Current report

We remain focused on executing our strategic priorities by investing to expand our presence in resilient and profitable end markets. As part of our ongoing portfolio evaluation to reduce business cyclicality, we completed the divestiture of our tower and rough terrain cranes businesses. We continue to deploy the Terex Operating System (“TOS”) to further enhance the efficiency of our operational footprint, reduce fixed costs, and drive sustained improvements in operational execution. In addition, we completed the integration of ESG and are ahead of our commitment to deliver $25 million of synergies.

Current report

Overall, 2025 financial performance demonstrated continued focus on our customers and our operational performance while navigating through a very dynamic environment, including tariffs. Net sales grew by 5.7% to $5.4 billion as the full year contribution from the ESG acquisition more than offset declines in Aerials and MP driven by channel adjustment. ESG continued to execute very well from higher throughput and profitability. We achieved operating profit of $475 million and free cash flow of $325 million, which translates to 147% of free cash flow conversion. Working capital reductions remain a key priority of our capital allocation strategy to deliver value to shareholders while investing for longer-term organic growth.

Current report

Our ES segment sales increased 12.7% year over year on a proforma basis to $1.7 billion driven by improved throughput and delivery of refuse collection vehicles and utilities trucks. ES delivered strong operating margins of 13.8%, driven by improved operational execution, positive customer and product mix and synergies.

Current report

MP executed well in 2025 despite a challenging macro environment. Full year sales of $1.7 billion were 11.6% lower than 2024 due to macro uncertainty, high interest rates which remain a headwind for rent to own conversions and weak European demand. On the aggregates side, we saw machines on rent longer than usual, impacting dealers' replenishment of new units. Despite the headwinds, MP delivered an operating margin of 13.9% from tight cost control and gain on the sale of its tower and rough terrain cranes businesses. MP ended 2025 with $71 million more backlog than the prior year providing positive momentum heading into 2026.

Current report

Aerials 2025 sales declined by 14.5% year over year driven by less demand from independent rental customers who are more exposed to smaller interest rate sensitive projects. We are encouraged to see year over year 7% growth in the fourth quarter driven by replacement demand from mega projects. Aerials full year operating profit of 5.0% is 620 basis point lower than prior year driven by deliberate production cuts in Q1, unfavorable customer mix and tariffs.

Current report

We continued to execute our capital allocation strategy in 2025 by driving more operational cash through tighter net working capital management and redeploying it to repurchase our shares opportunistically. Our net working capital as a percentage of trailing three- month annualized sales improved from 24.0% in December 2024 to 20.8% in December 2025. We continue to invest in our businesses with $118 million deployed for capital expenditures to support business growth. We also returned $98 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends in 2025. We ended the year with $1.6 billion of liquidity with no near-term debt maturities, repriced our term loan lowering interest rate by 25 basis points and maintained our corporate ratings.

Current report

Our key end markets remain resilient with reliable replacement and aftermarket demand, strengthened by the opportunity to differentiate through quality, technology and life-cycle support. Waste & recycling market is expected to be fueled by population and economic growth, disciplined fleet replacement vehicle innovation that lowers operating costs, and digital solutions. We anticipate Utilities market growth to be sustained by increasing demand for the U.S. electrical grid with majority of data center related growth still to come. Within Infrastructure, we believe there is plenty of runway with previously allocated government spending, with a need for more investments ahead.

Current report

We completed the REV Transaction on February 2, 2026 and our 2026 outlook includes REV for the period following the closing of the transaction. We expect 2026 sales of between $7.5 billion and $8.1 billion, EBITDA between $930 million to $1 billion and earnings per share between $4.50 to $5.00 based on the higher share count resulting from the completion of the transaction. We are operating in a complex environment with many macroeconomic variables and geo-political uncertainties and results could change negatively or positively. The outlook we are providing does not account for any potential future acquisitions or divestitures that have not been previously disclosed.

Current report

(1)The amount represents tax benefit arising from foreign tax legislative changes, in addition to tax planning associated with restructuring activity.

Current report

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased $17 million when compared to 2024, primarily due to the impact of Aerials and MP’s lower sales volume and unfavorable absorption due to production adjustments as well as tariffs within Aerials, partially offset by strong ES performance and a favorable discrete item of approximately $18 million pertaining to the release of a customs-related contingency in Aerials.

Current report

SG&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $34 million when compared to 2024, primarily due to additional compensation costs related to the recently acquired ESG business, a one-time litigation related charge and higher restructuring and integration costs, partially offset by gain on the sale of the tower and rough terrain cranes businesses within MP and cost reductions within Aerials and MP.

Current report

Operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $51 million when compared to 2024, primarily due to the impact of Aerials’ lower sales volume, production adjustments and unfavorable tariffs, partially offset by strong ES performance, gain on the sale of the tower and rough terrain cranes businesses within MP, an Aerials discrete item and cost reduction actions within Aerials and MP.

Current report

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $869 million when compared to 2024 primarily due to sales generated by the acquired ESG business and growth driven by strong throughput and delivery of refuse collection vehicles and utilities trucks. See Note D - “Acquisitions and Divestitures” in our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the acquisition of ESG.

Current report

Operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $152 million when compared to 2024 primarily due to operating profit generated by the acquired ESG business and continued margin improvements in both ESG and Terex Utilities. See Note D - “Acquisitions and Divestitures” in our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the acquisition of ESG.

Current report

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $221 million when compared to 2024, primarily due to lower channel requirements and end-market demand across most product lines and geographies.

Previous report

We remain focused on executing our multi-year growth plan and continue to invest in new technologies and products across our businesses. Our strategic operational priorities of execution, innovation and growth continue to strengthen our operations and allow us to capitalize on the demand in our end-markets. The recently completed acquisition of ESG strengthens our portfolio. ESG adds a non-cyclical, financially accretive, and market-leading business to our portfolio with tangible synergies in the fast-growing waste and recycling end market. The implementation of the Terex Operating System (“TOS”) is an important part of our execution improvement journey. We are evaluating our global footprint, focusing on opportunities to reduce fixed costs while improving operating performance. When it comes to innovation, we have a very exciting new product development pipeline focused on maximizing return on investment for our customers. We also continue to invest in robotics, automation, and digitizing workstreams to make our operations more efficient and more flexible. This represents an important part of our roadmap to continuously become more competitive and more resilient regardless of market dynamics.

Previous report

Overall, 2024 financial performance demonstrated continued, strong execution and focus on delivering for our customers and dealers despite continued macroeconomic volatility resulting in the second highest full-year earnings per share performance in our history. Our MP and aerials businesses adapted quickly to channel adjustments in the second half of the year, reducing costs and stepping down production levels to align with demand. ESG executed very well in the fourth quarter, their first quarter as a part of Terex.

Previous report

We saw more challenging macro dynamics as the trajectory of future interest rate cuts and the U.S. election cast a shadow of uncertainty leading to more cautious decision-making as 2024 progressed. Although U.S. construction continues to grow, the rate of growth has slowed, and we are seeing local projects being deferred until investors have more clarity on the macro environment. Another important factor, particularly in aerials, is that lead times for new equipment have come down, largely back to pre-pandemic levels. This allows our rental customers to align their equipment delivery schedules more precisely with their requirements. In MP, we continue to see dealers re-balance inventory levels as more of their customers are renting their machines longer. When the machine is on rent it remains on the dealer’s balance sheet and limits their ability to order new machines. Our backlog of $2.3 billion is consistent with historical norms and lower lead times. Bookings also reflect a return to more normal seasonality.

Previous report

MP executed well in 2024 despite a challenging macro environment. MP sales declined in 2024 by 15% to $1.9 billion compared to 2023, driven by channel adjustments and challenging macroeconomic factors in Europe, especially in the second half of 2024. On the Aggregates side, we saw machines on rent longer than usual, impacting dealers’ replenishment of new units. In addition, the European market was weak throughout 2024 which initially impacted Material Handling, Cranes and eventually Aggregates. MP delivered an operating margin of 13.2% for the year, down 290 basis points as compared to the prior year, which was driven by lower sales volume and unfavorable geographic and product mix. MP is continuing to take actions to reduce cost, including factory and other layoffs, reduced work schedules and other cost reduction initiatives.

Previous report

AWP’s 2024 sales were up 3% compared to the prior year, with similar growth rates in Aerials and Terex Utilities. Growth in the first three quarters more than offset the declines we saw in the fourth quarter when deliveries to rental customers were lower than the prior year. We were encouraged to see market share gains resulting from new products and other customer-focused improvements made by the team. AWP delivered operating margins of 11.4% for 2024, down 130 basis points compared to the prior year, driven by second half channel adjustments, production cuts and unfavorable mix.

Previous report

We continued to execute our capital allocation strategy in 2024 as we funded the ESG acquisition at favorable rates and terms and maintained our corporate ratings, made strategic investments in our businesses and we returned capital to shareholders. We continued to invest in our businesses with $137 million deployed for capital expenditures in the 2024 to support business growth. We generated $190 million of free cash flow in 2024. We also returned $92 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends in 2024. We continued to maintain ample liquidity and as of December 31, 2024, we had $1,188 million in available liquidity, with no near-term debt maturities. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for a detailed description of liquidity and working capital levels, including the primary factors affecting such levels, as well as a reconciliation of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities to free cash flow.

Previous report

In connection with the ESG acquisition, we up-sized and extended our revolver and obtained $2 billion of proceeds from long-term financing. See Note J – “Long-Term Obligations” for a detailed description of our financing terms.

Previous report

Looking at our global markets for 2025, we continue to see strength in Waste and Recycling, Utilities and Infrastructure, while the General Construction and Industrial and Commercial sectors are generally stable with upside potential.

Previous report

We are encouraged by the improved sentiment that followed the U.S. election in November. The new administration’s focus on easing the regulatory environment for new projects and encouraging growth and investment in the U.S. are stimulants for many of our end markets. With over two-thirds of our revenue coming from North America, a strong U.S. economy is an important overall tailwind for us.

Previous report

We are closely following the administration’s approach to international trade policy. The majority of the products we sell in the United States, we make in the United States which limits our exposure. Moreover, we initiated mitigation actions last year in anticipation of additional tariffs, leveraging our global capabilities to manage the impact. As a global company with a significant footprint in the United States and around the world, we have optionally and are ready to take additional actions if needed. See Part I, Item 1A. – “Risk Factors” for a detailed description of the risks resulting from the imposition of new or increased international tariffs. Another important macro headwind is the elevated level of interest rates and uncertainty around the Fed’s outlook. We continue to see strong public sector spending on infrastructure, manufacturing and utilities, but rate-sensitive private projects continue to be impacted by the higher rates.

Previous report

Turning to Europe, we continue to see a generally weak economic environment. We remain encouraged by increasing adoption of our products in emerging markets such as India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.

Previous report

We expect the channel dynamics that impacted our Aerials and MP businesses in the back half of 2024 to carry into the first half of 2025. We also expect ESG and Terex Utilities to carry strong momentum into 2025 and continue to grow. We expect overall growth in 2025 as a result of the full-year contribution of ESG, anticipating net sales of [$5.3] to [$5.5] billion. We expect 2025 earnings per share of between [$4.70] and [$5.10] on lower legacy operating profit, partially offset by ESG accretion. It is important to realize we are operating in a challenging macroeconomic environment with many variables and geopolitical uncertainties, so results could change, negatively or positively. Our outlook excludes the potential impact of recently announced tariffs.

Previous report

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased $29 million when compared to 2023 primarily due to unfavorable product mix, and unfavorable absorption from reduced production in the second half of the year, partially offset by incremental profit achieved on higher sales volume and reduced SG&A expenses.

Previous report

Net sales and Income from operations represent the results of operations from acquisition date of October 8, 2024 through December 31, 2024 related to the newly acquired ESG business. See Note D - “Acquisitions and Dispositions” in our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding this transaction.

Previous report

Gain (Loss) on Disposition of Discontinued Operations– Net of Tax

Previous report

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized a gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations - net of tax of $1 million. The gain in 2023 primarily relates to post-closing adjustments related to the sales of our former MHPS and mobile cranes businesses.

Previous report

On December 15, 2022, the European Union (“EU”) Member States formally adopted the EU’s Pillar Two Directive, which generally provides for a minimum effective tax rate of 15% for large corporations, as established by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two Framework. A number of countries in which we operate have adopted legislation, many of which are effective in 2024 subject to the OECD transitional safe harbor rules, while other countries are still in the process of introducing legislation. In addition, the OECD continues to issue guidance on this matter including the technical documents released on January 15, 2025. Among this release, the OECD issued Administrative Guidance on the application of the Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) Model Rules. While we determined the impact of enacted Pillar Two legislation on our financial statements is not material, we will continue to evaluate the financial statement impacts as additional Pillar Two rules are enacted and OECD guidance is issued, including the documents recently released.

Previous report

On October 8, 2024, we acquired ESG for cash consideration of $2,010 million. See Note D - “Acquisitions and Dispositions” in our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding this transaction. The Company financed the purchase price and related fees and expenses using the net proceeds from senior notes, new term loan borrowings and cash on hand. See Note J – “Long-Term Obligations” for additional details on financing transactions.

Previous wording

We discuss forward-looking information related to expected earnings per share (“EPS”) excluding the impact of potential future acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring and other unusual items. Our 2025 outlook for EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes unusual items. The Company is not able to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the exact timing and impact of such items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s full year 2025 GAAP financial results. This forward-looking information provides guidance to investors about our EPS expectations excluding these unusual items that we do not believe are reflective of our ongoing operations.

Current wording

We discuss forward-looking information related to expected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and earnings per share (“EPS”) excluding the impact of potential future acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring, tariffs, trade policies and other unusual items.

Previous wording

Working capital is calculated using the Consolidated Balance Sheet amounts for Receivables (net of allowance) plus Inventories, less Trade accounts payable and Customer advances. We view excessive working capital as an inefficient use of resources, and seek to minimize the level of investment without adversely impacting ongoing operations of the business. Trailing three months annualized net sales is calculated using net sales for the most recent quarter end multiplied by four. The ratio calculated by dividing working capital by trailing three months annualized net sales is a non-GAAP measure we believe measures our resource use efficiency.

Safety is a top priority, not only for our team members, but also our customers. All Terex team members contribute to our effort of continuing to provide products and services for our customers, while maintaining a safe working environment.

Current wording

Safety remains a top priority for Terex, not only for our team members but also our customers. In 2025, our teams delivered our strongest safety performance to date while maintaining reliable delivery of equipment and services.

Previous wording

In 2024, our largest market remained North America, which represented approximately 66% of our global sales. As compared to the prior year, sales were up in North America and down in all other major geographies.

Current wording

In 2025, our largest market remained North America, which represented approximately 72% of our global sales. As compared to the prior year, sales were up in North America driven by the ESG acquisition and down in all other major geographies.

Previous wording

ROIC and other Non-GAAP Measures (as calculated below) assist in showing how effectively we utilize capital invested in our operations. ROIC is determined by dividing the sum of NOPAT for each of the previous four quarters by the average of Debt less Cash and cash equivalents plus Stockholders’ equity for the previous five quarters. NOPAT for each quarter is calculated by multiplying Income (loss) from operations by one minus the full year 2024 effective tax rate as adjusted. Debt is calculated using amounts for Current portion of long-term debt plus Long-term debt, less current portion. We calculate ROIC using the last four quarters’ NOPAT as this represents the most recent 12-month period at any given point of determination. In order for the denominator of the ROIC ratio to properly match the operational period reflected in the numerator, we include the average of five quarters’ ending balance sheet amounts so that the denominator includes the average of the opening through ending balances (on a quarterly basis) thereby providing, over the same time period as the numerator, four quarters of average invested capital.

Previous wording

In the calculation of ROIC, we adjust income (loss) from operations, effective tax rate, and stockholders’ equity to remove the effects of the impact of certain transactions in order to create a measure that is more useful to understanding our operating results and the ongoing performance of our underlying business excluding the impact of unusual items as shown in the tables below. Our management and Board use ROIC as one measure to assess operational performance, which is also included in certain compensation programs. We use ROIC as a metric because we believe it measures how effectively we invest our capital and provides a better measure to compare ourselves to peer companies to assist in assessing how we drive operational improvement. We believe ROIC measures return on the amount of capital invested in our businesses and is an accurate and descriptive measure of our performance. We also believe adding Debt less Cash and cash equivalents to Stockholders’ equity provides a better comparison across similar businesses regarding total capitalization, and ROIC highlights the level of value creation as a percentage of capital invested. As the tables below show, our ROIC at December 31, 2024 was 19.4%.

Previous wording

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased $25 million when compared to 2023 primarily due to lower end-market demand across certain product lines and geographies within MP, partially offset by sales generated from the newly acquired ESG business and increased demand for booms and telehandlers in North America.

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $294 million when compared to 2024, primarily due to sales generated from the recently acquired ESG business, partially offset by lower end-market demand across most product lines and geographies within Aerials and MP.

Previous wording

Loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased $13 million when compared to 2023. The decrease in operating loss is primarily due to lower compensation cost and the favorable changes in foreign exchange performance, partially offset by higher severance costs.

Current wording

Loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $17 million when compared to 2024. The increase in operating loss is primarily due to changes in intercompany eliminations and lower sales for government programs.

Previous wording

During the year ended December 31, 2024, interest expense, net of interest income, was $76 million or $20 million higher when compared to 2023 primarily due to the issuance of additional debt to finance the ESG acquisition, partially offset by reduced borrowing from the revolving line of credit and higher interest income in the current year.

Current wording

During the year ended December 31, 2025, interest expense, net of interest income, was $165 million or $89 million higher when compared to 2024, primarily due to the issuance of additional debt in the fourth quarter of 2024 to finance the ESG acquisition.

Previous wording

Other income (expense) – net for the year ended December 31, 2024 was an expense of $42 million, compared to $1 million in 2023. The increase in expense was primarily due to transaction costs related to ESG acquisition and higher mark-to-market losses recorded on an equity investment in 2024 compared to gains recorded in 2023, partially offset by favorable impact of changes in foreign exchange rates and lower non-service cost portion of pension expense in 2024.

Current wording

Other income (expense) – net for the year ended December 31, 2025 was an expense of $18 million, compared to $42 million in 2024. The decrease in expense was primarily due to net gains recorded on equity securities and lower deal related costs in 2025.

Previous wording

During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized income tax expense of $73 million on income of $408 million, an effective tax rate of 17.8%, as compared to income tax expense of $63 million on income of $580 million, an effective tax rate of 10.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2023. The higher effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to one-time tax benefit in 2023 derived from recording of a deferred tax asset in relation to our Swiss operations.

Current wording

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recognized income tax expense of $71 million on income of $292 million, an effective tax rate of 24.3%, as compared to income tax expense of $73 million on income of $408 million, an effective tax rate of 17.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2024. The higher effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to an increase in unfavorable discrete items of which the most significant relates to change in German tax legislation.

Previous wording

If the qualitative assessment indicates a quantitative analysis should be performed or a quantitative analysis is directly elected, we evaluate goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of each of our reporting units to its carrying value, including the associated goodwill. To determine the fair values, we use an income approach, along with other relevant market information, derived from a discounted cash flow model to estimate fair value of our reporting units. An impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if any, would be recognized. The loss recognized would not exceed total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In connection with the annual impairment test conducted as of October 1, 2024, we bypassed the qualitative assessment and proceeded directly to the quantitative impairment test. The quantitative assessment indicated that each reporting unit had an estimated fair value which substantially exceeded its respective carrying amount at the annual impairment test date.

Current wording

If the qualitative assessment indicates a quantitative analysis should be performed or a quantitative analysis is directly elected, we evaluate goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of each of our reporting units to its carrying value, including the associated goodwill. We use a combination of the income approach (discounted cash flows) and market approach (market multiples) in estimating the fair value of our reporting units. When preparing discounted cash flow models under the income approach, we estimate future cash flows using the reporting unit’s internal multi-year forecast, and a terminal value calculated using a growth rate that we believe is appropriate in light of current and expected future economic conditions. To discount these cash flows, we use our expected weighted average cost of capital, determined using a capital asset pricing model. When using the market method under the market approach, we apply comparable publicly traded companies’ multiples (e.g., earnings, revenues) to our reporting units’ operating results. An impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if any, would be recognized. The loss recognized would not exceed total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In connection with the annual impairment test conducted as of October 1, 2025, we bypassed the qualitative assessment and proceeded directly to the quantitative impairment test. The quantitative assessment indicated that each reporting unit had an estimated fair value which exceeded its respective carrying amount at the annual impairment test date.
