4Q 2025 Earnings Release

January 29, 2026

**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE**

**<u>Cat Financial Reports Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2025 Results</u>**

**<u>Fourth-Quarter 2025 vs. Fourth-Quarter 2024</u>**

Cat Financial reported fourth-quarter 2025 revenues of $949 million, an increase of $66 million, or 7%, compared with $883 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a favorable impact from higher average earning assets of $89 million, partially offset by an unfavorable impact from lower average financing rates of $18 million. Fourth-quarter 2025 profit was $139 million, a decrease of $218 million, or 61%, compared with $357 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Fourth-quarter 2025 profit before income taxes was $193 million, an increase of $53 million, or 38%, compared with $140 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase was mainly due to a favorable impact from higher average earning assets of $34 million and lower provision for credit losses of $19 million.

The provision for income taxes was $54 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared with a benefit of $217 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The benefit from income taxes for the fourth quarter of 2024 included a non-cash tax benefit of $224 million from a tax law change related to currency translation.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, retail new business volume was $4.07 billion, an increase of $379 million, or 10%, compared with $3.69 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase was driven by higher volume across all segments.

At the end of 2025, past dues were 1.37%, compared with 1.56% at the end of 2024. Write-offs, net of recoveries, were $101 million for 2025, compared with $115 million for 2024. As of December 31, 2025, the allowance for credit losses totaled $284 million, or 0.86% of finance receivables, compared with $267 million, or 0.91% of finance receivables at December 31, 2024.

**<u>Full-Year 2025 vs. Full-Year 2024</u>**

Cat Financial reported revenues of $3.63 billion for 2025, an increase of $145 million, or 4%, compared with $3.49 billion for 2024. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a favorable impact from higher average earning assets of $222 million, partially offset by an unfavorable impact from lower average financing rates of $68 million. Profit was $540 million for 2025, a decrease of $58 million, or 10%, compared with $598 million for 2024.

Profit before income taxes was $734 million for 2025, an increase of $201 million, or 38%, compared with $533 million for 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the absence of a $210 million loss on divestiture of a non-U.S. entity in 2024 and a favorable impact from higher average earning assets of $90 million, partially offset by the absence of an insurance settlement of $33 million in 2024 and higher provision for credit losses of $31 million.

The provision for income taxes was $193 million for 2025 compared with a benefit of $66 million for 2024. The benefit from income taxes for 2024 included a non-cash tax benefit of $224 million from a tax law change related to currency translation.

During 2025, retail new business volume was $14.26 billion, an increase of $1.02 billion, or 8%, compared with $13.24 billion for 2024. The increase was driven by higher volume across all segments except Mining.

"Cat Financial closed the year with strong retail new business volume and past dues at historical lows," said Dave Walton, President of Cat Financial and Senior Vice President with responsibility for the Financial Products Division of Caterpillar Inc. "The Cat Financial team remains focused on executing our strategy and supporting Caterpillar customers and dealers with financial services solutions, positioning us well for long-term profitable growth."
