Conduent Announces Agreement to Sell Its Tolling Business to Quarterhill Inc. for $70 Million
Conduent Will Also Receive a 7% Interest in Quarterhill Inc.
Conduent Bolsters Financial Position
Tolling Agreement Follows Recently Announced Agreement to Sell Its Public Transit Business.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J., [June 30, 2026] — Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), a global technology‑driven business solutions and services provider, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Tolling business (a division of Conduent Transportation) to Quarterhill Inc. (TSX: QTRH) (OTCQX: QTRHF), a leading global provider of intelligent transportation system solutions.
The sale has a purchase price of $70 million in cash, and Quarterhill will assume most liabilities associated with the business, including all surety bond obligations, further improving Conduent’s financial profile. The structure of the transaction enhances Conduent’s financial flexibility and reduces exposure to non-core obligations.
The transaction is expected to close before the end of 2026.
This agreement follows a separate transaction, announced in May, to sell the Public Transit business, also part of Conduent’s Transportation division, which is similarly expected to close before the end of 2026.
Together, these transactions simplify Conduent’s portfolio and increase focus on its core businesses, enhancing the predictability and durability of Conduent’s earnings profile.
“This Tolling transaction, alongside the previously announced Public Transit agreement, advances our strategy to simplify our portfolio, sharpen focus on our core businesses, and strengthen our financial foundation,” said Harsha V. Agadi, Conduent President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are continuing our strategic journey to enhance long-term value creation, including simplifying our business, strengthening the balance sheet, and increasing sustainable free cash flow.
“With more than four decades of experience in tolling, Quarterhill is extremely well positioned to support the Conduent Tolling team and its clients. As we move toward closing, we remain committed to delivering outstanding quality and performance for all Transportation clients while ensuring smooth transitions for both clients and associates.”
As part of the transaction, Conduent will also receive a 7% interest in Quarterhill Inc. along with registration rights and board observer rights, providing potential upside participation in future value creation.
With operations in the United States and United Kingdom, Conduent’s Tolling business provides mission‑critical technology that enables all‑electronic tolling, roadside and back‑office processing, image review, violation enforcement, and analytics. It supports more than 14 million tolling transactions per day.
