(1)For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, equipment sales to OWN Program participants were $1,296 million, $1,474
million, and $706 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, equipment sales to contractors and other
end users were $245 million, $202 million, and $173 million, respectively.
The Company's Equipment Rental and Services Operations segment revenue (see Note 24) is comprised of
equipment rental and related services and equipment parts, supplies, and services revenue presented in the table
above.
The disaggregation of the Company's revenue from contracts to customers as reflected above, coupled with the
reportable segment disclosures (see Note 24), depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the
Company's revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Equipment rental sublease income was $1,210 million, $827 million and $559 million for the years ended
December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Revenue for lease arrangements with customers (Topic 842)
Equipment rental revenue: The Company is in the business of renting equipment that is owned by the Company
or rented from vendors, contractors, and others and then re-rented to the Company’s third-party customers. Such
arrangements are accounted for as operating leases with the Company as a lessor and governed by the standard
rental contract.
As a lessor of rental equipment to customers, revenue is recognized in the period earned on a straight-line basis
over the contract term, regardless of timing of billing to customers. A rental contract term can be daily, weekly, or
monthly (28 days), and is billed when the monthly rental charge is achieved, or at the completion of the rental
contract, whichever is sooner. From time to time, the Company provides an option for the lessee to purchase the
rented equipment at the end of the lease, however, the Company does not generate material revenue from sales of
equipment under such rental purchase option arrangements.
Equipment rental revenue includes revenue generated by the Company, as a sublessor, from equipment that is
owned by others who are participants in the Company’s OWN Program. Under the OWN Program, the owner’s
equipment is fully enabled with the Company’s T3 telematics and placed on the Company’s platform to be rented.
Rental revenue generated while the equipment is rented to the Company’s customers is shared between the
Company and the owner of the equipment. The Company may also provide other services under the OWN Program,
such as maintenance, insurance, and remarketing services. Rental revenue generated from the OWN Program is
divided between the Company and the owner of the equipment, and for the duration of the arrangement the
Company manages the owner’s equipment utilizing the T3 operating system.
Ancillary and other equipment rental revenues: Delivery fees charged are variable, based on the type of
equipment being delivered, the requested delivery time, the distance of the delivery and other relevant
considerations. Delivery occurs before the rental period begins and, therefore, delivery fees charged are recognized
over the monthly rental period.
Other equipment rental revenue is primarily comprised of (i) revenue generated from customers who purchase
rental insurance coverage to protect against potential damages or loss to the equipment rented and (ii) environmental
fees assessed on the rental asset. Rental insurance coverage revenue is recognized as revenue in the period earned on
a straight-line basis over the contract term, regardless of timing of billing to customers. Environmental fee revenue
is recognized in the period earned on a straight-line basis over the contract term.
Revenues from contracts with customers (Topic 606)
Pick-up services: Pick-up services are at the customer’s option after the lease has terminated, and control of the
asset no longer resides with the lessee. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue from pick-up services at the
point in time when the pick-up service has been provided, regardless of timing of billing to customers.
Fuel recovery fees: Similar to pick-up services, fuel recovery charges are at the customer’s option after the lease
has terminated, and control of the asset no longer resides with the lessee. Accordingly, fuel recovery fees, which are
included in other equipment rental, are recognized at the point in time when the customer elects the service and the
service has been provided by the Company.
Equipment sales (new and used) and equipment parts and supplies sales: The Company recognizes revenue on
sales of new equipment and used equipment, as well as revenue on sales of parts and supplies, at the point in time
when it has a contract in place and satisfies the performance obligation by transferring control of the product or
service to a customer. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to be
entitled to in exchange for such products or services. The Company recognizes revenue on sales of new equipment,
used equipment, and parts and supplies when control has transferred to the customer, which is typically when the
asset is picked up, delivered to the customer, or when significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the
customer. In certain cases, the Company acts as the agent for the sale of new equipment, resulting in the new
equipment sales revenue being presented net of new equipment cost of revenues in the equipment sales revenue on
the accompanying consolidated statements of net income. Otherwise, the Company presents new and used
equipment sales on a gross basis within equipment sales revenue and the related equipment sales cost of revenues on
the accompanying consolidated statements of net income. As described above, the Company sells equipment assets
to other parties and may allow the purchaser of the equipment to place the equipment asset in the OWN Program to
be rented to the Company’s customers. Sales and other tax amounts collected from customers and remitted to
government authorities are accounted for on a net basis and excluded from revenue.
Service revenue: Service revenue is primarily comprised of (i) warranty services and (ii) maintenance services
and other miscellaneous services. Warranty services revenue represents compensation for the service work the
Company has performed on behalf of the OEM in order to fulfill the warranty extended by the OEM to the
customer. Warranty revenue and the related receivable are short-term in nature and revenue is recognized at the
point in time when the repair service has been provided by the Company. The Company acts as the principal in these
transactions and, therefore, warranty revenue earned and warranty expense incurred are presented on a gross basis
within revenues and cost of revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of net income. Maintenance
services and other miscellaneous services revenue represents compensation for maintenance work the Company has
performed for customers and is recognized at the point in time when the services are performed, or under certain
OWN Program arrangements, the Company has a stand-ready performance obligation to provide maintenance
services and revenue is recognized over the contract service period.
Telematics revenue: Telematics revenue includes (i) the sale of subscriptions to the Company’s telematics
services, which are recognized on a straight-line basis over the period corresponding to the telematics subscriptions
that are sold separately to customers; (ii) as an allocation of the transaction consideration from equipment rentals for
the non-lease component of the rental arrangements, which is recognized on a straight-line basis over time based on
the monthly period for equipment rentals; or (iii) the sale of custom electronic components, including telematics
tracker devices and cloud-based access control keypads.
Other: Other platform revenue includes sales of building materials and hardware supplies, which are recognized
at a point in time when the products are purchased and picked up by the customer from one of the Company’s store
locations.
Contract assets and liabilities
The Company does not have material contract assets or material contract liabilities associated with contracts
with customers. The Company’s contracts with customers do not result in material amounts billed to customers in
excess of recognizable revenue. The Company did not recognize material revenues during the years ended
December 31, 2025 or 2024 that were contract liabilities at the beginning of such periods.
