Current report

On April 4, 2026, we acquired 100% of the equity interests in Document Crunch for consideration of $246.4 million. We financed the acquisition by borrowing from our credit facilities. Document Crunch is an AI platform advanced in construction-specific AI document analysis and risk management across the project lifecycle. This acquisition aims to strengthen document intelligence and compliance automation across our construction ecosystem and enhance existing workflows in project management and the construction ERP system. Document Crunch is reported as part of our AECO segment. We have included the financial results of Document Crunch in our Consolidated Financial Statements starting in the second quarter of 2026.

Current report

As of July 3, 2026, Trimble was approved for a $17.8 million tariff refund under the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) IEEPA refund program. Of this amount, we received $13.9 million in cash in the second quarter of 2026 and reversed the previously recognized cost of goods sold. Additionally, we plan to issue refunds to certain customers whose historical purchases from Trimble included additional charges due to tariffs. The refunds are accrued as current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and as a reduction of revenue.
