Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other written reports and oral statements
we make from time to time contain forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or
may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking
statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as
"anticipate," "estimate," "believe," "continue," "could," "intend," "may,"
"plan," "potential," "predict," "should," "will," "expect," "objective,"
"projection," "forecast," "goal," "guidance," "outlook," "effort," "target,"
"trajectory" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terms. However,
the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not
forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are based on certain
assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its
perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future
developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the
circumstances. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results, levels of
activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future
results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to a
material difference include those discussed below and the risks discussed in the
Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
All forward-looking statements set forth in this Quarterly Report are qualified
by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual
results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized or, even if
substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequence to or
effects on the Company or its business or operations. The following discussion
should be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere
in this Quarterly Report, and with the audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes thereto included in the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Forward-looking statements set forth in this Quarterly Report speak only as of
the date hereof, and we do not undertake any obligation to update
forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances,
changes in expectations or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the
extent required by law.
Executive Summary
XPO Logistics, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries
("XPO," or "we"), provides cutting-edge supply chain solutions to the most
successful companies in the world.
We have two reporting segments: Transportation and Logistics, each with robust
service offerings, leadership positions and growth prospects. In 2020,
approximately 62% of our revenue came from Transportation, and the remaining 38%
came from Logistics. Within each segment, we are positioned to capitalize on
fast-growing areas of demand.
On August 2, 2021, we completed the previously announced spin-off of our
Logistics segment in a transaction intended to qualify as tax-free to our
stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which was accomplished by the
distribution of 100% of the outstanding common stock of GXO Logistics, Inc.
("GXO") to XPO stockholders. XPO stockholders received one share of GXO common
stock for every share of XPO common stock held at the close of business on July
23, 2021, the record date for the distribution. XPO does not beneficially own
any shares of GXO's common stock following the spin-off. GXO, a global provider
of contract logistics services, is an independent public company trading under
the symbol "GXO" on the New York Stock Exchange. The historical results of
operations and the financial position of GXO are included in these condensed
consolidated financial statements. After the spin-off, we will no longer
consolidate GXO, and all periods prior to the spin-off will reflect our
Logistics segment as a discontinued operation.
In connection with the spin-off, we have entered into a separation and
distribution agreement as well as various other agreements with GXO that provide
a framework for the relationships between the parties going forward, including,
among others, an employee matters agreement, a tax matters agreement, an
intellectual property license agreement and a transition services agreement,
through which XPO will continue to provide certain services to GXO following the
spin-off. With the completion of the spin-off, XPO is a leading provider of
transportation services, primarily less-than-truckload ("LTL") transportation
and truck brokerage services.

  Table of Contents
As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately 141,000 team members (comprised of
approximately 107,000 full-time and part-time employees and 34,000 third-party,
temporary workers), and 1,623 locations in 30 countries. Substantially all of
our services operate under the single brand of XPO Logistics. We use our highly
extensive network to help more than 50,000 customers operate their supply chains
most efficiently.
Maintaining strong liquidity has been and will continue to be a top priority for
XPO, and we are targeting for XPO to receive investment-grade credit ratings in
the future. As discussed in greater detail below, as of June 30, 2021, we had
$1.9 billion of available liquidity, including $801 million of cash and cash
equivalents.
Transportation Segment
Our Transportation segment facilitates the movement of raw materials, parts and
finished goods. Our largest service offering within the Transportation segment
is LTL, which contributed 43% of 2020 segment revenue. We are a top three
provider of LTL services in North America, and we have one of the largest LTL
networks in Western Europe.
Our other primary service offering within the Transportation segment is truck
brokerage. We are the second largest brokerage provider globally and the third
largest brokerage provider in North America. As of June 30, 2021, we had truck
brokerage relationships with approximately 85,000 independent carriers
representing over 1,000,000 trucks. Our truck brokerage operations are a central
part of the freight brokerage services we provide, which also include
additional, asset-light services for expedite, intermodal and drayage.
The owned capacity of our Transportation segment includes approximately 13,000
tractors and 35,000 trailers operated by professional drivers employed by XPO.
This equipment is related primarily to our LTL operations in North America.
Logistics Segment
Our Logistics segment provides order fulfillment and other distribution services
differentiated by our ability to deliver technology-enabled, customized
solutions. XPO is the second largest provider of contract logistics globally as
of June 30, 2021, with one of the largest outsourced e-fulfillment platforms.
Our logistics services include high-value-add warehousing and distribution,
order fulfillment and personalization, cold-chain logistics, packaging and
labeling, aftermarket support, inventory management and supply chain
optimization. In addition, many of our e-commerce facilities manage merchandise
returns, also known as reverse logistics. Depending on the merchandise being
returned, this fast-growing area of logistics can include inspection, testing,
repackaging, refurbishment, resale or product disposal, as well as refunding and
warranty management. Reverse logistics services are mission-critical for
companies with consumer end-markets, as shoppers increasingly "test-drive" the
merchandise they buy online.
As of June 30, 2021, we operated 208 million square feet (19 million square
meters) of logistics warehouse space worldwide. Approximately 97 million square
feet (8 million square meters) was located in North America; 104 million square
feet (10 million square meters) was located in Europe; and 7 million square feet
(1 million square meters) was located in Asia.
Our logistics customers primarily operate in industries with high-growth
outsourcing opportunities, including e-commerce and retail, food and beverage,
consumer packaged goods, technology, aerospace, telecommunications, industrial
and manufacturing, chemicals, agribusiness, life sciences and healthcare.
Operating Philosophy
We believe that our rapid pace of innovation differentiates our services,
enables us to better utilize our assets and makes the most of the talent within
our organization. Our proprietary technology strengthens our relationships with
customers by addressing their immediate supply chain needs in ways that
accommodate their strategic plans, such as entry into new markets. Technology
allows us to be a true partner to our customers by helping them meet their
objectives for efficiency, safety, customer service and growth.
When developing our technology, we concentrate our efforts in four areas that
can create value for our shareholders and our customers, primarily by creating
"smart" supply chains: our digital freight marketplace, automation and

                                       23

intelligent machines, dynamic data science, and visibility, particularly as it
affects customer service in the e-commerce supply chain.
Environmental sustainability is a significant priority for us. In the U.S., XPO
has been named a Top 75 Green Supply Chain Partner by Inbound Logistics for six
consecutive years. In France, we have renewed our commitment to the CO2 Charter
for another three years. In Spain, all of our sites meet Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design ("LEED") energy certification standards for 100%
consumption of renewable energy. In the U.K., the Digital Distribution Warehouse
of the Future we created with Nestlé operates with environmentally friendly
ammonia refrigeration systems, energy-saving lighting, air-source heat pumps for
administration areas and rainwater harvesting.
More broadly in our Logistics segment, a number of our facilities are ISO
14001-certified, which ensures environmental and other regulatory compliances.
We monitor fuel emissions from forklifts, with protocols in place to take
immediate corrective action if needed. Our packaging engineers ensure that the
optimal carton size is used for each product slated for distribution, and when
feasible, we purchase recycled packaging. As a byproduct of managing returned
merchandise, we recycle millions of electronic components and batteries each
year.
In our Transportation segment, we have made substantial investments in
fuel-efficient tractors that use Environmental Protection Agency 2013-compliant
and Greenhouse Gas 2014- compliant Selective Catalytic Reduction technology for
our LTL business in North America. Our LTL drivers operate from terminals that
have energy-saving policies in place and are implementing a phased upgrade to
LED lighting.
In Europe, our modern road fleet is 98% compliant with Euro V, EEV and Euro VI
standards. We also own a large alternative-fuel road fleet that operates in
France, the U.K., Spain and Portugal, including more than 250 natural gas
vehicles. In Spain, we own government-approved mega-trucks to transport freight
with fewer trips, and our last mile operations in Europe use electric vehicles
for deliveries in certain urban areas, reducing those emissions to zero.
Impacts of COVID-19
As a global provider of supply chain solutions, our business can be impacted to
varying degrees by factors beyond our control. The rapid escalation of COVID-19
into a pandemic in 2020 affected, and may continue to affect, economic activity
broadly and customer sectors served by our industry.
We believe the COVID-19 pandemic and associated impacts on economic activity had
adverse effects on our results of operations and financial condition for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and to a lesser extent for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2021, as discussed below.
Due to the evolving nature of the pandemic, it remains difficult to predict the
extent of the impact on our industry generally and our business in particular.
Furthermore, the extent and pace of a recovery remains uncertain and may differ
significantly among the countries in which we operate. Our results of operations
may continue to be impacted by the pandemic throughout 2021.
We have incurred net incremental and direct costs related to COVID-19 to ensure
that we meet the needs of our employees and customers; these include costs for
personal protective equipment ("PPE"), site cleanings and enhanced employee
benefits. The majority of our cost base is variable, and while we expect to
continue to incur additional costs related to the pandemic, we also have the
ability to continue to adjust our expenses to address significant changes in
demand for our services, if necessary, as we did in 2020. These actions include
reduced use of contractors, reduced employee hours, furloughs, layoffs and
required use of paid time off, consistent with applicable regulations.
The totality of the actions we have taken during the pandemic, and continue to
take, combined with the variable components of our cost structure, have
mitigated the impact on our profitability relative to the impact on our revenue
and volumes, while our strong liquidity and disciplined capital management
enable us to continue to invest in key growth initiatives.

(1)Consolidated operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2021
includes $35 million of transaction and integration costs and $2 million of
restructuring income. $2 million of the transaction and integration costs relate
to our Transportation segment, $7 million relate to our Logistics segment and
$26 million relate to Corporate.
(2)Consolidated operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2020 includes
$46 million of transaction and integration costs and $50 million of
restructuring expense. $13 million of the transaction and integration costs
relate to our Transportation segment, $18 million relate to our Logistics
segment and $15 million relate to Corporate.
(3)Consolidated operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 includes
$53 million of transaction and integration costs and $2 million of restructuring
expense. $3 million of the transaction and integration costs relate to our
Transportation segment, $12 million relate to our Logistics segment and
$38 million relate to Corporate.
(4)Consolidated operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 includes
$90 million of transaction and integration costs and $53 million of
restructuring expense. $20 million of the transaction and integration costs
relate to our Transportation segment, $25 million relate to our Logistics
segment and $45 million relate to Corporate.
The transaction and integration costs for the first six months of 2021 are
primarily related to the spin-off of the Logistics segment and our acquisition
of the Kuehne + Nagel business in January 2021. The transaction and integration
costs for the first six months of 2020 are primarily related to our previously
announced exploration of strategic alternatives that was terminated in March
2020. For further information on our restructuring actions, see Note
5-Restructuring Charges to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We
also incurred net incremental and direct costs as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic in the second quarter and first six months of 2021 and 2020.
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared with Three and Six Months
Ended June 30, 2020
Revenue for the second quarter of 2021 increased 43.8% to $5.0 billion, compared
with the same quarter in 2020. Revenue for the first six months of 2021
increased 33.2% to $9.8 billion compared with the same period in 2020. The
increase in revenue in the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared
to the same periods in 2020 reflects the impact of COVID-19 on our results in
2020 and strong growth in both our transportation and logistics businesses,
including the impact of the acquired Kuehne + Nagel business in January 2021.
The Kuehne + Nagel business contributed approximately 4.3 percentage points to
revenue growth for the second quarter of 2021 and 3.6 percentage points for the
first six months of 2021. Additionally, foreign currency movement increased
revenue by approximately 4.5 percentage points in the second quarter of 2021 and
3.8 percentage points in the first six months of 2021.

  Table of Contents
Cost of transportation and services includes the cost of providing or procuring
freight transportation for XPO customers and salaries paid to employee drivers
in our LTL and truckload businesses.
Cost of transportation and services for the second quarter of 2021 was $2.5
billion, or 49.9% of revenue, compared with $1.6 billion, or 46.9% of revenue,
for the same period in 2020. Cost of transportation and services for the first
six months of 2021 was $4.8 billion, or 49.4% of revenue, compared with $3.5
billion or 48.0% of revenue, for the same period in 2020. The year-over-year
increase as a percentage of revenue in both periods reflects higher costs in
both segments, as well as the impact of a higher proportion of revenue from our
Transportation segment in 2021 as compared to prior year. These increases were
partially offset by lower COVID-19-related costs.
Direct operating expenses are comprised of both fixed and variable expenses and
consist of operating costs related to our warehousing facilities and LTL service
centers. Direct operating expenses consist mainly of personnel costs, facility
and equipment expenses, such as rent, utilities, equipment maintenance and
repair, costs of materials and supplies, information technology expenses,
depreciation expense, and gains and losses on sales of property and equipment.
Direct operating expense for the second quarter of 2021 was $1.7 billion, or
33.4% of revenue, compared with $1.4 billion, or 39.1% of revenue, for the same
quarter in 2020. Direct operating expense for the first six months of 2021 was
$3.3 billion, or 34.0% of revenue, compared with $2.7 billion, or 37.1% of
revenue, for the same period in 2020. The year-over-year decrease as a
percentage of revenue in both periods was primarily driven by the impact of
higher proportion of revenue from our Transportation segment in 2021 as compared
to prior year as well as lower COVID-19-related, personnel and facilities costs
as a percentage of revenue as we leveraged our fixed costs across increased
revenues this quarter and six month period. Direct operating expense for the
second quarters of 2021 and 2020 included $7 million and $12 million,
respectively, and the first six months of 2021 and 2020 included $31 million and
$39 million, respectively, of gains on sales of property and equipment.
Sales, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") primarily consists of
salaries and commissions for the sales function, salary and benefit costs for
executive and certain administration functions, depreciation and amortization
expense, professional fees, facility costs, bad debt expense and legal costs.
SG&A for the second quarter of 2021 was $594 million, or 11.8% of revenue,
compared with $632 million, or 18.0% of revenue, for the same period in 2020.
SG&A for the first six months of 2021 was $1.18 billion, or 12.0% of revenue,
compared with $1.16 billion, or 15.7% of revenue, for the same period in 2020.
SG&A for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 included approximately
$31 million and $44 million, respectively, of expenses related to the spin-off
of our Logistics segment, including professional service fees. In comparison,
SG&A for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 included approximately
$33 million and $73 million, respectively, of expenses related to our
exploration of strategic alternatives, including professional service fees and
employee retention costs. Further impacting the decrease in SG&A as a percentage
of revenue were lower restructuring charges, COVID-19-related costs and bad debt
expense in the second quarter and first six months of 2021.
Other income primarily consists of pension income. Other income for the second
quarter of 2021 was $24 million, compared with $21 million for the same period
in 2020. Other income for the first six months of 2021 was $50 million, compared
with $39 million for the same period in 2020. The year-over-year increase
primarily reflects higher net periodic pension income in the second quarter and
first six months of 2021, compared with the same periods in 2020.
Foreign currency (gain) loss was a $3 million loss for both the second quarter
of 2021 and 2020. Foreign currency (gain) loss was a $1 million loss for the
first six months of 2021, compared with an $5 million gain for the same period
in 2020. Foreign currency loss in the first six months of 2021 primarily
reflected unrealized losses on foreign currency option and forward contracts.
Foreign currency gain in the first six months of 2020 primarily reflected
realized gains on foreign currency option and forward contracts and other
derivative contracts, including a gain on a terminated net investment hedge on
foreign currency option and forward contracts. For additional information on our
foreign currency option and forward contracts, see Note 6-Derivative Instruments
to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Debt extinguishment loss was $8 million for the first six months of 2021 and
related to the write-off of debt issuance costs for the redemption of our
outstanding senior notes due 2022, as well as costs related to the amendment of

term loan credit agreement. There were no debt extinguishment losses in the
second quarter of 2021 or the first six months of 2020.
Interest expense decreased to $63 million for the second quarter of 2021 from
$82 million for the second quarter of 2020. Interest expense decreased to $132
million for the first six months of 2021 from $154 million for the first six
months of 2020. The declines in interest expense reflected the lower debt
balances, including the redemption of our senior notes due 2022 in the first
quarter of 2021.
Our effective income tax rates were 22.4% and 34.8% for the second quarter of
2021 and 2020, respectively, and 22.5% and 35.8% for the first six months of
2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rates for the second quarter and
six-month periods of 2021 and 2020 were based on forecasted full-year effective
tax rates, adjusted for discrete items that occurred within the periods
presented. The change in our effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2021
compared to the same quarter in 2020 was primarily driven by higher pre-tax book
income which diluted the impact of contribution- and margin-based taxes. The
primary discrete item impacting the effective tax rate for the second quarter of
2021 was a tax benefit of $6 million from changes in reserves for uncertain tax
positions. The primary items impacting the effective tax rate for the first six
months of 2021 included discrete tax benefits of $6 million from changes in
reserves for uncertain tax positions and $4 million of excess tax benefit from
stock-based compensation. There were no material discrete items impacting the
effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2020.
In July 2021, in connection with the spin-off of our Logistics segment, we
amended our legal entity structure. These changes will result in one-time cash
and non-cash tax expenses in the second half of 2021.
Restructuring Charges
We engage in restructuring actions as part of our ongoing efforts to best use
our resources and infrastructure, including actions in response to COVID-19.
Restructuring charges (credits) were recorded on our Condensed Consolidated

in 2021 in connection with the spin-off of our Logistics segment or for other
reasons; however, we are currently unable to reasonably estimate these costs.

Revenue increased 34.6% to $6.2 billion for the first six months of 2021,
compared with $4.6 billion for the same period in 2020. The increase in revenue

transportation businesses. Additionally, foreign currency movement increased
revenue by approximately 2.5 percentage points in the second quarter of 2021 and
2.1 percentage points in the first six months of 2021.
Operating income in our transportation segment was $255 million, or 8.0% of
revenue, for the second quarter of 2021, compared with the operating loss of $15
million, or 0.7% of revenue, for the same quarter in 2020. Operating income was
$464 million, or 7.5% of revenue, for the first six months of 2021, compared
with $105 million, or 2.3% of revenue, for the same period in 2020. The increase
in both periods was primarily driven by significantly higher revenue and lower
restructuring charges and COVID-19-related costs. Additionally, expenses related
to our exploration of strategic alternatives were approximately $8 million in
the second quarter of 2020 and $15 million in the first six months of 2020.

Revenue in our Logistics segment increased 34.0% to $1.9 billion for the second
quarter of 2021, compared with $1.4 billion for the same quarter in 2020.
Revenue increased 30.2% to $3.7 billion for the first six months of 2021,
compared with $2.8 billion for the same period in 2020. The increases in revenue
in the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared to the same period
in 2020 reflect the impact of COVID-19 on our results in 2020 and strong growth
in our European business, including the impact of the acquired Kuehne + Nagel
business in January 2021. The Kuehne + Nagel business contributed approximately
10.7 percentage points to segment revenue growth in the second quarter of 2021
and 9.4 percentage points for the first six months of 2021. Additionally,
foreign currency movement increased revenue by approximately 7.6 percentage
points in the second quarter of 2021 and 6.6 percentage points in the first six
months of 2021.
Operating income in our Logistics segment was $71 million, or 3.8% of revenue,
for the second quarter of 2021, compared with a loss of $43 million, or 3.1% of
revenue, for the same quarter in 2020. Operating income was $139 million, or
3.8% of revenue, for the first six months of 2021, compared with a loss of $5
million, or 0.2% of revenue, for the same period in 2020. The increase in both
periods was primarily driven by significantly higher revenue and lower
restructuring charges and COVID-19-related costs. Operating income for the
second quarter and first six months of 2021 included $7 million and $12 million,
respectively, of transaction and integration costs, including amounts related to
our acquisition of the Kuehne + Nagel business. In comparison, operating loss
for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 included $11 million and
$17 million, respectively, of expenses related to our exploration of strategic
alternatives.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $801 million. Our
principal existing sources of cash are (i) cash generated from operations; (ii)
borrowings available under our Second Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Credit
Agreement, as amended (the "ABL Facility"); and (iii) proceeds from the issuance
of other debt. As of June 30, 2021, we have $1.084 billion available to draw
under our ABL Facility, based on a borrowing base of $1.1 billion and
outstanding letters of credit of $16 million. Additionally, under our Senior
Secured Term Loan Credit Agreement, we have a $200 million uncommitted secured
evergreen letter of credit facility, under which we have issued $198 million in
aggregate face amount of letters of credit as of June 30, 2021.
In July 2021, we amended our existing ABL facility which matures in April 2024
to reduce the commitments from $1.1 billion to $1.0 billion. There were no other
significant changes made to the terms of the facility, including the maturity
date, the interest rate margin, and financial covenants.

We continually evaluate our liquidity requirements in light of our operating
needs, growth initiatives and capital resources. We believe that our existing
liquidity and sources of capital are sufficient to support our operations over
the next 12 months.
Trade Receivables Securitization and Factoring Programs
We sell certain of our trade accounts receivable on a non-recourse basis to
third-party financial institutions under factoring agreements. We account for
these transactions as sales of receivables and present cash proceeds as cash
provided by operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Cash Flows. We also sell trade accounts receivable under a securitization
program described below. We use trade receivables securitization and factoring
programs to help manage our cash flows and offset the impact of extended payment
terms for some of our customers.
XPO Logistics Europe SA ("XPO Logistics Europe") participates in a trade
receivables securitization program co-arranged by three European banks (the
"Purchasers"). Under the program, a wholly-owned bankruptcy-remote special
purpose entity of XPO Logistics Europe sells trade receivables that originate
with wholly-owned subsidiaries of XPO Logistics Europe in the United Kingdom and
France to unaffiliated entities managed by the Purchasers. The special purpose
entity is a variable interest entity and is consolidated by XPO based on our
control of the entity's activities.
We account for transfers under our securitization and factoring arrangements as
sales because we sell full title and ownership in the underlying receivables and
control of the receivables is considered transferred. For these transfers, the
receivables are removed from our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the
date of transfer. In the securitization and factoring arrangements, our
continuing involvement is limited to servicing the receivables and, in the case
of the securitization arrangements, providing recourse in certain defined
circumstances. The fair value of any servicing assets and liabilities is
immaterial. Our trade receivables securitization program permits us to borrow,
on an unsecured basis, cash collected in a servicing capacity on previously sold
receivables, which we report within short-term debt on our Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets. We had no such borrowings outstanding as of
June 30, 2021 and €41 million ($50 million) as of December 31, 2020.
The maximum amount of net cash proceeds available at any one time under the
securitization program, inclusive of any unsecured borrowings, is €400 million
(approximately $474 million as of June 30, 2021). As of June 30, 2021, €59
million (approximately $70 million) was available to us, subject to having
sufficient receivables available to sell to the Purchasers.
Under the program, we service the receivables we sell on behalf of the
Purchasers, which gives us visibility into the timing of customer payments. The
benefit to our cash flow includes the difference between the cash consideration
in the table below and the amount we collected as a servicer on behalf of the
Purchasers. In the first six months of 2021 and 2020, we collected cash as
servicer of $1.7 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively.
Information related to the trade receivables sold was as follows:

In July 2021, in connection with the spin-off of our Logistics segment, the
existing trade receivables securitization program was amended; the existing
€400 million program is now comprised of two separate €200 million programs, one
of which will continue to be available to us and one of which will be part of
GXO following the spin-off. The new program expires in July 2024.

Term Loan Facilities
In the first quarter of 2021, we amended the Term Loan Credit Agreement to
consolidate our tranches and lower the interest rate. The applicable terms of
the Term Loan Credit Agreement are as follows:

We recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $3 million in the first six months of
2021 due to this amendment.
Senior Notes Due 2022
In January 2021, we redeemed our outstanding 6.50% senior notes due 2022. The
redemption price for the notes was 100.0% of the principal amount, plus accrued
and unpaid interest. We paid for the redemption with available cash. We recorded
a debt extinguishment loss of $5 million in the first six months of 2021 due to
this redemption.
Senior Notes Due 2025
In the second quarter of 2020, we completed private placements of $1.15 billion
aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2025. Net proceeds from the notes
were initially invested in cash and cash equivalents and were subsequently used
to redeem our outstanding senior notes due 2022 in January 2021.
GXO Revolving Credit Facility
In June 2021, in preparation for the spin-off, GXO, which was our wholly-owned
subsidiary at the time, entered into a five-year, unsecured, multi-currency
revolving credit facility (the "GXO Facility"). Initially, the GXO Facility
provides commitments up to $800 million, of which $60 million will be available
for the issuance of letters of credit. Loans under the GXO Facility will bear
interest at a fluctuating rate equal to: (i) with respect to borrowings in
dollars, at GXO's option, the alternate base rate or the reserve-adjusted LIBOR,
(ii) with respect to borrowings in Canadian dollars, the reserve-adjusted
Canadian Dollar Offered Rate and (iii) with respect to borrowings in Euros, the
reserve-adjusted Euro Interbank Offered Rate, in each case, plus an applicable
margin calculated based on GXO's credit ratings. The availability of the GXO
Facility was subject to the spin-off occurring.
The covenants in the GXO Facility, which are customary for financings of this
type, can limit the ability to incur indebtedness and grant liens, among other
restrictions. In addition, the GXO Facility requires GXO to maintain a
consolidated leverage ratio below a stated maximum consolidated leverage ratio.
There was no amount outstanding under the GXO Facility at June 30, 2021.
Following the spin-off, the GXO Facility is not available to us.
GXO Notes
In preparation for the spin-off, in July 2021, GXO completed an offering of
$800 million aggregate principal amount of notes, consisting of $400 million of
notes due 2026 (the "GXO 2026 Notes") and $400 million of notes due 2031 (the
"GXO 2031 Notes", and together with the GXO 2026 Notes, the "GXO Notes").
The GXO 2026 Notes will bear interest at a rate of 1.65% per annum payable
semiannually in cash in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year,
beginning January 15, 2022, and will mature on July 15, 2026. The GXO 2031 Notes
will bear interest at a rate of 2.65% per annum payable semiannually in cash in
arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning January 15, 2022, and
will mature on July 15, 2031.

  Table of Contents
The net proceeds from the sale of the GXO Notes were used to fund a cash payment
from GXO to XPO of $794 million, which we intend to use to repay a portion of
our outstanding borrowings as noted below. Following the completion of the
spin-off, the GXO Notes are no longer an obligation of XPO.
Equity Offering
In July 2021, we completed a registered underwritten offering of 5.0 million
shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $138.00 per share, plus
an additional 750,000 shares of our common stock through an option granted to
underwriters. Of the 5.0 million shares, we offered 2.5 million shares directly
and 2.5 million shares were offered by Jacobs Private Equity, LLC ("JPE"), an
entity controlled by the Company's chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The
additional 750,000 purchased shares were also split equally between us and JPE.
We received approximately $385 million of proceeds, net of fees and expenses,
from the sale of the shares and intend to use them to repay a portion of our
outstanding borrowings as noted below and for general corporate purposes. XPO
did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by JPE.
Debt Redemption
In July 2021, we issued notice to redeem our outstanding 6.75% senior notes due
2024 that had a principal balance of $1.0 billion as of June 30, 2021. Also, in
August 2021, we issued notice to redeem our outstanding 6.125% senior notes due
2023 that had a principal balance of $535 million as of June 30, 2021. The
redemption price for our senior notes due 2024 was 103.375%, plus accrued and
unpaid interest. The redemption price for our senior notes due 2023 was 100.0%
of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We expect to pay for
these redemptions using the cash payment of $794 million received from GXO, the
proceeds from the July 2021 equity offering and available cash.
Preferred Stock and Warrant Exchanges
In December 2020, some holders of our convertible preferred stock exchanged
their holdings for a combination of our common stock, based on the stated
conversion price, and a lump-sum payment that represents an approximation of the
net present value of the future dividends payable on the preferred stock.
Additionally, some holders of our warrants exchanged (or committed to exchange
subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions) their
holdings, including JPE, for a number of shares of our common stock equal to the
number of shares of common stock that such holder would be entitled to receive
upon an exercise of the warrants less the number of shares of common stock that
have an approximate value equal to the exercise price of the warrants. With
respect to the preferred stock, through December 31, 2020, 69,445 shares were
exchanged, and we issued 9.9 million shares of common stock and paid $22 million
of cash. With respect to the warrants, through December 31, 2020, 0.3 million
warrants were exchanged, and we issued 0.3 million shares of common stock. In
the first quarter of 2021, 975 preferred shares were exchanged, and we issued
0.1 million shares of common stock. In the second quarter of 2021, the remaining
40 preferred shares were exchanged, and we issued 5,714 shares of common stock.
With respect to the warrants, in the first quarter of 2021, 9.8 million warrants
were exchanged, and we issued 9.2 million shares of common stock. These
exchanges were intended to simplify our equity capital structure, including in
contemplation of the spin-off of our Logistics segment. As of June 30, 2021,
there were no shares of preferred stock or warrants outstanding.
Share Repurchases
In February 2019, our Board of Directors authorized repurchases of up to $1.5
billion of our common stock. Our share repurchase authorization permits us to
purchase shares in both the open market and in private transactions, with the
timing and number of shares dependent on a variety of factors, including price,
general business conditions, market conditions, alternative investment
opportunities and funding considerations. We are not obligated to repurchase any
specific number of shares and may suspend or discontinue the program at any
time.

  Table of Contents
In the first quarter of 2020, we purchased and retired 2 million shares at an
aggregate value of $114 million. The share purchases were funded by our
available cash and proceeds from our 2019 debt offerings. There were no share
purchases in the first six months of 2021 or in the second quarter of 2020. Our
remaining share repurchase authorization was $503 million as of June 30, 2021.
Loan Covenants and Compliance
As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with the covenants and other
provisions of our debt agreements. Any failure to comply with any material
provision or covenant of these agreements could have a material adverse effect
on our liquidity and operations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we: (i) generated cash from operating
activities of $539 million and (ii) generated proceeds from sales of property
and equipment of $62 million. We used cash during this period primarily to: (i)
purchase property and equipment of $250 million; (ii) redeem our senior notes
due 2022 for $1.2 billion; (iii) repay our ABL Facility borrowings of $200
million; (iv) purchase noncontrolling interests of $128 million; and (v) repay
borrowings related to our securitization program of $49 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we: (i) generated cash from operating
activities of $394 million; (ii) received net proceeds of $1.8 billion from our
issuances of debt and short-term borrowings and (iii) generated proceeds from
sales of property and equipment (primarily real estate) of $77 million. We used
cash during this period primarily to: (i) purchase property and equipment of
$255 million and (ii) repurchase common stock of $114 million.
Cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021
increased by $145 million, compared with the same period in 2020. The increase
reflects higher net income of $385 million for the six months ended June 30,
2021, compared with the same period in 2020 partially offset by a greater use of
cash for working capital in the first half of 2021 than in the prior-year
period. Additionally, the first six months of 2021 included payments of
approximately $10 million related to the spin-off, as compared to payments of
approximately $75 million related to the exploration of strategic alternatives
in the first six months of 2020. Additionally, cash paid for taxes was
$55 million higher in the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared with the same
period in 2020.
Investing activities used $154 million and $172 million of cash in the six
months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. During the six months ended
June 30, 2021, we used $250 million of cash to purchase property and equipment
and received $62 million from sales of property and equipment. During the six
months ended June 30, 2020, we used $255 million of cash to purchase property
and equipment and received $77 million from sales of property and equipment.
Financing activities used $1.6 billion of cash in the six months ended June 30,
2021 and provided $1.7 billion of cash in the six months ended June 30, 2020.
The primary uses of cash from financing activities during the first six months
of 2021 were $1.2 billion used to redeem the senior notes due 2022, $200 million
used to repay borrowings under our ABL Facility, and $49 million used to repay
our borrowings related to our securitization program. Additionally, we used
$128 million to purchase the remaining non-controlling interest in XPO Logistics
Europe SA that we did not own. The primary sources and uses of cash from
financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $1.1 billion
of net proceeds from the issuance of senior notes due 2025; $600 million of

                                       32

  Table of Contents
proceeds from borrowings on our ABL Facility, net of payments, and $109 million
of net proceeds from borrowings related to our securitization program, partially
offset by $114 million used to purchase XPO common stock.
Contractual Obligations
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no material changes to our
December 31, 2020 contractual obligations. GXO's debt and operating lease
obligations of approximately $181 million and $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2021,
respectively, will not be part of our contractual obligations following the
spin-off. We anticipate full year net capital expenditures to be between
$250 million and $275 million in 2021 (excluding any net capital expenditures
associated with our spun-off Logistics segment).
New Accounting Standards
Information related to new accounting standards is included in Note
1-Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation to our
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates, foreign
currency exchange rates and commodity risk. There have been no material changes
to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk during the six
months ended June 30, 2021, as compared with the quantitative and qualitative
disclosures about market risk described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2020.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including
our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), we
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e)
and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended as of
June 30, 2021. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021 were effective as of such
time such that the information required to be included in our Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to
the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries; and (ii) accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting
during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 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.
Intermodal Drayage Classification Claims
Certain of our intermodal drayage subsidiaries are defendants in class action
litigations brought by independent contract carriers in California who
contracted with these subsidiaries. In these cases, the contract carriers assert
that they should be classified as employees, rather than independent
contractors. In two related cases pending in Federal District Court in Los
Angeles, Alvarez v. XPO Logistics Cartage, LLC and Arrellano v. XPO Port
Services, Inc., the Court has certified classes beginning in April 2016 and
March 2013, respectively. Plaintiffs allege that defendants exercised an
impermissible degree of control over plaintiffs' operations through the terms of
the parties' contracts and defendants' policies, including enforcement of
requirements imposed on motor carriers by state and federal law. The particular
claims asserted vary from case to case but generally include claims that, should
the contract carriers be determined to be employees, they would be entitled to
reimbursement for unpaid wages, unpaid overtime, unpaid wages for missed meal
and rest periods, reimbursement of certain of the contract carriers' business
expenses

                                       33

(including fuel and insurance related costs), Labor Code penalties under
California's Private Attorneys General Act, and attorneys' fees and costs
associated with bringing the action. Defendants continue to mount a vigorous
defense on the merits of plaintiffs' claims, including as to the threshold issue
of employment classification. Both cases are scheduled for trial in September
2021; however, this date may be impacted or significantly delayed by the effect
of the COVID-19 pandemic on Court operations, including the scheduling of jury
trials. We anticipate further legal rulings from the Court at or before trial
that may substantially affect the scope of the claims asserted. As a result, we
are unable at this time to estimate the amount of the possible loss or range of
loss, if any, that we may incur as a result of these claims.
Shareholder Litigation
On December 14, 2018, a putative class action captioned Labul v. XPO Logistics,
Inc. et al., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of
Connecticut against us and some of our current and former executives, alleging
violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and
Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, based on alleged material misstatements and
omissions in our public filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. On June 3, 2019, lead plaintiffs Local 817 IBT Pension Fund, Local
272 Labor-Management Pension Fund, and Local 282 Pension Trust Fund and Local
282 Welfare Trust Fund (together, the "Pension Funds") filed a consolidated
class action complaint. Defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated class
action complaint on August 2, 2019. On November 4, 2019, the Court dismissed the
consolidated class action complaint without prejudice to the filing of an
amended complaint. The Pension Funds, on January 3, 2020, filed a first amended
consolidated class action complaint against us and a current executive.
Defendants moved to dismiss the first amended consolidated class action
complaint on March 3, 2020. On March 19, 2021, the Court dismissed the first
amended consolidated class action complaint with prejudice and closed the case.
On April 29, 2021, the Pension Funds filed a notice of appeal, and the appellate
process is ongoing.
Also, on May 13, 2019, Adriana Jez filed a purported shareholder derivative
action captioned Jez v. Jacobs, et al., (the "Jez complaint") in the U.S.
District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging breaches of fiduciary
duty, unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, and violations of the
Exchange Act against some of our current and former directors and officers, with
the company as a nominal defendant. The Jez complaint was later consolidated
with similar derivative complaints filed by purported shareholders Erin Candler
and Kevin Rose under the caption In re XPO Logistics, Inc. Derivative
Litigation. On December 12, 2019, the Court ordered plaintiffs to designate an
operative complaint or file an amended complaint within 45 days. On January 27,
2020, plaintiffs designated the Jez complaint as the operative complaint in the
consolidated cases. Defendants moved to dismiss the operative complaint on
February 26, 2020. Rather than file a brief in opposition, on March 27, 2020,
plaintiffs moved for leave to file a further amended complaint and to stay
briefing on defendants' motions to dismiss. The Court granted plaintiffs' motion
on July 6, 2020. On April 14, 2021, the Court issued an order staying
proceedings pending resolution of an appeal in the Labul action. Plaintiffs
stipulated that they will dismiss the shareholder derivative action with
prejudice if the Labul dismissal is affirmed on appeal.
We believe these suits are without merit and we intend to defend the company
vigorously. We are unable at this time to determine the amount of the possible
loss or range of loss, if any, that we may incur as a result of these matters.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There are no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part
I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2020.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
During the quarters ended December 31, 2020, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021,
following approvals by a disinterested special committee of our Board of
Directors and the Audit Committee to the extent required by our policy on
related party transactions, we entered into separate exchange agreements with
certain holders of our preferred stock and warrants, including some of our
directors and officers, pursuant to which (i) holders of our preferred stock
exchanged their preferred shares for a combination of (x) our common stock,
based on the number of shares of common stock into which our preferred stock was
then convertible; and (y) a lump-sum cash payment that represented an
approximation of the net present value of the future dividends required by the
terms of our preferred stock to be paid by us; and (ii) holders of our warrants
exchanged their warrants for the number of shares of our

                                       34
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Table of Contents
common stock that was equal to the number of shares of common stock that such
holder would be entitled to receive upon an exercise of the warrants less the
number of shares of our common stock that had an approximate value equal to the
exercise price of the warrants, based on the formula set forth in the exchange
agreements. With respect to the preferred stock, through December 31, 2020,
69,445 shares were exchanged, and we issued 9,920,709 shares of common stock and
paid $22 million of cash. With respect to the warrants, through December 31,
2020, 283,394 warrants were exchanged, and we issued 266,590 shares of common
stock. In the first quarter of 2021, 975 preferred shares were exchanged, and we
issued 139,284 shares of common stock. In the second quarter of 2021, the
remaining 40 preferred shares were exchanged, and we issued 5,714 shares of
common stock. With respect to the warrants, in the first quarter of 2021,
9,795,715 warrants were exchanged, and we issued 9,215,094 shares of common
stock. The exchange transactions were made to simplify our equity capital
structure, including in contemplation of our previously announced plan to pursue
a spin-off of our Logistics segment. As of June 30, 2021, there were no shares
of preferred stock or warrants outstanding.
The issuance of the shares of the Company's common stock described above was
made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2)
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, only to holders who are "accredited
investors" within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the
Securities Act. The Company relied on this exemption from registration based in
part on representations made by the holders of preferred stock and warrants that
participated in the exchange transactions.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities.
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information.
On July 30, 2021, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of XPO
(the "Board") approved letter agreements (the "Letter Agreements") with each of
Brad Jacobs, Troy Cooper, and Mario Harik (collectively, the "Executives").

Each Letter Agreement sets forth certain adjustments to the performance goals
applicable to the XPO performance-based restricted stock unit awards (the "PSU
Awards") and the cash long-term incentive awards (the "Cash LTI Awards") held by
each Executive, in each case, to reflect the impact of the spin-off of our
Logistics segment.

In addition, each Letter Agreement amends the definition of "change in control"
for purposes of the PSU Awards to include the disposition of a substantial
portion of XPO's assets, businesses or business lines, which is deemed to occur
upon the completion of eligible transfers, as defined in the Letter Agreement,
of either (a) assets having a total value of 50% or more of the assets of XPO as
of the applicable measurement date or (b) one or more businesses or lines of
business representing at least 50% of XPO's revenue during the applicable
measurement period. The applicable measurement date and period is December 31,
2018 and fiscal year 2018, respectively, for PSU Awards granted in 2018 or
December 31, 2019 and fiscal year 2019 for PSU Awards granted in 2019. Each
Letter Agreement also, as an additional retention mechanism, provides that if
the PSU Awards vest upon the occurrence of a change in control under this new
clause, the shares of XPO common stock delivered pursuant to the vested PSU
Awards (less shares withheld to cover taxes) will be subject to clawback if the
Executive voluntarily terminates his employment for any reason or the
Executive's employment is terminated by XPO for cause, in each case, within two
years following such change in control. Such shares will also be subject to a
lock-up during such two-year period.

The Letter Agreement with Mr. Jacobs also provides that his continued service as
a non-employee director of XPO following his termination of employment will be
treated as continued employment for purposes of the new clawback provision
applicable to the PSU Awards (if such termination of employment occurs during
the clawback period) and for purposes of the service-based vesting conditions
applicable to his Cash LTI Award. Under certain circumstances described in the
Letter Agreement, Mr. Jacobs's cessation of service as a non-employee director
will result in the clawback obligation with respect to his PSU Awards (if
otherwise applicable) ceasing to apply and full or partial vesting of his Cash
LTI Award.
