Winston Score History

The full picture

TFI International is a large trucking and logistics company based in Canada. It moves goods for businesses across North America using trucks, and it also handles package delivery and logistics services. The company operates through four main segments: package and courier delivery, less-than-truckload (LTL) freight, truckload freight, and logistics.

TFI makes money by charging customers to transport their goods, earning fees on each shipment or delivery. It operates primarily in Canada and the United States, with some presence in Mexico, and generates roughly $7–8 billion in annual revenue. TFI has built its scale largely through acquisitions, buying smaller trucking companies over time — its 2021 purchase of UPS Freight (now TForce Freight) significantly expanded its U.S. LTL network. The main risk the company faces is that trucking demand is closely tied to the broader economy, meaning a slowdown in consumer spending or industrial activity can quickly reduce freight volumes and pressure profit margins.

Growth + cash flow

TFI International is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 11%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
