Gxo Logistics, Inc.
A logistics company that runs warehousing, distribution, and online-order fulfillment for big brands like Abercrombie & Fitch and Saks, GXO is the world's largest "pure-play" contract logistics provider. It was spun off from XPO Logistics in 2021, and its name stands for "game-changing opportunities" — a nod to its XPO roots.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other written reports and oral statements we make from time to time contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “will,” “expect,” “objective,” “projection,” “forecast,” “goal,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “effort,” “target,” “trajectory” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terms. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to a material difference include those discussed below and the risks discussed in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All forward-looking statements set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequence to or effects on the Company or its business or operations. The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2026 (the “2025 Form 10-K”), and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Business Overview GXO Logistics, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“GXO,” the “Company,” “our” or “we”), is the largest pure-play contract logistics provider in the world and a foremost innovator in the industry. We provide our customers with high-value-added warehousing and distribution, order fulfillment, e-commerce, reverse logistics, and other supply chain services differentiated by our ability to deliver technology-enabled, customized solutions at scale. Our customers rely on us to move their goods with high efficiency through their supply chains — from the moment goods arrive at our warehouses through fulfillment and distribution, and the management of returned products. Our customer base includes many blue-chip leaders across sectors with high growth and/or durable demand, with significant growth potential through customer outsourcing of logistics services. Our business model is asset-light and historically resilient in cycles, with high returns, strong free cash flow, and visibility into revenue and earnings. The vast majority of our contracts with customers are long-term, and our warehouse lease arrangements generally align with the length of those contracts. The Company has both fixed-price contracts (closed-book or hybrid) and cost-plus contracts (open-book). Most of our customer contracts contain both fixed and variable components. The fixed component is typically designed to cover warehouse, technology, and equipment costs, while the variable component is determined based on expected volumes and associated labor costs. Under fixed-price contracts, the Company agrees to perform the specified work for a pre-determined price. To the extent the Company’s actual costs vary from the estimates upon which the price was negotiated, the Company will generate more or less profit. Cost-plus contracts provide for the payment of allowable costs incurred during contract performance, plus a specified margin. 21 Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 compared with the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Three Months Ended June 30, (In millions, except percentages) 2026 2025 $ Change % Change Revenue $ 3,441 $ 3,299 $ 142 4 % Direct operating expense 2,933 2,813 120 4 % Selling, general and administrative expense 295 272 23 8 % Depreciation and amortization expense 117 110 7 6 % Transaction and integration costs 12 14 (2) (14) % Restructuring costs and other 5 2 3 n/m Regulatory matter — (1) 1 (100) % Net loss on divestiture of business 2 — 2 n/m Operating income 77 89 (12) (13) % Other income (expense), net 6 (10) 16 n/m Interest expense, net (35) (36) 1 (3) % Income before income taxes 48 43 5 12 % Income tax expense (21) (15) (6) 40 % Net income $ 27 $ 28 $ (1) (4) % n/m - not meaningful Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased by 4%, or $142 million, to $3.4 billion compared with $3.3 billion for the same period in 2025. The increase reflects growth in our business and $29 million of foreign currency movements for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Direct operating expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased by 4%, or $120 million, to $2.9 billion compared with $2.8 billion for the same period in 2025.

The increase in Direct operating expense reflects growth in our business and $24 million of foreign currency movements for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased by $23 million, to $295 million compared with $272 million for the same period in 2025. The increase reflects growth in our business. 22 Other income (expense), net increased from expense to income, due to higher pension income and foreign currency gain on foreign currency contracts in the current period.

The increase reflects growth in our business and $227 million of foreign currency movements for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Direct operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026, increased by 7%, or $370 million, to $5.7 billion compared with $5.4 billion for the same period in 2025. As a percentage of revenue, Direct operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was 85.2% compared with 85.6% for the same period in 2025. The increase in Direct operating expense reflects growth in our business and $191 million of foreign currency movements for the six months ended June 30, 2026. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded a net benefit of $30 million, primarily in rent expense, from a real estate transaction that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2025, which resulted in an early termination of a lease. The increase in Direct operating expense before recognizing the real estate transaction was in line with our business growth. Selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026, increased by $58 million, to $591 million compared with $533 million for the same period in 2025. The increase reflects growth in our business and $22 million of foreign currency movements for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Transaction and integration costs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, were $28 million and $36 million, respectively, and primarily related to the acquisition and integration of Wincanton. Restructuring costs and other costs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, were $8 million and $19 million, respectively. Restructuring costs primarily consisted of severance paid to exiting members of the Company’s leadership team and to individuals as part of an initiative to optimize corporate expenses. Regulatory matter for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $65 million and related to the deductibility of value-added tax payments we made to certain third-party service providers, which was settled in 2025. Net loss on divestiture of business for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was $23 million and related to a further reduction of the estimated fair value of certain grocery contracts. See Note 10. “Divestiture,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. 24 Other income (expense), net increased from expense to income, due to higher pension income and foreign currency gain on foreign currency contracts in the current period. Other income (expense), net was as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions, except percentages) 2026 2025 $ Change % Change Net periodic pension income $ 13 $ 9 $ 4 44 % Foreign currency gain (loss): Realized loss on foreign currency contracts — (4) 4 (100) % Unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency contracts 4 (18) 22 n/m Foreign currency transaction and remeasurement loss, net of foreign currency contracts on intercompany loans — (2) 2 (100) % Total foreign currency gain (loss) 4 (24) 28 n/m Other (1) — (1) n/m Other income (expense), net $ 16 $ (15) $ 31 n/m n/m - not meaningful Interest expense, net was as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions, except percentages) 2026 2025 $ Change % Change Debt and capital leases $ 87 $ 88 $ (1) (1) % Cross-currency swaps (16) (17) 1 (6) % Interest income (4) (3) (1) 33 % Interest expense, net $ 67 $ 68 $ (1) (1) % Income (loss) before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was income of $65 million compared with a loss of $50 million for the same period in 2025. The increase from loss to income reflects higher operating income, primarily due to growth in our business, including a net benefit of $30 million from a real estate transaction, and the non-recurrence of a regulatory matter in 2025, offset by a net loss related to the Wincanton Divestment and other income from higher pension income and foreign currency gains on foreign currency contracts. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was $33 million compared with $17 million for the same period in 2025. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was an expense on pre-tax income of 50.6%, compared to an expense on pre-tax loss of (35.3)% for the same period in 2025. The change to our effective tax rate was primarily driven by an increase in pre-tax income, an increase in unrecognized tax benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and a regulatory matter during the six months ended June 30, 2025. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our ability to fund our operations and anticipated capital needs is reliant upon the generation of cash from operations, supplemented as necessary by periodic utilization of our revolving credit facility and factoring programs. Our principal uses of cash in the future will be primarily to fund our operations, working capital needs, capital expenditures, repayment of borrowings and strategic business development transactions. The timing and magnitude of our new contract start-ups can vary and may positively or negatively impact our cash flows. We continually evaluate our liquidity requirements and capital structure in light of our operating needs, growth initiatives and capital resources. 25 As of June 30, 2026, we held cash and cash equivalents of $769 million and restricted cash of $4 million, and we had $793 million of borrowing capacity, net of letters of credit under our revolving credit facility. Upon maturity in July 2026, we repaid $400 million of unsecured notes using cash on hand. In 2025, our board of directors authorized and announced a repurchase plan for up to $500 million of our common stock (the “Repurchase Plan”). The Repurchase Plan permits shares of common stock to be repurchased from time to time in management’s discretion. 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. We expect to fund any remaining repurchases with existing cash on hand, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and/or other financing sources. In the second quarter of 2026, we repurchased $16 million of shares. As of June 30, 2026, $284 million remained authorized under the Repurchase Plan. During July 2026, we repurchased an additional $5 million of shares. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents on hand, our cash flows generated by our operations, amounts available under the revolving credit facility, the use of our factoring programs, and refinancing options available to us in the capital markets will provide sufficient liquidity to operate our business, including the repayment of the current portion of our debt, for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. For additional information regarding our cash requirements from lease obligations, indebtedness, and contractual obligations, see Note 4. “Leases,” Note 7. “Debt and Financing Arrangements,” and Note 14. “Commitments and Contingencies” in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Financial Condition The following table summarizes our asset and liability balances: June 30, December 31, (In millions, except percentages) 2026 2025 $ Change % Change Current assets $ 3,253 $ 3,288 $ (35) (1) % Long-term assets 9,118 8,974 144 2 % Current liabilities 4,121 3,875 246 6 % Long-term liabilities 5,228 5,372 (144) (3) % There were no material changes in our total assets and total liabilities from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026, other than the reclassification of $275 million of debt from long-term to current. Cash Flow Activity Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, are summarized as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions, except percentages) 2026 2025 $ Change % Change Net cash provided by operating activities $ 107 $ 32 $ 75 n/m Net cash used in investing activities (126) (123) (3) 2 % Net cash used in financing activities (62) (227) 165 (73) % Effect of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents (3) 40 (43) n/m Net decrease in cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents $ (84) $ (278) $ 194 (70) % n/m - not meaningful 26 Operating Activities Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, increased by $75 million compared with the same period in 2025. The increase was due to higher net income adjusted for the net effect of non-cash items and lower accounts payable cash outflow, partially offset by higher cash usage from accounts receivable and other assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, net cash provided by our factoring programs was $14 million and $78 million, respectively. Investing Activities Investing activities used $126 million and $123 million of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we utilized $130 million of cash to purchase property and equipment and received $4 million from the sale of property and equipment. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we utilized $125 million of cash to purchase property and equipment and received $2 million from the sale of property and equipment. Financing Activities Financing activities used $62 million and $227 million of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. The primary use of cash from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2026, was $25 million to repay finance lease obligations, $18 million to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Plan and to pay excise tax, $17 million in payments for employee taxes on net settlement of equity awards and $10 million net obligations under factoring arrangements, partially offset by $7 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and $1 million increase in bank overdraft. The primary use of cash from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $200 million used to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Plan, $55 million to repay debt, $24 million to repay finance lease obligations, $12 million net obligations under factoring arrangements and $7 million in payments for employee taxes on net settlement of equity awards, partially offset by $64 million increase in bank overdraft and $8 million of net borrowings under revolving credit facilities. 27 Guaranteed Securities: Summarized Financial Information The following information is provided to comply with Rule 13-01 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act of 1934 for the €500 million 3.750% notes due 2030 issued by GXO Logistics Capital B.V.
