$276 million - 2022 revenue outlook reaffirmed at between
$340 million and$360 million and deliveries of between 3,000 and 3,200 railcars
Jim Meyer, President and Chief Executive Officer of FreightCar America, commented, “FreightCar America delivered another quarter of strong top-line growth while also producing another record number of railcars at the Castaños facility. That said, our financial results were muted by the combined impacts of delivering lower margin orders accepted at the bottom of the cycle and elevated freight costs. We expect margins to strengthen starting in the fourth quarter as these orders are completed.”
Meyer continued, “While there is much more work to accomplish, we continued to make solid progress on our strategic and performance initiatives in Castaños. The new fabrication shop started operating in the third quarter and our expanded wheel mounting and axle machining facility achieved AAR certification just after the close of the quarter, both of which will bring meaningful efficiencies going forward. We continue to invest in the business and work to position ourselves as a world class manufacturer in Northern Mexico, anchored by the new purpose-built facility and an exceptional workforce.”
Meyer concluded, “We remain confident in our direction and look forward to the future benefits of a built-out manufacturing campus combined with a healthier macroeconomic environment and more normalized supply chains.”
Fiscal Year 2022 Outlook
- The Company has reaffirmed its outlook for fiscal year 2022 as follows:
| Fiscal Year 2022 | |
Revenue | Between |
Railcar Deliveries | Between 3,000 and 3,200 railcars |
Mike Riordan, Chief Financial Officer of FreightCar America, added, “With our new footprint in Mexico, we have right sized our business and improved our operating structure, which has allowed us to meaningfully reduce our cost structure. Over the past year, we have seen our production capability increase beyond our original expectation and the team in Castaños capture the operational efficiencies we envisioned. This has led to

| (1) | EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry. In addition, our management uses EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance. The calculation of EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending. These items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall performance of the company’s business. EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similar titled measures reported by other companies. | ||||
| (2) | Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before the following charges: | ||||
| a) | This adjustment removes the non-cash (income) expense associated with the change in fair market value of the Company’s warrant liability. | ||||
| b) | The Company incurred certain restructuring costs related to severance and other costs related to its shut-down of the Shoals and Roanoke facilities. | ||||
| c) | The Company recorded a non-cash gain on extinguishment of its PPP Loan in the third quarter of 2021. | ||||
| d) | The Company amortizes deferred grant income to cost of goods sold that represents a non-cash reduction to its gross margin (loss). | ||||
| e) | The Company transitioned to tolling manufacturing structure in the third quarter of 2022 and as a result incurred permanent VAT costs. | ||||
| f) | The Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax pension settlement loss in the third quarter of 2022. | ||||
| g) | The Company incurred certain costs during 2021 and 2022 for nonrecurring professional services associated with its financing arrangements. | ||||
| h) | The Company incurred certain costs during 2022 related to new production lines. | ||||
| i) | The Company incurred certain non-recurring consulting costs during the fourth quarter of 2021 and first quarter of 2022. | ||||
| j) | The Company incurred certain non-recurring corporate realignment costs in 2022. | ||||
| k) | During the first and fourth quarters of 2021, the Company recognized charges related to a legal dispute. | ||||
| l) | The Company implemented a program to shift production originally planned for its U.S. plants to its Castaños facility. This adjustment represents non-recurring costs associated with moving inventory and equipment to its Castaños facility in 2021. | ||||
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash charges and other special items that affect the comparability of results in past quarters. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

We believe that Adjusted net income (loss) is useful to investors evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash charges and other special items that affect the comparability of results in past quarters. Adjusted net income (loss) is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted net income (loss) in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted net income (loss) is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
