NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. GENERAL

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Ryder System, Inc. (Ryder) and all entities in which Ryder has a controlling voting interest (subsidiaries) and variable interest entities (VIE) required to be consolidated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included and the disclosures herein are adequate. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for a full year. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. We included "Other operating expenses" together with "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we previously reported certain costs in "Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental" and "Cost of services" that should have been included in the "Cost of fuel services" within the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. These costs were not material to any financial statement line item and we elected to revise the presentation of these prior period costs to conform to the current year presentation in our financial statements.

We report our financial performance based on three business segments: (1) Fleet Management Solutions (FMS), which provides full service leasing and leasing with flexible maintenance options, commercial rental and maintenance services of trucks, tractors and trailers to customers principally in the United States (U.S.) and Canada; (2) Supply Chain Solutions (SCS), which provides integrated logistics solutions, including distribution management, dedicated transportation, transportation management, e-commerce, last mile and professional services in North America; and (3) Dedicated Transportation Solutions (DTS), which provides turnkey transportation solutions in the U.S. that includes dedicated vehicles, drivers, management, and administrative support. Dedicated transportation services provided as part of an operationally integrated, multi-service, supply chain solution to SCS customers are primarily reported in the SCS business segment. In February 2022, we announced our intentions to exit the FMS United Kingdom (U.K.) business. We expect to complete the exit of the FMS U.K. business by mid-2023.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). This update provides optional expedients for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other rates discontinued at the end of 2021 because of reference rate reform. The update is effective for all transactions from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We intend to apply this guidance if relevant contracts that include LIBOR or other discontinued rates are modified through December 31, 2022. We continuously evaluate the potential impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

3. SEGMENT REPORTING

Our primary measurement of segment financial performance, defined as segment "Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes" (EBT), includes an allocation of costs from Central Support Services (CSS) and excludes Non-operating pension costs, net and certain other items as discussed in Note 15, "Other Items Impacting Comparability." Segment results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

Contracted Not Recognized Revenue

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized (contracted not recognized revenue). Contracted not recognized revenue primarily includes deferred revenue and amounts for full service ChoiceLease maintenance revenue that will be recognized as revenue in future periods as we provide maintenance services to our customers. Contracted not recognized revenue excludes (1) variable consideration as it is not included in the transaction price consideration allocated at contract inception; (2) revenue from our lease component of our ChoiceLease product and commercial rental product; (3) revenue from contracts with an original duration of one year or less, including SelectCare contracts; and (4) revenue from SCS, DTS and other contracts where there are remaining performance obligations when we have the right to invoice but the revenue to be recognized in the future corresponds directly with the value delivered to the customer. Contracted not recognized revenue was $2.3 billion as of September 30, 2022.

Residual Value Estimate Changes

We periodically review and adjust, as appropriate, the estimated residual values and useful lives of existing revenue earning equipment for the purposes of recording depreciation expense. Reductions in estimated residual values or useful lives will increase depreciation expense over the remaining useful life of the vehicle. Conversely, an increase in estimated residual values or useful lives will decrease depreciation expense over the remaining useful life of the vehicle. Our review of the estimated residual values and useful lives of revenue earning equipment is based on vehicle class (i.e., generally subcategories of trucks, tractors and trailers by weight and usage), historical and current market prices, third-party expected future market prices, expected lives of vehicles, and expected sales in the wholesale or retail markets, among other factors. A variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, could cause residual value estimates to differ from actual used vehicle sales pricing, such as changes in supply and demand of used vehicles; volatility in market conditions; changes in vehicle technology; competitor pricing; regulatory requirements; driver shortages; customer requirements and preferences; and changes in underlying assumption factors. We have disciplines related to the management and maintenance of our vehicles designed to manage the risk associated with the residual values of our revenue earning equipment.

Used Vehicle Sales and Valuation Adjustments

Revenue earning equipment held for sale is stated at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Losses on vehicles held for sale for which carrying values exceeded fair value, which we refer to as "valuation adjustments," are recognized at the time they are deemed to meet the held for sale criteria and are presented within "Used vehicle sales, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. For revenue earning equipment held for sale, we stratify our fleet by vehicle type (trucks, tractors and trailers), weight class, age and other relevant characteristics and create classes of similar assets for analysis purposes. For revenue earning equipment held for sale, fair value was determined based upon recent market prices obtained from our own sales experience for each class of similar assets and vehicle condition, if available, or third-party market pricing. In addition, we also consider expected declines in market prices when valuing the vehicles held for sale, as well as forecasted sales channel mix (retail/wholesale).

The following table presents revenue earning equipment held for sale that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and considered a Level 3 fair value measurement:

8. INCOME TAXES

Effective Tax Rate

Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2022 was 26.3% as compared to 24.3% in the third quarter of 2021, and 28.3% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to 25.7% in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in the effective tax rate for both periods was due to incremental U.S. tax on higher foreign earnings related to the exit of our U.K. FMS business as well as a shift in the mix of earnings subject to tax in different jurisdictions.

Deferred Income Taxes

We assess the realizability of our deferred tax assets each reporting period, considering both positive and negative evidence on realizability, and record a valuation allowance to the extent it is determined that they are not more-likely-than-not to be realizable. During the third quarter of 2022, the consideration of all of the evidence led to the determination that the deferred tax assets in the U.K. were more-likely-than-not to be realizable, and therefore, the full valuation allowance on the U.K. deferred tax assets of $8 million was released.

The notional amount of the executed interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges was $500 million and $450 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

(2)Asset-backed U.S. obligations are related to financing transactions backed by a portion of our revenue earning equipment.

The fair value of total debt (excluding finance lease and asset-backed U.S. obligations) was approximately $5.8 billion and $6.2 billion as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. For publicly-traded debt, estimates of fair value were based on market prices. For other debt, fair value was estimated based on a model-driven approach using rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The fair value measurements of our publicly-traded debt and our other debt were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

As of September 30, 2022, there was $551 million available under the global revolving credit facility. In order to maintain availability of funding, we must maintain a ratio of debt to consolidated net worth of less than or equal to 300%, as defined in the credit facility agreement. As of September 30, 2022, the ratio was 157%.

We had letters of credit and surety bonds outstanding of $542 million and $456 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which primarily guarantee the payment of insurance claims.

As of September 30, 2022, the available proceeds under the trade receivables financing program were $174 million. In May 2022, we extended the maturity of the trade receivables financing program to expire in May 2023.

In September 2022, we received $54 million from a financing transaction backed by a portion of our revenue earning equipment. The proceeds from the transaction were used for general corporate purposes. We provided end of term guarantees for the residual value of the revenue earning equipment in the transaction. The transaction proceeds, along with the end of term residual value guarantees, have been included within "asset-backed U.S. obligations" in the preceding table.

11. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

In September 2022, we completed our $300 million accelerated share repurchase program. This program was authorized by our board of directors in February 2022, and at that time, we repurchased and retired an initial share amount of approximately 3 million. The final settlement occurred in September 2022, resulting in the delivery and retirement of approximately 1 million additional shares. The number of shares ultimately repurchased and retired was based on the average of Ryder's daily volume-weighted average price per share of common stock during a repurchase period, less a discount. The average price paid for all of the shares delivered and retired under the accelerated share purchase agreement was $74.47 per share.

We maintain two additional share repurchase programs. The first program grants management discretion to repurchase up to 2.0 million shares of common stock over a period of two years, commencing October 14, 2021 and expiring October 14, 2023 (the "2021 Discretionary Program"). The 2021 Discretionary Program is designed to provide management with capital structure flexibility while concurrently managing objectives related to balance sheet leverage, acquisition opportunities, and shareholder returns. The second program authorizes management to repurchase up to 2.5 million shares of common stock, issued to employees under the company's employee stock plans since September 1, 2021 (the "2021 Anti-Dilutive Program"). The 2021 Anti-Dilutive Program is designed to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under the company's employee stock plans. The 2021 Anti-Dilutive Program commenced October 14, 2021 and expires October 14, 2023. Share repurchases under both programs can be made from time to time using the company's working capital and a variety of methods, including open-market transactions and trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors, including balance sheet leverage, availability of quality acquisitions and stock price. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we did not repurchase any shares under these programs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repurchased and retired approximately 0.7 million shares for $57 million under the 2019 anti-dilutive program.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, other items impacting comparability included:

•Restructuring and other, net — For the third quarter of 2022, this item primarily included the recovery of $14 million related to the pursuit of a discrete commercial claim, partially offset by professional fees incurred to pursue the claim of approximately $9 million and U.K. severance costs as part of our plan to exit the FMS U.K. business of $2 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, this item primarily included $20 million of professional fees related to the pursuit of a discrete commercial claim, partially offset by a recovery towards the full claim of $14 million. The nine months ended September 30, 2022, also included $9 million of U.K. severance costs as part of our plan to exit the FMS U.K. business and $5 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of PLG Investments I, LLC. (Whiplash). In February 2022, we announced our intention to exit the FMS U.K. business and we expect to complete the exit plan by mid-2023. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, this item primarily included professional fees related to the pursuit of a discrete commercial claim.

•Gains on sale of U.K. revenue earning equipment and properties — For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded gains on the sale of U.K. revenue earning equipment and properties as part of our plan to exit the FMS U.K. business. We recorded gains on sale of U.K. properties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily for certain FMS properties in the U.K. that were restructured as part of cost reduction activities in prior periods. The gains on sale of U.K. revenue earning equipment are reflected within "Used vehicle sales, net" and the gains on sale of U.K. properties are reflected within "Miscellaneous income, net" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

16. CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS

We are a party to various claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our continuing business operations including those relating to commercial and employment claims, environmental matters, risk management matters (e.g., vehicle liability, workers’ compensation, etc.), and administrative assessments primarily associated with operating taxes. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. We believe that the resolution of these claims, complaints and legal proceedings will not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our estimates regarding potential losses and materiality are based on our judgment and assessment of the claims utilizing currently available information. Although we will continue to reassess our estimated liability based on future developments, our objective assessment of the legal merits of such claims may not always be predictive of the outcome and actual results may vary from our current estimates.

Securities Litigation Relating to Residual Value Estimates

On May 20, 2020, a putative class action on behalf of purchasers of our securities who purchased or otherwise acquired their securities between July 23, 2015 and February 13, 2020, inclusive (Class Period), was commenced against Ryder and certain of our current and former officers in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the "Securities Class Action"). The complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants misrepresented Ryder’s depreciation policy and residual value estimates for its vehicles during the Class Period in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeks to recover, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages and attorneys' fees and costs. On August 3, 2020, the State of Alaska, Alaska Permanent Fund, the City of Fort Lauderdale General Employees’ Retirement System, and the City of Plantation Police Officers Pension Fund were appointed lead plaintiffs. On October 5, 2020, the lead plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. On December 4, 2020, Ryder and the other named defendants in the case filed a Motion to Dismiss the amended complaint. On May 12, 2022, the court denied the defendants' motion to dismiss. The court entered a case management schedule on June 27, 2022, which, among other things, provides that discovery shall be completed by October 2023 and the commencement of trial in June 2024.

As previously disclosed, between June 2020 and February 2, 2021, five shareholder derivative complaints were filed purportedly on behalf of Ryder against us as nominal defendant and certain of our current and former officers and our current directors. The complaints are generally based on allegations set forth in the Securities Class Action complaint and allege breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate assets. The plaintiffs, on our behalf, are seeking an award of monetary damages and restitution to us, improvements in our corporate governance and internal procedures, and legal fees. Three of these derivative complaints were filed in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida, which were then consolidated into a single action (the "State Action"). Two of the complaints were filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the "Federal Actions", and together with the State Action, the "Derivative Cases"). All of the Derivative Cases were stayed (stopped) pending the resolution of the motion to dismiss the Securities Class Action described in the paragraph above. On July 18, 2022 the Federal Actions were further stayed pending the final resolution of the State Action. On July 26, 2022, the State Action was further stayed until the conclusion of summary judgment proceedings in the Securities Class Action (except that certain discovery would be permitted).

We believe the claims asserted in the complaints are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously.

17. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION


	Nine months ended September 30,
(In thousands)	2022		2021

Interest paid	$	157,039	$	155,358
Income taxes paid	$	96,061	$	21,177



Cash paid for amounts included in measurement of liabilities:
Operating cash flows from operating leases	$	133,434	$	70,047

Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations:
Finance leases	$	5,112	$	12,480
Operating leases	$	228,660	$	71,555



Capital expenditures acquired but not yet paid	$	292,259	$	176,907

18. ACQUISITIONS

On January 1, 2022, we acquired all the outstanding equity of PLG Investments I, LLC (Whiplash), a leading national provider of omnichannel fulfillment and logistics services for an approximate purchase price of $483 million. The acquisition is included in our SCS business segment, and will expand our e-commerce and omnichannel fulfillment network.

The following table provides the preliminary purchase price allocation of the fair value of the assets and liabilities for Whiplash as of the acquisition date:


(In thousands)	January 1, 2022
Assets:
Receivables, net	$	78,765
Goodwill	280,615
Customer relationships and other intangible assets	157,400
Other assets, primarily operating lease right-of-use assets	241,646
Total assets	758,426

Liabilities:
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	78,948
Other liabilities, primarily operating lease liabilities	196,709
Net assets acquired	$	482,769

The excess of the purchase consideration over the aggregate estimated fair values of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized reflects anticipated supply chain services growth opportunities and expected synergies of combining Whiplash with our business. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. Customer relationship intangible assets are expected to be amortized over 13 years. The purchase price included $439 million of restricted cash placed in escrow and the remaining amount classified as a deposit as of December 31, 2021. These amounts were recorded in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021. The cash paid from escrow during the first quarter of 2022 is reflected in "Acquisitions, net of cash acquired" in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

We believe that we have sufficient information to provide a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The purchase price allocation excludes certain items to be resolved post-closing with the seller, which

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

(unaudited)

may result in additional adjustments to the final purchase price. Therefore, the provisional measurements of estimated fair values reflected are subject to change. We expect to finalize the valuation and complete the purchase consideration allocation no later than December 31, 2022.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we paid $27 million, net of cash acquired, related to other business combinations, which resulted in additions to goodwill and intangible assets of $20 million and $2 million, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included under Item 1, as well as our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and related MD&A included in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. We included "Other operating expenses" together with "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we previously reported certain costs in "Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental" and "Cost of services" that should have been included in the "Cost of fuel services" within the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. These costs were not material to any financial statement line item and we elected to revise the presentation of these prior period costs to conform to the current year presentation in our financial statements.

OVERVIEW

General

We operate in highly competitive markets. Our customers select us based on numerous factors including service quality, price, technology and service offerings. As an alternative to using our services, customers may choose to provide these services for themselves, or may choose to obtain similar or alternative services from other third-party vendors. Our customer base includes enterprises operating in a variety of industries including food and beverage service, transportation and logistics, retail and consumer goods, automotive, industrial, housing, technology, and business and personal services.

Business Trends

In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, supply chain disruptions and labor shortage challenges contributed to, and continue to contribute to increased demand for our services as companies seek long-term outsourcing solutions. In addition, the limited supply of vehicles available in the market contributed to robust demand and pricing for our rental and used vehicles.

In our Fleet Management Solutions (FMS) business, the used vehicle sales and rental market have benefited from strong demand and pricing trends, resulting in higher year over year performance in both of these areas. Used vehicle market conditions remain strong despite a decline in sequential used vehicle pricing. We anticipate that the historically strong used vehicle sales environment will continue to decline this year, with slower freight growth partially offset by ongoing tight market capacity. We have benefited from market acceptance for higher lease rates on new and renewing leases, resulting in improved portfolio returns and North America ChoiceLease fleet growth. If the limited supply of vehicles continues for an extended period, we will likely continue to experience benefits in rental and used vehicle pricing and overall demand; however, we may experience limited rental and lease fleet growth from OEM delivery delays and lower used vehicle sales volumes due to limited used vehicle inventory.

In our Supply Chain Solutions (SCS) business, we are seeing strong outsourcing trends in warehousing and distribution, as well as in e-commerce fulfillment and last mile delivery of big and bulky items. We continue to experience a significant level of new contract wins in SCS and Dedicated Transportation Solutions (DTS), which combined with recent acquisitions, contributed to significant revenue growth. Our previously announced acquisitions are performing well and above expectations and provide us with enhanced capabilities in fast-growing e-commerce fulfillment and in multi-client warehousing. During the latter half of 2021 and first half of 2022, labor shortages resulted in higher labor costs across all of our business segments, particularly our DTS and SCS segments. The DTS and SCS pricing adjustments and cost recovery initiatives helped DTS and SCS return to their target earnings levels in the third quarter.

While we are experiencing positive momentum in our businesses, other unknown effects from extended higher fuel prices, inflationary cost pressures, prolonged labor shortages, extended disruptions in vehicle and vehicle part production and rising interest rates may negatively impact demand for our business, financial results, and significant judgments and estimates.

SELECTED OPERATING PERFORMANCE ITEMS

•Total revenue of $3.0 billion and operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure) of $2.3 billion for third quarter of 2022 increased 23% and 18%, respectively as compared to prior year, reflecting revenue growth across all business segments and SCS acquisitions

•Diluted EPS from continuing operations of $4.82 in the third quarter of 2022 versus $2.58 in prior year, reflecting significantly higher earnings in FMS and improved performance in SCS and DTS

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)

•Comparable EPS (a non-GAAP measure) from continuing operations of $4.45 in the third quarter of 2022 versus $2.55 in prior year

•Adjusted Return on Equity (ROE) (a non-GAAP measure) of 30.0% in the third quarter of 2022

•Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $1.8 billion and free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) of $887 million in the third quarter of 2022

The following discussion provides a summary of financial highlights that are discussed in more detail throughout our MD&A and within the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:

(1)Non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this MD&A for reconciliations of the most comparable GAAP measure to the non-GAAP financial measure and the reasons why management believes this measure is important to investors.

Total revenue increased 23% in the third quarter of 2022 and 26% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel, subcontracted transportation and ChoiceLease liability insurance revenue) increased 18% in the third quarter of 2022 and 20% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increases in total and operating revenue for both the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were primarily due to higher revenue across all of our business segments and the SCS acquisitions of PLG Investments I, LLC (Whiplash) and Midwest Warehouse & Distribution System (Midwest). Total revenue in both periods also increased from higher subcontracted transportation and fuel revenue.

EBT and comparable EBT (a non-GAAP measure) increased to $334 million and $308 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2022 from $183 million and $182 million, respectively, in the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, EBT and comparable EBT (a non-GAAP measure) increased to $924 million and $877 million, respectively, as compared to $457 million and $436 million, respectively in the prior year period. The increases in both periods were primarily due to higher gains on used vehicles sold in North America, higher commercial rental results and a declining impact of depreciation expense from prior residual value estimate changes. The increase in the third quarter was also driven by higher results in SCS and DTS.

Lease & related maintenance and rental revenue represent revenue from our ChoiceLease and commercial rental product offerings within our FMS business segment. Revenue increased 3% in the third quarter of 2022 and 6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by increases in commercial rental pricing and demand.

Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental represents the direct costs related to lease & related maintenance and rental revenue and are comprised of depreciation of revenue earning equipment, maintenance costs (primarily repair parts and labor), and other costs such as licenses, insurance and operating taxes. Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental excludes interest costs from vehicle financing, which are reported within "Interest expense" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental decreased 4% in the third quarter of 2022 and 3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to declining depreciation expense impacts from prior residual value estimate changes.

Lease & related maintenance and rental gross margin increased in the third quarter of 2022 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to higher commercial rental pricing and utilization, a declining impact of depreciation expense from prior residual value estimate changes and higher ChoiceLease pricing.

Services revenue increased 37% in the third quarter of 2022 and 40% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to increases in revenue in SCS and DTS driven by growth from acquisitions, higher volumes, new business, and higher pricing. Prior year volumes in SCS were negatively impacted from supply chain disruptions, primarily in the automotive industry.

Cost of services represents the direct costs related to services revenue and is primarily comprised of salaries and employee-related costs, subcontracted transportation (purchased transportation from third parties), fuel, vehicle liability costs and maintenance costs. Cost of services increased 33% in the third quarter and 39% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to the growth in revenue and higher subcontracted transportation and labor costs in SCS and DTS.

Services gross margin increased 67% in the third quarter of 2022 and increased 46% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to higher pricing, new business, growth from acquisitions and increased volumes.

Fuel services gross margin and gross margin as a percentage of revenue remained relatively breakeven in the third quarter of 2022 and remained at 1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to prior year. Fuel is largely a pass-through to customers for which we realize minimal changes in margin during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, fuel services margin is impacted by sudden increases or decreases in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel is established based on current market fuel costs. Fuel services gross margin for the third quarter of 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was not significantly impacted by these price change dynamics as fuel prices fluctuated during the period.

SG&A expenses increased 21% in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in both periods is mainly due to higher incentive-based compensation costs, amortization of intangibles from the Whiplash and Midwest acquisitions, and higher bad debt and travel expense. The increase in SG&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, also included increased strategic investments in information technology. SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue remained flat at 12% for the third quarter of 2022 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-operating pension costs, net include the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost, interest cost and expected return on plan assets components of pension and postretirement benefit costs, as well as any significant charges for settlements or curtailments if recognized. The non-operating pension costs, net increased due to lower return on assets from a shift in mix of assets and higher interest expense from a higher discount rate partially offset by lower amortization expense.

Used vehicle sales, net includes gains or losses from sales of used vehicles, selling costs associated with used vehicles and write-downs of vehicles held for sale to fair market values (referred to as "valuation adjustments"). Used vehicle sales, net increased in the third quarter of 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to higher proceeds per unit on sales of used vehicles. Used vehicle sales, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, includes gains associated with the exit of the U.K. of $15 million and $43 million, respectively. Refer to Note 15, "Other Items Impacting Comparability" for further details.

Average proceeds per unit increased in the third quarter of 2022 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The following table presents the average used vehicle pricing changes for North America compared to the prior year:

Miscellaneous income, net consists of investment income on securities used to fund certain benefit plans, interest income, gains on sales of operating property, foreign currency transaction remeasurement and other non-operating items. Miscellaneous income, net was $8 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $6 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting higher gains on sales of properties partially offset by lower investment income. Miscellaneous income, net was $23 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $55 million in the prior year period, primarily due to lower investment income and higher gains on sale of properties in the prior year.

(2)Refer to Note 14, "Employee Benefit Plans," for a discussion on this item.

(3)Refer to Note 15, "Other Items Impacting Comparability," and below for a discussion of items excluded from our primary measure of segment performance.

As part of management’s evaluation of segment operating performance, we define the primary measurement of our segment financial performance as segment "Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes" (EBT), which includes an allocation of Central Support Services (CSS), and excludes Non-operating pension costs, net and certain other items as discussed in Note 15, "Other Items Impacting Comparability," in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. CSS represents those costs incurred to support all business segments, including finance and procurement, corporate services, human resources, information technology, public affairs, legal, marketing, and corporate communications.

The objective of the EBT measurement is to provide clarity on the profitability of each segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each business segment accountable for their allocated share of CSS costs. Segment results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Certain costs are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in CSS, including costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation.

Our FMS segment leases revenue earning equipment and also provides rental vehicles, fuel, maintenance and other ancillary services to the SCS and DTS segments. Inter-segment EBT allocated to SCS and DTS includes earnings related to equipment used in providing services to SCS and DTS customers. EBT related to inter-segment equipment and services billed to SCS and

(1)For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, rental revenue from lease customers in place of a lease vehicle represented 33% and 30% of commercial rental revenue, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, rental revenue from lease customers in place of a lease vehicle represented 33% and 30% of commercial rental revenue, respectively.

(3)Non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this MD&A for reconciliations of the most comparable GAAP measure to the non-GAAP financial measure and the reasons why management believes this measure is important to investors.

FMS total revenue increased 10% in the third quarter of 2022 and 13% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to higher operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and ChoiceLease liability insurance revenue) and higher fuel service revenue primarily reflecting higher fuel prices passed through to customers. FMS operating revenue increased 4% in the third quarter and 7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by increases in commercial rental pricing and demand, despite a 4% and 2% negative impact from the wind down of the UK business for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

FMS EBT in the third quarter of 2022 increased to $265 million from $186 million in the prior year period. FMS EBT in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased to $799 million from $408 million in the prior year period. FMS EBT increased primarily from higher used vehicle sales and rental results reflecting benefits from tight truck capacity and initiatives to improve returns in these areas. Increased gains on used vehicles sold and a declining impact of depreciation expense from prior vehicle residual value estimate changes contributed $55 million and $255 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, in higher year-over-year earnings. Used vehicle pricing increased from the prior year for both trucks and tractors. Used vehicle inventory levels increased to 4,700 vehicles due to increased U.K. inventory related to our exit plan, but remains below the target range of 7,000 - 9,000 vehicles. Commercial rental results benefited from 7% increased power fleet pricing in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and strong power fleet utilization. Rental power fleet utilization of 83% in the third quarter of 2022 was consistent with the prior period and increased to 83% from 79% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the prior period.

Acquisition	24		26		24		26

Fuel	2		—		2		—

Net increase	50	%	49	%	52	%	49	%

————————————

SCS total revenue increased 50% in the third quarter of 2022 and 52% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily as a result of higher operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and subcontracted transportation). SCS operating revenue increased 49% in both the third quarter of 2022 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to the acquisitions of Whiplash and Midwest and strong revenue growth in all industry verticals from new business, higher volumes and increased pricing. Higher volumes include the prior year impact of supply chain disruptions. Operating revenue organically grew 23% for the third quarter of 2022 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

SCS EBT increased 189% in the third quarter of 2022 and 57% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to higher pricing and cost-recovery initiatives and new business. SCS EBT comparisons also benefited from the impact of supply chain disruptions in the prior year and acquisitions. The positive impact of acquisitions included non-cash amortization expense of $6 million and $22 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations	$	1,786,414	$	1,684,891

Cash provided by operating activities of $1.8 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was driven by higher earnings, partially offset by higher working capital needs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in working capital needs was primarily attributed to a decrease in accounts payable due to the timing of payments, as well as changes in other liabilities. Cash used in investing activities increased to $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared with $861 million in 2021, primarily due to the acquisition of Whiplash and an increase in cash paid for capital expenditures partially offset by higher proceeds from the sale of revenue earning equipment. Cash used in financing activities decreased to $600 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $768 million in 2021, due to higher debt borrowing needs partially offset by increased debt repayments and common stock repurchases.

this table. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this MD&A for the reasons why management believes this measure is important to investors.

Free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) increased to $887 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, from $829 million in 2021, primarily due to higher proceeds from the sale of revenue earning equipment, including the sale of U.K. vehicles related to our exit plan, partially offset by an increase in cash paid for capital expenditures.

The following table provides a summary of gross capital expenditures:

Gross capital expenditures increased to $2.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily reflecting higher planned investments in the ChoiceLease fleet.

Financing and Other Funding Transactions

We utilize external capital primarily to support working capital needs and growth in our asset-based product lines. The variety of financing alternatives typically available to fund our capital needs include commercial paper, long-term and medium-term public and private debt, asset-backed securities, bank term loans, leasing arrangements, and bank credit facilities. Our principal sources of financing are issuances of unsecured commercial paper and medium-term notes.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $456 million as of September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, approximately $395 million was held outside the U.S. and is available to fund operations. We have historically asserted our intent to permanently reinvest foreign earnings outside of the U.S. In 2021, we reevaluated our historic assertion with respect to our U.K. and Germany operations and no longer consider these earnings to be indefinitely reinvested. The deferred tax liability recorded on the U.K. and Germany undistributed earnings is not material. In October 2022, we repatriated $282 million of foreign earnings from the U.K. We intend to continue to permanently reinvest the earnings of our remaining foreign subsidiaries indefinitely.

We believe that our operating cash flows, together with our access to the public unsecured bond market, commercial paper market and other available debt financing, will be adequate to meet our operating, investing and financing needs in the foreseeable

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)

future. However, volatility or disruption in the public unsecured debt market or the commercial paper market may impair our ability to access these markets or secure terms commercially acceptable to us. If we cease to have access to public bonds, commercial paper and other sources of unsecured borrowings, we would meet our liquidity needs by drawing upon contractually committed lending agreements or by seeking other funding sources.

In February 2022, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $450 million unsecured medium terms notes that mature on March 1, 2027. The notes bear interest at a rate of 2.85% per year. In May 2022, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $300 million unsecured medium terms notes that mature on June 15, 2027. The notes bear interest at a rate of 4.30% per year. Refer to Note 10, "Debt," in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our global revolving credit facility, trade receivables financing program, medium-term notes, and asset-backed financing obligations.

Our ability to access unsecured debt in the capital markets is impacted by both our short-term and long-term debt ratings. These ratings are intended to provide guidance to investors in determining the credit risk associated with our particular securities based on current information obtained by the rating agencies from us or from other sources. Ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold our debt securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Lower ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs, as well as reduced access to unsecured capital markets. A significant downgrade of our short-term debt ratings would impair our ability to issue commercial paper and likely require us to rely on alternative funding sources. A significant downgrade would not affect our ability to borrow amounts under our global revolving credit facility described below, assuming ongoing compliance with the terms and conditions of the credit facility.

Our debt ratings and rating outlooks as of September 30, 2022, were as follows:

As of September 30, 2022, we had the following amounts available to fund operations under the following facilities:


	(In millions)

Global revolving credit facility	$	551
Trade receivables financing program	$	174

In accordance with our funding philosophy, we attempt to align the aggregate average remaining re-pricing life of our debt with the aggregate average remaining re-pricing life of our vehicle assets. We utilize both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to achieve this alignment and generally target a mix of 20% - 40% variable-rate debt as a percentage of total debt outstanding. The variable-rate portion of our total debt (including notional value of swap agreements) was 22% and 16% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Our debt to equity ratio was 210% and 235% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The debt to equity ratio represents total debt divided by total equity. The decrease in the debt to equity ratio from year-end 2021 primarily reflects increased earnings as well as a reduction in debt obligations from free cash flow partially offset by higher share repurchases.

Share Repurchases and Cash Dividends

In October 2022 and 2021, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.62 and $0.58 per share of common stock, respectively. The cash dividend of $0.62 per share of common stock in October 2022, increased by approximately 7% compared to the cash dividend declared in October 2021. The dividends were paid during the fourth quarter of each respective year.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes information extracted from condensed consolidated financial information, but not required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) to be presented in the financial statements. Certain elements of this information are considered "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined by SEC rules. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. Also, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to financial measures used by other companies. We provide a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure in this non-GAAP financial measures section or in the MD&A above. We also provide the reasons why management believes each non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in this section.

Specifically, we refer to the following non-GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-Q:

Set forth in the table below is an overview of each non-GAAP financial measure and why management believes that the presentation of each non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors.


Operating Revenue Measures:
Operating Revenue FMS Operating Revenue SCS Operating Revenue DTS Operating Revenue FMS EBT as a % of FMS Operating Revenue SCS EBT as a % of SCS Operating Revenue DTS EBT as a % of DTS Operating Revenue			Operating revenue is defined as total revenue for Ryder System, Inc. or each business segment (FMS, SCS and DTS) excluding any (1) fuel and (2) subcontracted transportation, as well as (3) revenue from our ChoiceLease liability insurance program which was discontinued in early 2020. We believe operating revenue provides useful information to investors as we use it to evaluate the operating performance of our core businesses and as a measure of sales activity at the consolidated level for Ryder System, Inc., as well as for each of our business segments. We also use segment EBT as a percentage of segment operating revenue for each business segment for the same reason. Note: FMS EBT, SCS EBT and DTS EBT, our primary measures of segment performance, are not non-GAAP measures. Fuel: We exclude FMS, SCS and DTS fuel from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as fuel is an ancillary service that we provide our customers. Fuel revenue is impacted by fluctuations in market fuel prices and the costs are largely a pass-through to our customers, resulting in minimal changes in our profitability during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, profitability may be positively or negatively impacted by rapid changes in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel services is established based on current market fuel costs. Subcontracted transportation: We exclude subcontracted transportation from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as these services are also typically a pass-through to our customers and, therefore, fluctuations result in minimal changes to our profitability. While our SCS and DTS business segments subcontract certain transportation services to third party providers, our FMS business segment does not engage in subcontracted transportation and, therefore, this item is not applicable to FMS. ChoiceLease liability insurance: We exclude ChoiceLease liability insurance as we announced our plan in the first quarter of 2020 to exit the extension of our liability insurance coverage for ChoiceLease customers. The exit of this program was completed in the first quarter of 2021. We are excluding the revenue associated with this program for better comparability of our on-going operations.

Comparable Earnings Measures:
Comparable Earnings before Income Taxes (EBT) Comparable Earnings Comparable Earnings per Diluted Common Share (EPS) Comparable Tax Rate Adjusted Return on Equity (ROE)			Comparable EBT, Comparable Earnings and Comparable EPS are defined, respectively, as GAAP EBT, earnings and EPS, all from continuing operations, excluding (1) non-operating pension costs, net and (2) other items impacting comparability (as further described below). We believe these comparable earnings measures provide useful information to investors and allow for better year-over-year comparison of operating performance. Non-operating pension costs, net: Our comparable earnings measures exclude non-operating pension costs, net, which include the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost, interest cost and expected return on plan assets components of pension and postretirement benefit costs, as well as any significant charges for settlements or curtailments if recognized. We exclude non-operating pension costs, net because we consider these to be impacted by financial market performance and outside the operational performance of our business. Other Items Impacting Comparability: Our comparable and adjusted earnings measures also exclude other significant items that are not representative of our business operations as detailed in the reconciliation table below. These other significant items vary from period to period and, in some periods, there may be no such significant items. Comparable Tax Rate is computed using the same methodology as the GAAP provision for income taxes. Income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated based on the marginal tax rates to which the non-GAAP adjustments are related. Adjusted ROE is defined as adjusted net earnings divided by adjusted average shareholders' equity and represents the rate of return on shareholders' investment. Other items impacting comparability described above are excluded, as applicable, from the calculation of net earnings and average shareholders' equity. We use adjusted ROE as an internal measure of how effectively we use the owned capital invested in our operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)


Comparable Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)			Comparable EBITDA is defined as net earnings, first adjusted to exclude discontinued operations and the following items, all from continuing operations: (1) non-operating pension costs, net and (2) any other items that are not representative of our business operations (these items are the same items that are excluded from comparable earnings measures for the relevant periods as described immediately above) and then adjusted further for (1) interest expense, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation, (4) used vehicle sales results and (5) amortization. We believe comparable EBITDA provides investors with useful information, as it is a standard measure commonly reported and widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to measure financial performance and our ability to service debt and meet our payment obligations. In addition, we believe that the inclusion of comparable EBITDA provides consistency in financial reporting and enables analysts and investors to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results. Other companies may calculate comparable EBITDA differently; therefore, our presentation of comparable EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Comparable EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings, earnings from continuing operations before income taxes or earnings from continuing operations determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), as an indicator of cash flows, or as a measure of liquidity.
Cash Flow Measures:
Total Cash Generated Free Cash Flow			We consider total cash generated and free cash flow to be important measures of comparative operating performance, as our principal sources of operating liquidity are cash from operations and proceeds from the sale of revenue earning equipment. Total Cash Generated is defined as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment, (3) net cash provided by the sale of operating property and equipment and (4) other cash inflows from investing activities. We believe total cash generated is an important measure of total cash flows generated from our ongoing business activities. Free Cash Flow is defined as the net amount of cash generated from operating activities and investing activities (excluding changes in restricted cash and acquisitions) from continuing operations. We calculate free cash flow as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment and operating property and equipment, and (3) other cash inflows from investing activities, less (4) purchases of property and revenue earning equipment. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available for debt service and for shareholders, after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations. Our calculation of free cash flow may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. * See Total Cash Generated and Free Cash Flow reconciliations in the Financial Resources and Liquidity section of Management's Discussion and Analysis.

These statements, as well as other forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, are based on our current plans and expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. We caution readers that certain important factors could cause actual results and events to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. These risk factors, include the following:

•Market Conditions:

◦Changes in general economic and financial conditions, including extended higher fuel prices, inflationary cost pressures, prolonged labor shortages, extended disruptions in vehicle and vehicle part production and rising interest rates, nationally or globally, leading to decreased demand for our services and products, lower profit margins, increased levels of bad debt and reduced access to credit and financial markets.

◦Decreases in freight demand that would impact both our transactional and variable-based contractual business.

◦Changes in our customers’ operations, financial condition or business environment that may limit their demand for, or ability to purchase, our services and products.

◦Decreases in market demand affecting the commercial rental market and used vehicle sales as well as global economic conditions.

◦Volatility in customer volumes and shifting customer demand in the industries serviced by our SCS business.

◦Changes in current financial, tax or regulatory requirements that could negatively impact our financial results.

◦Ongoing developments related to geopolitical events, including the ongoing armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and its impact on the global economy and our business.

•Competition:

◦Advances in technology may impact demand for our services or may require increased investments to remain competitive.

◦Competition from other service providers, who may have greater capital resources or lower capital costs, or from our customers, who may choose to provide services themselves.

◦Continued consolidation in the markets in which we operate, which may create large competitors with greater financial resources.

◦Our inability to maintain current pricing levels due to economic conditions, demand for services, customer acceptance or competition.

•Profitability:

◦Our inability to obtain adequate profit margins for our services.

◦Lower than expected sales volumes or customer retention levels.

◦Unexpected costs related to the exit of the FMS U.K. business or unexpectedly low returns on sales of U.K. assets.

◦Our inability to successfully integrate recent acquisitions in a cost efficient manner, or at all.

◦Decreases in commercial rental fleet utilization and pricing.

◦Lower than expected used vehicle sales pricing levels and fluctuations in the anticipated proportion of retail versus wholesale sales.

◦Withdrawal liability as a result of our participation in multi-employer plans.

◦Instability in U.S. and worldwide credit markets, resulting in higher borrowing costs and/or reduced access to credit.

•Accounting Matters:

◦Reductions in residual values or useful lives of revenue earning equipment.

◦Increases in compensation levels, retirement rate and mortality resulting in higher pension expense; regulatory changes affecting pension estimates, accruals and expenses.

◦Changes in accounting rules, assumptions and accruals.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there were no changes in Ryder's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect such internal control over financial reporting.

Our operations could also be affected by additional risk factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently consider not material to our business.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The following table provides information with respect to purchases we made of our common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2022:

Total	976,153	$	67.98	975,960

————————————

(1)During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we purchased an aggregate of 193 shares of our common stock in employee-related transactions. Employee-related transactions may include: (i) shares of common stock withheld as payment for the exercise price of options exercised or to satisfy the tax withholding liability associated with our share-based compensation programs and (ii) open-market purchases by the trustee of Ryder’s deferred compensation plans relating to investments by employees in our stock, one of the investment options available under the plans.

(2)In October 2021, our board of directors authorized two new share repurchase programs. The first program grants management discretion to repurchase up to 2.0 million shares of common stock over a period of two years, commencing on October 14, 2021 and expiring on October 14, 2023 (the "2021 Discretionary Program"). The 2021 Discretionary Program is designed to provide management with capital structure flexibility while concurrently managing objectives related to balance sheet leverage, acquisition opportunities, and shareholder returns. The second program authorizes management to repurchase up to 2.5 million shares of common stock, issued to employees under the company's employee stock plans since September 1, 2021 (the "2021 Anti-Dilutive Program"). The 2021 Anti-Dilutive Program is designed to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under the company's employee stock plans. The 2021 Anti-Dilutive Repurchase Program commenced on October 14, 2021 and expires on October 14, 2023. Share repurchases under both programs can be made from time to time using the company's working capital and a variety of methods, including open-market transactions and trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors, including balance sheet leverage, availability of quality acquisitions and stock price.

(3)In September 2022, we completed our $300 million accelerated share repurchase program. This program was authorized by our board of directors in February 2022, and at that time, we repurchased and retired an initial share amount of approximately 3 million. The final settlement occurred in September 2022, resulting in the delivery and retirement of approximately 1 million additional shares. The number of shares ultimately repurchased and retired was based on the average of Ryder's daily volume-weighted average price per share of common stock during a repurchase period, less a discount. The average price paid for all of the shares delivered and retired under the ASR was $74.47 per share. Refer to Note 11, "Share Repurchase Programs," in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion on our share repurchase programs.
