Our business is subject to general economic and business factors that are largely out of our control, any of which could have a materially adverse effect on our operating results. We operate in a highly competitive and fragmented industry, and numerous competitive factors could impair our ability to maintain our current profitability. We derive a significant portion of our revenue from our major customers, the loss of one or more of which could have a materially adverse effect on our business. Increased prices, reduced productivity, and restricted availability of new revenue equipment could cause our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows to suffer. We have significant ongoing capital requirements that could harm our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows if we are unable to generate sufficient cash from our operations. Ongoing insurance and claims expenses could significantly affect our earnings. Increases in compensation or difficulty in attracting drivers could affect our profitability and ability to grow. Fluctuations in the price or availability of fuel may increase our cost of operation, which could materially and adversely affect our profitability. Seasonality and the impact of weather can affect our profitability. We operate in a highly regulated industry and increased costs of compliance with, or liability for violation of, existing or future regulations could have a materially adverse effect on our business. Service instability in the railroad industry could increase our operating costs and reduce our ability to offer intermodal services, which could adversely affect our revenue, results of operations, and customer relationships. Our operations are subject to various environmental laws and regulations, the violation of which could result in substantial fines or penalties. Our management information systems may prove inadequate.
