  Saia LTL Freight has shown great resilience as a company with limited offerings, choosing to only offer direct freight services within the continuous Untied States. This company has enjoyed steady growth in revenue, profits, and net income over the last five years. However, Saia has never been able to push any great company expansions or increased service offerings. This is due in large part to their unstable cash flow and working capital. With the current state of the US and global supply chain due to the Covid-19 pandemic, trucking freight companies are being offered an opportunity for expansion and growth of their market share. If Saia can stabilize their cash flow to allow for a bold expansion they have the potential to be a top tier trucking company.
