The Company maintains cargo insurance coverage to protect it from certain business risks. This policy has a per occurrence deductible of $10,000. On September 1, 2020, the Company elected to become self-insured for certain layers of auto liability claims in excess of $2.0 million. Between September 1, 2019 and August 31, 2020, the Company was self-insured for certain layers of auto liability claims in excess of $1.0 million. Prior to September 1, 2019, the Company maintained auto liability insurance coverage for these layers. The Company currently specifically reserves for claims that are expected to exceed $2.0 million when fully developed, based on the facts and circumstances of those claims. The Company maintains workers’ compensation coverage in Arkansas, Florida, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Mississippi with a $0.5 million self-insured retention and a $0.5 million per occurrence excess policy. The Company has elected to opt out of workers’ compensation coverage in Texas and is providing coverage through the P.A.M. Texas Injury Plan. The Company has accrued for estimated losses to pay such claims as well as claims incurred but not yet reported.
