Q2 and increased 15.9%from 232 in Q3 of the prior year.Q3 marks the highest quarterly deal volume since Q4 2022,underscoring improving financing conditions,stabilizing inflation,and renewed investor confidence in sector fundamentals.Annual deal volume is on pace to increase 5.8%to 1,005 deals in 2025,up from 950 in 2024.With a strong Q3 relative to the same quarter in the prior year,we attribute this projected increase in annual deal volume to improving economic conditions and gradually easing financing costs.As we move into Q4 and clearer tariff policy continues to emerge,we anticipate a continuation of momentum in M&A activity in the T&L sector driven by these favorable market conditionsTotal capital invested in M&A deals in the T&L sector decreased 53.6%in Q3 to$11.0B from$23.7B in Q2,but increased 71.9%from$6.4B in Q2 of the prior year.The decrease from Q2 was largely driven by several larger-sized transactions in Q2,including DSVs acquisition of DB Schenker for$15.9 billion in April 2025.Comparatively,the largest transaction in Q3 was CMB.TECHs$3.7 billion acquisition of Golden Ocean Group,a Bermuda-based Dry bulk shipping company transporting ores,coal,grains,and fertilizers,in August 2025.Global Deal Analytics202520251,005 9508697725012004006008001,0001,20020252024202320222021Deal VolumeTransportation&Logistics M&A Update|Q3 2025|Page 6Source:PitchBook DataIn YTD 2025,we generally saw a shift in mix towards smaller-sized deals from the prior year,specifically in the lower middle market($0-$50 MM),which increased to 53.4%from 49.6%in 2024.The middle($50-$500 MM)and large cap($1000 MM )tranches of the market saw decreases to 33.6%and 4.3%from 35.6%and 6.7%,respectively,in the prior year.The upper middle market($500-$1000 MM)increased slightly to 8.6%from 8.1%in the prior year.As a%of total deal volume,PE buyers trended higher in YTD 2025 relative to strategic buyers,representing 38.6%of deal volume in the sector compared to 37.2%in 2024.YTD 2025 illustrates a reversal in the trend of decreasing deal volume from PE buyers and is indicative of renewed sponsor confidence in the sector,driven by improving credit conditions and a growing pipeline of actionable,high-quality targets.Following the trend in deal volume,total capital invested by PE investors(as a%of overall capital invested)decreased in YTD 2025 to 33.9%from 43.4%in 2024.YTD 2025 marks a continuation in the trend of strategic acquirers investing substantially more capital in M&A transactions than PE buyers in the T&L sector.Large strategic acquisitions,such as CMB.TECHs$3.7 billion acquisition of Golden Ocean Group(mentioned on the previous page)demonstrate robust interest from large strategic buyers seeking growth opportunities in the sector.Global Deal Analytics53.4I.6H.1A.5.43.65.69.7.1&.1%8.6%8.1%5.3%6.8%6.7%4.3%6.7%6.9.6%6.7%0 0 252024202320222021Deal Volume by Deal Size0-50 MM50-500 MM500-1000 MM1000 MM

Industry IndexS&P 500Index PerformanceIn Q3,the T&L Industry Index increased by 1.4%,but was outperformed by a 7.9%increase in the S&P over the same period.1.4%Public Markets7.9%Key External DriversOverall,the Transportation&Logistics sector tends to be closely tied to economic cycles,often experiencing growth during periods of economic expansion and infrastructure investment and declines during downturns in the broader economy.In September 2025,the Federal Reserve delivered its first rate cut of the year,lowering the target range to 4.00%4.25%and ending its sequence of rate holds.The move signals a pivot from the earlier“wait and see”stance,as policymakers respond to easing inflation and moderating labor market conditions.Despite the cut,officials remain cautious about further easing given ongoing geopolitical uncertainty,elevated input costs,and the risk of inflation persistence.Freight markets have shown mixed performance amid these macroeconomic shifts.Overcapacity in certain trucking segments and moderating demand have kept spot rates under pressure,while maritime and intermodal pricing has stabilized following prior volatility.Lower interest rates may ease financing costs for carriers and equipment investment,supporting a gradual improvement in freight volumes and overall sentiment within the T&L sector heading into

vehicle strategies The global,same-day delivery market has exploded,in large part due to advancements in logistics technology and shifting consumer preferences.Consumers are expecting faster fulfillment of online orders,and companies are responding by establishing micro-fulfillment centers and leveraging automation,including drones and autonomous vehicles,to enhance delivery speed and efficiency.Digital Supply Chain VisibilityTechnology enhances resilience and transparencyThe adoption of IoT sensors,AI-driven analytics,and blockchain platforms is improving real-time shipment tracking and forecasting.In 2025,firms are deploying digital twins and predictive logistics tools to manage disruptions and optimize inventory.Enhanced visibility is becoming a competitive necessity as global trade remains volatile.Labor Shortages and Workforce ChallengesRobotics and Automation to Address Labor Shortages and Workforce ChallengesDriver and warehouse labor shortages continue to impact the sector,raising costs and straining capacity.In 2025,companies are investing heavily in automation,robotics,and flexible employment models to address gaps.Amazon recently announced plans to automate a significant portion of its fulfillment network,potentially replacing up to 600,000 human roles over the next several years,underscoring the accelerating adoption of robotics and AI across logistics operations.Workforce training programs are also being expanded to build talent pipelines in critical logistics roles.Resilience Through Nearshoring and DiversificationGlobal trade shifts reshape network strategiesOngoing geopolitical tensions and tariff policies are pushing firms to rethink supply chain footprints.In 2025,nearshoring and regional diversification have accelerated as companies seek to reduce reliance on single trade corridors.Transportation and logistics providers are benefiting from demand for new cross-border and regional distribution networks.Emerging Trends in
