Operating Statistics.

Outlook

“The economy grew more slowly than anticipated in the first quarter,” Zollars stated, “and the general consensus of economists appears to be pushing out an improving economy by one quarter which will continue to impact us as we move through 2007.”

Based on the first quarter results and the revised economic outlook, the company is updating full-year guidance.

• Full year 2007 adjusted, diluted EPS between $4.00 and $4.20.

• Full year 2007 consolidated revenue of $10.2 billion, interest expense around $90 million and a consolidated income tax rate of 39.0%.

• Diluted average shares of around 59 million assuming an average year-to-date, through March 31, 2007, stock price of $42 per share.

• 2007 gross capital expenditures in the range of $375 to $400 million.

The preceding disclosures contain references to “reported” and “adjusted” operating income and earnings per share. Reported numbers include reorganization charges and property gains and losses, while adjusted numbers exclude these items. Management adjusts for these items when evaluating operating performance to more accurately compare the results among periods.

This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The words “expect,” “believe,” “guidance”, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. It is important to note that the company’s actual future results, revenue and earnings per share could differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements because of a number of factors, including (without limitation) inflation, inclement weather, price and availability of fuel, sudden changes in the cost of fuel or the index upon which the company bases its fuel surcharge, competitor pricing activity, expense volatility, including (without limitation) expense volatility due to changes in rail service or pricing for rail service, ability to capture cost reductions, including (without limitation) those cost reduction opportunities arising from acquisitions, a downturn in general or regional economic activity, changes in equity and debt markets, effects of a terrorist attack, and labor relations, including (without limitation) the impact of work rules, any obligations to multi-employer health, welfare and pension plans, wage requirements and employee satisfaction.

The company’s expectations regarding its interest expense are only its expectations regarding this expense. Actual interest expense could differ based on a number of factors including (among others) the company’s revenue and profitability results and the factors that affect revenue and results described above, the amount, character and interest rate on the company’s outstanding debt and any financings the company may enter into in the future.

The company’s expectations regarding its effective tax rate are only its expectations regarding this rate. The actual rate could differ based on (among others) the following factors: variances in pre-tax earnings on both a consolidated and business units basis, variance in pre-tax earnings by jurisdiction, impacts on our business from the factors described above, variances in estimates on non-deductible expenses, tax authority audit adjustments, change in tax rates and availability of tax credits.

The company’s expectations for the amount of its diluted average shares are only its expectations regarding this amount. Actual diluted average shares could differ based on a number of factors including (among others) the number of employee and director stock option exercises, actual amounts of stock awarded to employees and directors during the year, the dilutive impact of the contingent convertible notes based on the company’s average stock price, and any unanticipated issuance of stock for currently unplanned financings or acquisitions.

The company’s expectations regarding its gross capital expenditures are only its expectations regarding these expenditures. Actual expenditures could differ based on (among others) the following factors: impacts on our business from the factors described above, the accuracy of our estimates of our spending requirements, the occurrence of any unanticipated acquisition opportunities, changes in our strategic direction, the need to spend additional capital on cost reduction opportunities, and the need to replace any unanticipated losses in capital assets.
