Summary

Expeditors International reported second-quarter 2026 revenues up 32% and earnings per share up 51% to $2.03 versus a year earlier, with airfreight services revenue up 57% on demand from technology customers building AI infrastructure. The company announced a restructuring of its Global Technology group incurring $25 million in related expenses, and noted that a February 2026 U.S. Supreme Court ruling invalidated 2025 IEEPA tariffs while new U.S. tariffs were broadly imposed in July 2026.

Key points

  • Operating income rose 41% and net earnings to shareholders rose 45% compared with the second quarter of 2025.
  • Ocean freight and ocean services revenue increased 5% as average buy and sell rates and containers shipped began rising late in the quarter after three consecutive quarters of declines.
  • Cash from operating activities was $179 million, and $461 million was returned to shareholders through stock repurchases and dividends.
  • The conflict with Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz disrupted operations in Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, though the first-half 2026 financial impact on the MAIR region was not material.
