On October 23, 2024, Matt Summerville from D.A. Davidson set a price target of $80 for TFII. At that time, the stock was trading at $134.91, indicating a significant price difference of approximately -40.70% from the target.

TFI International's recent Q3 2024 earnings call, led by CEO Alain Bedard, attracted attention from major financial institutions like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. Despite the interest, TFII reported earnings of $1.60 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.79. This slight improvement from last year's $1.57 per share did not meet market expectations, as highlighted by Zacks.
The company reported an operating income of $203.3 million, up from $200.6 million in the previous year. This growth was driven by business acquisitions, though it was partially offset by weaker market conditions. Net income for the quarter was $128 million, down from $133.3 million in Q3 2023, but adjusted net income rose slightly to $136.6 million.
TFI International saw a significant increase in net cash from operating activities, reaching $351.1 million, up from $278.7 million in Q3 2023. Free cash flow also improved to $272.5 million, with over $130 million used to repay debt. The Board approved a quarterly dividend of $0.45, a 13% increase, reflecting the company's commitment to returning value to shareholders.
