$PBI Can Pitney Bowes keep adjusted free cash flow strong into 2027 once the prepayment boost from new presort clients fades?
🏢 Pitney Bowes, the mailing-equipment and presort company worth about $2.39B at $17.43 at 16:00 ET on October 28, 2026, posted Q3 adjusted free cash flow of $147M, up 144% from $60M, on revenue of $456M, down 1%
⚠️ The release says year-to-date free cash flow benefited from increased prepayments by new customers after a significant mail sortation competitor exited
