Old Dominion was trading at EUR 156.50 at Lang & Schwarz on October 1, 2026 at 2:46 p.m. CEST, up 2.00 percent from the prior close of EUR 153.43. On September 30, Business Wire reported that Old Dominion Freight Line plans to release third-quarter 2026 results before trading opens on October 28, 2026.
Results date sets the next test
The October 28 release will give investors the next formal measure of pricing power and freight demand. The company also plans a conference call at 10:00 a.m. ET that day, according to Old Dominion Freight Line on its investor-relations page.
In the second quarter of 2026, total revenue rose 10.40 percent year over year to USD 1.55 billion, while operating income increased 30.00 percent to USD 465.3 million, according to StockTitan. Net income reached USD 350.6 million and diluted earnings per share rose 32.30 percent to USD 1.68 in that quarter.
Pricing and volume diverge
Old Dominion's August 2026 operating update showed revenue per day up 12.40 percent from August 2025, but LTL tons per day down 0.90 percent. Business Wire also reported that quarter-to-date LTL revenue per hundredweight increased 11.30 percent, or 4.80 percent excluding fuel surcharges.
The combination points to a specific operating trade-off: higher yields are supporting revenue while shipment volumes remain under pressure. On September 21, Old Dominion announced a 4.90 percent general rate increase, as reported by MarketScreener.
Analysts weigh pricing power
Barclays analyst Eric Morgan maintained a Hold rating and a USD 220.00 price target on September 29, 2026, according to Markets Insider. The view puts emphasis on the balance between strong pricing metrics and weaker physical volumes rather than on revenue growth alone.
