Second Quarter 2026 Overview

In the second quarter of 2026, overall market trends remained stable compared to the prior year, with demand broadly consistent with recent quarters. The Supreme Court ruling on IEEPA tariffs provided a meaningful benefit to our cost structure in the second quarter of 2026, which we recognized as a receivable and subsequently sold for $80 million in cash. However, ongoing tariff payments, combined with higher memory and oil prices, continue to present headwinds to our cost structure. To date, none of these factors have materially impacted overall demand, apart from certain international markets with exposure to the Middle East conflict.

Second quarter 2026 reflects the continued benefits of the Lexmark acquisition and Xerox's transformation efforts. Pro forma¹ gross margins expanded year-over-year for the second consecutive quarter, driven by integration synergies, cost discipline, and an increasingly unified operating model. These gains are complemented by new product launches under the unified Xerox brand, growing partner validation, and a more focused go-to-market approach which is collectively positioning the company for continued operational and financial improvement in the second half of 2026 and beyond.

Equipment sales revenue of $387 million in the second quarter 2026 increased 15.2% in actual currency and 15.0% in constant currency² compared to the second quarter 2025, and included a 33.1-percentage point benefit from the Lexmark acquisition. Total equipment installations increased 97.0%, including the impact of the Lexmark acquisition, partially offset by declines in legacy Xerox installations, primarily in entry black-and-white and mid-range color equipment categories. Excluding the Lexmark acquisition, equipment sales revenue declined 17.9% in actual currency due to lower installations and a mix shift toward Entry products. On a pro forma¹ basis, second quarter 2026 equipment sales revenue declined 13.0%, primarily reflecting the impacts noted above, partially offset by modest growth from Lexmark.

Post sale revenue of $1,346 million in the second quarter 2026 increased 30.7% in actual currency and 29.7% in constant currency², compared to the second quarter 2025, and included a 37.5-percentage point benefit from the Lexmark acquisition. Excluding the Lexmark acquisition, post sale revenue declined 6.8% in actual currency primarily reflecting lower equipment service revenue and managed print services. Post sale revenue was also adversely impacted by intentional reductions in non-strategic revenue, including the exit of certain production print manufacturing operations in prior years, as well as a decline in financing revenue reflecting the continued sales of finance receivables to our various funding affiliates and lower originations. On a pro forma¹ basis, second quarter 2026 revenue decreased 3.9%, primarily reflecting the impacts noted above.

IT Solutions revenue of $189 million in the second quarter 2026 declined 10.0% in actual currency and 9.0% in constant currency², compared to the second quarter 2025. The decline was primarily driven by a mix of revenue subject to net classifications and revenue deferrals.

Pre-tax income of $31 million for the second quarter 2026 increased by $91 million compared to a pre-tax (loss) of $(60) million in the second quarter 2025. Pre-tax income margin of 1.6% improved by 5.4-percentage points compared to second quarter 2025 pre-tax (loss) margin of (3.8)% and included a 3.8-percentage point benefit from the Lexmark acquisition. The improvement in the second quarter 2026 pre-tax income margin was primarily due to higher revenue and gross profit, including a 5.5-percentage point benefit related to the IEEPA tariff receivables, Transformation-related cost and productivity actions, as well as lower Other expenses (income), net. The decrease in Other expenses (income), net primarily reflects the early repayment of a portion of our 5.50% Senior Unsecured Notes due August 2028, as well as a portion of our 13.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2031, offset in part by the change in fair value of the warrant dividend liability. These benefits were partially offset by higher SAG and non-financing interest expense, as well as higher RD&E, Amortization of intangible assets and Restructuring and related costs, net driven by the Lexmark acquisition. On a pro forma¹ basis second quarter 2026 pre-tax income margin improved by 4.1-percentage points primarily reflecting the impacts noted above.

Second quarter 2026 adjusted² operating income margin of 10.6% increased by 6.9-percentage points compared to second quarter 2025, and included a 6.6-percentage point benefit related to the IEEPA tariff receivables and an approximate 2.0-percentage point benefit from the Lexmark acquisition. Excluding the impact of the IEEPA tariff receivables and the Lexmark acquisition, the decrease reflects lower revenue, including post sale revenue and equipment sales revenue, reflecting an unfavorable revenue mix, including lower outsourcing, service, rental, and other revenues, as well as higher incentive compensation, product cost increases and lower financing fees. These impacts were partially offset by lower SAG expenses as well as productivity and cost savings related to Transformation. On a pro forma¹ basis second quarter 2026 adjusted² operating margin increased by 5.4-percentage points primarily reflecting the impacts noted above, as well as the impact of the Lexmark acquisition.

For full-year 2026, we expect revenue of approximately $7.6 billion up from above $7.5 billion, adjusted² operating income in the range of $555 million to $605 million up from $450 million to $500 million, and free cash flow² of approximately $250 million. Free cash flow² guidance reflects proceeds from the sale of IEEPA tariff receivables to a third party, which we expect to be reclassified into operating cash flow. Also benefitting free cash flow² relative to our initial guidance are lower expected capital expenditures and taxes. This is offset by higher full-year 2026 restructuring charges as a result of our increased synergy target, higher net interest expense as a result of the TPG JV, and lower than previously expected working capital.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have reported our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, we have discussed our financial results using the non-GAAP measures described below. We believe these non-GAAP measures allow investors to better understand the trends in our business and to better understand and compare our results. Management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Compensation of our executives is based in part on the performance of our business based on these non-GAAP measures. Accordingly, we believe it is necessary to adjust several reported amounts, determined in accordance with GAAP, to exclude the effects of certain items as well as their related income tax effects.

However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are set forth below, as well as in the second quarter 2026 presentation slides available at www.xerox.com/investor.

Adjusted Earnings Measures

• Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Income (Loss) per share (Adjusted EPS)
• Adjusted Effective Tax Rate

The above measures were adjusted for the following items:

Restructuring and related costs, net: Restructuring and related costs, net include restructuring and asset impairment charges as well as costs associated with our Transformation programs beyond those normally included in restructuring and asset impairment charges. Restructuring consists of costs primarily related to severance and benefits paid to employees pursuant to formal restructuring and workforce reduction plans. Asset impairment includes costs incurred for those assets sold, abandoned or made obsolete as a result of our restructuring actions, exiting from a business or other strategic business changes. Additional costs for our Transformation programs are primarily related to the implementation of strategic actions and initiatives and include third-party professional service costs as well as one-time incremental costs. All of these costs can vary significantly in terms of amount and frequency based on the nature of the actions as well as the changing needs of the business. Accordingly, due to that significant variability, we will exclude these charges since we do not believe they provide meaningful insight into our current or past operating performance nor do we believe they are reflective of our expected future operating expenses as such charges are expected to yield future benefits and savings with respect to our operational performance.

Amortization of intangible assets: The amortization of intangible assets is driven by our acquisition activity which can vary in size, nature and timing as compared to other companies within our industry and from period to period. The use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to our future period revenues as well. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods.

Non-service retirement-related costs: Our defined benefit pension and retiree health costs include several elements impacted by changes in plan assets and obligations that are primarily driven by changes in the debt and equity markets as well as those that are predominantly legacy in nature and related to employees who are no longer providing current service to the Company (e.g. retirees and ex-employees). These elements include (i) interest cost, (ii) expected return on plan assets, (iii) amortization of prior plan amendments, (iv) amortized actuarial gains/losses and (v) the impacts of any plan settlements/curtailments. Accordingly, we consider these elements of our periodic retirement plan costs to be outside the operational performance of the business or legacy costs and not necessarily indicative of current or future cash flow requirements. This approach is consistent with the classification of these costs as non-operating in Other (income) expenses, net. Adjusted earnings will continue to include the service cost elements of our retirement costs, which are related to current employee service as well as the cost of our defined contribution plans.

Transaction and related costs, net: Transaction and related costs, net are costs and expenses primarily associated with certain major or significant strategic M&A projects. These costs are primarily for third-party legal, accounting, consulting and other similar types of professional services as well as potential legal settlements that may arise in connection with those M&A transactions. These costs are considered incremental to our normal operating charges and were incurred or are expected to be incurred solely as a result of the planned transactions. Accordingly, we exclude these expenses from our Adjusted Earnings Measures in order to evaluate our performance on a comparable basis.

Discrete, unusual or infrequent items: We excluded the following item(s), when applicable, given their discrete, unusual or infrequent nature and their impact on the comparability of our results for the period to prior periods and future expected trends.

• Inventory-related impact - exit of certain Production Print manufacturing operations
• Gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt
• Transformation-related costs
• Lexmark - fixed asset-related purchase accounting adjustment
• Deferred tax asset valuation allowance
• Commitment fee expense
• Lexmark acquisition financing - escrow interest, net

Adjusted Operating Income and Margin

We calculate and utilize adjusted operating income and margin measures by adjusting our reported pre-tax (loss) and margin amounts. In addition to the costs and expenses noted above as adjustments for our adjusted earnings measures, adjusted operating income and margin also exclude the remaining amounts included in Other (income) expenses, net, which include certain other non-operating costs and expenses. We exclude these amounts in order to evaluate our current and past operating performance and to better understand the expected future trends in our business.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Margin

We calculate non-GAAP gross Profit and Margin by excluding the inventory impact related to the exit of certain Production Print manufacturing operations, included in Cost of services, maintenance, rentals and other, as well as fixed asset-related purchase accounting adjustments related to the recent acquisition of Lexmark.

Constant Currency (CC)

To better understand trends in our business, we believe that it is helpful to adjust revenue to exclude the impact of changes in the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. We refer to this adjusted revenue as “constant currency.” This impact is calculated by translating current period activity in local currency using the comparable prior year period's currency translation rate. This impact is calculated for all countries where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Management believes the constant currency measure provides investors an additional perspective on revenue trends. Currency impact can be determined as the difference between actual growth rates and constant currency growth rates.

Free Cash Flow

To better understand trends in our business, we believe that it is helpful to adjust operating cash flows by subtracting amounts related to capital expenditures. Management believes this measure gives investors an additional perspective on cash flow from operating activities in excess of amounts required for reinvestment. It provides a measure of our ability to repurchase debt, fund acquisitions, and pay dividends.
