NOTES TO UNAUDITED

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. Interim Financial Statements

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Hub Group, Inc. (the “Company,” “Hub,” “we,” “us” or “our”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The financial statements reflect, in our opinion, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present our financial position as of March 31, 2023 and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year due partially to seasonality.

Reclassifications: Due to presentation changes made in our consolidated income statement, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

NOTE 3. Segment Reporting

As we have continued to expand our service offerings and diversify our business, we have also made changes to the financial information that our CEO, who has been identified as our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), uses to make operating and capital decisions. Beginning with the first quarter of 2023, we concluded that we had two reportable segments: Intermodal and Transportation Solutions (“ITS”) and Logistics which are based primarily on the services each segment provides. Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 have been recast below to conform with the current period presentation. Our ITS Segment includes our asset-light business lines: intermodal and dedicated trucking. Our Logistics Segment includes our non-asset business lines: managed transportation, truck brokerage, final mile, consolidation, warehousing and fulfillment.

7

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions. Our Intermodal and Transportation Solutions segment offers high service, nationwide door-to-door intermodal transportation, providing value, visibility and reliability in both transcontinental and local lanes by combining rail transportation with local trucking. This segment also includes our trucking operations which provides drayage for our intermodal service offering and serves our customers who require high service local and regional trucking transportation using equipment dedicated to their needs. Our dedicated service operation offers fleets of equipment and drivers to each customer on a contract basis, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations. As of March 31, 2023, our trucking transportation operation consisted of approximately 2,300 tractors, 3,300 employee drivers and 4,400 trailers. We also contract for services with approximately 650 independent owner-operators. We arrange for the movement of our customers’ freight in one of our approximately 48,000 containers.

Logistics. Our Logistics segment offers a full range of trucking transportation services, including dry van, expedited, less-than-truckload, refrigerated and flatbed, all of which is provided by third party carriers with whom we contract. This segment also offers a wide range of logistics services including transportation management, shipment optimization, load consolidation, mode selection, carrier management, load planning and execution, warehousing, fulfillment, cross-docking and consolidation services. We leverage proprietary technology along with collaborative relationships with third party service providers to deliver cost savings and performance-enhancing supply chain services to our clients. Our transportation management offering also serves as a source of volume for our intermodal and transportation solutions segment.

Separate balance sheets are not prepared by segment, and as a result, assets are not separately identifiable or presented by segment. Our CEO uses consolidated asset information to make capital decisions.

The following tables summarize our financial and operating data by segment (in thousands):

NOTE 4. Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate borrowings was $7.5 million less than the historical carrying value of $334.1 million. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company's fixed-rate borrowings was $11.7 million less than the historical carrying value of $342.5 million. The fair value of the fixed-rate borrowings was estimated using an income approach based on current interest rates available to the Company for borrowings on similar terms and maturities.

We consider as cash equivalents all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our cash and temporary investments were with high quality financial institutions in demand deposit accounts, savings accounts, checking accounts and money market accounts.

8

Restricted investments included $19.2 million and $18.1 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of mutual funds which are reported at fair value. These investments relate to our nonqualified deferred compensation plan and insurance deposits.

Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on valuation techniques which consider prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. These valuation methods are based on either quoted market prices (Level 1) or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2), or unobservable inputs (Level 3). Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and mutual funds and related liabilities are defined as “Level 1,” while long-term debt is defined as “Level 2” of the fair value hierarchy in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification.

NOTE 5. Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements

In February 2022, we entered into a five-year, $350 million unsecured credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) the secured overnight financing rate (published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, “SOFR”), plus a specified margin based on the term of such borrowing, plus a specified margin based upon Hub’s total net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (the "Total Net Leverage Ratio"), or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the administrative agent's prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% and one-month SOFR) plus a specified margin based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio. The specified margin for SOFR loans varies from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points per annum. The specified margin for base rate loans varies from 0.0 to 75.0 basis points per annum. Hub must also pay (1) a commitment fee ranging from 10.0 to 25.0 basis points per annum (based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio) on the aggregate unused commitments and (2) a letter of credit fee ranging from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points per annum (based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio) on the undrawn amount of letters of credit.

We have standby letters of credit that expire in 2023. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our letters of credit were $43.4 million.

As March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no borrowings under the Credit Agreement and our unused and available borrowings were $306.6 million. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

We have entered into various Equipment Notes (“Notes”) for the purchase of tractors, trailers, containers and refrigeration units. The Notes are secured by the underlying equipment financed in the agreements.

Our outstanding Notes are as follows (in thousands):

	March 31,			December 31,
	2023			2022
Interim funding for equipment received and expected to be converted to an equipment note in subsequent year; interest paid at a variable rate	$	4,124		$	6,137

NOTE 6. Legal Matters

The Company is involved in certain claims and pending litigation arising from the normal conduct of business, including putative class-action lawsuits involving employment related claims. Based on management's present knowledge, management does not believe that any potential unrecorded loss contingencies arising from these pending matters are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's overall financial position, operating results, or cash flows after taking into account any existing accruals for settlements or losses determined to be probable and estimable. However, actual outcomes could be material to the Company's financial position, operating results, or cash flows for any particular period.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

We are a leading supply chain solutions provider in North America that offers comprehensive transportation and logistics management services focused on reliability, visibility and value for our customers. Our service offerings include a full range of freight transportation and logistics services, some of which are provided by assets we own and operate, and some of which are provided by third parties with whom we contract. Our services include intermodal, truckload, less-than-truckload, flatbed, temperature-controlled, dedicated and regional trucking. Other services include full outsource logistics solutions, transportation management services, freight consolidation, warehousing and fulfillment, final mile delivery, parcel and international services.

We service a large and diversified customer base in a broad range of industries, including retail, consumer products and durable goods. We believe our strategy to offer multi-modal supply chain management solutions serves to strengthen and deepen our relationships with our customers and allows us to provide a more cost effective and higher service solution.

Beginning in first quarter 2023, we have two reportable segments - Intermodal and Transportation Solutions, and Logistics, which are based primarily on the services each segment provides. Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, have been recast to conform with the current period presentation.

11

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions. Our Intermodal and Transportation Solutions segment offers high service, nationwide door-to-door intermodal transportation, providing value, visibility and reliability in both transcontinental and local lanes by combining rail transportation with local trucking. This segment also includes our trucking operations which provides drayage for our intermodal service offering and serves our customers who require high service local and regional trucking transportation using equipment dedicated to their needs. Our dedicated service operation offers fleets of equipment and drivers to each customer on a contract basis, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations. We arrange for the movement of our customers’ freight in one of our approximately 48,000 containers. We contract with railroads to provide transportation for the long-haul portion of the shipment between rail terminals. Local pickup and delivery services (referred to as “drayage”) between origin or destination and rail terminals are provided by our own trucking operations and third-parties with whom we contract. As of March 31, 2023, our trucking transportation operation consisted of approximately 2,300 tractors, 3,300 employee drivers and 4,400 trailers. We also contract for services with approximately 650 independent owner-operators.

Logistics. Our Logistics segment offers a full range of trucking transportation services, including dry van, expedited, less-than-truckload, refrigerated and flatbed, all of which is provided by third party carriers with whom we contract. This segment also offers a wide range of logistics services including transportation management, shipment optimization, load consolidation, mode selection, carrier management, load planning and execution, warehousing, fulfillment, cross-docking and consolidation services. Many of the customers for these solutions are consumer goods companies who sell into the retail channel. Our business operates or has access to approximately 9.5 million square feet of warehousing and cross-dock space across North America, to which our customers ship their goods to be stored and distributed to destinations including residences, retail stores and other commercial locations. These services offer our customers shipment visibility, transportation cost savings, high service and compliance with retailers’ increasingly stringent supply chain requirements

In August 2022, we acquired TAGG Logistics, LLC which enhanced our presence in the consolidation and fulfillment space and added a complementary e-commerce offering to serve our customers' multimodal transportation and logistics needs. The acquisition added scale to our logistics segment.

We are working on several yield enhancement projects including network optimization, matching of inbound and outbound loads, reducing empty miles, improving our recovery of accessorial costs, increasing our driver and asset utilization, reducing repositioning costs, providing holistic solutions and improving low profit freight. Hub’s top 50 customers represent approximately 63% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, while one customer accounted for more than 10% of our quarterly revenue in 2023. We use various performance indicators to manage our business. We closely monitor profit levels for our top customers. We also evaluate on-time performance, customer service, cost per load and daily sales outstanding by customer account. Vendor cost changes and vendor service levels are also monitored closely.

Uncertainties and risks to our outlook include the following: inflation, a slowdown in consumer spending (driven by, among other factors, rising inflation, rapid increases in gasoline prices, recession, increases in interest rates, and geopolitical concerns), a shift by consumers to spending on services at the expense of goods, an increase of retailers' inventory levels, a significant increase in transportation supply in the marketplace, aggressive pricing actions by our competitors and any inability to pass cost increases, such as transportation and warehouse costs, through to our customers, all of which could have a materially negative impact on our revenue, profitability and cash flow in 2023.

Operating Revenue

Total consolidated operating revenue decreased 11% to $1,152 million in 2023 from $1,298 million in 2022.

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions (“ITS”) revenue decreased 9% to $709 million primarily due to a 12% decrease in intermodal volume, partially offset by a 3% increase in intermodal revenue per load (price, fuel, and mix) and a 5% increase in dedicated revenue resulting from growth of existing customers. ITS operating income decreased to $49 million, 7% of revenue, as compared to $86 million, 11% of revenue, in the prior year due to lower volume, higher equipment costs and lower surcharges. These headwinds were partially offset by lower drayage costs as we increased the portion of drayage handled on our own fleet to 74% in first quarter 2023 as compared to 58% in the prior year, as well as an improvement in profitability at our Dedicated service line.

Logistics revenue decreased 13% to $469 million primarily due to lower revenue per load in our brokerage business line and lower managed transportation business line revenue, partially offset by revenue from TAGG. First quarter operating income was 6% of revenue as compared to 5% last year. Operating income was unchanged at $29 million, as lower revenue was offset by lower purchased transportation costs and our yield management initiatives.

The following is a summary of operating results and certain items in the consolidated statements of income as a percentage of revenue:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2023				2022

CONSOLIDATED OPERATING EXPENSES

Purchased Transportation and Warehousing

Purchased transportation and warehousing costs decreased 13% to $867 million in 2023 from $995 million in 2022.

Purchased transportation and warehousing costs declined as compared to prior year due to lower volumes, reductions in third party carrier costs per load and decreased use of third-party carriers for drayage in ITS, partially offset by higher equipment and rail costs in ITS.

13

Salaries and Benefits

Salaries and benefits increased to $137 million in 2023 from $129 million in 2022. As a percentage of revenue, salaries and benefits increased to 11.9% in 2023 from 9.9% in 2022.

The salaries and benefits increase of $8 million was primarily due to $28 million of incremental expense related to growth of our driver and warehouse employee headcount, partially offset by a $19 million reduction in office employee compensation due to lower headcount and lower incentive compensation expense.

Headcount, which includes drivers, warehouse personnel and office employees, was 6,084 and 4,784 as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in headcount related primarily to drivers as we have expanded the portion of drayage coverage handled by our own fleet, as well as the acquisition of TAGG, which added 669 warehouse employees.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $35 million in 2023 from $31 million in 2022. This increase was related primarily to increased container and tractor depreciation expense as well as the amortization of intangibles related to the acquisition of TAGG. This expense, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 3.1% in 2023 from 2.4% in 2022. Depreciation expense includes transportation equipment, technology investments, leasehold improvements, office equipment and building improvements.

Insurance and Claims

Insurance and claims expense increased to $13 million in 2023 from $9 million in 2022. This increase was related primarily to increased workers compensation costs and auto liability expenses not covered by insurance deductibles which increased due to an increase in mileage run on our own trucking fleet. These expenses, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 1.1% in 2023 from 0.7% in 2022.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased to $26 million in 2023 from $23 million in 2022. These expenses, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 2.2% in 2023 from 1.8% in 2022.

The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in rent expense, professional services expense and IT software expense partially due to the acquisition of TAGG, partially offset by lower legal expenses.

Gain on Sale of Assets, Net

Net gains on the sale of equipment decreased to $4 million in 2023 from $5 million in 2022. The decrease in net gains resulted from lower average gain per unit sold in 2023 as compared to 2022. These gains, as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 0.3% in 2023 from 0.4% in 2022.

Other Income (Expense)

Other expense remained consistent at $2 million in both 2023 and in 2022. Interest expense increased to $3.0 million in 2023 from $2.0 million in 2022. This increase was due primarily to higher interest rates on our debt. Interest income increased to $1 million in 2023 due to higher interest rates on our cash balance.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes decreased to $15 million in 2023 from $26 million in 2022. We provided for income taxes using an effective rate of 19.4% in 2023 and an effective rate of 22.9% in 2022. The first quarter 2023 effective tax rate of 19.4% benefitted primarily from a change in state apportionment methodology.

14

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our financing and liquidity strategy is to fund operating cash payments through cash received from the provision of services, cash on hand, and to a lesser extent, from cash received from the sale of equipment. As of March 31, 2023, we had $343 million of cash and $19 million of restricted investments. We generally fund our purchases of transportation equipment through the issuance of secured, fixed rate Equipment Notes. Payments for our other investing activities, investments in warehousing improvements and our capitalized technology investments, have been funded by cash on hand or cash flows from operations. Cash used in financing activities including the purchase of treasury stock has been funded by cash from operations or cash on hand. We have not historically used our Credit Facility to fund our operating, investing or financing cash needs, though it is available to fund future cash requirements as needed. In the last three years, we have funded our business acquisitions from cash on hand, though in the future we may elect to fund these activities through a combination of cash on hand, borrowings on our Credit Facility, or from issuance of secured or unsecured debt. Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe cash on hand and cash received from the provision of services, along with other financing sources, will provide us the necessary capital to fund transactions and achieve our planned growth for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.

Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $89 million, which resulted primarily from net income of $62 million plus non-cash charges of $52 million, partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $25 million.

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $89 million in 2023 compared to $80 million in 2022. The $9 million increase in cash flow was primarily due to increases in the change of assets and liabilities of $23 million and non-cash charges of $12 million, partially offset by a decrease in net income of $26 million.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $17 million which resulted from capital expenditures of $27 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of equipment of $10 million. Capital expenditures of $27 million related primarily to tractors of $14 million, containers of $6 million, technology investments of $4 million and the remainder for leasehold improvements.

Capital expenditures decreased by approximately $4 million in 2023 as compared to 2022. The 2023 decrease was due to decreases in container purchases of $6 million and spend on our corporate headquarters of $4 million. These decreases were partially offset by increased tractor purchases of $3 million, leasehold improvements of $2 million and increased spend for technology investments of $1 million.

In 2023, we estimate capital expenditures will range from $140 million to $150 million. This range is lower than the estimate we disclosed in our 2022 10-K of $170 million to $190 million, as we have reduced our planned purchase of containers in 2023. We expect transportation equipment purchases to range from $116 million to $124 million and technology and other investments will range from $24 million to $26 million. We plan to fund these expenditures with a combination of cash and debt.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $17 million which includes repayments of long-term debt of $29 million, cash for stock tendered for payments of withholding taxes of $8 million and finance lease payments of $1 million, partially offset by the proceeds from the issuance of debt of $21 million. Debt incurred in 2023 was used to fund the purchase of transportation equipment.

The $8 million increase in cash used in financing activities for 2023 versus 2022 was primarily due to the increase in repayments of long-term debt of $3 million, less proceeds from the issuance of debt of $3 million and an increase in cash paid for stock related to employee withholding taxes of $2 million.

As a result of anticipated favorable timing differences, primarily related to depreciation and compensation, we expect our cash paid for income taxes in 2023 to be less than our income tax expense.

See Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements for details related to interest rates and commitment fees.

We have standby letters of credit that expire in 2023. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our letters of credit were $43 million.

At March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we had no borrowings under the Credit Agreement and our unused and available borrowings were $307 million. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

We are continually evaluating the possible effects of current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts in operational cash flows, including the risks of declines in the overall freight market and our customers’ liquidity and ability to pay. We are monitoring working capital on a daily basis and are in frequent communications with our customers.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in our market risk as of March 31, 2023 from that presented in our 2022 10-K.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of March 31, 2023, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)). Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

On August 22, 2022, we completed the acquisition of TAGG. We are currently integrating processes, employees, technologies and operations. Management will continue to evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting as we complete our integration.

PART II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For information regarding legal proceedings, see Note 6 “Legal Matters” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1. “Financial Statements.”

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investing in shares of our stock involves certain risks, including those identified and described in Part I, Item 1A of our 2022 10-K, as well as cautionary statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including those under the caption “Forward-Looking Information” in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the SEC.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In October 2022, the Board authorized the purchase of up to $200 million of our Class A Common Stock pursuant to a share repurchase program (the “2022 Program”). Under the 2022 Program, the shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, from time to time subject to market and other conditions. The approved share repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares and the program may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

We purchased 95,514 shares for $7.6 million during the first quarter of 2023 and 66,369 shares for $5.6 million during the first quarter of 2022 related to employee withholding upon vesting of restricted stock. The table below gives information on a monthly basis regarding the number of shares delivered to us by employees to satisfy the mandatory tax withholding requirement upon vesting of restricted stock during the first quarter of 2023. These shares do not reduce the repurchase authority under the 2022 Program.

Segment Reporting

NOTE 3. Segment Reporting

As we have continued to expand our service offerings and diversify our business, we have also made changes to the financial information that our CEO, who has been identified as our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), uses to make operating and capital decisions. Beginning with the first quarter of 2023, we concluded that we had two reportable segments: Intermodal and Transportation Solutions (“ITS”) and Logistics which are based primarily on the services each segment provides. Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 have been recast below to conform with the current period presentation. Our ITS Segment includes our asset-light business lines: intermodal and dedicated trucking. Our Logistics Segment includes our non-asset business lines: managed transportation, truck brokerage, final mile, consolidation, warehousing and fulfillment.

Intermodal and Transportation Solutions. Our Intermodal and Transportation Solutions segment offers high service, nationwide door-to-door intermodal transportation, providing value, visibility and reliability in both transcontinental and local lanes by combining rail transportation with local trucking. This segment also includes our trucking operations which provides drayage for our intermodal service offering and serves our customers who require high service local and regional trucking transportation using equipment dedicated to their needs. Our dedicated service operation offers fleets of equipment and drivers to each customer on a contract basis, as well as the management and infrastructure to operate according to the customer’s high service expectations. As of March 31, 2023, our trucking transportation operation consisted of approximately 2,300 tractors, 3,300 employee drivers and 4,400 trailers. We also contract for services with approximately 650 independent owner-operators. We arrange for the movement of our customers’ freight in one of our approximately 48,000 containers.

Logistics. Our Logistics segment offers a full range of trucking transportation services, including dry van, expedited, less-than-truckload, refrigerated and flatbed, all of which is provided by third party carriers with whom we contract. This segment also offers a wide range of logistics services including transportation management, shipment optimization, load consolidation, mode selection, carrier management, load planning and execution, warehousing, fulfillment, cross-docking and consolidation services. We leverage proprietary technology along with collaborative relationships with third party service providers to deliver cost savings and performance-enhancing supply chain services to our clients. Our transportation management offering also serves as a source of volume for our intermodal and transportation solutions segment.

Separate balance sheets are not prepared by segment, and as a result, assets are not separately identifiable or presented by segment. Our CEO uses consolidated asset information to make capital decisions.

The following tables summarize our financial and operating data by segment (in thousands):

Fair Value Measurement

NOTE 4. Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate borrowings was $7.5 million less than the historical carrying value of $334.1 million. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company's fixed-rate borrowings was $11.7 million less than the historical carrying value of $342.5 million. The fair value of the fixed-rate borrowings was estimated using an income approach based on current interest rates available to the Company for borrowings on similar terms and maturities.

We consider as cash equivalents all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our cash and temporary investments were with high quality financial institutions in demand deposit accounts, savings accounts, checking accounts and money market accounts.

Restricted investments included $19.2 million and $18.1 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of mutual funds which are reported at fair value. These investments relate to our nonqualified deferred compensation plan and insurance deposits.

Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on valuation techniques which consider prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. These valuation methods are based on either quoted market prices (Level 1) or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2), or unobservable inputs (Level 3). Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and mutual funds and related liabilities are defined as “Level 1,” while long-term debt is defined as “Level 2” of the fair value hierarchy in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements

NOTE 5. Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements

In February 2022, we entered into a five-year, $350 million unsecured credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) the secured overnight financing rate (published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, “SOFR”), plus a specified margin based on the term of such borrowing, plus a specified margin based upon Hub’s total net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (the "Total Net Leverage Ratio"), or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the administrative agent's prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% and one-month SOFR) plus a specified margin based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio. The specified margin for SOFR loans varies from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points per annum. The specified margin for base rate loans varies from 0.0 to 75.0 basis points per annum. Hub must also pay (1) a commitment fee ranging from 10.0 to 25.0 basis points per annum (based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio) on the aggregate unused commitments and (2) a letter of credit fee ranging from 100.0 to 175.0 basis points per annum (based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio) on the undrawn amount of letters of credit.

We have standby letters of credit that expire in 2023. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our letters of credit were $43.4 million.

As March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no borrowings under the Credit Agreement and our unused and available borrowings were $306.6 million. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

We have entered into various Equipment Notes (“Notes”) for the purchase of tractors, trailers, containers and refrigeration units. The Notes are secured by the underlying equipment financed in the agreements.

Our outstanding Notes are as follows (in thousands):
