NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

(A) 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 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K except for the accounting changes described below relating to transfers of financial assets and consolidation of VIEs, and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto. These financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. 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. Prior year amounts have been restated to conform to the current period presentation.

(B) ACCOUNTING CHANGES

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued accounting and disclosure guidance for transfers of financial assets occurring on or after January 1, 2010. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance which amends the consolidation principles for variable interest entities by requiring consolidation of VIEs based on which party has control of the entity. The guidance was effective beginning January 1, 2010. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(C) ACQUISITIONS

On February 2, 2009, we acquired the assets of Edart Leasing LLC (“Edart”), which included Edart’s fleet of approximately 1,600 vehicles and more than 340 contractual customers from Edart’s five locations in Connecticut for a purchase price of $85.2 million, of which $2.1 million and $81.3 million was paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Goodwill and customer relationship intangibles related to the Edart acquisition totaled $14.7 million and $4.3 million, respectively. The combined network operates under the Ryder name, complementing our Fleet Management Solutions (FMS) business segment market coverage in the Northeast. We also acquired approximately 525 vehicles for remarketing, the majority of which have been sold.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we paid $4.7 million and $4.4 million, respectively, related to other acquisitions including payments for acquisitions completed in prior years.

(D) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In 2009, we ceased Supply Chain Solutions (SCS) service operations in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and European markets. Accordingly, results of these operations, financial position and cash flows are separately reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented either in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements or notes thereto.

Summarized results of discontinued operations were as follows:


	Three months ended September 30,						Nine months ended September 30,
	2010			2009			2010			2009
	(In thousands)

Total revenue	$	—			10,056		$	110			69,972

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

Loss from discontinued operations before income taxes in the third quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2010 included $0.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of losses related to adverse legal developments, professional services and administrative costs associated with our discontinued South American operations.

Loss from discontinued operations before income taxes in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009 included $3.1 million and $9.2 million, respectively, of operating losses incurred in the wind-down of our South American and European operations. Loss from discontinued operations before income taxes in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009 also included $1.5 million and $3.7 million, respectively, of exit-related restructuring charges and other items associated with these operations.

We are subject to various claims, tax assessments and administrative proceedings associated with our discontinued operations. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. However, at this time, it is not possible for us to determine fully the ultimate effect of all unasserted claims and assessments on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Additional adjustments and expenses may be recorded through discontinued operations in future periods as further relevant information becomes available. Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of these matters, we do not expect that any resulting liability will have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

The following is a summary of assets and liabilities of discontinued operations:


	September 30,		December 31,
	2010		2009
	(In thousands)
Assets:
Total current assets	$	4,451	$	3,671
Total assets	$	6,665	$	7,631

Liabilities:
Total current liabilities	$	1,314	$	7,713
Total liabilities	$	7,031	$	12,869

(E) 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, nonvested stock and cash awards. Share-based compensation expense is generally recorded in “Salaries and employee-related costs” in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings.

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


	Three months ended September 30,						Nine months ended September 30,
	2010			2009			2010			2009
	(In thousands)

Stock option and stock purchase plans	$	2,311			2,591		$	6,803			7,630
Nonvested stock		1,876			1,872			5,400			4,901

Share-based compensation expense		4,187			4,463			12,203			12,531
Income tax benefit		(1,408	)		(1,560	)		(4,149	)		(4,099	)

Share-based compensation expense, net of tax	$	2,779			2,903		$	8,054			8,432

During each of the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, approximately 900,000 stock options were granted under the Plans. These awards, which generally vest one-third each year from the date of grant, are fully vested three years from the grant date and have contractual terms of seven years. The fair value of each option award at the date of grant was estimated using a Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing valuation model. The weighted-average fair value per option granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $8.93 and $9.23, respectively.

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

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, approximately 260,000 and 200,000 awards, respectively, of restricted stock rights and restricted stock units (RSUs) were granted under the Plans. The majority of the restricted stock rights granted during the periods included a market-based vesting provision, and the remainder are time-vested awards. Employees only receive the grant of stock if Ryder’s cumulative average total shareholder return (TSR) at least meets the S&P 500 cumulative average TSR over an applicable three-year period. The fair value of the market-based restricted stock rights was estimated using a lattice-based option-pricing valuation model that incorporates a Monte-Carlo simulation. Fair value of the time-vested awards was determined and fixed on the grant date based on Ryder’s stock price on the date of grant. The weighted-average fair value per restricted stock right and RSU granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $22.22 and $18.19, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, employees who received market-based restricted stock rights also received market-based cash awards. The awards have the same vesting provisions as the market-based restricted stock rights except that Ryder’s TSR must at least meet the TSR of the 33rd percentile of the S&P 500. The cash awards are accounted for as liability awards under the share-based compensation accounting guidance as the awards are based upon the performance of our common stock and are settled in cash. As a result, the liability is adjusted to reflect fair value at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the cash awards was estimated using a lattice-based option-pricing valuation model that incorporates a Monte-Carlo simulation.

The following table is a summary of compensation expense recognized related to cash awards in addition to the share-based compensation expense reported in the previous table:


	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2010		2009		2010		2009
	(In thousands)

Cash awards	$	452		1,148	$	1,224		1,774

Total unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense related to share-based compensation arrangements at September 30, 2010 was $25.3 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.8 years.

(F) EARNINGS PER SHARE

We compute earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Our nonvested stock are considered participating securities since the share-based awards contain a non-forfeitable right to dividend equivalents irrespective of whether the awards ultimately vest. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.

(G) RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

Restructuring and other charges, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 consisted primarily of debt extinguishment charges of $3.9 million incurred as part of a $100 million debt tender offer completed in September 2009. Restructuring and other charges, net in the third quarter of 2009 also included a benefit of $0.2 million related to refinements in estimates of employee severance and benefit costs. Restructuring and other charges, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 also included $2.4 million employee severance and benefit costs related to workforce reductions.

As noted in Note (T), “Segment Reporting,” our primary measure of segment financial performance excludes, among other items, restructuring and other charges, net; however, the applicable portion of the restructuring and other charges, net that relates to each segment was as follows:

(1)		Revenue earning equipment, net includes vehicles acquired under capital leases of $19.1 million, less accumulated amortization of $6.7 million, at September 30, 2010, and $19.9 million, less accumulated amortization of $6.9 million, at December 31, 2009. Amortization expense attributed to vehicles acquired under capital leases is combined with depreciation expense.

At the end of 2009, we completed our annual review of residual values and useful lives of revenue earning equipment. Based on the results of our analysis, we adjusted the residual values of certain classes of revenue earning equipment effective January 1, 2010. The change in estimated residual values decreased pre-tax earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 by approximately $3.5 million and $10.5 million, respectively. In addition, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized $1.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, of accelerated depreciation for select vehicles that are expected to be held for sale through 2011. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized $4.0 million and $6.3 million, respectively, of accelerated depreciation for select vehicles that were expected to be held for sale through 2010.

(K) INCOME TAXES

Uncertain Tax Positions

We are subject to tax audits in numerous jurisdictions in the U.S. and foreign countries. Tax audits by their very nature are often complex and can require several years to complete. In the normal course of business, we are subject to challenges from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other tax authorities regarding amounts of taxes due. These challenges may alter the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions, or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. As part of our calculation of the provision for income taxes on earnings, we recognize the tax benefit from uncertain tax positions that are at least more likely than not of being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Such calculations require management to make estimates and judgments with respect to the ultimate outcome of a tax audit. Actual results could vary materially from these estimates.

The following is a summary of tax years that are no longer subject to examination:

Federal — audits of our U.S. federal income tax returns are closed through fiscal year 2006. In the first quarter of 2009, the IRS completed their examination of our U.S. income tax returns for 2004 through 2006.

State — for the majority of states, we are no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2006.

Foreign — we are no longer subject to foreign tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2001 in Brazil, 2002 in Canada, 2003 in Mexico and 2007 in the U.K., which are our major foreign tax jurisdictions. In Brazil, we were assessed $16.1 million, including penalties and interest, related to the tax due on the sale of our outbound auto carriage business in 2001. We believe it is more likely than not that our tax position will ultimately be sustained and no amounts have been reserved for this matter.

At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits (excluding the federal benefit received from state positions) was $71.6 million and $69.5 million, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits related to federal, state and foreign tax positions may decrease by $2.2 million by September 30, 2011, if audits are completed or tax years close.

Like-Kind Exchange Program

We have a like-kind exchange program for certain of our revenue earning equipment operating in the U.S. Pursuant to the program, we dispose of vehicles and acquire replacement vehicles in a form whereby tax gains on disposal of eligible vehicles are deferred. To qualify for like-kind exchange treatment, we exchange, through a qualified intermediary, eligible vehicles being disposed of with vehicles being acquired allowing us to generally carryover the tax basis of the vehicles sold (“like-kind exchanges”). The program results in a material deferral of federal and state income taxes. As part of the program, the proceeds from the sale of eligible vehicles are restricted for the acquisition of replacement vehicles and other specified applications. Due to the structure utilized to facilitate the like-kind exchanges, the qualified intermediary that holds the proceeds from the sales of eligible vehicles and the entity that holds the vehicles to be acquired under the program are required to be consolidated in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, these consolidated entities had total assets, primarily revenue earning equipment, and total liabilities, primarily accounts payable, of $51.7 million and $28.5 million, respectively.

Tax Law Changes

On September 27, 2010, the U.S. enacted the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010. The Act extended bonus depreciation for one year to apply to qualified property placed in service during 2010. The impact of the change will result in a lower federal cash tax payment for 2010.

On July 27, 2010 the United Kingdom (U.K.) enacted legislation which lowered the statutory rate from 28% to 27% effective April 1, 2011. The impact of this change resulted in a favorable non-cash adjustment to deferred taxes and an increase in net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted common share.

On March 23, 2010, the U.S. enacted the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and on March 30, 2010, the U.S. enacted the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “Act”). The Act will reduce certain tax benefits available to employers for providing prescription coverage to retirees among other tax law changes. We do not provide prescription coverage for our retirees; therefore the Act had no impact on our deferred income taxes or net earnings.

On February 19, 2009, the State of Wisconsin enacted changes to its tax system, which included mandatory unitary combined reporting. The impact of this change resulted in a favorable non-cash adjustment to deferred income taxes and increased net earnings in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 by $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted common share.

Effective Tax Rate

Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2010 was 36.0% compared to 35.7% in the same period of the prior year. The increase in the effective income tax rate from continuing operations was due to the favorable settlement of a foreign tax audit in 2009 partially offset by 2010 lower foreign operating losses, income tax rate reductions in the U.K and lower contingent tax accruals in 2010. Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was 39.2% compared 40.7% in the prior year. The decrease in the effective income tax rate from continuing operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was mainly due to lower non-deductible expenses partially offset by higher contingent tax accruals.

(2)		The notional amount of the executed interest rate swap designated as a fair value hedge was $250 million at both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

We can borrow up to $875 million under a global revolving credit facility with a syndicate of thirteen lending institutions led by Bank of America N.A., Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd., Royal Bank of Scotland Plc and Wells Fargo N.A. The global credit facility matures in April 2012 and is used primarily to finance working capital and provide support for the issuance of unsecured commercial paper in the U.S. and Canada. This facility 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 September 30, 2010). At our option, the interest rate on borrowings under the credit facility is based on LIBOR, prime, federal funds or local equivalent rates. The agreement provides for annual facility fees, which range from 22.5 basis points to 62.5 basis points, and are based on Ryder’s long-term credit ratings. The current annual facility fee is 37.5 basis points, which applies to the total facility size of $875 million. 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 tangible net worth, of less than or equal to 300%. Tangible net worth, as defined in the credit facility, includes 50% of our deferred federal income tax liability and excludes the book value of our intangibles. The ratio at September 30, 2010 was 157%. At September 30, 2010, $730.2 million was available under the credit facility, net of the support for commercial paper borrowings.

Our global revolving credit facility permits us to refinance short-term commercial paper obligations on a long-term basis. Settlement of short-term commercial paper obligations not expected to require the use of working capital are classified as long-term as we have both the intent and ability to refinance on a long-term basis. At September 30, 2010, we classified $82.0 million of commercial paper as short-term debt because we expect to reduce the balance within one year. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we classified $62.0 million and $191.9 million, respectively, of short-term commercial paper as long-term debt.

In September 2010, we issued $300 million of unsecured medium-term notes maturing in March 2016. If the notes are downgraded following, and as a result of, a change of control, the note holder can require us to repurchase all or a portion of the notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The medium-term notes were issued to take advantage of historically low interest rates and fund capital expenditures and debt maturities.

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 receivables conduit or committed purchasers. 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 $175 million. If no event occurs which causes early termination, the 364-day program will expire on October 29, 2010. We are in the process of renewing the program and do not anticipate any material changes to the program’s terms and conditions. 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. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, no amounts were outstanding under the program. Sales of receivables under this program will be accounted for as secured borrowings based on our continuing involvement in the transferred assets.

On February 25, 2010, we filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The registration is for an indeterminate number of securities and is effective for three years. Under this universal shelf registration statement, we have the capacity to offer and sell from time to time various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock and debt securities, subject to market demand and ratings status.

At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had letters of credit and surety bonds outstanding totaling $258.1 million and $262.7 million, respectively, which primarily guarantee the payment of insurance claims.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for these items, as well as the level of inputs used to measure fair value:

Investments held in Rabbi Trusts — The investments primarily include mutual funds that invest in equity and fixed income securities. Shares of mutual funds were valued based on quoted market prices, which represents the net asset value of the shares and were therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Interest rate swap — The derivative is a pay-variable, receive-fixed interest rate swap based on the LIBOR rate and is designated as a fair value hedge. Fair value was based on a model-driven income approach using the LIBOR rate at each interest payment date,

(unaudited)

which was observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the swap. Therefore, our interest rate swap was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following tables present our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the levels of inputs used to measure fair value:

(1)		Represents the portion of all revenue earning equipment held for sale that is recorded at fair value, less costs to sell.

(2)		Total losses represent fair value adjustments for all vehicles held for sale throughout the period for which fair value was less than carrying value.

Revenue earning equipment held for sale is stated at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Losses to reflect changes in fair value are presented within “Depreciation expense” in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. For revenue earning equipment held for sale, we stratify our fleet by vehicle type (tractors, trucks, trailers), weight class, age and other relevant characteristics and create classes of similar assets for analysis purposes. 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. Therefore, our revenue earning equipment held for sale was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair value of total debt at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was approximately $2.71 billion and $2.60 billion, respectively. For publicly-traded debt, estimates of fair value were based on market prices. For other debt, fair value was estimated based on rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.

(N) DERIVATIVES

In February 2008, we issued $250 million of unsecured medium-term notes maturing in March 2013. Concurrently, we entered into an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $250 million maturing in March 2013. The swap was designated as a fair value hedge whereby we receive fixed interest rate payments in exchange for making variable interest rate payments. The differential to be paid or received is accrued and recognized as interest expense. At September 30, 2010, the interest rate swap agreement effectively changed $250 million of fixed-rate debt with an interest rate of 6.00% to LIBOR-based floating-rate debt at a rate of 2.63%. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap are offset by changes in the fair value of the debt instrument. Accordingly, there is no ineffectiveness related to the interest rate swap. Our swap agreement contains provisions that would require us to post collateral in the event that the swap is in a liability position exceeding certain thresholds based on our credit ratings.

(O) SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

In February 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a $100 million discretionary share repurchase program over a period not to exceed two years. Share repurchases of common stock under this plan may be made periodically in open-market transactions and are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors. Management has established a prearranged written plan for the Company under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as part of the February 2010 program, which allows for share repurchases during Ryder’s quarterly blackout periods as set forth in the plan. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, we repurchased and retired 720,000 shares under this program at an aggregate cost of $29.6 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we repurchased and retired 1,855,000 shares under this program at an aggregate cost of $75.1 million.

In December 2009, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program intended to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under our various employee stock, stock option and stock purchase plans. Under the December 2009 program, management is authorized to repurchase shares of common stock in an amount not to exceed the number of shares issued to employees under the Company’s various employee stock, stock option and stock purchase plans from December 1, 2009 through December 15, 2011. The December 2009 program limits aggregate share repurchases to no more than 2 million shares of Ryder common stock. 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 a prearranged written plan for the Company under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as part of the December 2009 program, which allows for share repurchases during Ryder’s quarterly blackout periods as set forth in the plan. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, we repurchased and retired 109,064 shares under this program at an aggregate cost of $4.6 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we repurchased and retired 416,761 shares under this program at an aggregate cost of $16.8 million.

(P) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income presents a measure of all changes in shareholders’ equity except for changes resulting from transactions with shareholders in their capacity as shareholders. Our total comprehensive income presently consists of net earnings, currency translation adjustments associated with foreign operations that use the local currency as their functional currency, adjustments for derivative instruments accounted for as cash flow hedges and various pension and other postretirement benefits related items.

In 2010, we expect to contribute approximately $17 million to our pension plans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we contributed $10.9 million to our pension plans.

Pension Curtailments

In July 2009, our Board of Directors approved an amendment to freeze our U.K. retirement plan for all participants effective March 31, 2010. In July 2008, our Board of Directors approved an amendment to freeze the defined benefit portion of our Canadian retirement plan effective January 1, 2010 for current participants who did not meet certain grandfathering criteria.

Savings Plans

Employees who do not actively participate in our pension plans are eligible to participate in savings plans. The savings plans provide for (i) company contributions even if employees do not make contributions, (ii) a company match of employee contributions of eligible pay, and (iii) in certain cases, a discretionary company match based on our performance. During the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized total savings plan costs of $6.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized total savings plan costs of $20.0 million and $16.6 million, respectively.

(R) OTHER ITEMS IMPACTING COMPARABILITY

Our primary measure of segment performance excludes certain items that we believe are not representative of the ongoing operations of the segment. We believe that excluding these items from our segment measure of performance allows for better comparison of results.

During the first quarter of 2009, we recognized a pre-tax impairment charge of $4.1 million to write-down a SCS Singapore facility to its estimated fair value. This charge was presented within “Depreciation expense” in our Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings.

(S) SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

Supplemental cash flow information was as follows:

Changes in accounts payable related to purchases of revenue earning equipment	$	33,808		$	(40,331	)
Revenue earning equipment acquired under capital leases	$	106		$	1,949

(T) SEGMENT REPORTING

Our operating segments are aggregated into reportable business segments based upon similar economic characteristics, products, services, customers and delivery methods. We operate in three reportable business segments: (1) FMS, which provides full service leasing, contract maintenance, contract-related maintenance and commercial rental of trucks, tractors and trailers to customers, principally in the U.S., Canada and the U.K.; (2) SCS, which provides comprehensive supply chain consulting including distribution and transportation services in North America and Asia; and (3) Dedicated Contract Carriage (DCC), which provides vehicles and drivers as part of a dedicated transportation solution in the U.S.

Our primary measurement of segment financial performance, defined as “Net Before Taxes” (NBT), includes an allocation of Central Support Services (CSS) and excludes restructuring and other charges, net described in Note (G), “Restructuring and Other Charges,” and excludes the items discussed in Note (R), “Other Items Impacting Comparability.” CSS represents those costs incurred to support all business segments, including human resources, finance, corporate services, public affairs, information technology, health and safety, legal and corporate communications. The objective of the NBT measurement is to provide clarity on the profitability of each business segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each business segment and each operating segment within each business segment accountable for their allocated share of CSS costs. Certain costs are considered to be overhead not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in CSS. Included among the unallocated overhead remaining within CSS are the costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation.

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

(U) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2010, the FASB issued expanded disclosure requirements surrounding the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. Certain disclosures regarding the credit quality of our financing receivables as of the end of a period are required in our December 31, 2010 10-K. Disclosures about the changes in the allowance for credit losses that occur during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual periods after January 1, 2011.

In September 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance which amends the criteria for allocating a contract’s consideration to individual services or products in multiple arrangements. The guidance requires that the best estimate of selling price be used when vendor specific objective or third-party evidence for deliverables cannot be determined. This guidance is effective for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified on or after January 1, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this accounting guidance will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS —
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009

OVERVIEW

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and notes thereto included under Item 1. 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 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Ryder System, Inc. (Ryder) is a global leader in transportation and supply chain management solutions. Our business is divided into three business segments: Fleet Management Solutions (FMS), which provides full service leasing, contract maintenance, contract-related maintenance and commercial rental of trucks, tractors and trailers to customers principally in the U.S., Canada and the U.K.; Supply Chain Solutions (SCS), which provides comprehensive supply chain consulting including distribution and transportation services in North America and Asia; and Dedicated Contract Carriage (DCC), which provides vehicles and drivers as part of a dedicated transportation solution in the U.S. 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 automotive, electronics, transportation, grocery, lumber and wood products, food service, and home furnishing.

ACQUISITIONS

On February 2, 2009, we acquired the assets of Edart Leasing LLC (“Edart”), which included Edart’s fleet of approximately 1,600 vehicles and more than 340 contractual customers from Edart’s five locations in Connecticut for a purchase price of $85.2 million. The combined network operates under the Ryder name, complementing our FMS business segment market coverage in the Northeast. We also acquired approximately 525 vehicles for remarketing, the majority of which have been sold.

Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes (NBT) increased 40% in the third quarter of 2010 to $62.0 million reflecting the impact of stronger results in our FMS business segment primarily due to improved global commercial rental performance and used vehicle sales results. This increase was partially offset by lower full service lease performance reflecting higher maintenance costs on a relatively older fleet and the cumulative effect of customer fleet downsizing. NBT in the third quarter of 2009 included restructuring charges and other items of $3.9 million. NBT increased 22% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $136.7 million. NBT in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was impacted by restructuring and SCS Singapore impairment charges totaling $10.4 million. Excluding these charges, NBT increased 12% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 primarily due to improved commercial rental performance, used vehicle sales results and higher SCS results partially offset by lower full service lease performance. See Note (G), “Restructuring and Other Charges” and Note (R), “Other Items Impacting Comparability,” for information regarding items excluded from 2009 results.

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

Net earnings increased 62% in the third quarter of 2010 to $38.8 million or $0.74 per diluted common share. Net earnings increased 51% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $81.0 million or $1.53 per diluted common share. Net earnings in the third quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were negatively impacted by losses from discontinued operations from SCS South America and Europe of $4.5 million and $12.8 million, respectively.

EPS growth in the third quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2010 exceeded the net earnings growth reflecting the impact of share repurchase programs. See “Operating Results by Business Segment” for a further discussion of operating results.

(1)		We use operating revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the operating performance of our businesses and as a measure of sales activity. FMS fuel services revenue net of related intersegment billings, which is directly impacted by fluctuations in market fuel prices, is excluded from the operating revenue computation as fuel is largely a pass-through to our customers for which we realize minimal changes in 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 market fuel costs. Subcontracted transportation is deducted from total revenue to arrive at operating revenue as subcontracted transportation is typically a pass-through to our customers. We realize minimal changes in profitability as a result of fluctuations in subcontracted transportation. Operating revenue is also a primary internal operating metric used to measure segment performance. Refer to the section titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of total revenue to operating revenue.

Total revenue increased 5% in the third quarter of 2010 to $1.32 billion and increased 5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $3.82 billion. Total revenue growth in the third quarter was driven by higher operating revenue. Total revenue growth in the first nine months of 2010 was driven by higher fuel services revenue reflecting higher fuel cost pass-throughs. Operating revenue increased 4% in the third quarter of 2010 to $1.07 billion primarily due to higher commercial rental revenue and SCS volumes and was partially offset by lower full service lease revenue. Operating revenue increased 2% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $3.10 billion primarily due to higher commercial rental revenue and favorable movements in foreign exchange rates partially offset by lower full service lease revenue. Total revenue and operating revenue in the third quarter of 2010 included a favorable foreign exchange impact of 0.3%, and 0.2%, respectively, primarily due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar. Both total revenue and operating revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 included a favorable foreign exchange impact of 1.1% primarily due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar.

Operating expense and operating expense as a percentage of revenue increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 primarily as a result of higher fuel cost pass-throughs and higher maintenance costs. The increase in fuel costs in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 was driven by an increase in fuel prices.

We retain a portion of the accident risk under vehicle liability and workers’ compensation insurance programs. The costs associated with these insurance programs are reflected within Operating expense. Our self-insurance accruals are based on actuarially estimated, undiscounted cost of claims, which includes claims incurred but not reported. While we believe that our estimation processes are well designed, every estimation process is inherently subject to limitations. Fluctuations in the frequency or severity of accidents make it difficult to precisely predict the ultimate cost of claims. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, we recorded a charge of $0.4 million from developments in estimated prior years’self-insured loss reserves. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recorded a charge of $2.4 million and a benefit of $2.9 million, respectively, from developments in estimated prior years’ self-insured loss reserves.

Salaries and employee-related costs increased 1% in the third quarter of 2010 to $314.7 million and increased 1% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $929.7 million primarily due to higher incentive-based compensation costs and higher driver costs. The increases in salaries and employee-related costs were partially offset by lower retirement plans expense of $5.1 million in the third quarter of 2010 and $15.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 reflecting higher than expected return on pension assets in 2009 and the favorable impact from voluntary pension contributions made in the fourth quarter of 2009. Salaries and employee-related costs in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were also impacted by unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Average headcount from continuing operations decreased 3% and 6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

Subcontracted transportation	$67,049	52,539	$191,972	138,547	28%	39%
Percentage of revenue	5%	4%	5%	4%

Subcontracted transportation expense represents freight management costs on logistics contracts for which we purchase transportation from third parties. Subcontracted transportation expense is directly impacted by whether we are acting as an agent or principal in our transportation management contracts. To the extent that we are acting as a principal, revenue is reported on a gross basis and carriage costs to third parties are recorded as subcontracted transportation expense. To the extent we are acting as an agent, revenue is reported net of carriage costs to third parties. The impact to net earnings is the same whether we are acting as an agent or principal in the arrangement. Subcontracted transportation expense increased 28% in the third quarter of 2010 to $67.0 million and 39% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $192.0 million from increased freight volumes particularly in the automotive industry.

Depreciation expense relates primarily to FMS revenue earning equipment. Revenue earning equipment held for sale is recorded at the lower of fair value less costs to sell or carrying value. Losses to reflect change in fair value are reflected within Depreciation expense. Depreciation expense decreased 5% in the third quarter of 2010 to $209.9 million and 6% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $627.7 million because of a smaller fleet as well as lower write-downs in the carrying value of vehicles held for sale of $6.9 million and $20.0 million, respectively. Depreciation expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 also included a SCS Singapore facility impairment charge of $4.1 million. The decreases in depreciation expense in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010

were partially offset by higher average vehicle investments, as well as changes in both residual values of certain classes of our revenue earning equipment effective January 1, 2010 and accelerated depreciation for select vehicles that are expected to be sold by the end of 2011. Refer to Note (H), “Revenue Earning Equipment,” in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further discussion.

Gains on vehicle sales, net increased in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $6.9 million and $18.0 million, respectively, due to higher pricing, primarily in our used truck class.

Equipment rental consists primarily of rent expense for FMS revenue earning equipment under lease. Equipment rental remained unchanged in the third quarter of 2010 at $16.5 million. Equipment rental increased 2% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $49.5 million as higher rental costs associated with investments in material handling equipment to support our SCS operations were partially offset by a lower number of leased vehicles.

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

Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2010 was 36.0% compared to 35.7% in the same period of the prior year. The increase in the effective income tax rate from continuing operations was due to the favorable settlement of a foreign tax audit in 2009 partially offset by 2010 lower foreign operating losses, income tax rate reductions in the U.K and lower contingent tax accruals in 2010. Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was 39.2% compared 40.7% in the prior year. The decrease in the effective income tax rate from continuing operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was mainly due to lower non-deductible expenses partially offset by higher contingent tax accruals.

As part of management’s evaluation of segment operating performance, we define the primary measurement of our segment financial performance as “Net Before Taxes” (NBT) from continuing operations, which includes an allocation of Central Support Services (CSS), excludes restructuring and other charges, net, described in Note (G), “Restructuring and Other Charges,” and excludes the items discussed in Note (R), “Other Items Impacting Comparability” in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. CSS represents those costs incurred to support all business segments, including human resources, finance, corporate services and public affairs, information technology, health and safety, legal and corporate communications. The objective of the NBT measurement is to provide clarity on the profitability of each business segment and, ultimately, to hold leadership of each business segment and each operating segment within 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 considered to be overhead not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated in CSS. Included within the unallocated overhead remaining within CSS are the costs for investor relations, public affairs and certain executive compensation.

The following table provides a reconciliation of items excluded from our segment NBT measure to their classification within our Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings:

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

(1)		We use operating revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the operating performance of our FMS business segment and as a measure of sales activity. Fuel services revenue, which is directly impacted by fluctuations in market fuel prices, is excluded from our operating revenue computation as fuel is largely a pass-through to customers for which we realize minimal changes in 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 market fuel costs.

Total revenue increased 4% in the third quarter of 2010 to $948.9 million primarily due to higher operating revenue and fuel services revenue. Total revenue increased 4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $2.76 billion primarily due to higher fuel services revenue. The increase in fuel services revenue was due to higher fuel cost pass-throughs. Operating revenue (revenue excluding fuel) increased 3% in the third quarter of 2010 to $733.9 million primarily due to higher commercial rental revenue partially offset by lower full service lease revenue. Operating revenue remained flat in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as increased commercial rental revenue was offset by lower contractual revenue. Both total revenue and operating revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 included a favorable foreign exchange impact of 1.1%.

Full service lease revenue decreased 2% in the third quarter of 2010 to $487.5 million and 3% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $1.45 billion. Contract maintenance revenue decreased 5% in the third quarter of 2010 to $40.1 million and 5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $119.8 million. The decrease in contractual revenue reflects the cumulative effect of customer fleet downsizing resulting from the long-term economic downturn. We expect similar declines in contractual revenue comparisons through the end of the year based on recent sales activity. Commercial rental revenue increased 32% in the third quarter of 2010 to $147.9 million and 19% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 of 2010 to $379.5 million reflecting improved global market demand and improved pricing. In light of current economic conditions, we expect favorable commercial rental revenue comparisons to continue through the end of the year driven by higher demand, improved utilization and higher pricing.

FMS NBT increased 48% in the third quarter of 2010 to $54.8 million and increased 13% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $122.7 million primarily due to improved global commercial rental performance, better used vehicle results and lower retirement plans expense. Commercial rental performance improved as a result of increased market demand and higher pricing. Used vehicle sales results were positively impacted by higher pricing and a lower average quarterly inventory level. Both commercial rental and used vehicle sales results benefited from a lower supply of vehicles in the overall marketplace. Retirement plans cost decreased $5.0 million in the third quarter of 2010 and decreased $14.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 because of improved performance in the overall stock market in 2009. The increase in NBT in both periods was partially offset by lower full service lease performance which was adversely impacted by increased maintenance costs on a relatively older fleet and the cumulative impact of customer fleet downsizing. The increase in NBT in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was also partially offset by higher compensation costs and increased depreciation expense of $9.2 million resulting from residual value changes and accelerated depreciation.

Total		7,900		10,500		11,700		(25	)%		(32	)%

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. For 2010, NYE units increased reflecting new lease sales and, to a lesser extent, the refresh and modest growth of the rental fleet. NLE units represent vehicles held for sale and vehicles for which no revenue has been earned in the previous 30 days. For 2010, NLE units decreased because of lower used vehicle inventory levels and higher rental utilization. We expect NLE levels to increase through the end of this year as we outservice rental units.

(1)		We use operating revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the operating performance of the SCS business segment and as a measure of sales activity. Subcontracted transportation is deducted from total revenue to arrive at operating revenue as subcontracted transportation is typically a pass-through to customers. We realize minimal changes in profitability as a result of fluctuations in subcontracted transportation. Operating revenue is also a primary internal operating metric and is used to measure segment performance.

(2)		Fuel costs are largely a pass-through to customers and therefore have a direct impact on revenue.

Total revenue increased 10% in the third quarter of 2010 to $322.9 million and 11% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $927.2 million primarily due to higher subcontracted transportation resulting from higher freight volumes and higher operating revenue. Operating revenue increased 5% in the third quarter of 2010 to $258.5 million and 5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $746.7 million. The increase in operating revenue in the third quarter of 2010 was primarily due to improved automotive and high-tech volumes, favorable foreign exchange rate movements partially offset by prior year contract rationalizations. In the third quarter of 2010, SCS total revenue and operating revenue included a favorable foreign currency exchange impact of 1.2% and 1.0%, respectively. The increase

30

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

in operating revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to higher automotive volumes and favorable foreign exchange movements. In the nine months ended September 30, 2010, SCS total revenue and operating revenue included a favorable foreign exchange impact of 2.6% and 2.4%, respectively. We expect favorable revenue comparisons to continue through the end of the year.

SCS NBT decreased 6% in the third quarter of 2010 to $15.2 million primarily due to higher self-insurance costs partially offset by improved operating performance, particularly in high-tech accounts. SCS NBT increased 45% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $34.8 million primarily due to improved automotive production volumes, better operating performance and the impact of prior year contract rationalizations. These items were partially offset by higher compensation costs.

(2)		Fuel costs are largely a pass-through to customers and therefore have a direct impact on revenue.

Total revenue and operating revenue increased in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010 primarily due to higher fuel cost pass-throughs. We expect similar revenue comparisons to continue through the end of the year.

DCC NBT decreased 12% in the third quarter of 2010 to $8.6 million primarily due to lower operating performance including increased driver costs and investments associated with new technology initiatives. DCC NBT decreased 20% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 primarily due to higher self-insurance costs from unfavorable development related to prior year claims, investments associated with new technology initiatives and higher compensation costs.

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash		6			571

Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	43,763			4,629

A detail of the individual items contributing to the cash flow changes is included in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows.

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased to $804.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared with $768.7 million in 2009 because of changes in working capital partially offset by lower cash-based earnings. Cash used in financing activities from continuing operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased to $96.0 million compared with $386.9 million in 2009 due to higher borrowing needs to fund capital spending. Cash used in investing activities from continuing operations increased to $664.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared with $377.8 million in 2009 due to higher vehicle spending in 2010 partially offset by lower acquisition related payments.

We refer to the sum of operating cash flows, proceeds from the sales of revenue earning equipment and operating property and equipment, collections on direct finance leases and other investing cash inflows from continuing operations as “total cash generated.” We refer to the net amount of cash generated from operating and investing activities (excluding changes in restricted cash and acquisitions) from continuing operations as “free cash flow.” Although total cash generated and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures, we consider them to be important measures of comparative operating performance. We also believe total cash generated to be an important measure of total cash inflows generated from our ongoing business activities. 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.

The following table shows the sources of our free cash flow computation:


	Nine months ended September 30,

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations	$	804,162			768,736

Purchases of property and revenue earning equipment		(860,902	)		(508,586	)

Free cash flow	$	152,984			462,259

Free cash flow decreased to $153.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared with $462.3 million in 2009 primarily due to higher vehicle spending. We anticipate our full year free cash flow to be in the range of $225-$275 million.

The following table provides a summary of capital expenditures:

(1)		Capital expenditures exclude revenue earning equipment acquired under capital leases of $0.1 million and $1.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Capital expenditures (accrual basis) increased 91% in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $894.7 million principally as a result of increased commercial rental spending to refresh and modestly grow the rental fleet. We anticipate full-year 2010 accrual basis capital expenditures to be consistent with our previous forecast of $1.1 billion.

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 particular Ryder 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 revolving credit facility described below.

Our debt ratings at September 30, 2010 were as follows:


	Short-term	Long-term	Outlook
Moody’s Investors Service	P2	Baa1	Stable (affirmed February 2010)
Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services	A2	BBB+	Stable (raised August 2010)
Fitch Ratings	F2	A -	Stable (affirmed March 2010)

We believe that our operating cash flows, together with our access to commercial paper markets 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 commercial paper markets 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 commercial paper and other sources of unsecured borrowings, we would meet our liquidity needs by drawing upon contractually committed lending agreements as described below and/or by seeking other funding sources.

We can borrow up to $875 million under a global revolving credit facility with a syndicate of thirteen lending institutions led by Bank of America N.A., Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd., Royal Bank of Scotland Plc and Wells Fargo N.A. The global credit facility matures in April 2012 and is used primarily to finance working capital and provide support for the issuance of unsecured commercial paper in the U.S. and Canada. This facility 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 September 30, 2010). At our option, the interest rate on borrowings under the credit facility is based on LIBOR, prime, federal funds or local equivalent rates. The agreement provides for annual facility fees, which range from 22.5 basis points to 62.5 basis points, and are based on Ryder’s long-term credit ratings. The

33

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

credit facility’s current annual facility fee is 37.5 basis points, which applies to the total facility size of $875 million. 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 tangible net worth, of less than or equal to 300%. Tangible net worth, as defined in the credit facility, includes 50% of our deferred federal income tax liability and excludes the book value of our intangible assets. The ratio at September 30, 2010 was 157%. At September 30, 2010, $730.2 million was available under the credit facility, net of the support for commercial paper borrowings.

Our global revolving credit facility permits us to refinance short-term commercial paper obligations on a long-term basis. Settlement of short-term commercial paper obligations not expected to require the use of working capital are classified as long-term as we have both the intent and ability to refinance on a long-term basis. At September 30, 2010, we classified $82 million of commercial paper as short-term debt because we expect to reduce the balance within one year. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we classified $62.0 million and $191.9 million, respectively, of short-term commercial paper as long-term debt.

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 receivables conduit or committed purchasers. 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 amounts that may be received under the program are limited to $175 million. If no event occurs which causes early termination, the 364-day program will expire on October 29, 2010. We are in the process of renewing the program and do not anticipate any material changes to the program’s terms and conditions. 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. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, no amounts were outstanding under the program.

Historically, we have established asset-backed securitization programs whereby we have sold beneficial interests in certain long-term vehicle leases and related vehicle residuals to a bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity that in turn transfers the beneficial interest to a special purpose securitization trust in exchange for cash. The securitization trust funds the cash requirement with the issuance of asset-backed securities, secured or otherwise collateralized by the beneficial interest in the long-term vehicle leases and the residual value of the vehicles. The securitization provides us with further liquidity and access to additional capital markets based on market conditions. On June 18, 2008, Ryder Funding II LP, a special purpose bankruptcy-remote subsidiary wholly-owned by Ryder, filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for the registration of $600 million in asset-backed notes. The registration statement became effective on November 6, 2008 and remains effective until November 6, 2011.

On February 25, 2010, Ryder filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC. The registration is for an indeterminate number of securities and is effective for three years. Under this universal shelf registration statement, we have the capacity to offer and sell from time to time various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock and debt securities, subject to market demand and ratings status.

In September 2010, we issued $300 million of unsecured medium-term notes maturing in March 2016. If the notes are downgraded following, and as a result of, a change of control, the note holder can require us to repurchase all or a portion of the notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The medium-term notes were issued to take advantage of historically low interest rates and fund capital expenditures and debt maturities.

At September 30, 2010, we had the following amounts available to fund operations under the aforementioned facilities:


	(In millions)
Global revolving credit facility	$	730
Trade receivables program	$	175

Total changes in debt		32,094			(336,450	)


Debt balance at September 30	$	2,529,785			2,526,349

In accordance with our funding philosophy, we attempt to balance 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 match and generally target a mix of 25% to 45% variable-rate debt as a percentage of total debt outstanding. The variable-rate portion of our total obligations (including notional value of swap agreements) was 22% and 26% at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Ryder’s leverage ratios and a reconciliation of on-balance sheet debt to total obligations were as follows:


	September 30,		% to		December 31,		% to
	2010		Equity		2009		Equity
	(Dollars in thousands)

On-balance sheet debt	$	2,529,785		180%		2,497,691		175%
Off-balance sheet debt—PV of minimum lease payments and guaranteed residual values under operating leases for vehicles⁽¹⁾		114,066				118,828

Total obligations	$	2,643,851		188%		2,616,519		183%


(1)		Present value (PV) does not reflect payments Ryder would be required to make if we terminated the related leases prior to the scheduled expiration dates.

On-balance sheet debt to equity consists of balance sheet debt divided by total equity. Total obligations to equity represents balance sheet debt plus the present value of minimum lease payments and guaranteed residual values under operating leases for vehicles, discounted based on our incremental borrowing rate at lease inception, all divided by total equity. Although total obligations is a non-GAAP financial measure, we believe that total obligations is useful as it provides a more complete analysis of our existing financial obligations and helps better assess our overall leverage position. Our leverage ratios at September 30, 2010 increased compared with our ratios at year end due to share repurchases.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We periodically enter into sale-leaseback transactions in order to lower the total cost of funding our operations, to diversify our funding among different classes of investors and to diversify our funding among different types of funding instruments. These sale-leaseback transactions are often executed with third-party financial institutions. In general, these sale-leaseback transactions result in a reduction in revenue earning equipment and debt on the balance sheet, as proceeds from the sale of revenue earning equipment are primarily used to repay debt. Accordingly, sale-leaseback transactions will result in reduced depreciation and interest expense and

35

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

increased equipment rental expense. These leases contain limited guarantees by us of the residual values of the leased vehicles (residual value guarantees) that are conditioned upon disposal of the leased vehicles prior to the end of their lease term. The amount of future payments for residual value guarantees will depend on the market for used vehicles and the condition of the vehicles at time of disposal. We did not enter into any sale-leaseback transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 or 2009.

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 2010, we expect to contribute approximately $17 million to our pension plans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we contributed $10.9 million to our pension plans. Changes in interest rates and the market value of the securities held by the plans during 2010 could materially change, positively or negatively, the funded status of the plans and affect the level of pension expense and required contributions in 2011 and beyond. See Note (Q), “Employee Benefit Plans,” in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information.

Share Repurchases and Cash Dividends

See Note (O), “Share Repurchase Programs,” in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for a discussion of share repurchases.

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 of this information are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined by SEC rules. Specifically, we refer to operating revenue, salaries and employee-related costs as a percentage of operating revenue, FMS operating revenue, FMS NBT as a % of operating revenue, SCS operating revenue, SCS NBT as a % of operating revenue, DCC operating revenue, DCC NBT as a % of operating revenue, total cash generated, free cash flow, total obligations and total obligations to equity. As required by SEC rules, we provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP measure and an explanation why management believes that presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following table provides a numerical reconciliation of total revenue to operating revenue which was not provided within the MD&A discussion:

•		our expectations regarding the impact of recently adopted accounting pronouncements;

•		our ability to access unsecured debt in the capital markets;

•		our expectations regarding the future use and availability of funding sources;

•		our anticipated use of our share repurchase programs; and

•		the appropriateness of our long-term target leverage range and our expectations regarding meeting that range.

These statements, as well as other forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, are based on our current plans and expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. We caution readers that certain important factors could cause actual results and events to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. These risk factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

•

Market Conditions:

	o		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

	o		Unfavorable financial market conditions that would limit our ability to execute share repurchases

	o		Significant decrease in freight demand which would more severely impact both our transactions and variable-based contractual business

	o		Changes in our customers’ operations, financial condition or business environment that may limit their need for, or ability to purchase, our services

	o		Changes in market conditions affecting the commercial rental market or the sale of used vehicles

	o		Volatility in automotive volumes

	o		Less than anticipated growth rates in the markets in which we operate

	o		Changes in current financial, tax or regulatory requirements that could negatively impact the leasing market

	o		Changes in operating conditions in global markets that may impact our ability to conduct our business operations

•

Competition:

o

Competition from other service providers, some of which have greater capital resources or lower capital costs

37

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

	o		Continued consolidation in the markets in which we operate which may create large competitors with greater financial resources

	o		Our inability to maintain current pricing levels due to economic conditions, demand for services, customer acceptance or competition

•

Profitability:

	o		Our inability to obtain adequate profit margins for our services

	o		Lower than expected customer volumes or retention levels

	o		Lower full service lease sales activity

	o		Loss of key customers in our SCS and DCC business segments

	o		Our inability to adapt our product offerings to meet changing consumer preferences on a cost-effective basis

	o		The inability of our business segments to create operating efficiencies

	o		The inability of our legacy information technology systems to provide timely access to data

	o		Sudden changes in fuel prices and fuel shortages

	o		Higher prices for vehicles, diesel engines and fuel as a result of exhaust emissions standards

	o		Our inability to successfully implement our asset management initiatives

	o		Our key assumptions and pricing structure of our SCS contracts prove to be invalid

	o		Increased unionizing, labor strikes, work stoppages and driver shortages

	o		Our inability to manage our cost structure

•

Financing Concerns:

	o		Higher borrowing costs and possible decreases in available funding sources caused by an adverse change in our debt ratings

	o		Unanticipated interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations

	o		Negative funding status of our pension plans caused by lower than expected returns on invested assets and unanticipated changes in interest rates

	o		Instability in U.S. and worldwide credit markets, resulting in higher borrowing costs and/or reduced access to credit

•

Accounting Matters:

	o		Impact of unusual items resulting from ongoing evaluations of business strategies, asset valuations, acquisitions, divestitures and our organizational structure

	o		Reductions in residual values or useful lives of revenue earning equipment

	o		Increases in compensation levels, retirement rate and mortality resulting in higher pension expense; regulatory changes affecting pension estimates, accruals and expenses

	o		Increases in healthcare costs resulting in higher insurance costs

	o		Changes in accounting rules, assumptions and accruals

	o		Impact of actual insurance claim and settlement activity compared to historical loss development factors used to project future development

•

Other risks detailed from time to time in our SEC filings

The risks included here are not exhaustive. 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 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the third quarter of 2010, 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 third quarter of 2010, 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

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, there were no 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.

(1)		During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we purchased an aggregate of 1,200 shares of our common stock in employee-related transactions. Employee-related transactions may include: (i) shares of common stock delivered as payment for the exercise price of options exercised or to satisfy the option holders’ 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 2009, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program intended to mitigate the dilutive impact of shares issued under our various employee stock, stock option and stock purchase plans. Under the December 2009 program, management is authorized to repurchase shares of common stock in an amount not to exceed the number of shares issued to employees under our various employee stock, stock option and stock purchase plans from December 1, 2009 through December 15, 2011. The December 2009 program limits aggregate share repurchases to no more than 2 million shares of Ryder common stock. 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 a prearranged written plan for the Company under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as part of the December 2009 program, which allows for share repurchases during Ryder’s quarterly blackout periods as set forth in the trading plan. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, we repurchased and retired 109,064 shares under this program at an aggregate cost of $4.6 million.

(3)		In February 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a $100 million discretionary share repurchase program over a period not to exceed two years. Share repurchases of common stock may be made periodically in open-market transactions and are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors. Management has established a prearranged written plan for the Company under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as part of the February 2010 program, which allows for share repurchases during Ryder’s quarterly blackout periods as set forth in the trading plan. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, we repurchased and retired 720,000 shares under this program at an aggregate cost of $29.6 million.
