Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Covenant Logistics Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), announces that we have changed our segment reporting to be consistent<br> with our organizational structure, our service offerings, the reports reviewed by our chief operating decision maker, and how our executive leadership manages our business, effective July 1, 2020. As a result, our segment reporting will<br> change to reflect the new structure beginning with our results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020. The modified structure will consist of four reportable segments, as follows:
Expedited
o The Expedited segment primarily provides truckload services to customers with high service freight and delivery standards, such as 1,000 miles<br> in 22 hours, or 15-minute delivery windows. Expedited services generally require two-person driver teams on equipment either owned or leased by the Company.
Dedicated
o The Dedicated segment provides customers with committed truckload capacity over contracted periods using equipment either owned or leased by<br> the Company.
Managed Freight
o The Managed Freight segment includes our brokerage and transport management services (“TMS”). Brokerage services provide logistics capacity by<br> outsourcing the carriage of customers’ freight to third parties. TMS provides comprehensive logistics services on a contractual basis to customers who prefer to outsource their logistics needs.
Warehousing
o The Warehousing segment provides day-to-day warehouse management services to customers who have chosen to outsource this function.
The results of our former factoring segment, Transport Financial Solutions, the assets of which were sold on July 8, 2020, will be reflected as<br> discontinued operations.  The segment formerly disclosed as Highway Services will now be known as the Expedited segment, given the change in our business mix surrounding the exit of the majority of the solo-refrigerated business in the<br> second quarter of 2020.  Also, given management changes and growth, we have separated Warehousing as a separate segment from Managed Freight.  We believe the updated presentation better reflects our service offerings, strategic direction,<br> and how management, including our chief operating decision maker, will monitor our performance.<br><br> <br><br><br> <br>Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is certain revised unaudited segment financial and operating data for the quarterly period ended September 30,<br> 2018 through the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020. This unaudited financial and operating data reflects the reportable segments we will use to present our results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 and is being provided to<br> facilitate comparison of such results with information from prior periods. While this unaudited financial and operating data reflects the change in our reportable segments, it does not revise our previously reported financial and<br> operating data, nor does it reflect any subsequent information or events, other than as required to reflect the change in reportable segments.
