SCS and DTS delivered solid pre-tax earnings in their high-single-digit target ranges. “During the quarter, we continued to see improving freight market trends. Contractual sales activity remained strong across all three business segments reflecting customer confidence. In used vehicle sales, results outperformed our expectations as market conditions continued to strengthen. Rental utilization returned to normalized levels driven by our planned asset management actions. “Our transformed business model has demonstrated its strength and resiliency over the current cycle and provides us with a solid foundation to meaningfully benefit from the cycle upturn.” Second Quarter 2026 Segment Review Fleet Management Solutions: Earnings Growth Driven by Contractual Business Performance and Used Vehicle Sales (In millions) 2Q26 2Q25 Change Total Revenue $ 1,560 1,467 6% Operating Revenue (1) $ 1,303 1,288 1% Earnings Before Tax (EBT) $ 150 126 20% EBT as a % of total revenue 9.6% 8.6% 100 bps EBT as a % of operating revenue (1) 11.5% 9.7% 180 bps (1) Non-GAAP financial measure excluding fuel services revenue.

Capital Expenditures, Cash Flow, and Leverage Capital expenditures decreased to $832 million in 2026 compared to $1.2 billion in 2025, primarily reflecting the timing of ChoiceLease fleet replacement and reduced investments in the rental fleet. Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $1.3 billion, compared to $1.4 billion in 2025, primarily reflecting higher working capital needs from revenue growth and the timing of vendor payments. Free cash flow (non-GAAP) of $684 million, compared to $461 million in 2025, primarily reflecting reduced cash capital expenditures. Debt-to-equity as of June 30, 2026 was 259%, up from 250% as of December 31, 2025, and is in the company's long-term target of 250% to 300%. Outlook “Execution on our strategic initiatives remains the key driver of expected earnings growth in 2026,” says Ryder Chief Financial Officer Cristina Gallo-Aquino. “Our high-quality contractual portfolio continues to generate strong returns and higher operating cash flow, enabling us to support profitable growth while also returning capital to shareholders. Since 2021, we have repurchased 26% of shares outstanding and increased our quarterly dividend by 74%. The recent increase in our quarterly dividend marked the fourth consecutive year with a double-digit raise, reflecting our commitment to shareholders as well as our confidence in Ryder’s long-term outlook.” Full Year 2026 Outlook Total Revenue Growth 3% Operating Revenue Growth (non-GAAP) 3% FY26 GAAP EPS $13.50 - $13.90 FY26 Comparable EPS (non-GAAP) $14.40 - $14.80 ROE (non-GAAP) 18% Net Cash from Operating Activities from Continuing Operations $2.7B Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP) $700M - $800M Capital Expenditures $2.4B Debt-to-Equity 245% Third Quarter 2026 3Q26 GAAP EPS $3.80 - $4.00 3Q26 Comparable EPS (non-GAAP) $4.00 - $4.20 Supplemental Company Information Business Description Ryder System, Inc. is a leading supply chain, dedicated transportation, and fleet management solutions company.

These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding: our forecasts, guidance and outlook; market conditions, including macroeconomic uncertainty and geopolitical events; rental demand, utilization and pricing; used vehicle sales volumes, pricing and inventory levels; the freight cycle, including cycle timing and the pace and strength of any recovery; expected financial performance, including total revenue, operating revenue, EPS, comparable EPS, adjusted ROE, earnings before income tax, net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, free cash flow, capital expenditures and debt-to-equity; expectations regarding execution of our business model, including our ability to achieve long-term targets and outperform prior cycles; expected benefits of our strategic initiatives; omnichannel network optimization; customer demand, contractual sales activity, customer retention and new business opportunities; performance of our contractual businesses and contractual portfolio; fleet size and asset utilization; used vehicle inventory levels; capital deployment capacity and capital allocation priorities; the valuation and expected performance of acquired intangible assets; long-term growth opportunities and secular growth trends; our ability to increase returns and create long-term value; and our ability to return capital to shareholders, including through share repurchases and dividends. Our forward-looking statements also include estimates regarding the impact of residual value assumptions on earnings and depreciation expense. These estimates are based, in part, on our current assessment of the residual values and useful lives of revenue-earning equipment informed by multi-year trends and our outlook for near- and long-term used vehicle market conditions. 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, including changes to taxes or tariffs; driver shortages; customer requirements and preferences; and changes in underlying assumption factors. All of our forward-looking statements should be evaluated by considering the many risks and uncertainties inherent in our business that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include: changes in and uncertainty regarding financial, economic and market conditions; geopolitical events; supply chain disruptions, labor challenges and vehicle production constraints; our ability to adapt to changing market conditions, including lower than expected contractual sales activity, customer retention, new business conversion, rental demand, utilization or pricing, demand for used vehicles, or our anticipated mix of retail versus wholesale used vehicle sales; failure to realize anticipated benefits of our strategic initiatives, pricing actions, sales and marketing efforts, new product offerings or acquisitions; our ability to retain profitable customer accounts and attract new business; higher than expected maintenance costs; impact of changing laws and regulations, such as taxes, tariffs, trade restrictions or trade agreements; difficulty in obtaining adequate profit margins for our services; inability to maintain current pricing levels due to, for example, economic conditions, business interruptions, expenditures, labor disputes and extreme weather or other natural occurrences; competition from other service providers; changes in technology and new entrants; workforce availability and labor costs; higher than expected bad debt reserves or write-offs; decrease in credit ratings; increased debt costs; the adequacy of, and impact of changes in, accounting estimates, residual value estimates, assumptions and policies, including our depreciation policy; higher than expected reserves and accruals particularly with respect to pension, taxes, insurance and revenue; adverse insurance claim developments; changes in fuel and alternative energy prices, currency exchange rates, inflation or interest rates; our ability to manage our cost structure; the inability of our information technology systems to provide timely and accurate access to data or of our information security program to safeguard our or our stakeholders' data; and the risks described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The risks included here are not exhaustive. New risks emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors or to assess their impact on our business. Accordingly, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Operating Revenue Measures: Operating Revenue FMS Operating Revenue SCS Operating Revenue DTS Operating Revenue Operating Revenue Growth FMS EBT as a % of FMS Operating Revenue SCS EBT as a % of SCS Operating Revenue DTS EBT as a % of DTS Operating Revenue Operating revenue is defined as total revenue for Ryder or each business segment (FMS, SCS and DTS) excluding any (1) fuel and (2) subcontracted transportation. We use operating revenue to evaluate the operating performance of our core businesses and as a measure of sales activity at the consolidated level for Ryder System, Inc., as well as for each of our business segments. We also use segment EBT as a percentage of segment operating revenue for each business segment for the same reason. Note: FMS EBT, SCS EBT and DTS EBT, our primary measures of segment performance, are not non-GAAP measures. Fuel : We exclude FMS, SCS and DTS fuel from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as fuel is an ancillary service that we provide our customers. Fuel revenue is impacted by fluctuations in market fuel prices and the costs are largely a pass-through to our customers, resulting in minimal changes in our profitability during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, profitability may be positively or negatively impacted by rapid changes in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel services is established based on current market fuel costs. Subcontracted transportation: We exclude subcontracted transportation from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as these costs are also typically a pass-through to our customers and, therefore, carrier rate fluctuations result in minimal changes to our profitability. While our SCS and DTS business segments subcontract certain transportation services to third party providers, our FMS business segment does not engage in subcontracted transportation and, therefore, this item is not applicable to FMS. Comparable Earnings Measures: Comparable Earnings before Income Taxes (EBT) Comparable Earnings Comparable Earnings per Diluted Common Share (EPS) Comparable Tax Rate Adjusted Return on Equity (ROE) Comparable EBT, Comparable Earnings and Comparable EPS are defined, respectively, as GAAP EBT, earnings and EPS, all from continuing operations, excluding (1) non-operating pension costs, net and (2) other items impacting comparability (as further described below). We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors and allow for better year-over-year comparison of operating performance. Non-operating pension costs, net: Our comparable earnings measures exclude non-operating pension costs, net, which include the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost, interest cost and expected return on plan assets components of pension and postretirement benefit costs, as well as any significant charges for settlements or curtailments if recognized. We exclude non-operating pension costs, net because we consider these to be impacted by financial market performance and outside the operational performance of our business. Other Items Impacting Comparability: Our comparable and adjusted earnings measures also exclude other significant items that are not representative of our business operations and vary from period to period. Comparable Tax Rate is computed using the same methodology as the GAAP provision for income taxes. Income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated based on the marginal tax rates to which the non-GAAP adjustments are related. Adjusted ROE is defined as adjusted net earnings divided by adjusted average shareholders' equity and represents the rate of return on shareholders' investment. Other items impacting comparability described above are excluded, as applicable, from the calculation of adjusted net earnings and adjusted average shareholders' equity. We also exclude any significant charges for pension settlements or curtailments from the calculation of adjusted net earnings. We use adjusted ROE as an internal measure of how effectively we use the owned capital invested in our operations. Comparable Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) Comparable EBITDA is defined as net earnings, first adjusted to exclude discontinued operations and the following items, all from continuing operations: (1) non-operating pension costs, net and (2) other items impacting comparability (in each of (1) and (2), as defined in comparable earnings measures immediately above) and then adjusted further for (1) interest expense, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation, (4) used vehicle sales results and (5) intangible amortization. We believe comparable EBITDA provides investors with useful information, as it is a standard measure commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties to measure financial performance and our ability to service debt and meet our payment obligations. We believe that the inclusion of comparable EBITDA also provides consistency in financial reporting and aids investors in performing meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results. Our presentation of comparable EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Comparable EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP. Cash Flow Measures: Total Cash Generated Free Cash Flow We consider total cash generated and free cash flow to be important measures of comparative operating performance, as our principal sources of operating liquidity are cash from operations and proceeds from the sale of revenue earning equipment. Total Cash Generated is defined as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment, (3) net cash provided by the sale of operating property and equipment, and (4) other cash inflows from investing activities. We believe total cash generated is an important measure of total cash flows generated from our ongoing business activities. Free Cash Flow is defined as the net amount of cash generated from operating activities and investing activities (excluding acquisitions) from continuing operations. We calculate free cash flow as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment and operating property and equipment, and (3) other cash inflows from investing activities, less (4) purchases of property and revenue earning equipment. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available for debt service and for shareholders, after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations. Our calculation of free cash flow may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. RYDER SYSTEM, INC.
