(a)

Ending OEC — original equipment cost ("OEC") is the original equipment cost of units at the end of the measurement period.

(b)

Average OEC on rent — Average OEC on rent is calculated as the weighted-average OEC on rent during the stated period.

(c)

Fleet utilization — total number of days the rental equipment was rented during a specified period of time divided by the total number of days available during the same period and weighted based on OEC.

(d)

OEC on rent yield ("ORY") — a measure of return realized by our rental fleet during a 12-month period. ORY is calculated as rental revenue (excluding freight recovery and ancillary fees) during the stated period divided by the Average OEC on rent for the same period. For period less than 12 months, the ORY is adjusted to an annualized basis.

(e)

Sales order backlog — purchase orders received for customized and stock equipment. Sales order backlog should not be considered an accurate measure of future net sales.

Management Commentary
Total revenue in the second quarter of 2023 was characterized by continued strong customer demand for both rental and new equipment across our end markets. Second quarter 2023 rental revenue increased 9.0% to $122.2 million, compared to $112.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, reflecting the continued expansion of our rental fleet, stable utilization, and pricing gains. Equipment sales increased 38.3% in the second quarter of 2023 to $302.1 million, compared to $218.5 million in the second quarter of 2022, reflecting continuing improvements in the supply chain and our ability to replenish inventory. Parts sales and service revenue increased 3.2% to $32.5 million, compared to $31.5 million in the second quarter of 2022. On a sequential quarter basis, total second quarter of 2023 revenue increased $4.7 million, or 1.0%, primarily due to the expansion of rental fleet.

In our ERS segment, rental revenue in the second quarter of 2023 was $117.8 million compared to $108.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, a 9.0% increase. Fleet utilization continued to be strong at 81.7% compared to 82.8% in the second quarter of 2022, and average OEC on rent increased 4.6% year-over-year. Total segment gross profit in the second quarter of 2023 was $54.6 million, an increase of 22.2% compared to $44.7 million in the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted Gross Profit in the segment, was $97.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $87.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, representing 11.9% year-over-year growth. Rental Gross Profit improved to $86.5 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $80.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, a 7.8% increase. On a sequential quarter basis, total segment second quarter of 2023 revenue decreased $37.4 million, or 18.2%, driven by a 45.0% decrease in rental equipment sales from the first quarter’s record levels. Despite the decline, we experienced favorable pricing, with OEC on-rent yield increasing to a record 40.1% in the second quarter of 2023, up from 39.6% in the first quarter of 2023.

Revenue in our TES segment increased 38.7% to $251.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, from $181.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily as a result of continued supply chain improvements, greater order fulfillments as a result of record production levels, and sustained strong customer demand. Gross profit improved by 69.4% to $46.0 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $27.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. Gross profit margin for the quarter was 18.3%, up from 15.0% in the second quarter of 2022 and 16.3% to the first quarter of 2023. On a sequential quarter basis, total revenue in the second quarter of 2023 increased $42.3 million, or 20.2%.

APS segment revenue increased 3.9% in the second quarter of 2023 to $36.9 million, compared to $35.5 million in the second quarter of 2022. Growth in demand for parts, tools and accessories sales was augmented by increased tools and accessories rentals in the Parts, Tools and Accessories ("PTA") division. Gross profit margin in the segment slightly declined to 27.3% in the second quarter of 2023 from 30.9% in the second quarter of 2022. On a sequential quarter basis, total segment gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2023 increased 230 bps from 25.0%.

Net income was $11.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to net income of $13.6 million for the second quarter of 2022. The $2.0 million or 14.8% decrease in net income is primarily the result of higher interest expense on variable-rate debt and variable-rate floor plan liabilities, the change in fair value of the private warrants liability from a gain to a loss, and higher operating expenses, largely offset by gross profit expansion. On a sequential quarter basis, total second quarter of 2023 net income declined $2.2 million for the reasons mentioned above.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2023 was $103.2 million, an increase of 20.8%, compared to $85.4 million for the second quarter of 2022. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was largely driven by growth in rental revenue and new and used equipment sales, all of which contributed to margin expansion. On a sequential quarter basis, Adjusted EBITDA declined by $2.0 million.

As of June 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents was $42.2 million, Total Debt outstanding was $1,453.8 million, Net Debt was $1,414.9 million and Net Leverage Ratio was 3.3x. Availability under the senior secured credit facility was $254.5 million as of June 30, 2023, and $296.0 million of suppressed availability based on the borrowing base calculation, with the ability to upsize the facility. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, Ending OEC increased by $68.3 million as our fleet additions were only partially offset by our continued focus on selling older equipment from our rental fleet at current advantageous residual values. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, CTOS purchased $3.2 million of its common stock under the previously announced stock repurchase program.

OUTLOOK
We are updating our full-year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2023 at this time. We believe our ERS segment will continue to benefit from strong demand from our rental customers, higher average OEC on rent and for purchases of rental fleet units, particularly older equipment, in 2023. As we noted in our initial 2023 guidance, we also expect to grow our rental fleet (based on Ending OEC) by mid- to high-single digits this year. Regarding our TES segment, supply chain improvements, improved inventory levels, record production and backlog levels continue to improve our ability to produce and deliver an even greater number of units in 2023.

CTOS is not able to present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA for the year ending December 31, 2023 to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, because management cannot reliably present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA for the year ending December 31, 2023 to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, because management cannot reliably forecast net income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect GAAP net income including, but not limited to, customer buyout requests on rentals with rental purchase options, income tax expense and changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments. Adjusted EBITDA should not be used to predict net income as the difference between the two measures is variable.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL AND PERFORMANCE MEASURES
In our press release and schedules, and on the related conference call, we report certain financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We utilize these financial measures to manage our business on a day-to-day basis and some of these measures are commonly used in our industry to evaluate performance. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors expanded insight to assess performance, in addition to the standard GAAP-based financial measures. The press release schedules reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to each non-GAAP measure that we refer to. Although management evaluates and presents these non-GAAP measures for the reasons described herein, please be aware that these non-GAAP measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue, operating income/loss, net income/loss, earnings/loss per share or any other comparable operating measure prescribed by GAAP. In addition, we may calculate and/or present these non-GAAP financial measures differently than measures with the same or similar names that other companies report, and as a result, the non-GAAP measures we report may not be comparable to those reported by others.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial performance measure that we use to monitor our results of operations, to measure performance against debt covenants and performance relative to competitors. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure because it allows for an effective evaluation of operating performance, without regard to financing methods or capital structures. We exclude the items identified in the reconciliations of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts are either non-recurring or can vary substantially within the industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, including the method by which the assets were acquired, and capital structures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historical costs of depreciable assets, none of which are reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that results will be unaffected by the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be identical to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, and other items that we do not view as indicative of ongoing performance. Our Adjusted EBITDA includes an adjustment to exclude the effects of purchase accounting adjustments when calculating the cost of inventory and used equipment sold. When inventory or equipment is purchased in connection with a business combination, the assets are revalued to their current fair values for accounting purposes. The consideration transferred (i.e., the purchase price) in a business combination is allocated to the fair values of the assets as of the acquisition date, with amortization or depreciation recorded thereafter following applicable accounting policies; however, this may not be indicative of the actual cost to acquire inventory or new equipment that is added to product inventory or the rental fleets apart from a business acquisition. Additionally, the pricing of rental contracts and equipment sales prices for equipment is based on OEC, and we measure a rate of return from rentals and sales using OEC. We also include an adjustment to remove the impact of accounting for certain of our rental contracts with customers containing a rental purchase option that are accounted for under GAAP as a sales-type lease. We include this adjustment because we believe continuing to reflect the transactions as an operating lease better reflects the economics of the transactions given our large portfolio of rental contracts. These, and other, adjustments to GAAP net income or loss that are applied to derive Adjusted EBITDA are specified by our senior secured credit agreements.

Adjusted Gross Profit. We present total gross profit excluding rental equipment depreciation ("Adjusted Gross Profit") as a non-GAAP financial performance measure. This measure differs from the GAAP definition of gross profit, as we do not include the impact of depreciation expense, which represents non-cash expense. We use these measures to evaluate operating margins and the effectiveness of the cost of our rental fleet.

Net Debt. We present the non-GAAP financial measure "Net Debt," which is total debt (the most comparable GAAP measure, calculated as current and long-term debt, excluding deferred financing fees, plus current and long-term finance lease obligations) minus cash and cash equivalents. We believe this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors to evaluate our financial position.

Net Leverage Ratio. Net Leverage Ratio is a non-GAAP financial performance measure used by management and we believe it provides useful information to investors because it is an important liquidity measure that reflects our ability to service debt. We define net leverage ratio as net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income plus interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for non-cash purchase accounting impact, transaction and process improvement costs, including business integration expenses, share-based payments, the change in fair value of derivative instruments, sales-type lease adjustment, and other special charges that are not expected to recur. This non-GAAP measure is subject to certain limitations.

(1)

Represents the non-cash impact of purchase accounting, net of accumulated depreciation, on the cost of equipment and inventory sold. The equipment and inventory acquired received a purchase accounting step-up in basis, which is a non-cash adjustment to the equipment cost pursuant to our credit agreement.

(2)

Represents transaction and process improvement costs related to acquisitions of businesses, including post-acquisition integration costs, which are recognized within operating expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. These expenses are comprised of professional consultancy, legal, tax and accounting fees. Also included are expenses associated with the integration of acquired businesses. These expenses are presented as adjustments to net income pursuant to our ABL Credit Agreement.

(3)

Represents the adjustment for the impact of sales-type lease accounting for certain leases containing rental purchase options (or "RPOs"), as the application of sales-type lease accounting is not deemed to be representative of the ongoing cash flows of the underlying rental contracts. This adjustment is made pursuant to our credit agreement.
