LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We finance our operations, co-investment activity, share repurchases, capital expenditures and business acquisitions with internally generated funds, borrowings on our Facility, and through issuance of Long-term debt and commercial paper.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Operating activities used $767.6 million of cash in the first three months of 2025, compared with $677.5 million of cash used in operating activities during the same period in 2024. Incremental cash outflow in the first quarter was primarily attributable to (i) the timing of Net reimbursables activity, (ii) higher commission payments in the first quarter of 2025 compared with the prior-year quarter (reflecting higher transactional revenue activity in Q4 2024 compared with Q4 2023). These drivers outpaced the increase in cash provided by earnings.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

We used $152.8 million of cash for investing activities during the first three months of 2025, compared with $54.3 million used during the same period in 2024. The increase in cash used for investing activities was attributable to our $100 million contribution to JLL Income Property Trust ("JLL IPT"), an Investment Management flagship fund, in January 2025. We discuss other drivers of investing activity below in further detail.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Financing activities provided $900.7 million of cash during the first three months of 2025, compared with $703.4 million provided during the same period in 2024. This increase in cash provided by financing activities was driven by utilization of our commercial paper program, launched in the second quarter of 2024, to support the $100 million investment in JLL IPT as well as the higher cash flow used in operating activities, both noted above.
