Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Organization
RXO, Inc. (“RXO”, the “Company” or “we”) is a brokered transportation platform defined by cutting-edge technology and an asset-light business model. The largest component is our core truck brokerage business. Our operations also include asset-light managed transportation and last mile services, which complement our truck brokerage business. We present our operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements as one reportable segment.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared on a basis that is substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Form 10-K”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the 2025 Form 10-K.
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RXO, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In management’s opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and are necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.
Significant Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the 2025 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as of March 31, 2026.
Restricted Cash
As of March 31, 2026, our restricted cash included in Other current assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $ 1 million.
Adoption of New Accounting Standard
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-09”), which creates a new optional practical expedient related to the estimation of future expected credit losses on accounts receivable. If elected, this expedient removes the requirement, when estimating expected credit losses, to consider changes in forecasted macroeconomic conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates or gross domestic product growth. Instead, companies electing the practical expedient may assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset. The amendments in ASU 2025-05 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2026, on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Effective
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 (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 seeks to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods after December 15, 2027 on either a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.
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 (“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 improves the operability of the accounting for internal-use software by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. This standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”), which clarifies the guidance in Topic 270 to improve the consistency of interim financial reporting. ASU 2025-11 provides a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures and introduces a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the new guidance.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted into law H.R.1, commonly referred to as “The One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (the “Act”). The Act contains several key tax provisions impacting businesses, including the permanent reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation for qualified property and the restoration of immediate expensing of domestic research and experimental expenditures. The Act also modifies the business interest deduction limitation as well as several international tax provisions. The legislation has various effective dates of implementation from 2025 through 2027. Certain provisions of the Act that were in effect for fiscal 2025 were reflected in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Act did not have any material impact on our effective tax rate or cash flow for the first quarter of 2026.

4. Revenue Recognition
Disaggregation of Revenues
We disaggregate our revenue by geographic area, service offering and industry sector. The majority of our revenue, based on sales office location, is generated in the U.S. Approximately 7 % and 6 % of our revenues were generated outside the U.S. (primarily in Canada, Mexico, Europe and Asia) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Our revenue disaggregated by service offering is as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions) 2026 2025
Truck brokerage $ 1,097 $ 1,067

Total $ 1,425 $ 1,433
Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent firm contracts for which services have not been performed and future revenue recognition is expected. As permitted in determining the remaining performance obligation, we omit obligations that: (i) have original expected durations of one year or less or (ii) contain variable consideration. As of March 31, 2026, the fixed consideration component of our remaining performance obligation was approximately $ 55 million, and we expect approximately 93 % of that amount to be recognized over the next four years and the remainder thereafter. We estimate remaining performance obligations at a point in time and actual amounts may differ from these estimates due to contract revisions or terminations.
5. Restructuring Charges
We engage in restructuring actions as part of our ongoing efforts to best use our resources and infrastructure. These actions generally include severance and impairment of real estate and equipment operating lease assets, and are intended to improve our efficiency and profitability going forward.
The following is a roll-forward of the Company’s restructuring activity:

Revolving Credit Facilities
On February 5, 2026 we entered into an asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) and used p roceeds from loans under the ABL Facility to repay and terminate our previous revolving credit agreement (the “Revolver”). The ABL Facility matures on February 5, 2031.
The aggregate commitment of all lenders under the ABL Facility is $ 450 million , with the option to request an increase in the revolving commitment by up to the greater of $ 200 million and the amount, if positive, by which the borrowing base exceeds the aggregate commitments of the lenders, not to exceed 5 % of the aggregate amount of the commitments of the lenders at such time. A portion of the ABL Facility, not to exceed $ 100 million , is available for the issuance of letters of credit. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on any unused commitment, based on pricing levels set forth in the agreement.
The ABL Facility is secured by a first priority perfected security interest (subject to customary exceptions) in all assets of the credit parties, whether consisting of personal, tangible or intangible property; provided that all interests in fee-owned real property and all leasehold interests in real property are excluded. Amounts available to be drawn under the ABL Facility are determined by calculating the applicable borrowing base, which is based upon applicable percentages of the values of eligible investment grade accounts receivable, eligible non-investment grade accounts receivable, eligible unbilled accounts receivable, and eligible liquid assets, less reserves.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $ 365 million available under the ABL Facility, net of $ 35 million of outstanding borrowings and $ 50 million of outstanding letters of credit.
Outstanding amounts under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s election: (i) a base rate plus an applicable margin or (ii) an adjusted term SOFR plus an applicable margin; interest is payable monthly or quarterly, at the Company’s election. The effective interest rate on the ABL Facility was 4.92 % as of March 31, 2026.
Subject to customary exceptions and restrictions, the Company may voluntarily prepay outstanding amounts under the ABL Facility at any time without premium or penalty. Any voluntary prepayments made will not reduce commitments under the ABL Facility. The ABL Facility contains mandatory prepayment provisions which require prepayment of amounts outstanding under the ABL Facility (i) upon the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of any non-permitted indebtedness and (ii) when there is an availability shortfall.
11
Table of Contents
The ABL Facility contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and financial, affirmative and negative covenants for facilities of this type, including, but not limited to, financial covenants relating to a fixed charge coverage ratio, a minimum liquidity requirement and a minimum excess availability requirement, and restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments and acquisitions, asset dispositions, specified agreements, restricted payments and prepayment of certain indebtedness. At March 31, 2026 , the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the ABL Facility.
We also have a non-U.S. revolving credit facility with a maximum commitment of approximately $ 17 million. This facility has a one-year term and we had $ 15 million outstanding as of March 31, 2026 classified as short-term debt.
2027 Notes
On February 20, 2026 (the “Redemption Date”), the Company completed the redemption (the “Redemption”) of all of its outstanding 7.50 % Notes due 2027 (the “ 2027 Notes” or the “ 7.50 % Notes due 2027 ”). The 2027 Notes were redeemed using a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2031 Notes at a redemption price of 101.875 % of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. We recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $ 11 million in the first quarter of 2026 due to the Redemption.
2031 Notes
On February 20, 2026 , we completed an offering of $ 400 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes (the “ 2031 Notes” or the “ 6.375 % Notes due 2031 ”). The 2031 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.375 % per annum payable semiannually in cash in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning November 15, 2026 , and mature on May 15, 2031 , unless repurchased or redeemed earlier, if applicable. The 2031 Notes were issued at an issue price of 100.00 % of par. The effective interest rate on the 2031 Notes was 6.71 % as of March 31, 2026 .
We may redeem the 2031 Notes in whole or in part on or after May 15, 2028, at redemption prices of 103.188 % or 101.594 % of the principal amount thereof if the redemption occurs during the 12-month period beginning on May 15, 2028 or 2029, respectively, and a redemption price of 100 % of the principal amount thereof if the redemption occurs on or after May 15, 2030, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. Prior to May 15, 2028, the Company may redeem up to 40 % of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings, at a price equal to 106.375 % of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, provided that at least 50 % of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) remains outstanding after the redemption. Prior to May 15, 2028, the Company also may redeem the 2031 Notes in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100.00 % of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date plus a “make-whole” premium.
The 2031 Notes are guaranteed by each of our direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries). The 2031 Notes and its guarantees are unsecured, senior indebtedness for us and our guarantors. The 2031 Notes contain covenants customary for debt securities of this nature. At March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the 2031 Notes.
7. Fair Value Measurements
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.
12
Table of Contents
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 short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt approximated their fair values as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, due to their short-term nature and/or being receivable or payable on demand.
Debt
The fair value of our debt and classification in the fair value hierarchy is as follows:
(In millions) Level March 31, 2026 December 31, 2025
Revolver 3 $ — $ 35
ABL Facility 3 35 —
7.50 % Notes due 2027
1 — 363
6.375 % Notes due 2031
1 385 —
We valued Level 1 debt using quoted prices in active markets. We valued Level 3 debt using unobservable inputs, which reflect the Company’s best estimate of what hypothetical market participants would use to determine a transaction price for the asset or liability at the reporting date.
8. Earnings per Share
The computations of basic and diluted loss per share are as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31,
(Dollars in millions, shares in thousands, except per share data) 2026 2025
Net loss $ ( 36 ) $ ( 31 )
Basic weighted-average common shares 169,104 168,023
Dilutive effect of stock-based awards — —
Diluted weighted-average common shares
169,104 168,023
Basic loss per share $ ( 0.21 ) $ ( 0.18 )
Diluted loss per share $ ( 0.21 ) $ ( 0.18 )
Antidilutive shares excluded from diluted weighted-average common shares 1,458 1,512
Approximately 1.3 million share-based awards with market conditions were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation and were not considered anti-dilutive because the market conditions were not satisfied as of March 31, 2026 .
9. Commitments and Contingencies
We are involved, and will continue to be involved, in numerous proceedings arising out of the conduct of our business. These proceedings may include claims for property damage or personal injury incurred in connection with the transportation of freight, environmental liability, commercial disputes, and employment-related claims, including claims involving asserted breaches of employee restrictive covenants. These matters also include several class action and collective action cases involving claims that the contract carriers with which we contract for performance of delivery services, or their delivery workers, should be treated as employees, rather than independent contractors (“misclassification claims”). Plaintiffs in such cases may seek substantial monetary damages (including claims for unpaid wages, overtime, unreimbursed business expenses, deductions from wages, penalties and other items), injunctive relief, or both.

Table of Contents
We establish 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. If a loss is not both probable and reasonably estimable, or if an exposure to loss exists in excess of the amount accrued, we assess 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, we disclose the estimate of the possible loss or range of loss if it is material and an estimate can be made, or disclose 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 our assessment, together with legal counsel, regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter.
We believe that we have adequately accrued for the potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any matters to which we are presently a party will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. 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 our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. Legal costs incurred related to these matters are expensed as incurred.
We carry liability and excess umbrella insurance policies that we deem sufficient to cover potential legal claims arising in the normal course of conducting our operations as a transportation company. The liability and excess umbrella insurance policies generally do not cover the misclassification claims described in this note. In the event we are required to satisfy a legal claim outside the scope of the coverage provided by insurance, our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition could be negatively impacted.
Our last mile subsidiary is involved in several class action and collective action cases involving misclassification claims. The misclassification claims relate solely to our last mile business, which operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of XPO, Inc. (“XPO”) until the spin-off of RXO was completed.
Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement between XPO and RXO, the liabilities of XPO’s last mile subsidiary, including legal liabilities, if any, related to the misclassification claims, were spun-off as part of RXO as of November 1, 2022. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, RXO has agreed to indemnify XPO for certain matters relating to RXO, including indemnifying XPO from and against any liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses incurred by XPO arising out of or resulting from the misclassification claims.
In one of the misclassification claims, Gonzalez v. RXO Last Mile, Inc. , we reached an agreement to settle the matter for an immaterial amount without admitting any liability. We have accrued the full amount of the settlement.
We continue to believe the other misclassification claims are without merit and we intend to defend the Company vigorously in these matters. We do not believe that the incurrence of a loss is probable at this time and, accordingly, we have not accrued for any losses in these matters. Further, the plaintiffs have not quantified damages sought in the misclassification claims and we are unable at this time to determine the amount of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, that we may incur as a result of the other misclassification claims.
