RB Global Reports First Quarter 2025 Results

WESTCHESTER, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- RB Global, Inc. (NYSE & TSX: RBA, the 鈥淐ompany鈥�, 鈥淩B Global鈥�, 鈥渨e鈥�, 鈥渦s鈥�, 鈥渢heir鈥�, or 鈥渙ur鈥�) reported the following results for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

"I want to recognize our teammates' dedication to our partners and customers, particularly in this rapidly evolving macroeconomic environment." said Jim Kessler, CEO of RB Global. "We have not changed our approach and are focused on factors we control to help ensure we are consistently working to overdeliver on our commitments."

"We remain committed to advancing our long-term growth strategy by investing in key initiatives that we expect to create lasting value," said Eric J. Guerin, Chief Financial Officer. "Concurrently, we are exercising prudent expense management and limiting discretionary spending to navigate the current environment."

First Quarter Financial Highlights¹²³:

• Total gross transaction value ("GTV") decreased 6% year over year to $3.8 billion.
• Total revenue increased 4% year over year to $1.1 billion.
  • Service revenue remained flat year over year at $852.5 million.
  • Inventory sales revenue increased 19% year over year to $256.1 million.
• Net income increased 5% year-over-year to $113.3 million.
• Net income available to common stockholders increased 6% year over year to $102.9 million.
• Diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders increased 4% to $0.55 per share.
• Diluted adjusted earnings per share available to common stockholders decreased 1% year over year to $0.89 per share.
• Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") decreased 1% year over year to $327.9 million.

2025 Financial Outlook

The table below outlines the Company's outlook for select full-year 2025 financial data, which remains unchanged.

The Company has not provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA outlook for fiscal 2025 to GAAP net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because without unreasonable efforts, it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the amount or timing of non-GAAP adjustments that are used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, including but not limited to: (a) the net loss or gain on the sale of property plant & equipment or other assets, (b) acquisition-related or integration costs relating to our mergers and acquisition activity, including severance costs, (c) other legal, advisory, restructuring and non-income tax expenses, (d) share-based payments compensation expense which value is directly impacted by the fluctuations in our share price and other variables, and (e) other expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing operations. These adjustments are uncertain, depend on various factors that are beyond our control and could have a material impact on net income for fiscal 2025.

Additional Financial and Operational Highlights

Revenue

For the First Quarter:

• GTV decreased 6% year over year to $3.8 billion, primarily due to a decline in the commercial construction and transportation ("CC&T") sector, partially offset by an increase in the automotive sector. The decrease in CC&T GTV was primarily driven by the anticipated lower volume of our enterprise customers, as we benefited in the prior period from certain significant large customer contracts. Partially offsetting lower volumes, the average price per lot sold increased due to an improved mix. Automotive GTV increased due to continued growth from existing partners, as well as year-over-year market share gains, partially offset by a lower average price per lot sold.

• Service revenue remained flat year over year at $852.5 million. A higher service revenue take rate was offset by the lower GTV volume. Service revenue take rate expanded 150 basis points year over year to 22.3% driven by a higher buyer fee rate structure, partially offset by lower marketplace services revenue and a lower average commission rate. The decline in marketplace services revenue was driven by lower fees earned from transportation services compared to the prior period.

• Inventory sales revenue increased 19% year over year to $256.1 million primarily due to higher inventory revenue from the CC&T sector. Inventory rate declined 60 basis points year over year to 8.2%, attributable to weaker performance in all sectors.

• Net income available to common stockholders increased to $102.9 million, primarily driven by lower interest expense due to lower long-term debt levels driven by repayments of principal in the prior year and lower income tax expense from a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by lower operating income.

• Adjusted EBITDA⁵ decreased 1% year over year driven by lower GTV, higher adjusted operating expenses, partially offset by service revenue take rate expansion and higher inventory returns.

• On March 10, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire J.M. Wood Auction Co., Inc. ("J.M. Wood"), an auction business located in Alabama, United States, for approximately $235 million, subject to certain adjustments and an agreed upon amount for inventory held at the time of closing. The acquisition is expected to be completed in the second or third quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions and the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended.

• On April 3, 2025, the Company amended and restated its Credit Agreement dated October 27, 2016, to increase the aggregate principal amount of our multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facilities from $750.0 million to $1.3 billion, and reduce our USD Term Loan A facility aggregate principal amount from $1.2 billion to $950.0 million. As part of the amendment, we also extended the maturity date of the Credit Agreement from September 2026 to April 2030, and reduced our bank spread by approximately 85 basis points and the undrawn revolver fee by approximately 20 basis points.

Key Operating Metrics

We regularly review a number of metrics, including the following key operating metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, and make operating decisions. We believe these key operating metrics are useful to investors because management uses these metrics to assess the growth of our business and the effectiveness of our operational strategies.

We define our key operating metrics as follows:

GTV: Represents total proceeds from all items sold on our auctions and online marketplaces, third-party online marketplaces, private brokerage services and other disposition channels. GTV is not a measure of financial performance, liquidity, or revenue, and is not presented in the Company鈥檚 consolidated financial statements.

Total service revenue take rate: Total service revenue divided by total GTV.

Inventory return: Inventory sales revenue less cost of inventory sold.

Inventory rate: Inventory return divided by inventory sales revenue.

Total lots sold: A single asset to be sold or a group of assets bundled for sale as one unit. Low value assets are sometimes bundled into a single lot, collectively referred to as 鈥渟mall value lots.鈥�

GTV and Selected Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

Non-GAAP Measures

This news release references non-GAAP measures. These measures do not have a standardized meaning and are, therefore, unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with US GAAP.

Please refer to the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 for a summary of adjusting items during the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024.

Adjusted Net Income Available to Common Stockholders and Diluted Adjusted EPS Available to Common Stockholders Reconciliation

The Company believes that adjusted net income available to common stockholders provides useful information about the growth or decline of the net income available to common stockholders for the relevant financial period and eliminates the financial impact of adjusting items the Company does not consider to be part of the normal operating results. Diluted adjusted EPS available to common stockholders eliminates the financial impact of adjusting items from net income available to common stockholders that the Company does not consider to be part of the normal operating results.

Adjusted net income available to common stockholders is calculated as net income available to common stockholders, excluding the effects of adjusting items that we do not consider to be part of our normal operating results, such as share-based payments expense, acquisition-related and integration costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, executive transition costs and certain other items. Net income available to common stockholders is calculated as net income attributable to controlling interests, less cumulative dividends on Series A Senior Preferred Shares and allocated earnings to participating securities.

Diluted adjusted EPS available to common stockholders is calculated by dividing adjusted net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of dilutive shares outstanding, except that it is computed based upon the lower of the two-class method or the if-converted method, which includes the effects of the assumed conversion of the Series A Senior Preferred Shares and the effect of shares issuable under the Company鈥檚 stock-based incentive plans, if such effect is dilutive.

The following table reconciles adjusted net income available to common stockholders and diluted adjusted EPS available to common stockholders to net income available to common stockholders and diluted EPS available to common stockholders, which are the most directly comparable GAAP measures in our consolidated financial statements:

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company believes adjusted EBITDA provides useful information about the growth or decline of its net income when compared between different financial periods. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA as a key performance measure because the Company believes it facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period and provides management with the ability to monitor its controllable incremental revenues and costs.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding back depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income tax expense, and subtracting interest income from net income, as well as adding back the adjusting items.

The following table reconciles adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure in, or calculated from, our consolidated financial statements:

Adjusted Net Debt and Adjusted Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation

The Company believes that comparing adjusted net debt/adjusted EBITDA on a trailing twelve-month basis for different financial periods provides useful information about the performance of its operations as an indicator of the amount of time it would take to settle both the Company鈥檚 short and long-term debt. The Company does not consider this to be a measure of its liquidity, which is its ability to settle only short-term obligations, but rather a measure of how well it funds liquidity. Measures of liquidity are noted under 鈥淟iquidity and Capital Resources鈥� in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Adjusted net debt is calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents from short and long-term debt and long-term debt in escrow. Adjusted net debt/Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by dividing adjusted net debt by adjusted EBITDA.

The following table reconciles adjusted net debt to debt, adjusted EBITDA to net income, and adjusted net debt/ adjusted EBITDA to debt/ net income, respectively, which are the most directly comparable GAAP measures in, or calculated from, our consolidated financial statements.
