Update on Capital Allocation
In Q4, the Company repurchased 12.6 million shares for $127 million. From January 1, 2026 through February 13, 2026, the Company repurchased an additional 1.2 million shares for $12 million. As a result of the successful execution of the share repurchase program, Pitney Bowes’ Board of Directors (the “Board”) recently increased the Company’s repurchase authorization by $250 million. As of February 13, 2026, there was $359 million in capacity remaining under the authorization.
In Q4, the Company reduced principal debt by $114 million through a combination of a tender offer for the 2037 and 2043 Notes, open market repurchases of the Term Loan B and 2027 Notes, and scheduled amortization payments.
The Board approved a regular quarterly dividend of $0.09 per share, payable on March 30, 2026, to shareholders of record as of February 27, 2026.
In Q4, the Company entered into buy-in contracts with insurance carriers to transfer the risk associated with approximately $875 million of projected benefit obligations from the Company’s U.S. Qualified and Canadian Qualified Pension Plans.

SendTech revenue decline in the fourth quarter was driven by the impact of prior year product migration and a decrease in the mailing install base. The product migration concluded at the end of 2024, and the Company expects segment year-over-year revenue decline to be less steep going forward. Shipping-related revenues declined 5% year-over-year in the fourth quarter.
SendTech achieved increased Adjusted EBITDA and EBIT through disciplined cost management. Gross margin expanded 180 basis points in the fourth quarter due to cost optimization actions and a shift to higher margin revenue streams. In the fourth quarter, operating expenses declined $28 million year-over-year primarily from cost reduction initiatives.
Presort Services
Presort Services provides sortation services that enable clients to qualify for USPS workshare discounts in First Class Mail, Marketing Mail, Marketing Mail Flats and Bound Printed Matter.

Revenue decline in the fourth quarter was driven by a 10% reduction in volumes due to previously communicated client losses and market decline. Total volume sorted in the fourth quarter 2025 was 3.4 billion pieces of mail.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA and EBIT declined due to the decrease in revenue and reduced operating leverage from lower volumes. This decline was partially offset by improved operating expenses and a favorable $5 million prior period accounting adjustment.

For the latest news, corporate announcements, and financial results, visit www.pitneybowes.com/us/newsroom. For additional information, visit Pitney Bowes at www.pitneybowes.com.
Adjusted Segment EBIT
Adjusted Segment EBIT is the primary measure of profitability and operational performance at the segment level. Adjusted Segment EBIT includes segment revenues and related costs and expenses attributable to the segment, but excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses, restructuring charges, and other items not allocated to a business segment. We also report Adjusted Segment EBITDA as an additional useful measure of segment profitability and operational performance, which is calculated as Adjusted Segment EBIT plus depreciation and amortization expense of the segment.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Pitney Bowes’ financial results are reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Pitney Bowes also discloses certain non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (Adjusted EBIT), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) and free cash flow.
Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS exclude the impact of restructuring charges, foreign currency gains and losses on intercompany loans, certain costs associated with the Ecommerce Restructuring, gains and losses on debt redemptions and other unusual items that we believe are not indicative to our core business operations.
Free cash flow adjusts cash flow from operations calculated in accordance with GAAP for capital expenditures, restructuring payments and other special items. Management believes free cash flow provides better insight into the amount of cash available for other discretionary uses.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures can be found in the attached financial schedules and at the Company's web site at: https://www.investorrelations.pitneybowes.com/. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures because items necessary for such reconciliation are not available on a reasonable basis without unreasonable efforts.
Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains “forward-looking statements” about the Company’s expected or potential future business and financial performance, including, but not limited to, statements about future revenue and profitability, earnings guidance, future events or conditions, capital allocation strategy, expected cost savings and efficiency improvements, and strategic initiatives and priorities. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Factors which could cause future performance to differ materially from expectations include, without limitation, changes in postal regulations or the operations and financial health of posts in the U.S. or other major markets or changes to the broader postal or shipping markets; declines in physical mail volumes or shipping volumes; the loss of customers, including some of our larger clients; changes in trade policies, tariffs and regulations; global supply chain issues adversely impacting our third party suppliers’ ability to provide us products and services; periods of difficult economic conditions, the impacts of inflation and rising prices, higher interest rates and a slow-down in economic activity, including a global recession, or a prolonged U.S. government shutdown, to the Company and our clients; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; changes in labor and transportation availability and costs; inability to successfully execute on our strategic initiatives; and other factors as more fully outlined in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Pitney Bowes assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information, events, or developments, except as required by law.
