Employee Benefit Plans | NOTE 14. Employee Benefit Plans We have one profit-sharing plan as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. At our discretion, we partially match qualified contributions made by employees to the plan. We incurred expense of $2.4 million related to this plan in 2016 and $1.9 million of expense in both 2015 and 2014. In January 2005, we established the Hub Group, Inc. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) to provide added incentive for the retention of certain key employees. Under the Plan, participants can elect to defer certain compensation. Accounts will grow on a tax-deferred basis to the participant. Restricted investments included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets represent the fair value of the mutual funds and other security investments related to the Plan as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in income and expense and offset the change in the deferred compensation liability. We provide a 50% match on the first 6% of employee compensation deferred under the Plan, with a maximum match equivalent to 3% of base salary. In addition, we have a legacy deferred compensation plan. There are no new contributions being made into this legacy plan. We incurred expense of $0.3 million per year related to the employer match for these plans in 2016, 2015 and 2014. The liabilities related to these plans as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 were $21.1 million and $21.3 million, respectively.
