PART I ITEM 1. -- BUSINESS (a) General development of the business. Roadway Corporation (the Company or Roadway), a Delaware corporation, is a holding company that was formed on May 30, 2001 by a reorganization of the corporate structure of Roadway Express, Inc. In connection with the reorganization, Roadway Express, Inc. became a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Roadway Corporation. The Company's headquarters are at 1077 Gorge Boulevard, Akron, Ohio, 44310. Roadway Express, Inc. (REX), a Delaware corporation founded in 1930, is the primary operating subsidiary of the Company. REX and its subsidiaries provide long-haul less-than-truckload (LTL) freight services on major city-to-city routes (lanes) in North America, and on international lanes to and from North America. Based on reported revenue for 2001, REX is one of the largest LTL motor carriers in the United States. On November 30, 2001, Roadway acquired Arnold Industries, Inc. (Arnold) of Lebanon, Pennsylvania (NASDAQ: AIND) for $21.75 per share in cash, an aggregate consideration of approximately $553 million. Arnold's trucking subsidiaries are New Penn Motor Express, a regional next-day LTL carrier, and Arnold Transportation Services (ATS), an irregular route truckload (TL) carrier. New Penn and Arnold Transportation will continue to operate independently under their respective brand names. Arnold was renamed Roadway Next Day Corporation. See Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in Roadway's 2001 Annual Report to Shareholders, which is on pages 15-16 of Exhibit 13 of this filing, for more details regarding this transaction. The Company's results of operations include the results of Arnold only for the month of December 2001. Arnold's results accounted for approximately 1% of the revenue and 2% of the operating income reported by the Company for the year 2001. (b) Segment information. The information in Note 14 of the Consolidated Financial Statements on page 32 of Roadway's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2001 is filed with this Form 10-K as pages 30-31 of Exhibit 13, and is incorporated herein by reference. (c) Description of the business. REX provides transportation of general commodity freight by motor vehicle, in North America and elsewhere. General commodity freight includes apparel, appliances, automotive parts, chemicals, food, furniture, glass, machinery, metal and metal products, non-bulk petroleum products, rubber, textiles, wood, and miscellaneous manufactured products. REX also offers LTL service within Canada and Mexico through its subsidiaries, and also offers service to 66 additional countries worldwide through offshore agents. The Company serves over one-half million customer sites in North America. New Penn offers LTL service primarily in New England and the Middle Atlantic States. ATS offers TL service primarily east of the Mississippi and in the southwest. Roadway is affected directly by the state of the overall economy, with over 90% of the Company's revenue delivered to customers operating in the following economic segments: manufacturing, 26%; wholesale trade, 25%; retail trade, 23%; and transportation and utilities, 17%. Seasonal fluctuations affect tonnage, revenue and operating results. Normally, the fall of each year is the Company's busiest shipping period; the months of December and January of each year are the slowest. Shipment levels, operating costs, and operating results can also be adversely affected by inclement weather. During 2001, no single customer accounted for more than 5% of the Company's total revenues, and the ten largest customers accounted for approximately 19% of the Company's total revenue. The LTL business is extremely competitive, often resulting in narrow margins. REX, New Penn, and ATS operate in different segments of the trucking market and generally do not compete with each other for business. Roadway's primary competitors in the national LTL market are Yellow Transportation, Consolidated Freightways Corp., and ABF Freight System. New Penn competes with a substantial number of regional carriers that operate in the same geographic area, some of which are larger than New Penn. Both companies also compete for LTL freight with other national and international LTL carriers as well as regional LTL motor carriers, truckload carriers, small package carriers, private carriage, freight forwarders, railroads and airlines. ATS competes with other TL carriers in the marketplace as well. Competition for freight is based primarily upon price and service (transit time). To maintain and improve market share, Roadway offers and negotiates various discounts. Roadway works directly with customers on an account-by-account basis to find ways to improve efficiencies and contain costs to improve both customer and carrier profitability. 1 Deregulation of most of the trucking industry, begun in 1980 and largely completed by Congress in 1995, has given rise to intense competition. New entrants, some of which have grown rapidly in regional markets, include some non-union carriers that may have lower labor costs than REX and New Penn. During 2001, the Company's operating subsidiaries averaged 29,000 employees. Approximately 72% of the Company's employees are represented by various labor unions, primarily the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (the Teamsters). The current National Master Freight Agreement with the Teamsters expires on March 31, 2003. The Company believes that its current relations with the Teamsters are satisfactory. None of ATS' 1,200 employees are represented by labor unions. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), which retains limited oversight authority over motor carriers, currently regulates the Company's operations in interstate commerce. Federal legislation preempts regulation by the states of price, routes, and service in intrastate freight transportation. The Company, like other interstate motor carriers, is subject to certain safety requirements governing interstate operations prescribed by the DOT. The Company has earned a "satisfactory" rating (the highest of three grading categories) from the DOT. In addition, vehicle dimensions and driver hours of service remain subject to both Federal and state regulation. More restrictive limitations on vehicle weight and size, trailer length and configuration, or driver hours of service could adversely affect the operating results of the Company. At December 31, 2001, the REX owned a total of 8,555 tractors and 25,175 trailers. The Company also operated 2,130 tractors and 9,349 trailers under long-term leases. The average age of the intercity fleet was six years. New Penn and ATS together operate 2,100 tractors and 5,800 trailers. There is sufficient capacity to meet normal requirements. Short-term leased equipment is used to meet peak demands.

Thirty of the owned facilities are major consolidation/distribution centers that are in strategic locations throughout the continental United States. These 30 facilities contain 5,515 loading spaces, ranging in size from 71 to 426 loading spaces, and average 89,000 square feet, ranging from 31,000 to 220,000 square feet. All significant leased and owned facilities were being utilized at year-end 2001, and are adequate to meet current needs. The Company owns its headquarters offices of approximately 259,000 square feet, situated on 39.7 acres of which 14.7 are owned, and 25 leased under a long-term contract expiring in 2009, but renewable to 2084.

ITEM 7. -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" on pages 15 through 19 of the registrant's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2001 is filed with this Form 10-K as pages 1 through 6 of Exhibit 13, and is incorporated herein by reference. Subsequent event. On March 21, 2002, the Company issued a press release previewing the results for the first quarter of 2002, stating that business volumes and operating income were well below last year's levels. In January, daily tonnage levels at Roadway Express, the Company's largest operating unit, were at their lowest point since 1987. Each entity is expected to show an operating profit for the quarter, but the reduced business levels resulted in higher than anticipated operating ratios. With the inclusion of non-operating expenses, principally for interest related to last quarter's acquisition of Arnold Industries, the Company expects to post a net loss of $.08 to $.12 cents per share for the quarter. While most of the information provided herein is historical, some of the comments made are forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements that are not historical statements of fact are "forward-looking statements" for purposes of these provisions and are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause Roadway Corporation's actual performance to differ from that expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties include variable factors such as capacity and rate levels in the motor freight industry, fuel prices, the state of the national economy, the success of the Corporation's operating plans, and uncertainties concerning the impact recent terrorist activities may have on the economy and the motor freight industry. These forward-looking statements reflect management's analysis of future events only as of the date of this Annual Report. Roadway Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof. In addition to the disclosure contained herein, readers should carefully review risks and uncertainties contained in other documents Roadway Corporation files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 4 ITEM 7A. -- QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company does not hold any market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes. The Company's primary market risks include fluctuations in interest rates, currency exchange rates, and fuel prices. The disclosure regarding interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations is included in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" on Page 19 of the registrant's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2001, is filed with this Form 10-K as page 6 of Exhibit 13, and is incorporated herein by reference. Increasing fuel prices are mitigated with a variable rate fuel surcharge, assessed by the Company when the national average price of diesel fuel exceeds $1.10 per gallon. This surcharge was in effect during 2001, and resulted in an effective rate increase of 2.7%. With the reduction of fuel prices in 2002, the surcharge has ranged from a low of 0.5% on LTL shipments and 1.0% on TL shipments to the current rates of 2.0% on LTL shipments and 4.0% on truckload shipments.
