Supply Chain Fraud Matter |
(18) | Supply Chain Fraud Matter
During the last week of the Company’s 2025 first quarter, the Company identified a supply chain fraud relating to the Company’s international freight forwarding operations. This supply chain fraud matter does not involve the Company’s core North American truckload services. In connection with this supply chain fraud matter, consolidated revenue and purchased transportation as reported in the Company’s fiscal year 2024, 2023 and 2022 financial results were each overstated by approximately 2 %, 1 %, and less than 0.5 %, respectively. As the overstated amount of revenue was approximately equal to the overstated amount of purchased transportation, the impact on each of operating income and net income, as reported, was less than 1 % in fiscal year 2024 and less than 0.2 % in fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company has performed a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the impact of this supply chain fraud matter in respect of the 2025 first quarter and the financial statements for each prior fiscal year period during which identified instances of fraud relating to this matter occurred. In connection therewith, the Company concluded that such impact was immaterial with respect to each such fiscal period. The Company’s financial results for the 2025 first quarter and for the thirty-nine week period ended September 27, 2025 included a $ 4.8 million pre-tax expense, or $ 0.10 per basic and diluted share, relating to this matter. This expense reflects the total currently anticipated aggregate adverse financial impact to Landstar relating to the fraud, net of certain actual and anticipated recoveries and before taking into account the cost of legal and other professional fees as well as additional potential recoveries in the future. This expense was reflected in 2025 first quarter selling, general & administrative costs as an increase to the provision for customer bad debt expense, resulting in an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade accounts receivable. In the 2025 second quarter, this expense was reclassified from the provision for customer bad debt expense within selling, general and administrative costs to the provision for contractor bad debt expense within other operating costs due to the finalization of certain agreements with the affected independent commission sales agency during the 2025 second fiscal quarter. As of the September 27, 2025 consolidated balance sheet, this amount was included in the allowance for doubtful accounts related to other receivables.
