1. GENERAL

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include the accounts of Ryder System, Inc. (Ryder) and all entities in which Ryder has a controlling voting interest (subsidiaries) and variable interest entities (VIEs) required to be consolidated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto except for the update to our significant accounting policies for revenue recognition and leases discussed below. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included and the disclosures herein are adequate. The operating results for interim periods are unaudited and are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for a full year.

Update to Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" within Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. As discussed in Note 2, "Recent Accounting Pronouncements," effective January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) using the modified retrospective transition comparative method. We have recast all prior period amounts in this Form 10-Q to conform to the current period presentation based on our adoption of this new accounting standard. Refer to Note 2, "Recent Accounting Pronouncements," for additional information on the revised amounts. The significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting Topic 842 are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition

Lease & related maintenance and rental revenues includes ChoiceLease and commercial rental revenues from our Fleet Management Solutions (FMS) business segment. We offer a full service lease as well as a lease with more flexible maintenance options under our ChoiceLease product line, which are marketed, priced and managed as bundled products, that include the equipment lease, maintenance and other related services. We do not offer a stand-alone unbundled lease of new vehicles. We offer rental of vehicles under our commercial rental product line, which allows customers to supplement their fleet of vehicles on a short-term basis.

Our ChoiceLease product includes the lease of a vehicle (lease component) and the executory agreement for the maintenance, insurance, taxes and other services (non-lease components) related to the leased vehicles during the lease term. We generally lease new vehicles to our customers. Consideration is allocated between the lease component and non-lease component based on management's best estimate of the relative standalone selling price of each component. Our ChoiceLease product provides for a fixed charge billing and a variable charge billing based on mileage or time usage. Fixed charges are typically billed at the beginning of the month and variable charges are typically billed a month in arrears. Revenue from the lease component of ChoiceLease agreements is recognized based on the classification of the arrangement, typically as either an operating or a sales-type lease. Our commercial rental product includes the short-term rental of a vehicle (one day up to one year in length). All of our rental arrangements are classified as operating leases and revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis.

The majority of our leases are classified as operating leases and we recognize revenue for the lease component of the product line on a straight-line basis. The non-lease component for maintenance services is accounted for in accordance with revenue guidance in Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Maintenance services are not typically performed evenly over the life of a ChoiceLease contract as the level of maintenance provided generally increases as vehicles age. We recognize maintenance revenue using an input method, consistent with the estimated pattern of the costs to maintain the underlying vehicles. This will generally result in the recognition of a contract liability for some portion of the customer's payments allocated to the maintenance service component of the arrangement. Included in lease & related maintenance and rental revenues is non-lease revenue from maintenance services recognized in accordance with Topic 606 of $236 million and


7

RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(unaudited)

$225 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $475 million and $448 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Effective with the adoption of Topic 842, we recorded an after-tax cumulative effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings as of January 1, 2017, by approximately $315 million primarily to recognize a contract liability (deferred revenue) related to maintenance services, which was partially offset by costs capitalized related to sales commissions.

We recorded deferred revenue of $567 million and $566 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, related to the maintenance services component of our ChoiceLease product line. We also recorded capitalized sales commissions of $92 million and $93 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Included in capitalized sales commissions are initial direct costs of our leases of $53 million as of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 related to incremental sales commissions paid to our sales force as a result of obtaining ChoiceLease contracts. Refer to Note 3, "Revenue," and Note 5, "Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities" for further information.

Lease and rental agreements do not usually provide for scheduled rent increases or escalations. However, most lease agreements allow for rate changes based upon changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). ChoiceLease and rental agreements also provide for vehicle usage charges based on a time charge and/or a fixed per-mile charge. The time charge, the per-mile charge and the changes in rates attributed to changes in the CPI are considered contingent rentals and are not considered fixed or determinable until the CPI change or the equipment usage occurs. This consideration is allocated to the lease and non-lease components of the contract as it is billed to the customer based on the allocation determined at contract inception. Variable consideration allocated to the lease component is recognized in revenue on a straight-line basis for the remainder of the contract term and variable consideration allocated to the non-lease component is recognized in revenue using an input method, consistent with the estimated pattern of maintenance costs for the remainder of the contract term.

Leases not classified as operating leases are generally considered sales-type leases. We recognize revenue for sales-type leases using the effective interest method, which provides a constant periodic rate of return on the outstanding investment in the lease. We generally lease new vehicles under our sales-type lease arrangements. Therefore, there is generally not a difference between the net investment in the lease and the carrying value of the vehicles, and we do not recognize selling profit or loss at lease commencement. Revenue is recognized net of amounts collected from customers for taxes, such as sales tax, that are remitted to the applicable taxing authorities.

Significant Judgments and Estimates

Allocating consideration between lease and non-lease components in our ChoiceLease product requires significant judgment. We do not sell the components of our ChoiceLease product offering on a stand-alone basis. Judgment is required to determine the standalone selling prices of the lease and non-lease components in order to allocate the consideration on a relative standalone selling price basis.

We determine the standalone price of the lease component using the projected cash flows of the lease assuming a certain targeted return. We consider a number of factors to determine the targeted return, including the net present value of the projected cash flows in a ChoiceLease arrangement discounted at our weighted average cost of capital.

Our ChoiceLease arrangements include maintenance as a non-lease component of the contract. We determine the standalone price of the maintenance component using an expected cost plus margin approach. The expected costs are based on our historical costs of providing maintenance services in our ChoiceLease arrangements. The margin is based on historical margin percentages for our full service maintenance contracts in the SelectCare product line, as the maintenance performance obligation in those contracts is similar to maintenance in our ChoiceLease arrangements. Full service maintenance arrangements in SelectCare are priced based on targeted margin percentages for new and used vehicles by type of vehicle (trucks, tractors, and trailers), considering the fixed and variable costs of providing maintenance services. Certain ChoiceLease products include liability and/or physical damage insurance coverage to our customers. We charge a separate fixed monthly rate for these insurance offerings, which represents the standalone selling price.

We allocate the contract consideration (excluding insurance) between the lease and maintenance components based on the relative standalone selling prices of each of those services and allocate contract consideration for insurance based on the price of insurance, which is priced separately. If the lessee elects to obtain insurance coverage from us, the consideration for the fixed monthly rate is allocated to the insurance performance obligations.

RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(unaudited)

Variable consideration, such as billings for mileage and from changes in CPI, is excluded from the allocation of consideration at the inception of the contract. Revenues associated with licensing and operating taxes that are billed as incurred based on the contract arrangement are also excluded from the allocation of consideration at contract inception and allocated as earned. The variable consideration and licensing and operating tax revenues are allocated to the lease and maintenance components based on the same allocation percentages at contract inception (or the most recent contract modification) when earned.

Contract Balances

We do not have material contract assets as we generally invoice customers as we perform services. Contract receivables are recorded in “Receivables, net” in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Payment terms vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 15 to 90 days. As a practical expedient, we do not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component as the period between the receipt of customer payment and the transfer of service to the customer is less than a year.

Our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue related to maintenance services. We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, including amounts that are refundable. We classify deferred revenue for performance obligations we expect to perform within 12 months as current liabilities and for performance obligations to be performed later than 12 months as other non-current liabilities. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of the performance obligation.

As practical expedients, 1) we do not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that are part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less, and 2) we do not disclose information about remaining performance obligations when we have the right to invoice the customer and the revenue recognized corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date.

Leases

Leases as Lessor

We lease revenue earning equipment to customers for periods ranging from three to seven years for trucks and tractors and up to ten years for trailers. We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. The standard lease agreement for revenue earning equipment provides both parties the right to terminate; therefore, we evaluate whether the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the termination option in order to determine the appropriate lease term. If we terminate, the customer has the right (but not obligation) to purchase the vehicle. If the customer terminates, we have the option to require the customer to purchase the vehicle or pay a termination penalty. Our leases generally do not provide either party an option to renew the lease. We also rent revenue earning equipment to customers on a short-term basis, from one day up to one year in length. From time to time, we may also lease facilities to third parties. The majority of our leases are classified as operating leases. However, some of our revenue earning equipment leases are classified as sales-type leases.

Our determination of the residual values (i.e., the price at which we ultimately expect to dispose of revenue earning equipment) is established with a long-term view considering historical market price changes, current and expected future market price trends, expected lives of vehicles and extent of alternative uses. Factors that could cause actual results to materially differ from estimates include, but are not limited to, unforeseen changes in technology innovations, sudden changes in supply and demand, and competitor pricing. We have developed disciplines related to the management and maintenance of our leased vehicles designed to manage the risk associated with the residual values of our revenue earning equipment. In addition, we also monitor market trends throughout the year and assess residual values of vehicles expected to be sold in the near term and may adjust residual values for these vehicles.

Leases as Lessee

We lease facilities, revenue earning equipment, material handling equipment, automated washing machines, vehicles and office equipment. We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Effective with the adoption of Topic 842, we have established right-of-use (ROU) assets, which represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities, which represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement

(unaudited)

date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily determinable. Operating lease ROU assets also exclude lease incentives received. We pay variable lease charges related to property taxes, insurance and maintenance as well as changes in CPI for leased facilities; equipment usage for revenue earning equipment, automated washing machines, vehicles and office equipment; and hours of operation for material handling equipment. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, with the exception of our real estate leases, we recognize lease payments in our income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

Lease terms for the facilities are generally three to five years with one or more five-year renewal options and the lease terms for revenue earning equipment, material handling equipment, automated washing machines and vehicles typically range from three to seven years typically with no extension options. For purposes of calculating ROU assets and operating lease liabilities, lease terms may be deemed to include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Macroeconomic conditions is the primary factor used to estimate whether an option to extend a lease term will be exercised or not. None of our leasing arrangements contain restrictive financial covenants. Certain of our material handling equipment leases have residual value guarantees. We recorded operating lease ROU assets and finance lease assets totaling approximately $239 million and $245 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, related to leases as lessee. Refer to Note 6, "Leases".



2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Cloud Computing Arrangements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal Use Software (Topic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which amends Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 350-40 to address a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (CCA) that is a service contract. ASU 2018-15 aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a CCA that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Entities are permitted to apply either a retrospective or prospective approach to adopt the guidance. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this update on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Derivatives and Hedging

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). This pronouncement, along with ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments issued to clarify certain provisions of these ASUs, simplifies and clarifies the accounting and disclosure for hedging activities by more closely aligning the results of cash flow and fair value hedge accounting with the risk management activities of an entity. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this standard during the first quarter of 2019 and it did not impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). This pronouncement, along with subsequent ASUs issued to clarify certain provisions of ASU 2016-13, modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments, including our accounts receivable and net investments in sales-type leases. Among other things, these amendments require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The standard requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Periods

prior to the adoption date that are presented for comparative purposes are not adjusted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this update on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued Topic 842, which sets out the principles for the identification, measurement, recognition, presentation and disclosure of leases. The FASB issued a number of subsequent updates to the standard. Topic 842 impacts the accounting for both lessors and lessees. We have adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition method and initial application date of January 1, 2017. For all our facilities and equipment that we lease, we have elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components. For our existing operating and finance leases that commenced before the date of initial application where we are the lessee, we have made an accounting policy election to use the incremental borrowing rate for our leases considering the remaining lease term and remaining minimum rental payments. After lease commencement of our operating leases where we are the lessee, unless the ROU assets are impaired, we have made an accounting policy election to subsequently measure operating lease ROU assets by amortizing the ROU assets, calculated as the difference between the straight line cost for the period (including amortization of initial direct costs) and the periodic accretion of the lease liability using the effective interest method. In calculating the change in ROU assets from a lease modification that decreases our rights as lessee to use one or more underlying assets, we have made an accounting policy election of remeasuring the ROU asset based on how much of the original right of use remains after modification.

The new standard requires lessors to identify and evaluate the lease and non-lease components in arrangements containing a lease, provides clarification on the scope of non-lease components and provides more guidance on how to identify and separate the components. From a lessor perspective, the adoption of the new lease standard primarily impacts our ChoiceLease product line, which includes a vehicle lease as well as maintenance and other services.

The standard requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases. This classification determines whether the related expense is recognized based on asset amortization and interest on the obligation (finance leases) or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease (operating lease). We recorded a ROU asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. We have elected the practical expedient in Topic 842 to not apply these recognition requirements to leases with a term of 12 months or less with the exception of our real estate leases. Instead we recognize the lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

We determined that in a prior period certain lessor arrangements of revenue earning equipment historically accounted for as operating leases should have been accounted for as direct financing leases. Additionally, we evaluated our leases for classification and determined that certain lessee arrangements, primarily real estate leases, historically accounted for as operating leases should have been accounted for as capital leases. The prior period error was corrected by reducing "Lease & related maintenance and rental revenues" by approximately $4.4 million and $9.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. We also reduced depreciation expense (included in "Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental") by approximately $4.4 million and $9.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. We concluded these errors were not material to any of our previously issued consolidated financial statements.

The prior period error was corrected by increasing "Receivables, net" by approximately $24 million and also increasing sales-type leases and other assets by approximately $65 million and reducing "Revenue earning equipment, net" by $83 million. We concluded these errors were not material to any of our previously issued consolidated financial statements.

Contract Balances

We record a receivable related to revenue recognized when we have an unconditional right to invoice. There were no material contract assets as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018. Trade receivables were $1.07 billion and $1.09 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Impairment losses on receivables were not material during the second quarters of 2019 and 2018.

Contract liabilities primarily relate to payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Changes in contract liabilities are due to our performance under the contract. The amount of deferred revenue as of January 1, 2019 recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $43 million and $101 million, respectively. In addition, we deferred

17

RYDER SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(unaudited)

consideration of $45 million and $102 million received in advance of performance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, resulting in an increase in deferred revenue. Refer to Note 5, "Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities," for additional information on deferred revenue.

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized (“contracted not recognized revenue”). Contracted not recognized revenue includes deferred revenue and amounts for full service ChoiceLease maintenance revenue that will be recognized as revenue in future periods as we provide maintenance services to our customers. Contracted not recognized revenue excludes variable consideration as it is not included in the transaction price consideration allocated at contract inception. Contracted not recognized revenue was $2.8 billion as of June 30, 2019.

Costs to Obtain and Fulfill a Contract

We capitalize incremental sales commissions paid as a result of obtaining ChoiceLease, DTS and SCS service contracts as contract costs. Capitalized sales commissions totaled $106 million and $107 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Capitalized sales commissions include initial direct costs of our leases of $53 million at both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Capitalized sales commissions are presented in “Sales-type leases and other assets” in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

Capitalized sales commissions related to our ChoiceLease product are amortized based on the same pattern that the revenue is recognized for the underlying lease or non-lease components of the contract; generally on a straight-line basis for the lease component and consistent with the estimated pattern of maintenance costs for the non-lease component. We allocate the ChoiceLease commissions to the lease and non-lease components based on the same allocation of the contract consideration. The amortization period aligns with the term of our contract, which typically ranges from three to seven years, and amortization expense is included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in our Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings.

Capitalized sales commissions related to our DTS and SCS service contracts are amortized based on the same pattern that the revenue is recognized for the underlying contracts. This generally results in a straight-line amortization as the amount of revenue billed to the customer under DTS and SCS contracts corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date. The amortization period aligns with the expected term of the contract, which typically ranges from three to five years, and amortization expense is included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in our Consolidated Condensed Statement of Earnings.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the amount of amortization was $11 million and $9 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the amount of amortization was $22 million and $17 million, respectively.

Revenue earning equipment, net includes vehicles under finance leases of $13 million, less accumulated depreciation of $7 million, at June 30, 2019, and $23 million, less accumulated depreciation of $13 million, at December 31, 2018.

Revenue earning equipment held for sale is stated at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Losses on vehicles held for sale for which carrying values exceeded fair value are recognized at the time they arrive at our used truck sales centers and are presented within “Used vehicle sales, net” in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. For revenue earning equipment held for sale, we stratify our fleet by vehicle type (trucks, tractors and trailers), weight class, age and other relevant characteristics and create classes of similar assets for analysis purposes. For a certain population of our revenue earning equipment held for sale, fair value was determined based upon recent market prices obtained from our own sales experience for sales of each class of similar assets and vehicle condition. Expected declines in market prices were also considered when valuing the vehicles held for sale. These vehicles held for sale were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents our assets held for sale that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and considered a Level 3 fair value measurement:

Amounts are inclusive of fair market value adjustments on notes subject to hedging of $1 million and $10 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The notional amount of the executed interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges was $625 million and $725 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Refer to Note 8, "Derivatives," for additional information.

Asset-backed U.S. obligations are related to financing transactions backed by a portion of our revenue earning equipment.

We maintain a $1.4 billion global revolving credit facility with a syndicate of twelve lending institutions led by Bank of America N.A., BNP Paribas, Lloyds Bank Plc, Mizuho Bank, Ltd., MUFG Bank, Ltd., Royal Bank of Canada, U.S. Bank N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. The facility matures in September 2023. The agreement provides for annual facility fees that range from 7.5 basis points to 20 basis points based on Ryder's long-term credit ratings. The annual facility fee is currently 10 basis points, which applies to the total facility size of $1.4 billion.

The credit facility is primarily used to finance working capital but can also be used to issue up to $75 million in letters of credit (there were no letters of credit outstanding against the facility at June 30, 2019). At our option, the interest rate on borrowings under the credit facility is based on LIBOR, prime, federal funds or local equivalent rates. The credit facility contains no provisions limiting its availability in the event of a material adverse change to Ryder’s business operations; however, the credit facility does contain standard representations and warranties, events of default, cross-default provisions and certain affirmative and negative covenants.

In order to maintain availability of funding, we must maintain a ratio of debt to consolidated net worth of less than or equal to 300%. Net worth, as defined in the credit facility, represents shareholders' equity excluding any accumulated other comprehensive income or loss associated with our pension and other postretirement plans. The ratio at June 30, 2019, was 209%. At June 30, 2019, $501 million was available under the credit facility.

Our global revolving credit facility enables us to refinance short-term obligations on a long-term basis. Short-term commercial paper obligations not required for working capital needs are classified as long-term as we have both the intent and ability to refinance on a long-term basis. In addition, we have the intent and ability to refinance the current portion of certain long-term debt on a long-term basis. At June 30, 2019, we classified $861 million of short-term commercial paper and $400 million of the current portion of long-term debt as long-term debt. At December 31, 2018, we classified $578 million of short-term commercial paper, $200 million of trade receivables borrowings, $250 million of the current portion of long-term debt and $50 million of short-term debt as long-term debt.

In May 2019, we issued $550 million of unsecured medium-term notes maturing in June 2022. In February 2019, we issued $600 million of unsecured medium-term notes maturing in March 2024. The proceeds from these notes were used to pay off maturing debt and for general corporate purposes. If these notes are downgraded below investment grade following, and as a result of, a change in control, the note holders can require us to repurchase all or a portion of the notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of principal value plus accrued and unpaid interest.

In the second quarter of 2019, we executed a $50 million bank term loan maturing in April 2024 in one of our Canadian subsidiaries. In the first quarter of 2019, we executed two $100 million bank term loans maturing in February and March of 2024. The proceeds from these loans were used to pay off maturing debt and for general corporate purposes.

In May 2019, we received $298 million from financing transactions backed by a portion of our revenue earning equipment. The proceeds from these transactions were used for general corporate purposes. We have provided end of term guarantees for the residual value of the revenue earning equipment in these transactions. The transaction proceeds, along with the end of term residual value guarantees, have been included within "asset-backed U.S. obligations" in the preceding table.

We have a trade receivables purchase and sale program, pursuant to which we sell certain of our domestic trade accounts receivable to a bankruptcy remote, consolidated subsidiary of Ryder, that in turn sells, on a revolving basis, an ownership interest in certain of these accounts receivable to a committed purchaser. The subsidiary is considered a VIE and is consolidated based on our control of the entity’s activities. We use this program to provide additional liquidity to fund our operations, particularly when it is cost effective to do so. The costs under the program may vary based on changes in interest rates. The available proceeds that may be received under the program are limited to $225 million. If no event occurs that causes early termination, the 364-day program will expire on June 11, 2020. The program contains provisions restricting its availability in the event of a material adverse change to our business operations or the collectibility of the collateralized receivables. Sales of receivables under this program are accounted for as secured borrowings based on our continuing involvement in the transferred assets. No amounts were outstanding under the program at June 30, 2019. At December 31, 2018, $200 million was outstanding under the program.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had letters of credit and surety bonds outstanding totaling $373 million and $375 million, respectively, which primarily guarantee the payment of insurance claims.

The fair value of total debt (excluding capital lease and asset-backed U.S. obligations) at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, was approximately $6.89 billion and $5.97 billion, respectively. For publicly-traded debt, estimates of fair value were based on market prices. For other debt, fair value was estimated based on a model-driven approach using rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The fair value measurements of our publicly-traded debt and other debt were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets for “Cash and cash equivalents,” “Receivables, net” and “Accounts payable” approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.

8. DERIVATIVES

From time to time, we enter into interest rate derivative contracts to manage our fixed and variable interest rate exposure and to better match the repricing of debt instruments to that of our portfolio of assets. We assess the risk that changes in interest rates will have either on the fair value of debt obligations or on the amount of future interest payments by monitoring changes in interest rate exposures and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We regularly monitor interest rate risk attributable to both our outstanding or forecasted debt obligations as well as any offsetting hedge positions. This risk management process involves the use of analytical techniques, including cash flow sensitivity analysis, to estimate the expected impact of changes in interest rates on our future cash flows. Our derivative instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs.
 
As of June 30, 2019, we had interest rate swaps outstanding that are designated as fair value hedges for certain debt obligations, with a total notional value of $625 million and maturities through 2022. The fair value of these interest rate swaps was not material as of June 30, 2019. The fair value of these interest rate swaps was a liability of $10 million as of December 31, 2018 (presented in "Other non-current liabilities" in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets). Changes in the fair value of our interest rate swaps were offset by changes in the fair value of the hedged debt instruments. Accordingly, there was no ineffectiveness related to the interest rate swaps.

As of June 30, 2019, we had interest rate swaps outstanding that are designated as cash flow hedges for certain debt obligations, with a total notional value of $215 million and maturities through 2024. The fair value of these interest rate swaps was a liability of $7 million as of June 30, 2019 (presented in "Other non-current liabilities" in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets). The fair value of these interest rate swaps was not material as of December 31, 2018. There was no ineffectiveness related to the interest rate swaps.

During the second quarter of 2019, we entered into a cross-currency interest rate swap to manage the interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk associated with a floating-rate foreign currency-denominated borrowing by a Canadian subsidiary, with a total notional value of U.S. $50 million and a maturity date in April 2024. The cross-currency interest rate swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge. The fair value was not material as of June 30, 2019.

9. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

In December 2017, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program intended to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under our employee stock plans (the program). Under the program, management is authorized to repurchase up to 1.5 million shares of common stock, the sum of which will not exceed the number of shares issued to employees under the Company’s employee stock plans from December 31, 2017 to December 13, 2019. Share repurchases of common stock are made periodically in open-market transactions and are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors. Management may establish prearranged written plans for the Company under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as part of the program, which allow for share repurchases during Ryder’s quarterly blackout periods as set forth in the trading plan.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we repurchased approximately 345,000 shares for $21 million and 234,000 shares for $17 million, respectively.

Reflects the impact of adopting ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in 2018, which resulted in a reclassification of stranded tax effects caused by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet.

The gain from currency translation adjustments in the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $8 million was primarily due to the strengthening Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar offset by the weakening of the British Pound against the U.S. Dollar. The loss from currency translation adjustments in the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $28 million was primarily due to the weakening of the British Pound and Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar.

12. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

Share-based incentive awards are provided to employees under the terms of various share-based compensation plans (collectively, the “Plans”). The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Awards under the Plans principally include at-the-money stock options and unvested stock. Unvested stock awards include grants of market-based, performance-based and time-vested restricted stock rights. Under the terms of our Plans, dividends on unvested stock are not paid unless the stock award vests. Upon vesting, the amount of the dividends paid is equal to the aggregate dividends declared on common shares during the period from the grant date of the award until the date the shares underlying the award are delivered.

The following table provides information on share-based compensation expense and income tax benefits recognized during the periods:

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the below items were recorded in "Restructuring and other, net" in our Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings:

Restructuring and other, net - For the three months ended June 30, 2019, this primarily included charges related to cost savings initiatives and the pursuit of a commercial claim. In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, this also included income from our Singapore operations that was shut down during the second quarter of 2019. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, this primarily related to losses from our Singapore operations that was shut down in the second quarter of 2019, transaction costs and restructuring charges related to the acquisitions of MXD and Metro adjustments offset by an adjustment to the restructuring accrual recorded as of December 31, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, this also included a net benefit for an adjustment to the one-time Tax Reform-related employee bonus accrued as of December 31, 2017.

ERP Implementation - Related to charges with the implementation of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.

Goodwill impairment - Related to an impairment charge of goodwill associated with our FMS Europe reporting unit.

In addition, we recorded a gain on the sale of certain SCS properties during the three months ended June 30, 2019. The gain is reflected within "Miscellaneous Income" in our Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings.

Income Taxes
The decrease in the provision for income taxes in the second quarter and in the first half of 2019 primarily reflects an additional tax provision recorded in the second quarter of 2018 to adjust the provisional estimate for the one-time transition tax associated with the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

15OTHER MATTERS

We are a party to various claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our continuing business operations including, but not limited to, those relating to commercial and employment claims, environmental matters, risk management matters (e.g., vehicle liability, workers’ compensation, etc.) and administrative assessments primarily associated with operating taxes. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. We believe that the resolution of these claims, complaints and legal proceedings will not have a material effect on our consolidated condensed financial statements.

Our estimates regarding potential losses and materiality are based on our judgment and assessment of the claims utilizing currently available information. Although we will continue to reassess our reserves and estimates based on future developments, our objective assessment of the legal merits of such claims may not always be predictive of the outcome and actual results may vary from our current estimates.

17. SEGMENT REPORTING
Ryder is a global leader in transportation and supply chain management solutions. Our operating segments are aggregated into reportable business segments based upon similar economic characteristics, products, services, customers and delivery methods. We report our financial performance based on three business segments: (1) FMS, which provides full service leasing and leasing with flexible maintenance options, commercial rental, and contract or transactional maintenance services of trucks, tractors and trailers to customers principally in the U.S., Canada and the U.K.; (2) DTS, which provides turnkey transportation solutions in the U.S. that includes dedicated vehicles, drivers and engineering and administrative support; and (3) SCS, which provides integrated logistics solutions, including distribution, management, dedicated transportation and professional services primarily in North America. Dedicated transportation services provided as part of an integrated, multi-service, supply chain solution to SCS customers are reported in the SCS business segment.

Our primary measurement of segment financial performance, defined as segment “Earnings Before Tax” (EBT) from continuing operations, includes an allocation of Central Support Services (CSS) and excludes certain other items as discussed in Note 14, "Other Items Impacting Comparability." CSS represents those costs incurred to support all business segments, including finance and procurement, corporate services, human resources, information technology, public affairs, legal, marketing and corporate communications. The objective of the EBT measurement is to provide clarity on the profitability of each business segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each segment accountable for their allocated share of CSS costs. Certain costs are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in CSS, including costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation. CSS costs attributable to the business segments are predominantly allocated to FMS, DTS and SCS as follows:

Finance, corporate services, and health and safety — allocated based upon estimated and planned resource utilization;

Human resources — allocated under various methods, including based on estimated utilization and number of personnel supported;

Information technology — principally allocated based upon utilization-related metrics such as number of users or minutes of CPU time. Customer-related project costs and expenses are allocated to the business segment responsible for the project; and

Other — represents legal and other centralized costs and expenses including certain share-based incentive compensation costs. Expenses, where allocated, are based primarily on the number of personnel supported.

Our FMS segment leases revenue earning equipment and provides fuel, maintenance and other ancillary services to the DTS and SCS segments. Inter-segment revenue and EBT are accounted for at rates similar to those executed with third parties. EBT related to inter-segment equipment and services billed to DTS and SCS customers (equipment contribution) are included in both FMS and the segment that served the customer and then eliminated (presented as “Eliminations”). 

Segment results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. The following tables set forth financial information for each of our segments and provide a reconciliation between segment EBT and earnings from continuing operations before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Prior period segment amounts have been revised to reflect the adoption of ASC 842.

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



The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and notes thereto included under Item 1. As discussed in Note 2, effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) using the modified retrospective transition comparative method. We have recast all prior period amounts in this MD&A to conform to the current period presentation based on our adoption of this new accounting standard. Refer to Note 2, "Recent Accounting Pronouncements," for additional information on the revised amounts. In addition, reference should be made to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

OVERVIEW
Ryder is a global leader in transportation and supply chain management solutions. Our operating segments are aggregated into reportable business segments based upon similar economic characteristics, products, services, customers and delivery methods. We report our financial performance based on three business segments: (1) FMS, which provides full service leasing and leasing with flexible maintenance options, commercial rental, and contract or transactional maintenance services of trucks, tractors and trailers to customers principally in the U.S., Canada and the U.K.; (2) DTS, which provides turnkey transportation solutions in the U.S. that includes dedicated vehicles, drivers and engineering and administrative support; and (3) SCS, which provides integrated logistics solutions, including distribution, management, dedicated transportation and professional services primarily in North America. Dedicated transportation services provided as part of an integrated, multi-service, supply chain solution to SCS customers are reported in the SCS business segment.

We operate in highly competitive markets. Our customers select us based on numerous factors including service quality, price, technology and service offerings. As an alternative to using our services, customers may choose to provide these services for themselves, or may choose to obtain similar or alternative services from other third-party vendors. Our customer base includes enterprises operating in a variety of industries including food and beverage service, transportation and logistics, automotive, retail and consumer goods, industrial, housing, technology, and business and personal services.

In addition, our results of operations and financial condition are influenced by a number of factors including, but not limited to: customer contracting activity and retention, rental demand, used vehicle sales pricing and demand, maintenance costs, depreciation policy changes, currency exchange rate fluctuations, customer preferences, inflation, fuel and energy prices, general economic conditions, insurance costs, interest rates, labor costs, unemployment, tax rates, changes in accounting or regulatory requirements, and cybersecurity attacks.

This MD&A includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this MD&A for information on the non-GAAP measures included in the MD&A, reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measure and the reasons why we believe each measure is useful to investors.

Total revenue increased 7% and operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and subcontracted transportation) increased 11% in the second quarter of 2019. For the first half of 2019, total revenue increased 11% and operating revenue increased 12%. Revenue for both periods grew in all three business segments reflecting new business and higher volumes. EBT increased 1% and 11% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, reflecting improved operating performance, as well as gains on the sale of SCS properties, offset by lower used vehicle sales results.

Lease & related maintenance and rental revenues represent revenues from our ChoiceLease and commercial rental product offerings within our FMS business segment. Revenues increased 9% to $0.9 billion in the second quarter and 9% to $1.8 billion in the first half of 2019, driven by ChoiceLease fleet growth as well as higher prices on replacement vehicles. Lease & related maintenance and rental revenues growth also reflects higher commercial rental revenue driven by higher demand and pricing.

Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental represents the direct costs related to lease & related maintenance and rental revenues. These costs consist of depreciation of revenue earning equipment, maintenance costs (primarily repair parts and labor), and other costs such as licenses, insurance and operating taxes. Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental excludes interest costs from vehicle financing. Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental increased 9% in the second quarter and 8% in the first half of 2019, primarily due to higher depreciation and maintenance costs from larger average lease and rental fleets (both 10% higher in the second quarter). The first half of 2019 also reflected a significant maintenance cost recovery item. Cost of lease & related maintenance and rental also increased by $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $16.1 million in the first half of 2019, primarily due to higher depreciation as a result of changes in estimated vehicle residual values effective January 1, 2019.

Lease & related maintenance and rental gross margin increased 9% in the second quarter and 11% in the first half of 2019. Lease and rental gross margin as a percentage of revenue remained at 26% in the second quarter and in the first half of 2019. The increase in gross margin dollars in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to ChoiceLease fleet growth, partially offset by higher depreciation due to changes in estimated vehicle residual values changes and lower commercial rental utilization on a larger rental fleet.

Fuel services revenue represents fuel services provided to our FMS customers. Fuel services revenue decreased 4% in the second quarter and 3% in the first half of 2019, primarily reflecting lower fuel costs passed through to customers, partially offset by higher gallons sold.

Cost of fuel services includes the direct costs associated with providing our customers with fuel. These costs include fuel, salaries and employee-related costs of fuel island attendants and depreciation of our fueling facilities and equipment. Cost of fuel services decreased 5% in the second quarter and 4% in the first half of 2019 as a result of lower revenue.

Fuel services gross margin increased 8% in the second quarter and 20% in the first half of 2019. Fuel services gross margin as a percentage of revenue remained at 2% in the second quarter and increased to 3% in the first half of 2019. Fuel is largely a pass-through to customers for which we realize minimal changes in margin during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, fuel services margin is impacted by sudden increases or decreases in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel is established based on trailing market fuel costs. Fuel services gross margin in the second quarter and in the first half of 2019 was impacted by these price change dynamics as fuel prices fluctuated during the period.

Non-operating pension costs includes the components of our net periodic benefit cost other than service cost. These components include interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of actuarial loss and prior service cost. Non-operating pension costs increased $6 million in the second quarter and $11 million in the first half of 2019 due to unfavorable asset returns in 2018, partially offset by higher interest rates.

Used vehicle sales, net includes gains from sales of used vehicles, selling costs associated with used vehicles and write-downs of vehicles to fair market values. Used vehicle sales, net decreased to losses of $18 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $26 million in the first half of 2019, primarily due to higher valuation adjustments on a larger inventory. Average proceeds per unit in the second quarter and in the first half of 2019 increased from the prior year reflecting improved tractor pricing. The increase in tractor pricing was primarily due to improved market pricing. However, based on the demand and market conditions that began late in the second quarter, we expect pricing for our tractors to decrease in the second half of 2019. We will continue to monitor market trends for used vehicle sales pricing throughout the remainder of the year and assess fair values of vehicles expected to be sold in the near term as compared to their carrying values and we will, if required, adjust carrying values for those vehicles accordingly. Refer to Note 4, "Revenue Earning Equipment, net" for additional information.

Interest expense increased 42% in the second quarter and 43% in the first half of 2019, reflecting higher average outstanding debt and a higher effective interest rate. The increase in average outstanding debt reflects higher planned vehicle capital spending. The higher effective interest rate in 2019 reflects the replacement of lower fixed interest rate debt with debt issuances at higher fixed rates as well as the impact on variable rate debt during a higher interest rate environment.

Miscellaneous income increased to $22 million in the second quarter and $30 million in the first half of 2019. The increases are primarily driven by gains recognized on the sale of SCS properties. The increase for the first half of 2019 was also driven by higher rabbi trust investment income.

Non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this MD&A for a reconciliation of total revenue to operating revenue and segment total revenue to segment operating revenue for FMS, DTS and SCS, as well as the reasons why management believes these measures are important to investors.

As part of management’s evaluation of segment operating performance, we define the primary measurement of our segment financial performance as “Earnings Before Taxes” (EBT) from continuing operations, which includes an allocation of Central Support Services (CSS), and excludes certain other items as discussed in Note 14, "Other Items Impacting Comparability," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. CSS represents those costs incurred to support all business segments, including finance and procurement, corporate services, human resources, information technology, public affairs, legal, marketing and corporate communications.
The objective of the EBT measurement is to provide clarity on the profitability of each segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each business segment accountable for their allocated share of CSS costs. Segment results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Certain costs are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in CSS, including costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation. See Note 17, "Segment Reporting," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for a description of the methodology for allocating the remainder of CSS costs to the business segments.
Inter-segment revenue and EBT are accounted for at rates similar to those executed with third parties. EBT related to inter-segment equipment and services billed to DTS and SCS customers (equipment contribution) are included in both FMS and the segment that served the customer and then eliminated (presented as “Eliminations” in the table above). Prior year amounts have

been revised to conform to the current period presentation, which excludes EBT from our Singapore operations that will be shut down in 2019.

Non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of FMS total revenue to FMS operating revenue as well as the reasons why management believes this measure is important to investors is included in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this MD&A.

FMS total revenue increased to $1.4 billion in the second quarter and $2.7 billion in the first half of 2019 primarily due to higher operating revenue. FMS operating revenue in the second quarter increased to $1.2 billion and $2.3 billion in the first half of 2019 primarily from growth in the ChoiceLease and commercial rental product lines.

ChoiceLease revenue increased 9% in both the second quarter and in the first half of 2019 due to a larger average fleet size as well as higher prices on replacement vehicles. We expect favorable ChoiceLease revenue comparisons to continue through the end of the year based on strong sales activity. Commercial rental revenue increased 9% in the second quarter and 12% in the first half of 2019 due to higher demand and pricing. We expect favorable commercial rental revenue comparisons through the end of the year, however, at a declining growth rate compared to the growth we experienced in the first half of 2019. SelectCare revenue increased 9% in the second quarter and 10% in the first half of 2019 due to increased volumes. Fuel services revenue remained relatively flat in the second quarter and in the first half of 2019 primarily reflecting higher gallons sold, offset by lower fuel costs passed through to customers.

FMS EBT decreased 25% in the second quarter and 9% in the first half of 2019 reflecting lower used vehicle sales results. Used vehicle sales results reflected higher losses as a result of valuation adjustments of $10.4 million in the second quarter and $13.4 million in the first half of 2019 on a larger inventory. In addition, there was higher depreciation of $7.6 million in the second quarter and $16.1 million in the first half of 2019 due to vehicle residual value changes. FMS EBT was further impacted by increased overheads, including higher than normal levels of bad debt. These were partially offset by ChoiceLease growth and, to a lesser extent, commercial rental growth. Lease results benefited from fleet growth, reflecting strong outsourcing trends and our sales and marketing initiatives, as well as our maintenance cost-savings initiative. In addition, both lease and rental performance benefited in the first quarter of 2019 from a significant maintenance cost recovery item. Commercial rental performance modestly improved, reflecting higher demand and pricing. Rental power fleet utilization decreased 410 bps to 75.3% for the second quarter and 200 bps to 75.1% in the first half of 2019.

NYE units represent new vehicles on hand that are being prepared for deployment to a lease customer or into the rental fleet. Preparations include activities such as adding lift gates, paint, decals, cargo area and refrigeration equipment. NYE units increased 31% compared to June 30, 2018, reflecting lease fleet growth. NLE units represent vehicles held for sale and vehicles for which no revenue has been earned in the previous 30 days. Accordingly, these vehicles may be temporarily out of service, being prepared for sale or awaiting redeployment. NLE units increased 69% compared to June 30, 2018, reflecting a higher number of contract terminations, vehicles in the outservice process, and vehicles being prepared for sale or redeployment. We expect NLE levels to increase through the end of the year driven by the lease vehicle termination and replacement cycle.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)

DTS total revenue increased 10% in the second quarter and 13% in the first half of 2019 due to higher operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and subcontracted transportation). DTS operating revenue increased 16% in both the second quarter and in the first half of 2019 primarily reflecting new business and customer expansions. We expect revenue comparisons to remain favorable through the end of the year based on strong sales activity but to a lesser extent than experienced in the first half of 2019. DTS EBT increased 47% in the second quarter and 41% in the first half of 2019 due to revenue growth and improved operating performance. In addition, the first half of 2019 was impacted by favorable insurance results related to development of prior years' claims.

Non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of SCS total revenue to SCS operating revenue, as well as the reasons why management believes this measure is important to investors is included in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this MD&A.

SCS total revenue increased 7% in the second quarter and 17% in the first half of 2019 reflecting higher operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and subcontracted transportation). SCS operating revenue increased 12% in the second quarter and 18% in the first half of 2019 largely reflecting new business, higher pricing, and increased volumes. In addition, the first half of 2019 reflects an increase from the MXD acquisition during the second quarter of 2018. We expect negative revenue growth

towards the second half of the year due to the timing of lost business. SCS EBT increased 24% in the second quarter and 25% in the first half of 2019 driven by revenue growth and improved operating performance.

Cash provided by operating activities increased to $1.05 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared with $865 million in 2018, reflecting higher cash earnings along with lower working capital needs. Cash provided by financing activities increased to $937 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared with $514 million in 2018, due to higher borrowing needs associated with our increased capital expenditures. Cash used in investing activities increased to $1.95 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared with $1.39 billion in 2018, primarily due to increased capital expenditures.

Capital expenditures increased 50% to $2.25 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2019, reflecting planned higher investments in the ChoiceLease fleet. We expect full-year 2019 capital expenditures to be approximately $3.7 billion. We expect to fund 2019 capital expenditures primarily with internally generated funds and additional debt financing.

Financing and Other Funding Transactions

We utilize external capital primarily to support working capital needs and growth in our asset-based product lines. The variety of debt financing alternatives typically available to fund our capital needs include commercial paper, long-term and medium-term public and private debt, asset-backed securities, bank term loans, leasing arrangements and bank credit facilities. Our principal sources of financing are issuances of commercial paper and medium-term notes.

Our ability to access unsecured debt in the capital markets is impacted by both our short-term and long-term debt ratings. These ratings are intended to provide guidance to investors in determining the credit risk associated with our particular securities based on current information obtained by the rating agencies from us or from other sources. Lower ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs, as well as reduced access to unsecured capital markets. A significant downgrade of our short-term debt ratings would impair our ability to issue commercial paper and likely require us to rely on alternative funding sources. A significant downgrade would not affect our ability to borrow amounts under our global revolving credit facility described below, assuming ongoing compliance with the terms and conditions of the credit facility.

Our debt ratings and rating outlooks at June 30, 2019 were as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $93 million as of June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, approximately $18 million was held outside the U.S. and is available to fund operations and other growth of non-U.S. subsidiaries. If we decide to repatriate cash and cash equivalents held outside the U.S., we may be subject to additional income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. However, our intent is to permanently reinvest these foreign amounts outside the U.S. and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate these foreign amounts to fund our U.S. operations.

We believe that our operating cash flows, together with our access to the public unsecured bond market, commercial paper market and other available debt financing, will be adequate to meet our operating, investing and financing needs in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that unanticipated volatility and disruption in the public unsecured debt market or the commercial paper market would not impair our ability to access these markets on terms commercially acceptable to us or at all. If we cease to have access to public bonds, commercial paper and other sources of unsecured borrowings, we would meet our liquidity needs by drawing upon contractually committed lending agreements and/or by seeking other funding sources.

As of June 30, 2019, we had the following amounts available to fund operations under the following facilities:

In accordance with our funding philosophy, we attempt to align the aggregate average remaining re-pricing life of our debt with the aggregate average remaining re-pricing life of our assets. We utilize both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to achieve this alignment and generally target a mix of 20% - 40% variable-rate debt as a percentage of total debt outstanding. The variable-rate portion of our total debt (including notional value of swap agreements) was 22% and 28% as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Refer to Note 7, “Debt,” in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further discussion around the global revolving credit facility, the trade receivables program, the issuance of medium-term notes under our shelf registration statement, asset-backed financing obligations and debt maturities.

Our debt to equity ratios were 294% and 262% as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The debt to equity ratio represents total debt divided by total equity.

Pension Information

The funded status of our pension plans is dependent upon many factors, including returns on invested assets and the level of certain market interest rates. We review pension assumptions regularly and we may, from time to time, make voluntary contributions to our pension plans, which exceed the amounts required by statute. In 2019, the expected total contributions to our pension plans are approximately $34 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we contributed $16 million to our pension plans. Changes in interest rates and the market value of the securities held by the plans during 2019 could materially change, positively or negatively, the funded status of the plans and affect the level of pension expense and contributions in 2019 and beyond. See Note 13, “Employee Benefit Plans,” in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes information extracted from consolidated condensed financial information but not required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to be presented in the financial statements. Certain elements of this information are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined by SEC rules. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. Also, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to financial measures used by other companies. We provide a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure in this non-GAAP financial measures section. We also provide the reasons why management believes each non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in this section.
Specifically, we refer to the following non-GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-Q:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)

Set forth in the table below is an overview of each non-GAAP financial measure and why management believes that the presentation of each non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors. See reconciliations for each of these measures following this table.
Operating Revenue Measures:
 
 
 
Operating Revenue
FMS Operating Revenue
DTS Operating Revenue
SCS Operating Revenue
FMS EBT as a % of FMS Operating Revenue
DTS EBT as a % of DTS Operating Revenue
SCS EBT as a % of SCS Operating Revenue
Operating revenue is defined as total revenue for Ryder System, Inc. or each business segment (FMS, DTS and SCS), respectively, excluding any (1) fuel and (2) subcontracted transportation. We believe operating revenue provides useful information to investors as we use it to evaluate the operating performance of our core businesses and as a measure of sales activity at the consolidated level for Ryder System, Inc., as well as for each of our business segments. We also use segment EBT as a percentage of segment operating revenue for each business segment for the same reason. Note: FMS EBT, DTS EBT and SCS EBT, our primary measures of segment performance, are not non-GAAP measures.
Fuel: We exclude FMS, DTS and SCS fuel from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as fuel is an ancillary service that we provide our customers, which is impacted by fluctuations in market fuel prices, and the costs are largely a pass-through to our customers, resulting in minimal changes in our profitability during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, profitability may be positively or negatively impacted by rapid changes in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel services is established based on trailing market fuel costs.
Subcontracted transportation: We also exclude subcontracted transportation from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as these services are also typically a pass-through to our customers and, therefore, fluctuations result in minimal changes to our profitability. While our DTS and SCS business segments subcontract certain transportation services to third party providers, our FMS business segment does not engage in subcontracted transportation and, therefore, this item is not applicable to FMS.
Comparable Earnings Measures:
 
 
 
Comparable earnings before income tax (EBT)
Comparable earnings
Comparable earnings per diluted common share (EPS)
Comparable provision for income taxes
Comparable EBT, comparable earnings, comparable EPS and comparable provision for income taxes are defined, respectively, as GAAP EBT, earnings, EPS and provision for income taxes, all from continuing operations, excluding (1) non-operating pension costs and (2) any other significant items that are not representative of our business operations. We believe these comparable earnings measures provide useful information to investors and allow for better year-over-year comparison of operating performance.
Non-Operating Pension Costs: Our comparable earnings measures exclude non-operating pension costs, which include the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost, interest cost and expected return on plan assets components of pension and postretirement benefit costs. We exclude non-operating pension costs because we consider these to be impacted by financial market performance and outside the operational performance of our business.
Other Significant Items: Our comparable earnings measures also exclude other significant items that are not representative of our business operations as detailed in the reconciliation table below - page 57. These other significant items vary from period to period and, in some periods, there may be no such significant items.

Calculation of comparable tax rate: The comparable provision for income taxes is computed using the same methodology as the GAAP provision for income taxes. Income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated based on the statutory tax rates of the jurisdictions to which the non-GAAP adjustments relate.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)

 
 
 
 
Cash Flow Measures:
 
 
 
Total Cash Generated
Free Cash Flow

We consider total cash generated and free cash flow to be important measures of comparative operating performance, as our principal sources of operating liquidity are cash from operations and proceeds from the sale of revenue earning equipment.
Total Cash Generated: Total cash generated is defined as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment, (3) net cash provided by the sale of operating property and equipment and (4) other cash inflows from investing activities. We believe total cash generated is an important measure of total cash flows generated from our ongoing business activities.
Free Cash Flow: We refer to the net amount of cash generated from operating activities and investing activities (excluding acquisitions) from continuing operations as “free cash flow”. We calculate free cash flow as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment and operating property and equipment, (3) other cash inflows from investing activities, less (4) purchases of property and revenue earning equipment. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available for debt service and for shareholders, after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations. Our calculation of free cash flow may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.
* See Total Cash Generated and Free Cash Flow reconciliations in the Financial Resources and Liquidity section of Management's Discussion and Analysis.

(1) Refer to Note 14, “Other Items Impacting Comparability,” in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information.
(2) In the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a $5 million charge to our tax provision for income taxes due to expiring state net operating losses, never previously benefited in the tax rate, offset by a $1 million tax benefit due to a tax law change. In the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded an additional $29 million adjustment to increase the provisional estimate for the one-time transition tax offset by a $1 million tax benefit for state enacted law changes.
In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a $1 million unfavorable tax adjustment related to the prior provisional estimate from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act offset by a $3 million tax benefit for certain uncertain tax positions that should have been reversed in prior periods due to expiring statutes of limitations.

These risk factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

Market Conditions:
 
Ÿ
 
Changes in general economic and financial conditions in the U.S. and worldwide leading to decreased demand for our services, lower profit margins, increased levels of bad debt and reduced access to credit and financial markets
 
Ÿ
 
Decreases in freight demand which would impact both our transactional and variable-based contractual business
 
Ÿ
 
Changes in our customers’ operations, financial condition or business environment that may limit their demand for, or ability to purchase, our services
 
Ÿ
 
Decreases in market demand or increases in supply affecting the commercial rental market and used vehicle sales in certain industry segments including for-hire transportation and consumer packaged goods sectors, as well as global economic conditions

Volatility in customer volumes and shifting customer demand in the industries serviced by our SCS business
 
Ÿ
 
Changes in current financial, tax or regulatory requirements that could negatively impact our financial results
Competition:

Advances in technology may impact demand for our services or may require increased investments to remain competitive, and our customers may not be willing to accept higher prices to cover the cost of these investments
 
Ÿ
 
Competition from other service providers, some of which have greater capital resources or lower capital costs, or from our customers, who may choose to provide services themselves
 
Ÿ
 
Continued consolidation in the markets in which we operate which may create large competitors with greater financial resources
 
Ÿ
 
Our inability to maintain current pricing levels due to economic conditions, demand for services, customer acceptance or competition

New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors or to assess the impact of such risk factors on our business. As a result, no assurance can be given as to our future results or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. We do not intend, or assume any obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes to Ryder’s exposures to market risks since December 31, 2018. Please refer to the 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a complete discussion of Ryder’s exposures to market risks.


63



ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the second quarter of 2019, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including Ryder’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Ryder’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the second quarter of 2019, Ryder’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Beginning January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” and related amendments (collectively, the “new lease standard”). As a result of our adoption of the new lease standard, we implemented significant new lease accounting systems, processes and internal controls over lease accounting to assist us in the application of the new lease standard. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were no other changes in Ryder’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect such internal control over financial reporting.


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2019, contains a discussion of our risk factors. Our operations could also be affected by additional risk factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently consider immaterial to our business. To our knowledge and except to the extent additional factual information disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to such risk factors, there have been no material changes in the risk factors described in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2019.

(1)
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we purchased an aggregate of 1,638 shares of our common stock in employee-related transactions. Employee-related transactions may include: (i) shares of common stock withheld as payment for the exercise price of options exercised or to satisfy the employees' tax withholding liability associated with our share-based compensation programs and (ii) open-market purchases by the trustee of Ryder’s deferred compensation plans relating to investments by employees in our stock, one of the investment options available under the plans.

(2)
In December 2017, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program intended to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under our employee stock plans (the program). Under the program, management is authorized to repurchase up to 1.5 million shares of common stock, the sum of which will not exceed the number of shares issued to employees under the Company’s employee stock plans from December 31, 2017 to December 13, 2019. Share repurchases of common stock are made periodically in open-market transactions and are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors. Management may establish prearranged written plans for the Company under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as part of the program, which allow for share repurchases during Ryder’s quarterly blackout periods as set forth in the trading plan.
