In a research report published earlier today by Deutsche Bank, YRC Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: YRCW [FREE Stock Trend Analysis])is attempting to streamline operations and improve its cost structure.
According to Deutsche Bank, “YRCW plans to continue streamlining its service offerings in 2012 by selling off surplus assets and focusing on its core competencies (YRC Freight and Regional). YRC Freight will focus on the 2-5 day transit lines (or a roughly 500-3,500 mile length of haul [LOH]), while Regional will move mostly shorter LOH shipments (1-2 days). The new approach appears to be driving increased network density with tons/day up 6.8% y/y at YRC Freight and up 4.7% y/y at Regional in Q4 2011. YRCW will need to continue to strengthen its service proposition and manage cost across its two networks to drive needed margin expansion. We expect the company to continue to divest non-core operations and facilities to improve liquidity and better streamline operations.”
Deutsche Bank maintains its Hold rating on YRC Worldwide, which closed Friday at $8.64.
