Saia, Inc. (SAIA) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

Market Penetration for Saia, Inc. (SAIA) centers on extracting more value and volume from the existing national footprint, especially as the company navigates muted volume trends in legacy markets.

Increase LTL pricing discipline, targeting a revenue per shipment increase above the Q2 2025 rate of 2.7%. This figure represents the actual year-over-year increase in LTL revenue per shipment, excluding fuel surcharge, achieved in the second quarter of 2025. Revenue per shipment, including the fuel surcharge, showed an increase of 1.8% in the same period, with the ex-fuel revenue per shipment landing at $298.71 for Q2 2025.

Drive volume through the 213 existing terminals, leveraging the 61% of US zip codes now within 50 miles of a facility. This coverage represents a significant build-out from approximately 35% coverage in 2017.

Focus sales efforts on converting competitor market share, especially in legacy markets where volume is muted. In Q2 2025, LTL shipments per workday decreased by 2.8% year-over-year, underscoring the softness in established areas. Conversely, terminals open fewer than three years showed operational traction, achieving about a 4% sequential improvement in shipments per workday from Q1 2025 to Q2 2025.

Optimize load factor to improve the Q2 2025 operating ratio of 87.8% by increasing freight density. This ratio compares to 83.3% in Q2 2024. Efforts to increase freight density are supported by increases in shipment weight and tonnage.

Aggressively market the improved service quality, noting the Q1 2025 claims ratio of 0.50%. The claims ratio for Q2 2025 was reported at 0.51%.

Here's a quick look at the key operational metrics from Q2 2025 that inform this penetration focus:

The execution of this market penetration relies on several operational levers:

• Maintain pricing discipline, building on the 2.7% revenue per shipment increase.
• Drive utilization in newer facilities, which saw a 4% sequential shipment improvement in Q2 2025.
• Continue to improve service quality, evidenced by the claims ratio near 0.50%.
• Focus on freight density, as tonnage per workday increased by 1.1% while shipments per workday declined by 2.8% in Q2 2025.

Saia, Inc. (SAIA) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

You're looking at how Saia, Inc. is pushing its existing Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) service into new geographic areas. This is pure Market Development, aiming to sell what you already move well to new customers or places.

Fully capitalize on the existing cross-border partnerships to expand LTL service depth into Mexico and Canada.

Saia, Inc. finalized an exclusive cross-border partnership with Fletes Mexico, via its LTL division Carga Express, on April 1, 2024. As of the third quarter of 2025, approximately 97% of Saia, Inc.'s revenue derived from LTL shipments across the contiguous United States, with the remaining revenue coming from services across North America, which includes Canada and Mexico. For the first nine months of 2025, net capital expenditures totaled $446.1 million, supporting this broader network build-out.

Target new, high-growth US regions with the 5-6 new terminal openings planned for 2025.

Management anticipated opening between 5 to 6 new facilities in 2025. The planned capital expenditures for 2025 were initially projected to exceed $700 million, though later estimates for net capital expenditures settled between $550 million and $600 million as of the third quarter filing. Saia, Inc. ended 2024 with 214 terminals and operated 213 terminals as of October 1, 2025, having achieved direct service across the 48 contiguous U.S. states. Terminals opened in the last three years showed strong performance, with those opened less than three years ago achieving about a 4% sequential improvement in shipments per workday in the second quarter of 2025.

Dedicate sales teams to specific vertical markets (e.g., retail, chemical) in newer geographies for faster volume ramp-up.

The focus on customer acceptance in newer markets is clear from the operational data. While LTL shipments per workday for the third quarter of 2025 were down 1.9% year-over-year to 2.3 million shipments, the LTL revenue per shipment, excluding fuel surcharge, still managed an increase of 0.3% to $294.35. This suggests that the mix of business, potentially driven by dedicated vertical sales efforts, is supporting revenue per unit even when overall shipment counts are soft.

Use the expanded national network to secure large, multi-regional contracts from shippers currently using multiple carriers.

The network expansion, which included acquiring 17 terminals and 11 terminal leases from Yellow Corp.'s bankruptcy auction, is designed to make Saia, Inc. a more attractive single-source provider. The company reported strong contractual renewals at 7.9% in the fourth quarter of 2024, signaling customer commitment to the expanded footprint. The average length of haul for Saia, Inc. was around 893 miles as of the second quarter of 2025, a metric that benefits from a denser, more national network capable of handling longer, multi-regional lanes.

Establish a dedicated sales channel for the non-contiguous US markets (Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico) using third-party logistics (3PL) partners.

While the service footprint extends to North America, specific financial or volume data for dedicated non-contiguous U.S. markets like Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, or the specific 3PL partners used, is not publicly detailed in the latest 2025 reports. The primary revenue driver remains the contiguous U.S. LTL network.

Here are some key 2025 operational metrics that reflect the current state of the market development efforts:

You can see the mixed volume signals in the monthly data, too. For instance, October 2025 LTL shipments per workday declined 3.4% compared to October 2024, but November 2025 showed an increase of 2.6%.

The investment in the physical network is substantial, with management anticipating net capital expenditures for the full year 2025 to be between $550 million and $600 million.

• Saia LTL Freight operates 213 terminals as of late 2025.
• Total debt stood at $219.2 million at the end of the third quarter of 2025.
• The company invested over $2 billion in its operations over the past five years, including over 40 new terminals.
• The Q3 2025 operating ratio was 87.8%, compared to 83.3% in Q2 2024.
• The average LTL weight per shipment in November 2025 was 1,346 pounds.

Saia, Inc. (SAIA) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at Saia, Inc. (SAIA) moving beyond its core Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) strength into new territory. This is the Diversification quadrant of the Ansoff Matrix, which means new services in new markets, or in this case, leveraging existing assets and expertise for entirely new revenue streams. Saia, Inc. posted operating revenues of $839.6 million for the third quarter of 2025, and its trailing twelve-month revenue was $3.233 Billion as of September 30, 2025. The company is investing heavily, guiding for net capital expenditures between $600 million and $650 million for the full year 2025, which suggests the financial capacity for these large strategic shifts.

Acquire a Regional, Non-Asset-Based Brokerage for Full-Truckload (FTL)

Saia, Inc. already offers non-asset truckload services, so acquiring a specialized regional brokerage scales this existing service offering into a new market segment-pure brokerage. This move targets the FTL market, which operates differently from the density-focused LTL network. The goal is to capture more total freight spend from existing customers who might currently use a third-party for their FTL needs. This is a direct play to increase total freight spend captured per customer account.

Launch a Dedicated Supply Chain Consulting Arm

Leveraging the logistics expertise gained from running a national LTL network-which involves complex routing, labor management, and compliance-to offer consulting services is a classic diversification play. This creates a high-margin, low-asset revenue stream. While Saia, Inc. has significant operational costs, like salaries and benefits surging due to a 4.1% wage increase implemented in July 2024, a consulting arm uses intellectual capital, not just physical assets, to generate income.

Enter Warehousing and Fulfillment via Terminal Capacity

You have the real estate footprint to move into short-term storage. As of the end of 2024, Saia, Inc. operated 214 owned and leased terminals. In 2024, the company noted it had about 20% excess capacity in the network, which could be converted to revenue-generating warehouse space. This utilizes fixed assets that might otherwise sit idle during off-peak hours or in less dense markets. This is a tangible asset play to monetize existing infrastructure.

• Terminal count at year-end 2024: 214 facilities.
• Reported excess network capacity (2024): approximately 20%.
• Q3 2025 operating ratio: 85.9%.
• Q2 2025 operating ratio: 87.8%.

Strategic Acquisition of a Technology Firm for External TMS

Selling a proprietary Transportation Management System (TMS) to external shippers is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model bolted onto a logistics company. This diversifies revenue into technology licensing and support fees. IT capital expenditures for Saia, Inc.'s growth plan in 2024 were approximately $50 million, indicating an existing investment base in technology that could be productized.

Offer Dedicated Contract Carriage (DCC) Services

DCC involves running a private fleet solution exclusively for a large customer, moving it outside the core LTL bid/tender process. This provides stable, contracted revenue, contrasting with the more volatile spot-market nature of non-asset truckload brokerage. Purchase transportation expense, which includes non-asset truckload volume, was 7.1% of total revenue in Q2 2025. DCC would convert a portion of that variable spend into a more predictable contract revenue line.

Here's a look at how current operational metrics frame the potential for these new revenue streams:

The move into DCC and non-asset brokerage directly impacts the Purchase Transportation (PT) expense line. In Q2 2025, PT expense was 7.1% of total revenue. A successful DCC offering could stabilize a portion of that spend. Also, consider the recent pricing power: the LTL revenue per hundredweight in Q1 2025 was $24.97, but the October 2025 GRI of 5.9% aims to counter cost inflation from salaries and benefits, which rose 13.9% year-over-year in Q1 2025.
