Werner Enterprises will ring the Nasdaq Closing Bell on 27 August to mark 70 years since its founding in 1956 and 40 years as a publicly traded company. Chairman and CEO Derek Leathers will be joined by over 50 Werner associates and truck drivers from across North America at the Nasdaq MarketSite in Times Square. The Omaha-based transportation and logistics provider has grown from a single truck in 1956 into a multi-modal operation. The company now employs more than 14,500 associates across North America and reported revenues of nearly $3 billion in 2025. Werner's services include dedicated and one-way truckload operations, as well as logistics services encompassing truckload brokerage, freight management, intermodal and final mile delivery.
Werner Enterprises executives remain confident despite July's seasonal slowdown in the truckload spot market. CEO Derek Leathers told investors the supply-led recovery continues, driven by regulatory enforcement targeting underqualified operators. Leathers estimates 850 to 900 CDL schools have closed due to insufficient training standards, whilst approximately 10,000 training programmes were removed from the FMCSA's Training Provider Registry. A ban on electronic logging devices allowing manipulation of service hours has also reduced capacity. Despite modest demand, Leathers expects the supply-driven turnaround to persist through peak season, with shippers increasingly accepting the supply crunch as real. Werner's one-way truckload fleet showed strong second-quarter results, with revenue per truck per week up 28% year over year, aided by a 16% increase in miles per truck.
Werner Enterprises has declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per common share. The dividend will be paid on 21 October 2026 to stockholders of record as of 5 October 2026. The Omaha-based transportation and logistics company has maintained its quarterly dividend payments consistently since July 1987. Werner operates across the United States, Mexico and Canada, providing truckload transportation and logistics services. The company reported revenues of nearly $3.0 billion in 2025. Werner employs more than 14,500 people and operates a fleet of modern trucks and trailers, offering services including dedicated and one-way truckload, freight brokerage, intermodal and final mile delivery.
Werner Enterprises has appointed Paul Hoelting to its Board of Directors to fill a Class I directorship vacancy. Hoelting brings over 30 years of C-suite experience in transportation and logistics. He recently served as President of TForce Freight, leading operational and financial transformations following its separation from UPS. Previously, he held several executive positions at UPS Freight Company, including Chief Revenue Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Hoelting currently works as an Executive Advisor to multiple transportation technology and logistics companies. He holds degrees in Accounting and Business Administration and has passed the Certified Public Accountant examination. Werner Enterprises generated nearly $3 billion in revenues in 2025.
