Latest analysis

Updated Nov 4, 2026

GXO Q3 2026 revenue +5.7% YoY on broad-based growth in tech and defense, but direct costs accelerate.

GXO Logistics delivered Q3 2026 revenue of $3.59 billion, up 5.7% YoY on new business wins and increased volumes across technology, data centers, aerospace and defense, and industrial customers. Nine-month revenue rose 6.8% to $10.33 billion. However, direct operating expense expanded 7.2% QoQ to 85.3% of revenue, driven by higher labor costs associated with new customer start-ups ramping to productivity and unfavorable customer mix shifts, partially offset by $30 million in real estate transaction benefits. Operating income fell 18.6% YoY to $96 million for Q3, signaling margin pressure despite revenue growth.
