Hub Group, Inc. Reports Record Third Quarter 2007 Earnings

DOWNERS GROVE, IL, October 22, 2007, -- Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HUBG) today reported record income for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 of $16.6 million, a 23% increase versus income for the third quarter of 2006. Hub Group’s diluted earnings per share was $0.42 for the third quarter of 2007.  This represents an increase of 27% compared to last year's third quarter diluted earnings per share of $0.33.  Hub Group’s operating margin increased to 5.9% in 2007 from 5.1% in 2006 due to improved operational efficiencies and cost controls.

Hub Group’s revenue decreased 3.3% to $417.8 million compared to $432.0 million in the third quarter of 2006.  Third quarter intermodal revenue decreased 4.9% to $303.3 million.  The decrease was attributable to a 2% volume decline and a 3% decrease related to price and mix.  Truck brokerage revenue was flat at $77.1 million this quarter.  Third quarter logistics revenue increased 4.1% to $37.4 million.  Gross margin increased 0.3% to $57.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2006.

Hub Group also announced that it has terminated its acquisition of DNJ Transportation.  The closing was expected to occur around the beginning of October but was subject to certain conditions and approvals.  Several of these conditions were not met and therefore Hub elected not to proceed with the transaction.



FULL YEAR 2007

We expect that the earnings for 2007 will be within a range of $1.39 to $1.44 per diluted share.
