Description: LSTR Landstar System November 05, 2025

Landstar System, Inc. (NASDAQ:LSTR) operates a two-segment business model: Transportation Logistics, which delivers a full suite of truckload, LTL, rail-intermodal, air and ocean services across North America and internationally, and an Insurance segment that underwrites risk for its independent contractor fleet. The logistics arm serves a diversified customer base-including automotive, consumer durables, building products, metals, chemicals, food, heavy machinery, retail, electronics, and defense-while the insurance side provides claims management and reinsurance for those contractors.

Key operating metrics from the most recent 10-K (FY 2023) show revenue of roughly $5.0 billion, with the Transportation Logistics segment contributing about 90 % and the Insurance segment ~10 %. Adjusted EBITDA margin hovered near 6 %, reflecting the capital-light, asset-free model that relies on independent owner-operators. Volume growth was modest (+4 % YoY) despite a tight capacity market, and the company’s exposure to fuel price swings remains a primary cost driver. Macro-level, e-commerce expansion and sustained freight demand in the automotive and industrial sectors are the dominant tailwinds for the cargo-ground industry.
