AI Analysis

I look at Schneider as a cyclical freight and logistics operator, not a consumer staple. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $1.6B and net income was $49.7M, or $0.28 diluted EPS. That was stronger than fiscal Q2 2025, the quarter ended 2025-06-30, when revenue was $1.4B, net income was $36.0M, and diluted EPS was $0.20. But the longer record is uneven: FY2025, ended 2025-12-31, had revenue of $5.7B, net income of $103.6M, and diluted EPS of $0.59, down from FY2024's $117.0M net income and $0.66 EPS, and far below FY2023's $238.5M net income and $1.34 EPS. On health, debt-to-equity is 0.13, trailing FCF is $207.8M, FCF yield is 3.8%, and the FairStock Piotroski F-Score is 8/9. Still, FairStock calculates ROE of 3.68% and ROCE of 2.22%, while the latest quarter's net margin was 3.17%. Trucking has scale advantages, but pricing is competitive and customers can switch. I do not see a wide moat. Valuation is the rub. At the close on 2026-10-13, the price was $31.20. FairStock calculates a P/E of 48.75, P/B of 1.79, EV/EBITDA of 8.96, PEG of 1.28, and a Graham Number of $15.85, implying a -96.85% margin of safety. FairStock Score is 21/100. I like the low leverage and recent profit improvement, but paying nearly 49 times earnings for a cyclical with low returns on capital requires a strong recovery. This is not a Graham-style bargain at today's price.
In plain English: Schneider National is a freight and logistics company that moves goods by truck, rail container and brokerage services across North America. The business rises and falls with the economy: the latest quarter showed better sales and profit than a year earlier, but annual profits have been uneven and margins are thin. At the recent stock price, the shares look expensive compared with the company's earnings and accounting value, even though debt is low.
