The three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 Cash Flows
Cash Flow from Operating Activities. Cash flows provided by operating activities include net loss adjusted for non-cash items and the effects of changes in working capital. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, operating activities resulted in net cash provided by operations of $20.8 million. Our reported net loss of $19.5 million, when adjusted for non-cash income and expense items, primarily depreciation and amortization, the gain on sale of property and rental equipment, inventory and bad debt reserves, gain on divestiture, deferred income taxes, and stock-based compensation, provided net cash inflows of $4.3 million. Cash flow changes from working capital included $38.8 million of inventory purchased ($30.0 million of inventory was transferred into our rental fleet primarily for replenishment purposes) and a $6.5 million outflow from accounts receivable. Cash flows from operating activities were favorably impacted by $26.8 million due to proceeds from the sale of rent-to-sell equipment, $21.5 million in net inflows related to manufacturer floor plans and $13.7 million in net inflow from accounts payable, accrued expenses, leases, and other operating liabilities partially offset by a $0.2 million net outflow related to prepaid expenses and other assets.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our cash used in investing activities was $3.5 million. This was mainly due to $10.0 million in purchases of rental equipment and non-rental property and equipment and other investing activities partially offset by $1.5 million proceeds from the divestiture as discussed in Note 15, $3.4 million proceeds from the sale of rent-to-rent equipment, and $1.6 million proceeds from the sale of non-rental property and equipment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our cash used in investing activities was $14.3 million. This was mainly due to $16.8 million purchases of rental equipment and non-rental property and equipment, the acquisition of Les Chariots Elevateurs Du Quebec Inc., and other investing activities, partially offset by $2.3 million proceeds from the sale of rent-to-rent equipment and $0.2 million proceeds from the sale of non-rental property and equipment.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, cash used in financing activities was $11.9 million. This cash outflow was due to the $9.1 million of net payments on our line of credit, long-term borrowings, and finance lease obligations, net payments of $1.1 million related to non-manufacturer floor plans, payments of $0.8 million for preferred stock dividends, and $0.9 million related to other financing activities.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, cash provided by financing activities was $29.5 million. This cash inflow was mainly due to the $34.5 million of net proceeds from our line of credit, long-term borrowings, and finance lease obligations, which funded the increase in net working capital previously noted. These cash inflows were partially offset by payments of $2.7 million for preferred and common stock dividends, net payments of $1.5 million related to non-manufacturer floor plans, and $0.8 million related to other financing activities.
Sources of Liquidity
Our principal sources of liquidity have been from cash provided by our service, parts and rental-related operations and the sales of new, used, and rental fleet equipment, proceeds from the issuance of debt, and borrowings available under our line of credit and floor plans. The Company also reported $23.9 million in cash as of March 31, 2026. For more information on our available borrowings under the revolving line of credit, senior secured second lien notes, and floor plans, please refer to Note 8, Floor Plans and Note 9, Long-term Debt. We consider the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely reinvested as we do not anticipate the need to repatriate funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs.
Cash Requirements Related to Operations
Our principal uses of cash have been to fund operating activities and working capital, including but not limited to new and used equipment inventories, purchases of rental fleet equipment and personal property, payments due under line of credit and floor plans, acquisitions, debt service requirements, stock repurchases, and preferred stock and common stock dividends. In the future, we may pursue additional strategic acquisitions and seek to open new start-up locations. We anticipate that the uses described above encompass the principal demands on our cash and availability under our line of credit and floor plans in the future.
