Revising 2025 full year guidance
MESA, Ariz., October 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Verra Mobility Corporation (NASDAQ: VRRM), a leading provider of smart mobility technology solutions, announced today the financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
“We delivered a strong third quarter with all key financial measures ahead of our internal expectations,” said David Roberts, President and CEO, Verra Mobility. “Driven primarily by the New York City red-light expansion change order, the Company generated 16 percent revenue growth compared to the third quarter of 2024. Based on our strong year-to-date performance and our outlook for the fourth quarter, we are increasing Full Year 2025 revenue guidance and reaffirming all other guidance measures.”
Third Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
Revenue: Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $261.9 million, an increase of 16% compared to $225.6 million for the third quarter of 2024. Service revenue growth was 12%, driven by 19% growth in our Government Solutions segment and 7% growth from our Commercial Services segment. Government Solutions service revenue growth was driven primarily by the New York City Department of Transportation (“NYCDOT”) red-light expansion program, as well as the expansion of bus lane and school bus stop arm enforcement programs, and the growth in Commercial Services revenue was due to increases in product adoption, tolling activity, and our European operations. Parking Solutions service revenue increased by $0.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2024, as increased revenue from our software as a service (“SaaS”) product offerings and professional services revenue was offset by a decrease in subscription services revenue related to parking management solutions.
Net income and Earnings Per Share (EPS): Net income for the third quarter of 2025 was $46.8 million, or $0.29 per share, based on 161.9 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Net income for the comparable 2024 period was $34.7 million, or $0.21 per share, based on 167.6 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The increase in net income for the third quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to increased income from operations along with a decrease in interest expense compared to the prior year period.
Adjusted EPS*: Adjusted EPS for the third quarter of 2025 was $0.37 per share compared to $0.32 per share for the third quarter of 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA*: Adjusted EBITDA was $113.3 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $104.7 million for the same period in 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 43% and 46% of total revenue for the 2025 and 2024 periods, respectively.
Net Cash Provided from Operations: Cash provided by operating activities decreased by approximately $31.1 million from $108.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $77.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due primarily to an increase in accounts receivable compared to the prior year period.
Free Cash Flow*: Free Cash Flow was $49.0 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $85.1 million for the prior year period.
*Non-GAAP measure; refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” further below for explanatory notes and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
We report our results of operations based on three operating segments:
Commercial Services offers automated toll and violations management and title and registration solutions to rental car companies, fleet management companies, and other large fleet owners.
Government Solutions delivers automated safety solutions to municipalities, school districts, and government agencies, including services and technology that enable photo enforcement cameras to detect and process traffic violations related to speed, red-light, school bus, and city bus lane management.
Parking Solutions provides an integrated suite of parking software, transaction processing, and hardware solutions to universities, municipalities, parking operators, healthcare facilities, and transportation hubs in the United States and Canada.
Third Quarter 2025 Segment Detail
The Commercial Services segment generated total revenue of $117.3 million, a 7% increase compared to $109.1 million in the same period in 2024. Segment profit was $78.3 million, a 7% increase from $72.9 million in the prior year period. The increases in revenue and segment profit compared to the prior year period resulted from an increase in product adoption, tolling activity, and our European operations, partially offset by lower revenue from our fleet management company customers due to customer churn. The segment profit margin was 67% for both of the third quarters of 2025 and 2024.
The Government Solutions segment generated total revenue of $122.6 million, a 28% increase compared to $95.9 million in the same period in 2024. The increase was due to a 19% increase in service revenue over the prior year period, primarily driven by $10.7 million increase from installation service revenue from the NYCDOT red-light expansion program as well as the expansion of bus lane and school bus stop arm enforcement programs. In addition, product revenue increased approximately $9.4 million from the prior year period; of which $6.3 million was driven by the NYCDOT red-light expansion program. The segment profit was $31.3 million in 2025 compared to $28.1 million in the prior year period with segment profit margins of 26% for 2025 and 29% for 2024. The decline in segment profit margins compared to the prior year period was primarily driven by increased costs to support project implementations and NYCDOT readiness costs.
The Parking Solutions segment generated total revenue of $22.1 million, a 7% increase compared to $20.6 million in the same period in 2024 which was due primarily to an increase in one-time product sales compared to the prior year period. The segment profit was $3.8 million compared to $3.7 million in the prior year period with segment profit margins of 17% for 2025 and 18% for 2024.
Liquidity and Debt: As of September 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents were $196.1 million and long-term debt net was $1,029.9 million, and we generated $77.7 million in net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Net Debt and Net Leverage*: As of September 30, 2025, Net Debt was $842.7 million and Net Leverage was 2.0x, as compared to $968.0 million and 2.4x as of December 31, 2024.
*Non-GAAP measure; refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” further below for explanatory notes and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
New York City Department of Transportation Red-Light Camera Expansion and New Contract Update
On March 31, 2025, NYCDOT announced that it identified the Company as the vendor to manage New York City’s automated enforcement camera safety programs. The Company and NYCDOT are engaged in negotiations with respect to the contract, which is expected to have an initial term of five years with an option for the parties to extend for an additional five years. The estimated total contract value for the first five-year term is approximately $963 million, and the contract is expected to provide that NYCDOT will purchase its equipment from the Company.
In the third quarter of 2025, NYCDOT instructed us, through a change order to our existing contract, to install up to 250 red-light cameras by year-end 2025 as part of a legislatively authorized expansion. The Company installed 130 red-light cameras during the third quarter of 2025, which contributed about $17 million of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, of which, approximately $6 million was product revenue and about $11 million was installation services revenue. Total expected revenue from the NYCDOT red-light camera expansion program for 2025 is approximately $30 million, of which approximately $10 million is expected to be product revenue and approximately $20 million is expected to be installation services revenue.
Stockholder Repurchase Expansion Approval
In May 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to an aggregate amount of $100.0 million of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), over an 18-month period. On October 23, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a $150.0 million increase to the size of the share repurchase program, authorizing share repurchases up to an aggregate $250.0 million. Under the repurchase program, we may purchase shares of Class A Common Stock until November 13, 2026 through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and accelerated share repurchase agreements, each as permitted under applicable rules and regulations. The amount and timing of repurchases will be determined at our discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and alternative investment opportunities. The repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of Class A Common Stock or at any specific time intervals and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time. We have not yet repurchased shares of Class A Common Stock under this repurchase program.
2025 Full Year Guidance
Any guidance that we provide is subject to change as a variety of factors can affect actual operating results. Certain of the factors that may impact our actual operating results are identified below in the safe harbor language included within Forward-Looking Statements of this press release.
We are providing the following forward-looking guidance, which includes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS, and Free Cash Flow, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures (defined below).
Based on our year-to-date 2025 results and our outlook for the fourth quarter, we are increasing revenue guidance as follows and reaffirming all other guidance measures
Total Revenue of $955 million to $965 million, up from a prior range of $925 million to $935 million
The remainder of the financial guidance measures remain unchanged due to one-time readiness costs to support requirements of the new NYCDOT contract and are as follows:
Adjusted EBITDA of $410 million to $420 million
Adjusted EPS of $1.30 to $1.35
Free Cash Flow of $175 million to $185 million
Underlying Assumptions for 2025 Full Year Guidance
Weighted average fully diluted share count expected to be approximately 162 million shares for the full year 2025
Effective tax rate (including state taxes) is expected to be 28.5% to 29.5%, with approximately $45 million in total cash taxes expected to be paid in 2025. The effective tax rate for non-GAAP adjustments is provided in the Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Calculation of Adjusted EPS
Depreciation and amortization expense expected to be approximately $110 million for 2025
Total interest expense, net expected to be approximately $70 million, of which approximately $65 million is expected to be net cash interest paid
Change in working capital (change in operating assets and liabilities) is expected to result in a use of cash of approximately $15 million for 2025
Capital expenditures (purchases of installation and service parts and property and equipment) are expected to be approximately $110 million for 2025
Long-Term Financial Outlook
We are also providing a preliminary view of our anticipated 2026 outlook in advance of providing guidance in our fourth quarter earnings call. This preliminary outlook assumes we will consummate our contract negotiations and enter into the New York renewal agreement, effective January 1, 2026. Driven primarily by the change order to our existing NYCDOT contract and red-light camera installations shifting from 2026 into 2025, we anticipate mid-single digit total consolidated revenue growth for fiscal year 2026. In addition, we expect Adjusted EBITDA margins to decline 250 to 300 basis points for fiscal year 2026 due to both portfolio mix and impacts from the new NYCDOT contract.
Please refer to slides 12 and 13 of the Verra Mobility Q3 2025 Earnings Presentation available on the Investor Relations section of our website at ir.verramobility.com for a detailed long-term outlook and assumptions underlying the new NYCDOT contract and Government Solutions segment forward-looking financial forecasts and a preliminary 2026 consolidated outlook.

In addition, no assurance can be given that any plan, initiative, projection, goal, commitment, expectation, or prospect set forth in this press release can or will be achieved. This press release should be read in conjunction with the information included in our other press releases, reports, and other filings with the SEC. Additional information regarding the factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements is available in our SEC filings, including our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K and 2025 Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this release and except to the extent required by applicable law, we do not assume any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events and developments, or otherwise. Understanding the information contained in these filings is important in order to fully understand our reported financial results and our business outlook for future periods.
Additional Information
We periodically provide information for investors on our corporate website, www.verramobility.com, and our investor relations website, ir.verramobility.com.
We intend to use our website including our quarterly earnings presentation as a means of disclosing material non-public information, additional financial and operating metrics, and for complying with disclosure obligations under Regulation FD. Accordingly, investors should monitor our website, in addition to following our press releases, SEC filings, and public conference calls and webcasts.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial information in this press release. These financial measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and are not intended to be, and should not be, considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Net Debt, and Net Leverage are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC rules. These non-GAAP financial measures may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. As a result, they may not be comparable to similarly titled performance measures presented by other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measurements to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measurements have been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations.
We are not providing a quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS or Free Cash Flow which are included in our 2025 financial guidance above, in reliance on the “unreasonable efforts” exception for forward-looking non-GAAP measures set forth in SEC rules because certain financial information, the probable significance of which cannot be determined, is not available and cannot be reasonably estimated without unreasonable effort and expense. In this regard, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income, Adjusted EPS to net income per share and Free Cash Flow to net cash provided by operating activities, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Due to the uncertainty of estimates and assumptions used in preparing forward-looking non-GAAP measures, we caution investors that actual results could differ materially from these non-GAAP financial projections.
We use the non-GAAP metrics EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA Margin to measure our performance from period to period, to evaluate and fund incentive compensation programs and to compare our results to those of our competitors. We use the non-GAAP metrics Free Cash Flow in connection with managing the business and we use the non-GAAP metrics “Net Debt” and “Net Leverage” to understand our overall leverage position and to evaluate capital allocation decisions. In addition, we also believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding financial and business trends related to our results of operations and that when non-GAAP financial information is viewed with GAAP financial information, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of our ongoing operating performance, liquidity and leverage relative to other periods. These non-GAAP measures have certain limitations as analytical tools and should not be used as substitutes for net income, cash flows from operations, earnings per share, other consolidated income, cash flow or debt data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
We define “EBITDA” as net income adjusted to exclude interest expense, net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. "Adjusted EBITDA" further excludes certain non-cash expenses and non-recurring items.
Free Cash Flow
We define “Free Cash Flow” as net cash flow provided by operating activities less purchases of installation and service parts and property and equipment.
Adjusted Net Income
We define “Adjusted Net Income” as net income adjusted to exclude amortization of intangibles and certain non-cash or non-recurring expenses such as change in fair value of interest rate swap, loss on extinguishment of debt, among other items.
Adjusted EPS
We define “Adjusted EPS” as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average shares for the period.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We define “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue.
Net Debt
We define “Net Debt” as total long-term debt, net excluding original issue discounts and unamortized deferred financing costs, less cash and cash equivalents.
Net Leverage
We define “Net Leverage” as Net Debt divided by the trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA as of the current quarter-end.
Additional Metrics
Recurring Revenue or Recurring Service Revenue
We define “Recurring Revenue” or “Recurring Service Revenue” as all revenue other than product sales for each of our segments, as we typically generate revenue on a recurring monthly basis under long-term contracts with our customers. This includes our Commercial Services segment where we generate service revenue through processing of tolls, violations, and titles and registrations.
