Urban Edge Properties Reports First Quarter 2026 Results

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Urban Edge Properties (NYSE: UE) (the “Company”) today announced its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and updated its outlook for full-year 2026.

“Our first quarter results reflect the continued strength and quality of our portfolio,” said Jeff Olson, Chairman and CEO. “We executed 419,000 sf of leasing transactions in the quarter, including 84,000 sf of new leases at a cash spread of 52%, and 335,000 sf of renewals, achieving a blended cash spread of 15%. We acquired The Village at Bridgewater Commons in Bridgewater, New Jersey for $54 million, advancing our external growth plans. We have also raised the low end of our FFO as Adjusted guidance from a range of $1.47 to $1.52 per diluted share to $1.48 to $1.52 per diluted share.”

“As we look ahead, our leasing pipeline remains robust, our balance sheet is well-positioned, and we believe the fundamentals driving our business – including the ongoing demand for high-quality retail space and supply constraints in our markets – will translate into sustained long-term growth,” he concluded.

The increases in net income, FFO and FFO as Adjusted for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were driven by rent commencements on new leases, higher net recovery revenue, growth from accretive capital recycling and lower interest and debt expense. Net income and FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2026 also benefited from $8.4 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, of non-recurring reimbursements received during the quarter pertaining to previously incurred environmental remediation costs.

Increases in same-property NOI metrics for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were driven by rent commencements on new leases from our signed but not open pipeline and higher net recovery revenue, partially offset by higher levels of uncollected rents.

Leasing and Occupancy Results(1)

  • The Company reported same-property portfolio leased occupancy of 96.4%, a decrease of 30 basis points compared to March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2025.

  • Consolidated portfolio leased occupancy was 96.4%, flat compared to March 31, 2025 and a decrease of 30 basis points compared to December 31, 2025.

  • Retail shop leased occupancy was 92.4%, flat compared to March 31, 2025 and a decrease of 20 basis points compared to December 31, 2025.

  • The Company executed 45 new leases, renewals and options totaling 419,000 sf during the quarter. New leases totaled 84,000 sf, of which 59,000 sf was on a same-space basis and generated an average cash spread of 51.6%. New leases, renewals and options totaled 394,000 sf on a same-space basis and generated an average cash spread of 14.6%.

  • As of March 31, 2026, signed leases that have not yet rent commenced are expected to generate an additional $21.7 million of future annual gross rent, representing approximately 7% of current annualized NOI. Approximately $3.3 million of this amount is expected to be recognized in the remainder of 2026.

Acquisition Activity

On March 30, 2026, the Company acquired The Village at Bridgewater Commons for a gross purchase price of $54.3 million, reflecting a 7.7% capitalization rate. The 92,000 sf shopping center is located in Bridgewater, NJ along a highly trafficked and affluent retail corridor with a 5-mile annual average household income of $183,000. The center features a freestanding medical building for Summit Health as well as several high-quality quick-service restaurants including Chipotle, Shake Shack, Cava and Starbucks.

Financing Activity

On January 22, 2026, the Company entered into $950 million of unsecured credit facilities, expanding its borrowing capacity by $150 million. The unsecured credit facilities are comprised of an unsecured line of credit and two delayed-draw term loans aggregating $250 million.

The Company’s existing revolving credit agreement was amended and restated to reduce the unsecured line of credit by $100 million to $700 million and extend the maturity date to June 2030 with two six-month extension options. The term loans are $125 million each consisting of a 5-year maturity and a 7-year maturity, both of which have a delayed-draw feature through January 22, 2027. Based on the Company’s current leverage ratio, borrowings under the unsecured line of credit, 5-year term loan and 7-year term loan bear interest at SOFR plus 1.00%, SOFR plus 1.15% and SOFR plus 1.50%, respectively.

On March 18, 2026, the Company obtained a $62.5 million, 7-year non-recourse mortgage secured by Plaza at Woodbridge with a swapped fixed interest rate of 5.0%.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $30 million outstanding under its unsecured line of credit and no amounts drawn on either of the 5-year or 7-year term loans.

Development and Redevelopment

During the quarter, the Company stabilized four redevelopment projects totaling $6.8 million with new rent commencements from Lidl and Boot Barn at Totowa Commons, Ross Dress for Less at Plaza at Woodbridge, Texas Roadhouse at Outlets at Montehiedra, and Big Blue Swim School at Plaza at Cherry Hill.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company has $157.3 million of active development and redevelopment projects underway, with estimated remaining costs to complete of $66.8 million. The active development and redevelopment projects are expected to generate an approximate 13% yield.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity(1)(4)(5)

Balance sheet highlights as of March 31, 2026 include:

  • Total liquidity of approximately $968 million, consisting of $76 million of cash on hand and $892 million available under the Company’s $950 million of unsecured credit facilities, including undrawn letters of credit.

  • Mortgages payable of $1.68 billion, with a weighted average term to maturity of 3.6 years, all of which are fixed rate or hedged.

  • $30 million drawn on our $700 million unsecured line of credit that matures on June 28, 2030, with two six-month extension options.

  • No outstanding balance on our $250 million of delayed-draw term loans.

  • Total market capitalization of approximately $4.37 billion, comprised of 133.3 million fully-diluted common shares valued at $2.66 billion and $1.71 billion of debt.

  • Net debt to total market capitalization of 37%.

2026 Outlook

The Company has updated its 2026 full-year guidance ranges for net income and FFO and raised the low end of its guidance range by $0.01 per diluted share for FFO as Adjusted, estimating net income of $0.56 to $0.60 per diluted share, FFO of $1.54 to $1.58 per diluted share and FFO as Adjusted of $1.48 to $1.52 per diluted share.

The Company is providing a projection of anticipated net income solely to satisfy the disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company’s projections are based on management’s current beliefs and assumptions about the Company’s business, and the industry and the markets in which it operates; there are known and unknown risks and uncertainties associated with these projections. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from the guidance set forth above. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, including its 2026 earnings guidance, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Please refer to the “Forward-Looking Statements” disclosures on page 8 of this document and “Risk Factors” disclosed in the Company’s annual and quarterly reports filed with the SEC for more information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the primary GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company’s operational results. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the investing public, and thus such reported measures are subject to change. The Company’s non-GAAP performance measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations, and accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results. Additionally, the Company’s computation of non-GAAP metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP metrics reported by other real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) or real estate companies that define these metrics differently and, as a result, it is important to understand the manner in which the Company defines and calculates each of its non-GAAP metrics. The following non-GAAP measures are commonly used by the Company and investing public to understand and evaluate our operating results and performance:

  • FFO: The Company believes FFO is a useful, supplemental measure of its operating performance that is a recognized metric used extensively by the real estate industry and, in particular REITs. FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) and the Company, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate and land when connected to the main business of a REIT, impairments on depreciable real estate or land related to a REIT’s main business, earnings from consolidated partially owned entities and rental property depreciation and amortization expense. The Company believes that financial analysts, investors and shareholders are better served by the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from FFO primarily because it excludes the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, and is not indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or our ability to make cash distributions.

  • FFO as Adjusted: The Company provides disclosure of FFO as Adjusted because it believes it is a useful supplemental measure of its core operating performance that facilitates comparability of historical financial periods. FFO as Adjusted is calculated by making certain adjustments to FFO to account for items the Company does not believe are representative of ongoing core operating results, including non-comparable revenues and expenses. The Company’s method of calculating FFO as Adjusted may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

  • NOI: The Company uses NOI internally to make investment and capital allocation decisions and to compare the unlevered performance of our properties to our peers. The Company believes NOI is useful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. The Company calculates NOI using net income as defined by GAAP reflecting only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and through the Company’s captive insurance program, adjusted for non-cash rental income and expense, impairments on depreciable real estate or land, and income or expenses that we do not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, if any. In addition, the Company uses NOI margin, calculated as NOI divided by total property revenue, which the Company believes is useful to investors for similar reasons.

  • Same-property NOI: The Company provides disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis, which includes the results of properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 66 properties for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Information provided on a same-property basis excludes properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area (“GLA”) is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired, sold, or that are in the foreclosure process during the periods being compared, and results of our captive insurance program. As such, same-property NOI assists in eliminating disparities in net income due to the development, redevelopment, acquisition, disposition, or foreclosure of properties and results of our captive insurance program during the periods presented, and thus provides a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the operating performance of the Company’s properties. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, a property is removed from the same-property pool when it is designated as a redevelopment property because it is undergoing significant renovation or retenanting pursuant to a formal plan that is expected to have a significant impact on its operating income. A development or redevelopment property is moved back to the same-property pool once a substantial portion of the NOI growth expected from the development or redevelopment is reflected in both the current and comparable prior year period, generally one year after at least 80% of the expected NOI from the project is realized on a cash basis. Acquisitions are moved into the same-property pool once we have owned the property for the entirety of the comparable periods and the property is not under significant development or redevelopment. The Company has also provided disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis adjusted to include redevelopment properties. Same-property NOI may include other adjustments as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to NOI and same-property NOI included in the tables accompanying this press release.

  • EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre: EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are supplemental, non-GAAP measures utilized by us in various financial ratios. The White Paper on EBITDAre, approved by Nareit’s Board of Governors in September 2017, defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted for interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, losses and gains on the disposition of depreciated property, impairment write-downs of depreciated property and investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and adjustments to reflect the entity’s share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated joint ventures. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are presented to assist investors in the evaluation of REITs, as a measure of the Company’s operational performance as they exclude various items that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance and because they approximate key performance measures in our debt covenants. Accordingly, the Company believes that the use of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, as opposed to income before income taxes, in various ratios provides meaningful performance measures related to the Company’s ability to meet various coverage tests for the stated periods. Adjusted EBITDAre may include other adjustments not indicative of operating results as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre included in the tables accompanying this press release. The Company also presents the ratio of net debt (net of cash) to annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as of March 31, 2026, and net debt (net of cash) to total market capitalization, which it believes is useful to investors as a supplemental measure in evaluating the Company’s balance sheet leverage.

The Company believes net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP performance measures outlined above. Reconciliations of these measures to net income have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Operating Metrics

The Company presents certain operating metrics related to our properties, including occupancy, leasing activity and rental rates. Operating metrics used by the Company are useful to investors in facilitating an understanding of the operational performance for our properties.

Recovery ratios represent the percentage of operating expenses recuperated through tenant reimbursements. This metric is presented on a same-property and same-property including redevelopment basis and is calculated by dividing tenant expense reimbursements (adjusted to exclude any ancillary income) by the sum of real estate taxes and property operating expenses.

Occupancy metrics represent the percentage of occupied gross leasable area based on executed leases (including properties in development and redevelopment) and include leases signed, but for which rent has not yet commenced. Same-property portfolio leased occupancy includes properties that have been owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 66 properties for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Occupancy metrics presented for the Company’s same-property portfolio exclude properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired within the past 12 months or properties sold, and properties that are in the foreclosure process during the periods being compared.

Executed new leases, renewals and exercised options are presented on a same-space basis. Same-space leases represent those leases signed on spaces for which there was a previous lease.

The Company occasionally provides disclosures by tenant categories which include anchors, shops and industrial/self-storage. Anchors and shops are further broken down by local, regional and national tenants. We define anchor tenants as those who have a leased area of >10,000 sf. Local tenants are defined as those with less than five locations. Regional tenants are those with five or more locations in a single region. National tenants are defined as those with five or more locations and that operate in two or more regions.

As shopper behavior becomes more fragmented and varies significantly by location, many organizations struggle to move beyond broad, market-level strategies. This often leads to inefficient spend, missed opportunities, and difficulty proving return on investment.

Precision Solutions helps solve this by enabling a more targeted, localized approach to growth for brands and retailers.

The solution combines NIQ’s retail measurement data, consumer panel data, and advanced analytics into a single platform that allows organizations to identify where growth is happening, target the right opportunities, test strategies in-market, and measure results with confidence.

When execution is guided by local precision, performance follows.”

Amarin Reports 2026 First Quarter Financial Results

Total Revenue Increased Led by Higher International Sales

Generated Positive Cash Flow and Reiterates Expectation for Full Year Positive Cash Flow

Recently Updated Industry Guidelines Expand Global Medical Society Endorsements Supporting the Use of Icosapent Ethyl (IPE) in Contemporary Lipid and Cardiovascular Risk Management

DUBLIN, Ireland and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., April 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Amarin Corporation plc (NASDAQ: AMRN), a company committed to advancing the science of cardiovascular disease worldwide, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 (Q1 2026).

“Our results for Q1 2026 reflected the early yet measurable progress generated by our refined global business model which we adopted in mid-2025,” said Aaron Berg, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“The promise of our fully-partnered international commercial strategy – anchored by our European-focused exclusive licensing and supply agreement with Recordati S.p.A. (Recordati) – was reflected in higher European product revenue in Q1 2026 compared to Q4 2025. This consecutive quarterly growth was attributable to strong in-market demand for VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) and the priority assigned by Recordati to expand the commercial reach for this proven therapy. While acknowledging that European sales will vary quarter to quarter, especially in the early days of this new partnership, these initial results are encouraging. Recordati has commenced commercial efforts of VAZKEPA in 10 countries, including a Q4 2025 launch in Italy, and plans to expand its distribution across Europe over the next several years. We are also seeing good growth from our active commercial partners outside of Europe.”

“Our U.S. franchise continues to demonstrate remarkable resilience, where we have maintained our leading market share for VASCEPA® more than five years since the introduction of generics. Industry prescription data for Q1 2026 showed an overall increase in the icosapent ethyl (IPE) market while VASCEPA-branded prescriptions rose by 17% compared to Q1 2025. We expect that volumes will remain stable throughout 2026. Our streamlined U.S. operation remains an efficient, cash generating engine for our Company.” 

He continued, “We are encouraged by the 2026 American College of Cardiology (ACC) / American Heart Association (AHA)/Multisociety Dyslipidemia Guideline Update from March of this year that supports the broader clinical role of IPE in reducing cardiovascular (CV) risk in statin-treated patients with elevated triglycerides. These guidelines shift CV care toward early, lifelong prevention and a more comprehensive risk approach beyond just lowering LDL cholesterol. In recognizing that high triglyceride levels contribute to CV events in many patients, this framework underscores the need for additional therapies beyond statins to address this care gap. This evolutionary perspective on CV risk management is timely and strengthens our position to address the burden of CV disease in patients and across the healthcare ecosystem.”

Mr. Berg concluded, “We have created a new version of Amarin – focused, leaner, and both financially and operationally stronger than at any time in our recent history. The growth initiatives we have undertaken and building industry tailwinds increasingly focused on the needs of patients with elevated triglycerides have positioned us well for 2026. Our team is executing with focus and discipline to achieve our objectives and deliver shareholder value, while continuing to work closely with Barclay’s, our exclusive financial advisor, in exploring additional potential pathways to further enhance shareholder value. While there is still work to be done, we look forward to our future with confidence.”

Peter Fishman, Amarin’s Chief Financial Officer, said, “We are encouraged by our Q1 2026 performance under our new business model. We achieved higher total revenue, led by growth from our partners, and a continued decline in our operating expenses, both of which led to significantly narrowed losses compared to the same period last year. We remain on track to realize the approximately $70 million in cost savings and have incurred nearly all of the associated restructuring costs. Finally, we generated positive cash flow for the second consecutive quarter and continue to expect to be cash flow positive for full year 2026.”

NM – Not Meaningful

Total Net Revenue: Increased $3.1 million, or 7%. U.S. sales of VASCEPA were consistent with the prior year period, benefitting from an increase in volume related to the regaining of exclusive status with a large national pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) beginning in Q3 2025. A slight decline in European revenue was attributable to moving to a partnered sales model in the second half of 2025, a transition that had yet to take effect in Q1 2025. Quarter-to-quarter European sales comparisons that reflect the partnership model with Recordati will commence in Q3 2026. Licensing and royalty revenue increased by 84% due to higher in-market sales generated by our international commercial sales partners.

Total Operating Expenses * $29.1 $41.9 (31)%
*
Total operating expenses reflect the sum of SG&A, R&D, and Restructuring expenses.

NM – Not Meaningful

Total Operating Expenses: Decreased $12.8 million, or 31%, primarily due to the impact of the June 2025 Global Restructuring that produced declines in Selling, General, and Administrative expenses (SG&A). Excluding the restructuring charge of $3.3 million (see discussion below), Q1 2026 total operating expenses were $25.8 million, representing a decline of 38%.

COGS: Increased $10.5 million, or 62%, reflecting increased product volumes to satisfy demand associated with our exclusive PBM relationship that took effect July 1, 2025 and shipments to ROW partners that did not exist in last year’s first quarter.

About VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) Capsules

VASCEPA (icosapent ethyl) capsules are the first prescription treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) comprised solely of the active ingredient, icosapent ethyl (IPE), a unique form of eicosapentaenoic acid. VASCEPA was launched in the United States in January 2020 as the first drug approved by the U.S. FDA for treatment of the studied high-risk patients with persistent cardiovascular risk despite being on statin therapy. VASCEPA was initially launched in the United States in 2013 based on the drug’s initial FDA approved indication for use as an adjunct therapy to diet to reduce triglyceride levels in adult patients with severe (≥500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. Since launch, VASCEPA has been prescribed more than twenty-five million times. VASCEPA is covered by most major medical insurance plans. In addition to the United States, VASCEPA is approved and sold in Canada, China, Australia, Lebanon, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait. In Europe, in March 2021 marketing authorization was granted to icosapent ethyl in the European Union for the reduction of risk of cardiovascular events in patients at high cardiovascular risk, under the brand name VAZKEPA. In April 2021 marketing authorization for VAZKEPA (icosapent ethyl) was granted in the United Kingdom (applying to England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland). VAZKEPA (icosapent ethyl) is currently approved and sold in Europe in Sweden, Finland, England/Wales, Spain, Netherlands, Scotland, Greece, Portugal, Italy, Denmark and Austria.

United States Indications and Limitation of Use

VASCEPA is indicated:  

  • As an adjunct to maximally tolerated statin therapy to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adult patients with elevated triglyceride (TG) levels (≥ 150 mg/dL) and established cardiovascular disease or diabetes mellitus and two or more additional risk factors for cardiovascular disease.  
  • As an adjunct to diet to reduce TG levels in adult patients with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. 

The effect of VASCEPA on the risk for pancreatitis in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia has not been determined. 

Important Safety Information

  • VASCEPA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reaction) to VASCEPA or any of its components.
  • VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (3% vs 2%) of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter requiring hospitalization in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of atrial fibrillation was greater in patients with a previous history of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. 
  • It is not known whether patients with allergies to fish and/or shellfish are at an increased risk of an allergic reaction to VASCEPA. Patients with such allergies should discontinue VASCEPA if any reactions occur. 
  • VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (12% vs 10%) of bleeding in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of bleeding was greater in patients receiving concomitant antithrombotic medications, such as aspirin, clopidogrel or warfarin. 
  • Common adverse reactions in the cardiovascular outcomes trial (incidence ≥3% and ≥1% more frequent than placebo): musculoskeletal pain (4% vs 3%), peripheral edema (7% vs 5%), constipation (5% vs 4%), gout (4% vs 3%), and atrial fibrillation (5% vs 4%). 
  • Common adverse reactions in the hypertriglyceridemia trials (incidence >1% more frequent than placebo): arthralgia (2% vs 1%) and oropharyngeal pain (1% vs 0.3%). 
  • Adverse events may be reported by calling 1-855-VASCEPA or the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088. 
  • Patients receiving VASCEPA and concomitant anticoagulants and/or anti-platelet agents should be monitored for bleeding.

Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Information

Included in this press release are non-GAAP adjusted financial information as defined by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G. The GAAP financial measure is most directly comparable to each non-GAAP adjusted financial measure used or discussed, and a reconciliation of the differences between each non-GAAP adjusted financial measure and the comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in this press release after the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Non-GAAP adjusted net (loss) income was derived by taking GAAP net loss and adjusting it for non-cash stock-based compensation expense, restructuring expense and other one-time expenses. Management uses these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures for internal reporting and forecasting purposes, when publicly providing its business outlook, to evaluate the company’s performance and to evaluate and compensate the company’s executives. The company has provided these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to GAAP financial results because it believes that these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures provide investors with a better understanding of the company’s historical results from its core business operations.

While management believes that these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying performance of the company’s business operations, investors are reminded to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the amounts associated with the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, it should be noted that these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, and management may utilize other measures to illustrate performance in the future.

1Adjusted EBITDA and certain other measures in this release are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Metrics” and the tables that accompany this release for the definitions and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures.

ABOUT AVIS BUDGET GROUP

We are a leading global provider of mobility solutions through our three most recognized brands, Avis, Budget and Zipcar, as well as several other brands, well recognized in their respective markets. We license the use of the Avis, Budget, Zipcar and other brands’ trademarks to licensees in areas in which we do not operate directly. We and our licensees operate our brands in approximately 180 countries throughout the world. Our brands and mobility solutions have an extended global reach with approximately 10,000 rental locations throughout the world. We operate most of our car rental locations in North America, Europe and Australasia. We are headquartered in Parsippany, N.J. More information is available at avisbudgetgroup.com.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND KEY METRICS

This release includes financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, as well as other financial measures, that are not considered generally accepted accounting principle (“GAAP”) measures as defined under SEC rules. Important information regarding such non-GAAP measures is contained in the tables within this release and in Appendix I, including the definitions of these measures and reconciliations to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

We measure performance principally using the following key metrics: (i) rental days, (ii) revenue per day, (iii) vehicle utilization, and (iv) per-unit fleet costs. Our rental days, revenue per day and vehicle utilization metrics are all calculated based on the actual rental of the vehicle during a 24-hour period. We believe that this methodology provides management with the most relevant metrics in order to effectively manage the performance of our business. Our calculations may not be comparable to the calculations of similarly-titled metrics by other companies. We present currency exchange rate effects on our key metrics to provide a method of assessing how our business performed excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Currency exchange rate effects are calculated by translating the current-period’s results at the prior-period average exchange rates plus any related gains and losses on currency hedges.

  • our ability to obtain financing for our global operations, including the funding of our vehicle fleet through the issuance of asset-backed securities and use of the global lending markets;
  • our ability to meet the financial and other covenants contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness, or to obtain a waiver or amendment of such covenants should we be unable to meet such covenants;
  • significant changes in the timing of our fleet rotation, carrying value of goodwill, or long-lived assets, including when there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying value may exceed the current fair value, which have in the past resulted in and in the future could result in a significant impairment charge; and
  • other business, economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, political or technological factors affecting our operations, pricing or services.

We operate in a continuously changing business environment and new risk factors emerge from time to time. New risk factors, factors beyond our control, or changes in the impact of identified risk factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results. Moreover, we do not assume responsibility if future results are materially different from those forecasted or anticipated. Other factors and assumptions not identified above, including those discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,”
set forth in Part II, Item 7, in “Risk Factors,” set forth in Part I, Item 1A, and in other portions of our
2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 19, 2026 (the “2025
Form 10-K”), as well as in similarly titled sections set forth in Part I, Item 2 and Part II, Item 1A of our subsequently filed quarterly reports, may contain forward-looking statements and involve uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, any or all of our forward-looking statements may prove to be inaccurate and we can make no guarantees about our future performance. Should unknown risks or uncertainties materialize or underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could differ materially from past results and/or those anticipated, estimated or projected. We undertake no obligation to release any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events. For any forward-looking statements contained in any document, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Appendix I

Avis Budget Group, Inc.

DEFINITIONS OF NON-GAAP MEASURES AND KEY METRICS

Adjusted EBITDA

The accompanying press release presents Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure most directly comparable to net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before non-vehicle related depreciation and amortization; long-lived asset impairment and other related charges; other fleet charges; restructuring and other related charges; early extinguishment of debt costs; non-vehicle related interest; transaction-related costs, net; legal matters, net, which primarily includes amounts recorded in excess of $5 million, related to unprecedented self-insurance reserves for allocated loss adjustment expense, class action lawsuits and personal injury matters; non-operational charges related to shareholder activist activity, which includes third-party advisory, legal and other professional fees; COVID-19 charges, net; cloud computing costs; other (income) expense, net; severe weather-related damages in excess of $5 million, net of insurance proceeds; and income taxes.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and in comparing our results from period to period. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it allows them to assess our results of operations and financial condition on the same basis that management uses internally. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA from net loss recognized under U.S. GAAP is provided on Table 5.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Represents net cash provided by operating activities adjusted to reflect the cash inflows and outflows relating to capital expenditures, the investing and financing activities of our vehicle programs, asset sales, if any, and to exclude restructuring and other related charges; early extinguishment of debt costs; transaction-related costs; legal matters; non-operational charges related to shareholder activist activity; COVID-19 charges; other (income) expense; and severe weather-related damages.

We believe that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is useful in measuring the cash generated that is available to be used to repay debt obligations, repurchase stock, pay dividends and invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions. Adjusted Free Cash Flow should not be construed as a substitute in measuring operating results or liquidity, and our presentation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow from net cash provided by operating activities recognized under U.S. GAAP is provided on Table 5.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

Available Rental Days

Defined as Average Rental Fleet times the numbers of days in a given period.

Average Rental Fleet

Represents the average number of vehicles in our fleet during a given period of time.

Currency Exchange Rate Effects

Represents the difference between current-period results as reported and current-period results translated at the prior-period average exchange rates plus any related currency hedges.

Gross Adjusted EBITDA

Represents Adjusted EBITDA with the add-back of vehicle depreciation excluding other fleet charges and vehicle interest.

Net Corporate Debt

Represents corporate debt minus cash and cash equivalents.

Net Corporate Leverage

Represents Net Corporate Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months prior to the date of calculation.

Total Net Debt Ratio

Represents total debt less cash and cash equivalents divided by Gross Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months prior to the date of calculation.

Per-Unit Fleet Costs

Represents vehicle depreciation, lease charges and gain or loss on vehicles sales, divided by Average Rental Fleet.

Rental Days

Represents the total number of days (or portion thereof) a vehicle was rented during a 24-hour period.

Revenue per Day

Represents revenues divided by Rental Days.

Vehicle Utilization

Represents Rental Days divided by Available Rental Days.



IDEX Reports First Quarter Results

IDEX Reports First Quarter Results

Highlights

(All comparisons are against the prior year period unless otherwise noted)

  • Sales of $887 million increased 9% on a reported basis and 5% organically

  • Reported diluted EPS of $1.61 increased 28% and adjusted diluted EPS of $2.00 increased 14%

  • Record orders of $988 million increased 13% on a reported basis and increased 10% organically

  • Returned capital to shareholders via $76 million of share repurchases and $53 million of dividends

  • Raising full year 2026 organic growth and adjusted EPS guidance ranges

 

NORTHBROOK, Ill.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–IDEX Corporation (NYSE: IEX) today announced its financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026.

“We delivered a strong first quarter, with results ahead of our expectations led by continued momentum in our growth platforms within our Health & Science Technologies segment,” said Eric D. Ashleman, IDEX Corporation Chief Executive Officer and President.

“Our first quarter results demonstrate that our strategy is working, with strong execution across the portfolio and increasing traction in the markets where we are choosing to compete. The application of 8020 continues to sharpen our priorities and reallocate resources toward opportunities with stronger growth and margin profiles.”

“Based on this momentum, we are raising our full-year guidance and are encouraged by how our strategies are translating into higher-quality growth. We remain focused on disciplined execution as we continue to build long-term value at IDEX.”

Outlook(1)

  • Full year organic sales projected to increase 3% to 4% over the prior year, up from previous guidance of 1% to 2%

  • Full year adjusted diluted EPS of $8.35 to $8.55, up from previous guidance of $8.15 to $8.35

  • Second quarter 2026 organic sales projected to increase 3% to 4% from the prior year period

  • Second quarter 2026 adjusted diluted EPS of $2.07 to $2.12

(1) The Company does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure because the timing and magnitude of certain items, including future foreign exchange impacts, acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring costs, impairments, tax impacts, and other special items, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time without unreasonable effort. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on GAAP results.

*Each of these items below are non-GAAP measures. See the definitions of these non-GAAP measures in the section in this release titled “Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance” and reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the reconciliation tables at the end of this release.

 

(1) Adjusted gross profit is calculated as Gross profit plus fair value inventory step-up charges. Adjusted gross margin is calculated as Adjusted gross profit divided by Net sales. There were no fair value inventory step-up charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025.

  • Net sales increased as a result of increased organic sales, as well as favorable impacts from foreign currency and contributions from acquisitions. The increase in organic sales was driven by higher volumes in our Health & Science Technologies (“HST”) segment, which were slightly offset by lower volumes in our Fire & Safety/Diversified Products (“FSDP”) and Fluid & Metering Technologies (“FMT”) segments. The increase also reflects positive price across our businesses.

  • Gross margin decreased due to unfavorable mix and pressured price/cost, partially offset by net productivity improvements and volume leverage.

  • Both Diluted EPS and Adjusted diluted EPS increased, primarily due to improved operational results discussed above. GAAP Diluted EPS also reflects lower restructuring and asset impairment expense, which was excluded from Adjusted diluted EPS.

  • Cash flows from operating activities and free cash flow were both slightly down compared to the prior year period. Higher earnings were offset by the timing of customer payments. Free cash flow also reflects higher capital expenditures during the current year period.

*These are non-GAAP measures. See the definitions of these non-GAAP measures in the section in this release titled “Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance” and reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the reconciliation tables at the end of this release.

(1) Three month data includes the results of the acquisition of Micro-LAM, Inc. (“Micro-LAM”) (July 2025) in the HST segment.

(2) Segment Adjusted EBITDA excludes unallocated corporate costs which are included in Corporate and other.

Health & Science Technologies Segment

  • Net sales for the first quarter 2026 increased 17%. Organic sales increased 11% due to higher volumes primarily due to AI-driven demand for data center power and semiconductor markets, as well as strength in space and defense, partially offset by lower volumes in our life sciences businesses. Net sales also reflect positive price across the segment.

  • Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter 2026 increased primarily due to volume leverage and favorable price/cost, partially offset by unfavorable mix and acquisitions.

Fluid & Metering Technologies Segment

  • Net sales for the first quarter 2026 increased 4%. Organic sales increased 2% primarily driven by positive price. Higher volumes in our businesses serving municipal water, semiconductor and mining markets were more than offset by lower volumes in our chemical and general industrial businesses.

  • Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter 2026 decreased primarily due to unfavorable mix and volume deleverage, mostly mitigated by net productivity improvements.

Fire & Safety/Diversified Products Segment

  • Net sales for the first quarter 2026 increased 2%. Organic sales decreased 1%. Higher volumes in our Fire & Safety businesses and positive price were more than offset by lower volumes within our Dispensing businesses driven by timing of projects.

  • Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter 2026 increased primarily due to net productivity improvements, partially offset by unfavorable mix and volume deleverage.

Corporate Costs

Corporate costs included in consolidated Adjusted EBITDA were $30.1 million during the first quarter 2026, up slightly from $28.9 million during the same prior year period driven by higher employee-related costs.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

The Company prepares its public financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The Company supplements certain U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics with non-GAAP financial performance metrics. Management believes these non-GAAP financial performance metrics provide investors with greater insight, transparency and a more comprehensive understanding of the financial information used by management in its financial and operational decision making because certain of these adjusted metrics exclude items not reflective of ongoing operations, as identified in the reconciliations below. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial performance metrics to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics are defined and presented below and should not be considered a substitute for, nor superior to, the financial data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this and other documents may not add up or recalculate precisely.

All table footnotes can be found at the end of this Non-GAAP Measures section. There were no adjustments to U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics other than the items noted below.

  • Organic orders and organic sales are calculated as orders and Net sales excluding amounts from acquired or divested businesses during the first twelve months of ownership or prior to divestiture and excluding the impact of foreign currency translation.

  • Adjusted gross profit is calculated as Gross profit plus fair value inventory step-up charges. There were no fair value inventory step-up charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025.

  • Adjusted gross margin is calculated as Adjusted gross profit divided by Net sales. There were no fair value inventory step-up charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025.

  • Adjusted net income attributable to IDEX is calculated as Net income attributable to IDEX plus Restructuring expenses and asset impairments, plus acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, less gain on legal settlement, all net of the statutory tax expense or benefit.

  • Adjusted diluted EPS attributable to IDEX is calculated as adjusted net income attributable to IDEX divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

  • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as consolidated earnings before interest expense – net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or consolidated EBITDA, plus Restructuring expenses and asset impairments, less gain on legal settlement.

  • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net sales.

  • Free cash flow is calculated as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow conversion is calculated as free cash flow divided by adjusted net income attributable to IDEX.

Visa Accelerates Stablecoin Momentum: Adding Five Blockchains for Settlement

Visa Accelerates Stablecoin Momentum: Adding Five Blockchains for Settlement

Stablecoin settlement pilot sees record growth 50% quarter over quarter, reaching $7B run rate.

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Today, Visa (NYSE: V) announced that it is adding five blockchains to its global stablecoin settlement pilot, expanding how issuers and acquirers can settle with the network. As stablecoins move into mainstream payment flows, Visa’s stablecoin settlement pilot now supports nine blockchains and has reached a $7 billion annualized stablecoin settlement run rate, up 50% since last quarter.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260429143049/en/

Visa is adding support for five additional blockchains, further expanding its multi-chain settlement capabilities.

Visa is adding support for five additional blockchains, further expanding its multi-chain settlement capabilities.

“Our partners are building in a multi-chain world, and they expect their options to reflect that reality,” said Rubail Birwadker, Global Head of Growth Products and Strategic Partnerships, Visa. “Expanding our stablecoin settlement pilot program to more blockchains means our partners can choose the networks that best fit their needs, while relying on Visa to provide a common settlement layer across all of them.”

Newly supported blockchains

Visa is adding support for five additional blockchains, further expanding its multi-chain settlement capabilities:

  • Arc: An open Layer-1 blockchain created by Circle, purpose-built to unite programmable money and onchain innovation with real-world economic activity.
  • Base: A high-performance blockchain enabling fast, low-cost settlement for stablecoins, onchain assets and agentic commerce. Powered by Coinbase.
  • Canton: Built with configurable privacy for regulated capital markets, enabling compliant settlement for institutional use cases.
  • Polygon: A leading blockchain payments solution that enables fast, low-cost transactions, delivering seamless, high-throughput infrastructure for global payments and digital commerce.
  • Tempo: Focused on faster, private, and more efficient movement of stablecoin liquidity and settlement flows.

With these additions, Visa now supports nine blockchains across its global stablecoin settlement pilot program, giving partners more choice while building on existing support for Avalanche, Ethereum, Solana, and Stellar.

From experimentation to multi-chain reality

Over the past year, stablecoins have evolved from a promising innovation to a practical way to move money globally, and Visa’s settlement pilots are helping partners streamline operations.

This builds on years of live pilots and regional rollouts across LAC, Europe, AP and CEMEA, as well as the recent expansion of USDC settlement to U.S. banks and 130+ stablecoin-linked card programs in more than 50 countries. The move to nine supported blockchains mirrors a broader trend: liquidity and activity now span a diverse, multi-chain ecosystem, and settlement infrastructure is evolving to match to provide more choice.

Visa is building toward a future where interoperability is essential. Supporting multiple blockchains gives partners more choice in how they access liquidity across ecosystems and adapt as the landscape changes, while Visa eases some of the underlying complexity so institutions can use stablecoins through a trusted, global network.

Continued momentum

The growth to a $7B run rate underscores increasing confidence in blockchain infrastructure from financial institutions, fintechs, and payment providers. Stablecoin settlement over blockchain infrastructure is becoming a viable complement to traditional settlement rails.

As adoption continues, Visa remains focused on bridging traditional finance and blockchain-based systems – bringing the same standards of reliability, security, and scale to both.

Partner perspectives

“Arc is designed to provide the performance, predictability, and reliable access to liquidity needed to support real-time settlement at a global scale. Our work with Visa reflects growing demand for stablecoins like USDC and blockchain infrastructure that can settle today’s payment flows instantly while enabling the next era of programmable commerce and agent-driven economic activity.” Nikhil Chandhok, Chief Product and Technology Officer, Circle.

“Our goal with Base has always been to make onchain the new standard. Visa’s expansion is a pivotal step in making stablecoin payments a daily reality for billions of people, enabling a faster, cheaper, and more useful financial system for everyone,” said Jesse Pollak, Founder of Base.

“Canton was designed to meet demanding requirements of regulated institutions, and Visa’s stablecoin settlement platform provides a bridge that lets them explore onchain settlement while staying aligned with their compliance requirements,” said Eric Saraniecki, Head of Network Strategy at Digital Asset, co-founder of the Canton Network.

“Visa adding Polygon signals that stablecoins are moving into real world payments at scale. By combining Visa’s global reach with Polygon’s fast, low-cost infrastructure, we are making stablecoin settlement more practical, reliable, and accessible for partners around the world,” said Marc Boiron, CEO, Polygon Labs.

“Tempo is focused on real-time stablecoin settlement, and Visa’s participation as both a validator and settlement partner helps bring always-on, programmable payments closer to the mainstream,” said Ani Narayan, GTM, Tempo.

Marty Freeman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Old Dominion, commented, “Old Dominion’s first quarter financial results reflect a continuation of encouraging trends that started developing late last year. While our first quarter revenue decreased on a year-over-year basis, demand for our LTL service improved as the quarter progressed. The improvement in demand, coupled with our ability to consistently deliver superior service to our customers, contributed to both the acceleration in our LTL volumes and improvement in our yield during the quarter. Our industry-leading service metrics for the first quarter once again included 99% on-time service and a claims ratio below 0.1%. These service standards form the foundation of our unmatched value proposition, which we believe will support our ability to win market share over the long term.

“Our revenue decreased 2.9% as compared to the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily due to a 7.7% decrease in our LTL tons per day that was partially offset by an increase in our LTL revenue per hundredweight. The decrease in our LTL tons per day reflects the net impact of a 7.9% decrease in our LTL shipments per day and a 0.3% increase in our LTL weight per shipment. LTL revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges, increased 4.4% compared to the first quarter of 2025, reflecting our long-term, disciplined approach to yield management.

“Our operating ratio increased by 80 basis points to 76.2% for the first quarter of 2026, as the increase in our overhead costs as a percent of revenue more than offset the improvement in our direct operating costs. Our overhead costs increased as a percent of revenue primarily due to the deleveraging effect associated with the decrease in revenue as well as an overall increase in our general supplies and expenses. Our direct operating costs, however, improved as a percent of revenue due to our continued focus on revenue quality and operating efficiencies. The combination of a decrease in our revenue and an increase in our operating ratio resulted in a 4.2% reduction in our earnings per diluted share to $1.14 for the first quarter.”

Cash Flow and Use of Capital

Old Dominion’s net cash provided by operating activities was $373.6 million for the first quarter of 2026. The Company had $288.1 million in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2026.

Capital expenditures were $62.6 million for the first quarter of 2026. The Company expects its aggregate capital expenditures for 2026 to total approximately $265 million. This total includes planned expenditures of $125 million for real estate and service center expansion projects; $95 million for tractors and trailers; and $45 million for information technology and other assets.

Old Dominion continued to return capital to shareholders during the first quarter of 2026 through its share repurchase and dividend programs. For the quarter, the Company utilized $88.1 million of cash for its share repurchase program and paid $60.5 million in cash dividends.

Summary

Mr. Freeman concluded, “Old Dominion produced solid results during the first quarter as we continued to diligently execute our long-term strategic plan, the cornerstone of which remains our commitment to provide our customers with superior service at a fair price. Our industry-leading customer service, combined with our consistent investments in our network, our technology and our people, uniquely positions us to capitalize on an improving demand environment. Our team has all the necessary elements of capacity to effectively manage incremental volume opportunities. As a result, we are confident in our ability to win market share, generate profitable revenue growth and increase shareholder value over the long term.”
