If not typical, common. Current ratio= current assets/current lia. Some typical numbers (most recent q) from Yahoo: Boyd: 1.07 TFH: 1.17 Yellow: .81 Arkansas Best: .86 CFWY: 1.19 Roadway: 1.10 JB Hunt: 1.09 Swift: 1.76 XPRSA: 3.41 Motor Cargo: 2.33 Werner 1.56 Aside: FWIW, as pointed out by me in an earlier post, TFH is selling below net current assets (but is not at the 2/3 net-net price for a Ben Graham purchase). Current Assets - Current Liabilities - LTD = 38.4-32.8-0.0=$5.6M. Divided by 3.25M sh. out. = $1.72/sh. vs. stock quote about 1 1/2. A price point, sad-to-say, where I've added to my losing position.
