Corpay estimated that macroeconomic conditions increased consolidated revenue by approximately $163 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared with the prior-year period. The benefit included approximately $115 million from favorable foreign-exchange rates, mostly in Brazil, the U.K. and Australia; $46 million from fuel prices; and $3 million from fuel-price spreads. In the third quarter, the estimated net benefit was approximately $32 million, including $16 million from foreign exchange and $22 million from fuel prices, partly offset by a $5 million adverse fuel-spread impact.
