Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Pitney Bowes Inc. reported a sharp earnings turnaround for Q4 and full-year 2025 while revenue declined. Fourth-quarter revenue was $478 million, down 7%, but GAAP EPS improved to $0.17 from a loss of $0.21, and adjusted EPS rose 40% to $0.45. Free cash flow in Q4 increased to $212 million from $142 million.

For 2025, revenue fell 7% to $1.89 billion, yet GAAP EPS swung to a profit of $0.84 from a loss of $1.12. Adjusted EPS climbed to $1.35 from $0.82, and adjusted EBIT rose to $461 million from $385 million, with free cash flow up to $358 million.

The company deployed significant cash into capital returns and balance sheet actions, repurchasing 12.6 million shares for $127 million in Q4 and reducing principal debt by $114 million, alongside earlier buybacks that totaled roughly 20% of shares outstanding in 2025. The board increased share repurchase authorization by $250 million and approved a $0.09 quarterly dividend. Pitney Bowes also entered buy-in contracts covering about $875 million of pension obligations.

Segment results were mixed: SendTech revenue declined but delivered higher adjusted EBIT through cost savings, while Presort revenue and profitability fell on lower volumes. For 2026, the company guides revenue to $1.76–$1.86 billion, adjusted EBIT to $410–$460 million, adjusted EPS to $1.40–$1.60, and free cash flow to $340–$370 million, supported by ongoing cost discipline and capital allocation plans.

Positive

  • Profitable turnaround with stronger margins and cash flow: 2025 GAAP net income reached $145 million versus a $204 million loss in 2024, adjusted EBIT grew to $461 million from $385 million, and free cash flow increased to $358 million from $290 million despite a 7% revenue decline.
  • Aggressive capital returns and de-risking actions: The company repurchased roughly 20% of outstanding shares in 2025, reduced principal debt by $114 million in Q4, increased its share repurchase authorization by $250 million, and transferred about $875 million of pension obligations via buy-in contracts.

Negative

  • Ongoing revenue and volume pressures in core businesses: Total revenue declined 7% in both Q4 and full-year 2025, SendTech revenue fell 6–7%, and Presort revenue dropped 11% in Q4 due to volume reductions from prior pricing decisions and market decline, indicating top-line headwinds.

Insights

Pitney Bowes delivered an earnings and cash flow turnaround despite falling revenue and outlined disciplined 2026 guidance.

Pitney Bowes returned to profitability in 2025 with GAAP net income of $145 million versus a prior-year loss of $204 million. Revenue declined 7% to $1.89 billion, but adjusted EBIT increased to $461 million and free cash flow rose to $358 million, highlighting effective cost reductions and mix improvements.

Capital deployment was aggressive. Management repurchased roughly 20% of outstanding shares during 2025, including 12.6 million shares for $127 million in Q4 and an additional 1.2 million shares for $12 million early in 2026. They also reduced principal debt by $114 million in Q4 and executed pension buy-ins covering about $875 million of projected obligations, while maintaining leverage below 3.0x under their credit agreement.

For 2026, guidance calls for revenue of $1.76–$1.86 billion, adjusted EBIT of $410–$460 million, adjusted EPS of $1.40–$1.60, and free cash flow of $340–$370 million. The CEO highlights priorities such as revitalizing Presort with more competitive pricing, reimagining SendTech’s growth strategy, optimizing Pitney Bowes Bank, and continuing a flexible capital allocation approach. Subsequent filings and earnings calls in 2026 will reveal how well execution tracks against these targets.

Adjusted Segment EBIT Adjusted Segment EBIT is the primary measure of profitability and operational performance at the segment level. Adjusted Segment EBIT includes segment revenues and related costs and expenses attributable to the segment, but excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses, restructuring charges, and other items not allocated to a business segment. We also report Adjusted Segment EBITDA as an additional useful measure of segment profitability and operational performance, which is calculated as Adjusted Segment EBIT plus depreciation and amortization expense of the segment. Use of Non-GAAP Measures Pitney Bowes’ financial results are reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Pitney Bowes also discloses certain non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (Adjusted EBIT), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) and free cash flow. Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS exclude the impact of restructuring charges, foreign currency gains and losses on intercompany loans, certain costs associated with the Ecommerce Restructuring, gains and losses on debt redemptions and other unusual items that we believe are not indicative to our core business operations.


 
Free cash flow adjusts cash flow from operations calculated in accordance with GAAP for capital expenditures, restructuring payments and other special items. Management believes free cash flow provides better insight into the amount of cash available for other discretionary uses. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures can be found in the attached financial schedules and at the Company's web site at: https://www.investorrelations.pitneybowes.com/. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward‑looking non‑GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures because items necessary for such reconciliation are not available on a reasonable basis without unreasonable efforts.

1 Pitney Bowes - Confidential Fellow Pitney Bowes Shareholders, Thank you for your ongoing investment in Pitney Bowes. As detailed in the Company’s earnings press release, we produced strong financial results in the Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2025. These results reflect new leadership’s focus on accretive capital allocation, disciplined cost management and improved operational execution. With this said, one-time items and ongoing share purchases also represented a material tailwind. Looking ahead to Fiscal Year 2026, our core businesses – Presort and SendTech – are positioned to generate strong cash flow and earnings despite sustained revenue headwinds. SendTech is expected to gradually exit what we believe to be the low point of its product cycle. However, we will also contend with the prospect of additional market uncertainty and geopolitical challenges. These factors, as well as our efforts to improve forecasting, contributed to us disclosing wider ranges for the current year’s guidance in the Company’s earnings press release. I am devoting the rest of this letter to detailing our 2025 successes and learnings, as well as summarizing priorities for 2026. Decisive Action Drove Tangible Progress and Strong Value in 2025 As noted, we took decisive action which supported our success last year, including: Strengthening Senior Leadership –A key output of our strategic review has been upgrading our senior team, by appointing Paul Evans (an experienced public company finance executive and director) as CFO, appointing Todd Everett (an experienced technology executive who previously led Newgistics to a value- maximizing sale to Pitney Bowes) as President of SendTech, and hiring Steve Fischer (previous CEO of TIAA bank, which had a balance sheet with ~$35 billion in assets) to run Pitney Bowes Bank. We also upgraded positions by elevating existing talent, including making Ruchi Bhalla head of HR and Wes Kirschner head of IT. Additionally, the executive team has upgraded their talent and continues to eliminate bureaucratic layers. Enhancing and Streamlining Operations - New leadership’s focus on efficiency and smoother processes delivered additional annualized cost savings in excess of $50 million – without the use of consultants. Although we do not foresee a near-term repeat of one-time cost reductions, we are building a culture of continual improvement that will lead to sustained progress with regard to cost management, operational outputs and speed of execution. Our cultural reset helped us make the decision to move our corporate headquarters to the Company’s existing facility in Shelton, Connecticut and eliminate the complex structure of our Global Financial Services group. Fortifying Our Balance Sheet and Financial Profile - In Fiscal Year 2025, we reduced our borrowing costs through the issuance of low-yielding convertible debt and the retirement of higher interest rate debt through a tender offer and open market repurchases. We again reached a sub-3.0x leverage ratio per our credit agreement at year-end, giving us greater flexibility under our covenants. We also increased our Revolving Credit Facility, which provides liquidity and is our lowest cost non-convertible source of borrowing, from $265 million to $400 million. We returned capital to shareholders by repurchasing roughly 20% of our outstanding shares and increasing our quarterly dividend by 80%. Furthermore, we started the process of exiting our U.S., Canadian, and two smaller European pension plans by entering into annuity contracts with Exhibit 99.2

These actions, as well as others, helped us attract coverage from new sell side analysts and achieve an S&P positive credit watch. Tough, Yet Valuable, Learnings From 2025 The early-year decision to maintain high pricing for Presort resulted in profitable business walking out the door, based on the belief that we have a premium service that justifies a higher price. While it is true we offer a premium service, with an extraordinary Net Promoter Score and faster delivery of mail than our competitors, customers largely buy based on price. We started working diligently to reverse these declines in the second half, resulting in new business wins and no material customer losses since June 2025. Another challenge was offsetting revenue declines. In addition to the pricing approach in Presort, we did not drive significant growth in SendTech’s shipping software vertical. As noted in the previous section, we have made important leadership changes to support a heightened focus on pursuing profitable growth. Finally, our financial forecasting misses represented a disappointment. They hindered our ability to mitigate problems and address financial headwinds. Please know that we have taken decisive action to improve our forecasting ability, including bringing in experienced outside talent and promoting the right internal talent. Opportunities for Improvement and Strategic Objectives for 2026 To build on the initial momentum established last year, we are focused on the following in 2026: Revitalizing Presort – Presort is an exceptional business with distinct competitive advantages, including our network, systems, customer service and scale. We are focused on reigniting volume growth by maintaining a highly competitive pricing model and more aggressively pursuing accretive tuck-in acquisition opportunities. I have given Presort President Debbie Pfeiffer the “green light” to act with urgency to seize Presort’s exciting opportunities. Maximizing Presort's long-term value may require aggressive pricing in the coming year(s), but it is in the best interest of shareholders that we remain willing to forego short-term profitability for long-term cash flow. Reimaging SendTech – SendTech is also an attractive, high-margin business that serves the vast majority of the Fortune 500 and hundreds of thousands of small and medium-sized businesses. Todd Everett and our revamped SendTech leadership team are developing new strategies that leverage the segment’s strong position, exceptional customer base, and strong technology offerings to stem revenue declines and then resume growth. This includes focusing on mailing meter retention to slow historic mid-single-digit declines, expanding our shipping footprint with enterprise customers where our analytic offerings provide differentiation, and potentially realigning our shipping portfolio around fewer, higher-ROI solutions. We intend to articulate and start implementing this plan by the end of the first half of 2026. Realizing the Potential of PB Bank – Pitney Bowes Bank is a key part of the Company, allowing us to offer postage payment options and other value-added financing solutions to approximately 400,000 long-tenured customers and holding more than $575 million of low-cost, long-duration deposits that we believe can help generate growth at attractive risk-adjusted returns. Under Steve Fischer, we will work to optimize cash and strengthen the Company’s already improved balance sheet, while delivering profitable growth.


 
3 Pitney Bowes - Confidential Proceeding to Strategic Review Phase 2 –We are still on track to commence our strategic review’s second phase by the end of the second quarter. This endeavor will focus on working with independent financial and legal advisors to review all potential alternatives to our standalone value creation trajectory. Strategically Allocating Capital – I remain dedicated to a nimble capital allocation policy that balances debt reduction, share repurchases, well-timed dividend increases, and long-term and opportunistic investment in our organization. We plan to continue to deleverage in 2026 and are committed to targeting a leverage ratio ~3.0x Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA over the long-term. We are also increasing our share repurchase authorization by $250 million to maximize flexibility. Conclusion Thank you to our shareholders, debtholders, employees and customers for the faith you have put in our revamped leadership team. I can assure you that we are working tirelessly to reward you for that faith. Sincerely, Kurt Wolf Chief Executive Officer & Director Pitney Bowes
