Ryder System Beats Estimates as Used Vehicle Market Recovers
Rising demand in the used vehicle and freight sectors pushed Ryder System’s second-quarter profit to $133 million, a modest increase over the $132 million reported during the same period last year. The logistics firm outperformed Wall Street expectations, signaling a stabilization in core transportation markets.
Chief Executive John Diez attributed the growth to improved market conditions and strong customer confidence, which accelerated contractual sales activity. Bolstered by these results, the company tightened its full-year guidance, raising the lower bound of its adjusted earnings per share outlook to a range of $14.40 to $14.80. For the upcoming third quarter, Ryder projects adjusted earnings between $4 and $4.20 per share, tracking closely with analyst predictions of $4.18.
