Item 2.02

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.


On August 4, 2005, EGL, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2005. A copy of the Company’s press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.   


In addition to financial results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the attached press release includes information on the Company’s “free cash flow” for the six months ended June 30, 2005, which is defined as net cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures.  Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure as defined in Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The following is a reconciliation of free cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2005 to net cash flow from operating activities for the same period, which management believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measures:


 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2005

(in millions)

Net cash flow from operating activities


$92.7

Less capital expenditures


$25.4

Free cash flow


$67.3


Management believes that free cash flow provides useful information on the Company’s ability to fund continued growth with internally generated funds.  Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, net cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP as more fully discussed in the Company’s financial statements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

All of the information furnished in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the accompanying exhibit will not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless specifically identified therein as being incorporated therein by reference.  The furnishing of the information in this report is not intended to, and does not, constitute a determination or admission by the Company, that the information in this report is material or complete, or that investors should consider this information before making an investment decision with respect to any security of the Company or any of its affiliates.
