Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of GXO Logistics, Inc. (“GXO” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of GXO and its majority-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has eliminated intercompany accounts and transactions.
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Certain amounts reported for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
The Company presents its operations as one reportable segment.
Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted
In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules designed to enhance public company disclosures related to the risks and impacts of climate-related matters. The new rules include disclosures relating to climate-related risks and risk management, as well as the board and management’s governance of such risks. In addition, the rules include requirements to disclose the financial effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions in the audited financial statements. Larger registrants will also be required to disclose information about greenhouse gas emissions, which will be subject to a phased-in assurance requirement. The disclosures are required for annual periods ending December 31, 2025. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the implementation of the new climate-related disclosure rules pending completion of judicial review of consolidated changes to the rules by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. In February 2025, the SEC requested that the court not schedule the matter for argument in order to allow time for the SEC to determine appropriate next steps. On March 27, 2025, the SEC voted to end its legal defense of the final rules, although judicial review remains ongoing. The Company continues to monitor developments and evaluate the potential impact of these rules on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which provides for expanded disclosures primarily related to income taxes paid and the rate reconciliation. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the disclosure requirements about income taxes paid and the rate reconciliation in its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This standard requires all public companies to disclose more detailed information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the disclosure requirements about specific expense categories in its Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. Segment Information
The Company is organized geographically into three operating segments: i) Americas and Asia-Pacific, ii) United Kingdom and Ireland, and iii) Continental Europe. The Company’s reporting unit results are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The CODM is our Chief Executive Officer, who assesses the Company’s performance and allocates resources.
The CODM evaluates the Company’s performance and allocates resources primarily based on adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs, litigation expense, and unrealized gain/loss on foreign currency contracts and other adjustments (“Adjusted EBITDA”). The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA to communicate performance targets to the segment managers, allocate resources to the segments, and to monitor segment performance. Additionally, the CODM considers the performance of this measure against planned and forecasted amounts to make investing and resource allocation decisions. The actual results are used in assessing performance of the Company and in establishing management’s compensation.
For disclosure purposes, we aggregate these three operating segments into one reportable segment.

The Wincanton Acquisition is subject to a review by the Competition and Markets Authority (the “CMA”) in the U.K., which is expected to be completed by June 25, 2025.
In connection with the Wincanton Acquisition, the Company incurred transaction costs of $ 21 million and $ 15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which were included in Transaction and integration costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(2) Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. Goodwill acquired was recorded in the U.K. and Ireland reporting unit and was primarily attributed to anticipated synergies. The Company does not expect the goodwill recognized in connection with the Wincanton Acquisition to be deductible for income tax purposes.
11
The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are considered preliminary and subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained and reviewed. The final allocation of the purchase price may differ from the preliminary allocation based on completion of the valuation. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to intangible assets, goodwill, other long-term assets, lease assets and liabilities, accrued expenses, and income taxes. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation within the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date.

8. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The levels of inputs used to measure fair value are:
• Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
• Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and
• Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, generally utilizing pricing models or other valuation techniques that reflect management’s judgment and estimates.
Assets and Liabilities
The Company bases its fair value estimates on market assumptions and available information. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current maturities of long-term debt approximated their fair values as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, due to their short-term nature.

10. Stockholders’ Equity
Stock Repurchase Plan
On February 18, 2025, the Company’s board of directors authorized and announced the repurchase of up to $ 500 million (the “Repurchase Plan”) of its common stock. The Repurchase Plan permits shares of common stock to be repurchased from time to time in management’s discretion, through a variety of methods, including a 10b5-1 trading plan, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing and number of shares of common stock repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, alternative investment opportunities and funding considerations. The Repurchase Plan does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
The repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock is recorded as treasury stock within equity and is accounted for under the cost method inclusive of share repurchase costs and excise tax on share repurchases in excess of issuances. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 2.8 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $ 111 million, including share repurchase costs and excise tax.

11. Employee Benefit Plans
Defined Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors defined benefit pension schemes in the U.K. (the “U.K. Retirement Plans”). The funded status of the U.K. Retirement Plans was recorded in Other long-term assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The U.K. Retirement Plans do not allow for new plan participants or additional benefit accruals.
The Company considers other international retirement plans to be immaterial to its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and they are excluded from the below disclosure.
Components of the net periodic benefit income recognized under the U.K. Retirement Plans were as follows:

(1) Defined contribution costs were primarily recorded in Direct operating expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
12. Restructuring Costs and Other
Restructuring costs primarily related to severance, including projects to optimize the Company’s finance, human resources and information technology functions, and closing certain corporate and administrative offices, which were not associated with customer attrition.
The following table summarizes changes in the restructuring liability, which is included in other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:
(In millions)

Payments ( 7 )
Balance as of March 31, 2025
$ 20
As of March 31, 2025, $ 16 million of the restructuring liability is expected to be paid within the next 12 months.
13. Income Taxes
Income tax for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was a $ 2 million income tax expense compared with a $ 10 million income tax benefit for the same period in 2024. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months
17
ended March 31, 2025, was an expense on a pre-tax loss of ( 2.7 )%, compared to a benefit on a pre-tax loss of 21.1 % for the same period in 2024. The change to the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily driven by non-deductible transaction costs and a non-deductible regulatory matter.
In 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) issued administrative guidance for the Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion rules (“Pillar Two”), which generally imposes a 15% global minimum tax on multinational companies. Many Pillar Two rules are effective for fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2024, with other aspects to be effective from 2025. The Company has reviewed its global legal entity structure and considered all the jurisdictions for which the Company is potentially subject to Pillar Two. The Company has determined that most of its entities are not subject to Pillar Two, because these jurisdictions either are subject to tax in excess of 15%, can apply a safe-harbor, or the entities are organized in jurisdictions that have not (yet) fully enacted Pillar Two. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, Pillar Two did not have a material impact on the Company’s income tax expense/benefit. Pillar Two did not have a significant impact on the Company’s fiscal 2024 and the Company currently does not expect it to have a significant impact on its fiscal 2025 income tax expense.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved, and will continue to be involved, in numerous legal proceedings arising from the conduct of its business. These proceedings may include personal injury claims arising from the transportation and handling of goods, contractual disputes and employment-related claims, including alleged violations of wage and hour laws.
The Company establishes accruals for specific legal proceedings when it is considered probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company reviews and adjusts accruals for loss contingencies quarterly and as additional information becomes available. If a loss is not both probable and reasonably estimable, or if an exposure to a loss exists in excess of the amount accrued, the Company assesses whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred. If there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional loss, may have been incurred, the Company discloses the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss if it is material and an estimate can be made, or discloses that such an estimate cannot be made. The determination as to whether a loss can reasonably be considered to be possible or probable is based on management’s assessment, together with legal counsel, regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter.
Management of the Company believes that it has adequately accrued for the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable. Management of the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any matters to which the Company is presently a party will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Legal costs related to these matters are expensed as they are incurred.
The Company carries liability and excess umbrella insurance policies that are deemed sufficient to cover potential legal claims arising in the normal course of conducting its operations. In the event the Company is required to satisfy a legal claim outside the scope of the coverage provided by insurance, its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be negatively impacted.
On July 2, 2024, the Italian authorities launched an investigation into the deductibility of value-added tax payments by the Company to certain third-party service providers. The challenged amount is € 84 million ($ 91 million as of March 31, 2025). As of March 31, 2025, the Company deposited € 84 million ($ 91 million as of March 31, 2025) into a designated bank account in connection with the ongoing investigation. This amount is classified as restricted cash under “Current Assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In April 2025, the Company made a partial payment of € 15 million ($ 17 million) to the Italian authorities funded from the designated bank account reducing the restricted cash balance. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company accrued € 61 million ($ 66 million) of expense associated with this contingency which is recorded within the Regulatory matter and litigation expense line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the probable and reasonably
18
estimable loss. The Company expects to reach a settlement agreement in 2025 consistent with the amount recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
