Saia Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Douglas Col added, “after another record year of financial performance, including a record full year operating ratio of 83.1%, our balance sheet positions us well for the inherent cyclicality we are facing in the industrial economy this year. We are taking a measured approach to expansion in 2023 with five terminal openings scheduled for the first half and will be opportunistic with openings beyond those,” concluded Holzgrefe. “Our expansion efforts are at the core of our strategy to enhance customer service and extend our high quality service offering into more communities where our customers do business and where we can offer quality LTL service to new customers. We opened 11 additional terminals this past year and have developed a robust pipeline of more than 30 properties to support additional openings in the years to come,” continued Holzgrefe. “Stepping back and looking at full-year results, it was another successful year for our company as we grew revenue by 22% and operating income by more than 40%.
