On July 23, 2026, a jury in Dallas County, Texas issued an advisory verdict against C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. (the “Company”) and two other defendants in a lawsuit related to a trucking accident involving an independent motor carrier. The verdict awarded compensatory damages of $604 million, which could be assessed against the Company. The advisory verdict remains subject to post-trial proceedings before the court enters a final verdict. The Company disagrees with the jury’s advisory verdict and expects to appeal if the jury’s verdict is entered as final.
