In the third quarter, the Company reported record total revenue and record operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding all fuel and subcontracted transportation). Total revenue increased due to higher operating revenue and subcontracted transportation, reflecting new business and higher volumes. Total revenue also grew due to higher fuel costs passed through to customers. Operating revenue increased primarily due to higher revenue in the supply chain solutions business segment and higher contractual Ryder ChoiceLease™ (lease). Total revenue and operating revenue for the three months ended September 30 were as follows:

Note: There was no material currency impact in the third quarter of 2017.

Commenting on the Company’s third quarter results, Ryder Chairman and CEO Robert Sanchez said, "We performed in line with our expectations for the third quarter. Although earnings were down year over year, earnings comparisons improved from the second quarter of this year. In Fleet Management Solutions, we realized better than expected rental and used vehicle sales performance. We saw stronger than seasonal growth in rental demand, as well as hurricane-related activity late in the quarter, which, along with our earlier right-sizing actions, allowed us to outperform in rental. The net impact of hurricanes was neutral in the quarter, as hurricane-related increases in rental demand were offset by property losses. Used vehicle sales volumes were higher than anticipated, lowering our used vehicle inventory level to the middle of our target range a quarter earlier than anticipated. This represents the lowest level in two years, better positioning our inventory going forward. Additionally, used vehicle pricing was in line with our expectations.

"With the continuing benefit of secular trends that favor outsourcing, we have grown our ChoiceLease fleet by 1,900 vehicles year to date, and our expected full-year growth remains at 3,500 vehicles. We continue to tap into non-outsourced markets, with approximately 40% of our lease fleet growth coming from customers that are new to outsourcing. We also grew our SelectCare business by 5,400 vehicles year to date. Although down from a year ago, our Dedicated Transportation Solutions business performed in line with our expectations. Supply Chain Solutions results came in below expectations, primarily due to two customer accounts, including a particularly challenging start-up. We expect improvement in both accounts in the fourth quarter. Lastly, during the quarter, we continued our anti-dilutive share repurchase program and have repurchased over 900,000 shares in 2017."

Third Quarter Business Segment Operating Results
Fleet Management Solutions
In the Fleet Management Solutions (FMS) business segment, total revenue was $1.20 billion, up 4% from the year-earlier period. FMS operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel) was $1.03 billion, up 3% from the year-earlier period. Lease revenue increased 4%, reflecting a larger average fleet size and higher prices on replacement vehicles. The lease fleet (excluding U.K. trailers) increased by 1,100 vehicles year-to-date. As previously noted, in recent quarters, the Company has had an elevated number of vehicles being prepared for sale. Adjusting for a reduction in these vehicles during the quarter, the lease fleet grew by 1,900 vehicles over the same period. Commercial rental revenue was consistent with the year-earlier period, which is a significant improvement from the first half of 2017.

FMS earnings before tax were $100.7 million, down 11% compared with $112.5 million in the same period of 2016. Decreased earnings reflect lease and rental gross margin impacts from accelerated depreciation of $4 million and more normalized maintenance spending associated with vehicles being prepared for sale. Overhead spending also increased primarily due to the timing of incentive compensation and higher sales and marketing expense. These items were partially offset by improved performance across all product lines. Commercial rental performance improved due to higher pricing and improved utilization, reflecting the Company's fleet right-sizing actions taken earlier in the year. Rental power fleet utilization was 78.0% for the third quarter, up from 76.7% in the year-earlier period. Used vehicle results improved modestly due to lower inventory valuation adjustments, partially offset by lower pricing. Additionally, used vehicle inventories at quarter end are at the midpoint of the Company's target range. FMS earnings before tax as a percentage of FMS total revenue and FMS operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure) were 8.4% and 9.8%, respectively, down 130 and 150 basis points.

Dedicated Transportation Solutions
In the Dedicated Transportation Solutions (DTS) business segment, total revenue was $272 million, up 4%, and operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and subcontracted transportation) was $198 million, up 1% compared with the year-earlier period. DTS total revenue and operating revenue growth reflect new business, partially offset by one less work day.

DTS earnings before tax of $13.8 million decreased 22% compared with $17.6 million in 2016, primarily due to higher insurance premiums, higher maintenance costs on certain older model year vehicles, and the impact of one less work day. DTS earnings before tax as a percentage of DTS total revenue and operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure) were 5.1% and 7.0%, respectively, down 160 and 190 basis points from

the year-earlier period.

Supply Chain Solutions
In the Supply Chain Solutions (SCS) business segment, total revenue was $496 million, up 19%, and operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure excluding fuel and subcontracted transportation) was $376 million, up 9% compared with the year-earlier period. SCS total revenue and operating revenue growth primarily reflect new business.

SCS earnings before tax of $22.1 million decreased 29% from $31.0 million in 2016, primarily related to performance of two customer accounts, including a particularly challenging start-up. Additionally, results were impacted by higher overhead spending, primarily due to planned investments in information technology and sales. SCS earnings before tax as a percentage of SCS total revenue and operating revenue (a non-GAAP measure) were 4.4% and 5.9%, respectively, down 300 and 310 basis points from the prior year.

Corporate Financial Information
Central Support Services
Central Support Services (CSS) are overhead costs incurred to support all business segments and product lines. Most CSS costs are allocated to the business segments. In the third quarter of 2017, unallocated CSS costs were $11 million, up from $9 million in the year-earlier period.

Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2017 increased 220 basis points to 37.6% primarily due to a state law tax rate increase. Excluding the impact of the tax law change and other items, the comparable income tax rate (a non-GAAP measure) from continuing operations was 36.2%, generally consistent with the year-earlier period.     
    
Additional Items Excluded from Segment and Comparable Earnings
Non-operating components of pension costs are excluded from both segment earnings before tax and comparable earnings (a non-GAAP measure) in order to more accurately reflect the operating performance of the business. Non-operating pension costs totaled $7.0 million ($4.0 million after tax) or $0.08 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2017, compared with $7.4 million ($4.4 million after tax) or $0.08 per diluted share in the year-earlier period. Third quarter 2017 results also reflect estimated pension settlement charges of $5.5 million ($3.3 million after tax) related to the Company's exit from a multi-

4

Exhibit 99.1


employer pension plan and consulting fees of $4.3 million ($2.7 million after tax) associated with a cost savings program.

Capital Expenditures
Year-to-date capital expenditures were largely unchanged from the prior year. Capital expenditures reflect greater use of redeployed vehicles to fulfill new lease contracts. Lower lease spending was offset by higher planned investments to refresh the rental fleet. Proceeds, primarily from used vehicle sales, of $302 million decreased 11% compared with $338 million in 2016, due to lower vehicle pricing. Net capital expenditures (including proceeds from the sale of assets) were $1.07 billion in 2017, consistent with 2016.

Cash Flow and Leverage
Year-to-date operating cash flow was $1.2 billion, consistent with 2016. Total cash generated (a non-GAAP measure that includes proceeds from used vehicle sales) was $1.52 billion, compared with $1.58 billion in 2016. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) was $210 million, compared with $72 million in 2016, reflecting lower net capital spending. The Company's full-year forecast for operating cash flow remains unchanged at $1.6 billion. The Company's full-year free cash flow forecast also remains unchanged at $250 million.

Debt decreased by $42 million compared with year-end 2016. Debt to equity was 246% compared with 263% at year-end 2016, slightly below Ryder's long-term target range of 250% to 300%. The year-end debt to equity forecast remains unchanged at 240%.



2017 Earnings Forecast

Commenting on the Company’s outlook, Mr. Sanchez said, "Our overall earnings outlook for the fourth quarter remains on track with our prior expectations. We anticipate a somewhat improved outlook for Fleet Management Solutions related to higher demand and utilization in commercial rental. Our outlook for ChoiceLease fleet growth remains at 3,500 vehicles for the full year. We expect Ryder's used vehicle inventory to be near the low end of our target range by year end, which further improves the Company's position related to used vehicles entering 2018. Our outlook for used vehicle sales pricing remains unchanged. Improved performance in FMS is anticipated to be primarily offset by lower performance in Supply Chain Solutions. In the fourth quarter, we expect Supply Chain Solutions results to continue to be impacted, but to a lesser extent, by the account challenges experienced in the third quarter. Fourth quarter Supply Chain Solutions results are expected to be flat or modestly higher on a year-over-year basis.

Dedicated Transportation Solutions is expected to continue to be impacted by higher insurance premium rates and generally in line with our prior expectations."

Ryder is establishing a fourth quarter 2017 GAAP EPS forecast range of $1.16 to $1.26, and a comparable EPS forecast range of $1.31 to $1.41. This results in a full-year 2017 GAAP EPS forecast range of $3.95 to $4.05, vs. a prior forecast of $4.03 to $4.23. Additionally, the Company's full-year 2017 comparable EPS forecast has been revised to a range of $4.46 to $4.56 vs. a prior range of $4.38 to $4.58.

Notations
Earnings Before Tax (EBT): Ryder’s primary measurement of business segment financial performance, earnings before tax (EBT), allocates Central Support Services to each business segment and excludes restructuring and other items, as well as non-operating pension costs.

Capital Expenditures: In Ryder’s business, capital expenditures are generally used to purchase revenue earning equipment (trucks, tractors, and trailers) primarily to support the full service lease product line and secondarily to support the commercial rental product line within Ryder’s FMS business segment. The level of capital required to support the ChoiceLease product line varies directly with customer contract signings for growth and replacement vehicles. These contracts are long-term agreements that result in ongoing revenues and cash flows to Ryder, typically over a three- to ten-year term. The commercial rental product line utilizes capital for the purchase of vehicles to replenish and expand the Company’s fleet available for shorter-term use by contractual or occasional customers.

Notes:
(a)
FX impact was calculated by dividing the results for the current and prior year periods by the exchange rates in effect on
September 30, 2016, which was the last day of the prior year period, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect as of
September 30, 2017.
(b)
Included in cash flows from investing activities.

** Non-GAAP financial measure.
** Non-GAAP financial measure. We refer to the net amount of cash generated from operating activities and investing activities (excluding changes in restricted cash and acquisitions) from continuing operations as “free cash flow”. We calculate free cash flow as the sum of net cash provided by operating activities and net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment and operating property and equipment, collections on direct finance leases and other cash inflows from investing activities, less purchases of property and revenue earning equipment.
Note: Amounts may not be additive due to rounding.
