ALTA EQUIPMENT GROUP INC. Commitments Disclosure
NOTE 11 — CONTINGENCIES
Guarantees
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company was party to certain contracts in which we guarantee the performance of agreements with various third-party financial institutions. In the event of a default by a third-party, the Company would be required to pay all or a portion of the remaining unpaid obligations as specified in the contract. The estimated exposure related to these guarantees was not material as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. It is anticipated that the third parties will have the ability to repay the debt without the Company having to honor the guarantee; therefore, no amount has been accrued on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Legal Proceedings
During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, various claims and lawsuits, incidental to the ordinary course of our business, were pending against the Company. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, resolution of these matters, net of expected insurance proceeds, is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Contractual Obligations
The Company does not believe there are any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on the Company. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 there was $13.5 million and $12.0 million, respectively, in outstanding letters of credit issued in the normal course of business. These letters of credit reduce our available borrowings under our ABL Facility.

About Commitments Disclosures
Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.
Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
