GATX Corporation Reports 2021 Second-Quarter Results

Rhea-AI Summary

GATX Corporation reported second-quarter 2021 net income of $5.5 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, significantly lower than $37.0 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, year-over-year. The results include a negative impact of $39.7 million due to a tax rate increase in the UK and $3.4 million related to debt extinguishment. Despite these challenges, the company increased its full-year earnings guidance to $4.30-$4.50 per diluted share. Rail North America posted a segment profit of $77.6 million, reflecting higher asset disposition gains. However, Portfolio Management profits declined due to lower earnings from affiliates.

CHICAGO, July 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GATX Corporation (NYSE:GATX) today reported 2021 second-quarter results. Results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021 are summarized below:

	Three Months Ended June 30								Six Months Ended June 30
Per Diluted Share	2021				2020				2021				2020
Income from Continuing Operations	$	0.15			$	1.05			$	1.17			$	2.38
Income from Discontinued Operations	—				0.06				—				0.04
Total	$	0.15			$	1.11			$	1.17			$	2.42

2021 second-quarter net income from continuing operations was $5.5 million or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $37.0 million or $1.05 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2020. Net income from continuing operations for the first six months of 2021 was $42.0 million or $1.17 per diluted share, compared to $84.2 million or $2.38 per diluted share in the prior year period. The 2021 second-quarter and year-to-date results include a net negative impact of $39.7 million or $1.10 per diluted share related to an enacted tax rate increase in the United Kingdom and a net negative impact of $3.4 million or $0.09 per diluted share attributed to debt extinguishment costs associated with an early redemption. Details related to these items are provided in the attached Supplemental Information under Tax Adjustments and Other Items.

Net income from discontinued operations in the second-quarter and year-to-date periods of 2021 was zero, compared to $2.3 million or $0.06 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2020 and $1.4 million or $0.04 per diluted share for the first six months of 2020.

"We continued to see improvement in Rail North America's operating environment in the second quarter, as rail carloads increased and industry cars in storage decreased from last quarter and the prior year," said Brian A. Kenney, president and chief executive officer of GATX. "GATX's fleet utilization increased to 98.5% at quarter end and our renewal success rate was 77.5%. Absolute lease rates across the majority of our fleet increased for the fourth quarter in a row, and we continue to operate more efficiently in our maintenance network. We expect these favorable trends to remain for the rest of this year.

"As expected, Rail International performed well, and we are progressing against our goal of growing and diversifying our fleet in Europe. Second-quarter fleet utilization at GATX Rail Europe remained high at 98.4% and renewal lease rates continue to be higher than expiring rates for most car types. Underlying demand for our railcars remains strong in Europe and India. However, fleet growth at Rail India during the quarter was constrained by COVID-19-related manufacturing disruptions. In the Portfolio Management segment, Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates' operations remain challenged as demand for long-haul passenger flights continues to be hampered by COVID-19 travel restrictions."

Mr. Kenney concluded, "We are encouraged by the continuing recovery in the North American railcar leasing market and our other segments are performing in line with our expectations. Therefore, we are increasing our 2021 full-year earnings estimate to $4.30 to $4.50 per diluted share, from our previous guidance of $4.00 to $4.30 per diluted share. This guidance excludes any impact from Tax Adjustments and Other Items."

RAIL NORTH AMERICA
Rail North America reported segment profit of $77.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $50.0 million in the second quarter of 2020. Higher segment profit was primarily a result of higher gains on asset dispositions, reflective of a robust secondary market for railcar sales. Year to date, Rail North America reported segment profit of $143.3 million, compared to $122.0 million in the same period of 2020. The increase in year-to-date 2021 results was predominantly driven by higher gains on asset dispositions and lower maintenance expense, partially offset by lower revenue.

At June 30, 2021, Rail North America’s wholly owned fleet was comprised of approximately 114,800 cars, including approximately 12,700 boxcars. The following fleet statistics and performance discussion exclude the boxcar fleet.

Fleet utilization was 98.5% at the end of the second quarter, compared to 97.8% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.7% at the end of the second quarter of 2020. During the second quarter, the renewal lease rate change of the GATX Lease Price Index (LPI) was negative 6.7%. This compares to negative 18.1% in the prior quarter and negative 28.0% in the second quarter of 2020. The average lease renewal term for all cars included in the LPI during the second quarter was 29 months, compared to 30 months in the prior quarter and 31 months in the second quarter of 2020. Rail North America’s investment volume during the second quarter was $106.4 million.

Additional fleet statistics, including information on the boxcar fleet, and macroeconomic data related to Rail North America’s business are provided on the last page of this press release.

RAIL INTERNATIONAL
Rail International’s segment profit was $27.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $20.0 million in the second quarter of 2020. Year-to-date 2021, Rail International reported segment profit of $49.1 million, compared to $33.9 million for the same period of 2020. Results in the comparative periods were favorably impacted by more railcars on lease and by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

At June 30, 2021, GATX Rail Europe’s (GRE) fleet consisted of approximately 26,700 cars. Utilization was 98.4%, compared to 98.2% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.4% at the end of the second quarter of 2020. Additional fleet statistics for GRE are provided on the last page of this press release.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Portfolio Management reported segment profit of $12.2 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $19.3 million in the second quarter of 2020. Segment profit year-to-date 2021 was $18.3 million, compared to $38.8 million for the same period of 2020. The decrease in second-quarter and year-to-date segment profit was due to lower share of affiliates’ earnings from the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates, resulting from lower income from operations and lower remarketing income, partially offset by GATX Engine Leasing earnings.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In the second quarter of 2020, GATX completed the sale of American Steamship Company (ASC). The ASC business segment is accounted for as discontinued operations. Results for discontinued operations are summarized below:

(Income per diluted share)	Three Months Ended June 30								Six Months Ended June 30

(*) In addition to financial results reported in accordance with GAAP, we compute certain financial measures using non-GAAP components. Specifically, we exclude the effects of certain tax adjustments and other items for purposes of presenting net income, diluted earnings per share, and return on equity because we believe these items are not attributable to our business operations. Management utilizes net income, excluding tax adjustments and other items, when analyzing financial performance because such amounts reflect the underlying operating results that are within management’s ability to influence. Accordingly, we believe presenting this information provides investors and other users of our financial statements with meaningful supplemental information for purposes of analyzing year-to-year financial performance on a comparable basis and assessing trends.

 _________

(1) GATX's Lease Price Index (LPI) is an internally-generated business indicator that measures lease rate pricing on renewals for our North American railcar fleet, excluding boxcars. GATX calculates the index using the weighted-average lease rate for a group of railcar types that GATX believes best represents its overall North American fleet, excluding boxcars. The average renewal lease rate change is reported as the percentage change between the average renewal lease rate and the average expiring lease rate, weighted by fleet composition. The average renewal lease term is reported in months and reflects the average renewal lease term of railcar types in the LPI, weighted by fleet composition.
(2) Excludes boxcar fleet.
(3) As reported and revised by the Federal Reserve.
(4) As reported by the Association of American Railroads (AAR).
(5) As reported by the Railway Supply Institute (RSI).
(6) Not available, not published as of the date of this release.
(7) Total net tons carried for the second quarter of 2020 reflects volume through May 14, 2020, the date of the sale.
