2022 Financial Outlook

Free Cash Flow GAAP Reconciliation We define "free cash flow" as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of, and plus proceeds from, equipment and intangible assets. The equipment and intangible asset purchases and proceeds are included in cash flows from investing activities. Management believes that free cash flow provides useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations and working capital requirements. However, free cash flow is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. Accordingly, free cash flow should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity. The table below provides a reconciliation between net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow. $ Millions Net cash provided by operating activities Purchases of rental equipment Purchases of non-rental equipment and intangible assets Proceeds from sales of rental equipment Proceeds from sales of non-rental equipment Insurance proceeds from damaged equipment Free cash flow (1) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 $ 1,154 $1,176 $ 2,040 $ 1,934 (872) (913) (1,354) (1,208) (68) (34) (123) (53) 164 194 375 461 4 7 9 14 10 7 17 14 $ 392 437 $ 964 $ 1,162 Free cash flow included aggregate merger and restructuring related payments of $2 million and $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $3 million and $9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
