WARREN, Mich., July 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Universal Logistics Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: ULH) today reported consolidated second quarter 2022 net income of $44.7 million, or $1.69 per basic and diluted share, on total operating revenues of $527.2 million. This compares to net income of $25.6 million, or $0.95 per basic and diluted share, during second quarter 2021 on total operating revenues of $422.8 million. Universal's second quarter 2022 financial results represent new all-time highs for total operating revenues, operating income and earnings per share, exceeding the record results reported in the first quarter 2022
In the second quarter 2022, Universal's operating income increased $33.3 million to $64.7 million compared to operating income of $31.3 million in the second quarter one year earlier. Included in second quarter 2022 operating results was a $3.0 million credit to insurance and claims expense resulting from the favorable settlement of certain auto liability claims during the period. During the second quarter 2022, Universal also revised the estimated useful life and salvage value of certain equipment, and these adjustments resulted in additional depreciation expense of $9.7 million during the period. As a percentage of operating revenue, operating margin for the second quarter 2022 was 12.3% compared to 7.4% during the same period last year. EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased $37.2 million during the second quarter 2022 to $90.9 million, compared to $53.7 million one year earlier. As a percentage of operating revenue, EBITDA margin for the second quarter 2022 was 17.2% compared to 12.7% during the same period last year.
"Universal's second quarter 2022 set another series of record results, surpassing the all-time record highs achieved just a quarter ago," stated Tim Phillips, Universal's Chief Executive Officer. "We are solidly on-track to achieve over $2.0 billion in top-line revenues for the year, and we have once again reported our best-ever financial performance in terms of operating revenues, operating income, operating margin, and earnings per share. In fact, Universal has already reported more earnings per share in the first two quarters of 2022, than in any previous annual period in the Company's history.
While I am enthusiastic about our performance, I am also keenly aware of the macro headwinds facing Universal, and the broader economic conditions. We are keeping a close eye on the impacts of inflation, rising interest rates, and the direction of consumer behavior. And while there are some signs of a softening, I believe there remains a significant amount of freight opportunities across the country, and strong, pent-up demand for autos in North America, both of which are favorable to our bottom line. In this ever-changing business climate, I continue to believe Universal's highly-resilient business model will allow us to remain agile and deliver solid performance for our customers and our shareholders."
