Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Gross Transaction Value financial
"Gross Transaction Value ("GTV"): Represents total proceeds"
Gross transaction value is the total dollar amount of all purchases or payments processed through a platform during a given period, measured before subtracting refunds, discounts, fees or cancellations. Investors watch it as a broad measure of a business’s sales volume and marketplace activity—like counting every ticket sold at a concert before refunds—to gauge growth and customer usage, while remembering it is not the same as actual revenue or profit.
Inventory return financial
"Inventory return: Inventory sales revenue less cost of inventory sold."
Inventory rate financial
"Inventory rate: Inventory return divided by inventory sales revenue."
Normal Course Issuer Bid financial
"Normal Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB")"
A Normal Course Issuer Bid is when a company buys back its own shares from the stock market over time. This usually shows that the company believes its stock is undervalued and wants to support its price, which can be important for investors to watch.
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding depreciation and amortization"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially, and may include, among others, statements relating to:
•our future strategy, objectives, targets, projections and performance;
•potential growth and market opportunities;
•potential future mergers and acquisitions;
•our ability to integrate acquisitions;
•the impact of our new initiatives, services, investments, and acquisitions on us and our customers;
•our future capital expenditures and returns on those expenditures;
•the effect of any current, proposed or future tariffs on our results of operations; and
•financing available to us from our credit facilities or other sources, our ability to refinance borrowings, and the sufficiency of our working capital to meet our financial needs.
While we have not described all potential risks related to our business and owning our common shares, the important factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A: Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is available on our website at https://investor.rbglobal.com, on EDGAR at www.sec.gov, or on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, are among those that we believe could materially affect our performance or could cause our actual financial and operational results to differ significantly from our expectations. Except as required by applicable securities law and regulations of relevant securities exchanges, we do not intend to update publicly any forward-looking statements, even if our expectations have been affected by new information, future events, or other developments.

Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Preparation
Description of Business
RB Global, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a leading, omnichannel marketplace and trusted provider of value-added insights, services and transaction solutions for buyers and sellers of commercial assets and vehicles worldwide.
The Company is incorporated in Canada under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).
Basis of Preparation
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and accordingly, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with, and follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as, the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for fair financial statement presentation. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3. Acquisitions
BigIron
On May 15, 2026, the Company completed its acquisition of 100 % of the equity interest in Big Iron Auction Company (“BigIron”), a U.S.-based online marketplace for agricultural equipment, land, and livestock. The acquisition is expected to accelerate the Company’s strategic expansion into the U.S. agriculture sector.

| Fair value of acquired intangible assets | $ | |||||||||||||
The purchase price was paid in cash at closing. The purchase agreement includes a $15.0 million deferred payment payable on the third anniversary of the acquisition date, subject to certain employment and non-compete conditions. The payment is accounted for as compensation for future services and recognized over the requisite service period.
The purchase price allocation is preliminary as of September 30, 2026. The most significant items pending completion include final review of the preliminary valuation of identifiable intangible assets. Adjustments to the preliminary allocation, including changes to intangible asset values and related amortization, may be recorded during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) as additional information becomes available.
During the third quarter of 2026, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment to customer relationship intangible assets, decreasing their carrying value by approximately $37.3 million, with a corresponding increase to goodwill, as a result of revised valuation assumptions, including customer retention and attrition rates. The estimated useful life was revised from 7 years to 5 years. The resulting adjustment to amortization expense was not material.
The goodwill recognized primarily reflects expected synergies associated with the Company’s expansion into the U.S. agriculture market, the value of BigIron’s assembled workforce, and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. Goodwill has been assigned to the Ritchie Bros. reporting unit and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
BigIron revenue and net income included in the consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date are not material. BigIron revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately $86.2 million (unaudited) and net income was not material.
Acquisition-related and integration costs associated with the BigIron acquisition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $4.2 million and $6.6 million, respectively, comprised primarily of transaction-related and post-acquisition compensation costs.
Blackmon
On April 13, 2026, the Company acquired the business assets of Blackmon Auctions (“Blackmon”), a U.S.-based auction provider serving the construction, transportation, agriculture, and real estate sectors. The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price allocation is preliminary as of September 30, 2026 and the purchase price of $17.0 million has been allocated primarily to customer relationships and goodwill.

Acquisition-related and integration costs associated with the Blackmon acquisition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $0.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively, comprised primarily of transaction-related and post-acquisition compensation costs.
J.M. Wood
On July 14, 2025, the Company completed its acquisition of 100 % of the equity interests in J.M. Wood Auction Co., Inc. ("J.M. Wood"), an auction business located in Montgomery, Alabama. The acquisition is expected to expand the Company's geographic coverage and combines J.M. Wood's regional expertise and customer relationships with the Company's global network and technology.
The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations. The following table presents the final allocation of the purchase consideration to the major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:
| Fair value of purchase consideration | $ | ||||

| Goodwill acquired on acquisition | $ | ||||
Approximately $163.6 million of the purchase price, net of cash acquired, was paid at closing with the remainder to be paid in fixed installments on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the closing date. The deferred payments that formed part of the purchase consideration were recorded as liabilities at their acquisition-date fair value of $43.1 million, determined by discounting the contractual payments using the Company’s credit-adjusted discount rate, with $13.8 million presented within trade and other liabilities and $29.3 million presented within other non-current liabilities as of the acquisition date. The portion of the deferred payments that represents compensation for future services is being recognized over the requisite service period. The first anniversary payment was made during the third quarter of 2026. The portion of the payment representing settlement of the deferred purchase consideration was classified as a financing activity in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
The following table presents the fair values of the identifiable intangible assets acquired:
| Asset | Fair value at acquisition | Weighted average amortization period | ||||||||||||

Goodwill recognized reflects expected synergies of the combined company, the assembled workforce, and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. Goodwill has been assigned to the Ritchie Bros. reporting unit and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Acquisition-related and integration costs associated with the J.M. Wood acquisition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, were $2.8 million and $12.0 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $2.6 million and $5.0 million, respectively), comprised primarily of post-acquisition employment costs.

Note 6. Income Taxes
Income tax expense for interim periods is based upon an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for the effects of any significant and infrequent or unusual items required to be recognized discretely within the current interim period. The estimated income tax expense reflects, among other items, management’s best estimate of operating results. It does not include the estimated impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations or unusual and/or infrequent items, which may cause significant variations in the customary relationship between income tax expense and income before income taxes.
The Company's effective tax rate was 24.8 % and 23.1 % for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. The variance from the Canadian statutory federal tax rate of 25.0%, comprised of the basic corporate rate of 38% less the 13% general rate reduction, relates primarily to the benefit from Foreign-Derived Intangible Income in both periods.
The Company is routinely subject to tax audits and reviews in various jurisdictions globally. Tax authorities may challenge the manner in which the Company has filed its tax returns and reported its income.
On December 3, 2024, the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") issued the Company a Notice of Assessment and Statement of Interest for C$79.1 million ($55.6 million), for the taxation years 2010 through 2015, inclusive of C$37.7 million ($26.5 million) in income taxes, and C$41.4 million ($29.1 million) in interest and penalties. The CRA is asserting that one of the Company’s Luxembourg subsidiaries, which was in operation from 2010 to 2020, was a resident in Canada from 2010 through 2015 and that its worldwide income should be subject to Canadian income taxation.
In February 2025, the Company filed a Notice of Objection with the CRA as it believes it is and has been in full compliance with Canadian tax laws and it intends to pursue all available administrative and judicial remedies necessary to resolve this matter. In addition, the Company paid a deposit of C$39.5 million ($27.7 million) to the CRA in early February 2025, recorded within other non-current assets, the minimum required by law as part of the CRA’s objection process. In the event that the Company prevails in its objection or subsequent legal proceedings, the deposit would be refunded with interest to the Company. In June 2025, the Company filed a Notice of Appeal with the Tax Court of Canada. In October 2025, the Canadian Crown filed a response to the Company’s Notice of Appeal with the Tax Court of Canada maintaining the CRA’s assertion and requesting that the Company’s appeal be dismissed. The Company believes the Crown’s response is without merit and plans to continue to litigate.
In the event that the Company’s tax filing position is not upheld by either the CRA or by a court of last resort, the Company would incur and record the amounts assessed in income tax, interest and penalties in its consolidated financial statements, which could have a material negative effect on the Company’s results of operations.
The Company, from time to time, receives correspondence and information requests relating to this matter, including as it relates to other taxation years, to which it responds fully and timely. Depending on the outcome of this matter, the Company could incur additional income taxes, penalties and interest, which could have a material negative effect on its results of operations.
At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company has not recorded any amounts relating to this matter in the consolidated financial statements, as it is the Company’s conclusion that it is more likely than not that the Company’s tax filing position will ultimately be sustained. The Company is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this matter and the final disposition of any appeals, which could take numerous years to resolve.

| TLA Facility loans | Level 2 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Senior Secured Notes | Level 1 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Senior Unsecured Notes | Level 1 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The fair value of loans receivable with a maturity date greater than one year is determined by estimating discounted cash flows using current market rates. The fair values of the Revolving Facilities loans and TLA Facility loans, before deduction of deferred debt issuance costs, approximate their carrying amounts as the interest rates are variable and market-based. The fair values of the Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes are determined by reference to quoted market prices in an over-the-counter broker market.
The fair value of derivative financial instruments was not material at September 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. The gross notional amount of forward currency contracts outstanding at September 30, 2026 was $50.2 million (December 31, 2025: $59.6 million).

The conversion price is $71.58 per share as of September 30, 2026. The Series A Senior Preferred Shares carry a 5.5 % preferred dividend, which is payable quarterly, in cash or in shares at the Company's option, and are entitled to participate on an as-converted basis in the Company's regular quarterly common share dividends, subject to a $0.27 per share per quarter floor. The Series A Senior Preferred Shares have no par value.

On the fourth anniversary of the issuance date of February 1, 2023, holders will have the right to increase the preferred dividend to 7.50 %, and on the ninth anniversary of the issuance date, holders will have the right to increase the preferred dividend to a fixed percentage equal to the greater of (a) 600 bps over the daily simple SOFR as then in effect and (b) 10.50 %, subject, in each case, to the Company’s right to redeem the Series A Senior Preferred Shares for which a dividend rate increase has been demanded.
Upon consummation of one or more specified change of control transactions, the holders will have the right to require the Company to repurchase the Series A Senior Preferred Shares in cash provided, however, that each holder, at its option, may elect instead to convert its Series A Senior Preferred Shares into the applicable change of control consideration. In addition, the Company has the right to redeem the Series A Senior Preferred Shares in the event of a change of control transaction where the successor entity is not traded on certain eligible markets. The possible future redemption of the Series A Senior Preferred Shares as a result of a change of control has been assessed as not probable at September 30, 2026.
Holders of the Series A Senior Preferred Shares are entitled to vote together with the common shares on an as-converted basis on all matters permitted by applicable law, subject to certain exceptions to enable compliance with applicable antitrust law. The Series A Senior Preferred Shares rank, with respect to rights as to dividends, distributions, redemptions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, (a) senior to all of the junior preferred stock, common shares and any other class or series of capital shares of the Company, issued or authorized after the Series A Senior Preferred Shares issuance date, the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks senior to or on a parity with the Series A Senior Preferred Shares, (b) on a parity basis with each other class or series of capital shares issued or authorized after the Series A Senior Preferred Shares issuance date, the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks on a parity basis with the Series A Senior Preferred Shares, and (c) junior with each other class or series of capital shares issued or authorized after the Series A Senior Preferred Shares issuance date, the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks on a senior basis to the Series A Senior Preferred Shares.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, holders of the Series A Senior Preferred Shares were paid preferred dividends of $6.7 million and $20.1 million, respectively, (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $6.7 million and $20.1 million, respectively) and participating dividends of $2.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $2.1 million and $5.9 million, respectively).
Redeemable Non-controlling Interest
Redeemable non-controlling interest related to the put/call agreement with one of the minority unitholders of VeriTread, under which the holder could put its remaining 21 % interest to the Company if certain performance targets were met.
In January 2026, the minority unitholder exercised its put option, and the Company acquired the remaining redeemable non-controlling interest for approximately $12.3 million, reducing the redeemable non-controlling interest to nil. Subsequently, the Company also acquired the remaining interest held by the other remaining non-controlling interest holder and now owns 100 % of VeriTread.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and Part II, Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplementary Data and Part II, Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, available on our website at https://investor.rbglobal.com, on EDGAR at www.sec.gov, or on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Refer to the Non-GAAP Measures section of this discussion and analysis for the definitions of, and reasons we use, certain non-GAAP measures and the reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.
Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts in the following tables are in millions, except per share amounts.
Overview
For an overview of our business, refer to Part I, Item 1: Business of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company completed the acquisitions of BigIron Auction Company ("BigIron") and Blackmon Auctions ("Blackmon") during the second quarter of 2026.
Effective the second quarter of 2026, we revised our sector presentation. Historically, we organized sector disclosures into (i) Automotive, (ii) Commercial, Construction and Transportation ("CC&T"), and (iii) Other. Under the revised presentation, the former CC&T sector and certain asset categories previously included in Other have been combined into Heavy Equipment & Transportation ("HE&T").
HE&T includes heavy equipment and machinery, commercial transportation assets, and equipment serving the agriculture, forestry and energy industries. Other primarily includes consumer items, real estate, and dismantled vehicle parts1. The composition of Automotive is unchanged and continues to include both salvage and non-salvage, or remarketed, passenger vehicles. Each sector includes both salvage and non-salvage transactions across all of our marketplace brands.
Prior-period GTV and lots sold information has been recast to conform to the current presentation. The recast relates solely to the classification of amounts between sectors and does not impact total consolidated GTV or lots sold.
Key Operating Metrics
We regularly review a number of metrics, including the following key operating metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, and make operating decisions. We believe these key operating metrics are useful to investors because management uses these metrics to assess the growth of our business and the effectiveness of our operational strategies.
Gross Transaction Value ("GTV"): Represents total proceeds from all items sold on our auctions and online marketplaces, third-party online marketplaces, private brokerage services and other disposition channels. GTV is not a measure of financial performance, liquidity, or revenue, and is not presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Inventory return: Inventory sales revenue less cost of inventory sold.
Inventory rate: Inventory return divided by inventory sales revenue.
Total lots sold: A single asset to be sold or a group of assets bundled for sale as one unit.

Financial Highlights
For the third quarter of 2026, as compared to the third quarter of 2025:
•GTV increased 20% to $4.7 billion.
•Revenue increased 17% to $1.3 billion.
◦Service revenue increased 10% to $927.9 million.
◦Inventory sales revenue increased 40% to $346.5 million.
•Net income increased 47% to $140.2 million.
•Net income available to common stockholders increased 59% to $128.7 million.
•Diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) available to common stockholders increased 63% to $0.70 per share.
•Diluted adjusted EPS available to common stockholders increased 11% to $1.03 per share.
•Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") increased 13% to $370.9 million.
•The Company repurchased and retired approximately 3.9 million common shares for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million. Since launching the Normal Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB") in the first quarter of 2026, the Company has repurchased and retired approximately 5.4 million common shares for an aggregate purchase price of $500.0 million. As of September 30, 2026, $500.0 million remained available under the NCIB.
Macroeconomic Conditions and Trends
Various macroeconomic conditions and trends, including inflationary pressures, actual or potential tariffs, and volatility in interest rates, affect our business, GTV, and operating costs. GTV may be further influenced by unit volume growth and changes in average selling prices, which in part are driven by prevailing market conditions.
Heavy Equipment & Transportation
Industry volumes are influenced by a broad range of factors, including macroeconomic conditions, demographic trends, government initiatives, infrastructure investment, ongoing investment in food and farm productivity, and commodity prices. Structural shifts in the market, such as the expansion of data centers, increased manufacturing activity, and re‑shoring efforts, also play a significant role in shaping demand. We continued to observe early indications of improving seller confidence in our regional business in select end markets, supported by stabilizing values for used equipment. Enterprise customer activity remained more subdued, as continued strength in large-scale construction projects contributed to lower equipment disposition.
Automotive
Industry unit volume growth is influenced by both the total number of accidents and the proportion of those accidents classified as total losses. Accident frequency is primarily driven by the number of vehicles in operation and aggregate miles traveled. A substantial percentage of these accidents are insured, and insurer involvement plays an important role in determining whether a vehicle is deemed a total loss. At the same time, underinsured accidents continue to create headwinds for industry volumes, as insufficient coverage may delay or reduce total‑loss designations and thereby limit the flow of vehicles into salvage channels.
Total‑loss determinations are shaped by several factors, including used vehicle pricing, vehicle age, design complexity, technology content, and repair costs. In the third quarter of 2026, the inflation differential between automotive repair costs and used vehicle prices remained positive. This dynamic supports a higher percentage of total-loss determinations relative to overall accidents, creating a favorable environment for salvage activity. While underinsurance has been a headwind to salvage volumes, improving insurance affordability trends suggest that these pressures are beginning to moderate.
Recent Developments
•On September 15, 2026, the Company announced that the Toronto Stock Exchange approved an amendment to the NCIB, increasing the maximum repurchases to the lesser of 14.2 million common shares and $1.0 billion. Refer to Financial Highlights for further information regarding repurchase activity and NCIB availability.
•On October 8, 2026, the Company announced executive leadership appointments and organizational updates to position the Company for its next phase of growth.

Transactional buyer revenue
Transactional buyer revenue increased 13% in the third quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher average selling prices and unit volume growth in Automotive, higher HE&T unit volumes, and contributions from BigIron and Smith Broughton. These increases were partially offset by a lower average buyer fee rate, reflecting contributions from acquired businesses with lower buyer fee rates.
Transactional buyer revenue increased 8% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to higher average selling prices and unit volume growth in Automotive, contributions from BigIron, J.M. Wood and Smith Broughton, and higher HE&T unit volumes. These increases were partially offset by a lower average buyer fee rate, reflecting contributions from acquired businesses with lower buyer fee rates.
Marketplace Services Revenue
Marketplace services revenue decreased 5% in the third quarter of 2026 and 3% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to the sale of Decision Dynamics, LLC ("DDI"), an electronic lien and title business on November 3, 2025.
Inventory Sales Revenue
Inventory sales revenue increased 40% in the third quarter of 2026 and 33% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to higher HE&T inventory sales resulting from increased unit volumes and favorable contract mix, as well as contributions from J.M. Wood, BigIron, and Smith Broughton. These increases were partially offset by lower Automotive inventory sales.
Costs of Services
Costs of services increased 7% in the third quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher Automotive towing costs resulting from higher volumes and fuel surcharges, contributions from BigIron and Smith Broughton, higher employee compensation costs, and higher Automotive property costs.
Costs of services increased 5% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to higher Automotive towing costs resulting from higher volumes and fuel surcharges, contributions from BigIron, Smith Broughton, and J.M. Wood, higher employee compensation costs, and higher transaction processing costs.
These increases were partially offset by a $5.4 million benefit recognized in the first quarter of 2026 upon the repeal of the Canadian Digital Services Tax ("DST"), representing the derecognition of DST previously recognized in costs of services.
Cost of Inventory Sold and Inventory Rate
Inventory rate increased from 4.7% to 5.2% in the third quarter of 2026 and increased from 5.6% to 6.7% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to favorable HE&T sector pricing resulting in higher inventory returns.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 3% in the third quarter of 2026, primarily due to the non-recurrence of severance, share-based compensation and consulting expenses incurred in the third quarter of 2025 in connection with leadership and organizational changes, and the non-recurrence of certain legal costs, including those associated with the departure of the former CEO. These decreases were partially offset by contributions from BigIron and Smith Broughton and higher short-term incentive compensation.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 1% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily for the reasons discussed above and a $5.8 million benefit recognized in the first quarter of 2026 upon the repeal of the DST, representing the derecognition of DST previously recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. These decreases were partially offset by higher travel, advertising and promotional costs associated with industry events, higher software license costs, and contributions from J.M. Wood.
Acquisition-Related and Integration Costs
Acquisition-related and integration costs increased 95% in the third quarter of 2026 and 121% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to transaction-related and post-acquisition compensation expense associated with the acquisitions of J.M. Wood, BigIron, and Blackmon.

Table of contents
Operating Income
Operating income increased 37% in the third quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher flow-through from service revenue, higher inventory return, and lower selling, general and administrative expenses. These increases were partially offset by higher depreciation, amortization, and acquisition-related and integration costs, as discussed above.
Operating income increased 23% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to the reasons discussed above and the non-recurrence of the loss on deconsolidation associated with the LKQ SYNETIQ transaction recognized in the second quarter of 2025.
Income Tax Expense and Effective Tax Rate
The effective tax rate increased from 14.8% to 24.8% in the third quarter of 2026 and increased from 20.5% to 23.1% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to a lower benefit from discrete items and a change in estimate regarding certain deductions recognized in the prior year.
Net Income Available To Common Stockholders
Net income available to common stockholders increased 59% in the third quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher operating income, an $18.2 million excise tax refund related to the 2023 acquisition of IAA, and the non-recurrence of the $5.0 million adjustment to redeemable non-controlling interest recognized in the third quarter of 2025. Of the excise tax refund, $16.8 million was recognized in other income (loss), net and $1.4 million was recognized in interest income. These increases were partially offset by higher income tax expense.
Net income available to common stockholders increased 36% in the first nine months of 2026, primarily due to the reasons discussed above and lower interest expense. These increases were partially offset by higher income tax expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe our principal sources of liquidity, which include cash flow from operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and unused capacity under our revolving credit facilities of $414.8 million (discussed in further detail below), are sufficient to fund current and planned operating activities. We continue to evaluate and pursue the most financially beneficial arrangements to fund future capital expenditures, which may include lease agreements or cash purchases.
Our liquidity is primarily affected by cash flow from operations, M&A activity, dividend payments, capital spending, common share repurchases, and repayments of debt. We are committed under various letters of credit and provide certain guarantees in the normal course of business.

Our ability to borrow under the Credit Agreement is subject to compliance with financial covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio. We were in compliance with all financial and other covenants applicable to our debt agreements at September 30, 2026. In the event of a sustained deterioration of global markets and economies, we expect the covenants pertaining to our leverage ratio would be the most restrictive to our ability to access funding under the Credit Agreement. We continually evaluate courses of action to maintain current levels of liquidity and compliance with our debt covenants.
If we were to consider further acquisitions to deliver on our strategic growth drivers, we may seek financing through the equity or debt markets. The issuance of additional equity securities may result in dilution to existing shareholders. Issuance of preferred equity securities could provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our common shares. Further, this additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all.

The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to unfavorable net changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by higher net income. The unfavorable net changes primarily reflected the timing and size of auctions, settlement of accrued liabilities, including amounts related to the final arbitration ruling involving the former CEO, and the timing of inventory purchases. These changes were partially offset by the timing of income tax installment payments and the non-recurrence of the deposit paid to the CRA in the first quarter of 2025.

Table of contents
The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the acquisitions of BigIron and Blackmon, partially offset by lower capital spending.
The decrease in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to higher borrowings under our Credit Agreement, including $300.0 million borrowed to fund the BigIron acquisition. This impact was partially offset by $500.0 million of common stock repurchases and retirements, higher repayments of finance lease and equipment financing obligations, and the first anniversary payment of deferred purchase consideration related to the J.M. Wood acquisition.
Dividend Information
All dividends that we pay are “eligible dividends” for Canadian income tax purposes, unless otherwise indicated. Refer to Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 13. Temporary Equity, Equity and Dividends for further information regarding dividends declared and paid during and subsequent to the three months ended September 30, 2026.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
At September 30, 2026, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies, judgments, estimates and assumptions from those disclosed in Part II, Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Non-GAAP Measures
We reference various non-GAAP measures throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These measures do not have a standardized meaning and are, therefore, unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted Net Income Available to Common Stockholders and Diluted Adjusted EPS Available to Common Stockholders
We believe that adjusted net income available to common stockholders provides useful information about the growth or decline of our net income available to common stockholders for the relevant financial period and eliminates the financial impact of adjusting items we do not consider to be part of our normal operating results. Diluted adjusted EPS available to common stockholders eliminates the financial impact of adjusting items from net income available to common stockholders that we do not consider to be part of our normal operating results. Please refer to page 31 for a summary of adjusting items.
Adjusted net income available to common stockholders is calculated as net income available to common stockholders excluding the effects of adjusting items that we do not consider to be part of our normal operating results, such as stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related and integration costs, restructuring costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, executive transition costs and certain other items.
Net income available to common stockholders is calculated as net income attributable to controlling interests, less cumulative dividends on Series A Senior Preferred Shares, allocated earnings to Series A Senior Preferred Shares, and adjustments to redeemable non-controlling interest.
Diluted adjusted EPS available to common stockholders is calculated by dividing adjusted net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of dilutive shares outstanding, except that it is computed based upon the lower of the two-class method or the if-converted method, which includes the effects of the assumed conversion of the Series A Senior Preferred Shares and the effect of shares issuable under the Company’s stock-based incentive plans, if such effect is dilutive.

Adjusted EBITDA
We believe adjusted EBITDA provides useful information and is a key performance measure because it facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period and it provides management with the ability to monitor its controllable incremental revenues and costs.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and income tax expense, and subtracting interest income from net income, as well as adding back the adjusting items as described on page 31.

Adjusted Net Debt and Adjusted Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA
We believe that comparing adjusted net debt to adjusted EBITDA on a trailing twelve-month basis, across different periods, provides useful information to investors about our operational performance and financial flexibility. This ratio indicates the period of time it would take to repay both our short- and long-term debt from operating earnings. We do not consider this to be a measure of liquidity, which is our ability to meet short-term obligations, but rather a measure of how well we manage our liquidity position. Measures of liquidity are noted under “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
Adjusted net debt is calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents from short and long-term debt. Adjusted net debt/adjusted EBITDA is calculated by dividing adjusted net debt by adjusted EBITDA.
The following table reconciles adjusted net debt to debt, adjusted EBITDA to net income, and adjusted net debt/ adjusted EBITDA to debt/ net income, respectively, which are the most directly comparable GAAP measures in, or calculated from, our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted Return and Adjusted Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC")
We believe that comparing adjusted ROIC on a trailing twelve-month basis across different periods provides useful information about the after-tax return generated by our investments. Adjusted ROIC is a measure used by management to determine how productively the Company uses its long-term capital to gauge investment decisions.
ROIC is calculated as reported return divided by average invested capital. Reported return is defined as net income attributable to controlling interests excluding the impact of net interest expense and tax effected at the Company’s adjusted annualized effective tax rate. Adjusted ROIC is calculated as adjusted return divided by average invested capital. Adjusted return is defined as reported return and adjusted for items that we do not consider to be part of our normal operating results and tax effected at the applicable tax rate.

There have been no material changes to our market risk during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 from those disclosed in Item 7A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act as of September 30, 2026. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that, as of that date, the disclosure controls are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated, communicated to management as appropriate, and recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.
The Company, including its CEO and CFO, does not expect that its internal controls and procedures will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
