Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Interim Financial Statements

Ryder System, Inc. (Ryder) is a leading provider of outsourced logistics and transportation services throughout North America. We offer port‑to‑door solutions that include every step of the supply chain, including international inbound flows and cross‑border logistics, fleet and transportation management, warehousing, manufacturing support and multi-channel final delivery. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ryder, all entities in which Ryder has a controlling voting interest (subsidiaries), and variable interest entities (VIE) where Ryder is determined to be the primary beneficiary in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Ryder is deemed to be the primary beneficiary if we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and we share in the significant risks and rewards of the entity.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included and the disclosures herein are adequate. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for a full year. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

We report our financial performance based onthree business segments: (1) Fleet Management Solutions (FMS), which provides full service leasing, commercial rental and vehicle maintenance services; (2) Supply Chain Solutions (SCS), which provides fully integrated logistics solutions; and (3) Dedicated Transportation Solutions (DTS), which provides turnkey transportation solutions, including dedicated vehicles, professional drivers, management and administrative support. Dedicated transportation services provided as part of an operationally integrated, multi-service supply chain solution to SCS customers are primarily reported in the SCS business segment.

  1. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The amendments provide for more detailed disaggregation of expenses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning in 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the disclosure impact of the adoption of this update. This ASU does not impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

  1. SEGMENT REPORTING

Our primary measurement of segment financial performance, defined as segment "Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes" (EBT), includes an allocation of costs from Central Support Services (CSS) and excludes Non-operating pension costs, net, Intangible amortization expense, and certain other items. The objective of the EBT measurement is to provide clarity on the profitability of each business segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each business segment accountable for their allocated share of CSS costs. Certain costs are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in CSS, including costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation. Segment results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

The following table sets forth financial information for each of our segments and provides a reconciliation between segment EBT and Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes (in millions):

Residual Value Estimate Changes

We periodically review and adjust, as appropriate, the estimated residual values of existing revenue earning equipment for the purposes of recording depreciation expense. Reductions in estimated residual values will increase depreciation expense over the remaining useful life of the vehicle. Conversely, an increase in estimated residual values will decrease depreciation expense over the remaining useful life of the vehicle. Our review of the estimated residual values of revenue earning equipment is based on vehicle class (i.e., generally subcategories of trucks, tractors and trailers by weight and usage), historical and current market prices, third-party expected future market prices, expected lives of vehicles, and expected sales in the wholesale or retail markets, among other factors. A variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, could cause residual value estimates to differ from actual used vehicle sales pricing, such as changes in supply and demand of used vehicles; volatility in market conditions; changes in vehicle technology; competitor pricing; regulatory requirements; wholesale market prices; customer requirements and preferences; and changes in underlying assumption factors. We have disciplines related to the management and maintenance of our vehicles designed to manage the risk associated with the residual values of our revenue earning equipment. Effective January 1, 2026, we reduced the estimated residual values for certain tractors. These updates did not have a material impact to depreciation expense.

Used Vehicle Sales and Valuation Adjustments

Revenue earning equipment held for sale is stated at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Losses on vehicles held for sale for which carrying values exceeded fair value, which we refer to as "valuation adjustments," are recognized at the time they are deemed to meet the held-for-sale criteria and are presented within "Used vehicle sales, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. For revenue earning equipment held for sale, we stratify our fleet by vehicle type (trucks, tractors and trailers), weight class, age and other relevant characteristics and create classes of similar assets for analysis purposes. For revenue earning equipment held for sale, fair value was determined based upon recent market prices obtained from our own sales experience for each class of similar assets and vehicle condition, if available, or third-party market pricing. In addition, we also consider expected declines in market prices, as well as forecasted sales channel mix (retail/wholesale) when valuing the vehicles held for sale.

The following table presents our assets held for sale that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and considered a Level 3 fair value measurement:

Losses from Valuation Adjustments

Total assets at fair value$54$60$5$13

The table above reflects only the revenue earning equipment held for sale where net book values exceeded fair values and valuation adjustments were recorded. The net book value of assets held for sale that were less than fair value was $122 million and $116 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

  1. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

We currently maintaintwo share repurchase programs approved by our board of directors. The first program authorizes management to repurchase up to 1.5 million shares of common stock issued to employees under our employee stock plans since August 31, 2025, under an anti-dilutive program (the "2025 Anti-Dilutive Program"). The second program grants management discretion to repurchase up to 2 million shares of common stock over a period oftwo years under a new discretionary share repurchase program (the "October 2025 Discretionary Program"). Share repurchases under both programs can be made from time to time using our working capital and other borrowing sources. Shares are repurchased under open-market transactions and trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors, including balance sheet leverage, availability of acquisitions and stock price.

The anti-dilutive share repurchase programs are designed to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under our employee stock plans. The discretionary share repurchase programs are designed to provide management with capital structure flexibility while concurrently managing objectives related to balance sheet leverage, acquisition opportunities, and shareholder returns. Shares of common stock are retired upon repurchase.

The following table provides the activity for shares repurchased and retired:

  1. CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS

We are a party to various claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our continuing business operations, including those relating to commercial and employment claims, environmental matters, risk management matters (e.g., vehicle liability, workers' compensation, etc.) and administrative assessments primarily associated with operating taxes. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. We believe that the resolution of these claims, complaints and legal proceedings will not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our estimates regarding potential losses and materiality are based on our judgment and assessment of the claims utilizing currently available information. Although we will continue to reassess our estimated liability based on future developments, our objective assessment of the legal merits of such claims may not always be predictive of the outcome and actual results may vary from our current estimates.
