Trimble Inc., the 10-K for 2026

Trimble sells software, hardware and services that connect what happens in an office with what happens on a site or in a vehicle. Its markets are building, civil and infrastructure construction, geospatial, natural resources, utilities and transportation, and its customers are asset owners, general and specialty contractors, architects, engineers and designers, surveyors, energy and utility companies, shippers and carriers, and governments. The strategy rests on two industry cloud platforms, one in construction and one in transportation and logistics, with common data environments underneath. Research, development, manufacturing and logistics operations sit in the United States, the Netherlands, India, Germany, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Finland, Canada and Sweden. There are three reportable segments.

Architects, Engineers, Construction and Owners

Software across the life of a building or asset. Architecture and interior design software includes SketchUp for design, visualisation, 3D modelling and construction documentation. Building information modelling and engineering software covers structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing, and civil and infrastructure modelling. Construction software covers estimating and takeoff, project management, modular fabrication, financial management, business operations and supply chain management for contractors of all kinds. Owner software handles asset lifecycle management from planning through maintenance for facility and asset owners in the private and public sectors. The segment sells through direct, indirect and digital channels, including a network of independent distributors and BuildingPoint dealers for building construction.

Field Systems

Software, hardware and services for surveying and mapping professionals, civil construction, building construction field services and positioning systems, sold mainly through a global network of independent distribution partners and increasingly direct and digital. Geospatial products replace conventional surveying, mapping, modelling, monitoring and measurement, using high precision satellite positioning, robotic measurement systems, inertial positioning, 3D laser scanning, digital imaging and optical or laser measurement in the field, with office software for planning, processing, quality control, 3D modelling, feature extraction, deformation monitoring and reporting. The civil engineering and construction portfolio runs from feasibility, budgeting and design through construction, operation and maintenance, serving owners, design engineers, consultants, contractors and suppliers. Joint ventures with Nikon, which designs and manufactures surveying instruments in Japan, and with Hilti, on measuring solutions for building construction trades, sit in this part of the business.

Transportation and Logistics

Solutions for shippers, carriers, retailers and intermediaries, with a substantial position in the truckload freight market. The portfolio divides into carrier transportation management software and maintenance, sold as Enterprise; shipper transportation management, dock and yard and marketplace software, sold as Transporeon; and mapping and routing, sold as MAPS. The Trimble Transportation Cloud gives shippers and carriers information for bid and contract award decisions, and Transporeon runs a marketplace where shippers, forwarders, carriers and retailers connect and digitise their transportation management.

How the software is sold

Software is sold as subscription services, including consumption and term licences, or as perpetual licences, hosted as software as a service or provisioned for use on the customer's own premises, and the company has extended its capabilities to run in multi-cloud environments. Its offerings range from embedded real-time firmware to software that integrates data with large-scale enterprise back-office systems, and many are extensible so users can tailor them to their own processes. Going to market uses direct sales, independent dealers, joint ventures including with Caterpillar, AGCO, Hilti and Nikon, original equipment manufacturer arrangements and distribution alliances.

Strategy and people

The Connect & Scale strategy has two parts: Connect, joining more customer workflows and industry lifecycles, moving more of the offering to subscription and adding AI capabilities; and Scale, investing in the people, processes and technology that let the platforms grow, standardising internal processes. The company employed over 11,500 full-time and part-time people at the end of 2025, the overwhelming majority full-time, working in over 40 countries, with approximately 41% in North America, 35% in Europe, 21% in Asia-Pacific and 3% in the rest of the world.

Read moreFree cash flow is operating cash flow less capital expenditure; the effective tax rate is income tax over pre-tax income; margins are the line over revenue. Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and operating income is revenue less the company's own total costs, where the statement does not print those lines. Those four are arithmetic on the filed numbers; everything else is as filed.
