NOTES TO UNAUDITED

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. Interim Financial Statements

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Hub Group, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our” or “Company”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations.  However, we believe that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The financial statements reflect, in our opinion, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present our financial position as of June 30, 2019 and results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.  Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.  Results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year due partially to seasonality.

NOTE 2. Acquisition  

On December 3, 2018, a subsidiary of Hub Group, Inc. closed on the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire CaseStack, Inc. (“CaseStack”).  Total consideration for the transaction was $252.9 million.  To facilitate the acquisition we paid $249.4 million in cash, of which $248.7 million was paid in December of 2018 and $0.7 million in April 2019, there was also a deferred purchase consideration of $3.5 million.  The deferred purchase consideration is included in Accrued Other in our consolidated balance sheet and is being paid equally over twenty-four months.  

The acquisition of CaseStack expanded our logistics service offering to include transportation and warehousing consolidation solutions for consumer packaged goods companies selling into the North American retail channel.  The acquisition also added scale to our truck brokerage service offering, particularly in the less-than-truckload segment of the market.

The following table summarizes the total purchase price allocated to the net assets acquired (in thousands):

Cash paid	$	249,389
Deferred purchase consideration		3,469
Total consideration	$	252,858

The following table summarizes the allocation of the total consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the acquisition (in thousands):

Accounts receivable trade	$	31,896
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		694
Property and equipment		3,247
Deferred tax assets		6,433
Goodwill		166,070
Other intangibles		75,600
Other assets		120
Total assets acquired	$	284,060
Accounts payable trade	$	24,542
Accrued payroll		2,811
Accrued other		3,849
Total liabilities assumed	$	31,202
Total consideration	$	252,858

The CaseStack acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations.”  Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their fair values as of December 3, 2018 with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill.  The goodwill recognized in the CaseStack acquisition was primarily attributable to potential expansion and future development of the acquired business.

7

Tax history and attributes including net operating loss carryovers and other deferred tax assets are inherited in an equity purchase such as this, while goodwill is not tax deductible.

The components of “Other intangibles” listed in the above table as of the acquisition date are as follows (in thousands):

			Accumulated		Balance at		Estimated Useful
	Amount		Amortization		June 30, 2019		Life
Customer relationships - logistics services	$	65,600	$	3,827	$	61,773	10 years
Customer relationships - transportation services	$	8,700	$	1,015	$	7,685	5 years
Trade name	$	1,300	$	506	$	794	18 months

The above intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method.  Amortization expense related to this acquisition for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 was $2.3 million and $4.6 million.  The intangible assets have a weighted average useful life of approximately 9 years.  Amortization expense related to CaseStack for the next five years is as follows (in thousands):

	Total
Remainder 2019	$	4,584
2020	$	8,661
2021	$	8,300
2022	$	8,300
2023	$	8,155

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations presents the effects of CaseStack as though it had been acquired as of January 1, 2018 (in thousands, except for per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2018		June 30, 2018
Revenue	$	955,180	$	1,853,199
Income from continuing operations	$	18,771	$	32,086
Earnings per share (1)
Basic	$	0.56	$	0.96
Diluted	$	0.56	$	0.96

(1) Earnings per share is from continuing operations.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results for the periods shown were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and are based on the historical financial information of Hub and CaseStack. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to the pro forma adjustments that are: (i) directly attributable to the acquisition, (ii) factually supportable and (iii) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results are not necessarily indicative of what our consolidated results of operations actually would have been had we completed the acquisition on January 1, 2018.

NOTE 3. Discontinued Operations

On August 31, 2018, Hub Group, Inc. entered into the Purchase Agreement with Mode Transportation, LLC (“Mode”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Mode Purchaser, Inc., an affiliate of York Capital Management (“Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Mode to Purchaser (the “Disposition”). Total consideration received by the Company for the Disposition in the third quarter of 2018 was $238.5 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments.  An additional $19.4 million consideration receivable was recorded in other receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheet in the fourth quarter of 2018 due to the settlement of the net working capital and other contractual adjustments.  The $19.4 million consideration receivable was  received in the first quarter of 2019.

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, Mode had revenue of $18.0 million from Hub and Hub had revenue of $5.3 million from Mode.  During the six months ended June 30, 2018 Mode LLC had revenue of $31.5 million from Hub and Hub had revenue of $15.2 million from Mode LLC.  These sales were eliminated on our Consolidated Statements of Income.  In connection with the Disposition, the Company and Mode entered into a transition services agreement pursuant to which both the Company and Mode provided certain immaterial transition services to the other party.  The agreement was completed during the second quarter of 2019.

The 2018 results associated with Mode are classified as income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in our Consolidated Statements of Income.  Income from discontinued operations is comprised of the following:

NOTE 4. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On January 1, 2018, we adopted the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.  

9

The Company capitalizes commissions incurred in connection with obtaining a contract.  Capitalized commission fees are amortized based on the transfer of services to which the assets relate and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.  In 2019 and 2018, the amount of commissions that were capitalized and the related amortization were both immaterial.

Costs incurred to obtain an intermodal, truck brokerage or logistics contract are expensed as incurred according to the practical expedient that allows contract acquisition costs to be recognized immediately if the deferral period is one year or less.  

Hub offers comprehensive multimodal solutions including intermodal, truck brokerage, logistics and dedicated services. Hub has full time employees located throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Intermodal. As an intermodal provider, we arrange for the movement of our customers’ freight in containers and trailers, typically over long distances of 750 miles or more. We contract with railroads to provide transportation for the long-haul portion of the shipment between rail terminals.  Local pickup and delivery services between origin or destination and rail terminals (referred to as “drayage”) are provided by our HGT subsidiary and third-party local trucking companies.

Truck Brokerage. We operate one of the largest truck brokerage operations, providing customers with an over the road service option for their transportation needs. Our brokerage does not operate any trucks; instead we match customers’ needs with carriers’ capacity to provide the most effective service and price combination. We have contracts with a substantial base of carriers allowing us to meet the varied needs of our customers.

Logistics. Hub’s logistics business operates under the names Unyson Logistics and CaseStack. Unyson Logistics is comprised of a network of logistics professionals dedicated to developing, implementing and operating customized logistics solutions for customers. Unyson Logistics offers a wide range of transportation management services and technology solutions including shipment optimization, load consolidation, mode selection, carrier management, load planning and execution and web-based shipment visibility. Our multi-modal transportation capabilities include small parcel, heavyweight, expedited, less-than-truckload, truckload, intermodal, railcar and international shipping. Our CaseStack logistics business leverages proprietary technology along with collaborative relationships with retailers and logistics providers to deliver cost savings and performance-enhancing supply chain services to consumer-packaged goods clients.  CaseStack contracts with third-party warehouse providers in seven markets across North America to which its customers ship their goods to be stored and eventually consolidated, along with goods from other CaseStack customers, into full truckload shipments destined to major North American retailers.  CaseStack offers its customers shipment visibility, transportation cost savings, high service levels and compliance with retailers’ increasingly stringent supply chain requirements.

Dedicated Trucking. Our dedicated operation contracts with customers who seek to outsource a portion of their trucking transportation needs. We offer a dedicated fleet of equipment and drivers to each customer, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations. Contracts with customers generally include fixed and variable pricing arrangements and may include charges for early termination which serves to reduce the financial risk we bear with respect to the utilization of our equipment.

Under the May 28, 2019 authorization from the Company’s Board of Directors, in July 2019, we purchased an additional 444,509 shares of our Class A Common Stock for $17.7 million.

NOTE 6. Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.  As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate borrowings was $4.5 million more and $0.4 million less than the historical carrying value of $297.8 million and $330.8 million.  The fair value of the fixed-rate borrowings was estimated using an income approach based on current interest rates available to the Company for borrowings on similar terms and maturities.

We consider as cash equivalents all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less.  As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our cash and temporary investments were with high quality financial institutions in demand deposit accounts (DDAs), savings accounts and an interest bearing checking account.

Restricted investments, as of June 30, 2019 of $22.0 million and December 31, 2018 of $19.2 million, included mutual funds which are reported at fair value.    

Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on valuation techniques which consider prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. These valuation methods are based on either quoted market prices (Level 1) or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2), or unobservable inputs (Level 3). Cash and cash equivalents, mutual funds, accounts receivable and accounts payable are defined as “Level 1,” while long-term debt is defined as “Level 2” of the fair value hierarchy in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification.   

NOTE 7. Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements

At June 30, 2019, we were authorized to borrow up to $350 million under a revolving line of credit.  We have standby letters of credit that expire at various dates in 2019 and 2020.  As of June 30, 2019, our letters of credit were $29.7 million and we had no borrowings

11

under our bank revolving line of credit. Our unused and available borrowings were $320.3 million as of June 30, 2019 and $323.0 million as of December 31, 2018.  We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of June 30, 2019.

We have entered into various Equipment Notes (“Notes”) for the purchase of tractors, trailers and containers.  The Notes are secured by the underlying equipment financed in the agreements.

NOTE 8. Leases, User Charges and Commitments

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASC 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”) which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a lease obligation for all leases. We adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019, in accordance with the standard.  ASC 842 provides an option to apply the transition provisions as of the effective date.  We elected this option when we adopted the new standard using a modified retrospective transition method and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption rather than in the earliest period presented. In addition, we elected to apply a package of practical expedients and as such did not reassess at the date of initial adoption (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, or (3) initial direct costs for existing leases.  Lessees can also make an accounting policy election to not recognize an asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less which we elected.

As of June 30, 2019, Hub recognized $39.2 million of ROU assets and $40.2 million of Lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet.  The lease liabilities recognized are measured based upon the present value of minimum future payments. The ROU assets are equal to lease liabilities, adjusted for prepaid and accrued rent balances which are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Hub currently does not have any variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate (such as the Consumer Price Index or a market interest rate). Some leases have options to extend or terminate the agreement, which Management assesses in determining the estimated lease term.  If any of the options to extend a lease are exercised, this change will be reflected as a remeasurement of the ROU asset and lease liability accordingly.  As of June 30, 2019, the ROU asset and lease liabilities do not reflect any options to extend or terminate a lease as management is not reasonably certain it will exercise any of these options.  Also, current leases do not contain any restrictions or covenants imposed by the leases or residual value guarantees.

Occasionally, Hub will sublease office space or parking spaces. The subleases do not relieve Hub of any of its primary obligations under the original agreement.  Currently, Hub has subleases with an expected annual income totaling $0.6 million.

12

As of June 30, 2019, Hub signed new property lease contracts which have not commenced.  Based on the present value of the lease payments, the estimated ROU assets and lease liabilities related to these contracts will total approximately $17.6 million.

Discount rates are not specified on the individual lease contracts at their commencement dates. To determine the present value of the lease payments, Hub used its incremental borrowing rate which was determined based on Hub’s credit standing and factoring in the current 12-month LIBOR rate published at the time of the lease commencement. This incremental borrowing rate represents the rate of interest that Hub would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and amounts equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

The following table summarizes the lease costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 (in thousands), which are included in general and administrative costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of income:

NOTE 9. Internal-Use Software

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing (Hosting) Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The amendment aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The amendment is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for all entities and should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. We early adopted the amendment in the fourth quarter of 2018 and applied prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption.

In accordance with this ASU, we had capitalized implementation costs of $13.8 million and $10.6 million from our hosting arrangements, net of amortizations, for various corporate software services as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.   Prior to adoption, these costs were previously presented as part of Property and equipment and are included in Other assets in the consolidated balance sheet subsequent to adoption.  The amount of capitalized implementation costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $2.0 million and $3.6 million.  The corresponding cash flows from capitalized implementation costs incurred in our hosting arrangements is classified as a change in other assets in cash flows from operating activities. The capitalized implementation costs incurred in our hosting arrangements are amortized, once ready for intended use, over the term of the associated hosting arrangements of 3 to 10 years.  The related amortization of capitalized implementation costs are classified as general and administrative expense in the same line item as the expense for fees for the associated hosting arrangement.

NOTE 10. Legal Matters  

We are a defendant in three putative class-action lawsuits in which the plaintiffs are current and former California-based drivers who allege claims for unpaid wages, failure to provide meal and rest periods, and other items.  Those cases are Robert Parsons v. Estenson Logistics, LLC, et.al. (Sacramento Superior Court), a second lawsuit Robert Parsons v. Estenson Logistics, LLC (Sacramento Superior Court), and Mario Mendez v. Estenson Logistics, LLC (Los Angeles Superior Court). Because of the preliminary nature of these proceedings, the difficulty in ascertaining the applicable facts, the inconsistent treatment of claims made in the proceedings, and the difficulty of predicting the settlement value of these proceedings, we are not able to estimate an amount or range of any reasonably possible losses.  Based on management's present knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from these 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.

Robles

On January 25, 2013, a complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California (Sacramento Division) by Salvador Robles against our subsidiary Hub Group Trucking, Inc (“HGT”).  The action is brought on behalf of a class comprised of present and former California-based truck drivers for HGT who were classified as independent contractors, from January 2009 to August 2014.  It alleges HGT has misclassified such drivers as independent contractors and that such drivers were employees.  It asserts various violations of the California Labor Code and claims that HGT has engaged in unfair competition practices.  The complaint seeks, among other things, declaratory and injunctive relief, monetary damages and attorney’s fees.  In May 2013, the complaint was amended to add similar claims based on Mr. Robles’ status as an employed company driver.  These additional claims are only on behalf of Mr. Robles and not a putative class.

The Company believes that the California independent contractor truck drivers were properly classified as independent contractors at all times.  Nevertheless, because lawsuits are expensive, time-consuming and could interrupt our business operations, HGT decided to make settlement offers to individual drivers with respect to the claims alleged in this lawsuit, without admitting liability.  As of June 30, 2019, 96% of the California drivers have accepted the settlement offers.  In late 2014, HGT decided to convert its model from independent contractors to employee drivers in California (the “Conversion”).  In early 2016, HGT closed its operations in Southern California.

14

On April 3, 2015, the Robles case was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Tennessee (Western Division) in Memphis.  In May 2015, the plaintiffs in the Robles case filed a Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”) which names 334 current and former Hub Group Trucking drivers as “interested putative class members.”  In addition to reasserting their existing claims, the SAC includes claims post-Conversion, added two new plaintiffs and seeks a judicial declaration that the settlement agreements are unenforceable.  In June 2015, Hub Group Trucking filed a motion to dismiss the SAC and on July 19, 2016, Hub Group Trucking’s motion to dismiss was granted in part, and denied in part, by the District Court.  The motion to dismiss was granted for the claims of all purported class members who have signed settlement agreements and on plaintiffs’ claims based on quantum merit and it was denied with respect to federal preemption and choice of law.  On August 11, 2016, Plaintiffs filed a motion to clarify whether the Court’s dismissal of the claims of all purported class members who signed settlement agreements was with or without prejudice and, if the dismissal was with prejudice, Plaintiffs moved the Court to revise and reconsider the order.  On July 2, 2018, the Court denied the Plaintiffs’ Motion for Clarification or Reconsideration and stated that the dismissal of the claims of all purported class members who signed settlement agreements was with prejudice.

Adame

On August 5, 2015, the Plaintiffs’ law firm in the Robles case filed a lawsuit in state court in San Bernardino County, California on behalf of 63 named Plaintiffs against Hub Group Trucking and five Company employees.  The lawsuit alleges claims similar to those being made in Robles and seeks monetary penalties under the Private Attorneys General Act.  Of the 63 named Plaintiffs, at least 58 of them previously accepted the settlement offers referenced above.

On October 29, 2015, Defendants filed a notice of removal to move the case from state court in San Bernardino to federal court in the Central District of California. On November 19, 2015, Plaintiffs filed a motion to remand the case back to state court, claiming that the federal court lacks jurisdiction over the case because there is not complete diversity of citizenship between the parties and the amount in controversy threshold is not satisfied.  The court granted Plaintiffs’ motion to remand to the state court in San Bernardino County on April 7, 2016.

On July 11, 2016, Defendants filed dismissal papers in state court, asking the court to dismiss Plaintiffs’ suit for various reasons, including that the agreement between HGT and its former California owner operators requires that this action be brought in Memphis, Tennessee, or stay the action pending the outcome of Robles. Defendants also asked the court to dismiss the individual defendants because PAGA’s language does not allow for individual liability.  During a hearing on October 5, 2016, the judge issued an oral tentative ruling stating that the choice of forum provision was unenforceable.  On February 17, 2017, with the stipulation of the parties, the Court entered an order dismissing, without prejudice, all of the individual Defendants and accepting the parties’ agreement that jurisdiction and venue are proper in the San Bernardino Superior Court and that Defendants will not seek to remove the case to federal district court.  On April 12, 2017, the Court denied Defendant’s motion to dismiss based on insufficiency of the PAGA letter notice.  On October 19, 2017, Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, dismissing the previously named individuals as Defendants.  On December 4, 2017, Defendants filed an Answer to Plaintiffs’ First Amended Complaint and a Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of their Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings arguing that judgement should be entered for Defendants because Plaintiffs’ claims are preempted by the Federal Truth-In-Leasing regulations.  On January 31, 2018, a hearing was held on the motion to dismiss, and on February 1, 2018, the motion was denied.  On March 27, 2018, Defendants filed a petition for a writ of mandate with the Court of Appeals.  On June 12, 2018, the Court of Appeals denied the petition.  On June 21, 2018, Defendants filed a petition for review with the California Supreme Court.  On August 8, 2018, the Supreme Court of California denied the petition for review.

NOTE 11. New Accounting Pronouncements

In 2016, the FASB issued ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, (“ASC 326”) that requires credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, not based on incurred losses.  The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 is permitted. We plan to adopt this standard on January 1, 2020, as required.  We do not believe the adoption of ASC 326 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements as the new guidance is consistent with our current accounting policy in determining expected credit losses on financial assets.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles – Goodwill and other (Topic 350): simplifying the test for goodwill impairment. This ASU simplifies how all entities assess goodwill for impairment by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. As amended, the goodwill impairment test will consist of one step comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.  The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.  We plan to adopt this standard on January 1, 2020, as required.  We do not believe the adoption of Topic 350 will have a material effect on our financial statements.

15

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.  Under this new standard, companies will no longer be required to value non-employee awards differently from employee awards.  This means that companies will value all equity classified awards at their grant-date and forgo revaluing the award after this date.  The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  This standard was adopted on January 1, 2019 and had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We offer a dedicated fleet of equipment and drivers, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customers’ high service expectations.  As of June 30, 2019, Dedicated leased or owned approximately 1,300 tractors and 5,200 trailers and employed approximately 1,800 drivers.

Our logistics line of business consists of complex transportation management services, including load consolidation, mode optimization and carrier management.  These service offerings are designed to take advantage of the increasing trend for shippers to outsource all or a greater portion of their transportation needs.  Our acquisition of CaseStack added consolidation and warehousing services that are marketed to consumer-packaged goods companies who serve the North American retail channel.

As of June 30, 2019, our subsidiary HGT accounted for 54% of Hub’s drayage needs by assisting us in providing reliable, cost effective intermodal services to our customers.  As of June 30, 2019, HGT leased or owned approximately 1,200 tractors and 200 trailers, employed approximately 1,300 drivers and contracted with approximately 1,300 owner-operators.  

Hub has full time marketing representatives throughout North America who service local, regional and national accounts.  We believe that fostering long-term customer relationships is critical to our success and allows us to better understand our customers’ needs and specifically tailor our transportation services to them.

Hub’s multimodal solutions group works with pricing, account management and operations to enhance Hub’s customer margins across all lines of business.  We are working on margin enhancement projects including pricing optimization, matching of inbound and outbound loads, reducing empty miles, improving our recovery of accessorial costs, optimizing our drayage costs, reducing repositioning costs, providing holistic solutions and reviewing and improving low profit freight.

Hub’s top 50 customers represent approximately 67% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019. We use various performance indicators to manage our business. We closely monitor margin and gains and losses for our top 50 customers. We also evaluate on-time performance, customer service, cost per load and daily sales outstanding by customer account. Vendor cost changes and vendor service issues are also monitored closely.

Strategic Transactions

On August 31, 2018, we sold the membership interests of our Mode subsidiary to an affiliate of York Capital Management (“Purchaser”).  Mode’s temperature protected division (“Temstar”) was not included in the transaction and is now included in our intermodal line of business.  

Prior to the decision to sell Mode, Hub historically reported two distinct and reportable business segments.  As a result of the decision to sell Mode, which was accounted for as discontinued operations in 2018, we have one reporting segment.  Revenue and costs related to Hub’s business that did not comprise Mode are reported within results from continuing operations.  All revenues and costs related to Mode’s business are presented in results from discontinued operations.  Unless otherwise stated, the information disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis refers to continuing operations.  See Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding results from discontinued operations.

On December 3, 2018, a subsidiary of Hub Group, Inc. closed on the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire CaseStack.  Total consideration for the transaction was $252.9 million.  To facilitate the acquisition we paid $249.4 million in cash, of which $248.7 million was paid in December 2018 and $0.7 million in April 2019, there was also a deferred purchase consideration of $3.5 million.

Revenue

Hub’s revenue increased 3.0% to $921.2 million in 2019 from $894.7 million in 2018.  Intermodal revenue increased 0.9% to $542.9 million due to continued focus on yield management and enhanced efficiency, partially offset by a 7.2% decrease in volume due to a softening demand environment, increased truckload and intermodal competition and a 2.2% volume decrease from lane cancellations and weather disruptions.  Truck brokerage revenue decreased 6.8% to $107.1 million.  Truck brokerage handled 17.9% more loads while fuel, price and mix combined were down 24.7% due primarily to the addition of the CaseStack LTL brokerage business.  Logistics revenue increased 15.3% to $193.5 million due to the addition of CaseStack, benefits from continuous improvements and cross selling to our customers and improved pricing partially offset by lost customers. Dedicated revenue increased 5.2% to $77.7 million primarily due to improved pricing and growth with new accounts.

Transportation Costs

19

Hub’s transportation costs decreased 0.7% to $788.5 million in 2019 from $793.7 million in 2018. Transportation costs in 2019 consisted of purchased transportation costs of $631.7 million and equipment and driver related costs of $156.8 million compared to 2018, which consisted of purchased transportation costs of $639.7 million and equipment and driver related costs of $154.0 million. The 1.3% decrease in purchased transportation costs was primarily due to lower volumes in intermodal, and lower fuel costs partially offset by rail cost increases and higher drayage costs. Equipment and driver related costs increased 1.8% in 2019 primarily due to equipment costs.

Gross Margin

Hub’s gross margin increased 31.4% to $132.7 million in 2019 from $101.0 million in 2018.  The $31.7 million gross margin increase was the result of increases in all lines of business and the addition of CaseStack. Intermodal gross margin increased due to our yield management strategy. Partially offsetting the intermodal gross margin growth were higher rail and drayage costs and a 7.2% decrease in volume. Truck brokerage gross margin increased due to a 17.9% increase in volume, the implementation of our new operating model and yield management strategy, and the addition of CaseStack. Logistics gross margin increased due to the addition of CaseStack and realization of benefits from our improved yield management and continuous improvement efforts, partially offset by lost customers. Dedicated gross margin improved due to the implementation of our yield management processes, our continuous improvement philosophy, our improved operational discipline, and the addition of new customers.

As a percentage of revenue, gross margin increased to 14.4% in 2019 from 11.3% in 2018.  Intermodal gross margin as a percentage of sales increased 180 basis points because of improved pricing and our yield management and continuous improvement efforts, partially offset by rail and drayage transportation cost increases.  Truck brokerage gross margin as a percentage of sales was up 380 basis points due to changes in customer mix, our new operating model and the addition of CaseStack. Logistics gross margin as a percentage of sales was up 540 basis points due to changes in customer mix and the addition of CaseStack. Dedicated gross margin as a percentage of sales was up 710 basis points due to improved pricing and operational discipline.

CONSOLIDATED OPERATING EXPENSES

Salaries and Benefits

Hub’s salaries and benefits increased to $60.9 million in 2019 from $54.1 million in 2018.  As a percentage of revenue, Hub’s salaries and benefits increased to 6.6% in 2019 from 6.1% in 2018.  The Hub salaries and benefits increase of $6.8 million was primarily due to the addition of CaseStack employees, higher compensation expenses of $2.3 million, partially offset by lower bonus expense of $1.9 million, lower commission expense of $1.1 million, lower tax expense of $0.2 million and lower employee benefits expense of $0.1 million.

Hub’s headcount as of June 30, 2019 and 2018 was 2,205 and 1,962 respectively, which excludes drivers, as driver costs are included in transportation costs.  The increase in Hub’s headcount is due to the acquisition of CaseStack, which has 297 employees at June 30, 2019.  

General and Administrative

Hub’s general and administrative expenses increased to $24.0 million in 2019 from $17.8 million in 2018.  These expenses, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 2.6% in 2019 from 2.0% in 2018.  This was due primarily to the additional general and administrative expenses of CaseStack, the $3.6 million fair value contingent consideration adjustment related to the Dedicated acquisition that decreased general and administrative expenses in 2018, and an increase in professional services of $0.5 million.

Depreciation and Amortization

Hub’s depreciation and amortization increased to $7.1 million in 2019 from $3.7 million in 2018.  This expense as a percentage of revenue increased to 0.8% in 2019 from 0.4% in 2018.  This increase was related primarily to the addition of amortization due to the addition of CaseStack intangible assets.

Other Income (Expense)

Total other expense decreased to $2.1 million in 2019 from $2.4 million in 2018 due to an increase in interest income due to higher cash balances and a decrease in foreign currency translation losses, partially offset by an increase in interest expense due to higher interest on debt related to Dedicated equipment purchases.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes increased to $9.4 million in 2019 from $5.9 million in 2018.  We provided for income taxes using an effective rate of 24.3% in 2019 and an effective rate of 25.6% in 2018.  The 2019 effective tax rate was lower primarily due to newly

20

enacted state tax legislation which provides us with a benefit in 2019.  We expect our effective tax rate for the entire year of 2019 will range from 25.0% to 26.0%.

Net Income

Net income from continuing operations increased to $29.2 million in 2019 from $17.2 million in 2018 due primarily to increased margin partially offset by higher operating expenses and higher income tax expense.

Revenue

Hub’s revenue increased to $1.9 billion in 2019 from $1.7 billion in 2018.  Intermodal revenue increased 4.5% to $1.1 billion due to improved pricing and our yield management strategy and improved efficiency, partially offset by a 4.3% decrease in volume.  Truck brokerage revenue decreased 4.4% to $224.7 million.  Truck brokerage handled 18.7% more loads while fuel, price and mix combined were down 23.1% due primarily to the addition of CaseStack, which handles LTL freight.  Logistics revenue increased 20.1% to $396.7 million due to the addition of CaseStack, benefits from continuous improvements and cross selling to our customers, the addition of new customers, and improved pricing partially offset by lost customers. Dedicated revenue increased 14.6% to $153.8 million primarily due to improved pricing and growth with new accounts.

Transportation Costs

Hub’s transportation costs increased 3.5% to $1.6 billion in 2019 from $1.5 billion in 2018.  Transportation costs in 2019 consisted of purchased transportation costs of $1.3 billion and equipment and driver related costs of $309.8 million compared to 2018, which consisted of purchased transportation costs of $1.2 billion and equipment and driver related costs of $292.1 million. The 2.9% increase in purchased transportation costs was primarily due to rail cost increases, an increase in fuel costs, higher volumes in truck brokerage, and the addition of CaseStack. Equipment and driver related costs increased 6.0% in 2019 primarily due to the equipment and driver related costs.

Gross Margin

Hub’s gross margin increased to $260.0 million in 2019 from $192.0 million in 2018.  The $68.0 million gross margin increase was the result of increases in all lines of business and the addition of CaseStack. Intermodal gross margin increased due to our yield

21

management strategy, improved efficiency and better purchasing. Partially offsetting the intermodal gross margin growth were higher rail and drayage costs and a 4.3% decrease in volume. Truck brokerage gross margin increased due to an 18.7% increase in volume, the implementation of our new operating and procurement processes, pricing philosophy, and increased alignment with the sales organization, as well as the addition of CaseStack. Logistics gross margin increased due to the addition of CaseStack and benefits of continuous improvements and cross selling to our customers, partially offset by lost customers and changes in customer mix. Dedicated gross margin improved due to the implementation of our yield management processes, our continuous improvement philosophy, and improved operational discipline.

As a percentage of revenue, gross margin increased to 14.0% in 2019 from 11.1% in 2018.  Intermodal gross margin as a percentage of sales increased 190 basis points because of improved pricing, partially offset by rail and drayage transportation cost increases.  Truck brokerage gross margin as a percentage of sales was up 310 basis points due to changes in customer mix, implementing our new operating model and yield management strategy and the addition of CaseStack. Logistics gross margin as a percentage of sales was up 560 basis points due to changes in customer mix, the benefits of our improved yield management and continuous improvement efforts and the addition of CaseStack. Dedicated gross margin as a percentage of sales was up 460 basis points due to improved pricing and operational discipline.

CONSOLIDATED OPERATING EXPENSES

Salaries and Benefits

Hub’s salaries and benefits increased to $122.9 million in 2019 from $106.4 million in 2018.  As a percentage of revenue, salaries and benefits increased to 6.7% in 2019 from 6.2% in 2018.  

The increase of $16.5 million was due primarily to the addition of CaseStack employees, higher compensation expense of $3.7 million, partially offset by decreased commission expense $1.5 million and decreased bonus expense of $1.3 million.

General and Administrative

Hub’s general and administrative expenses increased to $46.9 million in 2019 from $36.2 million in 2018.  As a percentage of revenue, these expenses increased to 2.5% in 2019 from 2.1% in 2018.  

The increase in general and administrative expense was due primarily to the additional general and administrative expenses for CaseStack, the $3.6 million fair value contingent consideration adjustment related to the Dedicated acquisition that decreased general and administrative expenses in 2018 and increases in professional services of $2.8 million.

Depreciation and Amortization

Hub’s depreciation and amortization increased to $13.8 million in 2019 from $7.5 million in 2018.  This expense as a percentage of revenue increased to 0.7% in 2019 from 0.4% in 2018.  

The depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily due to the additional amortization due to the addition of CaseStack intangible assets.

Other Income (Expense)

Total other expense increased to $4.8 million in 2019 from $4.5 million in 2018 due to higher interest on debt related to Dedicated equipment purchases, partially offset by higher interest income due to higher cash balances.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes increased to $18.4 million in 2019 from $9.2 million in 2018.  The provision for income taxes increased primarily due to higher pre-tax income in 2019, while the 2019 effective tax rate was higher primarily due to a tax shortfall related to stock-based compensation realized in 2019, compared to an excess tax benefit realized in 2018.

Net Income

Net income from continuing operations increased to $53.1 million in 2019 from $28.2 million in 2018 due primarily to increased margin, partially offset by higher operating expenses and higher tax expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the first half of 2019, we funded operations, capital expenditures, finance leases, repayments of debt, purchases of treasury shares and the purchase of our stock related to employee withholding upon vesting of restricted stock through cash flows from

22

operations, proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and cash on hand.  We believe that our cash, cash flows from operations and borrowings available under our Credit Agreement will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for at least the next twelve months.

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately $135.3 million, which resulted primarily from income of $53.1 million adjusted for non-cash charges of $68.5 million and a positive change in operating assets and liabilities of $13.7 million.

Cash provided by operating activities increased $37.6 million in 2019 versus 2018.  The increase was due to the increase in net income of $14.9 million and increases in non-cash charges of $15.1 million and operating assets and liabilities of $7.6 million in 2019.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $2.3 million which included capital expenditures of $28.7 million and cash used in acquisitions of $0.7 million, partially offset by proceeds from the disposition of discontinued operations of $19.4 million and proceeds from the sale of equipment of $7.7 million. Capital expenditures of $28.7 million related primarily to tractors of $10.6 million, technology investments of $9.9 million, containers of $7.1 million, construction in process of $0.5 million, other transportation equipment of $0.3 million and the remainder for leasehold improvements.

We estimate our capital expenditures will range from $100 million to $110 million for the year.  

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $68.0 million.  The net cash used in investing activities decreased $65.7 million in 2019 from 2018 due primarily to less purchases related to tractors and other transportation equipment in 2019 and the $19.4 million of proceeds from the disposition of discontinued operations and an increase of $6.4 million of proceeds from the sale of equipment as compared to 2018.

The net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $44.5 million, which resulted from the repayment of long-term debt of $51.3 million, the purchase of treasury shares of $7.3 million, stock tendered for payments of withholding taxes of $2.7 million and capital lease payments of $1.5 million, partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of debt of $18.3 million.

The increase in net cash used in financing activities of $13.1 million from 2019 versus 2018 is primarily due to the decrease in the proceeds from the issuance of debt of $39.8 million and the increase of purchases of treasury shares of $7.3 million partially offset by a decrease in repayments of long term debt of $32.7 million and stock tendered for payments of withholding taxes of $1.3 million.

In 2019, we expect our cash paid for taxes to be significantly larger than in 2018 due to smaller favorable timing differences related to depreciation and tax extension payments related to our sale of Mode in 2018.  We expect our cash paid for taxes to be less than our income tax expense because of favorable timing differences related to depreciation.

At June 30, 2019, we are authorized to borrow up to $350 million under a revolving line of credit.  We have standby letters of credit that expire at various dates in 2019 and 2020.  As of June 30, 2019, our letters of credit were $29.7 million and we had no borrowings under our bank revolving line of credit.  Our unused and available borrowings were $320.3 million as of June 30, 2019 and $323.0 as of December 31, 2018.  We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of June 30, 2019.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates on our bank line of credit which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.  Although we conduct business in foreign countries, international operations are not material to our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Additionally, foreign currency transaction gains and losses were not material to our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Accordingly, we are not currently subject to material foreign currency exchange rate risks from the effects that exchange rate movements of foreign currencies would have on our future costs or on future cash flows we would receive from our foreign investment. To date, we have not entered into any foreign currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to hedge the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.   We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes.

We have both fixed and variable rate debt as described in Note 7 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.  Any material increase in market interest rates would not have a material impact on the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

As of June 30, 2019, we had no borrowings under our bank revolving line of credit. Our unused and available borrowings were $320.3 million and $323.0 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

23

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of June 30, 2019, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019.  There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with such evaluation that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Interim Financial Statements

NOTE 1. Interim Financial Statements

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Hub Group, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our” or “Company”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations.  However, we believe that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The financial statements reflect, in our opinion, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present our financial position as of June 30, 2019 and results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.  Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.  Results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year due partially to seasonality.

Acquisition

NOTE 2. Acquisition  

On December 3, 2018, a subsidiary of Hub Group, Inc. closed on the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire CaseStack, Inc. (“CaseStack”).  Total consideration for the transaction was $252.9 million.  To facilitate the acquisition we paid $249.4 million in cash, of which $248.7 million was paid in December of 2018 and $0.7 million in April 2019, there was also a deferred purchase consideration of $3.5 million.  The deferred purchase consideration is included in Accrued Other in our consolidated balance sheet and is being paid equally over twenty-four months.  

The acquisition of CaseStack expanded our logistics service offering to include transportation and warehousing consolidation solutions for consumer packaged goods companies selling into the North American retail channel.  The acquisition also added scale to our truck brokerage service offering, particularly in the less-than-truckload segment of the market.

The following table summarizes the total purchase price allocated to the net assets acquired (in thousands):

Cash paid	$	249,389
Deferred purchase consideration		3,469
Total consideration	$	252,858

The following table summarizes the allocation of the total consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the acquisition (in thousands):

Accounts receivable trade	$	31,896
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		694
Property and equipment		3,247
Deferred tax assets		6,433
Goodwill		166,070
Other intangibles		75,600
Other assets		120
Total assets acquired	$	284,060
Accounts payable trade	$	24,542
Accrued payroll		2,811
Accrued other		3,849
Total liabilities assumed	$	31,202
Total consideration	$	252,858

The CaseStack acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations.”  Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their fair values as of December 3, 2018 with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill.  The goodwill recognized in the CaseStack acquisition was primarily attributable to potential expansion and future development of the acquired business.

Tax history and attributes including net operating loss carryovers and other deferred tax assets are inherited in an equity purchase such as this, while goodwill is not tax deductible.

The components of “Other intangibles” listed in the above table as of the acquisition date are as follows (in thousands):

			Accumulated		Balance at		Estimated Useful
	Amount		Amortization		June 30, 2019		Life
Customer relationships - logistics services	$	65,600	$	3,827	$	61,773	10 years
Customer relationships - transportation services	$	8,700	$	1,015	$	7,685	5 years
Trade name	$	1,300	$	506	$	794	18 months

The above intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method.  Amortization expense related to this acquisition for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 was $2.3 million and $4.6 million.  The intangible assets have a weighted average useful life of approximately 9 years.  Amortization expense related to CaseStack for the next five years is as follows (in thousands):

	Total
Remainder 2019	$	4,584
2020	$	8,661
2021	$	8,300
2022	$	8,300
2023	$	8,155

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations presents the effects of CaseStack as though it had been acquired as of January 1, 2018 (in thousands, except for per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2018		June 30, 2018
Revenue	$	955,180	$	1,853,199
Income from continuing operations	$	18,771	$	32,086
Earnings per share (1)
Basic	$	0.56	$	0.96
Diluted	$	0.56	$	0.96

(1) Earnings per share is from continuing operations.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results for the periods shown were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and are based on the historical financial information of Hub and CaseStack. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to the pro forma adjustments that are: (i) directly attributable to the acquisition, (ii) factually supportable and (iii) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results are not necessarily indicative of what our consolidated results of operations actually would have been had we completed the acquisition on January 1, 2018.

Discontinued Operations

NOTE 3. Discontinued Operations

On August 31, 2018, Hub Group, Inc. entered into the Purchase Agreement with Mode Transportation, LLC (“Mode”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Mode Purchaser, Inc., an affiliate of York Capital Management (“Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Mode to Purchaser (the “Disposition”).

Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract]

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

NOTE 4. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On January 1, 2018, we adopted the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.  

The Company capitalizes commissions incurred in connection with obtaining a contract.  Capitalized commission fees are amortized based on the transfer of services to which the assets relate and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.  In 2019 and 2018, the amount of commissions that were capitalized and the related amortization were both immaterial.

Costs incurred to obtain an intermodal, truck brokerage or logistics contract are expensed as incurred according to the practical expedient that allows contract acquisition costs to be recognized immediately if the deferral period is one year or less.  

Hub offers comprehensive multimodal solutions including intermodal, truck brokerage, logistics and dedicated services. Hub has full time employees located throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Intermodal. As an intermodal provider, we arrange for the movement of our customers’ freight in containers and trailers, typically over long distances of 750 miles or more. We contract with railroads to provide transportation for the long-haul portion of the shipment between rail terminals.  Local pickup and delivery services between origin or destination and rail terminals (referred to as “drayage”) are provided by our HGT subsidiary and third-party local trucking companies.

Truck Brokerage. We operate one of the largest truck brokerage operations, providing customers with an over the road service option for their transportation needs. Our brokerage does not operate any trucks; instead we match customers’ needs with carriers’ capacity to provide the most effective service and price combination. We have contracts with a substantial base of carriers allowing us to meet the varied needs of our customers.

Logistics. Hub’s logistics business operates under the names Unyson Logistics and CaseStack. Unyson Logistics is comprised of a network of logistics professionals dedicated to developing, implementing and operating customized logistics solutions for customers. Unyson Logistics offers a wide range of transportation management services and technology solutions including shipment optimization, load consolidation, mode selection, carrier management, load planning and execution and web-based shipment visibility. Our multi-modal transportation capabilities include small parcel, heavyweight, expedited, less-than-truckload, truckload, intermodal, railcar and international shipping. Our CaseStack logistics business leverages proprietary technology along with collaborative relationships with retailers and logistics providers to deliver cost savings and performance-enhancing supply chain services to consumer-packaged goods clients.  CaseStack contracts with third-party warehouse providers in seven markets across North America to which its customers ship their goods to be stored and eventually consolidated, along with goods from other CaseStack customers, into full truckload shipments destined to major North American retailers.  CaseStack offers its customers shipment visibility, transportation cost savings, high service levels and compliance with retailers’ increasingly stringent supply chain requirements.

Dedicated Trucking. Our dedicated operation contracts with customers who seek to outsource a portion of their trucking transportation needs. We offer a dedicated fleet of equipment and drivers to each customer, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations. Contracts with customers generally include fixed and variable pricing arrangements and may include charges for early termination which serves to reduce the financial risk we bear with respect to the utilization of our equipment.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurement

NOTE 6. Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.  As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate borrowings was $4.5 million more and $0.4 million less than the historical carrying value of $297.8 million and $330.8 million.  The fair value of the fixed-rate borrowings was estimated using an income approach based on current interest rates available to the Company for borrowings on similar terms and maturities.

We consider as cash equivalents all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less.  As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our cash and temporary investments were with high quality financial institutions in demand deposit accounts (DDAs), savings accounts and an interest bearing checking account.

Restricted investments, as of June 30, 2019 of $22.0 million and December 31, 2018 of $19.2 million, included mutual funds which are reported at fair value.    

Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on valuation techniques which consider prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. These valuation methods are based on either quoted market prices (Level 1) or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2), or unobservable inputs (Level 3). Cash and cash equivalents, mutual funds, accounts receivable and accounts payable are defined as “Level 1,” while long-term debt is defined as “Level 2” of the fair value hierarchy in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification.

Leases, User Charges and Commitments

Leases [Abstract]

Leases, User Charges and Commitments

NOTE 8. Leases, User Charges and Commitments

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASC 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”) which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a lease obligation for all leases. We adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019, in accordance with the standard.  ASC 842 provides an option to apply the transition provisions as of the effective date.  We elected this option when we adopted the new standard using a modified retrospective transition method and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption rather than in the earliest period presented. In addition, we elected to apply a package of practical expedients and as such did not reassess at the date of initial adoption (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, or (3) initial direct costs for existing leases.  Lessees can also make an accounting policy election to not recognize an asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less which we elected.

As of June 30, 2019, Hub recognized $39.2 million of ROU assets and $40.2 million of Lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet.  The lease liabilities recognized are measured based upon the present value of minimum future payments. The ROU assets are equal to lease liabilities, adjusted for prepaid and accrued rent balances which are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Hub currently does not have any variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate (such as the Consumer Price Index or a market interest rate). Some leases have options to extend or terminate the agreement, which Management assesses in determining the estimated lease term.  If any of the options to extend a lease are exercised, this change will be reflected as a remeasurement of the ROU asset and lease liability accordingly.  As of June 30, 2019, the ROU asset and lease liabilities do not reflect any options to extend or terminate a lease as management is not reasonably certain it will exercise any of these options.  Also, current leases do not contain any restrictions or covenants imposed by the leases or residual value guarantees.

Occasionally, Hub will sublease office space or parking spaces. The subleases do not relieve Hub of any of its primary obligations under the original agreement.  Currently, Hub has subleases with an expected annual income totaling $0.6 million.

As of June 30, 2019, Hub signed new property lease contracts which have not commenced.  Based on the present value of the lease payments, the estimated ROU assets and lease liabilities related to these contracts will total approximately $17.6 million.

Discount rates are not specified on the individual lease contracts at their commencement dates. To determine the present value of the lease payments, Hub used its incremental borrowing rate which was determined based on Hub’s credit standing and factoring in the current 12-month LIBOR rate published at the time of the lease commencement. This incremental borrowing rate represents the rate of interest that Hub would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and amounts equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

The following table summarizes the lease costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 (in thousands), which are included in general and administrative costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of income:

NOTE 9. Internal-Use Software

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing (Hosting) Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The amendment aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The amendment is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for all entities and should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. We early adopted the amendment in the fourth quarter of 2018 and applied prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption.

In accordance with this ASU, we had capitalized implementation costs of $13.8 million and $10.6 million from our hosting arrangements, net of amortizations, for various corporate software services as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.   Prior to adoption, these costs were previously presented as part of Property and equipment and are included in Other assets in the consolidated balance sheet subsequent to adoption.  The amount of capitalized implementation costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $2.0 million and $3.6 million.  The corresponding cash flows from capitalized implementation costs incurred in our hosting arrangements is classified as a change in other assets in cash flows from operating activities. The capitalized implementation costs incurred in our hosting arrangements are amortized, once ready for intended use, over the term of the associated hosting arrangements of 3 to 10 years.  The related amortization of capitalized implementation costs are classified as general and administrative expense in the same line item as the expense for fees for the associated hosting arrangement.

Legal Matters

NOTE 10. Legal Matters  

We are a defendant in three putative class-action lawsuits in which the plaintiffs are current and former California-based drivers who allege claims for unpaid wages, failure to provide meal and rest periods, and other items.  Those cases are Robert Parsons v. Estenson Logistics, LLC, et.al. (Sacramento Superior Court), a second lawsuit Robert Parsons v. Estenson Logistics, LLC (Sacramento Superior Court), and Mario Mendez v. Estenson Logistics, LLC (Los Angeles Superior Court). Because of the preliminary nature of these proceedings, the difficulty in ascertaining the applicable facts, the inconsistent treatment of claims made in the proceedings, and the difficulty of predicting the settlement value of these proceedings, we are not able to estimate an amount or range of any reasonably possible losses.  Based on management's present knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from these 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.

Robles

On January 25, 2013, a complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California (Sacramento Division) by Salvador Robles against our subsidiary Hub Group Trucking, Inc (“HGT”).  The action is brought on behalf of a class comprised of present and former California-based truck drivers for HGT who were classified as independent contractors, from January 2009 to August 2014.  It alleges HGT has misclassified such drivers as independent contractors and that such drivers were employees.  It asserts various violations of the California Labor Code and claims that HGT has engaged in unfair competition practices.  The complaint seeks, among other things, declaratory and injunctive relief, monetary damages and attorney’s fees.  In May 2013, the complaint was amended to add similar claims based on Mr. Robles’ status as an employed company driver.  These additional claims are only on behalf of Mr. Robles and not a putative class.

The Company believes that the California independent contractor truck drivers were properly classified as independent contractors at all times.  Nevertheless, because lawsuits are expensive, time-consuming and could interrupt our business operations, HGT decided to make settlement offers to individual drivers with respect to the claims alleged in this lawsuit, without admitting liability.  As of June 30, 2019, 96% of the California drivers have accepted the settlement offers.  In late 2014, HGT decided to convert its model from independent contractors to employee drivers in California (the “Conversion”).  In early 2016, HGT closed its operations in Southern California.

On April 3, 2015, the Robles case was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Tennessee (Western Division) in Memphis.  In May 2015, the plaintiffs in the Robles case filed a Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”) which names 334 current and former Hub Group Trucking drivers as “interested putative class members.”  In addition to reasserting their existing claims, the SAC includes claims post-Conversion, added two new plaintiffs and seeks a judicial declaration that the settlement agreements are unenforceable.  In June 2015, Hub Group Trucking filed a motion to dismiss the SAC and on July 19, 2016, Hub Group Trucking’s motion to dismiss was granted in part, and denied in part, by the District Court.  The motion to dismiss was granted for the claims of all purported class members who have signed settlement agreements and on plaintiffs’ claims based on quantum merit and it was denied with respect to federal preemption and choice of law.  On August 11, 2016, Plaintiffs filed a motion to clarify whether the Court’s dismissal of the claims of all purported class members who signed settlement agreements was with or without prejudice and, if the dismissal was with prejudice, Plaintiffs moved the Court to revise and reconsider the order.  On July 2, 2018, the Court denied the Plaintiffs’ Motion for Clarification or Reconsideration and stated that the dismissal of the claims of all purported class members who signed settlement agreements was with prejudice.

Adame

On August 5, 2015, the Plaintiffs’ law firm in the Robles case filed a lawsuit in state court in San Bernardino County, California on behalf of 63 named Plaintiffs against Hub Group Trucking and five Company employees.  The lawsuit alleges claims similar to those being made in Robles and seeks monetary penalties under the Private Attorneys General Act.  Of the 63 named Plaintiffs, at least 58 of them previously accepted the settlement offers referenced above.

On October 29, 2015, Defendants filed a notice of removal to move the case from state court in San Bernardino to federal court in the Central District of California. On November 19, 2015, Plaintiffs filed a motion to remand the case back to state court, claiming that the federal court lacks jurisdiction over the case because there is not complete diversity of citizenship between the parties and the amount in controversy threshold is not satisfied.  The court granted Plaintiffs’ motion to remand to the state court in San Bernardino County on April 7, 2016.

On July 11, 2016, Defendants filed dismissal papers in state court, asking the court to dismiss Plaintiffs’ suit for various reasons, including that the agreement between HGT and its former California owner operators requires that this action be brought in Memphis, Tennessee, or stay the action pending the outcome of Robles. Defendants also asked the court to dismiss the individual defendants because PAGA’s language does not allow for individual liability.  During a hearing on October 5, 2016, the judge issued an oral tentative ruling stating that the choice of forum provision was unenforceable.  On February 17, 2017, with the stipulation of the parties, the Court entered an order dismissing, without prejudice, all of the individual Defendants and accepting the parties’ agreement that jurisdiction and venue are proper in the San Bernardino Superior Court and that Defendants will not seek to remove the case to federal district court.  On April 12, 2017, the Court denied Defendant’s motion to dismiss based on insufficiency of the PAGA letter notice.  On October 19, 2017, Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, dismissing the previously named individuals as Defendants.  On December 4, 2017, Defendants filed an Answer to Plaintiffs’ First Amended Complaint and a Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of their Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings arguing that judgement should be entered for Defendants because Plaintiffs’ claims are preempted by the Federal Truth-In-Leasing regulations.  On January 31, 2018, a hearing was held on the motion to dismiss, and on February 1, 2018, the motion was denied.  On March 27, 2018, Defendants filed a petition for a writ of mandate with the Court of Appeals.  On June 12, 2018, the Court of Appeals denied the petition.  On June 21, 2018, Defendants filed a petition for review with the California Supreme Court.  On August 8, 2018, the Supreme Court of California denied the petition for review.

Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]

New Accounting Pronouncements

NOTE 11. New Accounting Pronouncements

In 2016, the FASB issued ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, (“ASC 326”) that requires credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, not based on incurred losses.  The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 is permitted. We plan to adopt this standard on January 1, 2020, as required.  We do not believe the adoption of ASC 326 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements as the new guidance is consistent with our current accounting policy in determining expected credit losses on financial assets.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles – Goodwill and other (Topic 350): simplifying the test for goodwill impairment. This ASU simplifies how all entities assess goodwill for impairment by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. As amended, the goodwill impairment test will consist of one step comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.  The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.  We plan to adopt this standard on January 1, 2020, as required.  We do not believe the adoption of Topic 350 will have a material effect on our financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.  Under this new standard, companies will no longer be required to value non-employee awards differently from employee awards.  This means that companies will value all equity classified awards at their grant-date and forgo revaluing the award after this date.  The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  This standard was adopted on January 1, 2019 and had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
