Provides Conservative Outlook for 2026 Relative to Run Rate Entering the Year

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Feb. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WillScot Holdings Corporation (“WillScot” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: WSC), a leader in innovative temporary space solutions, today announced fourth quarter and full year 2025 results, including key performance highlights and market updates. The Company also announced its outlook for full year 2026.

Q4 2025^{1, 2}

• Generated revenue of $566 million, gross profit margin percentage of 50.4%, net loss of $187 million.
• Reported Adjusted Net Income of $55 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $250 million at a 44.2% margin.
• Reported diluted and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share of $(1.03) and $0.29, respectively.
• Leasing revenues of $437 million declined 5.9% year-over-year and increased 0.8% sequentially. Excluding longer-dated receivables write-offs, leasing revenues were down 1.7% year-over-year and modular space product leasing revenues were essentially flat to prior year.
• Generated Net cash provided by operating activities of $159 million at a 28.1% margin and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $91 million at a 16.2% margin.
• Paid down $41 million of outstanding debt and returned $30 million to shareholders through share repurchases and our quarterly cash dividend.
• Initiated a comprehensive network optimization initiative ("Network Optimization Plan"), which was approved by the Board of Directors on December 18, 2025, to reduce expected annual real estate cost increases over the next four years by approximately $25 million to $30 million through planned real estate exits. As a result of this plan, the Company recorded a $302 million non-cash restructuring charge due to accelerated depreciation on certain rental equipment identified for abandonment in the quarter.
  

Full Year 2025^{1, 2, 4}

• Generated revenue of $2.3 billion, gross profit margin percentage of 51.0%, and net loss of $53 million.
• Reported Adjusted Net Income of $219 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $971 million at a 42.6% margin.
• Reported diluted and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share of $(0.29) and $1.20, respectively.
• Leasing revenues of $1.7 billion declined 4.9% year-over-year. Excluding longer-dated receivables write-offs, leasing revenues were down 2.3% year-over-year.
• Generated Net cash provided by operating activities of $762 million at a 33.4% margin and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $489 million at a 21.4% margin.
• Paid down $146 million of outstanding debt and returned $151 million to shareholders through share repurchases and quarterly cash dividends.

2026 Outlook^{1, 2}

• FY 2026 Revenue of approximately $2.175 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $900 million, reflecting a conservative view relative to revenue and Adjusted EBITDA run rates entering the year and the $50 million headwind in the traditional storage business discussed previously.
• FY 2026 Net CAPEX of approximately $275 million, reflecting continued investments in higher value product categories to support strong activity in large project demand and a potential inflection in organic revenue growth.

Tim Boswell, President and Chief Executive Officer of WillScot, commented, "We ended 2025 in a solid position to execute our strategic priorities entering 2026. Market activity remains heavily bifurcated with significant demand across mega projects in our industrial sectors compared to overall non-residential construction square footage starts down 12% year-over-year in the quarter and down 6% for the year. Our team is focused on executing the commercial and operational initiatives that are within our control and showing encouraging results entering 2026. Modular activations were up 3% year-over-year in the fourth quarter and pending orders across all products were up more than 10% year-over-year entering January with further strength since. This reflects growing demand for modular complexes and Flex for larger projects, as well as strong order growth for traditional and cold storage, particularly in our retail vertical. We continue to expect that our Enterprise Accounts portfolio will deliver high single digit revenue growth in 2026. And improved staffing and systems enabling our field sales organization are potential tailwinds entering 2026. Operationally, we are progressing initiatives across our field and shared services teams, which are driving an improved customer experience, resilient margins, and outstanding free cash flow generation."

Boswell continued, "We enter 2026 focused on delivering consistent results through disciplined execution against our operating strategies. Our internal plans and compensation targets comfortably exceed our outlook, although the market backdrop remains mixed, and we think the conservatism is prudent given our recent trends. Our top priority is to drive an inflection in organic revenue growth in 2026 and unlock the significant operating efficiencies embedded across our platform, which together provide a clear path to drive long-term shareholder value creation."

Matt Jacobsen, Chief Financial Officer of WillScot, commented, "Fourth quarter 2025 revenue of $566 million compared favorably to our outlook as we ended the year. Leasing revenue increased sequentially in the quarter despite our continued accounts receivable clean up initiatives and lower seasonal retail storage business. Our modular space leasing revenues in the quarter were essentially flat to prior year, which combined with the growing order book, indicates lease revenue stabilization in our largest product class. Unit sales and increased delivery and return activity drove a majority of the revenue outperformance to our outlook, although resulted in a lower margin revenue mix."

Jacobsen concluded, "Looking to 2026, our initial outlook of approximately $2.175 billion in revenue and $900 million in Adjusted EBITDA is conservative relative to our run rate entering the year and reflects the $50 million headwind in our traditional storage business we discussed previously. Through our ongoing internal initiatives, we anticipate leasing trends can improve with the potential to inflect quarterly leasing revenues year-over-year at some point in the second half 2026 and place us on a growth trajectory for 2027."

2026 Full Year Outlook^{1, 2}
The Company's outlook for Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA reflects a conservative view relative to the run rate entering the year and the headwinds discussed previously in the traditional storage business. The Net CAPEX outlook reflects continued investments in higher value product categories to support strong activity in large project demand and a potential inflection in organic revenue at some point in the second half of 2026. This outlook uses approximate figures and is subject to risks and uncertainties, including those described in "Forward-Looking Statements" below.

____________________
1 - Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, Adjusted Weighted Average Diluted Shares Outstanding, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, Net CAPEX and Return on Invested Capital are financial measures that are not required by, or calculated in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the US ("GAAP"). Further information and reconciliations for these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP are included at the end of this press release.
2 - Information reconciling forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Net CAPEX to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is unavailable to the Company without unreasonable effort and, therefore, neither the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures nor reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided.
3 - Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is defined as total debt, net of total cash and cash equivalents, divided by Adjusted EBITDA from the last twelve months.
4 - Share repurchase figure includes excise taxes paid of approximately $2 million in 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, Adjusted Weighted Average Diluted Shares Outstanding, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Return on Invested Capital, Net CAPEX, and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and, therefore, the Company's non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. For reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release (except as explained below), see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included in this press release.

Information regarding the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and reconciling forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Net CAPEX to those GAAP financial measures is unavailable to the Company without unreasonable effort. We cannot provide the most comparable GAAP financial measures nor reconciliations of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Net CAPEX to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, such as the provision for income taxes. Preparation of such reconciliations would require a forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income, and statement of cash flow, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements are unavailable to the Company without unreasonable effort. Although we provide outlooks for Adjusted EBITDA and Net CAPEX that we believe will be achieved, we cannot accurately predict all the components of the Adjusted EBITDA and Net CAPEX calculations. The Company provides Adjusted EBITDA and Net CAPEX guidance because we believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Net CAPEX, when viewed with our results under GAAP, provides useful information for the reasons noted below.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

Additional information can be found on the Company's website at www.willscot.com.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to using GAAP financial measures, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are important for purposes of comparison to prior periods and development of future projections and earnings growth prospects. This information is also used by management to measure the profitability of our ongoing operations and analyze our business performance and trends. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for analysis of, results reported under GAAP. Our measurements of these metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest (income) expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Our adjusted EBITDA ("Adjusted EBITDA") reflects the following further adjustments to EBITDA to exclude certain non-cash items and the effect of what we consider transactions or events not related to our core business operations:

• Currency (gains) losses, net on monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency.
• Goodwill and other impairment charges related to non-cash costs associated with impairment charges to goodwill, other intangibles, rental fleet, and property, plant and equipment.
• Restructuring costs, lease impairment expense, and other related charges associated with restructuring plans designed to streamline operations and reduce costs including employee and lease termination costs.
• Transaction costs including legal and professional fees and other transaction specific related costs.
• Costs to integrate acquired companies, including outside professional fees, non-capitalized costs associated with system integrations, non-lease branch and fleet relocation expenses, employee relocation and training costs, and other costs required to realize cost or revenue synergies.
• Non-cash charges for stock compensation plans.
• Other expense, including consulting expenses related to certain one-time projects, financing costs not classified as interest expense, gains and losses on disposals of property, plant, and equipment, unrealized gains and losses on investments, costs to implement the Company's real estate exits prior to approval of the Network Optimization Plan, and non-equity executive transition costs.
  

We evaluate business performance utilizing Adjusted EBITDA as shown in the reconciliation of the Company's consolidated net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA below. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful to investors because they (i) allow investors to compare performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis by removing from operating results the impact of items that do not reflect core operating performance; (ii) are used by our board of directors and management to assess our performance; (iii) may, subject to the limitations described below, enable investors to compare the performance of the Company to its competitors; (iv) provide additional tools for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends; and (v) align with definitions in our ABL Facility.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider the measure in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), cash flow from operations or other methods of analyzing the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness;
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations;
• Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
• Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
  

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to reinvest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to meet our obligations. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity.

The following table provides reconciliations of net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA:

(a) For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, Other included $2.3 million and $3.8 million in costs to implement the Company's real estate exit initiatives prior to approval of the Network Optimization Plan and $3.8 million and $5.1 million in non-equity executive transition costs, respectively. For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024,Other included $1.1 million and $42.4 million in legal and professional fees related to the terminated merger with McGrath RentCorp ("McGrath"), respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA Margin provides useful information to investors regarding the performance of our business. The following table provides comparisons of Adjusted EBITDA Margin to Gross Profit Margin:

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is defined as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA from the last twelve months. We define Net Debt as total debt net of total cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that the presentation of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio provides useful information to investors regarding the performance of our business. The following table provides a reconciliation of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio:

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss), plus certain non-cash items and the effect of what we consider transactions not related to our core business operations including:

• Restructuring costs, lease impairment expense, and other related charges associated with restructuring plans designed to streamline operations and reduce costs including employee and lease termination costs.
• Goodwill and other impairment charges related to non-cash costs associated with impairment charges to goodwill, other intangibles, rental fleet and property, plant and equipment.
• Costs to integrate acquired companies, including outside professional fees, non-capitalized costs associated with system integrations, non-lease branch and fleet relocation expenses, employee relocation and training costs, and other costs required to realize cost or revenue synergies.
• Transaction costs including legal and professional fees and other transaction specific related costs.
• Depreciation expense related to the implementation of a network optimization initiative.
• Equity-based executive transition costs.
• Other expense, including consulting expenses related to certain one-time projects, financing costs not classified as interest expense, gains and losses on disposals of property, plant, and equipment, unrealized gains and losses on investments, costs to implement the Company's real estate exits prior to approval of the Network Optimization Plan, and non-equity executive transition costs.
  

We define Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share provide useful information to investors regarding the performance of our business.

The following table provides reconciliations of Net income (loss) to Adjusted Net Income, Diluted earnings (loss) per share to Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share and weighted average diluted shares outstanding to Adjusted Weighted Average Diluted Shares Outstanding:

(1) For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, Other included $2.3 million and $3.8 million in costs to implement the Company's real estate exit initiatives prior to approval of the Network Optimization Plan and $3.8 million and $5.1 million in non-equity executive transition costs, respectively.

For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024, Other included $1.1 million and $42.4 million in legal and professional fees related to the terminated merger with McGrath, respectively.

(2) We include estimated taxes at our current statutory tax rate of approximately 26% for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, and 25% for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024.

(3) For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, diluted loss per share was based on weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 181,453 and 182,394 respectively, which excluded shares related to stock awards, as the effect would be anti-dilutive. The calculation of Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, was based on Adjusted Weighted Average Diluted Shares Outstanding of 181,861 and 183,336, respectively, as shares related to stock awards are dilutive for Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin

We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities; less purchases of rental equipment and property, plant and equipment and plus proceeds from sale of rental equipment and property, plant and equipment, which are all included in cash flows from investing activities; excluding one-time, nonrecurring payments for the transaction costs from terminated acquisitions. Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin is defined as Adjusted Free Cash Flow divided by Revenue. The Company believes that Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin are useful to investors because they provide additional information concerning cash flow available to fund our capital allocation alternatives and allow investors to compare cash generation performance over various reporting periods and against peers. The following table provides reconciliations of Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin:

Net CAPEX

We define Net CAPEX as purchases of rental equipment and refurbishments and purchases of property, plant and equipment, less proceeds from the sale of rental equipment and proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment, which are all included in cash flows from investing activities. Management believes that the presentation of Net CAPEX provides useful information regarding the net capital invested in our rental fleet and property, plant and equipment each year to assist in analyzing the performance of our business.

The following table provides reconciliations of Net CAPEX:

Return on Invested Capital

Return on Invested Capital is defined as Adjusted earnings before interest and amortization divided by Average Invested Capital. Management believes that the presentation of Return on Invested Capital provides useful information regarding the long-term health and profitability of the business relative to the Company's cost of capital. We define Adjusted earnings before interest and amortization as Adjusted EBITDA (see reconciliation above) reduced by depreciation and estimated taxes. We include estimated taxes at our current statutory tax rate of approximately 26%.

The Average Invested Capital is calculated as an average of Net Assets, a four quarter average for annual metrics and two quarter average for quarterly metrics. Net assets is defined for purposes of the calculation below as total assets less goodwill, intangible assets, net, and all non-interest bearing liabilities.

The following table provides reconciliations of Return on Invested Capital, which has been adjusted to reflect depreciation in 2025 related to real estate exits prior to initiating our Network Optimization Plan.
