**NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

Republic Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (also referred to collectively as Republic, the Company, we, us, or our), is one of the largest providers of environmental services in the United States, as measured by revenue. Our senior management evaluates, oversees and manages the financial performance of our operations through three field groups, referred to as Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3. Group 1 is our recycling and waste business operating primarily in geographic areas located in the western United States. Group 2 is our recycling and waste business operating primarily in geographic areas located in the southeastern and mid-western United States, the eastern seaboard of the United States, and Canada. Group 3 is our environmental solutions business operating in geographic areas located across the United States and Canada. These groups represent our reportable segments, which each provide integrated environmental services, including but not limited to collection, transfer, recycling, and disposal.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Republic Services, Inc. and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). We account for investments in entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest under the equity method of accounting or, for investments that do not meet the criteria to be accounted for under the equity method, we reflect these investments at their fair value when it is readily determinable. If fair value is not readily determinable, we use an alternative measurement approach. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

We have prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information related to our organization, significant accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments that, unless otherwise disclosed, are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results you can expect for a full year. You should read these financial statements in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

For comparative purposes, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation and are not material to our consolidated financial statements. All dollar amounts in tabular presentations are in millions, except per share amounts and unless otherwise noted.

**Management's Estimates and Assumptions**

In preparing our financial statements, we make numerous estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. We must make these estimates and assumptions because certain information we use is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available or simply cannot be readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. In preparing our financial statements, the more critical and subjective areas that deal with the greatest amount of uncertainty relate to our accounting for our long-lived assets, including recoverability, landfill development costs and final capping, closure and post-closure costs; our liabilities for potential litigation, claims and assessments; our liabilities for environmental remediation, deferred taxes, and uncertain tax positions; and our estimates of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in certain acquisitions. For more detail on significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2, *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Our actual results may differ significantly from our estimates.

**New Accounting Pronouncements**

***Accounting Standards Updates Issued but not yet Adopted***

*Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity*

In May 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): *Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity* (ASU 2025-03), revising guidance on identifying the accounting acquirer in business combinations involving variable interest entities (VIEs). In accordance with ASU 2025-03, when a reporting entity exchanges equity interests in a business combination, it must evaluate specific factors to determine the accounting acquirer, irrespective of the legal acquiree's classification as a VIE. This may lead to the conclusion that a VIE involves a reverse acquisition, treating the legal acquirer as the acquiree for accounting purposes. This update improves comparability with combinations including voting interest entities (VOEs) and will be effective for fiscal years starting after December 15, 2026.

*Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): *Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses* (ASU 2024-03). ASU 2024-03 requires an entity to disclose the amount of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. It also requires an entity to include certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under GAAP in the same disclosure. Additionally, it requires an entity to disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, and to disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity's definition of selling expenses. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments prospectively for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its future consolidated financial statements.

*Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): *Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures* (ASU 2023-09). ASU 2023-09 requires entities to provide additional information in the rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently assessing the effect this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.

*Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative*

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: *Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative,* to modify the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of topics, which will allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC's existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC's requirements, and to align the requirements in the FASB accounting standard codification with the SEC's regulations. The effective date for each topic's amendment will be the date on which the SEC's removal of the topic's related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the amendments and the impact on its future consolidated financial statements.

**2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS, INVESTMENTS AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES**

**Acquisitions**

We acquired various environmental services businesses during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The aggregate purchase price paid for these business acquisitions and the allocations of the aggregate purchase price follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | 2025 | 2024 |
| Purchase price: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash used in acquisitions, net of cash acquired of $7 and $1, respectively | $862 | $41 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Holdbacks | 11 |  |
| Total | $873 | $41 |
| Allocated as follows: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accounts receivable | $27 | $2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prepaid expenses | 2 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Property and equipment | 136 | 20 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Operating right-of-use lease assets | 17 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other assets | 2 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accounts payable | (5) |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred revenue | (1) |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Environmental remediation liabilities | (12) |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Operating right-of-use lease liabilities | (17) |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred income tax liabilities | (16) | (1) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other liabilities | (2) |  |
| Fair value of tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed | 131 | 21 |
| Excess purchase price to be allocated | $742 | $20 |
| Excess purchase price allocated as follows: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other intangible assets | $110 | $4 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Goodwill | 632 | 16 |
| Total allocated | $742 | $20 |

---

Certain of the purchase price allocations are preliminary and based on information existing at the acquisition dates. The preliminary allocation of purchase price, including the value of certain tangible and intangible assets acquired as well as environmental liabilities assumed, is based on the best estimates of management and is subject to revision based on the final valuations. For the acquisitions that closed during the six months ended June 30, 2025, we expect that a majority of the goodwill and intangible assets recognized as a result of these acquisitions will not be deductible for tax purposes.

These acquisitions are not material to the Company's results of operations, individually or in the aggregate. As a result, no pro forma financial information is provided.

In February 2025, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of COP Shamrock Parent, Inc. (Shamrock). Shamrock is a leading provider of industrial waste and wastewater treatment services. Shamrock's operations are primarily located in the northeastern and southeastern United States and provide us with a platform to pursue additional growth in our environmental solutions line of business.

**Investments**

We invest in non-controlling equity interests in certain limited liability companies that qualify for investment tax credits under Section 48 of the Internal Revenue Code. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting utilizing the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value method. In exchange for our non-controlling interests, we made capital contributions of $50 million and $91 million, which were recorded to other assets in our unaudited consolidated balance sheets during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the carrying value of these investments was increased by $3 million and decreased by $5 million, respectively, as a result of our share of income and loss pursuant to the terms of the limited liability company agreements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we decreased the carrying value of these investments by $33 million and $42 million, respectively, as a result of our share of income and loss pursuant to the terms of the limited liability company agreements.

benefits, refer to Note 11, *Income Taxes,* in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In 2024, we acquired a non-controlling equity interest in a joint venture with a landfill gas-to-energy developer to construct renewable natural gas projects at certain of our landfill locations in Illinois. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our carrying value in the joint venture was $39 million and $35 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we contributed $4 million and $31 million, respectively, into the joint venture. This investment is an unconsolidated VIE for which we do not have the power to direct the significant activities of the business, and it is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Our risk of loss is materially consistent with our contributions to-date.

In 2022, we acquired a non-controlling equity interest in a joint venture with a landfill gas-to-energy developer to construct renewable natural gas projects at our landfills across the United States. Certain of these investments qualified for investment tax credits under Section 48 of the Internal Revenue Code. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our carrying value in the joint venture was approximately $270 million. The investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

In 2022, we acquired a non-controlling equity interest in Blue Polymers, LLC, a joint venture with Ravago, intended to help create vertical integration in the recycling market, and to further advance circularity by acquiring all olefins produced by the Company's Polymer Centers and produce custom blended pellets for food-grade and non-food-grade packaging. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our carrying value in the joint venture was $72 million and $55 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we contributed $21 million and $14 million, respectively, into the joint venture. This investment is an unconsolidated VIE for which we do not have the power to direct the significant activities of the business, and it is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Our risk of loss is materially consistent with our contributions to-date.

These investments were recorded as other assets in our unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025.

**Restructuring Charges**

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred restructuring charges of $6 million and $9 million, respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred restructuring charges of $6 million and $12 million, respectively. The 2025 charges primarily related to the design and implementation of a new accounts receivable system. The 2024 charges primarily related to the redesign of our asset management, and customer and order management software systems. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we paid $7 million and $10 million, respectively, related to these restructuring efforts.

**3. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET**

**6. LANDFILL AND ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS**

As of June 30, 2025, we owned or operated 208 active landfills with total available disposal capacity estimated to be 5.1 billion in-place cubic yards. Additionally, we had post-closure responsibility for 125 closed landfills.

**Accrued Landfill and Environmental Costs**

A summary of accrued landfill and environmental liabilities as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | 2025 | 2024 |

| Total accrued landfill and environmental costs | 2682 | 2591 |
| Less: current portion | (141) | (159) |
| Long-term portion | $2541 | $2432 |

---

**Final Capping, Closure and Post-Closure Costs**

The following table summarizes the activity in our asset retirement obligation liabilities, which includes liabilities for final capping, closure and post-closure, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | 2025 | 2024 |
| Asset retirement obligation liabilities, beginning of year | $2144 | $1937 |
| Non-cash additions | 39 | 30 |
| Acquisitions, net of divestitures and other adjustments | 1 | 4 |
| Asset retirement obligation adjustments | 4 | 3 |
| Payments | (21) | (22) |
| Accretion expense | 57 | 53 |
| Asset retirement obligation liabilities, end of period | 2224 | 2005 |
| Less: current portion | (79) | (74) |
| Long-term portion | $2145 | $1931 |

---

We review annually, in the fourth quarter, and update as necessary, our estimates of asset retirement obligation liabilities. However, if there are significant changes in the facts and circumstances related to a site during the year, we will update our assumptions prospectively in the period that we know all the relevant facts and circumstances and make adjustments as appropriate.

**Landfill Operating Expenses**

In the normal course of business, we incur various operating costs associated with environmental compliance. These costs include, among other things, leachate treatment and disposal, methane gas and groundwater monitoring, systems maintenance, interim cap maintenance, costs associated with the application of daily cover materials, and the legal and administrative costs of ongoing environmental compliance. These costs are expensed as cost of operations in the periods in which they are incurred.

**Environmental Remediation Liabilities**

We accrue for remediation costs when they become probable and can be reasonably estimated. There can sometimes be a range of reasonable estimates of the costs associated with remediation of a site. In these cases, we use the amount within the range that constitutes our best estimate. If no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other, we use the amount that is at the low end of such range. It is reasonably possible that we will need to adjust the liabilities recorded for remediation to reflect the effects of new or additional information, to the extent such information impacts the costs, timing or duration of the required actions. If we used the reasonably possible high ends of our ranges, our aggregate potential remediation liability as of June 30, 2025 would be approximately $274 million higher than the amount recorded. Future changes in our estimates of the cost, timing or duration of the required actions could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

*Bridgeton Landfill.* During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we paid $5 million related to management and monitoring of the remediation area for our closed Bridgeton Landfill in Missouri. We continue to work with state and federal regulatory agencies on our remediation efforts. From time to time, this may require us to modify our future operating timeline and procedures, which could result in changes to our expected liability. As of June 30, 2025, the remediation liability recorded for this site was $57 million, of which approximately $5 million is expected to be paid during the remainder of 2025.

*West Lake Landfill Superfund Site*. Our subsidiary Bridgeton Landfill, LLC is one of several currently designated Potentially Responsible Parties for the West Lake Landfill Superfund site (West Lake) in Missouri. On September 27, 2018, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a Record of Decision Amendment for West Lake that includes a total undiscounted cost estimate of $229 million over a four to five year design and construction timeline. On March 11, 2019, the EPA issued special notice letters under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) to Bridgeton Landfill, LLC and the other currently designated Potentially Responsible Parties to initiate negotiations to implement the remedy. On January 17, 2025, the EPA issued an Explanation of Significant Differences (ESD) applying the prior Record of Decision Amendment to an increased number of acres at the site found to contain radiologically-impacted material. The ESD includes a revised undiscounted cost estimate of $392 million. At this time we are neither able to predict the final design of that remedy, nor estimate how much of the future response costs of the site our subsidiary may agree or be required to pay. During any subsequent administrative proceedings or litigation, our subsidiary will vigorously contest liability for the costs of remediating radiologically-impacted materials generated on behalf of the federal government during the Manhattan Project and delivered to the site by an Atomic Energy Commission licensee and its subcontractor. However, subsequent events related to remedy design, divisibility, or allocation may require us to modify our expected remediation liability.

**NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)**

**Credit Facilities**

*Uncommitted Credit Facility*

In January 2022, we entered into a $200 million unsecured uncommitted revolving credit facility (the Uncommitted Credit Facility). The Uncommitted Credit Facility bears interest at an annual percentage rate to be agreed upon by both parties. Borrowings under the Uncommitted Credit Facility can be used for working capital, letters of credit, and other general corporate purposes. The agreement governing our Uncommitted Credit Facility requires us to comply with certain covenants. The Uncommitted Credit Facility may be terminated by either party at any time. As of June 30, 2025, we had $32 million of borrowings outstanding under our Uncommitted Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding under our Uncommitted Credit Facility.

*The Credit Facility*

In July 2024, we and our subsidiary, USE Canada Holdings, Inc. (the Canadian Borrower), entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the Credit Facility), which amended and restated the unsecured revolving credit facility we entered into in August 2021. The total outstanding principal amount that we may borrow under the Credit Facility may not exceed the current aggregate lenders' commitments of $3.5 billion, and borrowings under the Credit Facility mature in July 2029. We have the right to request two one-year extensions of the maturity date, but none of the lenders are committed to participate in such extensions. The Credit Facility also includes a feature that allows us to increase availability, at our option, by an aggregate amount of up to $1.0 billion through increased commitments from existing lenders or the addition of new lenders.

All loans to the Canadian Borrower and all loans denominated in Canadian dollars cannot exceed $1.0 billion (the Canadian Sublimit). The Canadian Sublimit is part of, and not in addition to, the aggregate commitments under the Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility in United States dollars bear interest at a Base Rate, a daily floating SOFR or a term SOFR, plus a current applicable margin of 0.805% based on our Debt Ratings (all as defined in the Credit Facility agreement). Canadian dollar-denominated loans bear interest based on the Canadian Prime Rate or the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, plus a current applicable margin of 0.805% based on our Debt Ratings. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, C$213 million and C$232 million, respectively, were outstanding against the Canadian Sublimit.

The Credit Facility is subject to facility fees based on applicable rates defined in the Credit Facility agreement and the aggregate commitment, regardless of usage. The Credit Facility can be used for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, letters of credit and other general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility agreement requires us to comply with financial and other covenants. We may pay dividends and repurchase common stock if we are in compliance with these covenants.

We had $156 million and $514 million of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We had $322 million and $317 million of letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We also had $318 million and $477 million of principal borrowings outstanding (net of related discount on issuance) under the commercial paper program as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As a result, availability under our Credit Facility was $2.7 billion and $2.2 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

*Commercial Paper Program*

In May 2022, we entered into a commercial paper program for the issuance and sale of unsecured commercial paper in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $500 million outstanding at any one time (the Commercial Paper Cap). In August 2022, the Commercial Paper Cap was increased to $1.0 billion, and in October 2023, was increased to $1.5 billion. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2025 is 4.568% with a weighted average maturity of approximately 4 days. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2024 is 4.646% with a weighted average maturity of approximately 18 days.

We had $318 million and $477 million principal value of commercial paper issued and outstanding under the program as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. In the event of a failed re-borrowing, we currently have availability under our Credit Facility to fund amounts currently borrowed under the commercial paper program until they are re-borrowed successfully. Accordingly, we have classified these borrowings as long-term in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

**REPUBLIC SERVICES, INC.**

**NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)**

**Senior Notes and Debentures**

In June 2024, we issued $400 million of 5.000% senior notes due 2029 and $500 million of 5.200% senior notes due 2034. We used the proceeds from the June 2024 notes issuance for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of a portion of amounts outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program and the Credit Facility; and repayment of the remaining amount outstanding under the Uncommitted Credit Facility and certain debt obligations.

In March 2025, we issued $500 million of 4.750% senior notes due 2030 and $700 million of 5.150% senior notes due 2035. We used the proceeds from the March 2025 notes issuance for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of a portion of amounts outstanding on our Credit Facility and a portion of outstanding borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program.

Our senior notes and debentures are general unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equally with our other unsecured obligations.

**Tax-Exempt Financings**

As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $1.4 billion of tax-exempt financings outstanding, with maturities ranging from 2026 to 2054 for both periods.

In June 2024, the Mission Economic Development Corporation issued, for our benefit, $50 million in principal amount of Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds. The proceeds from the issuance, after deferred issuance costs, were used to fund the acquisition, construction, improvement, installation, and/or equipping of certain solid waste disposal facilities located within Texas.

In March 2024, the California Municipal Finance Authority issued, for our benefit, $100 million in principal amount of Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds. The proceeds from the issuance, after deferred issuance costs, were used to fund the acquisition, construction, improvement, installation, and/or equipping of certain solid waste disposal facilities located within California.

We have $250 million of tax-exempt financings that have an initial remarketing period of 10 years. Our remaining tax-exempt financings are remarketed either quarterly or semiannually by remarketing agents to effectively maintain a variable yield. The holders of the bonds can put them back to the remarketing agents at the end of each interest period. If the remarketing agents are unable to remarket our bonds, the remarketing agents can put the bonds to us. In the event of a failed remarketing, we currently have availability under our Credit Facility to fund the repurchase of these bonds until they are remarketed successfully. Accordingly, we classified these borrowings as long-term in our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**Finance Leases and Other**

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had finance leases and other liabilities of $363 million and $315 million, respectively, with maturities ranging from 2025 to 2063 for both periods.

As of June 30, 2025, finance leases and other included $105 million related to the construction of an office building located in Phoenix, Arizona, which has been accounted for as a financing obligation. The amount is recorded within long-term debt, net of current maturities.

**8. INCOME TAXES**

Our effective tax rate, exclusive of non-controlling interests, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was 23.6% and 24.6%, respectively. Our effective tax rate, exclusive of non-controlling interests, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was 21.7% and 22.9%, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, net cash paid for income taxes was $150 million and $109 million, respectively.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act") was signed into law. The Act, among other things, implements changes to the tax treatment relating to bonus depreciation, research and experimental expenditures and interest expense, and includes phase-outs and restrictions on several clean energy tax incentives. We are evaluating the Act, and the total financial impact to the Company is unknown at this time.

We have deferred tax assets related to state net operating loss carryforwards. We provide a partial valuation allowance due to uncertainty surrounding the future utilization of these carryforwards in the taxing jurisdictions where the loss carryforwards exist. When determining the need for a valuation allowance, we consider all positive and negative evidence, including recent financial results, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies. The realization of our deferred tax asset for state loss carryforwards ultimately depends upon the existence of sufficient taxable

**NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)**

income in the appropriate state taxing jurisdictions in future periods. The weight given to the positive and negative evidence is commensurate with the extent such evidence can be objectively verified. We continue to regularly monitor both positive and negative evidence in determining the ongoing need for a valuation allowance. As of June 30, 2025, the valuation allowance associated with our state loss carryforwards was $39 million.

We are subject to income tax in the United States and Canada, as well as multiple state jurisdictions. Income tax in our foreign jurisdictions is not material for all years presented. Our compliance with income tax rules and regulations is periodically audited by taxing authorities. These authorities may challenge the positions taken in our tax filings. Thus, to provide for certain potential tax exposures, we maintain liabilities for uncertain tax positions for our estimate of the final outcome of these examinations. Our federal statute of limitations is closed through 2021, except for an acquired subsidiary for which the statute of limitations is closed through 2020. In addition, we are currently under state examination or administrative review in various jurisdictions for tax years 2013 through 2023.

We believe the recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions are adequate. However, a significant assessment against us in excess of the liabilities recorded could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. As of June 30, 2025, we are unable to estimate the resolution of our gross unrecognized benefits over the next 12 months.

We recognize interest and penalties as incurred within the provision for income taxes in the consolidated statement of income. As of June 30, 2025, we accrued a liability for penalties of $1 million and a liability for interest (including interest on penalties) of $6 million related to our uncertain tax positions.

**9. STOCK REPURCHASES, DIVIDENDS AND EARNINGS PER SHARE**

**Available Shares**

We currently have approximately 10 million shares of common stock reserved for future grants under the Republic Services, Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan.

**Stock Repurchases**

In October 2023, our Board of Directors approved a $3.0 billion share repurchase authorization effective January 1, 2024 and extending through December 31, 2026. Share repurchases under the program may be made through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. While the Board of Directors has approved the program, the timing of any purchases, the prices and the number of shares of common stock to be purchased will be determined by our management, at its discretion, and will depend upon market conditions and other factors. On a quarterly basis, our Board of Directors reviews the parameters around which we repurchase our shares. The share repurchase program may be extended, suspended or discontinued at any time.

Stock repurchase activity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

---

As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, there were no repurchased shares pending settlement. As of June 30, 2025, the remaining authorized purchase capacity under our October 2023 repurchase program was $2.5 billion.

**Dividends**

In April 2025, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.580 per share. Cash dividends declared were $363 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, we recorded a quarterly dividend payable of $182 million to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 2, 2025.

**Earnings per Share**

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Republic Services, Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares (including vested but unissued restricted stock units and performance stock units) outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is based on the combined weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding, which include, where appropriate, the unvested restricted stock units (RSUs) and the unvested performance stock units (PSUs) at the expected attainment levels. We use the treasury stock method in computing diluted earnings per share.

Earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

**11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS**

**Fair Value Measurements**

In measuring fair values of assets and liabilities, we use valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs (Level 1) and minimize the use of unobservable inputs (Level 3). We also use market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk when appropriate.

The carrying value for certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, current investments, accounts payable and certain other accrued liabilities, approximates fair value because of their short-term nature.

***Total Debt***

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying value of our total debt was $13.0 billion and $12.7 billion, respectively, and the fair value of our total debt was $12.7 billion and $12.2 billion, respectively. The estimated fair value of our fixed rate senior notes, debentures and certain tax-exempt financings is based on quoted market prices. The fair value of our remaining notes payable, tax-exempt financings and borrowings under our credit facilities approximates the carrying value because the interest rates are variable. The fair value estimates were based on Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. See Note 7, *Debt*, for further information related to our debt.

**12. SEGMENT REPORTING**

Our senior management evaluates, oversees and manages the financial performance of our operations through three field groups, referred to as Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3. Group 1 is our recycling and waste business operating primarily in geographic areas located in the western United States. Group 2 is our recycling and waste business operating primarily in geographic areas located in the southeastern and mid-western United States, the eastern seaboard of the United States, and Canada. Group 3 is our environmental solutions business operating in geographic areas located across the United States and Canada. These groups are presented below as our reportable segments, which each provide integrated environmental services, including but not limited to collection, transfer, recycling, and disposal.

Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is Jon Vander Ark, President and Chief Executive Officer of Republic Services, Inc. Adjusted EBITDA is the single financial measure our CODM uses to evaluate segment profitability and returns, which informs resource allocation. For all segments, the CODM uses adjusted EBITDA to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on invested capital). The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances and year-over-year growth on a monthly basis to assess the performance of each segment. Cost of operations and selling, general and administrative are significant segment expenses used in the evaluation.

Summarized financial information concerning our reportable segments for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 follows:

(1) The Recycling & Waste Subtotal represents the combined results of our Group 1 and Group 2 reportable segments.

Corporate entities and other includes marketing, operations support, business development, legal, tax, treasury, information technology, risk management, human resources and other administrative functions. National Accounts revenue included in Corporate entities and other represents the portion of revenue generated from nationwide and regional contracts in markets outside our operating areas where the associated material handling is subcontracted to local operators. Revenue and overhead costs of Corporate entities and other are either specifically assigned or allocated on a rational and consistent basis among our reportable segments to calculate Adjusted EBITDA.

As presented in the table below, Adjusted EBITDA reflects certain adjustments for losses from unconsolidated equity method investments, restructuring expenses, and loss (gain) on business divestitures and impairments, net. This presentation is consistent with how our CODM reviews our results of operations to make resource allocation decisions.

Intercompany revenue reflects transactions within and between segments that generally are made on a basis intended to reflect the market value of such services. Capital expenditures for Corporate entities and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 largely included investments in our third polymer center as well as investments in our digital platforms. Capital expenditures for Corporate entities and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily included vehicle inventory acquired but not yet assigned to operating locations and facilities.

A reconciliation of the Company's single measure of segment profitability (segment Adjusted EBITDA) to Income before income tax provision in the Consolidated Statements of Net Income is as follows:

---

Other non-core revenue consists primarily of revenue from National Accounts, which represents the portion of revenue generated from nationwide or regional contracts in markets outside our operating areas where the associated material handling is subcontracted to local operators. Consequently, substantially all of this revenue is offset with related subcontract costs, which are recorded in cost of operations.

Intercompany revenue reflects transactions within and between lines of business that generally are made on a basis intended to reflect the market value of such services.

**REPUBLIC SERVICES, INC.**

**NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)**

See Note 12, *Segment Reporting*, for additional information regarding revenue by reportable segment.

**Revenue Recognition**

Our service obligations of a long-term nature, e.g., certain collection service contracts, are satisfied over time, and we recognize revenue based on the value provided to the customer during the period. The amount billed to the customer is based on variable elements such as the number of residential homes or businesses for which collection services are provided, the volume of material collected, treated, transported and disposed, and the nature of the material accepted. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for these contracts as our right to consideration corresponds directly to the value provided to the customer for services completed to date and all future variable consideration is allocated to wholly unsatisfied performance obligations.

Additionally, certain elements of our long-term customer contracts are unknown upon entering into the contract, including the amount that will be billed in accordance with annual price escalation clauses, our fuel recovery fee program and commodity prices. The amount to be billed is often tied to changes in an underlying base index such as a consumer price index or a fuel or commodity index, and revenue can be recognized once the index is established for the period.

Environmental solutions revenue is primarily generated from the fees we charge for the collection, treatment, consolidation, disposal and recycling of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, field and industrial services, equipment rental, emergency response and standby services and in-plant services, such as transportation and logistics, including at our treatment, storage and disposal facilities (TSDF). Activity for this service line varies across markets and reflects the regulatory environment, pricing and disposal alternatives available in any given market. Revenue recognized is variable in nature and primarily based on the volume and type of waste accepted or processed during the period. For certain field and industrial services contracts, we have a right to consideration from our customers in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company's performance completed to date. Therefore, we have applied the practical expedient to recognize revenue in the amount to which we have the right to invoice.

**Deferred Revenue**

The factors that impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized for each service line may vary based on the nature of the service performed. Generally, we recognize revenue at the time we perform a service. In the event that we bill for services in advance of performance, we recognize deferred revenue for the amount billed and subsequently recognize revenue at the time the service is provided. Depending on the nature of the contract, we may also generate revenue through the collection of fuel recovery fees and environmental fees which are designed to recover our internal costs of providing services to our customers.

Substantially all of the deferred revenue recognized as of December 31, 2024 was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2025 when the service was performed.

**Deferred Contract Costs**

We incur certain upfront payments to acquire customer contracts which are recognized as other assets in our consolidated balance sheet, and we amortize the asset over the respective contract life. In addition, we recognize sales commissions that represent an incremental cost of the contract as other assets in our consolidated balance sheets, and we amortize the asset over the average life of the customer relationship. For the periods ended June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we recognized $81 million and $82 million, respectively, of deferred contract costs and capitalized sales commissions.

**Credit Losses**

Accounts receivable represent receivables from customers for environmental services, including collection and processing of recyclable materials, collection, transfer, and disposal of solid waste, and environmental solutions. Our receivables are recorded when billed or when the related revenue is earned and represent claims against third parties that will be settled in cash. The carrying value of our receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts and customer credits, represents their estimated net realizable value.

We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based on various factors including the age of receivables outstanding, historical trends, economic conditions and other information. We also review outstanding balances on an account-specific basis based on the credit risk of the customer. We determined that all of our accounts receivable share similar risk characteristics. We monitor our credit exposure on an ongoing basis and assess whether assets in the pool continue to display similar risk characteristics. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, but generally do not require collateral to support customer receivables.

**14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

**Legal Proceedings**

We are subject to extensive and evolving laws and regulations and have implemented safeguards to respond to regulatory requirements. In the normal course of our business, we become involved in legal proceedings. Some may result in fines, penalties or judgments against us, or settlements, which may impact earnings and cash flows for a particular period. Although we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of any legal matter with certainty, we do not believe the outcome of any of our pending legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As used herein, the term *legal proceedings* refers to litigation and similar claims against us and our subsidiaries, excluding: (1) ordinary course accidents, general commercial liability and workers' compensation claims, which are covered by insurance programs, subject to customary deductibles, and which, together with insured employee health care costs, are discussed in Note 5, *Other Liabilities;* and (2) environmental remediation liabilities, which are discussed in Note 6, *Landfill and Environmental Costs.*

We accrue for legal proceedings when losses become probable and reasonably estimable. We have recorded an aggregate accrual of approximately $16 million relating to our outstanding legal proceedings as of June 30, 2025. As of the end of each applicable reporting period, we review each of our legal proceedings and, where it is probable that a liability has been incurred, we accrue for all probable and reasonably estimable losses. Where we can reasonably estimate a range of losses we may incur regarding such a matter, we record an accrual for the amount within the range that constitutes our best estimate. If we can reasonably estimate a range but no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other, we use the amount that is the low end of such range. If we had used the high ends of such ranges, our aggregate potential liability would be approximately $7 million higher than the amount recorded as of June 30, 2025.

**Multiemployer Pension Plans**

We participate in multiemployer pension plans that generally provide retirement benefits to participants of contributing employers. We do not administer these plans.

Under current law regarding multiemployer pension plans, our withdrawal (which we consider from time to time) or the mass withdrawal from any under-funded multiemployer pension plan (each, a Withdrawal Event) could require us to make payments to the plan for our proportionate share of the plan's unfunded vested liabilities. During the course of operating our business, we incur Withdrawal Events regarding certain of the multiemployer pension plans in which we participate. We accrue for such events when losses become probable and reasonably estimable.

**ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.**

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, you should refer to our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and related *Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations* appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

**Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking information about us that is intended to be covered by the safe harbor for "forward-looking statements" provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Words such as "guidance," "expect," "will," "may," "anticipate," "plan," "estimate," "project," "intend," "should," "can," "likely," "could," "outlook" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, information appearing in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" includes forward-looking statements. These statements include information about our plans, strategies, and expectations of future financial performance and prospects. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of our management and are subject to risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, such expectations may not prove to be correct. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements are the impacts of the overall global economy and changing interest rates, impacts from international trade restrictions and tariffs, our ability to effectively integrate and manage companies we acquire, and to realize the anticipated benefits of any such acquisitions, the impact of work stoppages or other labor disruptions, the amount of the financial contribution of our sustainability initiatives, acts of war, riots or terrorism, and the impact of these acts on economic, financial and social conditions in the United States, as well as our dependence on large, long-term collection, transfer and disposal contracts. More information on factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated is included from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, particularly under Part 1, Item 1A - Risk Factors. Additionally, new risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, or to assess the impact such risk factors might have on our business. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

**Recent Developments**

***2025 Financial Guidance***

We continue to focus on pricing in excess of cost inflation, driving profitable volume growth, investing in sustainability to improve the environment and drive growth, investing in value-creating acquisitions and advancing technology to improve productivity and increase customer retention. Specific guidance follows:

*Revenue*

We anticipate revenue for the year ending December 31, 2025 to be in the range of $16.675 billion to $16.750 billion.

*Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share*

The following is a summary of anticipated adjusted diluted earnings per share for the year ending December 31, 2025. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is not a measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | (Anticipated) <br>Year Ending December 31, 2025 |
| Diluted earnings per share | $6.72 - 6.74 |
| Restructuring charges | 0.04 |
| Labor disruption | 0.06 - 0.12 |
| Adjusted diluted earnings per share | $6.82 - 6.90 |

---

In July 2025, we began to experience labor disruptions in certain isolated markets. We estimated in the table above the impact we expect to incur in the year ended December 31, 2025, due to these labor disruptions. The impact to our consolidated financial statements will ultimately be determined by the duration of these disruptions.

<u>[Table of](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[C](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[ontents](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)</u>

We believe that presenting adjusted diluted earnings per share provides an understanding of operational activities before the financial impact of certain items. We use this measure, and believe investors will find it helpful, in understanding the ongoing performance of our operations separate from items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period. We have incurred comparable charges, costs and recoveries in prior periods, and similar types of adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. Our definition of adjusted diluted earnings per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

**Overview**

Republic is one of the largest providers of environmental services in the United States, as measured by revenue. As of June 30, 2025, we operated across the United States and Canada through 372 collection operations, 254 transfer stations, 79 recycling centers, 208 active landfills, 2 treatment, recovery and disposal facilities, 23 treatment, storage and disposal facilities (TSDF), 5 salt water disposal wells, 15 deep injection wells and 2 polymer centers. We are engaged in 81 landfill gas-to-energy and other renewable energy projects and had post-closure responsibility for 125 closed landfills as of June 30, 2025.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by 4.2% to $8,244 million compared to $7,910 million for the same period in 2024. This change in revenue is due to increases in average yield of 4.3%, increased revenue from acquisitions, net of divestitures of 1.2%, and an increase in recycling processing and commodity sales of 0.1%. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in volume of 0.5%, a decrease in fuel recovery fees of 0.4%, a decrease in environmental solutions revenue of 0.3%, and a decrease of 0.2% due to the number of workdays during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024.

The following table summarizes our revenue, expenses and operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions of dollars and as a percentage of revenue):

(1) The income tax effect related to our adjustments includes both the current and deferred income tax impact and is individually calculated based on the statutory rates applicable to each adjustment.

(2) The aggregate impact to adjusted diluted earnings per share totals to less than $0.01 for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

(3) The aggregate impact to adjusted diluted earnings per share totals to less than $0.01 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

We believe that presenting adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted tax impact, adjusted net income – Republic, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which are not measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides an understanding of operational activities before the financial impact of certain items. We use these measures, and believe investors will find them helpful, in understanding the ongoing performance of our operations separate from items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period. We have incurred comparable charges, costs and recoveries in prior periods, and similar types of adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. Our definitions of adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted tax impact, adjusted net income – Republic, and adjusted diluted earnings per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Further information on each of these adjustments is included below.

*Gain on extinguishment of debt and other related costs.* During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we did not incur any gains or losses on extinguishment of debt. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized a gain of $8 million attributable to the early settlement of certain cash flow hedges related to certain debt obligations. The gain was recognized as a reduction of interest expense.

*Restructuring charges.* During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred restructuring charges of $6 million and $9 million, respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred restructuring charges of $6 million and $12 million, respectively. The 2025 charges primarily related to the design and implementation of a new accounts receivable system. The 2024 charges primarily related to the redesign of our asset management, and customer and order management software systems. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we paid $7 million and $10 million, respectively, related to these restructuring efforts.

During the remainder of 2025, we expect to incur additional restructuring charges of approximately $6 million, primarily related to the design and implementation of a new accounts receivable system. Substantially all of these restructuring charges will be recorded in Corporate entities and other.

*Loss (gain) on business divestitures and impairments, net.* During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a loss on business divestitures and impairments of $3 million and $1 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded a gain on business divestitures and impairments of $2 million.

**Results of Operations**

***Revenue***

We generate revenue by providing environmental services to our customers, including the collection and processing of recyclable materials, the collection, treatment, consolidation, transfer and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste and other environmental solutions. Our residential, small-container and large-container collection operations in some markets are based on long-term contracts with municipalities. Certain of our municipal contracts have annual price escalation clauses that are tied to changes in an underlying base index such as a consumer price index. We generally provide small-container and large-container collection services to customers under contracts with terms up to three years. Our transfer stations and landfills generate revenue from disposal or tipping fees charged to third parties. Our recycling centers generate revenue from tipping fees charged to third parties and the sale of recycled commodities. Our revenue from environmental solutions is primarily generated by (1) fees we charge for the collection, treatment, transfer and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, (2) field and industrial services, (3) equipment rental, (4) emergency response and standby services, (5) in-plant services, such as transportation and logistics, including at our TSDFs and (6) in-plant services such as high-pressure cleaning, tank cleaning, decontamination, remediation, transportation, spill cleanup and emergency response at refineries, chemical, steel and automotive plants and other governmental, commercial and industrial facilities. Other non-core revenue consists primarily of revenue from National Accounts, which represents the portion of revenue generated from nationwide or regional contracts in markets outside our operating areas where the associated material handling is subcontracted to local operators. Consequently, substantially all of this revenue is offset with related subcontract costs, which are recorded in cost of operations. The following table reflects our revenue by service line for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions of dollars and as a percentage of revenue):

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we experienced the following changes in our revenue as compared to the same periods in 2024:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Average yield increased revenue by 4.1% and 4.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, due to positive pricing changes in all lines of business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** The fuel recovery fee program, which mitigates our exposure to changes in fuel prices, decreased revenue by 0.3% and 0.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, due to a decrease in fuel prices compared to the same period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Volume increased revenue by 0.2% during the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in volume in our landfill line of business. The increase was primarily driven by construction and demolition volume related to Hurricane Helene recovery efforts and special waste volume related to the Los Angeles area wildfire remediation. This increase was partially offset by a decline in volume in all collection lines of business as well as a decline in solid waste volumes in our landfill line of business.

Volume decreased revenue by 0.5% during the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a decline in volume in our collection and transfer lines of business as well as a decrease in solid waste volumes in our landfill line of business. The decline in revenue in our large-container collection line of business was primarily driven by a slowing in construction-related activity as well as adverse weather in January and February. The decline in our residential and small-container collection lines of business is primarily attributable to certain municipal contract losses and broker-related business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Revenue decreased by 0.2% due to the impact of the number of workdays during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, which drove a decrease in volumes in our collection, landfill, and transfer

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Recycling processing and commodity sales increased revenue by 0.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to increased volumes at the Las Vegas Polymer Center, the opening of the Indianapolis Polymer Center and reopening a recycling center on the west coast. There was no change to revenue as a result of recycling processing and commodity sales during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. The average price for recycled commodities at our recycling centers, excluding glass and organics, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was $149 and $152 per ton, respectively, compared to $173 and $163 per ton for the same periods in 2024, respectively.

Changing market demand for recycled commodities causes volatility in commodity prices. At current volumes and mix of materials, we believe a $10 per ton change in the price of recycled commodities would change both annual revenue and operating income by approximately $11 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Environmental solutions decreased revenue by 0.9% and 0.3% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in event-based volumes relative to the same periods in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Acquisitions, net of divestitures, increased revenue by 1.5% and 1.2% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, reflecting the results of our continued growth strategy of acquiring environmental services companies that complement and expand our existing business platform.

***Cost of Operations***

Cost of operations includes labor and related benefits, which consists of salaries and wages, health and welfare benefits, incentive compensation and payroll taxes. It also includes transfer and disposal costs representing tipping fees paid to third party disposal facilities and transfer stations; maintenance and repairs relating to our vehicles, equipment and containers, including related labor and benefit costs; transportation and subcontractor costs, which include costs for independent haulers that transport our waste to disposal facilities and costs for local operators that provide waste handling services associated with our National Accounts in markets outside our standard operating areas; fuel, which includes the direct cost of fuel used by our vehicles, net of fuel tax credits; disposal fees and taxes, consisting of landfill taxes, host community fees and royalties; landfill operating costs, which includes financial assurance, leachate disposal, remediation charges and other landfill maintenance costs; risk management costs, which include insurance premiums and claims; cost of goods sold, which includes material costs paid to suppliers; and other, which includes expenses such as facility operating costs, equipment rent and gains or losses on sale of assets used in our operations.

The following table summarizes the major components of our cost of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions of dollars and as a percentage of revenue):

These cost categories may change from time to time and may not be comparable to similarly titled categories presented by other companies. As such, you should take care when comparing our cost of operations by component to that of other companies and of ours for prior periods.

The most significant items impacting our cost of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are summarized below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Labor and related benefits increased in aggregate dollars due to higher hourly and salaried wages as a result of annual merit increases as well as acquisition-related growth. Partially offsetting these increases for the six months ended June

30, 2025 was the impact of one less workday compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transfer and disposal costs decreased primarily due to a decrease in collection volumes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, approximately 67% of the total solid waste volume we collected was disposed at landfill sites that we owned or operated (internalization).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our fuel costs decreased due to a decrease in the average diesel fuel price per gallon. The national average diesel fuel price per gallon for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was $3.56 and $3.59, respectively, as compared to $3.86 and $3.91, respectively, for the same periods in 2024.

At current consumption levels, we believe a twenty-cent per gallon change in the price of diesel fuel would change our fuel costs by approximately $27 million per year. Offsetting these changes in fuel expense would be changes in our fuel recovery fee charged to our customers. At current participation rates, a twenty-cent per gallon change in the price of diesel fuel would change our fuel recovery fee by approximately $38 million per year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Landfill operating costs increased primarily due to an increase in monitoring and maintenance costs on our gas and leachate extraction systems.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Risk management expenses increased primarily due to higher premium costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Other costs of operations increased due to increased occupancy and facility related expenses.

***Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization of Property and Equipment***

The following table summarizes depreciation, depletion and amortization of property and equipment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions of dollars and as a percentage of revenue):

---

| | | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | Three Months Ended June 30, | Three Months Ended June 30, | Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| | 2025 | 2025 | 2024 | 2024 | 2025 | 2025 | 2024 | 2024 |
| Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment | $265 | 6.3% | $244 | 6.0% | $525 | 6.4% | $489 | 6.2% |
| Landfill depletion and amortization | 150 | 3.5 | 131 | 3.3 | 279 | 3.4 | 251 | 3.2 |
| Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense | $415 | 9.8% | $375 | 9.3% | $804 | 9.8% | $740 | 9.4% |

---

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, largely due to an increased investment in trucks and the supporting infrastructure as well as the addition of assets through acquisitions.

Landfill depletion and amortization expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 due to increased construction and demolition volumes related to the Hurricane Helene recovery efforts and increased special waste volumes attributable to the Los Angeles area wildfire remediation. Landfill depletion and amortization expense also increased due to an increase in our overall average depletion rate. Additionally, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized certain unfavorable amortization adjustments related to our asset retirement obligations.

***Amortization of Other Intangible Assets***

Amortization of other intangible assets primarily relates to customer relationships. Expenses for amortization of other intangible assets were $22 million and $43 million, or 0.5% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $19 million and $36 million, or 0.5% and 0.4% of revenue, for the same periods in 2024, respectively. Amortization expense increased due to assets added through acquisition activity.

***Amortization of Other Assets***

Our other assets primarily relate to the prepayment of fees and capitalized implementation costs associated with cloud-based hosting arrangements. Expenses for amortization of other assets were $26 million and $50 million, or 0.6% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $19 million and $36 million, or 0.5% and 0.4% of revenue for the same periods in 2024, respectively.

***Accretion Expense***

Accretion expense was $28 million and $57 million, or 0.7% of revenue, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $27 million and $53 million, or 0.7% of revenue for the same periods in 2024, respectively.

***Selling, General and Administrative Expenses***

Selling, general and administrative expenses include salaries, health and welfare benefits, and incentive compensation for corporate and field general management, field support functions, sales force, accounting and finance, legal, management information systems, and clerical and administrative departments. Other expenses include rent and office costs, fees for professional services provided by third parties, legal settlements, marketing, investor and community relations services, directors' and officers' insurance, general employee relocation, travel, entertainment and bank charges. Restructuring charges are excluded from selling, general and administrative expenses and are discussed separately.

The following table summarizes our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions of dollars and as a percentage of revenue):

---

These cost categories may change from time to time and may not be comparable to similarly titled categories presented by other companies. As such, you should take care when comparing our selling, general and administrative expenses by cost component to those of other companies and of ours for prior periods.

The most significant items affecting our selling, general and administrative expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are summarized below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Salaries and related benefits increased in aggregate dollars primarily due to higher wages and benefits resulting from annual merit increases as well as acquisition-related growth.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** Provision for doubtful accounts decreased primarily due to the management of aged accounts receivable balances. As of June 30, 2025, our days sales outstanding were 40.4, or 29.9 days net of deferred revenue, compared to 40.9, or 30.2 days net of deferred revenue, as of June 30, 2024.

***Loss (Gain) on Business Divestitures and Impairments, Net***

We strive to have a number one or number two market position in each of the markets we serve, or have a clear path on how we will achieve a leading market position over time. Where we cannot establish a leading market position, or where operations are not generating acceptable returns, we may decide to divest of certain assets and reallocate resources to other markets. Business divestitures could result in gains, losses or impairment charges that may be material to our results of operations in a given period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a net loss on business divestitures and impairments of $3 million and $1 million, respectively, as compared to a $2 million gain for each of the same periods in 2024.

***Restructuring Charges***

For a discussion of Restructuring Charges incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, see *Overview* of this *Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.*

***Interest Expense***

The following table provides the components of interest expense, including accretion of debt discounts and accretion of discounts primarily associated with environmental and risk insurance liabilities assumed in acquisitions, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions of dollars):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| | 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 |
| Interest expense on debt | $128 | $117 | $252 | $236 |
| Non-cash interest | 19 | 13 | 37 | 35 |
| Less: capitalized interest | (2) | (2) | (4) | (3) |
| Total interest expense | $145 | $128 | $285 | $268 |

---

Total interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 increased primarily due to higher interest rates on our fixed rate debt.

------

<u>[Table](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[of](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[Contents](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)</u>

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, cash paid for interest, excluding net swap settlements for our floating-to-fixed interest rate swap, was $243 million and $238 million, respectively.

As of June 30, 2025, we had $1,674 million of principal floating rate debt. If interest rates increased or decreased by 100 basis points on our floating rate debt, annualized interest expense and net cash payments for interest would increase or decrease by approximately $17 million.

***Income Taxes***

Our effective tax rate, exclusive of non-controlling interests, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was 23.6% and 24.6%, respectively. Our effective tax rate, exclusive of non-controlling interests, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was 21.7% and 22.9%, respectively.

Net cash paid for income taxes was $150 million and $109 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act") was signed into law. The Act, among other things, implements changes to the tax treatment relating to bonus depreciation, research and experimental expenditures and interest expense, and includes phase-outs and restrictions on several clean energy tax incentives. We are evaluating the Act, and the total financial impact to the Company is unknown at this time. We currently expect to recognize approximately $80 million of cash tax benefit during the year ended December 31, 2025 as a result of changes to bonus depreciation.

For additional discussion and detail regarding our income taxes, see Note 8, *Income Taxes*, to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

***Reportable Segments***

Our senior management evaluates, oversees and manages the financial performance of our operations through three field groups, referred to as Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3. Group 1 is our recycling and waste business operating primarily in geographic areas located in the western United States. Group 2 is our recycling and waste business operating primarily in geographic areas located in the southeastern and mid-western United States, the eastern seaboard of the United States, and Canada. Group 3 is our environmental solutions business operating in geographic areas located across the United States and Canada. These groups are presented below as our reportable segments, which each provide integrated environmental services, including but not limited to collection, transfer, recycling and disposal.

Corporate entities and other includes marketing, operations support, business development, legal, tax, treasury, information technology, risk management, human resources and other administrative functions. National Accounts revenue included in Corporate entities and other represents the portion of revenue generated from nationwide and regional contracts in markets outside our operating areas where the associated material handling is subcontracted to local operators. Consequently, substantially all of this revenue is offset with related subcontract costs, which are recorded in cost of operations. Revenue and overhead costs of Corporate entities and other are either specifically assigned or allocated on a rational and consistent basis among our reportable segments to calculate Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA is the single financial measure our chief operating decision maker (CODM) uses to evaluate operating segment profitability and determine resource allocations. Cost of operations and selling, general and administrative are significant segment expenses used in the evaluation. Summarized financial information regarding our reportable segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions of dollars) follows. For totals as well as further detail regarding our reportable segments and the adjustments used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA for each segment, see Note 12, *Segment Reporting*, of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(1) The Recycling & Waste Subtotal represents the combined results of our Group 1 and Group 2 reportable segments.

Significant changes in the revenue and Adjusted EBITDA of our reportable segments comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are discussed below.

***Group 1***

Adjusted EBITDA in Group 1 increased from $571 million and $1,115 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, to $622 million and $1,221 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

The most significant items impacting adjusted EBITDA in Group 1 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased 6.8% due to an increase in average yield in all lines of business and higher special waste volumes in our landfill line of business. The increase in special waste volumes was primarily driven by the Los Angeles area wildfire remediation. The increases were partially offset by decreased volume in our large-container and residential collection and transfer lines of business. The decrease in volume was also negatively impacted by lower solid waste volumes in our landfill line of business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased 6.1% due to an increase in average yield in all lines of business and an increase in volumes in our landfill line of business. The increase in volumes in our landfill line of business was driven by higher special waste volumes attributable to the Los Angeles area wildfire remediation, partially offset by a decline in solid waste volumes. The increases were partially offset by decreased volume in our collection and transfer lines of business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cost of operations increased primarily due to an increase in labor costs and equipment maintenance.

***Group 2***

Adjusted EBITDA in Group 2 increased from $575 million and $1,109 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, to $630 million and $1,209 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

The most significant items impacting adjusted EBITDA in Group 2 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 increased 4.3% and 3.0%, respectively, due to an increase in average yield in all lines of business and increased volumes in our landfill and transfer lines of business. The increase in volume in our landfill line of business was primarily due to increased construction and demolition volume related to the Hurricane Helene recovery efforts as well as increased special waste and solid waste volumes. These increases were partially offset by decreased volumes in our residential, large-container and small-container lines of business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cost of operations increased primarily due to an increase in labor costs. The unfavorable impact was partially offset by a decrease in fuel costs due to a decrease in average fuel price per gallon.

***Group 3***

Adjusted EBITDA in Group 3 decreased from $112 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $109 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA in Group 3 increased from $198 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $199 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The most significant items impacting adjusted EBITDA in Group 3 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased due to a decrease in event-based volumes, partially offset by acquisition related growth and price increases relative to the same respective periods in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cost of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased primarily due to a decrease in subcontract costs relative to the same period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cost of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased primarily due to an increase in labor cost and the impact of acquisitions.

**Landfill and Environmental Matters**

***Available Airspace***

As of June 30, 2025, we owned or operated 208 active landfills with total available disposal capacity estimated to be 5.1 billion in-place cubic yards. For these landfills, the following table reflects changes in capacity and remaining capacity, as measured in cubic yards of airspace:

---

| | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Balance as of December 31, 2024 | New Expansions Undertaken | Landfills Acquired, Net of Divestitures | Permits Granted / <br>New Sites, <br>Net of Closures | Airspace<br>Consumed | Changes in Engineering Estimates | Balance as of June 30, 2025 |
| Cubic yards (in millions): |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Permitted airspace | 4745 |  | 69 | 126 | (43) | (2) | 4895 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Probable expansion airspace | 282 | 15 |  | (123) |  |  | 174 |
| Total cubic yards (in millions) | 5027 | 15 | 69 | 3 | (43) | (2) | 5069 |
| Number of sites: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Permitted airspace | 208 |  | 1 | (1) |  |  | 208 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Probable expansion airspace | 14 | 1 |  | (2) |  |  | 13 |

---

Total available disposal capacity represents the sum of estimated permitted airspace plus an estimate of probable expansion airspace. Engineers develop these estimates at least annually using information provided by annual aerial surveys. Before airspace included in an expansion area is determined to be probable expansion airspace and, therefore, included in our calculation of total available disposal capacity, it must meet all of our expansion criteria.

As of June 30, 2025, 13 of our landfills met all of our criteria for including their probable expansion airspace in their total available disposal capacity. At projected annual volumes, these 13 landfills have an estimated remaining average site life of 30 years, including probable expansion airspace. The average estimated remaining life of all of our landfills is 56 years. We have other expansion opportunities that are not included in our total available airspace because they do not meet all of our criteria for treatment as probable expansion airspace.

***Remediation and Other Charges for Landfill Matters***

It is reasonably possible that we will need to adjust our accrued landfill and environmental liabilities to reflect the effects of new or additional information, to the extent that such information impacts the costs, timing or duration of the required actions. Future changes in our estimates of the costs, timing or duration of the required actions could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

***Material Cash Requirements and Intended Uses of Cash***

We expect existing cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities, cash flows from operations and financing activities to continue to be sufficient to fund our operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. Our known current- and long-term uses of cash include, among other possible demands: (1) capital expenditures and leases; (2) acquisitions; (3) dividend payments; (4) payments to service debt and other long-term obligations; (5) payments for asset retirement obligations and environmental liabilities; and (6) share repurchases.

We may choose to voluntarily retire certain portions of our outstanding debt before their maturity dates using cash from operations or additional borrowings. We may also explore opportunities in the capital markets to fund redemptions should market conditions be favorable. Early extinguishment of debt will result in an impairment charge in the period in which the debt is repaid. The loss on early extinguishment of debt relates to premiums paid to effectuate the repurchase and the relative portion of unamortized note discounts and debt issue costs.

*Acquisitions*

Our acquisition growth strategy focuses primarily on acquiring privately held recycling and waste companies and environmental solutions businesses that complement our existing business platform. We continue to invest in value-enhancing acquisitions in existing markets.

We expect to invest at least $1 billion in acquisitions in 2025.

***Summary of Cash Flow Activity***

The major components of changes in cash flows are discussed in the following paragraphs. The following table summarizes our cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Six Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, |

***Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities***

We use cash flows from operations to fund our operating activities, capital expenditures and leases, acquisitions, dividend payments, share repurchases, interest payments and repayments of debt and other long-term obligations, and payments for asset retirement obligations and environmental liabilities.

The most significant items affecting the comparison of our cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are summarized below.

Changes in assets and liabilities, net of effects from business acquisitions and divestitures, increased our cash flow from operations by $55 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a decrease of $110 million during the same period in 2024, primarily as a result of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Our accounts receivable, exclusive of the change in allowance for doubtful accounts and customer credits, increased $51 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to the timing of billings net of collections, compared to a $69 million increase in the same period in 2024. As of June 30, 2025, our days sales outstanding were 40.4, or 29.9 days net of deferred revenue, compared to 40.9, or 30.2 days net of deferred revenue, as of June 30, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Our prepaid expenses and other assets decreased $21 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a $36 million decrease in the same period in 2024. The decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets during the six months ended June 30, 2025 is primarily driven by a decrease of tax receivables due to the timing of our estimated tax payments, partially offset by an increase in costs associated with cloud-based hosting arrangements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Our accounts payable decreased $13 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a $19 million increase in the same period in 2024, due to the timing of payments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Cash paid for capping, closure and post-closure obligations was $21 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $22 million in the same period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Cash paid for remediation obligations was $8 million lower during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our other liabilities increased $138 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a $47 million decrease in the same period in 2024, primarily due to the timing of payments for accrued payroll and income taxes payable, partially offset by an increase in cash paid for certain incentive compensation accruals.

In addition, cash paid for interest, excluding net swap settlements for our floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps, was $243 million and $238 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Cash paid for incomes taxes was $150 million and $109 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities***

The most significant items affecting the comparison of our cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are summarized below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $866 million, compared with $918 million for the same period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we paid $963 million and $201 million, respectively, for acquisitions and investments.

We intend to finance future capital expenditures and acquisitions through cash on hand, restricted cash held for capital expenditures, cash flows from operations, our revolving credit facilities, and tax-exempt bonds and other financings.

***Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities***

The most significant items affecting the comparison of our cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are summarized below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we issued $1,200 million of senior notes for cash proceeds, net of discounts and fees, of $1,183 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we issued $900 million of senior notes for cash proceeds, net of discounts and fees, of $889 million. Net payments from notes payable and long-term debt were $1,005 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net payments of $790 million during the same period in 2024. For a more detailed discussion, see the *Financial Condition* section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 0.3 million shares of our common stock for $55 million, compared to repurchases of 0.9 million shares for $168 million during the same period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Dividends paid were $362 million and $337 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

**Financial Condition**

***Debt Obligations***

As of June 30, 2025, we had $421 million of principal debt maturing within the next 12 months, which includes certain finance lease obligations. All of our tax-exempt financings are remarketed either quarterly or semiannually by remarketing agents to effectively maintain a variable yield, with the exception of three tax-exempt financings each with initial remarketing periods of 10 years. The holders of the bonds can put them back to the remarketing agents at the end of each interest period. If the remarketing agents are unable to remarket our bonds, the remarketing agents can put the bonds to us. In the event of a failed remarketing, as of June 30, 2025, we had availability under our Credit Facility to fund the repurchase of these bonds until they are remarketed successfully. In the event of a failed re-borrowing under our commercial paper program, as of June 30, 2025, we had availability under our Credit Facility to fund the commercial paper program until it is re-borrowed successfully. Accordingly, we have classified these tax-exempt financings and commercial paper program borrowings as long-term in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025.

For further discussion of the components of our overall debt, see Note 7, *Debt,* of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

***Credit Facilities***

*Uncommitted Credit Facility*

In January 2022, we entered into a $200 million unsecured uncommitted revolving credit facility (the Uncommitted Credit Facility). The Uncommitted Credit Facility bears interest at an annual percentage rate to be agreed upon by both parties. Borrowings under the Uncommitted Credit Facility can be used for working capital, letters of credit, and other general corporate purposes. The agreement governing our Uncommitted Credit Facility requires us to comply with certain covenants. The Uncommitted Credit Facility may be terminated by either party at any time. As of June 30, 2025, we had $32 million of borrowings outstanding under our Uncommitted Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding under our Uncommitted Credit Facility.

*The Credit Facility*

In July 2024, we and our subsidiary, USE Canada Holdings, Inc. (the Canadian Borrower) entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the Credit Facility) which amended and restated the unsecured revolving credit facility we entered into in August 2021. The total outstanding principal amount that we may borrow under the Credit Facility may not exceed the current aggregate lenders' commitments of $3.5 billion, and borrowings under the Credit Facility mature in July 2029. We have the right to request two one-year extensions of the maturity date, but none of the lenders are committed to participate in such extensions. The Credit Facility also includes a feature that allows us to increase availability, at our option, by an aggregate amount of up to $1 billion through increased commitments from existing lenders or the addition of new lenders.

All loans to the Canadian Borrower and all loans denominated in Canadian dollars cannot exceed $1 billion (the Canadian Sublimit). The Canadian Sublimit is part of, and not in addition to, the aggregate commitments under the Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility in United States dollars bear interest at a Base Rate, a daily floating SOFR or a term SOFR, plus a current applicable margin of 0.805% based on our Debt Ratings (all as defined in the Credit Facility agreement). Canadian dollar-denominated loans bear interest based on the Canadian Prime Rate or the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, plus a current applicable margin of 0.805% based on our Debt Ratings. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, C$213 million and C$232 million, respectively, were outstanding against the Canadian Sublimit.

The Credit Facility is subject to facility fees based on applicable rates defined in the Credit Facility agreement and the aggregate commitment, regardless of usage. The Credit Facility can be used for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, letters of credit and other general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility agreement requires us to comply with financial and other covenants. We may pay dividends and repurchase common stock if we are in compliance with these covenants.

We had $156 million and $514 million of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We had $322 million and $317 million of letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Facility as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We also had $318 million and $477 million of principal borrowings outstanding (net of related discount on issuance) under our commercial paper program as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As a result, availability under our Credit Facility was $2.7 billion and $2.2 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

*Financial and Other Covenants*

The Credit Facility requires us to comply with financial and other covenants. To the extent we are not in compliance with these covenants, we cannot pay dividends or repurchase common stock. Compliance with covenants also is a condition for any incremental borrowings under the Credit Facility, and failure to meet these covenants would enable the lenders to require repayment of any outstanding loans (which would adversely affect our liquidity). Additionally, if we are not in compliance with these covenants, we could not use the availability under our Credit Facility to fund borrowings we currently make under our commercial paper program, if there is a failed reborrowing under that program. The Credit Facility provides that our total debt to EBITDA ratio may not exceed 3.75 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. In the case of an "elevated ratio period", which may be elected by us if one or more acquisitions during a fiscal quarter involve aggregate consideration in excess of $200.0 million (the Trigger Quarter), the total debt to EBITDA ratio may not exceed 4.25 to 1.00 during the Trigger Quarter and for the three fiscal quarters thereafter. The Credit Facility also provides that there may not be more than two elevated ratio periods during the term of the Credit Facility agreement. As of June 30, 2025, our total debt to EBITDA ratio was approximately 2.5 compared to the 3.75 maximum allowed. As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all other covenants under our Credit Facility.

EBITDA, which is a non-U.S. GAAP measure, is calculated as defined in our Credit Facility agreement. In this context, EBITDA is used solely to provide information regarding the extent to which we are in compliance with debt covenants and is not comparable to EBITDA used by other companies or used by us for other purposes.

Failure to comply with the financial and other covenants under the Credit Facility, as well as the occurrence of certain material adverse events, would constitute defaults and would allow the lenders under the Credit Facility to accelerate the maturity of all

------

<u>[Table](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[of](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[Contents](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)</u>

indebtedness under the Credit Facility. This could have an adverse effect on the availability of financial assurances. In addition, maturity acceleration on the Credit Facility constitutes an event of default under certain of our other debt and derivative instruments. If such acceleration were to occur, we would not have sufficient liquidity available to repay the indebtedness. We would likely have to seek an amendment under the Credit Facility for relief from the financial covenant or repay the debt with proceeds from the issuance of new debt or equity, or asset sales, if necessary. We may be unable to amend the Credit Facility or raise sufficient capital to repay such obligations in the event the maturity is accelerated.

*Commercial Paper Program*

In May 2022, we entered into a commercial paper program for the issuance and sale of unsecured commercial paper in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $500 million outstanding at any one time (the Commercial Paper Cap). In August 2022, the Commercial Paper Cap was increased to $1.0 billion, and in October 2023, was increased to $1.5 billion. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2025 is 4.568% with a weighted average maturity of approximately 4 days. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2024 is 4.646% with a weighted average maturity of approximately 18 days.

We had $318 million and $477 million principal value of commercial paper issued and outstanding under the program as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. In the event of a failed re-borrowing, we currently have availability under our Credit Facility to fund amounts currently borrowed under the commercial paper program until they are re-borrowed successfully. Accordingly, we have classified these borrowings as long-term in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

***Senior Notes and Debentures***

In June 2024, we issued $400 million of 5.000% senior notes due 2029 and $500 million of 5.200% senior notes due 2034. We used the proceeds from the June 2024 notes issuance for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of a portion of amounts outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program and the Credit Facility; and repayment of the remaining amount outstanding under the Uncommitted Credit Facility and certain debt obligations.

In March 2025, we issued $500 million of 4.750% senior notes due 2030 and $700 million of 5.150% senior notes due 2035. We used the proceeds from the March 2025 notes issuance for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of a portion of amounts outstanding on our Credit Facility and a portion of outstanding borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program.

Our senior notes and debentures are general unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equally with our other unsecured obligations.

***Tax-Exempt Financings***

As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $1.4 billion of tax-exempt financings outstanding, with maturities ranging from 2026 to 2054 for both periods.

***Finance Leases and Other***

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had finance leases and other liabilities of $363 million and $315 million, respectively, with maturities ranging from 2025 to 2063 for both periods.

As of June 30, 2025, finance leases and other included $105 million related to the construction of an office building located in Phoenix, Arizona, which has been accounted for as a financing obligation. The amount is recorded within long-term debt, net of current maturities.

***Credit Ratings***

Our continued access to the debt capital markets and to new financing facilities, as well as our borrowing costs, depend on multiple factors, including market conditions, our operating performance and maintaining strong credit ratings. As of June 30, 2025, our credit ratings were A-, A3 and A- by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, Moody's Investors Service and Fitch Ratings, Inc, respectively. If our credit ratings were downgraded, especially any downgrade to below investment grade, our ability to access the debt markets with the same flexibility that we have experienced historically, our cost of funds and other terms for new debt issuances, could be adversely impacted.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

We have no off-balance sheet debt or similar obligations, other than short-term operating leases and financial assurances, which are not classified as debt. We have no transactions or obligations with related parties that are not disclosed, consolidated into or reflected in our reported financial position or results of operations. We have not guaranteed any third-party debt.

**Seasonality and Severe Weather**

Our operations can be adversely affected by periods of inclement or severe weather, which could increase the volume of waste collected under our existing contracts (without corresponding compensation), delay the collection and disposal of waste, reduce the volume of waste delivered to our disposal sites, or delay the construction or expansion of our landfills and other facilities. Our operations also can be favorably affected by severe weather, which could increase the volume of waste in situations where we are able to charge for our additional services.

**Contingencies**

For a description of our commitments and contingencies, see Note 6, *Landfill and Environmental Costs*, Note 8, *Income Taxes,* and Note 14, *Commitments and Contingencies*, to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

**Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates**

We identified and discussed our critical accounting judgments and estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Although we believe our estimates and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information available at the time the judgment or estimate is made. Actual results may differ significantly from estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

**New Accounting Pronouncements**

For a description of new accounting standards that may affect us, see Note 1, *Basis of Presentation*, to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.**

**Fuel Price Risk**

Fuel costs represent a significant operating expense. When economically practical, we may enter into new fuel hedges, renew contracts, or engage in other strategies to mitigate market risk. As of June 30, 2025, we had no fuel hedges in place. While we charge fuel recovery fees to a majority of our customers, we are unable to charge such fees to all customers.

At current consumption levels, we believe a twenty-cent per gallon change in the price of diesel fuel would change our fuel costs by approximately $27 million per year. Offsetting these changes in fuel expense would result in changes in our fuel recovery fee charged to our customers. At current participation rates, we believe a twenty-cent per gallon change in the price of diesel fuel would change our fuel recovery fee by approximately $38 million per year.

Our operations also require the use of certain petrochemical-based products (such as liners at our landfills) the cost of which may vary with the price of petrochemicals. An increase in the price of petrochemicals could increase the cost of those products, which would increase our operating and capital costs. We also are susceptible to increases in fuel recovery fees from our vendors.

Our fuel costs were $230 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, or 3% of revenue, compared to $247 million, or 3% of revenue, during the comparable period in 2024.

**Commodities Price Risk**

We market recovered materials such as old corrugated containers and old newsprint from our recycling centers. Changes in market supply and demand for recycled commodities causes volatility in commodity prices. In prior periods, we have entered into derivative instruments such as swaps and costless collars designated as cash flow hedges to manage our exposure to changes in prices of these commodities. As of June 30, 2025, we had no recycling commodity hedges in place.

At current volumes and mix of materials, we believe a $10 change in the price of recycled commodities would change both annual revenue and operating income by approximately $11 million.

Revenue from recycling processing and commodity sales during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $222 million and $203 million, respectively.

**Interest Rate Risk**

We are subject to interest rate risk on our variable rate long-term debt. Additionally, we enter into various interest rate swap agreements with the goal of reducing overall borrowing costs, as well as interest rate locks to manage exposure to fluctuations in anticipation of future debt issuances. Our interest rate swap and lock contracts have been authorized pursuant to our policies and procedures. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes and are not a party to any leveraged derivatives.

<u>[Table](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[of](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)[Contents](#i28957aab97704a0aa3a94c915b34256a_7)</u>

As of June 30, 2025, we had $1,674 million of principal floating rate debt. If interest rates increased or decreased by 100 basis points on our floating rate debt, annualized interest expense and net cash payments for interest would increase or decrease by approximately $17 million. This analysis does not reflect the effect that interest rates would have on other items, such as new borrowings and the impact on the economy. See Note 7, *Debt,* of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding how we manage interest rate risk.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.**

**Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e), and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

Based on an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Form 10-Q identified in connection with that evaluation, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In February 2025, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of COP Shamrock Parent, Inc. (Shamrock). As permitted by the SEC Staff interpretive guidance for newly acquired businesses, management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025 did not include an assessment of internal control over financial reporting as it relates to this acquisition. We will continue the process of implementing internal controls over financial reporting for this acquired business. This business contributed less than 1% of revenue to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

**PART II - OTHER INFORMATION**

**ITEM 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.** 

**General Legal Proceedings** 

We are subject to extensive and evolving laws and regulations and have implemented safeguards to respond to regulatory requirements. In the normal course of our business, we become involved in legal proceedings. Some may result in fines, penalties or judgments against us, or settlements, which may impact earnings and cash flows for a particular period. Although we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of any legal matter with certainty, we do not believe the outcome of any of our pending legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As used in the immediately following paragraph, the term *legal proceedings* refers to litigation and similar claims against us and our subsidiaries, excluding: (1) ordinary course accidents, general commercial liability and workers' compensation claims, which are covered by insurance programs, subject to customary deductibles, and which, together with self-insured employee health care costs, are discussed in Note 5, *Other Liabilities,* to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q; and (2) environmental remediation liabilities, which totaled $458 million at June 30, 2025 and which are discussed in Note 6, *Landfill and Environmental Costs,* to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We accrue for legal proceedings when losses become probable and reasonably estimable. We recorded an aggregate accrual of approximately $16 million relating to our outstanding legal proceedings as of June 30, 2025. As of the end of each applicable reporting period, we review each of our legal proceedings and, where it is probable that a liability has been incurred, we accrue for all probable and reasonably estimable losses. Where we are able to reasonably estimate a range of losses we may incur with respect to such a matter, we record an accrual for the amount within the range that constitutes our best estimate. If we are able to reasonably estimate a range but no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other, we use the amount that is the low end of such range. If we had used the high ends of such ranges, our aggregate potential liability would be approximately $7 million higher than the amount recorded as of June 30, 2025.

**Legal Proceedings over Certain Environmental Matters Involving Governmental Authorities with Possible Sanctions of $1,000,000 or More**

Item 103 of the SEC's Regulation S-K requires disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and the proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions unless we reasonably believe the monetary sanctions will not equal or exceed a threshold which we determine is reasonably designed to result in disclosure of any such proceeding that is material to our business or financial condition. We have determined such disclosure threshold to be $1,000,000. We have no matters to disclose in accordance with that requirement.

**ITEM 1A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;RISK FACTORS.**

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

## Exhibit 10.1

**EXHIBIT 10.1**

**AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT**

This **AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT** dated as of April 2, 2025 (this "<u>Amendment</u>") is made among **REPUBLIC SERVICES, INC.**, a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), **USE CANADA HOLDINGS, INC.**, a Canadian corporation (the "<u>Canadian Borrower</u>" and, together with the Company, the "<u>Borrowers</u>" and each a "<u>Borrower</u>"), **BANK OF AMERICA, N.A.**, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the "<u>Administrative Agent</u>"), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as the Sustainability Structuring Agent, and the Lenders party hereto. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement described below.

**RECITALS:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**The Company, the Administrative Agent, the Sustainability Structuring Agent and the Lenders have entered into that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 26, 2024 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment, the "<u>Existing Credit Agreement</u>"; the Existing Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment, the "<u>Credit Agreement</u>"), pursuant to which the Lenders have made available to the Company a revolving credit facility with a swing line sublimit and a letter of credit sublimit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company has advised the Administrative Agent, the Sustainability Structuring Agent and the Lenders that it desires to amend certain provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement, and the Administrative Agent, the Sustainability Structuring Agent and the Lenders are willing to effect such amendments on the terms and conditions contained in this Amendment.

In consideration of the premises and further valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.<u>Amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement</u>. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, the parties hereto hereby agree that as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (defined below) <u>Schedule 2.18</u> (Sustainability Table) shall be amended and restated as set forth on <u>Annex A</u> hereto.

The amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement are limited to the extent specifically described herein (including as set forth in the annexes hereto) and no other terms, covenants or provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document are intended to be affected hereby

The parties hereto agree that this Amendment shall become effective on the date when the following conditions shall have been satisfied (such date, the "<u>Amendment No. 1 Effective Date</u>"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Administrative Agent's receipt of this Amendment, duly executed by each of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Sustainability Structuring Agent and the Required Lenders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;unless waived by the Administrative Agent, the payment of all fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent to the extent invoiced prior to the date hereof) in connection with this Amendment.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this <u>Section 2</u>, each Lender that has signed this Amendment shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied

------

with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date specifying its objection thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.<u>Representations and Warranties</u>. In order to induce the Administrative Agent, the Sustainability Structuring Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Amendment, each Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The representations and warranties of each Borrower contained in <u>Article V</u> of the Credit Agreement and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except, if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (except, if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date and except that the representations and warranties in <u>Section 5.11(a)</u> shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to <u>Section 6.01</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Since the date of the Audited Financial Statements, there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)This Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of, each Borrower, except as may be limited by general principles of equity or by the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors' rights generally.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof or would result after giving effect to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.<u>Entire Agreement</u>. This Amendment, together with the Loan Documents (collectively, the "<u>Relevant Documents</u>"), sets forth the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto in relation to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior negotiations and agreements among the parties relating to such subject matter. No promise, condition, representation or warranty, express or implied, not set forth in the Relevant Documents shall bind any party hereto, and no such party has relied on any such promise, condition, representation or warranty. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly stated in the Relevant Documents, no representations, warranties or commitments, express or implied, have been made by any party to the other in relation to the subject matter hereof or thereof. None of the terms or conditions of this Amendment may be changed, modified, waived or canceled orally or otherwise, except in writing and in accordance with <u>Section 10.01</u> of the Credit Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.<u>Full Force and Effect of Amendment</u>. Except as hereby specifically amended, modified or supplemented, the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents are hereby confirmed and ratified in all respects and shall be and remain in full force and effect according to their respective terms. The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of, or operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower (a) acknowledges and consents to all of the terms and conditions of this Amendment, (b) affirms all of its obligations under the Loan Documents as amended hereby and (c) agrees that this Amendment, and all documents executed in connection herewith, do not operate to reduce or discharge any Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.<u>Counterparts</u>. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original as against any party whose signature appears thereon, and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy, facsimile or other electronic transmission (including .PDF) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.<u>Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Etc</u>. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, and shall be further subject to the provisions of <u>Sections 10.14</u> and <u>10.15</u> of the Credit Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.<u>Enforceability</u>. Should any one or more of the provisions of this Amendment be determined to be illegal or unenforceable as to one or more of the parties hereto, all other provisions nevertheless shall remain effective and binding on the parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.<u>References</u>. This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document and all references in any of the other Loan Documents to the "Credit Agreement" shall mean the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.<u>Successors and Assigns</u>. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Sustainability Structuring Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assignees to the extent such assignees are permitted assignees as provided in <u>Section 10.06</u> of the Credit Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.<u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Amendment is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
