CEO Comment

"Ryder's solid third-quarter performance reflects continued execution of our balanced growth strategy," says Ryder Chairman and CEO Robert Sanchez. "Earnings growth in our contractual lease, dedicated, and supply chain businesses remains the key driver of outperformance relative to prior cycles. ROE of 16% continues to demonstrate the increased resilience of our transformed business model and is consistent with our expectations for the latter stage of a freight-cycle downturn. Although we did not see a recovery of market conditions in used vehicle sales and rental during the quarter, we delivered comparable EPS in line with our forecast.

"We saw double-digit earnings growth in our contractual businesses. Higher ChoiceLease results from our pricing and maintenance initiatives benefited FMS. Stronger operating performance and cost-management actions benefited SCS. DTS delivered strong earnings growth, demonstrating the resiliency of our legacy business. Each of the segments also benefited from recent acquisitions.

"The earnings power of our contractual businesses is also increasing our capital deployment capacity, enabling us to invest in profitable growth and strategic initiatives while also returning capital to shareholders. Our board authorized a new discretionary two-million-share repurchase program that replaces a recently completed program. In addition, our strong balance sheet has allowed us to fund organic growth, complete strategic acquisitions, and increase our dividend.

"The long-term secular growth trends remain intact for all of our contractual businesses, although we are experiencing near-term sales headwinds that reflect the extended freight downturn and overall economic uncertainty. We remain well positioned to benefit from the expected cycle upturn and to grow with our customers as conditions improve."

Third Quarter 2024 Segment Review

- Weaker rental demand and lower used vehicle gains due to lower volumes and pricing
- Higher ChoiceLease performance and benefits from maintenance cost-savings initiatives
- Used truck and tractor pricing declined 19% and 22%, respectively, from prior year
- Sequentially, used truck pricing was up 4%; tractor pricing was down 12%, partially due to sale of newer units in the second quarter

Corporate Financial Information

Tax Rate

Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations was 24.0%, as compared to 25.2% in the prior year. Our comparable effective income tax rate (a non-GAAP measure) from continuing operations was 23.9%, compared to 27.0% in the prior year, due to discrete tax benefits.

Capital Expenditures, Cash Flow, and Leverage

Year-to-date capital expenditures decreased to $2.0 billion in 2024 compared to $2.6 billion in 2023, primarily reflecting reduced investments in the ChoiceLease fleet due to lower sales activity.

Year-to-date net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $1.7 billion compared to $1.8 billion in 2023, primarily reflecting higher working capital needs. Free cash flow (non-GAAP) of $218 million compared to $32 million in 2023, reflects reduced capital expenditures partially offset by lower proceeds from sales of used vehicles and property.

Debt-to-equity as of September 30, 2024 was 249%, compared to 232% at year-end 2023, and was slightly below the company's long-term target of 250% to 300%.

Outlook

"Our transformed business model has delivered solid results through this extended freight recession," says Ryder Chief Financial Officer John Diez. "Year-over-year earnings comparisons continue to improve, and we now expect earnings growth in the fourth quarter driven by our high-performing contractual portfolio. Our current forecast does not contemplate a recovery in freight conditions this year. We remain confident that ongoing execution of our balanced growth strategy will further enhance returns and that all segments, particularly FMS, are well positioned to benefit from the expected cycle upturn."

Note: Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements and information included in this news release are "forward-looking statements" under the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including: our forecast; our outlook; our expectations regarding market trends and economic environment, such as rental demand, economic growth, the freight environment, used vehicle sales and rental demand, and performance in our omnichannel retail vertical; our expectations regarding the freight cycle, including timing and the impact of the freight cycle on our businesses; our expectations regarding total and operating revenue, earnings per share, comparable earnings per share, adjusted ROE, earnings before income tax, net cash from operating activities from continuing operations, debt-to-equity, capital expenditures, operating cash flow and free cash flow, and the causes of change; our ability to execute our balanced growth strategy; the impact of inflationary pressures; our expectations regarding commercial rental demand and utilization and used vehicle sales volume and pricing; our expectations regarding long-term profitable growth and secular growth trends; our expectations with respect to our actions to increase returns and create long-term value; our expectations regarding used vehicle inventory and fleet size; our ability to outperform prior cycles; our ability to support organic growth, including growing our contractual lease, dedicated, and supply chain businesses at targeted returns; our expectations regarding strategic investments and acquisitions; performance of our contractual portfolio; and our expectations regarding our ability to return capital to shareholders, including through share repurchases and dividends. Our forward-looking statements also include our estimates of the impact of residual value estimates on earnings and depreciation expense that is based in part on our current assessment of the residual values and useful lives of revenue-earning equipment based on multi-year trends and our outlook for the expected near- and long-term used vehicle market. 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; 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 in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include: changes in general economic and financial conditions in the U.S. and worldwide; the ongoing supply chain and labor challenges and vehicle production constraints, including original equipment manufacturer delays; the effect of geopolitical events; our ability to adapt to changing market conditions, including lower than expected contractual sales, decreases in commercial rental demand or utilization, poor acceptance of rental pricing, declining market demand for or excess supply of used vehicles impacting current or estimated pricing, and our anticipated proportion of retail versus wholesale sales; declining customer demand for our services; higher than expected maintenance costs; lower than expected benefits from our cost-savings initiatives; our ability to effectively and efficiently integrate acquisitions into our business; lower than expected benefits from our sales, marketing, and new product initiatives; setbacks in the economic market or in our ability to retain profitable customer accounts; impact of changing laws and regulations; 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 severe weather or other natural occurrences; competition from other service providers; changes in technology and new entrants; professional driver and technician shortages resulting in higher procurement costs and turnover rates; impact of supply chain disruptions; higher than expected bad debt reserves or write-offs; decrease in credit ratings; increased debt costs; adequacy of accounting estimates; our ability to effectively and efficiently integrate acquisitions into our business; higher than expected reserves and accruals particularly with respect to pension, taxes, insurance, and revenue; impact of changes in our residual value estimates and accounting policies, including our depreciation policy; unanticipated changes in fuel and alternative energy prices; unanticipated currency exchange rate fluctuations; fluctuations in inflation or interest rates; our ability to manage our cost structure; 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 the impact of such risks 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

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 services are also typically a pass-through to our customers and, therefore, 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) any other items that are not representative of our business operations (these items are the same items that are excluded from comparable earnings measures for the relevant periods as described immediately above) and then adjusted further for (1) interest expense, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation, (4) used vehicle sales results and (5) 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.
