Livonia, MI. - November 9, 2026 - Alta Equipment Group Inc. (NYSE: ALTG) (“Alta”, "we", "our" or the “Company”), a leading provider of premium material handling, construction and environmental processing equipment and related services, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
CEO Comment:
Ryan Greenawalt, Chief Executive Officer of Alta, said “Our third quarter results reflect the progress we are making to generate stronger earnings and returns from a more efficient capital base. Adjusted EBITDA increased approximately 8% year over year to $44.9 million despite a meaningfully smaller investment in rental fleet and inventory. Since year-end, we have reduced the combined carrying value of inventory and net rental fleet by approximately $45 million. Additionally, we lowered adjusted total net debt and floor plan payables by approximately $20 million in the quarter and reduced third quarter operating expenses by $2.9 million year over year. These actions are translating into improved profitability, lower interest expense, stronger cash generation and better returns on invested capital, and they remain central to how we will manage the business going forward.”
Mr. Greenawalt continued, “Within Material Handling, the improvement in demand that we began to see earlier this year continued during the third quarter, with bookings increasing 67% year over year and backlog continuing to grow. We believe this strength reflects improving industry conditions and customers beginning to address pent-up replacement needs following an extended period of fleet replacement deferrals. While the pace at which new equipment backlog is converting to revenues has been slower than we expected, we view this primarily as a timing issue rather than a change in underlying customer demand. As throughput improves, we expect the significant increase in bookings and backlog to translate into higher equipment deliveries and revenues. We believe this provides improved visibility and a meaningful base of future revenues as we move through the fourth quarter and into 2027. Our Construction Equipment segment’s performance this year is a particularly good example of our focus on capital efficiency. During the quarter, the segment generated 5.0% year-over-year revenue growth and 11.2% Adjusted EBITDA growth while operating with approximately $78 million less in period-end assets than a year ago. This is an important proof point for the work we have done to improve fleet utilization, optimize inventory, and focus the organization on returns on capital deployed.”
EARNINGS PRESS RELEASE
In conclusion, Mr. Greenawalt said, “Looking ahead, infrastructure spending and state DOT budgets remain supportive across our markets while the strength in Material Handling bookings and backlog provides an additional source of momentum entering 2027. Combined with the progress we have made on our cost structure, working capital, and balance sheet, we believe these trends will allow Alta to enter next year from a position of strength.”
Full Year 2026 Financial Guidance and Other Financial Notes:
The Company revised its guidance range and now expects to report Adjusted EBITDA* between $165.0 million and $170.0 million for the 2026 fiscal year.

EARNINGS PRESS RELEASE
Alta’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Alta cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive, and readers should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we disclose non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Organic revenues, Adjusted total net debt and floor plan payables, Adjusted pre-tax net income (loss), and Adjusted basic and diluted pre-tax net income (loss) per share, in this press release because we believe they are useful performance measures that assist in an effective evaluation of our operating performance when compared to our peers, without regard to financing methods or capital structure. We believe such measures are useful for investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management. However, such measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or in isolation from, net income (loss), revenues, operating profit, debt, or any other operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense (not including floor plan interest paid on new equipment), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for certain one-time, non-recurring or non-cash items, and items not necessarily indicative of our underlying operating performance. We exclude these items from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts are either non-cash, non-recurring, or can vary substantially within the industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, and the method by which the assets were acquired. We define organic revenue growth as revenue growth excluding the impact of acquisitions or divestitures that do not appear fully in both periods in the current and prior years. We believe organic revenue growth is a meaningful metric to investors as it provides a more consistent comparison of our revenues across reported periods as well as to industry peers. Management uses Adjusted total net debt and floor plan payables to reflect the Company's estimated financial obligations less cash and floor plan payables on new equipment ("FPNP"). The FPNP is used to finance the Company's new inventory, with its principal balance changing daily as equipment is purchased and sold and the sale proceeds are used to repay the notes. Consequently, in managing the business, management views the FPNP as interest bearing accounts payable, representing the cost of acquiring the equipment that is then repaid when the equipment is sold, as the Company's floor plan credit agreements require repayment when such pieces of equipment are sold. The Company believes excluding the FPNP from the Company's total debt for this purpose provides management with supplemental information regarding the Company's capital structure and leverage profile and assists investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by Company management and research analysts. Adjusted total net debt and floor plan payables should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's debt obligations, as reported in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted pre-tax net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to reflect certain one-time, non-cash or non-recurring items, and other items not necessarily indicative of our underlying operating performance. Adjusted basic and diluted pre-tax net income (loss) per share is defined as adjusted pre-tax net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares, respectively, outstanding during the period. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, organic revenues, Adjusted total net debt and floor plan payables, Adjusted pre-tax net income (loss), and Adjusted basic and diluted pre-tax net income (loss) per share are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance. For example, items such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, certain one-time, non-cash or non-recurring items as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, are not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted pre-tax net income (loss). Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Organic revenues, Adjusted total net debt and floor plan payables, Adjusted pre-tax net income (loss), and Adjusted pre-tax basic and diluted net income (loss) per share should not be construed as an indication that results will be unaffected by the items excluded from these metrics. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Organic revenues, Adjusted total net debt and floor plan payables, Adjusted pre-tax net income (loss), and Adjusted basic and diluted pre-tax net income (loss) per share may not be identical to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to their most comparable measures under GAAP, please see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this press release.
