RXO Announces Fourth-Quarter Results

Full-truckload market tightened significantly, squeezing Brokerage gross margin
Brokerage late-stage pipeline increased by more than 50% year-over-year
Managed Transportation awarded more than $200 million of freight under management in the quarter
Finalized $450 million asset-based lending facility, which provides more flexibility through all market cycles

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — February 6, 2026 — RXO (NYSE: RXO) today reported its fourth-quarter financial results.
RXO Chairman and CEO Drew Wilkerson said, “In the fourth quarter, tightening in the freight market accelerated, driven by continued reductions in truckload capacity. This impacted our buy rates and squeezed our Brokerage gross margin. While demand remained soft, we have significant sales momentum. The Brokerage late-stage pipeline for new business grew by more than 50% year-over-year, and our Managed Transportation business was awarded more than $200 million of freight under management in the fourth quarter.”
Wilkerson continued, “We remain focused on profitable growth and long-term performance. Our larger scale, asset-light model and improving cost structure drive strong cash flow. Furthermore, our technology continues to advance through transformational AI, and our new $450 million lending facility ensures we’ll have flexibility across all market cycles. RXO is well positioned for the long term.”
Companywide Results
RXO’s revenue was $1.5 billion for the fourth quarter, compared to $1.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. Gross margin was 14.8%, compared to 15.5% in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The company reported a fourth-quarter 2025 GAAP net loss of $46 million, compared to a net loss of $25 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. For the fourth quarter, RXO reported a GAAP diluted loss per share of $0.27.
The fourth-quarter 2025 GAAP net loss included $31 million in transaction, integration, restructuring and other costs, part of which was a $12 million goodwill impairment related to the restructuring of our ground and air express service offering within our Managed Transportation business. These, including amortization of intangibles, impacted GAAP earnings per share by $0.20, net of tax. Adjusted net loss in the quarter was $11 million, compared to adjusted net income of $10 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted diluted loss per share was $0.07.
Adjusted EBITDA was $17 million, compared to $42 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 1.2%, compared to 2.5% in the fourth quarter of 2024.

RXO 4Q 2025 Earnings Press Release | 2


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 first quarter of 2026 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. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements.

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.
