SUMMARY Budget analysis threshold: More than $500,000 budgeted with variances greater than +/- 5% of the targeted spending level. • Salaries & Wages/Technical & Special Fees ( Object 01 & 02 - $234.8M Budget ) are at targeted spending levels with a 100% spend rate. • Communications ( Object 03 - $4.3M Budget ) is below budget with a 74% spend rate primarily due to lower telecommunications (telephone, cell phone, etc.) expenses. The primary driver for the underspend due to the delayed installation of a new phone port that was scheduled for FY 2025 but will be completed in FY 2026. • Travel ( Object 4 - $639K Budget ) is below budget with a 42% spend rate. The availability of virtual meetings coupled with new travel guidelines are key drivers for the underspending in this category.

FY 2025 Operating Budget vs. Actual Spending Review Page Two

• Fuel and Utilities ( Object 06 - $5.0M Budget ) is slightly above budget with a 102% spend rate primarily due to electricity charges partially offset by underspending in fuel oil, natural gas, and water. o Utilities-Electricity ( Object 0620 - $4.0M Budget ) is above budget with 105% spend rate due to market pressures. • Motor Vehicle Operations & Maintenance ( Object 07 - $26.4M Budget ) is below budget with a 77% spend rate. o Vehicle Purchases ( Object 0701 - $16.6M Budget ) is below budget with a 79% spend rate. The laptops and cameras that were part of the MDTA Police vehicle cost were not received by fiscal year end. o Vehicles Gas & Oil ( Object 0702 - $4.0M Budget ) is below budget with a 46% spend rate due to the easing of gas prices compared to budget assumptions. o Vehicles Maintenance & Repair ( Object 0703 - $2.0M Budget ) is below budget with an 88% spend rate. o Other Vehicles Gas & Oil ( Object 0731 - $1.0M Budget ) is below budget with an 87% spend rate. o Large Vehicle Maintenance & Repair ( Object 0732 - $2.1M Budget ) is above budget with an 108% spend rate. o All other major sub-objects are within budget guidelines. • Contractual Services ( Object 08 - $145.9M Budget ) are close to budget with a 90% spend rate. o Advertising ( 0801 - $3.1M Budget) is below budget with a 66% spend rate. Some promotional activity has moved into FY 2026. o Equipment Repairs & Maintenance (0809 - $1.4M Budget) is below budget with a 57% spend rate. This is driven by the VMWare renewal that will be realized in FY 2026 instead of FY 2025. o Building/Road Repairs & Maintenance ( 0812 - $15.5M Budget ) is above budget with a 114% spend rate. Building renovations, repairs (HVAC, boilers, ITS expenses, sludge removal, engineering) and the timing associated with accounting invoices across the operational cost centers drive the performance. o Janitorial Services ( 0813 – $1.8M Budget ) is slightly below budget with a 92% spend rate. o Education & Training ( 0819 - $1.3M Budget ) is below budget with a 62% spend rate. The Career Development Program costs drive the underspend. Spending in this area has not recovered following the pandemic. o Management Studies ( 0821 - $6.2M Budget ) is below budget with a 48% spend rate. A delay in awarding a contract for an A/E contract and reduced activity across the various cost centers drive the performance. o Security Services ( 0823- $1.2M Budget ) is below budget with a 55% spend rate. o Fiscal Services (0829 - $15.9M Budget) is below budget with an 86% spend rate, primarily driven by credit card volume .

FY 2025 Operating Budget vs. Actual Spending Review Page Three

o IT Services ( 0841through 0869 - $13.9M Budget ) is above budget with a 108% spend rate driven by Object 0862 Application Software Maintenance.  Application Software Maintenance ( 0862 - $2.2M Budget ) is above budget with a 277% spend rate. The sharp increase is due to rate and usage increases for the Computer Aided Dispatch and Record Management System. This cost is anticipated to stay elevated in the future. o E-ZPass ® Service Center Costs ( 0873 - $44.0M Budget ) is below budget with an 83% spend rate. Delays in anticipated task order activity coupled with lower than anticipated spending in other areas of the budget are the primary drivers for the underspending in this area. o Other Contractual Services (0899 - $4.4M Budget) is below budget with a 73% spend rate. This is primarily due a lower than budgeted overhead rate for the MSP. • Supplies & Materials ( Object 09- $10.6M Budget ) is below budget with an 78% spend rate. o Roadway Maintenance ( 0905 - $665K Budget ) is below budget with a 73% spend rate due to lower emergency activity. o Salt ( 0906 - $1.9M Budget ) is at a 54% spend rate due to the reduced winter storm activity. o Uniforms (0912 - $1.2M Budget) is below budget with an 87% spend rate. This cost is driven by when the orders are received. o Ammunition ( 0934 - $594K Budget ) is below budget with an 89% spend rate. o Transponders ( 0951 - $4.0M Budget) expense is below budget with an 84% spend rate. • Replacement Equipment (Object 10 - $2.7M Budget ) is below budget with a 56% spend rate. o Microcomputers ( Object 1033 - $1.4M Budget) is below budget with a 59% spend rate. Some computer requirements are being moved to FY 2026. o Other Replacement Equipment (Object 1099 - $529K Budget) is below budget with a 19% spend rate. The performance is driven by the MSP K-9 underspend. • Additional Equipment ( Object 11 - $1.2M Budget ) is below budget with a 47% spend rate mostly due the timing of orders. Reduced spend and accounting invoice timing drive the underspend. • Fixed Costs ( Object 13 - $9.8M Budget ) is over budget with a 126% spend rate. o Insurance ( Object 1309 - $8.5M Budget ) is over budget with a 129% spend rate due to increases in both property and liability insurance.

TO: FROM: SUBJECT: DATE:

MDTA Finance and Administration Committee Assistant Capital Program Manager Jennifer Stump Fourth Quarter Review of FY 2025 Capital Budget vs. Actual Spending September 11 , 2025

PURPOSE OF MEMORANDUM The purpose of the memorandum is to update the MDTA Finance and Administration Committee on the status of actual FY 2025 capital spending against the FY 2025 capital budget in the FY 2025-2030 Draft Consolidated Transportation Program (CTP). This information will be presented to the MDTA Board on September 25, 2025. SUMMARY As of June 30, 2025, 65% of the FY 2025 budget was spent as compared to the targeted spending level of 100%. The total budget for FY 2025 was $809.8 million. The actual spending through the fourth quarter was $525.3 million. ANALYSIS Eight of the 91 projects budgeted in FY 2025 were within the acceptable spending limits of 90% to 110% (plus or minus 10% of the 100% target). The variation is decreased from the 25% reported for the first, second, and third quarters because all allocations, accruals, and FY 2025 invoices were posted. Actual spending through the fourth quarter for ten projects with the highest FY 2025 budgets was $392.5 million. The ten projects are detailed in Attachment A.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2025 Traffic and Revenue Performance

DATE:

September 11, 2025

PURPOSE OF MEMORANDUM To provide the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) Finance & Administration Committee with a quarterly and year-to-date update regarding traffic and toll revenue trends compared to the previous year and the forecast. KEY TAKEAWAYS • For the year ended June 30, 2025, overall collected revenue was above forecast by $35.1 million. • An increase in revenue collected by the Central Collection Unit (CCU) has improved forecasted performance: o Video toll revenue was $8.4 million higher than forecasted. o Civil penalty fee revenue was $33.6 million higher than forecasted. ANALYSIS This quarterly review looks at traffic and toll revenue trends and compares actual system-wide experience with traffic and toll revenue forecasts. CDM Smith tracks and evaluates the performance of traffic at the lane level and traffic and revenue collected on a cash basis.

*Note: Numbers may not sum due to rounding

As shown in the table above, for the year ended June 30, 2025, systemwide transactions totaled 157.5 million and corresponding toll and administrative revenue totaled $783.4 million. This represents a decrease of (0.7) million transactions, or (0.4)%, compared to the same period last year. The reduction in transactions is mostly attributed to the allision of the M/V DALI with the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which is slightly offset by an increase in transactions on the Intercounty Connector (ICC) and I-95 Express Toll Lanes (ETL) facilities. Year-to-date revenue increased by $0.4 million, or 0.1%, compared to the same period last year. The increase in revenue was mostly attributed to the improved collection of civil penalty fees and growth in traffic on the ICC and ETL facilities. For the year ended June 30, 2025, actual revenue was above forecast by $35.1 million. The variance between forecasted and actual performance was mainly due to higher than projected video toll and civil penalty fee collections, which was partially offset by an underperformance in E- ZPass ® revenue.
