NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include our results of our consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
We use a 52- to 53-week year ending on the Friday nearest to December 31. 2024 is a 53-week year and 2023 was a 52-week year. The second quarter of 2024 and 2023 ended on June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to these periods.
Use of Estimates
We prepared our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that accompany these notes in conformity with U.S. GAAP, consistent in all material respects with those applied in our 2023 Form 10-K.
The interim financial information is unaudited, and reflects all normal adjustments that are, in our opinion, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. This report should be read in conjunction with our 2023 Form 10-K that includes additional information about our significant accounting policies and the methods and assumptions used in our estimates.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates and assumptions are used for (i) revenue recognition, including determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations and determining standalone selling price of performance obligations; (ii) inventory valuation; (iii) valuation of investments; (iv) valuation of long-lived assets and their estimated useful lives; (v) goodwill and other long-lived asset impairment analyses; (vi) stock-based compensation; and (vii) income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable. Actual results that we experience may differ materially from our estimates.
New Segment Structure
As a result of the Ag divestiture and our Chief Operating Decision Maker's ("CODM") revised organizational structure, effective in the first quarter of 2024, we reorganized our businesses under a new segment structure. This structure brings similar businesses together, which is expected to enhance our ability to achieve scale and growth consistent with our strategy. The updated segment structure is comprised of (i) Architects, Engineers, Construction and Owners ("AECO"), (ii) Field Systems, and (iii) Transportation and Logistics ("T&L"). Prior-year information has been adjusted to reflect the change in segment reporting.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The ASU updates reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through (i) enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, (ii) the composition of other segment items, and (iii) optional disclosures of more than one measure of segment profit or loss if the CODM uses those measures to assess segment performance and allocate resources. The ASU is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning in 2024 and subsequent interim reports. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Adoption of this ASU will result in additional disclosures related to the reportable segments.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU updates the annual income tax disclosures by requiring (i) specific categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, (ii) income taxes paid disaggregated by taxing authority and jurisdiction, and (iii) disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit). Additionally, certain existing disclosure requirements are removed. The ASU is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning in 2025 and is applied prospectively. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our financial reporting disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
There are no recently adopted accounting pronouncements.

NOTE 2. COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE
On January 28, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program (the "2024 Stock Repurchase Program") authorizing up to $800.0 million in repurchases of our common stock. The 2024 Stock Repurchase Program replaced the prior stock repurchase program, which was approved in August 2021 and has been cancelled.
Under the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program, we may repurchase stock from time to time through accelerated share repurchase programs, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, block purchases, tender offers, or by other means. The timing and actual number of any stock repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, our stock price, other available uses of capital, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. The 2024 Stock Repurchase Program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. At the end of the second quarter of 2024, there were remaining authorized funds of $625.0 million. The stock repurchase authorizationdoes not have an expiration date.
There were no stock repurchases during the second quarter of 2024. During the first two quarters of 2024, we repurchased approximately 2.9 million shares of common stock in open market purchases at an average price of $60.97 per share for a total of $175.0 million. There were no stock repurchases during the first two quarters of 2023.
Stock repurchases are reflected as a decrease to common stock based on par value and additional-paid-in-capital, determined by the average book value per share of outstanding stock, calculated at the time of each individual repurchase transaction. The excess of the purchase price over this average for each repurchase was charged to retained earnings. Common stock repurchases under the program were recorded based upon the trade date for accounting purposes.
NOTE 3. ACQUISITION
On April 3, 2023, we acquired Transporeon GmbH in an all-cash transaction. Transporeon is a Germany-based company and leading cloud-based transportation management software platform that connects key stakeholders across the industry lifecycle to positively impact the optimization of global supply chains, which aligns with our Connect and Scale strategy. Transporeon is reported as part of our T&L segment.
The total purchase consideration was €1.9 billion, or $2.1 billion, which included the repayment of outstanding Transporeon debt of $339.6 million. In allocating the purchase price, we recorded $1,390.1 million of goodwill, $939.8 million of identifiable intangible assets, $9.3 million of net tangible assets, and $256.6 million of deferred tax liability. See Note 3 "Acquisitions" of the 2023 Form 10-K for additional information.
Pro Forma Financial Information
The unaudited pro forma financial information presented in the following table was determined by combining the historical financial information of Trimble and Transporeon along with the effects from business combination accounting and the associated debt resulting from this acquisition as if the companies were combined beginning in the first quarter of 2022. This information is presented for informational purposes only, and it is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated as of that date. This information should not be used as a predictive measure of our future financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

NOTE 4. DIVESTITURE
On September 28, 2023, we executed a Sale and Contribution Agreement with AGCO that provided for the formation of a joint venture, called PTx Trimble, that operates in the mixed fleet precision agriculture market. The agreement was amended and restated on March 31, 2024, and the transaction closed on April 1, 2024. Under the terms of the agreement, we contributed our Ag business, excluding certain GNSS and guidance technologies, to PTx Trimble, an LLC. Following the closing of the transaction, we own 15% and AGCO owns 85% of PTx Trimble. The agreement provides AGCO with a call option and Trimble with a put option with respect to our retained interest in PTx Trimble. Ag was reported as a part of our Field Systems segment.

Upon closing of the transaction in the second quarter of 2024, we received $1.9 billion of cash proceeds from AGCO, subject to working capital adjustments. As a result, we deconsolidated $457.3 million of net assets, including $357.4 million of goodwill, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $1.7 billion. The gain included $275.6 million for our retained 15% ownership interest in PTx Trimble, which is reported as an equity method investment. The fair value of our equity method investment was determined by using a combination of the equity value, primarily based on the transaction price, and an option pricing model for a put and call option.
In addition to forming PTx Trimble, the parties concurrently entered into agreements that included the following:
•a seven-year renewable supply agreement (the "Supply Agreement") through which we will provide key GNSS and guidance technologies to PTx Trimble for use in professional agriculture machines sold by AGCO, on an exclusive basis with limited exceptions;
•a technology transfer and license agreement to govern the licensing of certain non-divested intellectual property and technology for use by PTx Trimble in the agriculture field and, upon expiration of the Supply Agreement, to govern fixed and variable royalty payments made to us by PTx Trimble;
•a trademark license agreement to govern the licensing of certain Trimble trademarks for use by PTx Trimble in the agriculture field;
•a master sale and distribution agreement through which PTx Trimble will serve as our channel partner for positioning services in the agriculture market; and
•a transition services agreement to provide contract manufacturing services for the divested products for two years following the closing of the transaction.

Additional details are unchanged from the information disclosed in Note 8 "Debt" of the 2023 Form 10-K.
Credit Facilities
2023 Term Loans
In 2023, we entered into two unsecured, variable-rate term loans comprised of a 3-year tranche for $500.0 million and a 5-year tranche for $500.0 million. In the second quarter of 2024, we repaid the term loans in full using a portion of the funds received in connection with the Ag divestiture.
2022 Credit Facility
In 2022, we entered into a five-year, unsecured, revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $1.25 billion. Subject to approval, we may increase the commitments for revolving loans by an aggregate principal amount of up to $500.0 million. The variable interest rate and commitment fees are based on our current long-term, senior unsecured debt ratings, our leverage ratio, and certain specified sustainability targets.
Uncommitted Facilities
At the end of the second quarter of 2024, we had two $75.0 million and one €100.0 million revolving credit facilities, which are uncommitted. Generally, these variable-rate, uncommitted facilities may be redeemed upon demand. Borrowings under uncommitted facilities are classified as short-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
16
Table of Contents
Covenants
The 2022 credit facility contains customary covenants, including, among other requirements, limitations that restrict our and our subsidiaries' ability to create liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions, and restrictions on the ability of the subsidiaries to incur indebtedness. The facility contains financial covenants that require the maintenance of maximum leverage and minimum interest coverage ratios, as well as the timely delivery of quarterly financial reports and compliance certificates. At the end of the second quarter of 2024, we were in compliance with our debt covenants under a waiver of the financial reporting covenants.
NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is measured by using observable or, to the extent necessary, unobservable inputs.
Financial instruments recorded at fair value include our deferred compensation plan. The fair value was $32.1 million and $31.2 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024 and the end of 2023, and is included in Other non-current assets and Other non-current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value was measured by using quoted prices in active markets.
Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis (debt) had an estimated fair value of $1.8 billion and $3.1 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2024 and the end of 2023. The fair value of the debt was determined based on observable market prices in less active markets. The fair values do not indicate the amount we would currently have to pay to extinguish the debt.
NOTE 10. DEFERRED REVENUE AND REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS
Deferred Revenue
Changes in our deferred revenue during the second quarter and the first two quarters of 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
Second Quarter of First Two Quarters of
(In millions) 2024 2023 2024 2023
Beginning balance of the period $ 818.6 $ 760.8 $ 761.4 $ 737.6
Revenue recognized from prior year-end (173.3) (141.7) (472.5) (435.2)
Billings net of revenue recognized from current year and other
168.3 126.5 524.7 443.2
Ending balance of the period $ 813.6 $ 745.6 $ 813.6 $ 745.6
Remaining Performance Obligations
At the end of the second quarter of 2024, approximately $1.7 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for which goods or services have not been delivered, primarily subscription, software, and software maintenance, and to a lesser extent, hardware and professional services contracts. We expect to recognize $1.2 billion or 69% of our remaining performance obligations as revenue during the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.
NOTE 11. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period plus additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock include outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, contingently issuable shares, and shares to be purchased under our employee stock purchase plan.
The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Basic earnings per share $ 5.37 $ 0.18 $ 5.60 $ 0.70
Diluted earnings per share $ 5.34 $ 0.18 $ 5.56 $ 0.70
Antidilutive weighted-average shares(1)
2.2 3.8 1.5 1.9
(1) Antidilutive stock-based awards are excluded from the calculation of diluted shares and diluted earnings per share because their impact would increase diluted earnings per share.
NOTE 12. INCOME TAXES
For the second quarter, our effective income tax rate was 25.3%, as compared to 22.4% in the corresponding period in 2023. For the first two quarters, our effective income tax rate was 25.1%, as compared to 20.5% in the prior year. The increases were primarily due to a geographic mix of gains from the Ag divestiture.
Unrecognized tax benefits of $59.4 million and $59.5 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024 and at the end of 2023, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. At the end of the second quarter of 2024 and at the end of 2023, we accrued interest and penalties of $11.9 million and $9.9 million.
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
At the end of the second quarter of 2024, we had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $543.6 million. These unconditional purchase obligations primarily represent (i) open non-cancellable purchase orders for material purchases with our inventory vendors, and (ii) various non-cancelable agreements with certain service providers with minimum or fixed commitments.
Litigation
From time to time, we are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of our business. There are no material legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party, or to which any of our or our subsidiaries' property is subject.

EXECUTIVE LEVEL OVERVIEW
We are a leading provider of technology solutions that enable professionals and field mobile workers to improve or transform their work processes. Our comprehensive work process solutions are used across a range of industries, including architecture, building construction, civil engineering, geospatial, survey and mapping, natural resources, utilities, transportation, and government. Our representative customers include construction owners, contractors, engineering and construction firms, surveying companies, energy and utility companies, trucking companies, and state, federal, and municipal governments.
Our growth strategy is centered on multiple elements:
•Executing on our Connect and Scale strategy;
•Focus on delivering customer outcomes that can enable productivity, quality, safety, transparency, and environmental sustainability;
•Focus on attractive markets with significant growth and profitability potential;
•Domain knowledge and technological innovation that benefits a diverse customer base;
•Increasing focus on software and services;
•Geographic expansion with a localization strategy;
•Optimized go-to-market strategies to best access our markets; and
•Strategic and targeted acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, and investments.
Our focus on these growth drivers has led over time to growth in revenue and profitability and an increasingly diversified business model. We continue to experience a shift toward a more significant mix of recurring revenue as demonstrated by our success in driving annualized recurring revenue ("ARR") of $2,113.0 million, which represents growth of 12%year-over-year at the end of the second quarterof 2024. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, acquisitions, and divestitures, ARR organic growth was 14%. Thisshift toward recurring revenue has positively impacted our revenue mix, growth, and profitability over time and is leading to improved visibility in our businesses. Our software, services, and recurring revenue represented 75% and 65% of total revenue for the second quarter of 2024 and 2023 and 74% and 65% of total revenue for the first two quarters of 2024 and 2023. Additionally, we continue to maintain focus on increasing our mix of recurring revenue, which is accelerated by the Transporeon acquisition that closed in the second quarter of 2023 and the Ag divestiture that closed in the second quarter of 2024.
As our solutions have expanded, our go-to-market model has also evolved with a balanced mix between direct, distribution, and OEM customers as well as enterprise-level customer relationships.
Throughout this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section, we refer to organic revenue growth, which is a non-GAAP measure. For a full definition of ARR, organic ARR, and organic revenue growth as used in this discussion and analysis, refer to the "Supplemental Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Annualized Recurring Revenue"found later in this Item 2.
Impact of Recent Events on Our Business
Acquisitions and Divestitures
We acquire businesses that align with our long-term growth strategies, including our strategic product roadmap and, conversely, we divest certain businesses that no longer fit those strategies. This is demonstrated by the 12 acquisitions and 22 divestitures that we have completed since 2020, including the Transporeon acquisition and the Ag divestiture.
On September 28, 2023, we executed a Sale and Contribution Agreement with AGCO that provided for the formation of a joint venture, called PTx Trimble, that operates in the mixed fleet precision agriculture market. The agreement was amended and restated on March 31, 2024, and the transaction closed on April 1, 2024. Under the terms of the agreement, we contributed our Ag business, excluding certain GNSS and guidance technologies, in exchange for $1.9 billion in cash proceeds, subject to
19
Table of Contents
working capital adjustments. Following the closing of this transaction, we own 15% and AGCO owns 85% of PTx Trimble. In addition to forming PTx Trimble, the parties concurrently entered into agreements that include the following: (i) long-term supply agreement for key GNSS and guidance technologies, (ii) technology transfer and license agreement, (iii) trademark license agreement, (iv) master sale and distribution agreement for positioning services, and (v) transition services agreement. Ag was reported as a part of our Field Systems segment.
Upon closing of the transaction, we recognized a pre-tax gain of $1.7 billion. The gain included $275.6 million for the fair value of our retained 15% ownership interest in PTx Trimble, an LLC, which is reported as an equity method investment.
The formation of PTx Trimble is expected to better serve farmers with factory fit and aftermarket applications in the mixed fleet precision agriculture market to help farmers drive productivity, efficiency, and sustainability. Additionally, the transaction is expected to (i) simplify our Connect and Scale strategy, (ii) reduce risk of channel transition in the agriculture market, and (iii) enhance our financial profile and flexibility with a resulting higher mix of software, services, and recurring revenue.
We repaid $1.0 billion of our variable-rate debt through use of the net proceeds and expect to use the majority of the remaining proceeds after tax to repurchase stock.
Macroeconomic Conditions
Macroeconomic conditions, including geopolitical tensions such as the ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East and between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions, exchange rate and interest rate volatility, and inflationary pressures, will continue to evolve globally. These macroeconomic conditions have had and may continue to have a negative impact on our results of operations.

Organic growth (10) % 11 % 1 % (12) % 12 % - %
Organic total revenue increased for the second quarter and remained flat for the first two quarters.
Organicproduct revenue decreased for the second quarter and first two quartersprimarily due to a large government sale of Surveying hardware in the prior year. Additionally, thedecrease for the first two quarters was due to lower Ag demand in the first quarter.
Organic subscription and services revenue for the second quarter increased primarily due to strong growth in subscription product offerings in AECO, and to a lesser extent, Positioning Services in Field Systems and Transporeon in T&L. Organic subscription and services revenue increased for the first two quarters primarily due to strong growth in subscription and software term licenses in AECO, and to a lesser extent, positioning services in Field Systems and enterprise and MAPS in T&L. The recurring growth was driven by increased subscription and term license sales to new and existing customers, as evidenced by overall organic ARR growth of 14%.
Gross Margin
Gross margin decreased for the second quarter and first two quarters primarily due to the Ag divestiture.
Gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased for the second quarter due to the strong growth of higher margin software and subscription sales, including from organic growth, and from the Ag divestiture's lower margin hardware sales. Additionally, the increase for the first two quarters was due to the impact of the Transporeon acquisition, which was not applicable in the first quarter of the prior year.
Operating Income
Operating income and operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased for the second quarter and first two quarters primarily due to the Ag divestiture, partially offset by organic revenue and gross margin expansion, and for the first two quarters, from the impact of the Transporeon acquisition.

R&D expense decreased for the second quarter primarily due to the impact of the Ag divestiture, and for the first two quarters, the divestiture impact was partially offset by expense related to Transporeon. We believe that the development and introduction of new solutions are critical to our future success, and we expect to continue the active development of new products.
S&M expense decreased for the second quarter primarily due to the impact of the Ag divestiture. S&M expense was flat for the first two quarters as the divestiture impact was offset by expense related to Transporeon.
G&A expense increased for the second quarter and first two quarters primarily due to divestiture transaction costs, partially offset by the impact of the Ag divestiture.

Non-operating income, net increased for the second quarter primarily due to the divestiture gain from the Ag divestiture and lower interest expense from the $1.3 billion repayment of debt. Non-operating income, net also increased for the first two quarters due to the Ag divestiture gain, partially offset by a foreign currency hedging gain associated with the acquisition of Transporeon in the prior year that was included in Other income, net.
Income Tax Provision
For the second quarter, our effective income tax rate was 25.3%, as compared to 22.4% in the corresponding period in 2023. For the first two quarters, our effective income tax rate was 25.1%, as compared to 20.5% in the prior year. The increases were primarily due to a geographic mix of gains from the Ag divestiture.
Results by Segment

Table of Contents
Operating Activities
The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by lower operating income resulting from the Ag divestiture, higher tax and interest payments, partially offset by reductions in net working capital requirements associated with a greater mix of subscription and services revenue.
Investing Activities
The increase in cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to the $1.9 billion of proceeds received from the Ag divestiture in the current year, as compared to the $2.0 billion payment in the prior year for the acquisition of Transporeon.
Financing Activities
The increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily driven by the $1.3 billion repayment of debt and $175.0 million repurchases of common stock in the current year, as compared to the prior year's $2.0 billion of proceeds from the issuance of debt for the acquisition of Transporeon, partially offset by the $300.0 million repayment of debt.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity under our existing lines of credit, along with cash provided by operations will be sufficient in the foreseeable future to meet our anticipated operating cash needs, including expenditures related to our Connect and Scale strategy, debt service, acquisitions, and any stock repurchases under the stock repurchase program.
Our 2022 credit facility allows us to borrow up to $1.25 billion, with an option to increase the borrowings up to $1.75 billion with lender approval. As of June 28, 2024, there was no outstanding debt under the 2022 credit facility.
Our 2024 senior notes totaling $400.0 million are maturing in December 2024. We anticipate using a combination of cash on hand, borrowing from our existing revolvers, or new debt to repay the 2024 senior notes.
In the second quarter of 2024, we completed the Ag divestiture and received $1.9 billionof cash proceeds, subject to working capital adjustments. The total tax payment for the transaction is $379.8 million, of which $50.0 million was paid in the second quarter of 2024, with the remaining amount to be paid within one year. We used a portion of the proceeds to repay $1.0 billion of term loans and expect to use the majority of the remaining proceeds after tax to repurchase stock.
Our cash requirements have not otherwise materially changed since the 2023Form 10-K.

SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND ANNUALIZED RECURRING REVENUE
To supplement our consolidated financial information, we included non-GAAP financial measures, which are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP. We believe non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding our "core operating performance", which excludes (i) the effect of non-cash items and certain variable charges not expected to recur; and (ii) transactions that are not meaningful in comparison to our past operating performance or not reflective of ongoing financial results. Lastly, we believe that our core operating performance offers a supplemental measure for period-to-period comparisons and can be used to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance, as well as our performance relative to competitors.
Organic revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure that refers to revenue excluding the impacts of (i) foreign currency translation and (ii) acquisitions and divestitures that closed in the prior 12 months. We believe organic revenue growth provides useful information in evaluating the results of our business because it excludes items that are not indicative of ongoing performance or impact comparability with the prior year. We provide reconciliation tables showing the change in revenue growth to organic revenue growth in the "Results of Operations" section found earlier in this Item 2.
In addition to providing non-GAAP financial measures, we disclose Annualized Recurring Revenue ("ARR") to give the investors supplementary indicators of the value of our current recurring revenue contracts. ARR represents the estimated annualized value of recurring revenue. ARR is calculated by taking our subscription and maintenance and support for the current quarter and adding the portion of the contract value of all our term licenses attributable to the current quarter, then dividing that sum by the number of days in the quarter and then multiplying that quotient by 365. Organic ARR refers to annualized recurring revenue excluding the impacts of (i) foreign currency translation, and (ii) acquisitions and divestitures that closed in the prior 12 months. ARR and organic ARR should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue as they are performance measures and are not intended to be combined with or to replace either of those items.
The non-GAAP financial measures, definitions, and explanations to the adjustments to comparable GAAP measures are included below:

Non-GAAP Definitions
Non-GAAP gross margin
We define Non-GAAP gross margin as GAAP gross margin, excluding the effects of amortization of purchased intangible assets, acquisition/divestiture items, stock-based compensation, deferred compensation, and restructuring and other costs. We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP gross margin as a way of understanding how product mix, pricing decisions, and manufacturing costs influence our business.

Table of Contents
Non-GAAP operating expenses
We define Non-GAAP operating expenses as GAAP operating expenses, excluding the effects of amortization of purchased intangible assets, acquisition/divestiture items, stock-based compensation, deferred compensation, and restructuring and other costs. We believe this measure is important to investors evaluating our non-GAAP spending in relation to revenue.
Non-GAAP operating income
We define Non-GAAP operating income as GAAP operating income, excluding the effects of amortization of purchased intangible assets, acquisition/divestiture items, stock-based compensation, deferred compensation, and restructuring and other costs. We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP operating income trends, which are driven by revenue, gross margin, and spending.
Non-GAAP non-operating expense, net
We define Non-GAAP non-operating expense, net as GAAP non-operating income (expense), net, excluding acquisition/divestiture items, deferred compensation, and restructuring and other costs. We believe this measure helps investors evaluate our non-operating expense trends.
Non-GAAP income tax provision
We define Non-GAAP income tax provision as GAAP income tax provision, excluding charges and benefits such as net deferred tax impacts resulting from the non-U.S. intercompany transfer of intellectual property, tax law changes, and significant one-time reserve releases upon the statute of limitations expirations. We believe this measure helps investors because it provides for consistent treatment of excluded items in our non-GAAP presentation and a difference in the GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates.
Non-GAAP net income
We define Non-GAAP net income as GAAP net income, excluding the effects of amortization of purchased intangible assets, acquisition/divestiture items, stock-based compensation, restructuring and other costs, and non-GAAP tax adjustments. This measure provides a supplemental view of net income trends, which are driven by non-GAAP income before taxes and our non-GAAP tax rate.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share
We define Non-GAAP diluted net income per share as GAAP diluted net income per share, excluding the effects of amortization of purchased intangible assets, acquisition/divestiture items, stock-based compensation, restructuring and other costs, and non-GAAP tax adjustments. We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP operating performance as reflected in a per share calculation as a way of measuring non-GAAP operating performance by ownership in the Company.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP operating income plus depreciation expense, cloud computing amortization, and income from equity method investments, net, excluding our proportionate share of items such as amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation, and restructuring costs. Other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure that we believe offers a useful view of the overall operations of our business because it facilitates operating performance comparisons by removing potential differences caused by variations unrelated to operating performance, such as capital structures (interest expense), income taxes, depreciation, and amortization of purchased intangibles and cloud computing costs.
Explanations of Non-GAAP adjustments
(A).Amortization of purchased intangible assets.Non-GAAP gross margin and operating expenses exclude the amortization of purchased intangible assets, which primarily represents technology and/or customer relationships already developed.
(B).Acquisition / divestiture items.Non-GAAP gross margin and operating expenses exclude costs consisting of external and incremental costs resulting directly from acquisitions, divestitures, and strategic investment activities such as legal, due diligence, integration, and other closing costs, including the acceleration of acquisition stock awards and adjustments to the fair value of earn-out liabilities. Non-GAAP non-operating expense, net, excludes one-time acquisition/divestiture charges, including foreign currency exchange rate gains/losses related to an acquisition, divestiture gains/losses, and strategic investment gains/losses. These are one-time costs that vary significantly in amount and timing and are not indicative of our core operating performance.
(C).Stock-based compensation / deferred compensation.Non-GAAP gross margin and operating expenses exclude stock-based compensation and income or expense associated with movement in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan

Table of Contents
liabilities. Changes in non-qualified deferred compensation plan assets, included in non-operating expense, net, offset the income or expense in the plan liabilities.
(D).Restructuring and other costs.Non-GAAP gross margin and operating expenses exclude restructuring and other costs comprised of termination benefits related to reductions in employee headcount and closure or exit of facilities, executive severance agreements, business exit costs, as well as a $20 millioncommitment to donate to the Trimble Foundation that was paid over four quarters ending in the first quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP non-operating expense, net, excludes our proportionate share of items recorded in income from equity method investment items, such as amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation, and restructuring costs.
(E).Non-GAAP items tax effected.This amount adjusts the provision for income taxes to reflect the effect of the non-GAAP items (A) through (D) on non-GAAP net income.
(F).Difference in GAAP and non-GAAP tax rate.This amount represents the difference between the GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates applied to the non-GAAP operating income plus the non-GAAP non-operating expense, net. The non-GAAP tax rate excludes charges and benefits such as (i) deferred tax impacts from tax amortization relating to a non-U.S. intercompany transfer of intellectual property and R&D cost capitalization impact to global intangible low-taxed income, and (ii) significant one-time reserve releases upon statute of limitations expirations.
(G).GAAP and non-GAAP tax rate percentages.These percentages are defined as GAAP income tax provision as a percentage of GAAP income before taxes and non-GAAP income tax provision as a percentage of non-GAAP income before taxes.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We use certain derivative financial instruments to manage these risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. All financial instruments are used in accordance with policies approved by our board of directors.
Market Interest Rate Risk
Our cash equivalents consisted primarily of interest and non-interest bearing bank deposits as well as bank time deposits. The main objective of these instruments is safety of principal and liquidity while maximizing return, without significantly increasing risk. Due to the nature of our cash equivalents-that they are readily convertible to cash-we do not anticipate any material effect on our portfolio due to fluctuations in interest rates.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We operate in international markets, which expose us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. Dollar and various foreign currencies, the most significant of which is the Euro.
Historically, the majority of our revenue contracts are denominated in U.S. Dollars, with the most significant exception being Europe, where we invoice primarily in Euro. Additionally, a portion of our expenses, primarily the cost to manufacture, cost of personnel to deliver technical support on our products and professional services, sales and sales support, and research and development are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily the Euro.
Revenue resulting from selling in local currencies and costs incurred in local currencies are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which can affect our operating income. As exchange rates vary, operating income may differ from expectations. In the second quarter and first two quarters of 2024, changes in foreign currency exchange rates had an unfavorable impact of $1.2 million and a favorable impact of $2.3 million on revenue, and a favorable impact of $1.4 million and $2.3 million on operating income.
We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the short-term impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on cash, debt, and certain trade and intercompany receivables and payables, primarily denominated in Euro, Canadian Dollars, British Pound, New Zealand Dollars, and Brazilian Real. These contracts reduce the exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rate movements, as the gains and losses associated with foreign currency balances are generally offset with the gains and losses on the forward contracts. We occasionally enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge the purchase price of some of our larger business acquisitions.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of such period because of certain material weaknesses in internal controls related to the accounting for the Company's business combination with Transporeon, certain information technology general controls ("ITGCs"), undue reliance on controls over information technology ("IT") interfaces, and the evaluation of standalone selling prices of performance obligations utilized in the accounting for revenue, all of which support the Company's financial reporting processes.
(b) Remediation of Previously Reported Material Weaknesses.
As reported in our 2023 Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on January 15, 2025, we previously identified certain material weaknesses in internal controls as noted above. Management, under the oversight of the Audit Committee is currently taking actions to remediate these material weaknesses.
•We have finalized the design of review controls over third-party valuation specialists to add greater levels of precision to detect and prevent potential misstatements, including the establishment of process and controls to evaluate adequate review and evidence used in the valuation of acquired intangible assets. The Company had an acquisition with a purchase price of $26 million in the second quarter of 2024 for which the Company successfully tested the operating effectiveness of the remediated design of applicable business combination controls.
•We are in the process of finalizing the design and implementation of controls of certain ITGCs for business systems related to the Company's financial reporting processes.
•We are in the process of finalizing the design and implementation of certain ITGCs and other controls for systems related to the Company's financial reporting processes, specifically on the IT interfaces that transfer data between the order processing system and (i) billing system; (ii) financial reporting system; or (iii) revenue calculation system impacting the majority of revenue.
•We are in the process of finalizing the design and implementation of controls over the evaluation of standalone selling prices of performance obligations utilized in accounting for revenue, including review controls over pricing and discounting.
While we have taken steps to implement our remediation plan, the material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the enhanced controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded through testing that the related controls are effective. The Company will continue to monitor the effectiveness of its remediation plans and refine plans as appropriate.
(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
In addition to the identified material weaknesses noted above, we are implementing a customer relationship management tool across our businesses as a strategic initiative that will replace many legacy systems and that could materially affect our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a - 15(f) and 15d - 15(f) under the Exchange Act). Other than as described above, there have been no changes which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter for which this report relates.
