Fuel expense decreased $1,242,000 due to lower diesel prices in the quarter. Insurance and losses decreased $266,000 due to lower risk insurance claims offset by increased health insurance claims.

As a result, operating profit this period was $2,703,000 compared to $8,815,000 in the same period last year. Prior year gain on the sale of land was $8,330,000 due to the sale of our former terminal location in Tampa, FL.

Summary and Outlook

The adjustments we made to customer rates and driver pay beginning back in April, 2021 have benefitted us throughout this fiscal year. Our driver count has increased by approximately 12% since October 1 2022, our total revenue per mile is up over 7% and our annualized turnover rate has declined from 77.0% last year to 73.4% in fiscal 2023. While the driver training cost has increased significantly year over year, the added driver capacity has allowed us to add some quality new business with both existing and new customers in a few markets and we are working to continue that trend.

Our balance sheet remained stable with $7.4 million of cash as of June 30, 2023, with no outstanding debt. Through the first nine months we have purchased 52 new tractors. For the remainder of fiscal 2023 we are planning to replace 21 additional tractors (16 are replacing lease units) and anticipate a total capital expenditure of approximately $12 million in fiscal 2023.
