On February 9, 2023, U.S. Xpress Enterprises, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), issued a press release
announcing its financial and operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022. A copy of the earnings release was furnished with a Current Report on Form 8-K on February 9, 2023 (the “Original Form 8-K”). This Amendment
No. 1 on Form 8-K/A is being filed to amend Item 2.02 and Item 9.01 of the Original Form 8-K, solely for the purpose of updating certain financial and operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, based upon

On February 10, 2023, following the issuance of the press release announcing the Company’s financial and operating results
for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, and the filing of the Original Form 8-K, the Company reached a settlement in principle with the representatives of the plaintiff class in a class action lawsuit against the Company and a
subsidiary in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California (the “California Class Action”). More information on the California Class Action can be found in Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 3, 2022, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The settlement is subject to Court approval, and upon approval the Company will pay approximately $4.7 million before tax. The expected settlement
results in the following updates of the Company’s financial and operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022:
