Hub Group CFO, COO Exit Amid Financial Restatement

Hub Group, a leading transportation management company, announced the departure of its Chief Financial Officer Kevin Beth and Chief Operating Officer Brian Meents following a significant accounting error. The company is currently restating its financials due to a $77 million understatement of purchased transportation expenses for the first three quarters of 2025.

Leadership Changes

The departures of Beth and Meents come as Hub Group works to correct its financial statements. Todd Heeter has been appointed as the interim CFO and treasurer. Heeter brings 30 years of experience in finance and accounting to the role, with his initial term set for six months.

"The Hub Group Board of Directors views the integrity of the Company’s financial statements as a key pillar of our ongoing success," said Peter McNitt, lead director, and Gary Yablon, chair of the audit committee.

Financial Restatement

The accounting error has prompted Hub Group to delay the release of its fourth-quarter and full-year results for 2025. The company will also restate results for 2023 and 2024 and delay the 2026 first-quarter financial reporting.

Period Original Reporting Restated Reporting
2023 Reported To be restated
2024 Reported To be restated
2025 Q1-Q3 Understated by $77M To be corrected

Strategic Outlook

Despite these challenges, Hub Group remains optimistic about its future. The company highlighted a successful bid season with balanced demand trends and stronger pricing. Phil Yeager, president, CEO, and vice chairman, emphasized the company's strong customer relationships and market position.

Next Steps

Hub Group plans to file its 2025 annual report, including restated results, by September 14 to comply with Nasdaq's filing rules. The first-quarter 2026 results are also expected by this date. The company is actively seeking a permanent CFO through a national search firm.

The next milestone for Hub Group will be the filing of its restated financials and first-quarter 2026 results by the September deadline.
