1. BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
Description of Business
Fortrea Holdings Inc. (“Fortrea” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation incorporated on January 31, 2023, is a leading global contract research organization (“CRO”) providing biopharmaceutical product and medical device development solutions to pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device customers. The Company offers customers highly flexible delivery models that include Full Service, Functional Service Provider, and Hybrid Service structures. The Company has a rich history of providing clinical development services for more than 30 years across more than 20 therapeutic areas. The Company leverages its global scale, clinical data insights, scientific and therapeutic expertise, technology innovation, industry network and decades of experience as a standalone company and as a business unit prior to its spin-off from Labcorp Holdings Inc. to deliver tailored solutions to its customers. With what the Company believes is a distinctive market offering, Fortrea meets growing global demand for clinical development services. The Company has established access to all key markets worldwide through a strategic footprint of primary office locations in five countries (the United States, the United Kingdom, China, India and Japan) with field operations in other jurisdictions worldwide.
On March 9, 2024, the Company, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Fortrea Inc., entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Endeavor Buyer LLC, an affiliate of Arsenal Capital Partners, to sell the operations of Fortrea Patient Access Inc. and its subsidiaries and Endpoint Clinical, Inc. and its subsidiaries; collectively referred to as the Enabling Services Segment (the “Transaction”). The final adjusted purchase price for the Transaction was $ 340.0 , subject to customary purchase price adjustments, with $ 295.0 paid at closing and $ 45.0 to be paid upon achievement of certain transition-related milestones. The Transaction closed during the second quarter of 2024. The first milestone payment in the amount of $ 20.0 was received in the first quarter of 2025. The second and final milestone payment in the amount of $ 25.0 was received in the third quarter of 2025.
Reportable Segment
The Company manages its business in one reportable segment, Clinical Services, which provides phase I-IV clinical trials, including clinical pharmacology and comprehensive clinical development capabilities. The Company’s chief operating decision maker allocates resources and assesses performance for the Clinical Services segment. For further financial information about the segment, see Note 13, “Business Segment Information”.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, cash flows, and financial position have been made. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated and combined financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and unbilled services.
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various major financial institutions. These financial institutions are generally highly rated and geographically dispersed. The Company evaluates the relative credit standing of these financial institutions and has not sustained credit losses from instruments held at financial institutions.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)
Substantially all of the Company’s accounts receivable and unbilled services are with companies in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries. As of June 30, 2026, one pharmaceutical customer accounted for approximately 18.2 % of the Company's combined gross accounts receivable and unbilled services. As of December 31, 2025, one pharmaceutical customer accounted for approximately 18.3 % of the Company's combined gross accounts receivable and unbilled services. Additionally, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, one customer accounted for approximately 16.8 % of revenues, and for the six months ended June 30, 2026, one customer accounted for approximately 17.0 % of revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, one customer accounted for 19.5 % of revenues, and for the six months ended June 30, 2025, one customer accounted for approximately 17.5 % of revenues. Concentrations of credit risk are mitigated due to the number of the Company’s customers as well as their dispersion across many different geographic regions. Additionally, the Company applies assumptions and judgments, including historical collection experience and reasonable and supportable forecasts, for assessing collectability and determining allowances for doubtful accounts.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The new guidance requires disclosure of certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The disclosures required under the guidance can be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statement disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The new guidance simplifies the accounting for internally developed software by replacing the existing phase-based capitalization model with a principles-based approach that focuses on management’s authorization and the probability of project completion. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities may apply the guidance using a prospective, retrospective, or modified transition approach, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. This ASU establishes guidance on the recognition, measurement, and presentation of government grants received by business entities. The guidance is intended to improve consistency and transparency by providing a comprehensive accounting framework for government grants under U.S. GAAP. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statements and disclosures.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)
The rollforward for the allowance for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 is as follows:
Allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2025 $ 41.2
Credit loss expense 4.0
Write-offs ( 7.2 )
Allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2026 $ 38.0
Performance Obligations Under Long-Term Contracts
As of June 30, 2026, approximately $ 4,442.5 of revenues are expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize approximately 26 % of the existing performance obligations as of June 30, 2026 as revenue over the next 12 months and the remaining balance thereafter. The Company’s long-term contracts generally range from one to eight years . The customer contract transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations differs from backlog in that it does not include wholly unperformed contracts under which the customer has a unilateral right to cancel the arrangement.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, there were reductions of approximately $ 2 and $ 3 in revenue related to performance obligations partially satisfied in previous periods. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the change was associated with changes in estimated effort to complete customer contract obligations. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the majority of the change was associated with changes in estimated effort to complete customer contract obligations of $( 7 ), partially offset by changes in scope or price of $ 4 .
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, there were reductions of approximately $ 1 and $ 16 in revenue related to performance obligations partially satisfied in previous periods. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the majority of the change was associated with changes in estimated effort to complete customer contract obligations of $( 3 ), partially offset by changes in scope or price of $ 2 . For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the majority of the change was associated with changes in scope or price of $( 11 ) and a smaller portion related to changes in estimated effort to complete customer contract obligations of $( 5 ).
The Company applies the practical expedient and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations where (i) the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less or (ii) when the Company recognizes revenue from the satisfaction of the performance obligation in accordance with the right-to-invoice practical expedient.
Receivables Securitization Program
On May 6, 2024, the Company entered into a three-year $ 300.0 accounts receivable securitization program (the “Receivables Facility”). Under this program, Fortrea Inc. conveys receivable balances to a wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity (“SPE”), which in turn, may sell receivables to a third-party financial institution in exchange for cash. The facility is without recourse to the Company or any subsidiaries of the Company, other than with respect to limited indemnity obligations of Fortrea Inc., in respect to the character of the receivables sold and as to the performance of its duties as servicer and a limited performance guaranty by the Company. All unsold accounts receivable held by the SPE are pledged as collateral to secure the collectability of the sold receivables.
On February 24, 2026, the Company amended its Receivables Facility, which had been scheduled to terminate on May 6, 2027. The amended Receivables Facility is scheduled to terminate on February 23, 2029, unless terminated earlier pursuant to its terms.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had sold $ 300.0 of receivables, which were derecognized from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as described in the Accounts Receivable, Unbilled Services and Unearned Revenue section above. Total costs associated with the sale were $ 4.1 and $ 8.8 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and, $ 4.5 and $ 8.9 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and are included within selling, general and administrative costs in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

3. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
In the fourth quarters of 2024 and 2025, the Company approved restructuring plans to streamline its operations and eliminate redundant positions. These plans, which relate primarily to severance benefits, were accounted for under ASC 712, Compensation - Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits . Actions under these restructuring plans are expected to continue through 2026.
The following represents the Company’s restructuring accrual activities for the periods indicated:

The non-current portion of the restructuring liabilities as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $ 0.5 and $ — , respectively.
4. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings including the impact of dilutive adjustments by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potentially dilutive shares, as if they had been issued at the earlier of the date of issuance or the beginning of the period presented. Potentially dilutive common shares result primarily from the Company’s outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and performance stock units (“PSUs”).

Diluted earnings per share represent the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. These potential shares include dilutive stock options and unissued restricted stock awards. Potential common shares are also considered antidilutive in the event of a net loss from operations. There were no dilutive common shares for any period presented as the inclusion would be antidilutive.
The following table summarizes the potential common shares not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their impact would have been antidilutive:

5. GOODWILL
During the first and second quarters of 2025, due to sustained declines in the Company’s share price and uncertainties in global macroeconomic conditions, the Company determined that indicators of impairment existed. As a result, the Company performed interim impairment tests as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025.
Based upon the results of the quantitative assessment as of March 31, 2025, the Company concluded that the fair value of the Clinical Development reporting unit was less than its carrying value and recorded a goodwill impairment of $ 488.8 .
Based upon the results of the quantitative assessment as of June 30, 2025, the Company concluded that the fair value of the Clinical Development reporting unit was less than its carrying value and recorded a goodwill impairment of $ 309.1 .
For the goodwill impairment tests, the fair values of the Clinical Development and Clinical Pharmacology reporting units were computed using both income-based and market-based valuation methods. The income-based approach is based on the reporting unit's forecasted future cash flows that are discounted to the present value using the reporting unit's weighted average cost of capital. The discount rate used reflects the risks inherent in realizing the forecasted cash flows and considers the risk-free rate of return on long-term treasury securities, the risk premium associated with investing in equity securities of comparable companies, the beta obtained from the comparable companies and the cost of debt for investment grade issuers. The discount rate used for the Clinical Development reporting unit quantitative assessments as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025 was 10.0 % and 10.5 %, respectively. The increase in the discount rate was primarily the result of macroeconomic and market factors and impacted the impairment during the second quarter of 2025 by approximately $ 60 .
For the market-based approach, the Company utilizes a number of factors such as publicly available information regarding the market capitalization of the Company as well as operating results, business plans, market multiples, and present value techniques. Based upon the range of estimated values developed from the income and market-based methods, the Company determines the estimated fair value for the reporting unit. The resulting estimated fair values of the combined reporting units are reconciled to the Company's market capitalization including an estimated implied control premium. The share price used to calculate the Company’s market capitalization was $ 7.55 per share and $ 4.94 per share as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company is involved from time to time in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. These matters may include commercial and contract disputes, employee-related matters, and professional liability claims. In accordance with FASB ASC 450, Contingencies , the Company establishes reserves for claims and legal actions when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. When loss contingencies are not both probable and estimable, the Company does not establish reserves. The outcomes of such proceedings are inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. When the Company determines that it has a meritorious defense to any claims asserted, the Company defends itself vigorously; however the Company also considers and enters into discussions regarding settlement of disputes, and may enter into settlement agreements, if in management’s judgment, it is in the best interest of the Company to do so. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded legal expenses of $ — and $ 1.9 related to the settlement of legal matters initiated prior to the Spin. Legal settlement expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 we re not significant. The Company does not believe that any liabilities resulting from claims and legal actions will have a material effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
On July 6, 2026, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Clario Holdings, Inc., and eResearch Technology, Inc. d/b/a Clario (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed an action in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against Jason Knoblauch and the Company challenging the Company’s appointment of Mr. Knoblauch as Chief Financial Officer. Plaintiffs allege that Mr. Knoblauch’s employment by the Company violates restrictive covenants and that he retained confidential information belonging to Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs sought expedited proceedings and temporary and preliminary injunctive relief. On July 25, 2026, the Court entered a temporary restraining order temporarily prohibiting Mr. Knoblauch from performing services for the Company pending further order of the Court. The Company disagrees with Plaintiffs’ allegations but is complying with the Court’s order and intends to defend the action. In light of the order, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed board member David R. Smith, to serve as interim Chief Financial Officer and principal financial officer, effective July 27, 2026. A hearing on Plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction is expected to be scheduled for early September.
On June 2, 2025, a purported shareholder class action complaint captioned Lucas Deslande v. Fortrea Holdings Inc., et al., No 1:25-cv-04630 was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, naming the Company and certain of its current and former officers as defendants. The complaint alleges that defendants made omissions and misrepresentations to investors that they claim violated certain securities laws. The Construction Industry Laborers Pension Fund and City of Pontiac Reestablished General Employees Retirement System were appointed as lead plaintiffs on September 3, 2025, and the lead plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on November 10, 2025. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on January 28, 2026. Lead plaintiffs filed their opposition to the Company’s motion to dismiss on March 19, 2026. The Company filed its reply to the lead plaintiffs’ opposition to the Company’s motion to dismiss on April 9, 2026. The Company believes it has valid defenses to the claims alleged and intends to vigorously defend itself, but there is no guarantee that the Company will prevail. The case is at a very early stage and the Company is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with this action.
The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all statutes, regulations, and other requirements applicable to its drug development support services. The drug development industry is, however, subject to extensive regulation, and the courts have not interpreted many of the applicable statutes and regulations. Therefore, the applicable statutes and regulations could be interpreted or applied by a prosecutorial, regulatory, or judicial authority in a manner that would adversely affect the Company. Potential sanctions for violation of these statutes and regulations include significant civil and criminal penalties, fines, the loss of various licenses, certificates and authorizations, and/or additional liabilities from third-party claims.
Fortrea obtains insurance coverage for certain catastrophic exposures as well as those risks required to be insured by law or contract. The Company is covered by those policies but is responsible for the uninsured portion of losses related primarily to general, professional and vehicle liability, certain medical costs and workers’ compensation. The self-insured retentions are on a per-occurrence basis without any aggregate annual limit. Provisions for losses expected under these programs are recorded based upon the Company’s estimates of the aggregated liability of claims incurred.

13. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The following table is a summary of segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The segment information is based upon the way the management of the Company organizes segments within an enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Financial information is reported on the basis that it is used internally by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Fortrea Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the CODM.
The CODM allocates resources and assesses performance based on the underlying businesses which determines the Company's operating segments. When determining the reportable segments, the Company aggregated operating segments based on their similar economic and operating characteristics. The Company reports its business in one reportable segment: Clinical Services, which provides phase I-IV clinical trials, including clinical pharmacology and comprehensive clinical development capabilities. The measure of segment profit or loss that the CODM uses to evaluate performance and allocate resources is segment operating income. The CODM uses segment operating income to monitor budget versus actual results and to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance.
In accordance with ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , significant expenses included within segment operating income have been assessed and disclosed in the table below. Corporate costs not included in the segment operating income measure provided to the CODM are included within “Corporate costs not included in segment operating income.” Segment asset information is not presented because it is not used by the CODM at the segment level.
