Exhibit 99.1
 
Hub Group, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2010 Earnings
 
 
DOWNERS GROVE, IL, July 21, 2010, -- Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HUBG) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2010.


“The return of a robust freight market coupled with the retention of our long-standing customer relationships and success in the bids this year, helped drive our impressive volume and earnings growth this quarter” said David P. Yeager, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  “With the additional density, we have improved our drayage efficiencies and equipment utilization and look forward to meeting what we expect will be healthy demand in the second half of this year.”

Hub Group reported income of $9.6 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 16% compared to the second quarter of 2009.  Hub Group’s diluted earnings per share was $0.26 for the second quarter of 2010, which represents an increase of 18% when compared with the prior year period.

Each of the three business lines contributed to Hub Group’s overall revenue increase of 26% to $458 million.  Second quarter intermodal revenue increased 26% to $320 million.  The increase was attributable to a 25% volume increase and an 8% increase for fuel, partially offset by a 7% decrease for price and mix.  Truck brokerage revenue increased 21% to $86 million this quarter.  Second quarter Unyson Logistics revenue increased 38% to $52 million.

Hub Group ended the quarter with $128 million in cash.
