šµ Top 10 Highest-Paid CEOs in Freight Brokerage
Inside: FedEx's market triumph, the controversy at Yellow Corp, Waabi and Uber Freight's decade deal, and the hammer comes down on PPP loan-scamming trucker.
Struggling truckload carrier Yellow Corp. gains a reprieve from lenders, waiving certain financial targets, and giving the company time to navigate challenges from the Teamsters union and bankruptcy threats.
Yellow Corp., a less-than-truckload carrier, has negotiated a deal with its lenders that absolves it from meeting certain financial targets. In exchange for this leeway, Yellow Corp. has agreed to a series of stipulations, including reporting to a third-party "operational adviser." This agreement gives Yellow Corp. the breathing space it needs to navigate ongoing conflicts with the Teamsters Union and potential bankruptcy threats. The company also sold a terminal in Compton, California, for $80 million as part of its reorganization efforts to pay off over $1.3 billion in loans and right its balance sheet.
