Saia Inc's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAIA#NASDAQ">SAIA</a>) daily tonnage turned negative in May, following the company's "shocking" first-quarter results, according to JPMorgan.
The Saia Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58502bcfee7bf6000190795f/brian-ossenbeck">Analyst Brian Ossenbeck</a> reiterated an Overweight rating, while reducing the price target from $299 to $285.
The Saia Thesis: The company had been reporting consistently strong headline tonnage growth, but in May, it fell 0.4% year-on-year, Ossenbeck said in the note.

The performance in May still represents 9.4% growth on a two-year stack, he added.
"Shipments per day grew +3.5% at ramping facilities and fell -4.5% at legacy facilities in the month, the latter of which management noted is still an outperformance of most peers in the current depressed demand backdrop," the analyst wrote.
He reduced the tons per day forecast for the second quarter by 500 basis points to 1%, to reflect lower shipments per day and weight per shipment estimates.
SAIA Price Action: Shares of Saia had risen by 2.2% to $256.96 at the time of publication on Monday.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Saia Stock In The Last 15 Years

Goldman Sachs analyst Jordan Alliger upgraded Saia, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAIA#NASDAQ">SAIA</a>)&nbsp;from Neutral to Buy and raised the price forecast <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SAIA/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">from&nbsp;$387&nbsp;to&nbsp;$410</a>.
The analyst believes that the company can continue to gain market share and grow its tonnage at a faster pace than overall industry trends.
Alliger cites regional cross-selling opportunities with current and new customers and potentially increased penetration of national accounts by offering a wider service area through its recent network expansion as growth catalysts.
Further, increased Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) volume growth should lead to better capacity utilization, which in turn reduces cost per shipment and significantly accelerates margins, adds the analyst.
Meanwhile, the analyst notes that the company faces a challenge in achieving the necessary density to offset terminal expansion costs amid a freight recession.
This, combined with persistent weakness in legacy SAIA volumes due to soft LTL industry fundamentals, has recently resulted in margin underperformance, adds the analyst.
Alliger says that this situation could lead to additional quarterly EPS volatility until industry volumes improve, which would enhance network productivity and efficiency.
The analyst believes that this will put SAIA back on a path toward significant incremental margin opportunities and above-average long-term industry EPS growth rates despite possible near-term margin pressure.
Overall, Alliger thinks that it is feasible for SAIA to move into the low-80% operating ratio (OR) range and eventually below 80%, compared to an OR of over 90% prior to COVID-19 and in the first quarter of 2025.
Price Action: SAIA shares are down 1.5% at $260.22 at the last check on Monday.

Saia, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAIA#NASDAQ">SAIA</a>) reported weaker-than-expected earnings for its first <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SAIA/earnings">quarter on Friday</a>.
The company posted quarterly earnings of $1.86 per share which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $2.77 per share. The company reported quarterly sales of $787.58 million which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $810.94 million.
Saia President and CEO, Fritz Holzgrefe, said, &#8220;Primarily resulting from an uncertain macroeconomic environment, we did not see the typical sequential growth in shipments through the quarter, with March shipments flat to February, causing our first quarter revenues to fall well below our expectations. Additionally, while the first quarter is typically impacted by adverse weather events, unusually harsh winter weather in the southern part of the country prompted closures and limited operations in some of our most dense and most profitable regions. Despite these headwinds, we experienced shipment growth of 4.6% for the full quarter, led by terminals opened in the past three years, and we continue to be pleased with customer acceptance in these markets.&#8221;
Saia shares fell 2.4% to trade at $239.72 on Monday.
