Overhaul hauls in $105 million of Series C funding

Overhaul, a trailblazer in in-transit supply chain risk management, recently secured a substantial $105 million in Series C equity funding. This funding round was led by Springcoast Partners, with major involvement from Edison Partners. Alongside the equity funding, Overhaul has closed a new debt facility with MidCap Financial. The capital infusion is aimed at accelerating the company's platform innovation, enhancing its AI-driven capabilities, and further developing comprehensive enterprise-level solutions for global brands while also pursuing strategic acquisitions. This financial boost comes at a pivotal time as global supply chains face heightened complexity and frequent disruptions. Overhaul's platform is uniquely positioned to tackle these challenges by providing real-time monitoring, predictive intelligence, and rapid response solutions. This approach is crucial in safeguarding high-value cargo against theft, damage, and delays, ensuring that products reach their final destinations securely and efficiently. Barry Conlon, CEO of Overhaul, said in a news release, 'The truth is, visibility is a data stream – not a standalone solution or app – and how we harness that stream is what truly sets us apart. Our engineering and development efforts are focused on solving real-world problems, and this investment helps us accelerate that mission.' The strategic direction for Overhaul includes leveraging its recent acquisition of FreightVerify, which adds item-level tracking and inventory intelligence to its offerings. This move is part of an overarching strategy to consolidate and optimize supply chain performance. 'Overhaul is building the system of record for global, high-value supply chains. The company's proprietary data assets, operational depth, and commitment to solving real-world logistics challenges set it apart in a consolidating market,' said Holger Staude, Managing Partner of Springcoast Partners. Cargo theft has taken over the supply chain world. In the Second Quarter of 2025, Overhaul reported a total of 525 cargo theft incidents in the U.S., a 4% increase compared to Q1 of 2025 and a 33% increase year over year. According to the American Trucking Association, 'The total annual cost to the US economy is estimated to be $35 billion, with an average loss per incident exceeding $200,000.' Overhaul's robust platform, which boasts a 99.9% shipment protection rate, plays a vital role in combating this omnipresent issue. By maintaining a close partnership with law enforcement agencies, Overhaul is not just focusing on prevention but also ensuring immediate recovery and intervention when theft does occur. This dual approach of preventing disruptions and addressing losses highlights the company's commitment to transforming how high-value shipments are managed globally. The investment highlights the critical need for advanced supply chain solutions that bridge gaps in visibility and security. With strong backing from investors and an increasing roster of high-profile clients, Overhaul is poised to redefine the standards of cargo security and supply chain management in the years to come. Overhaul previously raised $55 million in funding in January, also led by Springcoast Partners, with follow-on participation from existing investors Edison Partners and Americo. The funding was to enhance Overhaul's AI technology, while providing capital for acquisitions The post Overhaul hauls in $105 million of Series C funding appeared first on FreightWaves.

Electric school buses hit pothole after major supplier goes bankrupt

Even Republicans have tolerated one Biden-era climate program: a $5 billion effort to buy electric school buses and give kids' lungs a break from diesel pollution. But now a major bus supplier has collapsed — leaving school districts with technology that's hard to fix. Lion, an electric truck- and bus-maker based in Quebec, is in bankruptcy after selling roughly 3,400 buses in the United States. Last month, its new investors notified alarmed school districts that they would not honor warranties. Advertisement 'They ran properly for approximately two weeks, then we started getting error messages,' said Andrew Dolloff, the superintendent of schools in Yarmouth, Maine, about the district's two Lion buses.

New Report Says American Consumers Are Ready To Embrace Chinese EVs

A new report by a group that advises U.S. auto dealer groups suggests American consumers are open to buying cheaper electric vehicles from Chinese automakers. The semi-annual report from Dave Cantin Group says American consumers and dealers expect Chinese companies will made advances into the U.S. market – because such vehicles are more affordable. The report, published in a partnership between DCG with Kaiser Associates, was posted publicly on Wednesday. 'Affordability is the dominant theme at the midpoint of 2025, and it has implications across nearly every other issue facing the automotive industry,' DCG President Brian Gordan said in a statement. 'Affordability is reshaping purchase decisions, driving interest in cheaper Chinese vehicles, and making any manufacturing to pass on tariff costs to consumers virtually impossible without the risk of losing market share.' The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is in the midst of a trade war with China. Already, there are tariffs that make it difficulty to import Chinese vehicles. Regardless, the Chinese auto industry is expanding globally. The Trump administration has unleased tariffs across various countries. Tariffs are not a transfer of funds from one country from another. Instead, tariffs are levied against importers of goods. Those costs are often passed on to U.S. consumers. Despite tariffs, the Chinese auto industry represents a competitive threat to U.S. automakers. In June, Terry J. Woychowski, president, automotive of Caresoft Global, a Michigan-based engineering services company, said Chinese auto advances presented an 'existential threat' to established automakers. Chinese automakers can develop new models in 14 to 18 months compared with 36 to 48 months for traditional automakers, Woychowski said in June. Such traditional auto companies are 'three to five years behind from a technology standpoint,' he said. China automakers can produce EVs for about $30,000 each. The DCG report says 40% of American consumers 'say they would consider a Chinese-made vehicle and 75% of dealers expect Chinese brands within in the market with a year.' Traditional automakers are taking notice of the auto threat from China. Earlier this month, Ford Motor Co. said it plans to invest around $5 billion to reset its EV program with more affordable vehicles produced more efficiently, at lower cost, The DCG report also makes the following points: --Consumers 'are staying in their favorite segments but within budget – opting for smaller versions of trucks, SUVs and crossovers or lower trims to stay within budget,' according to the report. --Automakers absorbed financial hits from tariffs during this year's second quarter. Meanwhile, auto dealers 'whose profits are less dependent on new-vehicle markets, are leveraging strong parts and service revenue, finance and insurance products' plus used-vehicle sales to increase profit margins. DCG said the report 'draws on proprietary consumer and dealer survey data' and other information.
