In addition, our parts t to our end users. Service Support. We provide maintenance and repair services to our own rental fleet and for our customers’ owned equipment. We devote resources to training our technical service employees and over time, we have built a service infrastructurt e that we believe would be difficult for companies without the requisite resources and lead time to effeff ctively replicate. In addition to our principal business activities mentioned above, we provide ancillaryrr equipment suppor u t activities including transportation, hauling, parts shipping and loss damage waivers. 5 Sales and Marketing We have a sales force which specializes in equipment rentals and sales. To further develop knowledge and experience, we provide our sales force with extensive training, including frequent factoryrr and in-house training by manufact urt er representatives regarding the operational featurt es, operator safety training and maintenance of the equipment that we rent and sell. This training is essential, as our sales personnel regularly call on customers’ job sites, ofteff n assisting customers in assessing their immediate and ongoing equipment needs. In addition, we have a commission-based compensation program for our sales force team. ff We maintain a proprietary customer relationship management system. We believe that this comprehensive customer and sales management tool enhances our regional territory operations by increasing the productivity and effiff ciency of our sales representatives and sales managers as they are provided real-time access to critical jobsite information. We are partnered with some of the world’s most advanced data information companies to assure our industryrr data is complete. We have developed strategies to identify target customers for equipment rentals in all markets. These strategies allow our sales force to identifyff new operations. frequent rental users, function as advisors and problem solvers for our customers, and accelerate the sales process in While our specialized, well-trained sales force strengthens our customer relationships and fosters customer loyalty, we also promote our business through marketing and advertising, including digital marketing, direct mail campaigns, select industryrr publications and associations, and our Company website at www.he-equipment.com. q p Our Competitive Strengths Integre ated Platfot rm of Equipmi ent, Products and Services. We believe that our operating experience and the extensive infrastructurt e we have developed through years of operating as both an equipment rental company and equipment distributor provides us with a competitive advantage to broaden our industryrr expansion and successfulff ly transition to a primarily rental-focused company. Key strengths of ours include: • • • • • • the ability to provide premium brands and a comprehensive line of equipment and services; the ability to track utilization and facilitate the transferff demand; of our fleet across multiple locations to adjud st to local customer high quality rental fleet suppor u ted by our strong product suppor u t capabilities; establa ished retail sales network resulting in the profitaff bla e disposal of our used equipment; purchasing power gained through purchases for our rental operations fleet; and operational cost effiff ciencies across our organization, including with respect to purchasing, information technology, back-office suppor t and marketing. u High- i Quality,yy Multipurpos rr e Fleet.

Our workforce included, as of December 31, 2023, a highly-skilled group of approximately 613 service technicians and an aggregate of 332 sales people in our sales force. We believe that our well-developed infrastructurt e helps us to better serve large multi-regional customers and provides an advantage when competing for lucrative fleet and project management business as well as the ability to quickly capitalize on new opportunities. 6 Strong Supplier Relationshipsi . We have longstanding relationships with nationally-recognized equipment suppl u iers, including JLG Industries, Gehl, Genie Industries (Terex), Komatsu, Takeuchi, JCB, John Deere, Yanmar, Skyjkk ack, Sany and Case. These relationships improve our ability to negotiate equipment acquisition pricing and allow us to purchase parts at wholesale costs. Customized Infon rmation Technology Systyy ems.

Our customer base includes a wide range of industrial and commercial companies, construcrr tion contractors, manufacturt ers, public utilities, municipalities, maintenance contractors and numerous and diverse other large industrial accounts. Our branches enable us to closely service local and regional customers, while our infrastructurt e enables us to effeff ctively service multi-regional and national accounts. We believe that our expansive presence and commitment to supeu rior service at all levels of the organization is a key differentiator to many of our competitors. As a result, we spend a significant amount of time and resources to train all key personnel to be responsive and deliver high quality customer service and well-maintained equipment so that we can maintain and grow our customer relationships. Expex rienced Management Team. Our senior management team is led by Bradley W. Barber, our Chief Executive Offiff cer, who has over 29 years of industryrr experience. Our senior and regional management team have approximately 26 years on average of industryrr experience. Our branch managers have extensive knowledge and industryrr experience as well.

However, rings, increasing the availabia lity of our product offeff offeff the timing and extent to which we implement these various aspects of our strategy depend on a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control, such as general economic and geopolitical conditions and construcr tion activity in the U.S. Managing the Lifei Cycle of Our Rental Equipmi ent. We actively manage the size, quality, age and composition of our rental fleet, employing a “cradle through grave” approach. During the lifeff of our rental equipment, we (1) aggressively negotiate on purchase price; (2) use our customized information technology systems to closely monitor and analyze, among other things, time utilization (equipment usage based on customer demand and calculated as our fleet’s original equipment cost on-rent divided by our fleet’s total original equipment cost, averaged over the time period), rental rate trends and pricing optimization and equipment demand; (3) continuously adjud st our fleet mix and pricing; (4) maintain fleet quality through quality control inspections and our on-site parts and services suppor competitive prices, optimally utilize our fleet, cost-effecff equipment at the end of its usefulff t; and (5) dispose of fleet through sales of rental equipment.

We are now a pure-play rental company transitioning over the past few years from our historical operations as an integrated equipment services company by completing strategic divestiturt es of our distribution channels. We completed one divesturt e during the year ended December 31, 2022 and two divestitures during the year ended December 31, 2021. On December 15, 2022, we sold our Komatsu distribution rights in Louisiana to Waukesha-Pearce Industries, LLC.

We serve approximately 44,200 customers in the United States, primarily in the Pacific Northwest, West Coast, Intermountain, Southwest, Gulf Coast, Southeast, Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. Our customers include industrial and commercial companies, construcrr contractors, municipalities and numerous and diverse other large industrial accounts. They range from individuals to large contractors and industrial and commercial companies who typically operate under equipment and maintenance budgets. Our branches enable us to closely service local and regional customers, while our infrastructurt e enables us to effeff ctively service multi-regional and national accounts. Our contracts with customers vary in duration, but subsu tantially all of our rental contracts include rates for daily, weekly or monthly use and typically include cancellation clauses without termination penalties. In 2023, our largest customer accounted for less than 4% of total revenues. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue in 2023. Our top ten customers combined accounted for approximately 7.6% of our total revenues in 2023. urt ers, public utilities, maintenance tion contractors, manufact ff Suppliers We purchase a significant amount of equipment from leading, nationally-known original equipment manufacff turers.

Although there has been some consolidation within the equipment industryrr istributorship is generally comprised of either pure rental equipment companies or manufact companies. We historically operated as an integrated equipment services company by renting, selling and providing parts and services suppor u highly fragmented and consists mainly of a small number of multi-location regional or national operators and a large number of relatively small, independent businesses serving discrete local markets. Many of the markets in which we operate are served by numerous competitors, ranging from national and multi-regional equipment rental companies (for example, URI, Sunbelt Rentals and Herc Rentals) to small, independent businesses with a limited number of locations. in recent years, the equipment industryrr urt er dealer/drr remains ff We believe that participants in the equipment rental industryrr generally compete on the basis of availabia lity, quality, reliability, deliveryrr and price.

As a result of consolidation and competition, both manufacff turers and distributors sought to streamline their operations, improve their costs and gain market share. Our establa ished, integrated infrastructurt e enables us to compete directly with our competitors on either a local, regional or national basis. We believe customers place greater emphasis on value-added services, teaming with equipment rental and sales companies who can meet all of their equipment, parts and services needs. 8 Seasonality Although our business is not significantly impacted by seasonality, the demand for our rental equipment tends to be lower in the winter months.

Thereforff e, equipment rental performance will be correlated to the levels of current construcrr severity of weather conditions can have a temporaryrr impact on the level of construcr tion activities. tion and tion activities. The Equipment cycles are also subju ect to some seasonality with the peak rental periods occurring during the spring and summer seasons and peak selling periods occurring during the fourth quarter. Environmental and Safety Regulations Our facilities and operations are subju ect to comprehensive and frequently changing federal, state and local environmental and occupau tional health and safety laws. These laws regulate (1) the handling, storage, use and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes and, if any, the associated cleanupu of properties affeff cted by pollutants; (2) air quality (emissions); and (3) wastewater. While our operations generally do not raise significant environmental risks, we use petroleum products, solvents and other hazardous subsu tances for fueling and maintaining our equipment and vehicles. We have made, and will continue to make, capia tal and other expenditures to comply with environmental requirements. We do not currently anticipate any material adverse effeff ct on our business, financial condition or competitive position as a result of our effoff rts to comply with such requirements. In the future, federal, state or local governments could enact new or more stringent laws or issue new or more stringent regulations concerning environmental and worker health and safety matters, reporting and disclosure obligations, or effeff ct a change in their enforcement of existing laws or regulations, that could affeff ct our operations and increase our operational and compliance expenditures.

Human Capital We believe our employees are our greatest asset. As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately 2,765 employees, of which 977 are salaried personnel and 1,788 are hourly personnel. A collective bargaining agreement relating to two branch locations covers approximately 75 of our employees. We believe our relations with our employees are favorable and we have never experienced a work stoppage. Generally, the total number of employees remains relatively consistent throughout the year. Acquisition activity or the opening of new branches may increase the number of our employees or fluctuations in the level of our business activity could require some staffiff ng level adjud stments in response to align with customer demand. H&E employees drive our business growth and success. Likewise, we strive to drive their own profesff sional growth, success and wellbeing. We do so by providing a workplkk ace in which safety, diversity, inclusion, talent development, training, competitive pay and quality benefits are prioritized. As an equipment company run by equipment people, our culture is one built on integrity, cooperation and teamwork. H&E workplkk ace policies and initiatives aim to create a workplkk ace of choice that attracts and retains the talent needed to achieve our business objectives. Health and Safetff y.tt The health and safety of our employees is an unwavering core value and is prioritized through our LIVESAFE program, which focuses on employee safety at work, home, and play. Senior operational leaders play a vital role in the communication, implementation, and follow-through of our safety program and we require accountability, commitment and compliance from all employees. Behavioral safety is the foundation of our safety culture, which incorporates elements such as job safety observations, near miss reporting, safety meetings and ride-along programs, among others. We also require all new hires to perform job specificff training. Additionally, we require all employees to participate in annual safety training. These proactive measures in conjunction with the full implementation of stop-work authority at all levels helps to set a culture of safety at branch locations. Assessments and standard safety performance metrics provide for transparency and accountability at all levels of our organization while incentive programs focus on accident prevention and behavior safety improvements to reward employee safety performance. Utilizing Occupau tional Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) standard metrics, in 2023 our lost time incident rate was 0.10 and our total reportable incident rate was 0.98. and regulatoryrr Emplm oyee Wellness and Benefie ts.

We share our success by giving back to communities and, in turn, they provide us with the talent required to drive our business success. We encourage our branches to pursue outreach opportunities that best meet the needs of their respective communities and interests of their employees. At the corporate level, we focus on the educd ation of disadvantaged youth, outreach programs and community awareness to aid individuals and families seeking treatment and recovery services and mental health resources in our headquarters community of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In recent years, we have provided philanthropic and volunteer suppor t to two innovative local high schools where children of low-income parents can receive a college preparatoryrr educd ation and assisted to fund an outreach program providing community awareness for mental health and recovery services. We also administer a business and employee assistance fund that u suppor ts small businesses and employees in emergency situations and disaster recovery. u Sustainability H&E recognizes the importance of environmental stewardship, social responsibility and transparent governance. We are committed to advancing each of these through our business conduct and operations. A cross-functional environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) task force of senior management leads this work with oversight from the ESG Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. During 2022, we engaged an external resource to begin initial development of an ESG strategy and ESG programs and policies that will serve as a blueprint to guide our progress going forward, and during 2023 we continued to work with them on building our ESG framework. Additionally in 2023, we published an ESG page on our Company’s web page as part of our commitment to advancing our ESG reporting and disclosures to customers, manufact urt ers, and investors alike. ff We are working to identifyff and understand areas of the business in which we can reduce the environmental impact, including our footprt carbon int. As an example, we have deployed telematics tracking and strategies to improve the management of our r transportation fleet, which has resulted in our ability to reduce the idle time of our transportation vehicles, saving fuel consumption. While to date we have not completed an inventoryrr of our greenhouse gas emissions, we realize that use of rental equipment by customers is a significant component. To address this, we are committed to evaluating alternative fuel and electric products for our rental fleet as these technologies become availabla e, are successfully tested in the field of operation and as customer demand for them increases. Our batteryrr and electricity powered equipment currently comprise 34% of the units we rent as of December 31, 2023. Our environmentally friendly fleet includes a range of battery-powered and hybrid equipment such as scissor lifts, boom lifts and material handling equipment.

The market value of any given piece of rental equipment could be less than its depreciated value at the time it is sold. The market value of used rental equipment depends on several factors, including: • • • • • • • the market price for new equipment of a like kind; wear and tear on the equipment relative to its age; the time of year that it is sold (prices are generally higher during the construcr tion season); worldwide and domestic demands for used equipment; advances in equipment technology and emission controls that may not be availabla e for older equipment; u the suppl y of used equipment on the market; and general economic conditions. We include in operating income the difference between the sales price and the depreciated value of an item of equipment sold. Although for the year ended December 31, 2023, we sold used equipment from our rental fleet at an average selling price of approximately 255.0% of net book value, we cannot assure you that used equipment selling prices will not decline.

The costs of maintenance may materially increase in the future and could lead to material adverse effeff cts on our results of operations. In addition, older equipment may not be as attractive to our customers. The cost of new equipment for use in our rental fleet could also increase due to increased material costs for our suppl u iers (including tariffsff on raw materials) or other factors beyond our control. Such increases could materially adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations in future periods. Furthermore, changes in customer demand could cause certain of our existing equipment to become obsolete and require us to purchase new equipment at increased costs.

We have made estimates regarding the relationship between the age of our rental fleet equipment, maintenance and repair costs, and the market value of used equipment.

We would expect to pay for any future acquisitions using cash or availabla e borrowings, but to the extent that our existing sources of cash or borrowings are not sufficient, we would expect to need additional debt or equity financing, which involves its own risks, such as the dilutive effeff ct on shares held by our stockholders if we financed acquisitions by issuing convertible debt or equity securities, or the risks associated with debt incurrence, such as increase debt service obligations and covenant compliance requirements.

We have a significant amount of indebtedness outstanding. As of December 31, 2023, we had total outstanding indebtedness of approximately $1.4 billion, consisting of the amount outstanding under our senior unsecured notes, our senior secured credit facility (“Credit Facility”) and our finance lease liabia lities. Our subsu tantial indebtedness could have important consequences. For example, it could: • • • • • increase our vulnerabia lity to general adverse economic, industryrr and competitive conditions; require us to dedicate a subsu tantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availabia lity of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purpos es; r limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industryrr in which we operate; place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; and limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate r purpos es. We expect to use cash flow from operations and borrowings under our Credit Facility to meet our current and future financial obligations, including funding our operations, debt service and capital expenditures. Our ability to make these payments depends on our future performance, which will be affeff cted by financial, business, economic and other factors, many of which we cannot control. Our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future, which could result in our being unabla e to repay indebtedness, or to fund other liquidity needs. If we do not have enough capital, we may be forced to reduce or delay our business activities and capia tal expenditures, sell assets, obtain additional debt or equity capia tal or restructurt e or refinance all or a portion of our debt, including the senior unsecured notes and our Credit Facility, on or before maturity. We cannot make any assurances that we will 17 be able to accomplish any of these alternatives on terms acceptabla e to us, or at all. In addition, the terms of existing or future indebtedness, including the agreements governing the senior unsecured notes and the Credit Facility, may limit our ability to pursue any of these alternatives. As of Februar us with borrowing availabia lity of $460.3 million, as a result of $12.3 million of letters of credit outstanding under the facility. ry 15, 2024, we had borrowings of $277.3 million outstanding under our Credit Facility leaving We maya not be able to generate suffu icff our indebtedtt nedd our obligll atiott ns underdd ient cash to service allll of our indebtedtt nedd .ll ss, which maya not be successfulff ss and maya be forced to take othett r actions to satisfii yff Our ability to make scheduled payments or to refinance our debt obligations depends on our financial and operating performance, which is subju ect to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business and other factors beyond our control. We cannot make assurances that we will maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness. In the absence of such operating results and resources, we could face subsu tantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations. The Credit Facility and the indenturt e governing the senior unsecured notes restrict our ability to dispose of assets and use the proceeds from the disposition. We may not be able to consummate those dispositions or to obtain the proceeds which we could realize from such dispositions. Any proceeds we do receive from a disposition may not be adequate to meet any debt service obligations then due. If our cash flows and capia tal resources are insufficff ient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell assets or operations, seek additional capital or restructurt e or refinance our indebtedness. We cannot assure you that we would be able to take any of these actions, that these actions would be successfulff debt service obligations or that these actions would be permitted under the terms of our existing or future debt agreements, including the Credit Facility or the indenturt e governing the senior unsecured notes. and permit us to meet our scheduled If we cannot make scheduled payments on our debt, we will be in default and, as a result: • • • our debt holders could declare all outstanding principal and interest to be due and payabla e; the lenders under our credit facilities, including the Credit Facility, could terminate their commitments to lend us money and foreclose against the assets securing our outstanding borrowings under their facility; and we could be forced into bankrupt r cy or liquidation.

Additionally, our Credit Facility provides revolving commitments of up to $750.0 million in the aggregate. As of Februarr ry 15, 2024, we had $460.3 million of availabia lity under the Credit Facility, as a result of $12.3 million of letters of credit outstanding under the facility. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, the risks that we now face relating to our subsu tantial indebtedness could intensify.ff The agreements governirr ngii certain corporatett and finaii ncial transactiott ns. the Creditdd Faciliii tyii and our senior unsecured notes restritt ct our busineii ss and our abiliii tyii to engage in The agreements governing the Credit Facility and the senior unsecured notes contain certain covenants that, among other things, restrict or limit our and our restricted subsu idiaries’ ability to: • • • • • • • • incur more debt; pay dividends and make distributions; issue preferff red stock of subsu idiaries; make investments; repurchase stock; create liens; enter into transactions with affiff liates; enter into sale and lease-back transactions; 18 • • • execute dispositions; merge or consolidate; and transferff and sell assets. Our ability to borrow under the Credit Facility depends upon compliance with the restrictions contained in the Credit Facility. Events beyond our control could affeff ct our ability to meet these covenants. In addition, the Credit Facility requires us to meet certain financial conditions tests and availabia lity thereunder is subju ect to borrowing base availabia lity. Events beyond our control can affeff ct our ability to meet these financial conditions tests and to comply with other provisions governing the Credit Facility and the senior unsecured notes. Our failure to comply with obligations under the agreements governing the Credit Facility and the senior unsecured notes may result in an event of default under the agreements governing the Credit Facility and the senior unsecured notes, respectively. A default, if not cured or waived, may permit acceleration of this indebtedness and our other indebtedness. We may not be able to remedy these defaults. If our indebtedness is accelerated, we may not have sufficff ient funds availabla e to pay the accelerated indebtedness and may not have the ability to refinance the accelerated indebtedness on terms favorabla e to us or at all. Variablell rate indebtedtt nedd ss subjectstt us to interest rate riskii ,k which couldll cause our debt service obligll atiott ns to increase signi ificff antly.yy Borrowings under the Credit Facility are at variable rates of interest, based on the U.S. prime rate and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), and expose us to interest rate risk. As such, our financial results are sensitive to movements in interest rates. There are many economic factors outside our control that have in the past impacted, and may in the future impact, rates of interest, including publicly announced indices that underlie our interest obligations related to borrowings under the Credit Facility based on SOFR. SOFR is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasuryrr securities. u Factors that also impact interest rates include, among others, governmental monetary policies, inflation, recession, changes in y, international disorder and instability in domestic and foreign financial markets. If interest rates unemployment, the money suppl increase, our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the amount borrowed remained the same, and our results of operations would be adversely impacted. Such increases in interest rates could have a material adverse effeff ct on our financial conditions and results of operations. Notabla y, afteff r years of a low interest rate environment, central banks across the globe significantly increased interest rates to stem inflation and as a result, global inflation began to stabilize. However, there is no certainty as to whether interest rates will stabilize, continue to increase or decrease.

The cash that we generate from our business, together with cash that we may borrow under our Credit Facility, if availabla e, may not be sufficient to fund our capia tal requirements. We may require additional financing to obtain capia tal for, among other purpos purchasing equipment, completing acquisitions, establa ishing new locations and refinancing existing indebtedness. Any additional indebtedness that we incur will make us more vulnerabla e to economic downturt ns and limit our ability to withstand competitive pressures. Moreover, we may not be able to obtain additional capital on acceptabla e terms, if at all. If we are unabla e to obtain sufficff additional financing in the future, our business could be adversely affeff cted by reducing our ability to increase revenues and profitaff bia lity. rr es, ient In addition, our ability to refinance indebtedness will depend in part on our operating and financial performance, which, in turn, is subju ect to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business, legislative, regulatoryrr and other factors beyond our control. In addition, prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of refinancing could increase our interest expense. A refinancing of our indebtedness could also require us to comply with more onerous covenants and further restrict our business operations. Our inability to refinance our indebtedness or to do so upon attractive terms could materially and adversely affeff ct our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and make us vulnerabla e to adverse industryrr and general economic conditions. If we are unabla e to refinance our indebtedness or obtain additional capital sufficient to fund our capia tal requirements, we may be forced, among other things, to do one or more of the following: (i) sell certain of our assets, which could affeff ct revenue generation and profitaff bia lity; (ii) reduce the size of our rental fleet, which could have a similar impact; (iii) reduce or delay capital expenditures; (iv) reduce or eliminate our dividend; (v) issue additional equity, which could have a dilutive effeff ct on current shareholders; or (vi) forgo business opportunities, including acquisitions and joint venturt es. 19 The contintt ued payment of our quarterlyll dividend is subject to, among othett our board of direii ctortt s.rr r things,s the availaii bilityii of fuff ndsdd and the discii retion of The payment of future dividends and the amount thereof is uncertain, at the sole discretion of our board of directors and considered by the board of directors each quarter. The payment of dividends is dependent upon, among other things, operating cash flow generated by our business, financial requirements for our operations, the execution of our growth strategy, the restrictions and covenants pursuant to our Credit Facility and senior unsecured notes, and the satisfaction of solvency tests imposed by the Delaware General Corporation Law and other applicable law for the declaration and payment of dividends.

These laws and requirements address multiple aspects of our operations, such as worker safety, consumer rights, privacy, employee benefits, gas emissions and more, and can ofteff n have different requirements in different jurisdictions. Changes in these requirements, or any material failure by our branches to comply with them, could increase our costs, affeff ct our reputation, limit our business, drain management’s time and attention or otherwise, generally impact our operations in adverse ways.

As a result, we are subju ect to the requirements of federal, state and local environmental protection and occupau tional health and safety laws and regulations. These laws regulate issues such as wastewater, stormwater, solid and hazardous waste and materials, and air quality. While our operations generally do not raise significant environmental risks, we use petroleum products, solvents and other hazardous subsu tances for fueling and maintaining our equipment and vehicles. Environmental laws also impose obligations and liability for the cleanup of properties affeff cted by hazardous subsu tance spills or releases. These liabia lities can be imposed on the parties generating or disposing of such subsu tances or the operator of the affeff cted property, ofteff n without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of,ff or was responsible for, the presence of hazardous subsu tances. Accordingly, we may become liabla e, either contractuat operated by us, or if the contamination was caused by third parties during or prior to our ownership or operation of the property. As such, there can be no assurance that prior site assessments or investigations have identifieff d all potential instances of soil or groundwater contamination. Future events, such as changes in existing laws or policies or their enforcement, or the discovery of currently unknown contamination, may give rise to additional remediation liabia lities, which may be material. lly or by operation of law, for remediation costs even if a contaminated property is not currently owned or We are subju ect to potentially significant civil or criminal fines or penalties if we fail to comply with any of these requirements. We have made and will continue to make capital and other expenditures in order to comply with these laws and regulations. These include climate change regulation, which could materially affeff ct our operating results through increased compliance costs. The requirements of these laws and regulations are complex, change frequently, and could become more stringent in the future. It is possible that these requirements will change or that liabia lities will arise in the future in a manner that could have a material adverse effeff ct on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the U.S. Congress and other state and federal legislative and regulatoryrr authorities in the United States have considered, and likely will continue to consider, numerous measures related to climate change, greenhouse gas emissions and other laws and regulations affeff cting some of our end markets, such as oil, gas and other natural resource extraction. Should such laws and regulations become effeff ctive, demand for our services could be affeff cted, our fleet or other costs could increase and our business could be materially adversely affeff cted. For example, the Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) recently issued a final rule that will sharplrr y reduce emissions of methane and other harmful air pollution from oil and natural gas operations, including from existing sources nationwide. The final rule includes New Source Performance Standards, to reduce methane and smog-forming volatile organic compounds from new, modified and reconstrucr they develop plans to limit methane from existing sources, including oil and natural gas operations. While we cannot be certain of this rule’s impact as we wait for states to submu it their plans to the EPA for approval, we anticipate that this could adversely impact the operations of our customers, specifically those in the oil and gas industry,rr which could reduce demand for our services and have an adverse impact on our business. ted sources, and Emissions Guidelines, which set procedurd es for states to follow as 20 Further, investors are placing a greater emphasis on non-financial factors, including climate risk and other ESG issues, when evaluating investment opportunities.

For instance, it is expected that laws and regulations around the use of AI and machine learning tools will increase over the next few years but it is unknown at this time what these laws and regulations will address and how and whether they will be adopted globally. If we introduce AI or machine learning into our information technology systems (as well as those of our customers through our technology platform), we could become subju ect to these new regulations, which may be difficult to comply with. Some of our competitors may not be required to comply, which would put us at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, we may find we do not have the right employee expertise for the advancement of AI and machine learning initiatives or that we that we haven’t provided the appropriate training to our team. Further, if we fail to adopt these new technologies we may face price pressure from competitors using lower-cost AI systems. skk General Business Riskii Fluctuatiott ns in the stoctt k market,tt as well as general economic and market conditiodd stoctt k. ns,s maya impacm t the market price of our common The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be subju ect to significant fluctuations in response to general economic changes and other factors including, but not limited to: • • • • • • • variations in our quarterly operating results or results that vary from investor expectations; changes in the strategy and actions taken by our competitors, including pricing changes; securities analysts’ elections to discontinue coverage of our common stock, changes in financial estimates by analysts or a downgrade of our common stock or of our sector by analysts; announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint venturt es or capital commitments; changes in the price of oil and other commodities; investor perceptions of us and the equipment rental and distribution industry;rr and national or regional catastrophes or circumstances and natural disasters, hostilities and acts of terrorism.

Litigation in general can be expensive, lengthy and disrupt normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. Responding to lawsuits brought against us, or legal actions that we may initiate, can ofteff n be expensive and time-consuming. Unfavorable outcomes from these claims and/or lawsuits could adversely affeff ct our business, results of operations, or financial condition, and we could incur subsu tantial monetary liability and/or be required to change our business practices. r ive to Our business exposes us to claims for personal injun ry, death or property damage resulting from the use of the equipment we rent or sell and from injun ries caused in motor vehicle accidents in which our deliveryrr and service personnel are involved and other employee related matters. Additionally, we could be subju ect to potential litigation associated with compliance with various laws and governmental regulations at the federal, state or local levels, such as those relating to the protection of persons with disabia lities, employment, health, safety, security and other regulations under which we operate. We carry comprehensive insurance, subju ect to deductibles, at levels we believe are sufficient to cover existing and future claims made during the respective policy periods. However, we may be exposed to multiple claims, and, as a result, we could incur significant out-of-pocket costs before reaching the deductible amount which could adversely affeff ct our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the cost of such insurance policies may increase significantly upon renewal of those policies as a result of general rate increases for the type of insurance we carry as well as our historical experience and experience in our industry.rr Although we have not experienced any material losses that were not covered by insurance, our existing or future claims may exceed the coverage level of our insurance, and such insurance may not continue to be availabla e on economically reasonabla e terms, or at all. If we are required to pay significantly higher premiums for insurance, are not able to maintain insurance coverage at affoff rdable rates or if we must pay amounts in excess of claims covered by our insurance, we could experience higher costs that could adversely affeff ct our financial condition and results of operations. Item 1B. Unresolved Staffff Comments None. Item 1C. Cybersecurity We rely on our technology network infrastructurt e and information systems to operate our business, rent our equipment, interact ort and grow our customer base and bill, collect and make payments, among other functions. Our with vendors and customers, suppu internally developed infrastructurt e and systems, as well as those systems and processes provided by third-party vendors, may be susceptible to damage or interruptu ion from cybersecurity threats, which include any unauthorized access to our information systems that may result in adverse effeff cts on the confidff entiality, integrity, or availabia lity of such systems or the related information. Such attacks have become more sophisticated over time, especially as threat actors have become increasingly well-funded by, or themselves include, governmental actors with significant means. We expect that sophistication of cyber-threats will continue to evolve as threat actors increase their use of AI and machine-learning technologies. The Company has robust processes for assessing, identifyiff ng and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats that are integrated into our overall risk management process. The Company utilizes the National Institutt e of Standards and Technology (NIST) framework as the basis for our cybersecurity management approach. Under the supeu rvision of the Chief Information Offiff cer (“CIO”), we review our cybersecurity insurance policy and regularly identify all computing assets including hardware, software, and network infrastructurt e for a comprehensive risk assessment. We consider threats that may originate from both internal and external sources and build in technical security controls based on a defense-in-depth strategy. To identifyff assessments on a recurring basis to proactively identifyff potential weaknesses. We additionally employ third party external and internal penetration testing on an annual basis to assist in identifyiff ng additional vulnerabia lities in our environment. We also perform disaster recovery exercises throughout the organization annually by our in-house team. In connection with our threat management and overall risk management process, we receive recurring threat intelligence from our partners that help us recognize the updated tactics, techniques, and procedurd es being utilized by threat actors and apply the MITRE ATT&CK framework to review defensive coverage against cybersecurity attacks. Employees at H&E receive mandatory recurring cybersecurity training and phishing exercises to reduce the likelihood of success by threat actors. Our managed detection and response partner provides 24/7 monitoring and detection of our cybersecurity environment, which allows us to timely respond to cybersecurity events with the goal of reducing its potential impact.

The CIO has over 25 years of experience and has been a member and leader of our Company’s information systems and technological advancements for the past 21 years. The Director of IT Security, reporting to our VP of Infrastrucr ture, is responsible for our overall network security and assessing and managing cybersecurity risks and threats. The Director of IT Security has over 15 years of experience working in IT security and holds CISSP and GIAC certificff ations. The VP of Infrastructurt e reports to our CIO, and has principal responsibility for our network infrastructurt e and the operation of our cybersecurity program, network and system administration. The VP of Infrastructurt e has over 29 years of experience in system administration and has specialized in ERP systems and network infrastructurt e. Collectively, the IT Security Team prepares updates and presentations for the Board of Directors, Audit Committee and executive management. The IT Security team reports the detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents to executive management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. If we were to experience a cybersecurity incident, our Director of IT Security will inform the rest of the IT Security Team, which will then evaluate and assess the materiality of the incident to the Company, its information technology infrastructurt e and data integrity, and in accordance with our incident response plan, notifyff executive management and the necessary finance, operations and legal team functions. The CIO would determine whether the cybersecurity incident should be reported to the Audit Committee of the Board in advance of the next scheduled cybersecurity update. Once a cybersecurity incident is reported to the Audit Committee of the Board and potentially the overall Board of Directors, the Audit Committee, with the input of the IT Security Team and executive management, will determine how to address it and whether or not the incident would require external reporting. The Company’s Board of Directors, specificff ally the Audit Committee, is responsible for oversight and governance related to our cybersecurity processes and risk management. The CIO reports the results of the annual comprehensive risk assessment, including the evaluation of cybersecurity risks, the actions we have taken to mitigate these risks and an analysis of cybersecurity threats and incidents across the industryrr Committee on a semi-annual basis, or more frequently should a cybersecurity risk or event emerge requiring additional communication.

Backgrk ound Founded in 1961 through our predecessor companies, we have been in the equipment services business for approximately 62 years and are one of the largest rental equipment companies in the nation. H&E Equipment Services L.L.C. (“ H&E L.L.C.”) was formed in June 2002 through the business combination of Head & Engquist, a wholly-owned subsu idiary of Gulf Wide Industries, L.L.C., and ICM Equipment Company L.L.C.

Our workforce includes an outside and inside sales force for our rental operations and equipment sales, highly skilled service technicians, transportation drivers and regional and district managers. Our management, from the corporate level down to the branch store level, has extensive industryrr experience. We believe this allows us to provide specialized equipment knowledge, improve the effeff ctiveness of our sales force and strengthen our customer relationships. In addition, we operate our day-to-day business on a branch basis, which allows us to more closely service our customers, fosters management accountability at local levels and strengthens our local and regional relationships. s youngest with an Effeff ctive September 17, 2021, the Company sold its Little Rock, Arkansas and Springdale, Arkansas owned-branches.

For additional information about our business segments, see Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Revenue Sources We generate all of our total revenues from our five business activities and our other equipment suppor u t activities. Equipment rentals accounts for the majoa rity of our total revenues. The pie charts below illustrate a breakdown of our revenues and gross profitff for the year ended December 31, 2023 by source: The equipment that we rent, sell and service is principally used in the construcr tion industry,rr as well as by companies for commercial and industrial uses such as plant maintenance and turnarounds, and in the petrochemical and energy sectors. As a result, our total revenues are affeff cted by several factors including, but not limited to, the demand for and availabia lity of rental equipment, rental rates and other competitive factors, the demand for used and new equipment, the level of construcr spending levels by our customers, adverse weather conditions, suppl ions and general economic conditions. tion and industrial activities, y chain disrupt u r ent Rentals.ll Our rental operation primarily represents revenues from renting owned equipment of our core types of tion and industrial equipment (aerial work platforms, earthmoving equipment, material handling equipment and other Equipmi construcr general and specialty lines). We primarily account for these rental contracts as operating leases. We recognize revenue from equipment rentals in the period earned, regardless of the timing of billing to customers. A rental contract includes rates for daily, weekly or monthly use, and rental revenues are earned on a daily basis as rental contracts remain outstanding. We have a well- maintained rental fleet and we actively manage the size, quality, age and composition of our rental fleet. Sales of Rental Equipmi ent. We generate the majoa rity of our used sales revenues by selling equipment from our rental fleet. Sales of New Equipmi ent. Our sales of new equipment operation sells equipment across all of our core categories of equipment. 28 Parts,tt Service and Othett r. We primarily generate revenues from the sale of parts for equipment that we rent or sell. We primarily derive our services revenues from maintenance and repair services for equipment that we rent or sell and from customers' owned equipment. Our other revenues relate primarily to ancillaryrr charges associated with equipment maintenance and repair services. ii Principal Coststt and Expexx nses Our largest expenses are rental expenses, rental depreciation, rental other expenses, the costs associated with the used equipment we sell, the costs to purchase new equipment and costs associated with parts sales and services, all of which are included in cost of revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2023, our total cost of revenues was approximately $784.8 million. Our operating expenses consist principally of selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”). For year ended December 31, 2023, our SG&A expenses were $405.4 million. In addition, we have interest expense primarily related to our debt instruments. Operating expenses and all other income and expense items below the gross profitff generally allocated to our reportabla e segments. line of our Consolidated Statements of Income are not We are also subju ect to federal and state income taxes.

The management of our working capital is closely tied to operating cash flows, as working capital can be impacted by, among other things, our accounts receivabla e activities, the level of equipment inventory,rr which may increase or decrease in response to current and expected demand, and the size and timing of our trade accounts payabla e payment cycles. t Rentaltt Fleell A subsu tantial portion of our overall value is in our rental fleet equipment. The net book value of our rental equipment at December 31, 2023 was $1.8 billion, or approximately 66.5% of our total assets. Our rental fleet as of December 31, 2023 consisted of 61,044 units having an original acquisition cost (which we define as the cost originally paid to manufact billion.

We constantly evaluate the mix, age and quality of the equipment in our rental fleet in response to current economic and market conditions, competition and customer demand as part of our fleet management strategy. The mix and age of our rental fleet, as well as our cash flows, are impacted by sales of rental equipment, which are influenced by used equipment pricing at the retail and secondary auction market levels, the demand for our rental fleet, the availabia lity of new equipment and the capia tal expenditures to acquire fleet. In making equipment acquisition decisions, we evaluate current economic and market conditions, competition, manufacturt ers’ availabia lity, pricing and return on investment over the estimated usefulff among other things. As a result of our in-house service capabilities and extensive maintenance program, our rental fleet is well- maintained. lifeff of the specificff equipment, The original acquisition cost of our gross rental fleet increased by approximately $432.6 million, or 18.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2023, largely reflective of an increase in rental fleet capital expenditures. The average age of our rental fleet equipment decreased by approximately 3.9 months for the year ended December 31, 2023. Our average rental rates for the year ended December 31, 2023 were approximately 5.6% higher than the year ended December 31, 2022 (see further discussion on rental rates in “Results of Operations” below). The rental equipment mix among our core product lines for the year ended December 31, 2023 was largely consistent with that of the prior year as a percentage of total units availabla e for rent and as a percentage of original acquisition cost. ii Principal External Factortt srr that Affeff ct our Busineii sses We are subju ect to a number of external factors that may adversely affeff ct our businesses. These factors, and other factors, are discussed below and under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements,” and in Item 1A—Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. • • tion and industrial markets, as well as adverse credit market conditions, can cause demand for our products to Economic downturns. The demand for our products is dependent on the general economy, which is in turn affeff cted by geopolitical conditions, the stability of the global credit markets, inflationary pressures, increasing interest rates, the industries in which our customers operate or serve, and other factors. Downturns in the general economy or in the construcrr materially decrease.

To date, our suppl y chain disrupt u rr Spending levels by customers.rr Rentals and sales of equipment to the construcrr constitute a significant portion of our total revenues. As a result, we depend upon customers in these businesses and their ability and willingness to rent or buy equipment. Accordingly, our business is impacted by fluctuations in customers’ spending levels and seasonality, as discussed in Item 1. tion industryrr and to industrial companies 30 • • • serr weathett Adverdd r. Adverse weather in a geographic region in which we operate may depress demand for equipment in that region.

As discussed in Item 1—Environmental and Safety Regulations and Item 1A— Climate Change and ESG Regul Risk Factors—"We could be adversely affeff cted by environmental and safety requirements and regulations, including those regarding climate change, which could subju ect us to increased operational costs that could materially and adversely impact our liquidity and operating results”, our facilities and operations are subju ect to comprehensive and frequently changing federal, state and local environmental and occupau tional health and safety laws. We have made, and will continue to make, capital and other expenditures to comply with environmental requirements. While we do not currently anticipate any material adverse effeff ct on our business, financial condition or competitive position as a result of our effort s to comply with such requirements, new or more stringent laws or regulations regarding in environmental and worker health and safety laws could affeff ct our operations and increase our operational and compliance expenditures. It is also possible that liabilities from newly-discovered non-compliance or contamination could have a material adverse effeff ct on our business, financial condition and results of operations. ff Critical Accounting Estimates We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The application of many accounting principles requires us to make assumptions, estimates and/or judgments that affeff ct the reported amounts of assets, liabia lities, revenues and expenses in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonabla e under the circumstances. These l results may change based on changing assumptions, estimates and/or judgments, however, are ofteff n subju ective and they and our actuat circumstances or changes in our analyses. If actuat l amounts are ultimately different from our estimates, the revisions are included in our results of operations for the period in which the actual amounts first become known. We believe the following critical accounting estimates could potentially producd e materially different results if we were to change underlying assumptions, estimates and/or judgments. See also Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies. Usefulff Lives of Rental Equipmi ent and Propertytt and Equipmi lives (generally three to ten years), afteff lifeff of rental equipment is determined based on our estimate of the period the asset will generate revenues, and the their estimated usefulff cost.

We may be required to change these estimates based on changes in our industryrr or other changing circumstances.

We depreciate rental equipment and property and equipment over r giving effeff ct to an estimated salvage value ranging from 0% to 25% of The amount of depreciation expense we record is dependent upon the estimated usefulff lives and the salvage values assigned to each categoryrr of rental equipment.

Depreciation expense on our rental fleet as of December 31, 2023 was approximately $347.0 million.

We believe that decreasing the lifeff of the other equipment by two years is an unreasonabla e estimate and would potentially lead to the decision to expense, rather than capitalize, that portion of the subju ect asset class. In general terms, a one-year increase in the estimated life across all classes of our rental equipment will give rise to an approximate decrease in our annual depreciation expense of approximately $19.2 million. Additionally, a one-year decrease in the estimated lifeff across all classes of our rental equipment (with the exception of other equipment as discussed above) will give rise to an approximate increase in our annual depreciation expense of approximately $84.1 million. l amount of depreciation Another assumption used in our calculation of depreciation expense is the estimated salvage value assigned to our earthmoving equipment. Based on our historical data and recent experience, we have used a 25% factor of the equipment’s original cost to estimate its salvage value. This factor is subju ective and subju ect to change in the future based upon actuat equipment. A change of 5%, either increase or decrease, in the estimated salvage value would result in a change in our annual depreciation expense of approximately $7.4 million. l results at the time we dispose of the Acquisiii tion Accounting. We have made a number of acquisitions in the past and we may continue to make additional acquisitions lly all of the rental equipment that we have acquired through business combinations have been in the future. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. Long-lived assets (principally rental equipment), goodwill and other intangible assets generally represent the largest component of our acquisitions. Historically, virtuat classified as “To be Used,” rather than as “To be Sold.” Rental equipment that we acquire and classify as “To be Used” is recorded at fair value and is valued utilizing either a cost or market approach, or a combination of these methods, depending on the asset being valued and the availabia lity of cost or market data. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the fair value of consideration transferff red over the net of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Such fair market value assessments require judgments and estimates that can be affeff cted by various factors over time, which may cause final amounts to differ materially from original estimates. The identification of assets acquired, inputs utilized for determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and applicable fair value methodologies, discussed more below, all include significant judgment. We have not changed our assumption methodologies during the current or prior period. In addition to long-lived fixed assets, we also acquire other assets and assume liabilities. These other assets and liabilities accounts receivabla e, accounts payabla e and other working capia tal items. typically include, but are not limited to, parts inventory,rr Because of their short-term nature, the fair values of these assets and liabilities generally approximate the carrying values reflected on the acquired entities balance sheets. However, when appropriate, we adjud st these carrying values for factors such as collectability and existence. The intangible assets that we have acquired generally consist primarily of the goodwill recognized. Depending upon the applicable purchase agreement and the particular facts and circumstances of the business acquired, we may identify other intangible assets, such as trade names or trademarks, noncompetition agreements and customer-related intangibles (specifically, customer relationships). A trademark has a fair value equal to the present value of the royalty income attributable to it. The royalty income attributable to a trademark represents the hypothetical cost savings that are derived from owning the trademark instead of paying royalties to license the trademark from another owner. When specificff ally negotiated by the parties in the applicable purchase agreements, we base the value of noncompetition agreements on the amounts assigned to them in the purchase agreements as these amounts represent the amounts negotiated in an arm’s length transaction. When not negotiated by the parties in the applicable purchase agreements, the fair value of noncompetition agreements is estimated based on an income approach since their values are representative of the current and future revenue and profitff erosion protection they provide. Customer relationships are generally valued based on an excess earnings or income approach with consideration to projected cash flows. Evaluation of Goodwill Impaim rment. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if triggering events occur or other impairment indicators arise that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carryirr ng amount. A triggering event analysis and identification may include judgments. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including: the identification of reporting units; assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units; assignment of goodwill to reporting units; determination of the fair value of each reporting unit; fair value methodologies and assumptions, and an assumption as to the form of the transaction in which the reporting unit would be acquired by a market participant (either a taxabla e or nontaxable transaction). Impairment of goodwill is evaluated at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment (i.e., a component). We have determined that each of our operating segments (Equipment Rentals, Sales of Rental Equipment, Sales of New Equipment, Parts, and Services) represents a reporting unit, resulting in five total reporting units. 32 As of December 31, 2023, our goodwill was comprised of the following carrying values (amounts in thousands): Reporting Unit Equipment Rentals .............................................................................................................................................. Sales of Rental Equipment.................................................................................................................................. Sales of New Equipment..................................................................................................................................... Parts Sales ........................................................................................................................................................... Services Revenues .............................................................................................................................................. Total Goodwill ................................................................................................................................................ $ $ Carrying Value at December 31, 2023 99,708 8,447 — — — 108,155 During 2023, based on our evaluation of our Parts Sales reporting unit and operating segment during the third quarter, we l revenue and earnings compared with our planned revenue and earnings utilized in our most recent quantitative identified a triggering event requiring an interim impairment test. This triggering event related to a sustained parts segment decline in volume and actuat goodwill impairment analysis following our business’s dispositions and strategic shiftff to be rental focused. No triggering event was identified related to our Equipment Rental and Sales of Rental Equipment reporting units. We estimated the fair value of our Parts Sales reporting unit by weighting results from the income approach and the market approach and concluded that our Parts Sales reporting unit had a fair value less than its carryirr ng value, resulting in a $5.7 million impairment charge. The impairment was largely due to a current year decrease in parts revenues as a result of our business’s strategic shiftff and recent dispositions. This revenue decline, combined with our forecasted parts revenues growth rate and operating results assumptions for the forecast period under the income approach, resulted in a fair value determination, that when combined with the weighted fair value of the reporting unit determined under the market approach, was less than the reporting unit’s carrying value. We performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment as of our annual testing date, October 1, 2023. We determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting units containing goodwill was not less than its carrying value and, thereforff e, did not perform the prescribed quantitative goodwill impairment test. We considered various factors in performing the qualitative test, including macroeconomic conditions, industryrr and market considerations, the overall financial performance of our reporting units, the Company’s stock price and the excess amount between our reporting unit’s fair value and carrying value as indicated on our most recent interim quantitative assessment. During 2022, we performed, as of October 1, our annual impairment testing date, a Step 0 qualitative assessment and determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting units containing goodwill was not less than its carrying value and, thereforff e, did not perform the prescribed quantitative Step 1 goodwill impairment test. We considered various factors in performing the qualitative test, including macroeconomic conditions, industryrr and market considerations, the overall financial performance of our reporting units, the Company’s stock price and the excess amount between our reporting unit’s fair value and carrying value as indicated on our most recent quantitative assessment. As of October 1, 2021, our annual impairment test date, we performed a Step 1 quantitative assessment of goodwill impairment for all reporting units containing goodwill. For these reporting units, we compared the carrying values of each reporting unit, inclusive of goodwill and definite-lived intangible assets, to its fair value. We estimated the fair value of these reporting units by weighting results from the income approach and the market approach, as further described below. Based on this quantitative test, we determined that our Equipment Rentals, Sales of Rental Equipment and Parts Sales reporting units were not impaired as of the October 1, 2021 annual impairment testing date as their respective fair values exceeded their respective carrying values by approximately 50%, 98% and 9%, respectively. Based on the excess of fair values over the carrying values, a sensitivity analysis completed on the assumptions utilized would not result in a varying conclusion of the goodwill quantitative assessment. For purpos r es of performing the quantitative impairment tests described above, we estimate the fair value of our reporting units by utilizing fair value techniques consistent with the income approach and market approach. When performing the income approach for each reporting unit, we use a discounted cash flow analysis based on our internal projected results of operations, weighted average cost of capia tal (“WACC”) and terminal value assumptions. Our cash flow projections are based on ten-year financial forecasts developed by management that include revenue projections, capital spending trends, and investment in working capia tal to suppor t anticipated revenue growth. The WACC is an estimate of the overall afteff business enterprise and represents the expected cost of new capia tal likely to be used by market participants. The WACC is used to discount our combined future cash flows. The inputs and variables used in determining the fair value of a reporting unit require management to make certain assumptions regarding the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes, as well as estimates of future cash flows. Our estimates regarding future cash flows are based on historical experience and projections of future operating performance, including revenues, margins and operating expenses. We also make certain forecasts about future economic conditions, interest rates and other market data. Many of the factors used in assessing fair value are outside the control of management, and these assumptions and estimates may change in future periods. Changes in assumptions or estimates could materially affeff ct the estimate of a reporting unit’s fair value, and thereforff e could affeff ct the likelihood and amount of potential impairment. Under the market approach, we compare the reporting units to selected reasonabla y similar (or “guideline”) publicly-traded companies. Under this method, r-tax rate of return required by equity and debt holders of a u 33 valuation multiples are: (i) derived from the operating data of selected guideline companies; (ii) evaluated and adjud sted based on the strengths and weaknesses of our reporting unit relative to the selected guideline companies; and (iii) applied to the operating data of our reporting unit to arrive at an indication of value. The application of the market approach results in an estimate of the price reasonabla y expected to be realized from the sale of the reporting unit. Income Taxesaa . The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with its wholly-owned subsu idiaries. The Company is a C-Corporation under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. We utilize the asset and liabia lity approach to measure deferred tax assets and liabilities based on temporaryrr differences existing at each balance sheet date using currently enacted tax rates. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabia lities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxabla e income in the years in which those temporaryrr differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effeff ct of a change in tax rate is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date of that tax rate. The Company recognizes the effeff ct of an income tax position only if it is more likely than not (a likelihood of greater than 50%) that such position will be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company recognizes both interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in net other income (expense). Our deferred tax calculation requires management to make certain estimates about future operations. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. These estimates involve judgment. There has been no change to the assumption methodology during the current or prior period. Our U.S. federal tax returns for 2020 and subsu equent years remain subju ect to examination by tax authorities. We are also subju ect to examination in various state jurisdictions for 2019 and subsu equent years. Results of Operations The tabla es included in the period-to-period comparisons below provide summaries of our revenues and gross profitff s for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The period-to-period comparisons of our financial results are not necessarily indicative of future results. All financial results and metrics discussed below are on a continuing operations basis. As discussed further in Note 2 and Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, on October 1, 2021, the Company sold its crane business and during the second quarter of 2022 the Company finalized closing adjud stments.

Based on availabla e evidence, both positive and negative, we believe it is more likely than not that our federal deferred tax assets at December 31, 2023 are fully realizable through future reversals of existing taxabla e temporaryrr differences and future taxabla e income. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we have a $3.0 million valuation allowance for certain state tax credits that may not be realized.

Senior Secured Creditdd Facilityii We and our subsu idiaries are parties to a $750.0 million Credit Facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as administrative agent, and the lenders named therein. At December 31, 2023, we had $181.6 million borrowed under the Credit Facility and we could borrow up to $556.0 million, which with cash and cash equivalents on hand amounted to a liquidity position of $564.5 million. On October 1, 2021, we sold our crane business and the disposition had no impact on our borrowing availabia lity. For further information on the sale of our crane business, see Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. We did not have any negative impacts to our liquidity position under the Credit Facility as a result of discontinued operations, nor do we have any covenant violations related to the Credit Facility. As of Februar ry 15, 2024, we had borrowings of $277.3 million outstanding under our Credit Facility leaving us with borrowing availabia lity of $460.3 million, as a result of $12.3 million of letters of credit outstanding under the facility. For additional information regarding our senior secured credit facility, see Note 10 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Cash Requirements Related to Operatiott ns Our principal sources of liquidity have been from cash provided by operating activities and the revenue from our rental operations and sales of rental fleet and new equipment, proceeds from the issuance of debt, and borrowings availabla e under the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2023, the Company held balances of cash and cash equivalents totaling $8.5 million. As of December 31, 2022, the Company held balances of cash and cash equivalents totaling $81.3 million. Our principal uses of cash and cash equivalents , purchases of rental fleet and historically have been to fund operating activities and working capia tal (including equipment inventory)rr property and equipment, opening new branch locations, fund payments due under facility operating leases and manufact urt er flooring ff plans payabla e, and to meet debt service requirements. In the future, we may pursue additional strategic acquisitions and seek to open new branch locations. The amount of our future capital expenditures will depend on a number of factors including general economic conditions and growth prospects. In response to changing economic conditions, we believe we have the flexibility to modify our capia tal expenditures by adjud sting them (either up or down) to match our actual performance. Our gross rental fleet capia tal expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were approximately $736.6 million and $507.8 million, respectively, including $74.7 million and $43.3 million, respectively, of non-cash transferff s from inventoryrr to rental fleet. This increase in rental fleet capia tal expenditures reflects our branch expansion growth strategy. Our gross property and equipment capital expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $83.9 million and $51.5 million, respectively. To service our debt, we will require a significant amount of cash. Our ability to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness (including the Credit Facility, the Senior Unsecured Notes and our other indebtedness), will depend upon our future operating performance and the availabia lity of borrowings under the Credit Facility and/or other debt and equity financing alternatives availabla e to us, which will be affeff cted by prevailing economic conditions and conditions in the global credit and capital markets, as well as financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Based on our current level of operations and given the current state of the capia tal markets, we believe our cash flow from operations, availabla e cash and cash equivalents and availabla e borrowings under the Credit Facility will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs for the foreseeabla e future, both in the short- term (over the next 12 months) and beyond. At December 31, 2023, we have cash and cash equivalents on hand of approximately $8.5 million. At December 31, 2023, we had availabla e borrowings of $556.0 million, net of $12.3 million of outstanding letters of credit and at December 31, 2022, we had availabla e borrowings of $739.4 million, net of $10.6 million of outstanding letters of credit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonabla e assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedurd es to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedurd es that respond to those risks. Such procedurd es included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonabla e basis for our opinion.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) Organization and Nature of Operations Founded in 1961, H&E Equipment Services, Inc. (or “the Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is one of the largest rental equipment companies in the nation, serving customers across 30 states. The Company’s fleet is versatile with an equipment mix comprised of aerial work platforms, earthmoving, material handling, and other general and specialty lines. H&E serves a diverse set of end markets in many high-growth geographies including branches throughout the Pacific Northwest, West Coast, Intermountain, Southwest, Gulf Coast, Southeast, Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. (2) Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements include the financial position and results of operations of H&E Equipment Services, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsu idiaries H&E Finance Corp., GNE Investments, Inc., Great Northern Equipment, Inc., H&E Califorff nia Holding, Inc., H&E Equipment Services (Califorff nia), LLC, H&E Equipment Services (Midwest), Inc. and H&E Equipment Services (Mid-Atlantic), Inc., collectively referred to herein as “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company.” On October 1, 2021, the Company sold its crane business (the “Crane Sale”) and during June 2022, closing adjud stments were finalized. The results of operations of the Crane Sale are reported in discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. All results and information in the consolidated financial statements are presented as continuing operations and exclude the Crane Sale unless otherwise noted specifically as discontinued operations. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows includes cash flows related to the discontinued operations and accordingly, cash flow amounts for discontinued operations are disclosed in Note 3 “Acquisitions and Dispositions”. For additional information, refer to Note 3. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements. Business combinations are included in the consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. The nature of our business is such that short-term obligations are typically met by cash flows generated from long-term assets. Consequently, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are presented on an unclassified basis. Use of Estimates We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires management to use its judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affeff ct the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. These assumptions and estimates could have a material effeff ct on our consolidated financial statements. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates. We review our estimates on an ongoing basis based on information currently availabla e, and changes in facts and circumstances may cause us to revise these estimates. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Income to conforff m to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on previously reported amounts. Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue in accordance with two different Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) standards: 1) Topic 606 and 2) Topic 842. Under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services red to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or is transferff services. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specifieff d in the contract with the customer, and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transferff good or service to a customer. Our contracts with customers generally do not include multiple performance obligations. We recognize revenue when we satisfyff a performance obligation by transferff revenue recognized refleff cts the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for such products or services. ring control over a product or service to a customer. The amount of a distinct 48 Under Topic 842, Leases, we account for equipment rental contracts as operating leases. We recognize revenue from equipment rentals in the period earned, regardless of the timing of billing to customers. A rental contract includes rates for daily, weekly or monthly use, and rental revenues are earned on a daily basis as rental contracts remain outstanding. Because the rental contracts can extend across multiple reporting periods, we record unbilled rental revenues and deferred rental revenues at the end of reporting periods so rental revenues earned is appropriately stated for the periods presented. The tabla es below summarize our revenues as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 by revenue type and by the applicable accounting standard (amounts in thousands).

We believe that the disaggregation of our revenues from contracts to customers as reflected above, coupled with further discussion below and the reporting segment in Note 16, depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenues and cash flows are affeff cted by economic factors. Nature of goods and services Lease revenues Topic 842 p Owned equipmi ent rentalsll : Owned equipment rentals represent revenues from renting equipment. We account for these rental contracts as operating leases. We recognize revenue from equipment rentals in the period earned, regardless of the timing of billing to customers. A rental contract includes rates for daily, weekly or monthly use, and rental revenues are earned on a daily basis as rental contracts remain outstanding. Our equipment is generally rented for short periods of time (less than a year). Because the rental contracts can extend across multiple reporting periods, we record unbilled rental revenues and deferred rental revenues at the end of reporting periods so rental revenues earned is appropriately stated for the periods presented. The lease terms are included in our contracts, and the determination of whether our contracts contain leases generally does not require significant assumptions or judgments. In some cases, a rental contract may contain a rental purchase option, whereby the customer has an option to purchase the rented equipment at the end of the term for a specifieff d price. Revenues related to the rental contract will be accounted for as an operating lease as the option to purchase is not reasonabla y certain to be exercised. Lessees do not provide residual value guarantees on rented equipment. Re-rent revenue: Re-rent revenue reflects revenues from equipment that we rent from vendors and then rent to our customers. We account for such rentals as sublu eases. The accounting for re-rent revenue is the same as the accounting for owned equipment rentals described above. Other equipmi ent rental revenue: Other equipment rental revenue is primarily comprised of (i) revenue from customers who purchase insurance to protect against potential damages or loss to the equipment they rent, (ii) environmental charges associated with the rental of equipment, and (iii) fuel recovery fees charged to customers. Fuel consumption charges are recognized upon return of the rental equipment when fuel consumption by the customer, if any, can be measured. Income from environmental fees and damage waiver insurance policies are recognized when earned over the period the equipment is rented. ) Revenues from contracts with customers (Topic 606) p ( Subsu tantially all of our revenues under Topic 606 are recognized at a point-in-time rather than over time. Owned equipmi ent rentals:ll An insignificant portion of our total equipment rental revenues are recognized pursuant to Topic 606 rather than pursuant to Topic 842. These revenues represent services performed by us in connection with the rental of equipment and are comprised of customer training fees on rented equipment and setupu and configff uration services on rental equipment. Revenues for these services are recognized upon completion of such services. See discussion above regarding rental revenues recognized pursuant to Topic 842. Deliveryr and pick-up: Delivery and pick-upu revenue associated with renting equipment is recognized when the service is performed. Sales of rental equipmi ent: Revenues from the sales of rental equipment are recognized at the time of deliveryrr to, or pick-upu by, the customer, which is when the customer obtains control of the promised good. Sales of new equipmi ent: Revenues from the sales of new equipment are recognized at the time of delivery to, or pick-upu by, the customer, which is when the customer obtains control of the promised good. Parts,tt service, and othett r: Revenues from the sales of equipment parts are recognized at the time of pick-upu by the customer for parts counter sales transactions. For parts that are shipped to a customer, we made an accounting policy election permitted by Topic 606 to treat such shipping activities as fulfilff lment costs, which results in the fees for shipping activities being included in the parts sales transaction price. Service revenues is derived primarily from maintenance and repair services to customers for equipment that we rent or sell and from customers owned equipment. We recognize services revenues at the time such services are completed, which is when the customer obtains control of the promised service. Other revenues relate to equipment suppor u provide to customers in connection with sales of rental and new equipment and parts and services revenues. t activities that we 50 Receivablesll and contratt ct assets and liabilit iett s ii We manage credit risk associated with our accounts receivabla es at the customer level. Because the same customers typically generate the revenues that are accounted for under both Topic 606 and Topic 842, the discussions below on credit risk and our allowances for doubtful accounts address our total revenues from Topic 606 and Topic 842. We believe concentration of credit risk with respect to our receivabla es is limited because our customer base is comprised of a large number of geographically diverse customers. Our largest customer accounted for less than four percent of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues for any of the three years ended December 31, 2023. We manage credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits and other monitoring procedurd es. Pursuant to Topic 842 and Topic 326 for rental and non-rental receivabla es, respectively, we maintain an allowance for doubtful tabla e forecasts, and our own judgment as to the likelihood of ultimate payment based accounts that reflects our estimate of our expected credit losses. Our allowance is estimated using a loss rate model based on delinquency. The estimated loss rate is based on our historical experience with specificff economic circumstances, reasonable and suppor u upon availabla e data. Our largest exposure to doubtful accounts is our rental operations, which as discussed above is accounted for under Topic 842 and as of December 31, 2023 represents 81% of our total revenues and an approximate corresponding percentage of our receivabla es, net and associated allowance for doubtful accounts. We perform credit evaluations of customers and establa ish credit limits based on reviews of our customers’ current credit information and payment histories. We believe our credit risk is somewhat mitigated by our geographically diverse customer base and our credit evaluation procedurd es. The actual rate of future credit losses, however, may not be similar to past experience. Our estimate of doubtful accounts could change based on changing circumstances, including changes in the economy or in the particular circumstances of individual customers. Accordingly, we may be required to increase or decrease our allowance for doubtful accounts. Bad debt expense as a percentage of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was approximately 0.3%, 0.3% and 0.2%, respectively. customers, our understanding of our current We do not have material contract assets, impairment losses associated therewith, or material contract liabia lities associated with contracts with customers. Our contracts with customers do not generally result in material amounts billed to customers in excess of recognizabla e revenue. We did not recognize material revenues during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 or 2021 that was included in the contract liabia lity balance as of the beginning of such periods. Perforff marr nce obligll atiott ns Most of our Topic 606 revenue is recognized at a point-in-time, rather than over time. Accordingly, in any particular period, we do not generally recognize a significff ant amount of revenue from performance obligations satisfieff d (or partially satisfied) in previous periods, and the amount of such revenue recognized during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was not material. Payma ent terms Our Topic 606 revenues do not include material amounts of variable consideration. Our payment terms are typically net 30 days, but can vary by the type and location of our customer and the products or services offeff payment is due is not significant. Our contracts do not generally include a significant financing component. Our contracts with customers do not generally result in significant obligations associated with returns, refunds or warranties. See above for a discussion of how we manage credit risk. red. The time between invoicing and when Sales tax amounts collected from customers are recorded on a net basis. Contratt ct coststt We do not recognize any assets associated with the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer (for example, a sales commission) that we expect to recover. Subsu tantially all of our revenue is recognized at a point-in-time or over a period of one year or less, and we use the practical expedient that allows us to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that we otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. Contratt ct estimaii tes and judgmegg ntstt Our revenues accounted for under Topic 606 generally do not require significant estimates or judgments as the transaction price is generally fixed and stated on our contracts. Our contracts generally do not include multiple performance obligations, and accordingly do not generally require estimates of the standalone selling price for each performance obligation. Also, our revenues do not include material amounts of variable consideration. Subsu tantially all of our revenues are recognized at a point-in-time and the timing of the satisfaction of the applicable performance obligations is readily determinable. As noted above, our Topic 606 revenues are generally recognized at the time of delivery to, or pick-upu by, the customer. 51 Discontinued Operations In determining whether a group of assets which has been disposed of (or is to be disposed of)ff should be presented as discontinued operations, the Company analyzes whether the group of assets being disposed of represents a component of the entity. A component typically has historic operations and cash flows that are clearly distinguishable for both operations and financial reporting purpos addition, the Company considers whether the disposal represents a strategic shiftff that has or will have a majoa r effeff ct on the Company’s operations and financial results. This strategic shiftff could include a disposal of a majoa r geographical area, a majoa r line of business, a majoa r equity method investment, or other majoa r parts of an entity. r es. In The Company reports financial results for discontinued operations separately from continuing operations to distinguish the financial impact of disposal transactions from ongoing operations. The assets and liabia lities of a discontinued operation held for sale, other than goodwill, are measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. When a portion of a reporting unit that constitutes a business is to be disposed of,ff the goodwill associated with that business is included in the carrying amount of the business based on the relative fair values of the business to be disposed of and the portion of the reporting unit that will be retained. See Note 3 for additional information. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Inventories We measure inventoryrr at the lower of cost or net realizable value; where net realizable value is considered to be estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonabla y predictabla e costs of completion, disposal and transportation.

Estimated Usefulff Life 5 years 39 years 5 years 3 years 7 years When events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of our rental fleet and property and equipment might not be recoverabla e, the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the assets are estimated and compared with the carryirr ng amount of the assets. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recorded. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the assets with their carrying amounts. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, as appropriate. In suppor we perform a review of our long-lived assets at the branch level relative to branch performance and conclude whether indicators of impairment exist. We did not record any impairment losses related to our rental equipment or property and equipment during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 or 2021. t of our review for indicators of impairment, u Acquisition Accounting We have made a number of acquisitions in the past and we may continue to make additional acquisitions in the future. The assets lly all of the rental equipment that we have acquired through business combinations have been classified as “To be acquired and liabia lities assumed are recorded based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. Long-lived assets (principally rental equipment), goodwill and other intangible assets generally represent the largest component of our acquisitions. Historically, virtuat Used,” rather than as “To be Sold.” Rental equipment that we acquire and classify as “To be Used” is recorded at fair value and is valued utilizing either a cost or market approach, or a combination of these methods, depending on the asset being valued and the availabia lity of cost or market data. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the fair value of consideration transferff fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Such fair market value assessments require judgments and estimates that can be affeff cted by various factors over time, which may cause final amounts to differ materially from original estimates. The identification of assets acquired, inputs utilized for determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and applicable fair value methodologies all include significant judgment. red over the net of the In addition to long-lived fixed assets, we also acquire other assets and assume liabilities. These other assets and liabilities accounts receivabla e, accounts payabla e and other working capia tal items. typically include, but are not limited to, parts inventory,rr Because of their short-term nature, the fair values of these assets and liabilities generally approximate the carrying values reflected on the acquired entities balance sheets. However, when appropriate, we adjud st these carrying values for factors such as collectability and existence. The intangible assets that we have acquired consist primarily of the goodwill recognized. Depending upon the applicable purchase agreement and the particular facts and circumstances of the business acquired, we may identify other intangible assets, such as trade names or trademarks, noncompetition agreements and customer-related intangibles (specifically, customer relationships). A trademark has a fair value equal to the present value of the royalty income attributable to it. The royalty income attributable to a trademark represents the hypothetical cost savings that are derived from owning the trademark instead of paying royalties to license the trademark from another owner. The fair value of noncompetition agreements is estimated based on an income approach since their values are representative of the current and future revenue and profitff erosion protection they provide. Customer relationships are generally valued based on an excess earnings or income approach with consideration to projected cash flows. Goodwill Goodwill is recorded as the excess of the consideration transferff red plus the fair value of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired. We evaluate goodwill for impairment at least annually, as of October 1, or more frequently if triggering events occur or other impairment indicators arise that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Impairment of goodwill is evaluated at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment (i.e., before aggregation or combination), or one level below an operating segment (i.e., a component). A component of an operating segment is a reporting unit if the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is availabla e and segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. We have identifieff d that our five operating segments (Equipment Rentals, Sales of Rental Equipment, Sales of New Equipment, Parts Sales and Service Revenues) each represent a reporting unit. Topic 350 consists of a one-step assessment to determine whether goodwill is impaired requiring an entity to compare each reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill, with its fair value. An entity should recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to 53 the reporting unit. An entity also has an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. Considerable judgment is required by management in performing the qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Based on our evaluation of our Parts Sales reporting unit and operating segment during the third quarter of 2023, we identifieff d a triggering event requiring an interim impairment test. This triggering event related to a sustained parts segment decline in volume and l revenue and earnings compared with our planned revenue and earnings utilized in our most recent quantitative goodwill actuat impairment analysis following our dispositions and strategic shiftff to be rental focused. Additional information on our dispositions is included in Footnote 3. No triggering event was identifieff d related to our Equipment Rental and Sales of Rental Equipment reporting units. We estimated the fair value of our Parts Sales reporting unit by weighting results from the income approach and the market approach and concluded that our Parts Sales reporting unit had a fair value less than its carrying value, resulting in a $5.7 million impairment charge. The impairment was largely due to a current year decrease in parts revenues as a result of our strategic shiftff and recent dispositions. This revenue decline, combined with our forecasted parts revenues growth rate and operating results assumptions for the forecast period under the income approach, resulted in a fair value determination, that when combined with the weighted fair value of the reporting unit determined under the market approach, was less than the reporting unit’s carrying value. We performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment as of our annual testing date, October 1, 2023. We determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting units containing goodwill was not less than its carrying value and, thereforff e, did not perform the prescribed quantitative goodwill impairment test. We considered various factors in performing the qualitative test, including macroeconomic conditions, industryrr and market considerations, the overall financial performance of our reporting units, the Company’s stock price and the excess amount between our reporting unit’s fair value and carrying value as indicated on our most recent interim quantitative assessment. We performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment as of our annual testing date, October 1, 2022. We determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting units containing goodwill was not less than its carrying value and, thereforff e, did not perform the prescribed quantitative goodwill impairment test. We considered various factors in performing the qualitative test, including macroeconomic conditions, industryrr and market considerations, the overall financial performance of our reporting units, the Company’s stock price and the excess amount between our reporting unit’s fair value and carrying value as indicated on our most recent quantitative assessment. We performed a quantitative assessment of goodwill impairment as of our annual testing date, October 1, 2021, for all reporting units containing goodwill. For these reporting units, we compared the carrying values of each reporting unit, inclusive of goodwill, if applicable, and definite-lived intangible assets, to its fair value. We estimated the fair value of these reporting units by weighting results from the income approach and the market approach. Based on this quantitative test, we determined that our Equipment Rentals, Sales of Rental Equipment and Parts Sales reporting units were not impaired as of October 1, 2021 as their respective fair values exceeded their respective carrying values by approximately 50%, 98% and 9%, respectively. Significant assumptions inherent in the valuation methodologies for goodwill are employed and include, prospective financial information, growth rates, terminal value, discount rates, and comparable multiples from publicly traded companies in our industry.rr The inputs and variables used in determining the fair value of a reporting unit require management to make certain assumptions regarding the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes, as well as estimates of future cash flows. Our estimates regarding future cash flows are based on historical experience and projections of future operating performance, including revenues, margins and operating expenses. We also make certain forecasts about future economic conditions, such as the timing and duration of economic expansion or contraction cycles in our business, interest rates, and other market data. Many of the factors used in assessing fair value are outside the control of management, and these assumptions and estimates may change in future periods. An adverse change in any of the assumptions used in our impairment testing (e.g., projected revenue and profit,ff could affeff ct our fair value measurements and result in future impairments. If we are unabla e to achieve the financial forecasts used in our impairment analysis, we may also be required to record an impairment charge to our goodwill. discount rates, industryrr price multiples, etc.) The impairment charge described above is a non-cash item and does not affeff ct our cash flows, liquidity or borrowing capaa city under the Credit Facility, and the impairment charge is excluded from our financial results in evaluating our financial covenants under the Credit Facility.

Leases The Company as Lessee We determine whether an arrangement is a lease at the inception of the arrangement based on the terms and conditions in the contract. A contract contains a lease if there is an identifieff d asset and we have the right to control the asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease arrangements can take several forms. Some arrangements are clearly within the scope of lease accounting, such as a real estate contract that provides an explicit contractuat exchange for consideration. However, the right to use an asset can also be conveyed through arrangements that are not leases in form, such as leases embedded within service and suppl determine if an identified asset is present, if subsu tantive subsu titution rights are present, and if the arrangement provides the customer control of the asset. y contracts. We analyze all arrangements with potential embedded leases to l right to use a building for a specified period of time in u Our lease portfolff io is subsu tantially comprised of operating leases related to leases of real estate and improvements at our branch locations. From time to time, we may also lease various types of small equipment and vehicles. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an individual asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabia lities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide the lessor’s implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments by assuming the rate for a fully collateralized and amortizing loan with the same term as the lease. Lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain those options will be exercised. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, we record the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. Many of our leases include rental escalation clauses, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into our determination of lease payments when such renewal options and/or termination options are reasonabla y certain of exercise. We do not separate lease and non- lease components of contracts. Variable lease payments, which represent lease payments that vary due to changes in facts or circumstances occurring afteff r the commencement date other than the passage of time, are expensed in the period in which the obligation for these payments was incurred. A ROU asset is subju ect to the same impairment guidance as assets categorized as plant, property, and equipment. As such, any impairment loss on ROU assets is presented in the same manner as an impairment loss recognized on other long-lived assets. A lease modification is a change to the terms and conditions of a contract that change the scope or consideration of a lease. For example, a change to the terms and conditions to the contract that adds or terminates the right to use one or more underlying assets, or extends or shortens the contractuat l lease term, is a modification. Depending on facts and circumstances, a lease modification may be accounted as either: (1) the original lease plus the lease of a separate asset(s) or (2) a modified lease. A lease will be remeasured if there are changes to the lease contract that do not give rise to a separate lease. See Note 11 related to the required lease disclosures. The Company as Lessor Our equipment rental business involves rental contracts with customers whereby we are the lessor in the transaction and thereforff e, such transactions are subju ect to Topic 842. We account for such rental contracts as operating leases. We recognize revenue from equipment rentals in the period earned, regardless of the timing of billing to customers. A rental contract includes rates for daily, weekly or monthly use, and rental revenues are earned on a daily basis as rental contracts remain outstanding. Because the rental contracts can extend across multiple reporting periods, we record unbilled rental revenues and deferred rental revenues at the end of reporting periods so rental revenues earned is appropriately stated for the periods presented. 56 Deferred Financing Costs and Initial Purchasers’ Discounts Deferred financing costs include legal, accounting and other direct costs incurred in connection with the issuance and amendments thereto, of the Company’s debt. These costs are amortized over the terms of the related debt using the straight-line method which approximates amortization using the effeff ctive interest method. Initial purchasers’ discount and bond premium is the differential between the price paid to an issuer for the new issue and the red to the investing public. The amortization expense of prices (below and above, respectively) at which the securities are initially offeff deferred financing costs and bond premium and accretion of initial purchasers’ discounts are included in interest expense as an overall cost of the related financings. Such costs are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liabia lity, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. Reserves for Claims We are exposed to various claims relating to our business, including those for which we provide self-iff nsurance. Claims for which we self-iff nsure include: (1) workers compensation claims; (2) general liabia lity claims by third parties for injun ry or property damage caused by our equipment or personnel; (3) automobile liabia lity claims; and (4) employee health insurance claims. Losses that exceed our deductibles and self-iff nsured retentions are insured through various commercial lines of insurance policies. These types of claims may take a subsu tantial amount of time to resolve and, accordingly, the ultimate liabia lity associated with a particular claim, including claims incurred but not reported as of a period-end reporting date, may not be known for an extended period of time. Our methodology for developing self-iff nsurance reserves is based on management estimates. Our estimation process considers, among other matters, the cost of known claims over time, cost inflation and incurred but not reported claims. These estimates may change based on, among other things, changes in our claim historyrr or receipt of additional information relevant to assessing the claims. Further, these estimates may prove to be inaccurate due to factors such as adverse judicial determinations or other claim settlements at higher than estimated amounts. Accordingly, we may be required to increase or decrease our reserve levels. At December 31, 2023, our claims reserves related to workers compensation, general liability and automobile liabia lity, which are included in “Accruer d expenses payabla e and other liabilities” in our consolidated balance sheets, totaled $9.9 million and our health insurance reserves totaled $2.3 million. At December 31, 2022, our claims reserves related to workers compensation, general liability and automobile liabia lity totaled $9.1 million and our health insurance reserves totaled $1.9 million. Advertising Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $1.1 million, $1.0 million and $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income Taxes The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with its wholly-owned subsu idiaries. The Company is a C-Corpor under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. We utilize the asset and liabia lity approach to measure deferred tax assets and liabia lities based on temporaryrr differences existing at each balance sheet date using currently enacted tax rates. Deferred tax assets and liabia lities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabia lities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabia lities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxabla e income in the years in which those temporaryrr differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effeff ct of a change in tax rate is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date of that rate. ration The Company recognizes the effeff ct of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax provisions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company recognizes both interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in net other income (expense). Our deferred tax calculation requires management to make certain estimates about future operations. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transferff a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The FASB fair value measurement guidance establa ished a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three broad levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets and liabia lities in active markets or inputs that are observabla e for the asset or liabia lity, either directly or indirectly 57 Level 3 – Unobservabla e inputs for which little or no market data exists, thereforff e requiring a company to develop its own assumptions The carrying value of financial instruments reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, Credit Facility, accounts payabla e and accruer d expenses payabla e and other liabia lities approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term nature, maturity or market interest rate of these financial instruments. The Company’s outstanding obligations on its Credit Facility are deemed to be at fair value as the interest rates are variable and consistent with prevailing rates, which are considered Level 2 inputs. The carryirr ng amounts and fair values of our other financial instruments subju ect to fair value disclosures as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are presented in the tabla e below (amounts in thousands). ff Manufact Senior unsecured notes due 2028 with interest computed at 3.875% (Level 2) .................... urt er flooring plans payabla e with interest computed at 8.75% (Level 3)................. $ ff Manufact Senior unsecured notes due 2028 with interest computed at 3.875% (Level 2) .................... urt er flooring plans payabla e with interest computed at 7.75% (Level 3)................. $ December 31, 2023 Carrying Amount Fair Value 2,708 1,242,852 $ 2,490 1,137,170 December 31, 2022 Carrying Amount Fair Value 422 1,241,409 $ 392 1,070,088 At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the fair value of our senior unsecured notes due 2028 (the “Senior Unsecured Notes”), respectively, were based on quoted bond trading market prices for those notes. For our Level 3 unobservabla e inputs, we calculate a discount rate for our manufacturt er flooring plans payabla e based on the U.S. prime rate plus the applicable margin on our Credit Facility. The discount rate is disclosed in the above tabla e. The assets collateralized against the manufact approximate its carryirr ng value. urt er flooring plans payabla e ff During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no transferff s of financial assets or liabilities in or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basisii Our non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment, are adjud sted to fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized or the underlying investment is sold. Such fair value measurements are based predominately on Level 3 inputs. The result of our third quarter 2023 goodwill impairment quantitative test indicated that the fair value of the Parts Sales reporting unit was less than the carrying value of the reporting unit, resulting in a goodwill impairment of $5.7 million. Concentrations of Credit and Supplier Risk Financial instruments that potentially subju ect the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash deposits and trade accounts receivabla e. Credit risk can be negatively impacted by adverse changes in the economy or by disrupt markets. r ions in the credit The Company maintains its cash deposits with establa ished commercial banks. At times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and do not believe that we are exposed to any significant credit risk associated with our cash deposits. We believe that credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is somewhat mitigated by our large number of geographically diverse customers and our credit evaluation procedurd es. Although generally no collateral is required, when feasible, mechanics’ liens are filed and personal guarantees are signed to protect the Company’s interests. We maintain reserves for potential losses. We record trade accounts receivabla es at sales value and establa ish specific reserves for certain customer accounts identifieff d as known collection problems due to insolvency, disputes or other collection issues. The amounts of the specificff reserves estimated by management are determined by a loss rate model based on delinquency, as further described above in receivabla es and contract assets and liabilities. We purchase a significant amount of equipment from leading, nationally-known original equipment manufacff turers. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we purchased appr John Deere, and SkyTkk principal product categories, termination of one or more of our relationships with any of our majoa r suppl rak). We believe that while there are alternative sources of suppl turers (JCB, Skyjkk ack, Sany, y for the equipment we purchase in each of the iers of equipment could have oximately 52.8% of our equipment from five manufacff u u a 58 a material adverse effeff ct on our business, financial condition or results of operation if we were unabla e to obtain adequate or timely rental equipment. Income (loss) per Share Income (loss) per common share for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The effeff cts of potentially dilutive securities that are anti-dilutive are not included in the computation of diluted income (loss) per share. We include all common shares granted under our incentive compensation plan which remain unvested (“restricted common shares”) and contain non-forfeitabla e rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid (“participating securities”), in the number of shares outstanding in our basic and diluted EPS calculations using the two-class method. All of our restricted common shares are currently participating securities. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings allocated 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, distributed and undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and restricted common shares based on the total weighted average shares outstanding during the period. The number of restricted common shares outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 were less than 1% of total outstanding shares for each of the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 and consequently, were immaterial to the basic and diluted EPS calculations. Thereforff e, use of the two-class method had no impact on our basic and diluted EPS calculations as presented for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. The following tabla e sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share for the years ended December 31, (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts): 2023 2022 2021 Net income from continuing operations ............................................................ $ Net income (loss) from discontinued operations ............................................... $ Net income......................................................................................................... $ 169,293 $ — $ $ 169,293 133,694 $ (1,524) $ $ 132,170 Weighted average number of common shares outstanding: Basic...............................................................................................................

Segment Reporting We have five reportabla e segments. We derive our revenues from five principal business activities: (1) equipment rentals; (2) sales of rental equipment; (3) sales of new equipment; (4) parts sales; and (5) repair and maintenance services. These segments are based upon how we allocate resources and assess performance. See Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements regarding our segment information. 59 Recent Accounting Pronouncements Pronouncements Not Yet Adopt dd ed Segment Reporting In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportabla e Segment Disclosures, which improves the disclosures about a public entity’s reportabla e segments and addresses requests for additional, more detailed information about a reportabla e segment’s expenses. The amendments in this ASU require disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis for all public entities. The amendments are effeff ctive for fiscal years beginning afteff 2024. ASU 2023-07 became effeff ctive on January 1, 2024 and are not expected to have an impact on our financial statements, but will result in expanded reportable segment disclosures. r December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning afteff r December 15, Income Taxes In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, categories in the rate reconciliation, provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a which should improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The ASU requires that public entities on an annual basis disclose specificff quantitative threshold and the following information about income taxes paid: the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign taxes and the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by individual jurisdictions. Lastly, the amendments in this ASU require that entities disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign. ASU 2023-09 becomes effeff ctive January 1, 2025 and are not expected to have an impact on our financial statements, but will result in expanded tax disclosures. Recently Adopt dd ed Accounting Pronouncements Reference Rate Reform On January 1, 2023 we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effeff cts of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provided optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential burden in accounting for or recognizing the effeff cts of reference rate reform, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offeff limited to the interest expense and certain fees we incur on balances outstanding under our Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”).

(d/bdd /a Giffin Equipment) (“Giffin”), an equipment rental company with three branches located in California. The acquisition expands our presence in the California market. The aggregate cash consideration paid was approximately $31.3 million. The acquisition and related fees and expenses were funded from availabla e cash and borrowings. The following tabla e summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabia lities assumed as of the acquisition date.

The level of goodwill that resulted from the Giffin acquisition is primarily reflective of Giffin’s going-concern value, the value of assembled workforce, new customer relationships expected to arise from the acquisition and expected synergies from combining operations. We currently expect the goodwill recognized to be 100% deductible for income tax purpos es. r Total acquisition costs were $0.3 million and included within selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Income during the year ended December 31, 2023. Since our acquisition of Giffin on November 1, 2023, significant amounts of equipment rental fleet have been moved between H&E locations and the acquired locations, and it is impractical to reasonabla y estimate the amount of Giffin revenues and earnings since the acquisition date. The assets and liabilities were recorded as of November 1, 2023 and the results of operations are included in the Company's consolidated results as of that date. 2022 Acquisiii tion One Source Equipment Rentals, Inc. Effeff ctive October 1, 2022, we acquired 100% of the equity of One Source Equipment Rentals, Inc. (“OSR”), an equipment rental company with ten branches located in the Midwest. The acquisition expands our presence in the surrounding market, including initial locations in Illinois, Indiana, and Kentuct ky. The aggregate cash consideration paid was approximately $136.7 million. The acquisition and related fees and expenses were funded from availabla e cash. Customaryrr closing adjud stments were finalized during the first quarter of 2023 and the update of a tax estimate upon filing the final tax returns concluded during the third quarter of 2023.

Included in the total goodwill amount of $39.5 million is approximately $0.8 million of accruer d purchase price consideration to be paid to the sellers pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement among the parties named thereto. The level of goodwill that resulted from the OSR acquisition is primarily reflective of OSR’s going-concern value, the value of assembled workforce, new customer relationships expected to arise from the acquisition and expected synergies from combining operations. Total acquisition costs were $0.8 million and included within selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Income during the year ended December 31, 2022. Since our acquisition of OSR on October 1, 2022, significant amounts of equipment rental fleet have been moved between H&E locations and the acquired locations, and it is impractical to reasonabla y estimate the amount of OSR revenues and earnings since the acquisition date. The assets and liabilities were recorded as of October 1, 2022 and the results of operations are included in the Company's consolidated results as of that date. Pro forma financial infon rmation (unaudited) We completed the OSR acquisition effeff ctive October 1, 2022. Thereforff e, our reported Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2022 does not include OSR for the period from January 1, 2022 through September 30, 2022. Additionally, we completed the Giffin acquisition effeff ctive November 1, 2023. Thereforff e, our reported Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2023 does not include Giffin for the period from January 1, 2023 through October 31, 2023.

The Company executed the transaction closing on October 1, 2021, subju ect to customaryrr closing conditions, including regulatoryrr approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, resulting in proceeds of $135.9 million, which was subju ect to finalization of adjud stments. Closing adjud stments of $1.9 million were recorded as a loss from discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statement of Income during the second quarter of 2022. This disposition represents the Company’s strategic shiftff to a pure-play rental business. In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, the Company ceased recording depreciation and amortization for Crane Sale related rental fleet, property, plant and equipment, and right of use lease assets upon qualifyiff ng as held for sale. In accordance with ASC 205-20, the Company determined that discontinued operations presentation was met during the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. As part of the divestiturt e, we entered into a transition services agreement with the buyer to assist them in the transition of certain functions, including, but not limited to, information technology, accounting and human resources for a period of sixty days up to six months. Aside from these customaryrr transition services, there will be no continuing involvement with the crane business afteff r its disposal. The Company reported financial results of the crane business within all of our segments: equipment rentals, sales of rental equipment, sales of new equipment, parts sales and service revenues. Additionally, the crane business was included within the equipment rental component 2, sales of rental equipment, sales of new equipment, parts sales and service revenues goodwill reporting units. As a result of the agreement to sell the Company’s crane business, its results are reported separately as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. As permitted, the Company elected not to adjud st the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to exclude cash flows attributable to discontinued operations.

(7) Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite employee service period (generally the vesting period of the grant). The estimated forfeiturt e rate is based on historical experience and revised, if necessary, in subsu equent periods for actuat l forfeitures. Our 2016 Stock-Based Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2016 Plan”) is administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, which selects persons eligible to receive awards and determines the number of shares and/or options subju ect to each award, the terms, conditions, perforff mance measures, if any, and other provisions of the award. Under the 2016 Plan, we may offeff r deferred shares or restricted shares of our common stock and grant options, including both incentive stock options and nonqualifieff d stock options, to purchase shares of our common stock. Shares availabla e for future stock-based payment awards under our 2016 Plan were 743,877 shares of common stock as of December 31, 2023. 65 Non-vested Stoctt k From time to time, we issue shares of non-vested stock typically with vesting terms of three years.

The aggregate amounts outstanding as of December 31, 2023 under both the Credit Facility and our Senior Secured Notes (Note 9) of $1,431.6 million mature during 2028. (11) Leases We use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value, when availabla e, however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Thereforff e, we estimate our IBR to discount the lease payments based on information availabla e at lease commencement. Our IBR represents the rate we would expect to pay under a fully collateralized rate and amortizing loan with the same term as the lease. At December 31, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was approximately 7.5 years and for finance leases was approximately 8.6 years. The weighted average discount rate for operating and finance leases was approximately 6.4% and 5.9%, respectively, at December 31, 2023. At December 31, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was approximately 8.0 years and for finance leases was approximately 9.5 years. The weighted average discount rate for operating and finance leases was approximately 6.3% and 5.0%, respectively, at December 31, 2022.

We also had state income tax credits of $10.4 million that expire in varying amounts from 2024 to 2033. Management has concluded that it is more likely than not that the federal deferred tax assets are fully realizable through future reversals of existing taxabla e temporaryrr differences and future taxabla e income. Thereforff e, a valuation allowance is not required to reduce those deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2023. However, as of December 31, 2023, we have a valuation allowance of $3.0 million for certain state tax credits that are expected to expire prior to utilization.

To the extent we incur interest income, interest expense, or penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits, it will be recorded within net other income (expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The amount of interest and penalties recorded related to unrecognized income tax benefits is $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. We do not expect our unrecognized tax benefits to change materially in the next twelve months. Our U.S. federal tax returns for 2020 and subsu equent years remain subju ect to examination by tax authorities. We are also subju ect to examination in various state jurisdictions for 2019 and subsu equent years. (13) Commitments and Contingencies Legal Matters From time to time, we are involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business, including claims for which we retain portions of the losses through the application of deductibles and self-iff nsured retentions, or self-iff nsurance. Losses that exceed our deductibles and self-iff nsured retentions are insured through various commercial lines of insurance policies. In the opinion of management, afteff material adverse effeff ct on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. r consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these various matters will not have a Letters of Credit The Company had outstanding standby letters of credit issued under its Credit Facility totaling $12.3 million as of December 31, 2023 and $10.6 million as of December 31, 2022. The letters of credit expire in May 2024 and are expected to be renewed for similar one-year terms. (14) Employee Retirement Benefit Plans We offeff r subsu tantially all of our non-union employees’ participation in a qualified 401(k)/profit-sharing plan in which we match employee contributions up to predetermined limits for qualifieff d employees as defined by the plan. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and for both continuing and discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2021, we contributed to the plan, net of employee forfeitures, $5.4 million, $4.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. We contribute to the Pension Trusrr t Fund Operating Engineers Annuity Plan (EIN: 94-6090764, Plan No. 002), a multi-employer pension plan (“the Plan”), under the terms of a Collective Bargaining Agreement (“CBA”) that expires on October 31, 2025, and covers our union-represented employees and requires contribution amounts as set forth within the CBA. The Company contributed approximately $0.4 million in each of the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 and the Company has paid no surcharges in any period presented. These contributions represent less than five percent of the Plan’s total contributions in 2022. As of the date that our 2023 consolidated financial statements were issued, the Plan’s Form 5500 was not availabla e for the Plan year ended December 31, 2023. The risks of participating in a multi-employer pension plan is different from the risks associated with single-employer plans in the following respects. a) Assets contributed to the multi-employer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers. b) c) If a participating employer stops contributing to the Plan, the unfunde remaining participating employers. ff d obligations of the plan may be borne by the If we choose to stop participating in the Plan, we may be required to pay the Plan an amount based on the unfunde d statust of the plan, referred to as withdrawal liabia lity. ff The Plan has a green zone statust as of December 31, 2022, the most recent date for which a statust determination has been made. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 ranks the funded statust projected funding. A plan is in the Red Zone (Critical) if it has a current funded percentage less than 65 percent. A plan is in the Yellow Zone (Endangered) if it has a current funded percentage of less than 80 percent or projects a credit balance deficit within seven years. A plan is in the Green Zone (Healthy) if it has a current funded percentage greater than 80 percent and does not have a projected credit balance deficit within seven years. The zone statust is based on the Plan’s year-end and is based on information that we received from the Plan and is certified by the Plan’s actuat ry. The Company currently has no intention of withdrawing from the Plan. of multi-employer pension plans depending upon a plan’s current and 71 (15) Related Party Transactions Mr. John M. Engquist, who has served as the Company’s Executive Chairman of the Board for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, has a 48.0% ownership interest in Perkins-McKenzie Insurance Agency, Inc. (“Perkins-McKenzie”), an insurance brokerage firm. Perkins-McKenzie brokers a subsu tantial portion of our commercial liabia lity insurance. As the broker, Perkins-McKenzie receives from our insurance provider as a commission a portion of the premiums we pay to the insurance provider. Commissions paid to Perkins-McKenzie on our behalf as insurance broker totaled approximately $1.2 million, $1.1 million and $0.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We purchase products and services from, and sell products and services to, B-C Equipment Sales, Inc., in which Mr. Engquist has a 50% ownership interest.

(16) Segment Information We have identifieff d five reportabla e segments: equipment rentals, sales of rental equipment, sales of new equipment, parts sales and service revenues. These segments are based upon revenue streams and how management of the Company allocates resources and assesses performance. Our non-segmented other revenues and costs relate primarily to ancillary charges associated with equipment repair services, and are not generally allocated to the segments. There were no sales between segments for any of the periods presented. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as well as all other income and expense items below gross profitff are not generally allocated to our reportabla e segments. We do not compile discrete financial information by our segments other than the information presented below.

(17) Subsequent Events Effeff ctive January 1, 2024, afteff r the period covered by this report, we completed the acquisition of Precision Rentals (“Precision”) for a purchase price of $117.6 million in cash, before customaryrr adjud stments. Precision is a provider of non-residential construcr and industrial equipment and expands our presence with two branch locations operating in Arizona and Colorado. The acquisition and related fees and expenses were funded using availabla e cash and borrowings. As of Februarr fair value of the Precision purchase price had yet to be completed and consequently, including such disclosures in this annual report on Form 10-K is impractical. Disclosure of the allocation of the purchase price to the Precision balance sheet line items and the pro forma presentation reflecting the impact of the acquisition will be disclosed in our subsu equent Form 10-Q filing. ry 22, 2024, a preliminaryrr allocation of the tion On Februar business on Februar ry 9, 2024, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.275 per share to stockholders of record as of the close of ry 23, 2024, which is to be paid on March 15, 2024. 73 Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedurd es that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or furnishes under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specifieff d in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Offiff cer and Chief Financial Offiff cer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial disclosure. Our Chief Executive Offiff cer and Chief Financial Offiff cer (our principal executive offiff cer and principal financial offiff cer, respectively) have evaluated the effeff ctiveness of our disclosure controls and procedurd es (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive offiff cer and principal financial offiff cer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our current disclosure controls and procedurd es were effeff ctive. The design of any system of control is based upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated objectives under all future events, no matter how remote, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedurd es may not deteriorate. Because of its inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedurd es may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Accordingly, even effeff ctive disclosure controls and procedurd es can only provide reasonabla e assurance of achieving their control objectives. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f))ff that occurred during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affeff cted, or are reasonabla y likely to materially affeff ct, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. 74 Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting The management of H&E Equipment Services, Inc. is responsible for establa ishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonabla e assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external rr purpos es in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Thereforff e, even those systems determined to be effeff ctive can provide only reasonabla e assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Any evaluation or projection of effeff ctiveness to future periods is also subju ect to risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedurd es may deteriorate. Under the supeu rvision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Offiff cer and Chief Financial Offiff cer, we conducted an evaluation of the effeff ctiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on the framework in Internal Control – Integre ated Frameworkrr (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on that evaluation, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting was effeff ctive based on these criteria. The effeff ctiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, has been audited by BDO USA, P.C., an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included herein.

Magee Chief Financial Offiff cer and Secretaryrr 75 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Shareholders and Board of Directors H&E Equipment Services, Inc. Baton Rouge, Louisiana Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited H&E Equipment Services, Inc.’s (the “Company’s”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria establa ished in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effeff ctive internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on the COSO criteria. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Publu ic Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes and schedule of valuation and qualifyiff ng accounts and our report dated Februarr ry 22, 2024 expressed an unqualifieff d opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effeff ctive internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effeff ctiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Item 9A, Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonabla e assurance about whether effeff ctive internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effeff ctiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedurd es as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonabla e basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonabla e assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purpos es in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedurd es that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonabla e detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonabla e assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonabla e assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effeff ct on the financial statements. r Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effeff ctiveness to future periods are subju ect to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedurd es may deteriorate. /s/ BDO USA, P.C.

Supplu emental Schedules Non-GAAP Financial Measures This Annual Report contains certain non-GAAP measures (EBITDA and Adjud sted EBITDA) as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). We define Adjud sted EBITDA for the periods presented as EBITDA adjud sted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense, the impairment of goodwill, merger and other and the loss on early extinguishment of debt. u We use EBITDA and Adjud sted EBITDA in our business operations to, among other things, evaluate the performance of our business, develop budgets and measure our performance against those budgets. We also believe that analysts and investors use EBITDA and Adjud sted EBITDA as suppl emental measures to evaluate a company’s overall operating performance. However, EBITDA and Adjud sted EBITDA have material limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation, or as subsu titutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. We consider them usefulff tools to assist us in evaluating performance because it eliminates items related to components of our capital structure, taxes and non-cash charges. The items that we have eliminated in determining EBITDA for the periods presented are interest expense, income taxes, depreciation of fixed assets (which includes rental equipment and property and equipment) and amortization of intangible assets and, in the case of Adjud sted EBITDA, any other non- recurring items described above applicable to the particular period. However, some of these eliminated items are significff ant to our business. For example, (i) interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate revenue because we incur a significant amount of interest expense related to our outstanding indebtedness; (ii) payment of income taxes is a necessary element of our costs; and (iii) depreciation is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate revenue because rental equipment is the single largest component of our total assets and we recognize a significant amount of depreciation expense over the estimated usefulff lifeff of this equipment. Any measure that eliminates components of our capital structure and costs associated with carrying significant amounts of fixed assets on our consolidated balance sheet has material limitations as a performance measure. In light of the foregoing limitations, we do not rely solely on EBITDA and Adjud sted EBITDA as performance measures and also consider our GAAP results. EBITDA and Adjud sted EBITDA are not measurements of our financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered alternatives to net income, operating income or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Because EBITDA and Adjud sted EBITDA may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in the table below. H&E Equipment Services, Inc.
