1.           Basis of Presentation

References in this Report on Form 10-Q to "we," "us," "our," "Celadon," the "Company," or similar terms refer to Celadon Group, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements of Celadon Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and Regulation S-X, instructions to Form 10-Q, and other relevant rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as applicable to the preparation and presentation of interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures have been omitted or condensed pursuant to such rules and regulations. We believe all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.           Earnings Per Share (in thousands, except per share data)

A reconciliation of the basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

	Three months ended
	September 30,
	2013		2012
Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic		22,930		22,383
Dilutive effect of stock options and unvested restricted stock units		732		802
Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted		23,662		23,185
Net income	$	6,566	$	8,262
Earnings per common share
Basic	$	0.29	$	0.37
Diluted	$	0.28	$	0.36

Certain shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares, and therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive. A summary of those options follows:

	Three months ended

	2013		2012
Number of anti-dilutive shares		---		90

3.           Stock Based Compensation

The following table summarizes the components of our stock based compensation program expense (in thousands):

Stock compensation income for stock appreciation rights, including forfeitures		---		(44	)
Total stock compensation expense (income)	$	545	$	537

7

As of September 30, 2013, we have approximately $0.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options granted under the Company's 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (the "2006 Plan"). This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.6 year and a total period of 1.5 years.

A summary of the award activity of the Company's stock option plans as of September 30, 2012, and changes during the three-month period then ended is presented below:

Options	Option Totals		Weighted-Average Exercise Price per Share
Outstanding at July 1, 2013		1,148,790	$	10.76
Granted		---		---
Exercised		100,037	$	12.81
Forfeited or expired		1,750	$	12.79
Outstanding at September 30, 2013		1,047,003	$	9.62
Exercisable at September 30, 2013		989,003	$	9.73

As of September 30, 2013, we also have approximately $4.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock awards, which is anticipated to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years and a total period of 3.3 years.  A summary of the restricted stock award activity under the 2006 Plan as of September 30, 2013, and changes during the three-month period then ended is presented below:

	Number of Restricted Stock Awards		Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at July 1, 2013		355,963	$	15.75
Granted		---		---
Vested and Issued		---		---
Forfeited		4,525	$	12.40
Outstanding at September 30, 2013		351,438	$	15.79

The fair value of each restricted stock award is based on the closing market price on the date of grant.

The Company had no outstanding stock appreciation rights as of September 30, 2013 and 143,156 outstanding stock appreciation rights as of September 30, 2012. These stock appreciation rights were granted at a fair value market price of $8.64 based on the closing market price on the date of the grant.  All stock rights vested and were paid out in the December 2012 quarter.

4.           Segment Information (in thousands)

We have two reportable segments comprised of an asset-based segment and an asset-light-based segment. Our asset-based segment includes our asset-based dry van carrier and rail services, which are geographically diversified but have similar economic and other relevant characteristics, as they all provide truckload carrier services of general commodities to a similar class of customers. Our asset-light-based segment consists of our warehousing, brokerage, and less-than-truckload ("LTL") operations, which we have determined qualifies as a reportable segment under ASC 280-10, Segment Reporting.

Consolidated	$	175,102	$	153,297

5.           Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate was 37.8% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, compared with 39.3% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012. In determining our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on our expected annual income, statutory tax rates, nontaxable and nondeductible items of income and expense, and the ultimate outcome of tax audits.  Income tax expense varies from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal tax rate to income before income taxes primarily due to state income taxes, net of federal income tax effect, adjusted for permanent differences, the most significant of which is the effect of the per diem pay structure for drivers.  Drivers may elect to receive non-taxable per diem pay in lieu of a portion of their taxable wages.  This per diem program increases our drivers’ net pay per mile, after taxes, while decreasing gross pay, before taxes.  As a result, salaries, wages and employee benefits are slightly lower, and our effective income tax rate is higher than the statutory rate.  Generally, as pre-tax income increases, the impact of the driver per diem program on our effective tax rate decreases because aggregate per diem pay becomes smaller in relation to pre-tax income.  Due to the partially nondeductible effect of per diem pay, our tax rate will fluctuate in future periods based on fluctuations in earnings and in the number of drivers who elect to receive this pay structure.

The Company follows ASC Topic 740-10-25 in accounting for uncertainty in income taxes ("Topic 740"). Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. We account for any uncertainty in income taxes by determining whether it is more likely than not that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position.  In that regard, we have analyzed filing positions in our federal and applicable state tax returns as well as in all open tax years.  The only periods subject to examination for our federal returns are the 2009 through 2011 tax years.  We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company recorded a $0.5 million liability for unrecognized tax benefits, a portion of which represents penalties and interest.

6.           Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has outstanding commitments to purchase approximately $18.6 million of revenue equipment at September 30, 2013.

Standby letters of credit, not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, aggregated approximately $0.8 million at September 30, 2013.  

9

7.           Lease Obligations and Long-Term Debt

The Company leases certain revenue and service equipment under long-term lease agreements, payable in monthly installments.

Equipment obtained under a capital lease is reflected on the Company's balance sheet as owned and the related leases mature at various dates through 2020.

Assets held under operating leases are not recorded on the Company's balance sheet. The Company leases revenue and service equipment under non-cancellable operating leases expiring at various dates through April 2019.

Long-Term Debt

The Company had outstanding borrowings, excluding capital leases, of $104.6 million at September 30, 2013 compared with $28.6 million at September 30, 2012 and $78.1 million at June 30, 2013.

Future minimum lease payments relating to capital leases and operating leases as of September 30, 2013 (in thousands):

8.           Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820-10 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure for non-recurring fair value measurements of non-financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This standard establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the significant inputs used to determine fair value. Observable inputs are those which are obtained from marked participants external to the Company, while unobservable inputs are generally developed internally, utilizing management’s estimates assumptions, and specific knowledge of the nature of the assets or liabilities and related markets. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

10

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs, only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect the Company's assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability.

In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company's financial assets and liabilities (in thousands) that are required to be measured at fair value as of September 30, 2013, and June 30, 2013.

						Level 1				Level 2					Level 3
	Balance		Balance			Balance		Balance		Balance		Balance			Balance		Balance
	at		at			at		at		at		at			at		at
	September		June			September		June		September		June			September		June
	30,		30,			30,		30,		30,		30,			30,		30,
	2013		2013			2013		2013		2013		2013			2013		2013

Fuel derivatives		47		45			---		---		47		45			---		---

Our other financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt, and capital lease obligations.  At September 30, 2013 the fair value of these instruments were approximated by their carrying values.

9.           Dividend

On July 28, 2013, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.02 per share of common stock.  The dividend was payable to shareholders of record on October 4, 2013, and was paid on October 18, 2013.  Future payment of cash dividends, and the amount of any such dividends, will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, cash requirements, tax treatment, and certain corporate law requirements, as well as other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

10.           Fuel Derivatives

In the Company’s day to day business activities we are exposed to certain market risks, including the effects of changes in fuel prices.  The Company continually reviews new ways to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of fuel markets may have on operating results.  In an effort to reduce the variability of the ultimate cash flows associated with fluctuations in diesel fuel prices, the Company has begun to enter into futures contracts.  These instruments will be heating oil futures contracts as the related index, New York Mercantile Exchange ("NYMEX"), generally exhibits high correlation with the changes in the dollars of the forecasted purchase of diesel fuel. The Company does not engage in speculative transactions, nor does it hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.

We have entered into futures contracts, which pertain to 378,000 total gallons, 126,000 gallons per month for October 2013 through December 2013, approximately 4.0% of our monthly projected fuel requirements.   Under these contracts, we pay a fixed rate per gallon of heating oil and receive the monthly average price of New York heating oil per the NYMEX. The Company has done retrospective and prospective regression analyses that showed the changes in the prices of diesel fuel and heating oil were deemed to be highly effective based on the relevant authoritative guidance.  Accordingly, we have designated the respective hedges as cash flow hedges.

We perform both a prospective and retrospective assessment of the effectiveness of our hedge contracts at inception and quarterly.  If our analysis shows that the derivatives are not highly effective as hedges, we will discontinue hedge accounting for the period and prospectively recognize changes in the fair value of the derivative being recognized through earnings.  As a result of our effectiveness assessment at inception and at September 30, 2013, we believe our hedge contracts have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows attributable to the hedged risk.

We recognize all derivative instruments at fair value on our condensed consolidated balance sheets in other assets or other accrued expenses.  The Company's derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges, thus the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and will be reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.  The effective portion of the derivative represents the change in fair value of the hedge that offsets the change in fair value of the hedged item.  To the extent the change in the fair value of the hedge does not perfectly offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, the ineffective portion of the hedge is immediately recognized in other  income or expense on our consolidated condensed statements of income.  The ineffective portion of the hedge for the quarter was immaterial and therefore not recognized through earnings.

Based on the amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income as of September 30, 2013, and the expected timing of the purchases of the diesel hedged, we expect to reclassify $0.1 million of gain on derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to the statement of income, as an offset to fuel expense, due to the actual diesel fuel purchases.  The amounts actually realized will depend on the fair values as of the date of settlement.

Outstanding financial derivative instruments expose us to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the companies with which we have these agreements.  Our credit exposure related to these financial instruments is represented by the fair value of contracts reported as assets.  To evaluate credit risk, we review each counterparty's audited financial statements and credit ratings and obtain references.  Any credit valuation adjustments deemed necessary would be reflected in the fair value of the instrument.  As of September 30, 2013, we have not made any adjustments.

12.           Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, "Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income" ("ASU 2013-02"), which amends current comprehensive income guidance. The Company will be required to present significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendment is effective prospectively for public entities in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The amendments do not change the existing requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements and the adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Business Overview

We are one of North America's twenty largest truckload carriers as measured by revenue. We generated $613.6 million in operating revenue during our fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. We provide asset-based dry van truckload carrier and rail services and asset-light based services including brokerage services, LTL, and warehousing services. Through our asset-based and asset-light-based services, we are able to transport or arrange for transportation throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

We generated approximately 43% of our revenue in fiscal 2013 from international movements, and we believe our annual border crossings make us one of the largest providers of international truckload movements in North America. We believe that our strategically located terminals and experience with the language, culture, and border crossing requirements of each North American country provide a competitive advantage in the international trucking marketplace.

We believe our international operations, particularly those involving Mexico, offer an attractive business niche. The additional complexity of and need to establish cross-border business partners and to develop strong organization and adequate infrastructure in Mexico affords some barriers to competition that are not present in traditional U.S. truckload services.

Recent Results of Operations

Our results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 are:

· Freight revenue increased 16.3% to $142.0 million from $122.1 million;

· Net income decreased 20.5% to $6.6 million from $8.3 million; and

· Net income per diluted share decreased 22.2% to $0.28 from $0.36.

In the quarter ended September 30, 2013, average revenue per loaded mile increased 2.2% from the September 2012 quarter. Average revenue per seated tractor per week increased 0.5%, which was primarily attributable to average miles per seated tractor increasing 0.2% from the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Our average seated line haul tractors increased to 3,024 tractors in the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to 2,736 tractors for the same period a year ago. The net change of 288 units is comprised of a 277-unit increase in independent contractor tractors and an 11-unit increase in company tractors. The number of tractors operated by independent contractors increased 68.7% from a year ago, and now represents 22.5% of our total fleet.

Revenue and Expenses

We primarily generate revenue by transporting freight for our customers. Generally, we are paid a predetermined rate per mile or per load for our services. We enhance our revenue by charging for tractor and trailer detention, loading and unloading activities, brokerage operations, and other specialized services, as well as through the collection of fuel surcharges to mitigate the impact of the cost of fuel. The main factors that affect our revenue are the revenue per mile we receive from our customers, the percentage of miles for which we are compensated, and the number of miles we generate with our equipment. These factors relate to, among other things, the general level of economic activity in the United States, inventory levels, specific customer demand, the level of capacity in the trucking industry, and driver availability.

The main factors that impact our profitability in terms of expenses are the variable costs of transporting freight for our customers. These costs include fuel expense, driver-related expenses, such as wages, benefits, training and recruitment, and independent contractor and third party carrier costs, which are recorded on the "Purchased Transportation" line of our consolidated statements of income. Expenses that have both fixed and variable components include maintenance, insurance, and claims. These expenses generally vary with the miles we travel, but also have a controllable component based on safety, fleet age, efficiency, and other factors. Our main fixed costs are the acquisition and depreciation of long-term assets, such as revenue equipment and the compensation of non-driver personnel.  We believe effectively controlling our expenses and managing our net cost of revenue equipment acquisitions and dispositions, including any related gains or losses, are important elements of assuring our profitability. We evaluate our profitability using operating ratio, excluding the impact of fuel surcharge revenue (operating expenses, net of fuel surcharge, expressed as a percentage of revenue, before fuel surcharge), and income before income taxes, which eliminates shifting operating lease expenses "above the line" from interest expense on owned or capital leased equipment.

(1) Freight revenue is total revenue less fuel surcharges. In this table, fuel surcharges are eliminated from revenue and subtracted from fuel expense. Fuel surcharges were $33.1 million and $31.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 to Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

Total revenue increased by $21.8 million, or 14.2%, to $175.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from $153.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Freight revenue increased by $19.9 million, or 16.3%, to $142.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from $122.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. This increase was attributable to an increase in loaded miles to 71.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 from 66.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as well as an increase in revenue per loaded mile to $1.597 for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 from $1.562 for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The increase in loaded miles was also the result of an increase in average seated line-haul tractors to 3,024 in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from 2,736 in the first quarter of 2013, with the increase being attributable to improved driver recruiting efforts, including our driving school, and fleets integrated as the result of acquisitions. Additionally, we had a slight increase in miles per seated truck of 0.2% versus the first quarter of fiscal 2013. This combination of factors resulted in a slight increase in average revenue per seated tractor per week, which is our primary measure of asset productivity, of $2,913 in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from $2,899 for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.

Revenue for our asset-light-based segment increased to $12.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 from $10.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, primarily based on increases in our warehousing and LTL revenues. We expect our asset-light business to sustain moderate revenue growth going forward.

Fuel surcharge revenue increased to $33.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 from $31.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, primarily based on an increase in loaded miles.

In discussing our results of operations, we use freight revenue ("revenue") and fuel, net of fuel surcharge, because we believe that eliminating the impact of this sometimes volatile source of revenue affords more consistent basis for comparing our results of operations from period to period.

Salaries, wages, and employee benefits were $46.7 million, or 26.7% of total revenue and 32.9% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to $40.4 million, or 26.3% of total revenue and 33.1% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The increase in absolute dollars was the result of an increase in employee benefit costs, administrative wages, and increased recruiting expense attributable to our driving school and other recruitment efforts. These increased costs were offset by a decrease in the percentage of our fleet comprised of Company drivers as we continue to grow our fleet of independent contractors. Increasing independent contractor capacity has shifted (and assuming all other factors remain equal, is expected to continue to shift) expenses to the purchased transportation line item with offsetting reductions in employee driver wages and related expenses, net of fuel (as independent contractors generate fuel surcharge revenue, while the related cost of their fuel is included with their compensation in purchased transportation), maintenance, and capital costs.

Fuel expenses, without reduction for fuel surcharge revenue, decreased to $36.8 million, or 21.0% of total revenue, for the first quarter fiscal 2014, compared to $37.5 million, or 24.4% of total revenue, for the first quarter fiscal 2013.Fuel expenses, net of fuel surcharge revenue, decreased to $3.7 million, or 2.6% of revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to $6.3 million, or 5.1% of revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. These decreases were attributable to a decrease in the weekly on-highway diesel prices of $0.039 per gallon, from $3.954 to $3.915, partially offset by the increase in total miles in the fiscal 2014 period compared to the fiscal 2013 period. We expect that our continued efforts to reduce idling, operate more fuel-efficient tractors, and utilize aerodynamic trailer skirts will continue to have a positive impact on our miles per gallon. However, we expect this positive impact to be partially offset by lower fuel economy on EPA-mandated new engines and use of more costly ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel.

Purchased transportation increased to $41.7 million, or 23.8% of total revenues and 29.4% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from $28.3 million, or 18.5% of total revenue and 23.2% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The increase is primarily related to increases in our independent contractor expense due to an increase in independent contractor miles for the fiscal 2014 period compared to the fiscal 2013 period. Independent contractors are drivers who cover all their operating expenses (fuel, driver salaries, maintenance, and equipment costs) for a fixed payment per mile.We also had increases in intermodal transportation expense and third party logistic provider expense offset by a decrease in brokerage expense. We expect purchased transportation to increase as we continue our efforts to increase the number of independent contractors in our fleet and continue to increase our purchased transportation for brokerage and intermodal transportation.

16

Operations and maintenance increased to $11.3 million, or 6.4% of total revenue and 7.9% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from $8.1 million, or 5.3% of total revenue and 6.6% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Operations and maintenance consist of direct operating expense, maintenance, and tire expense. These increases in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 are primarily related to increases in costs associated with maintenance of tractors and equipment added due to acquisitions. We believe the maintenance costs associated with equipment acquired through our acquisitions will decrease as we replace this equipment with new equipment or underutilized equipment from our existing fleet. As an offset to these increases, tire related expenses have decreased as we are bringing on fewer new tires and have written off older tires relating to equipment sold.

Insurance and claims expense increased to $4.1 million, or 2.4% of total revenue and 2.9% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from $3.5 million, or 2.3% of total revenue or 2.9% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Insurance consists of premiums for liability, physical damage, cargo damage, and workers' compensation insurance, in addition to claims expense. Our insurance program involves self-insurance at various risk retention levels. Claims in excess of these risk levels are covered by insurance in amounts we consider to be adequate. We accrue for the uninsured portion of claims based on known claims and historical experience. We continually revise and change our insurance program to maintain a balance between premium expense and the risk retention we are willing to assume.  We anticipate insurance and claims expense will vary based primarily on the frequency and severity of claims, the level of self-retention, and the premium expense.

Depreciation and amortization, consisting primarily of depreciation of revenue equipment, increased to $14.9 million, or 8.5% of total revenue and 10.5% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to $12.7 million, or 8.3% of total revenue and 10.4% of freight revenue, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.  These increases were primarily attributable to an increase in owned tractors and a reduction in gain on sale of equipment in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, which included expenses to prepare the equipment for sale.  We expect some of these expenses to persist going forward as we prepare to replace equipment obtained through our recent acquisitions. Revenue equipment held under operating leases is not reflected on our balance sheet and the expenses related to such equipment are reflected on our statements of income in revenue equipment rentals, rather than in depreciation and amortization and interest expense, as is the case for revenue equipment that is financed with borrowings or capital leases. We expect minimal gains from the sale of equipment for the remainder of fiscal 2014 given our current position in our tractor and trailer refresh cycle. Accordingly, depreciation and amortization should increase versus the prior year period.

All of our other operating expenses are relatively minor in amount, and there were no significant changes in such expenses. Accordingly, we have not provided a detailed discussion of such expenses.

Income taxes decreased to $4.0 million, with an effective tax rate of 37.8%, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, from $5.3 million, with an effective tax rate of 39.3%, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. We believe our effective tax rate will remain at a similar level going forward. As pre-tax net income increases, our non-deductible expenses, such as per diem expense, have a lesser impact on our effective rate.  Furthermore, the effective rate in foreign countries is lower than that in the United States, therefore as our percentage of income attributable to foreign income changes, our total income tax effective rate will also change.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Trucking is a capital-intensive business. We require cash to fund our operating expenses (other than depreciation and amortization), to make capital expenditures and acquisitions, and to repay debt, including principal and interest payments. Other than ordinary operating expenses, we anticipate that capital expenditures for the acquisition of revenue equipment will constitute our primary cash requirement over the next twelve months. We have recently completed several acquisitions, and we frequently consider additional potential acquisitions. If we were to engage in additional acquisitions, our cash requirements would increase and we may have to modify our expected financing sources for the purchase of equipment. Subject to any required lender approval, we may make acquisitions in the future. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations, bank borrowings, capital and operating lease financing of revenue equipment, and proceeds from the sale of used revenue equipment. At September 30, 2013, our total balance sheet debt, including capital lease obligations and current maturities, was $314.4 million, compared to $294.4 million at June 30, 2013.

17

As of September 30, 2013, we had a capital commitment for revenue equipment of $18.6 million for delivery through fiscal 2014. These capital commitments are amounts before considering the proceeds of equipment dispositions. In fiscal 2014, we expect to purchase our new tractors and trailers with a combination of cash, capital leases, and off-balance sheet operating leases. Considering the recent completion of our fleet refresh cycle, we do not expect to make immediate increases in capital expenditures for the purchase of new revenue equipment. We do expect, however, to make moderate investments in new equipment as necessary to replace the older equipment we have obtained through our acquisitions.

In May 2013, we increased our credit facility and extended the maturity.  At September 30, 2013, we were authorized to borrow up to $200.0 million under this credit facility, which expires May 2018. The applicable interest rate under this agreement is based on either a base rate equal to Bank of America, N.A.'s prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 0.75% and 1.375% that is adjusted quarterly based on our lease adjusted total debt to EBITDAR ratio. At September 30, 2013, we had $102.5 million in outstanding borrowings related to our credit facility and $0.8 million utilized for letters of credit. The agreement is collateralized by the assets of all the U.S. subsidiaries of the Company. We are obligated to comply with certain financial covenants under our credit agreement and we were in compliance with these covenants at September 30, 2013. We believe that our reduced need for capital expenditures in the near future will allow us to make reductions in our outstanding debt going forward.

We believe we will be able to fund our operating expenses, as well as our current commitments for the acquisition of revenue equipment over the next twelve months, with a combination of cash generated from operations, borrowings available under our primary credit facility, and lease financing arrangements. We will continue to have significant capital requirements over the long term, and the availability of the needed capital will depend upon our financial condition, operating results, and numerous other factors over which we have limited or no control, including prevailing market conditions and the market price of our common stock. However, based on our operating results, anticipated future cash flows, current availability under our credit facility, and sources of equipment lease financing that we expect will be available to us, we do not expect to experience significant liquidity constraints in the foreseeable future.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operations for the three months ended September 30, 2013, was $15.9 million, compared to $19.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Cash provided by operations decreased primarily due to a reduction in net income, decrease in accounts payable, and accrued expenses and the change in deferred taxes offset by the change in taxes payable.

Net cash used in investing activities was $20.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $58.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Cash used in investing activities includes the net cash effect of acquisitions and dispositions of property and revenue equipment during each period. Capital expenditures for property and equipment totaled $19.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and $63.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012.  This decrease is related to our position in our fleet refresh cycle compared to the prior year. We generated proceeds from the sale of property and equipment of $8.8 million and $28.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and September 30, 2012, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $8.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to a decrease in net borrowings on our line of credit offset by a decrease in capital lease payments.

Cash dividends paid for the three months ended September 30, 2013, was approximately $0.5 million, or $0.02 per share. We currently expect to continue to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future. Future payment of cash dividends, and the amount of any such dividends, will depend upon our financial condition, results of operations, cash requirements, tax treatment, and certaincorporate law requirements, as well as other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Operating leases have been an important source of financing for our revenue equipment. Our operating leases include some under which we do not guarantee the value of the asset at the end of the lease term ("walk-away leases") and some under which we do guarantee the value of the asset at the end of the lease term ("residual value"). Therefore, we are subject to the risk that equipment values may decline, in which case we would suffer a loss upon disposition and be required to make cash payments because of the residual value guarantees.  At September 30, 2013, we were obligated for residual value guarantees related to operating leases of $22.6 million, compared to $25.9 million at September 30, 2012. We believe that any residual payment obligations will be satisfied by the value of the related equipment at the end of the lease. To the extent the expected value at the lease termination date is lower than the residual value guarantee; we would accrue for the difference over the remaining lease term. We anticipate that going forward we will primarily use a combination of cash generated from operations and capital leases to finance tractor and trailer purchases.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that management make a number of assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. These estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions that affect, or could affect, our financial statements materially and involve a significant level of judgment by management. The accounting policies we deem most critical to use include revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation, claims accrual, and accounting for income taxes. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to those disclosed in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation," included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Seasonality

In the trucking industry, revenue generally decreases as customers reduce shipments during the winter holiday season and as inclement weather impedes operations.  At the same time, operating expenses generally increase, with fuel efficiency declining because of engine idling and inclement weather.  We have substantial operations in the Midwestern and Eastern United States and Canada.  For the reasons stated, in those geographic regions in particular, third quarter net income historically has been lower than net income in each of the other three quarters of the year, excluding charges.  Our equipment utilization typically improves substantially between May and October of each year because of seasonal increased shipping and better weather.  Also, during September and October, business generally increases as a result of increased retail merchandise shipped in anticipation of the holidays.

Item 3.                 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We experience various market risks, including fluctuations in interest rates, variability in currency exchange rates, and fuel prices. We have established policies, procedures and internal processes governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage our exposure to such risks.

Interest Rate Risk. We are exposed to interest rate risk principally from our primary credit facility. The credit facility carries a variable interest rate equal to either Bank of America, N.A.'s prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 0.75% and 1.375% that is adjusted quarterly based on the Company's lease adjusted total debt to EBITDAR ratio.  At September 30, 2013, the interest rate for revolving borrowings under our credit facility was 0.93%.  At September 30, 2013, we had $102.5 million variable rate term loan borrowings outstanding under the credit facility.  A hypothetical 10.0% increase in the bank's base rate and LIBOR would be immaterial to our net income.

Currency Exchange Rate Risk. We are subject to variability in foreign currency exchange rates in our international operations. Exposure to this variability is periodically managed primarily through the use of natural hedges, whereby funding obligations and assets are both managed in the local currency. We enter into currency exchange agreements from time-to-time to manage our exposure arising from fluctuating exchange rates related to specific and forecasted transactions. We operate this program pursuant to documented corporate risk management policies and do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

Our currency risk consists primarily of foreign currency, denominated firm commitments, and forecasted foreign currency denominated intercompany and third party transactions. At September 30, 2013, we had outstanding foreign exchange derivative contracts in notional amounts of $21.5 million with the fair value of these contracts approximately $0.1 million more than the original contract value. Derivative gains or losses, initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income, are reclassified to earnings in the period when the forecasted transaction affects earnings.

Assuming revenue and expenses for our Canadian operations are identical to that in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 (both in terms of amount and currency mix), we estimate that a $0.01 decrease in the Canadian dollar exchange rate would reduce our annual net income by approximately $179,000. Also, we estimate that a $0.01 decrease in the Mexican peso exchange rate would reduce our annual net income by approximately $206,000.

Commodity Price Risk. Shortages of fuel, increases in prices, or rationing of petroleum products can have a materially adverse effect on our operations and profitability.  Fuel is subject to economic, political, and market factors that are outside of our control. We believe fuel surcharges are effective at mitigating most, but not all, of the risk of high fuel price because we do not recover the full amount of fuel price increases. In fiscal 2013, we entered into contracts to hedge up to 0.1 million gallons per month ending on December 31, 2013.  This represents approximately 4.0% of our monthly projected fuel requirements through December 2013.  At September 30, 2013, we had outstanding contracts in place for a notional amount of $1.0 million with the fair value of these contracts approximately $0.1 million more than the original contract value. Derivative gains or losses, initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income, are reclassified to earnings in the period when the forecasted transaction affects earnings.  Based on our expected fuel consumption for fiscal 2014, a 10.0% change in the related price of heating oil or diesel per gallon would not have a material financial impact, assuming no further changes to our fuel hedging program or our fuel surcharge recovery.

Item 4.                 Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers (referred to in this report as the "Certifying Officers"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply judgment in evaluating our controls and procedures.

Prior to the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Certifying Officers, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (the "Evaluation") as of the last day of the period covered by such filing.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II.                 Other Information

Item 1.                 Legal Proceedings

We are party to certain lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. We are currently not party to any proceedings which will have a material adverse effect.

Item 1A.              Risk Factors

While we attempt to identify, manage, and mitigate risks and uncertainties associated with our business, some level of risk and uncertainty will always be present. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013, in the section entitled Item 1A. Risk Factors, describes some of the risks and uncertainties associated with our business. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, projected results, and future prospects.

Item 2.                 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

We are obligated to comply with certain financial covenants under our credit agreement.  Our credit agreement also places certain limitations on our ability to pay dividends, including a $5,000,000 cap on cash dividend payments during any fiscal year.

Item 3.                 Defaults Upon Senior Securities
