Overview
The discussion of liquidity and capital resources comparing 2023 versus 2022 can be found in Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations of our 2023 10-K, starting on page 40.
Over the last three years, we used cash generated from our operations and borrowings to
invest in the infrastructure of our business (new facilities, cash sorting and other equipment for our cash management services operations, armored trucks, DRS devices, and information technology) ($608 million),
repurchase shares of Brink's common stock ($426 million),
acquire new business operations ($209 million), and
pay dividends to Brink’s shareholders ($119 million).
Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $(276.4) million in 2024 as compared to the prior year primarily due to changes in customer obligations related to certain of our secure cash management services operations, a decrease in restricted cash held for customers and higher amounts paid for income taxes and interest, partially offset by improvements in working capital excluding taxes and interest. Cash used for investing activities increased by $36.4 million in 2024 due to net outflows related to purchases and sales of marketable securities in 2024 versus net inflows in the prior year. Cash also decreased $95.2 million in 2024 as a result of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar in 2024, primarily against the euro, Mexican peso and Argentine peso. We financed our liquidity needs in 2024 with debt and cash flows from operations.
