Description: URI United Rentals January 27, 2026
United Rentals, Inc. (NYSE: URI) runs the world’s largest equipment-rental fleet through two divisions: General Rentals, which supplies construction and industrial gear such as backhoes, forklifts, aerial lifts and power tools; and Specialty Rentals, which focuses on trench-safety systems, HVAC generators, fluid-handling solutions, modular offices and related consumables. Both segments also generate ancillary revenue from equipment sales, parts, and repair services, and the company operates across North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
As of the latest FY 2023 filing, URI reported revenue of $9.0 billion, a 5.2% year-over-year increase driven by a 6.1% rise in same-store rental revenue and an 84% fleet utilization rate-both above the industry median of ~78% (source: company earnings release, Q4 2023). The U.S. construction sector, a primary demand engine, is expanding at ~4% annual pace and benefitting from the $1.2 trillion infrastructure investment plan, which historically lifts equipment-rental volumes by 1–2% per year. However, rising interest rates and tighter credit conditions could suppress capital-intensive projects, a risk that would likely lower utilization if sustained.
