About EquipmentShare.com Inc
Source: Item 1 (Business) from the 10-K filed March 19, 2026. Description as filed by the company with the SEC.
Item 1. Business
Overview
EquipmentShare is a vertically integrated platform that combines proprietary technology, a connected
equipment fleet, and a nationwide footprint to serve the construction industry. More than a rental company,
EquipmentShare delivers jobsite visibility and control through its cloud-based platform (“T3”), which integrates
embedded telematics hardware, software applications, and real-time data to support both customers and internal
operations. The T3 platform is original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”)-agnostic and gives us and our rental
customers the ability to track mixed fleets, maximize utilization, reduce unplanned downtime, streamline
maintenance, and improve jobsite security and operator accountability.
We utilize our proprietary T3 platform in our equipment rental and service operations to manage construction
equipment that is owned by the Company, as well as construction equipment that is leased from third party
participants in the Company’s “OWN Program.” Under the OWN Program, participants may purchase from the
Company new or used (typically less than four years old) equipment which is fully enabled with T3. Concurrently,
the participant and the Company enter into a lease agreement whereby this qualified equipment is placed on our T3
platform, to be rented to third party users. Rental revenue generated from equipment enrolled under the OWN
Program is divided and shared between the Company and the owner of the equipment, and for the duration of the

arrangement we manage the owner’s equipment utilizing the T3 platform. At the end of the sharing period under the
OWN Program, we may assist the owner with remarketing services if the equipment is to be sold in the market as
used construction equipment. We also offer several add-on services to the owner of the equipment.
In addition to equipment rentals, we also offer complementary products and services, such as equipment parts,
supplies, services, and select jobsite support offerings. These products and services are integrated with the T3
platform to support broader jobsite needs as part of our equipment rental and services operations. We offer new and
used equipment for sale to customers. Separately, we offer telematics software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) subscriptions,
supported by embedded telematics hardware to customers who use the digital tools to monitor fleet performance,
manage maintenance, and oversee jobsite activity through a single platform. We develop and enhances these tools
and services with input from customers. We also retail building materials and hardware supplies to customers.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had 352 full-service branches, 9 dealership sites, and 24 building
materials and hardware retail stores located across 45 states in the U.S. Our full-service, technology-enabled model
supports multiple customer touchpoints and allows it to operate a high-quality, diversified rental fleet. Our branch
network also serves as an effective distribution channel for fleet disposition and supports related activities including
new and used equipment sales, parts, supplies and services. We are an authorized dealer for JLG, Takeuchi, Skyjack,
Genie, and other major brands of construction and aerial equipment, and we offer equipment rentals, parts, and
services.
Competition
The equipment rental industry in the U.S. is large, fragmented, and highly competitive. As of December 31,
2024, there were more than 9,640 equipment rental providers operating in the U.S., ranging from large national and
regional operators to small, independently owned businesses. According to internal estimates based on market data,
the five largest rental providers accounted for approximately 36% of North American construction equipment rental
revenue in 2024, with the remaining share divided among hundreds of local and specialized firms.
We compete with a wide range of market participants. These include national and regional rental operators with
substantial financial and fleet resources; independently owned providers that serve local markets or niche
geographies; equipment dealerships that also offer rentals alongside new and used equipment sales; and software or
telematics vendors focused on construction asset tracking. While many of these companies compete on fleet
availability, price, or regional density, few have made meaningful investments in technology infrastructure or
integrated jobsite management solutions.
We believe that competition in our industry is primarily shaped by a provider’s ability to deliver availability,
pricing, service responsiveness, delivery speed, and technology integration, particularly for customers managing
complex or distributed projects. EquipmentShare competes by offering a vertically integrated platform that
combines physical scale, digital control, and capital efficiency. Our proprietary T3 software platform is embedded
across our rental fleet and operations, enabling real-time visibility into equipment location, health, and usage,
predictive maintenance, remote access control, and automated service and dispatch workflows.
Customers
We serve a broad base of customers from local contractors to national construction and industrial firms from our
352 rental branches, 9 dealership sites, and 24 building materials and hardware retail store locations across 45 states.
Our focus remains on industrial and non-residential sectors such as infrastructure, manufacturing, and energy, which
accounted for 87% of rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.
We are well established in key growth corridors in the United States (the “U.S.”) across the Gulf Coast,
Southwest, Midwest, and Southeast, with ongoing expansion into underpenetrated regions like the Northeast and
West Coast. Many site launches are initiated by national and regional customers seeking consistent access to fleet,
service, and T3 capabilities across markets.
Our top five rental customers accounted for only 3.8% of equipment rental and related services revenue during
the year ended December 31, 2025, reflecting a highly diversified base. Our T3 platform is embedded in every rental
and enables real-time visibility, access control, and utilization insights and underscores our ability to drive deeper
customer relationships and recurring spend.
Fleet Sourcing and Equipment Financing
We source our equipment rental fleet from which we support and generate our equipment rental revenue
through a combination of equipment that we purchase and own, equipment owned by OWN Program participants
and leased by us to be re-rented to our customers in exchange for a share of the rental revenue, and equipment
owned by financial institutions and leased by us.
Our primary corporate financing vehicle is our senior secured asset-based lending facility which provides
working capital and supports fleet purchases. We also have outstanding second lien secured notes that offer long-
term capital to fund growth and operations. In addition, we utilize equipment-specific financing arrangements,
including finance leases and secured loans with third-party lenders such as banks and specialty finance providers.
We also use OEM floorplan financing to purchase equipment, primarily for resale at our dealership locations.
These arrangements are generally secured by the underlying equipment and offered by manufacturers or their
captive finance affiliates.
A significant portion of our rental fleet is deployed through the OWN Program, a capital-efficient arrangement
in which third-party investors purchase equipment from us. We operate and service the equipment on our rental
platform to be rented to third party customers, while maintaining full control of pricing, customer relationships, and
operations. OWN Program participants receive a share of rental revenue, generated from the rental of their
equipment, and, in certain arrangements, we retain the right to purchase the equipment at an independently appraised
value at the end of the program term. As of December 31, 2025, equipment enrolled under the OWN Program with
original equipment cost (“OEC”) of approximately $4.9 billion represented approximately 56% of our total rental
fleet.
Fleet Composition
As of December 31, 2025, our equipment rental fleet from which we generate our equipment rental revenue
consisted of approximately 252,252 units with an OEC of $8.8 billion. Our equipment rental fleet is comprised of
equipment that we own, equipment that is leased from OWN Program participants, and equipment under operating
leases with financial institutions. As of December 31, 2025, the average age of the fleet was 31 months, which we
believe is among the youngest in the industry. A younger fleet supports greater reliability, higher uptime, and lower
lifecycle maintenance costs.
The fleet includes a broad range of equipment categories such as telehandlers, excavators, compact track
loaders, boom lifts, dozers, scissor lifts, generators, and other project-critical assets. It is sourced from leading
OEMs and diversified across asset classes to support a wide range of end markets, including commercial, industrial,
and infrastructure construction.
We structure our fleet to reflect the needs of our customers’ jobsites. By investing in the types of equipment our
customers rely on, we seek to provide comprehensive coverage across their workflows and serve as a full-service
partner. Our fleet strategy is informed by real-time insights into customer demand, utilization patterns, and regional
activity surfaced through our T3 platform.
We actively monitor performance and rebalance our fleet based on asset-level utilization, service requirements,
and shifting regional demand. T3 enables us to redeploy underutilized equipment across markets and allocate new
investment toward high-performing asset classes. In recent years, we have expanded our mix of specialty equipment
to meet growing demand for advanced solutions on complex jobsites, while maintaining a strong foundation in core
rental categories.
Original Equipment Manufacturer Suppliers
We source our rental and resale equipment from a broad range of leading OEMs, including JLG, JCB, John
Deere, Komatsu, Hitachi, CASE, Takeuchi, Cummins, Genie, and Toyota. Our fleet spans all major rental
equipment categories and includes both general and specialty assets suited to large-scale commercial, industrial, and
infrastructure projects.
As a result of our scale and consistent fleet investment, we are one of the largest equipment purchasers in the
industry, as evidenced by our equipment spend of $1.8 billion in 2025. We believe our buying power is comparable
to the largest rental providers, enabling us to secure competitive pricing, priority allocation of high-demand assets,
and consistent delivery across equipment cycles. This purchasing scale provides us with a meaningful advantage in
maintaining fleet availability, cost efficiency, and equipment quality across our growing national footprint.
We maintain close relationships with our OEM partners and coordinate regularly on forecasting, delivery
logistics, and product support. In many cases, OEMs install T3-compatible tracking devices at the point of
manufacture, allowing for seamless integration into our platform and faster deployment. We are committed to
strong, long-term partnerships with our OEM suppliers as we continue to scale our fleet and expand our presence
across the U.S.
Sales and Marketing
We maintain dedicated sales teams aligned to each of our core revenue streams: equipment rental and related
services, equipment sales, equipment parts and supplies and services, telematics and sales of building materials and
hardware supplies. This structure enables us to tailor engagement strategies based on customer type and product
offering. Our rental sales team serves a broad range of customers, including national, regional, and local contractors.
Sales activity is supported by data and insights from our T3 platform, which allows our teams to anticipate
equipment needs, recommend solutions, and respond to shifting project requirements.
Our commercial model is designed to support customers in managing fleet deployment, logistics, and
operational workflows across complex and distributed jobsites. In addition to rental, we employ specialized teams
for equipment sales and T3 software subscriptions. Sales representatives receive regular technical training, including
from OEM partners, to maintain product fluency.
We support our sales efforts with targeted marketing across digital, trade, and local channels to drive brand
awareness and customer acquisition.
Product Warranties
Product warranties for new equipment sales and parts are typically provided by our OEM partners. The term
and scope of these warranties vary greatly by supplier and by product. The OEMs pay us for repairs we perform to
equipment under warranty in our territories.
Seasonality
The demand for our construction rental equipment tends to be lower in the winter months, and equipment rental
performance will generally correlate to the levels of current construction activities, so the severity of weather
conditions can have an impact. Our business, especially in the construction industry, has historically experienced
lower levels of business (including lower demand and utilization) from December until late spring, particularly in
the northernmost states where we operate, and heightened activity during the third quarter and the fourth quarter
until December. The effect of seasonality on our results of operations has increased gradually as we have continued
our expansion in the northern U.S.
However, given our geographic concentration in more southern regions of the U.S., seasonality is not as
pronounced in our business as compared to some of our national and regional competitors.
Information Technology
Our operations depend on a combination of proprietary systems and third-party infrastructure. T3, our internally
developed platform, integrates embedded hardware, cloud software, and data analytics to manage fleet operations,
customer workflows, and service delivery. It is designed and maintained by our in-house engineering and product
teams. T3 also underpins internal workflows related to dispatch, service coordination, and fleet management.
We use third-party service providers for a range of IT functions, including cloud hosting, data processing, and
geospatial visualization. Our T3 platform is designed to be interoperable with a wide range of customer-owned
equipment, OEM systems, and mobile operating environments, enabling deployment across mixed fleets and
devices.
We license software, technologies, and intellectual property from external vendors, and incorporate open-source
software into aspects of our platform. We maintain internal controls to manage compliance with open-source
licensing obligations and to safeguard our proprietary source code.
As our platform and customer base grow, we continue to invest in the scalability, reliability, and security of our
systems, including internal processes for monitoring risk related to third-party providers and technology
dependencies.
Human Capital
Employees
As of December 31, 2025, we employed 8,206 individuals across our 385 operating locations. Our headcount
has grown in line with the expansion of our rental footprint and platform services. We believe our relationships with
employees are positive and we have not experienced any work stoppages.
A portion of our workforce is subject to collective bargaining agreements. As of December 31, 2025, 28
locations were covered by such agreements, representing approximately 2.8% of our employees.
We continue to invest in workforce development to support our growth and operational capabilities. Employee
levels may vary based on business activity, market expansion, or seasonal factors.
Health and Safety
The health and safety of our employees is a core operational focus. We maintain safety protocols and training
programs designed to support compliance with applicable laws and to promote safe practices across our branches
and jobsites. Our management team regularly reviews safety performance, and safety metrics are included in the
evaluation of site and operational leadership. We continue to invest in systems, equipment, and training in an effort
to reduce risk and support a safe working environment as our operations scale.
Talent Development and Employee Training
We provide training programs to support employee development, operational readiness, and safety. Our training
includes onboarding for new hires, OEM-led equipment instruction, and role-specific learning across rental
operations, service, and platform sales. As our footprint has expanded, we have continued to invest in field training
resources and internal systems to support consistent execution across branches. In addition, we offer ongoing
development opportunities for technical, sales, and leadership roles to support career growth and organizational
scalability.
Compensation and Benefits
We are committed to providing competitive compensation and benefits programs for our employees, as we
believe competitive compensation arrangements are core to an engaged and productive employee base. We believe
our compensation programs align individual compensation with individual and team contributions to both our
culture and our performance results.
Environmental and Safety Regulations
Our facilities and operations are subject to numerous national, state and local regulations governing
environmental protection and occupational health and safety matters. These laws govern such issues as wastewater,
storm water, solid and hazardous wastes and materials, air quality and matters of workplace safety.
For example, the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980
(“CERCLA”) and comparable state laws impose joint and several liability for the investigation, remediation and
monitoring of contamination of hazardous substances that have been released into the environment without regard to
fault or the legality of the original conduct on certain classes of persons that contributed to the release. Such liability
may extend to current owners and operators of a facility, past owners and operators at the time the hazardous wastes
were disposed, generators and parties that arranged for disposal or transport of the hazardous substances, and
transporters of hazardous waste. The scope and types of hazardous substances regulated under CERCLA may be
revised from time to time and we continue to monitor these and other regulatory developments.
