CEO Comment

Matthew Flannery, chief executive officer of United Rentals, said, “We are pleased with our solid second-quarter results, which reflect a continuation of the momentum we reported last quarter. Our updated guidance is a result of the growth we achieved across both our general rentals and specialty businesses, and supported by our customer optimism, backlogs and the momentum we are carrying into the remainder of the construction season.”

Flannery continued, “Looking forward, our team’s commitment to living our One UR culture every day, and focusing on being the partner of choice for our customers, is what allows us to deliver the results our shareholders have come to expect. We continue to see particular strength in our specialty business and in large projects this year, and believe our unique value proposition, coupled with our go-to-market approach, best-in-class technology offerings, and smart capital allocation will enable us to continue to generate profitable growth, strong free cash flow and compelling returns. To this point, I’m also pleased to announce a $400 million increase to our planned share repurchases this year, supported by the additional free cash flow we expect to generate in 2025.”

_______________

1.Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), adjusted EPS (earnings per share) and free cash flow are non-GAAP measures as defined in the tables below. See the tables below for reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

2.Rental revenue includes owned equipment rental revenue, re-rent revenue and ancillary revenue.

3.Net income margin and adjusted EBITDA margin represent net income or adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.

4.Fleet productivity reflects the combined impact of changes in rental rates, time utilization and mix on owned equipment rental revenue.

5.The net leverage ratio reflects net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) divided by adjusted EBITDA for the trailing 12 months. Total liquidity reflects cash and cash equivalents plus availability under the asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL facility”) and the accounts receivable securitization facility.

2025 Outlook

The company has raised its 2025 outlook, as reflected below.

Current Outlook

Prior Outlook

Total revenue*

$15.8 billion to $16.1 billion

$15.6 billion to $16.1 billion

Adjusted EBITDA6**

$7.3 billion to $7.45 billion

$7.2 billion to $7.45 billion

Net rental capital expenditures after gross purchases

$2.2 billion to $2.5 billion, after gross purchases of $3.65 billion to $3.95 billion

Net cash provided by operating activities

$4.9 billion to $5.5 billion

$4.5 billion to $5.1 billion

Free cash flow excluding merger and restructuring related payments7

$2.4 billion to $2.6 billion

$2.0 billion to $2.2 billion

* The $100 million increase in the total revenue outlook at mid-point is primarily driven by stronger than expected growth in ancillary revenues, with core rental results expected to remain in line with prior expectations.

** The increase in the adjusted EBITDA outlook at mid-point primarily reflects the $52 million net merger termination benefit8 the company realized following the February 2025 termination of its agreement to acquire H&E Equipment Services, Inc.

Summary of Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

•Rental revenue increased 6.2% year-over-year to a second quarter record of $3.415 billion. Fleet productivity increased 3.3% year-over-year, while average original equipment at cost (“OEC”) increased 3.6%.

•Used equipment sales in the quarter decreased 13.2% year-over-year. Used equipment sales generated $317 million of proceeds at a GAAP gross margin of 46.1% and an adjusted gross margin9 of 48.3%, compared to a GAAP gross margin of 47.4% and an adjusted gross margin of 51.8% for the same period last year, and a GAAP gross margin of 44.3% and an adjusted gross margin of 47.2% for the first quarter of 2025. The year-over-year declines in the GAAP and adjusted gross margins primarily reflected the normalization of the used equipment market, including pricing.

•Net income for the quarter decreased 2.2% year-over-year to $622 million. Net income margin decreased 110 basis points to 15.8%, primarily driven by decreased rental gross margin, which reflected the impact of inflation and normal cost variability, particularly in delivery and labor and benefits costs. The impact of an increase in the effective tax rate, which was primarily due to state tax benefits recognized in 2024, was offset by a decrease in interest expense as a percentage of revenue, which primarily reflected decreased variable debt interest rates.

•Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter increased 2.3% year-over-year to a second quarter record of $1.810 billion. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 100 basis points to 45.9%, primarily reflecting decreases in rental gross margin (excluding depreciation and stock compensation expense) and adjusted gross margin from used equipment sales, both of which are discussed above.

•General rentals segment rental revenue increased 2.7% year-over-year to a second quarter record of $2.268 billion, while rental gross margin decreased by 120 basis points year-over-year to 35.1%, primarily due to inflation and normal cost variability, particularly in delivery and labor and benefits costs.

_______________

6.Information reconciling forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to the comparable GAAP financial measures is unavailable to the company without unreasonable effort, as discussed below.

7.Free cash flow excludes merger and restructuring related payments, which cannot be reasonably predicted for the 2025 outlook. Merger and restructuring related payments were $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

8.For further information on the merger termination benefit associated with the terminated acquisition of H&E Equipment Services, Inc. d/b/a H&E Rentals (“H&E”), see the company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 filed with the SEC.

9.Used equipment sales adjusted gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact ($7 million and $16 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively) of the fair value mark-up of fleet acquired in certain major acquisitions that was subsequently sold. This adjustment is explained further in the tables below, and represents the only difference between the GAAP gross margin and the adjusted gross margin.

•Specialty rentals segment rental revenue increased 14.0% year-over-year to a second quarter record of $1.147 billion. Rental gross margin decreased by 220 basis points year-over-year to 45.8%, primarily due to inflation and normal cost variability, particularly in delivery and labor and benefits costs, and higher depreciation expense due, in part, to growth in the company's matting business. Consistent with first quarter results, the increase in second quarter delivery costs also related to the repositioning fleet to efficiently support strong demand.

•Cash flow from operating activities increased 20.0% year-over-year to $2.753 billion for the first six months of 2025, and free cash flow, including merger and restructuring related payments, increased 12.5%, from $1.065 billion to $1.198 billion. Cash flow from operating activities and free cash flow in 2025 both included a $52 million merger termination benefit associated with the terminated H&E acquisition.

•Capital management. The company's net leverage ratio was 1.8x at June 30, 2025, which was flat with December 31, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company completed its prior $1.5 billion10 share repurchase program and commenced a new $1.5 billion10 share repurchase program. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company repurchased $667 million10 of common stock under both these programs, and paid dividends totaling $235 million. Subsequent to the enactment of new federal tax legislation (“H.R.1”) on July 4, 2025, and the resulting benefit to the company's cash flow from operations, the company increased its expected 2025 repurchases of common stock by $400 million to $1.9 billion. In conjunction with the change to the 2025 share repurchase plans, the company's Board of Directors approved an increase in the size of the company's current share repurchase program, from $1.5 billion10 to $2.0 billion10, which will support the $400 million of additional share repurchases planned for 2025 and provide approximately $350 million of carry-over capacity for share repurchases in early 2026. Additionally, the company's Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $1.79 per share, payable on August 27, 2025 to stockholders of record on August 13, 2025.

•Total liquidity was $2.996 billion as of June 30, 2025, including $548 million of cash and cash equivalents. Subsequent to the quarter, on July 10, 2025, the company's ABL facility was amended, primarily to increase the facility size from $4.25 billion to $4.5 billion and extend the maturity date to 2030, thereby augmenting liquidity by $250 million.

•Return on invested capital (ROIC)11 was 12.4% for the 12 months ended June 30, 2025.

The replay number for the call is 402-220-6053. The passcode for both the conference call and the replay is 72612.

_______________

10.A 1% excise tax is imposed on “net repurchases” (certain purchases minus certain issuances) of common stock. The repurchases noted above (as well as the total program sizes and planned 2025 repurchases) do not include the excise tax, which totaled $6 million year-to-date through June 30, 2025.

11.The company’s ROIC metric uses after-tax operating income for the trailing 12 months divided by average stockholders’ equity, debt and deferred taxes, net of average cash. To mitigate the volatility related to fluctuations in the company’s tax rate from period to period, the U.S. federal corporate statutory tax rate of 21% was used to calculate after-tax operating income.

Non-GAAP Measures

Free cash flow, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share (adjusted EPS) and used equipment sales adjusted gross margin are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the SEC. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less payments for purchases of, and plus proceeds from, equipment and intangible assets. The equipment and intangible asset items are included in cash flows from investing activities. EBITDA represents the sum of net income, provision for income taxes, interest expense, net, depreciation of rental equipment and non-rental depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the sum of the restructuring charges, stock compensation expense, net, and the impact of the fair value mark-up of acquired fleet. Adjusted EPS represents EPS plus the sum of the restructuring charges, the impact on depreciation related to acquired fleet and property and equipment, the impact of the fair value mark-up of acquired fleet, merger related intangible asset amortization, asset impairment charge and debt related losses. Used equipment sales adjusted gross margin excludes the impact of the fair value mark-up of fleet acquired in certain major acquisitions that was subsequently sold (this adjustment is explained further in the adjusted EPS and EBITDA/adjusted EBITDA tables below). The company believes that: (i) free cash flow provides useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital requirements; (ii) EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about operating performance and period-over-period growth, and help investors gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ongoing cash earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced; (iii) adjusted EPS provides useful information concerning future profitability; and (iv) used equipment sales adjusted gross margin provides information that is useful for evaluating the profitability of used equipment sales without regard to potential distortions. However, none of these measures should be considered as alternatives to net income, cash flows from operating activities, earnings per share or GAAP gross margin from used equipment sales under GAAP as indicators of operating performance or liquidity. See the tables below for further discussion of these non-GAAP measures.

Information reconciling forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to GAAP financial measures is unavailable to the company without unreasonable effort. The company is not able to provide reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP financial measures because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of the company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, such as the provision for income taxes. Preparation of such reconciliations would require a forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flow, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements are unavailable to the company without unreasonable effort (as specified in the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K). The company provides a range for its adjusted EBITDA forecast that it believes will be achieved, however it cannot accurately predict all the components of the adjusted EBITDA calculation. The company provides an adjusted EBITDA forecast because it believes that adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the company’s results under GAAP, provides useful information for the reasons noted above. However, adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity.

(8) competition from existing and new competitors; (9) the cyclical nature of the industry in which we operate and the industries of our customers, such as those in the construction industry; (10) costs we incur being more than anticipated, including as a result of inflation or tariffs, and the inability to realize expected savings in the amounts or time frames planned; (11) our significant indebtedness requires a significant amount of cash for debt service and can constrain our flexibility in responding to unanticipated or adverse business conditions; (12) inability to refinance our indebtedness on terms that are favorable to us, including as a result of volatility and uncertainty in capital or credit markets or increases in interest rates, or at all; (13) incurrence of additional debt, which could exacerbate the risks associated with our current level of indebtedness; (14) noncompliance with financial or other covenants in our debt agreements, which could result in our lenders terminating the agreements and requiring us to repay outstanding borrowings; (15) restrictive covenants and the amount of borrowings permitted under our debt instruments, which can limit our financial and operational flexibility; (16) inability to access the capital that our businesses or growth plans may require, including as a result of uncertainty in capital or credit markets; (17) the possibility that companies that we have acquired or may acquire could have undiscovered liabilities, or that companies or assets that we have acquired or may acquire could involve other unexpected costs, may strain our management capabilities, or may be difficult to integrate, and that we may not realize the expected benefits from an acquisition over the timeframe we expect, or at all; (18) incurrence of impairment charges; (19) fluctuations in the price of our common stock and inability to complete stock repurchases or pay dividends in the time frames and/or on the terms anticipated; (20) our charter provisions as well as provisions of certain debt agreements and our significant indebtedness may have the effect of making more difficult or otherwise discouraging, delaying or deterring a takeover or other change of control of us; (21) inability to manage credit risk adequately or to collect on contracts with a large number of customers; (22) turnover in our management team and inability to attract and retain key personnel, as well as loss, absenteeism or the inability of employees to work or perform key functions in light of public health crises or epidemics;

(26) risks related to security breaches, cybersecurity attacks, failure to protect personal information, compliance with privacy, data protection and cyber incident reporting laws and regulations, and other significant disruptions to our information technology systems; (27) risks related to severe weather events and other natural occurrences, and climate change regulation; (28) risks related to our aspirational sustainability and safety goals, including our greenhouse gas intensity reduction goal; (29) the fact that our holding company structure requires us to depend in part on distributions from subsidiaries and such distributions could be limited by contractual or legal restrictions; (30) shortfalls in our insurance coverage or inability to obtain coverage on reasonable terms or at all; (31) increases in our loss reserves to address business operations or other claims and any claims that exceed our established levels of reserves; (32) the outcome or other potential consequences of litigation, regulatory and investigatory matters; (33) incurrence of expenses (including indemnification obligations) and other costs in connection with litigation, regulatory and investigatory matters; (34) risks related to, and the costs of complying with, environmental and safety laws and regulations;

RENTAL REVENUE

Fleet productivity is a comprehensive metric that provides greater insight into the decisions made by our managers in support of growth and returns. Specifically, we seek to optimize the interplay of rental rates, time utilization and mix in driving rental revenue. Fleet productivity aggregates, in one metric, the impact of changes in rates, utilization and mix on owned equipment rental revenue.

We believe that this metric is useful in assessing the effectiveness of our decisions on rates, time utilization and mix, particularly as they support the creation of shareholder value. The table below shows the components of the year-over-year change in rental revenue using the fleet productivity methodology:


	Year-over-year change in average OEC	Assumed year-over-year inflation impact (1)	Fleet productivity (2)	Contribution from ancillary and re-rent revenue (3)	Total change in rental revenue

Three Months Ended June 30, 2025	3.6%	(1.5)%	3.3%	0.8%	6.2%


Six Months Ended June 30, 2025	3.5%	(1.5)%	3.2%	1.6%	6.8%

Please refer to our Second Quarter 2025 Investor Presentation for additional detail on fleet productivity.

(1)Reflects the estimated impact of inflation on the revenue productivity of fleet based on OEC, which is recorded at cost.

(2)Reflects the combined impact of changes in rental rates, time utilization and mix on owned equipment rental revenue. Changes in customers, fleet, geographies and segments all contribute to changes in mix.

(3)Reflects the combined impact of changes in other types of equipment rental revenue: ancillary and re-rent (excludes owned equipment rental revenue).

ADJUSTED EARNINGS PER SHARE GAAP RECONCILIATION

We define “earnings per share – adjusted” as the sum of earnings per share – GAAP, as-reported plus the impact of the following special items: merger related intangible asset amortization, impact on depreciation related to acquired fleet and property and equipment, impact of the fair value mark-up of acquired fleet, restructuring charge, asset impairment charge and debt related losses. See below for further detail on the special items. Management believes that earnings per share - adjusted provides useful information concerning future profitability. However, earnings per share - adjusted is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Accordingly, earnings per share - adjusted should not be considered an alternative to GAAP earnings per share. The table below provides a reconciliation between earnings per share – GAAP, as-reported, and earnings per share – adjusted.

(1)For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the impact of the merger termination benefit associated with the terminated H&E acquisition was a net benefit of $0.45 per diluted share. The merger termination did not impact the results for any other period above.

(2)The tax rates applied to the adjustments reflect the statutory rates in the applicable entities.

(3)Reflects the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in the major acquisitions completed since 2012 that significantly impact our operations (the "major acquisitions," each of which had annual revenues of over $200 million prior to acquisition).

(4)Reflects the impact of extending the useful lives of equipment acquired in certain major acquisitions, net of the impact of additional depreciation associated with the fair value mark-up of such equipment.

(5)Reflects additional costs recorded in cost of rental equipment sales associated with the fair value mark-up of rental equipment acquired in certain major acquisitions and subsequently sold.

(6)Primarily reflects severance and branch closure charges associated with our restructuring programs. We only include such costs that are part of a restructuring program as restructuring charges. The designated restructuring programs generally involve the closure of a large number of branches over a short period of time, often in periods following a major acquisition, and result in significant costs that we would not normally incur absent a major acquisition or other triggering event that results in the initiation of a restructuring program. Since the first such restructuring program was initiated in 2008, we have completed seven restructuring programs and have incurred total restructuring charges of $384 million. We currently have no open restructuring programs.

(7)Reflects write-offs of leasehold improvements and other fixed assets.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

($ in millions, except footnotes)

EBITDA represents the sum of net income, provision for income taxes, interest expense, net, depreciation of rental equipment, and non-rental depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the sum of the restructuring charges, stock compensation expense, net, and the impact of the fair value mark-up of acquired fleet. See below for further detail on each adjusting item. These items are excluded from adjusted EBITDA internally when evaluating our operating performance and for strategic planning and forecasting purposes, and allow investors to make a more meaningful comparison between our core business operating results over different periods of time, as well as with those of other similar companies. The net income and adjusted EBITDA margins represent net income or adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. Management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the company’s results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliation, provide useful information about operating performance and period-over-period growth, and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the operating performance of our core business without regard to potential distortions. Additionally, management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA help investors gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ongoing cash earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced.

The table below provides a reconciliation between net income and EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.

FREE CASH FLOW GAAP RECONCILIATION

(In millions, except footnotes)

We define “free cash flow” as net cash provided by operating activities less payments for purchases of, and plus proceeds from, equipment and intangible assets. The equipment and intangible asset items are included in cash flows from investing activities. Management believes that free cash flow provides useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital requirements. However, free cash flow is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. Accordingly, free cash flow should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity. The table below provides a reconciliation between net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow.


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2025		2024		2025		2024
Net cash provided by operating activities (1)	$	1,328	$	1,265	$	2,753	$	2,294
Payments for purchases of rental equipment	(1,460)		(1,355)		(2,121)		(1,866)
Payments for purchases of non-rental equipment and intangible assets	(98)		(107)		(182)		(165)
Proceeds from sales of rental equipment	317		365		694		748
Proceeds from sales of non-rental equipment	17		17		31		30
Insurance proceeds from damaged equipment	12		11		23		24

Free cash flow (1) (2)	$	116	$	196	$	1,198	$	1,065

(1)For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the impact of the merger termination benefit associated with the terminated H&E acquisition was a net $52 million benefit for both net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow. The merger termination did not impact the results for any other period above.

(2)Free cash flow included aggregate merger and restructuring related payments of $2 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and $3 million and $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
