This press release includes certain “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Resideo management believes the use of such non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted Cash Provided by Operations, assists investors in understanding the ongoing operating performance of Resideo by presenting the financial results between periods on a more comparable basis. See reconciliations of U.S. GAAP results to adjusted results in the accompanying tables.

Products and Solutions First Quarter 2026 Highlights

Net revenue of $706 million, up 9% compared to 2025Gross margin of 41.8%, up 40 basis points compared to 2025Income from operations of $128 million, compared to $136 million in 2025Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $177 million, or 25.1% of revenue, compared to $158 million, or 24.3% of revenue in 2025

P&S delivered net revenue of $706 million in the first quarter 2026, up 9% compared to first quarter 2025, including a favorable impact of approximately 200 basis points from foreign currency. Revenue grew year-over-year across substantially all our sales channels and product families. Revenue growth was driven by a combination of price realization, primarily in our OEM and security channels, and by customer demand for our new products, primarily in our retail and electrical distribution channels.

Gross margin was 41.8%, compared to 41.4% in first quarter 2025 due primarily to the continued achievement of structural operating efficiencies. Research and development expenses increased $9 million due primarily to investments supporting new product launches to drive future growth. Selling, general and administrative expenses were up $18 million driven primarily by a one-time litigation settlement. Restructuring expenses increased $7 million as we strategically optimize our global manufacturing footprint. Income from operations of $128 million in first quarter 2026 was down from $136 million in first quarter 2025 due primarily to the one-time litigation settlement and restructuring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA(1) grew 12% year-over-year to $177 million compared to $158 million in 2025.

ADI Global Distribution First Quarter 2026 Highlights

Net revenue of $1,206 million, up 8% compared to 2025Gross margin of 21.2%, down 40 basis points compared to 2025Income from operations of $34 million, compared to $34 million in 2025Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $66 million, or 5.5% of revenue, compared to $72 million or 6.4% of revenue in 2025

ADI first quarter 2026 net revenue of $1,206 million was up 8% year-over-year, and reflects average daily sales growth of 1% year-over-year and four extra sales days in the current quarter. Both growth metrics include an approximate 1% favorable impact from foreign currency. Net revenue growth was driven by demand in the security, professional audio-visual, and data communications categories, partially offset by the residential audio-visual category due primarily to a continued soft U.S. residential market.  E-commerce revenue grew 12% year-over-year, driven primarily by greater customer adoption. Exclusive Brands revenue also grew 7% year-over-year driven by positive momentum for our new products.

Gross margin was 21.2%, compared to 21.6% in first quarter 2025 due primarily to higher fuel costs for freight and unfavorable product sales mix. Research and development expenses increased $4 million due primarily to investments supporting new product launches that are intended to drive future growth. Selling, general and administrative were up $13 million driven primarily by higher variable costs during the four extra sales days. Income from operations of $34 million in first quarter 2026 was consistent with first quarter 2025 results. Adjusted EBITDA(1) decreased 8% to $66 million compared to $72 million in 2025.

Cash Flow and Liquidity

Net cash used by operating activities was $145 million in first quarter 2026, compared to cash used in operating activities of $65 million in first quarter 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by business separation activities, higher cash interest paid, and working capital dynamics. At April 4, 2026, Resideo had cash and cash equivalents of $438 million and total outstanding debt of $3.23 billion.

Outlook

The Company re-affirms its full year 2026 outlook and initiates its outlook for the second quarter 2026.

Forward-Looking Statements
This release and the related conference call contain “forward-looking statements.” All statements, other than statements of fact, that address activities, events or developments that we or our management intend, expect, project, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Although we believe forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, such statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause the actual results or performance of the Company to differ materially from such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, (1) our ability to achieve our outlook regarding the second quarter 2026 and full year 2026, (2) our ability to recognize the expected savings from, and the timing and impact of, our existing and anticipated cost reduction actions, and our ability to optimize our portfolio and operational footprint, (3) the amount of our obligations and nature of our contractual restrictions pursuant to, and disputes that have or may hereafter arise under the agreements we entered into with Honeywell in connection with the spin-off of Resideo from Honeywell, (4) the ability of Resideo to drive increased customer value and financial returns and enhance strategic and operational capabilities, (5) risks and uncertainties relating to tariffs that have been or may be imposed by the United States and other governments, (6) risks related to our anticipated separation of Resideo Technologies’ Products & Solutions and ADI Global Distribution businesses into two independent publicly traded companies, including the timing thereof and that we may experience operational or other disruptions as a result of the separation and the planning therefor, and (7) the other risks described under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and other periodic filings we make from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results, developments, and business decisions may differ from those envisaged by our forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update such statements to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of this press release and we caution investors not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
This press release includes certain “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and in accordance with Regulation G thereunder. Management believes the use of such non-GAAP financial measures assists investors in understanding the ongoing operating performance of the Company by presenting financial results between periods on a more comparable basis. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an alternative to reported results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Readers should also consider the limitations associated with these non-GAAP financial measures, including the potential lack of comparability of these measures from one company to another.

We have included reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and provided in accordance with U.S. GAAP at the end of this release. A reconciliation of the forecasted range for Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings Per Share for the second quarter of 2026 and for the full year 2026 are not included in this release due to the number of variables in the projected range and because we are currently unable to quantify accurately without unreasonable efforts certain amounts that would be required to be included in the U.S. GAAP measure or the individual adjustments for such reconciliation. In addition, we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. However, for the second quarter of 2026 and full year 2026 respectively, we anticipate the following expenses in our GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation: depreciation and amortization of $53 million and $212 million, interest expense, net of $46 million and $181 million, and stock-based compensation expense of $14 million and $58 million.

goeasy Ltd. Reports Results for the First Quarter 2026

Loan Portfolio of $5.36 billion at Q1/26 end, up 12% from $4.80 billion at Q1/25 end
Revenue of $413 million in Q1/26, up 2% compared to $405 million in Q1/25
Net Charge Off Rate1 of 17.8% in Q1/26, up 890 bps from 8.9% in Q1/25

MISSISSAUGA, ON, May 12, 2026 /CNW/ – goeasy Ltd. (TSX: GSY), (“goeasy” or the “Company”), one of Canada’s leading consumer lenders focused on delivering a full suite of financial services to Canadians with non-prime credit scores, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

“We continued to advance our six-point action plan in the first quarter, with cost efficiency measures already taking effect,” said Patrick Ens, goeasy’s Chief Executive Officer. “In March, we took decisive action to significantly reduce our exposure to merchant-originated loans. Our ending loan book size, total yield, and net charge off rate came in as expected. Our direct-to-consumer business remains strong, and with $560.1 million cash provided by operations before net principal written in the quarter, our liquidity position is solid as we manage through this transitional period.”

First Quarter Results

During the quarter, the Company generated $551.3 million in loan originations, down 19% compared to $676.8 million generated in the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in lending, consistent with the Company’s six-point action plan, was driven primarily by a reduction in merchant-originated automotive and powersports loan originations, as the Company implemented tighter credit underwriting measures in response to unfavourable credit performance in those portfolios. 

At quarter end, the consumer loan portfolio was $5.36 billion, up 12% from $4.80 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2025, but down $150.0 million or 3% from the end of the fourth quarter of 2025. Organic growth in the Company’s consumer loan portfolio was the main driver of growth in revenue, which increased 2% from $404.9 million in the first quarter of 2025 to $412.9 million in the first quarter of 2026. Total annualized yield (including ancillary products) realized on average consumer loans receivable1 was 27.9% in the quarter, down 330 bps from the same period in 2025, but up 130 bps from the fourth quarter of 2025. Total annualized yield decreased year-over-year mainly due to the impact of higher allowance for credit losses on interest receivable; the continued impact of the lowered maximum allowable rate of interest on the Company’s unsecured lending product; and a higher proportion of larger dollar value loans, which have reduced pricing on certain ancillary products.

During the quarter, the annualized net charge off rate was 17.8%, up 890 bps from 8.9% in the first quarter of 2025, but down 600 bps from the fourth quarter of 2025. Annualized net charge off rate increased year -over-year primarily due to higher charge offs in the merchant-originated automotive and powersports loan portfolios. The total allowance for credit losses on gross consumer loans increased to $541.2 million from $382.8 million as at March 31, 2025, mainly due to the Company’s current view of collectability and an increase in the credit loss outlook for the merchant-originated automotive and powersports loans. The rate of allowance for expected credit losses, defined as the allowance for credit losses on gross consumer loans receivable as a percentage of the ending gross consumer loans receivable, increased from 9.57% as at December 31, 2025 to 10.09% as at March 31, 2026, driven primarily by unfavourable changes in the macroeconomic forecast data used in the Company’s IFRS 9 allowance model.

Operating income for the first quarter of 2026 was $28.9 million, down 80% from $144.1 million in the first quarter of 2025. After adjusting for unusual and non-recurring items, the Company reported adjusted operating income2 of $36.9 million, a decrease from $147.4 million in the first quarter of 2025. The efficiency ratio1 for the first quarter of 2026 was 24.5%, a 160 bps improvement from 26.1% in the first quarter of 2025.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $53.0 million, down from net income of $38.7 million in the first quarter of 2025, and diluted loss per share was $3.22, down from diluted earnings per share of $2.28 reported in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted net loss2 for the first quarter of 2026 was $31.3 million, down from adjusted net income2 of $59.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in adjusted net income was primarily driven by lower adjusted operating income from lower total yield on consumer loans (including ancillary products) and elevated credit losses. Adjusted diluted loss per share1 was $1.90, down from adjusted diluted earnings per share1 of $3.49 in the first quarter of 2025.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Total assets were $5.82 billion as at March 31, 2026, an increase of 9% from $5.34 billion as at March 31, 2025, primarily driven by growth in consumer loans receivable and cash. Cash provided by operations before net principal written2 in the first quarter of 2026 was $560.1 million, compared to $410.7 million in the first quarter of 2025. The Company’s debt-to-adjusted tangible equity ratio3, a capital management measure for leverage, was 5.30x as at March 31, 2026, compared to 3.69x as at March 31, 2025. The average blended coupon interest rate for the Company’s debt as at March 31, 2026 was 6.6%.

As at March 31, 2026, goeasy had liquidity (cash on hand plus unused contractual borrowing capacity) of $1.10 billion (of which $743 million is not currently available to be drawn by the Company). Subsequent to quarter end, the Company used existing liquidity to repay the US$64.6 million senior unsecured notes that matured on May 1, 2026. The Company was not subject to financial covenant compliance, and was in compliance with all other applicable covenants, for the Revolving Securitization Warehouse Facility I as at March 31, 2026. The Company was in compliance with all of its covenants (including financial covenants) under its Revolving Credit Facility agreement as at March 31, 2026. The Company continues to progress toward transitioning to a replacement backup servicer and completing a satisfactory audit in respect of the Revolving Securitization Warehouse Facility I, completion of which will permit additional draws on the facility.

Selected Additional First Quarter Information

Updated 2026 Outlook

The Company disclosed its first quarter 2026 outlook, along with the relevant assumptions and risk factors, in its fourth quarter 2025 MD&A. The Company’s actual first quarter performance was consistent with its first quarter 2026 outlook across all three measures. The Company continues to focus on prudent management of liquidity, strengthening of credit performance, and alignment of its capital structure. Management remains confident in goeasy’s ability to return to its long track record of strong credit performance and returns that will reinforce confidence among shareholders and other stakeholders.

Q2 2026 Outlook

Full Year 2026 Commentary

Gross consumer loans receivable at period end

$4.9 to $5.1 billion

Expected to decline from December 31, 2025 level before resuming growth in the later part of the year

Total yield on consumer loans (including ancillary products)1

27.0% to 28.5%

Expected to improve over course of the year as charge offs decline

Net charge offs as a percentage of average gross consumer loans receivable1

16.0% to 17.5%

Expected to be in the mid-teens for full year 2026; improvement is expected as the year progresses

This outlook is subject to and based on the assumptions and risks set out in more detail under “Forward-Looking Statements”.

Share Repurchases and Dividend Payments

In consideration of recent developments that affected earnings in 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) made the decision to suspend the regular quarterly dividend on the Company’s Common Shares and to suspend share repurchases under its normal course issuer bid on an indefinite basis. These actions are aligned with management’s focus on prudently preserving capital and maintaining liquidity.

Adoption of Shareholder Rights Plan

The Company also announced today that the Board has approved the adoption of a shareholder rights plan (the “SRP”) pursuant to a shareholder rights plan agreement entered into with TSX Trust Company, as rights agent, dated May 12, 2026 (the “Effective Date”).

The SRP has been adopted to: (i) ensure that all shareholders of the Company are treated fairly in connection with any unsolicited take-over bid or acquisition of control of the Company (including by way of a “creeping” take-over bid); (ii) provide the Board and shareholders of the Company with adequate time to consider and evaluate any unsolicited take-over bid or similar transaction; and (iii) enable the Board to identify, solicit, develop and negotiate any value-enhancing alternatives, as may be considered appropriate, to any unsolicited take-over bids or similar transaction.

The SRP is similar to rights plans adopted by other Canadian companies and ratified by their shareholders. The SRP is not being adopted in response to any specific proposal or intention to acquire control of the Company, and the Board is not aware of any pending or threatened take-over bid for the Company.

Pursuant to the SRP, one right will attach to each issued and outstanding common share of the Company. Subject to the terms of SRP, the rights become exercisable if any person (together with certain related parties) becomes a beneficial owner of 20% or more of the outstanding common shares without complying with the “Permitted Bid” provisions of the SRP. In such event, holders of the rights (other than the acquiring person and its related parties) will be permitted to exercise their rights to purchase additional common shares at a substantial discount to the then market price of the common shares.

The SRP has been conditionally accepted by the Toronto Stock Exchange. While the SRP is effective as of the Effective Date, it is subject to ratification by the Company’s shareholders at a meeting of shareholders to be held within six months of its Effective Date. The Company currently expects to seek shareholder ratification of the SRP at a special meeting to be called and held within that six-month period (the “Meeting”). If the SRP is not ratified by shareholders within that six-month period, it, together with the outstanding rights, will terminate and cease to be effective.

A summary of the principal terms of the SRP will be included in the management proxy circular to be sent to shareholders in connection with the Meeting. The full text of the SRP is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at sedarplus.ca.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes forward-looking statements about goeasy, including, but not limited to, its business operations, strategy and expected financial performance and condition. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to forecasts for growth of the consumer loans receivable, annual revenue growth forecasts, strategic initiatives, new product offerings and new delivery channels, anticipated cost savings, planned capital expenditures, anticipated capital requirements and the Company’s ability to secure sufficient capital, liquidity of the Company, plans and references to future operations and results, critical accounting estimates, expected future yields and net charge off rates on loans, the dealer relationships, the size and characteristics of the Canadian non-prime lending market, the continued development of the type and size of competitors in the market, the inclusion of the SRP in the management information circular for any Meeting and the calling and the holding of any such Meeting and the timing thereof; and the approval, ratification and confirmation of the SRP. In certain cases, forward-looking statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, and/or can be identified by the use of words such as “expect”, “continue”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “aim”, “plan”, “believe”, “budget”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “foresee”, “target” or negative versions thereof and similar expressions, and/or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved.

Forward-looking statements are based on certain factors and assumptions, including expected growth, results of operations and business prospects and are inherently subject to, among other things, risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Company’s operations, economic factors and the industry generally. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements made by the Company. Some important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, goeasy’s ability to enter into new lease and/or financing agreements, collect on existing lease and/or financing agreements, open new locations on favourable terms, offer products which appeal to customers at a competitive rate, respond to changes in legislation, react to uncertainties related to regulatory action, raise capital under favourable terms, compete, manage the impact of litigation (including shareholder litigation), control costs at all levels of the organization and maintain and enhance the system of internal controls.

The Company cautions that the foregoing list is not exhaustive. These and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements, and further details and descriptions of these and other factors are disclosed in the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the year ended December 31, 2025, including under the section entitled “Risk Factors”.

The reader is cautioned to consider these, and other factors carefully and not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which may not be appropriate for other purposes. The Company is under no obligation (and expressly disclaims any such obligation) to update or alter the forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required by law.

The Company particularly cautions that the Q2 2026 outlook and full year 2026 commentary presented above under the heading “Updated 2026 Outlook” (the “2026 Outlook Information”) constitutes forward-looking information and that in formulating its outlook, the Company makes a series of assumptions, which include, but are not limited to, assumptions about Environmental Conditions (Stability in the macroeconomic environment; Continued demand for non-prime credit across); Portfolio Growth (Loan originations adjust as underwriting criteria are tightened, particularly within indirect channels); Liquidity & Funding (The Company prioritizes liquidity and covenant compliance; Continued access to funding at acceptable rates; Continued strong free cash flow from its existing portfolio); Revenue Yield (Portfolio yield expected to be negatively impacted by bad debts on interest receivable; Business mix shift to include more unsecured personal loan originations at higher yields; Total portfolio yield and net charge off as a percentage of gross consumer loans receivable on its lending products are as estimated in the Company’s budget and strategic plan); Credit Performance (Net charge offs as a percentage of gross consumer loans receivable perform in line with the Company’ budget and forecasts generated through the use of its proprietary credit and underwriting models; The mixture of customers acquired through each of the Company’s acquisition channels and the mixture of new and existing borrowers are as estimated in the Company’s forecast); Investment Performance (No material changes are assumed in the fair value of investments, and no forecast is made regarding the timing of realization of the investment portfolio); and Mergers and Acquisitions (No mergers or acquisitions are contemplated within the outlook period). These assumptions and expectations are subject to a number of risks, including the following, as well as those set out the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s MD&A: Environmental & Market Conditions (Uncertainty in consumer demand or broader economic conditions may adversely impact loan originations and portfolio performance; Deterioration in employment levels or economic stability could negatively affect credit performance and increase net charge off rates; Competitive dynamics or pricing pressures may impact margins and growth); Access to Capital & Funding (The Company’s ability to access capital on acceptable terms and maintain adequate liquidity to support operations and strategic priorities); Regulatory Environment (Changes to laws and regulations governing consumer lending that could impact product offerings, pricing or operations); Credit Performance (A material increase in net charge off as a percentage of gross consumer loans receivable beyond expectations, including adverse performance from prior vintages or new originations); and Operating Execution (The Company’s ability to successfully execute on its Action Plan, including underwriting changes, and operating model alignment and platform consolidation; Risks associated with transitioning originations and customer portfolios toward the easyfinancial platform). The 2026 Outlook Information constitutes targets established by the Company and is subject to change as plans and business conditions vary. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the 2026 Outlook Information. Actual results may differ materially.
