RXO Announces Second-Quarter Results

Brokerage volume growth of 1% year over year driven by less-than-truckload volume growth of 45% Beginning to realize benefits from unified carrier coverage operations; Brokerage gross margin of 14.4% in the quarter Last Mile achieved 17% year-over-year stop growth, the fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth Strong quarterly cash performance with cash balance increasing sequentially CHARLOTTE, N.C., August 07, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RXO (NYSE: RXO) today reported its second-quarter financial results. RXO Chairman and CEO Drew Wilkerson said, "RXO executed well in the second quarter despite the prolonged soft freight market. Our Brokerage business outperformed the market, growing volume by 1% year-over-year driven by 45% growth in less-than-truckload volume. We're seeing early benefits from our newly combined carrier and coverage operations, and we delivered Brokerage gross margin of 14.4% in the quarter. Last Mile continued its impressive run of year-over-year growth, achieving 17% stop growth, the fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. Our cash performance in the quarter was strong, and we increased our cash balance sequentially from the first quarter." Wilkerson continued, "The actions we're taking now are yielding results in the short term and positioning us well for the long term. We're focused on growing profitably, and we're realizing the benefits of our increased scale. That scale, combined with our cutting-edge technology, is driving productivity improvements. RXO is uniquely positioned to deliver increased earnings power and free cash flow over the long term and across market cycles." Companywide Results RXO's revenue was $1.4 billion for the second quarter, compared to $930 million in the second quarter of 2024. Gross margin was 17.8%, compared to 19.0% in the second quarter of 2024. The company reported a second-quarter 2025 GAAP net loss of $9 million, compared to a net loss of $7 million in the second quarter of 2024. The second-quarter 2025 GAAP net loss included $10 million in transaction, integration, restructuring and other costs. Adjusted net income in the quarter was $7 million, compared to adjusted net income of $4 million in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA was $38 million, compared to $28 million in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 2.7%, compared to 3.0% in the second quarter of 2024. Transaction, integration, restructuring and other costs, and amortization of intangibles, impacted GAAP earnings per share by $0.09, net of tax. For the second quarter, RXO reported a GAAP diluted loss per share of $0.05. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.04. Brokerage Volume in RXO's Brokerage business, including the impact of the Coyote Logistics acquisition in both periods, increased by 1% year over year in the second quarter. Less-than-truckload volume increased by 45% but was partially offset by a 12% decline in full truckload volume. Brokerage gross margin was 14.4% in the second quarter. Complementary Services Managed Transportation again increased the synergy loads provided to Brokerage. Last Mile stops grew by 17% year-over-year. RXO's complementary services gross margin was 22.8% for the quarter. Third-Quarter Outlook RXO expects third-quarter 2025 adjusted EBITDA to be between $33 million and $43 million. In Brokerage, the company expects overall volume growth to be approximately flat year-over-year and gross margin to be between 13.5% and 15.0% in the third quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release to the most directly comparable measure under GAAP, which are set forth in the financial tables attached to this release. The non-GAAP financial measures in this release include: adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"); adjusted EBITDA margin; and adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted income (loss) per share ("adjusted EPS"). We believe that these adjusted financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not reflect, or are unrelated to, RXO's core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying businesses. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore our measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should only be used as supplemental measures of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted EPS include adjustments for transaction and integration costs, as well as restructuring costs and other adjustments as set forth in the attached tables. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating RXO's ongoing performance. We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin improve comparability from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest and financing expenses), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax impacts and other adjustments that management has determined do not reflect our core operating activities and thereby assist investors with assessing trends in our underlying business. We believe that adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted EPS improve the comparability of our operating results from period to period by removing the impact of certain costs that management has determined do not reflect our core operating activities, including amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other adjustments as set out in the attached tables, and thereby may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying business. With respect to our financial outlook for the third quarter of 2025 adjusted EBITDA, a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability and complexity of the reconciling items described above that we exclude from this non-GAAP measure. The variability of these items may have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results and, as a result, we are unable to prepare the forward-looking statement of income and statement of cash flows prepared in accordance with GAAP that would be required to produce such a reconciliation. Forward-looking Statements This release includes forward-looking statements, including statements relating to our outlook, integration with Coyote Logistics and cash synergies. 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," "predict," "should," "will," "expect," "project," "forecast," "goal," "outlook," "target," 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 us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors we believe 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 the risks discussed in our filings with the SEC and the following: the effect of the completion of the transaction to acquire Coyote Logistics on the parties' business relationships and business generally; competition and pricing pressures; economic conditions generally; fluctuations in fuel prices; increased carrier prices; severe weather, natural disasters, terrorist attacks or similar incidents that cause material disruptions to our operations or the operations of the third-party carriers and independent contractors with which we contract; our dependence on third-party carriers and independent contractors; labor disputes or organizing efforts affecting our workforce and those of our third-party carriers; legal and regulatory challenges to the status of the third-party carriers with which we contract, and their delivery workers, as independent contractors, rather than employees; our ability to develop and implement suitable information technology systems and prevent failures in or breaches of such systems; the impact of potential cyber-attacks and information technology or data security breaches; issues related to our intellectual property rights; our ability to access the capital markets and generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy our debt obligations; litigation that may adversely affect our business or reputation; increasingly stringent laws protecting the environment, including transitional risks relating to climate change, that impact our third-party carriers; governmental regulation and political conditions; our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; our ability to successfully implement our cost and revenue initiatives and other strategies; our ability to successfully manage our growth; our reliance on certain large customers for a significant portion of our revenue; damage to our reputation through unfavorable publicity; our failure to meet performance levels required by our contracts with our customers; the inability to achieve the level of revenue growth, cash generation, cost savings, improvement in profitability and margins, fiscal discipline, or strengthening of competitiveness and operations anticipated or targeted; a determination by the IRS that the distribution or certain related separation transactions should be treated as taxable transactions; and the impact of the separation on our businesses, operations and results. All forward-looking statements set forth in this release are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to or effects on us or our business or operations. Forward-looking statements set forth in this release speak only as of the date hereof, and we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, changes in expectations or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by law.

Last Mile Production, LLC Achieves 300% Production Growth and 70% Emissions Reduction with Enovate AI

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Last Mile Production, LLC, a forward-thinking independent oil and gas operator in West Texas, has reported transformative results following the deployment of Enovate AI's 3-Clicks Digital Strategy in collaboration with B4ECarbon™, the emissions management platform developed by Blockchain for Energy. The pilot initiative led to a 300% increase in oil production and a 70% reduction in emissions, while also enabling the issuance and capitalization of high-integrity carbon credits —all achieved beyond the thresholds of domestic and international compliance standards. At the heart of this success is Enovate AI's 3-Clicks Digital Strategy, a next-generation framework that combines automation, optimization, and decarbonization. By integrating cutting-edge technologies including AI, IoT, and blockchain, Last Mile has redefined how production and emissions data are captured, analyzed, and acted upon. The result: real-time operational insights, AI-driven leak detection, predictive asset management, and agile resource deployment. 'With the 3-Clicks strategy, we're not only optimizing production—we're maximizing asset value through tech-driven retirement planning, asset performance optimization, and monetizing environmental performance,' said Zach Wagner, Owner of Last Mile Production. Pushing beyond compliance, Last Mile implemented an advanced Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) strategy aligned with the OGMP Level 5 Gold Standard. This replaced manual, periodic inspections with continuous sensor-based monitoring—providing enhanced leak detection, faster mitigation, and inclusion of previously unregulated assets. Using B4ECarbon™, these verifiable emissions reductions translate into market-ready carbon offsets. 'We're setting a new standard in energy—where performance, sustainability, and compliance go hand in hand. Last Mile demonstrates what's possible when AI, IoT, and blockchain converge: smarter operations, responsible practices, and measurable impact. This is the future of energy,' said Camilo Mejia, CEO of Enovate AI. 'At B4ECarbon, our priority is enabling energy operators to turn emissions data into strategic advantage. By delivering verifiable, blockchain-backed emissions intelligence, we help organizations like Last Mile move beyond compliance—toward operational excellence, market credibility, and environmental integrity. This is how the energy industry builds trust, unlocks new value, and drives real transformation,' said Rebecca Hofmann, CEO of B4ECarbon LLC. Last Mile's pioneering efforts are sparking momentum among other West Texas operators, many of whom are now adopting the 3-Clicks strategy. Drawn by the promise of measurable ROI, sustainable operations, and elevated asset valuation, they are joining a growing movement toward digital, data-driven energy transformation.
