Neutral Impact 3 of 5 leadership Written later

ArcBest expanded its board to eleven members by electing Chris T. Sultemeier, a former Walmart logistics executive, effective October 29, 2025. The board also named Eduardo F. Conrado Lead Independent Director and disclosed that director Craig E. Philip will retire after the January 27, 2026 board meeting. The filing reports no financial results, so the changes concern board composition and governance rather than company performance.

  • Dr. Craig E. Philip, a director since 2011, to retire effective after the January 27, 2026 Board meeting
