Operating Performance
"Triton achieved outstanding results in the fourth quarter of 2020, providing a great finish to a remarkable year," commented Brian Sondey, Chief Executive Officer of Triton. "Triton generated
"Triton’s performance in the fourth quarter continued to benefit from strong leasing demand and was boosted further by exceptional sale prices for used containers. While trade activity in the first half of 2020 was weak due to lingering impacts from the trade dispute between the U.S. and China and the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, global containerized trade volumes rebounded sharply in the third quarter and were well above pre-pandemic levels in the second half of the year. The second half surge in trade volumes was driven by the easing of the lockdowns in the United States and Europe at the end of the second quarter and a shift in consumer spending from experiences and services to goods. Our customers generally did not anticipate this rapid rebound in trade, and all major shipping lines have needed to add significant numbers of containers. Shipping lines have been primarily relying on the leasing market to fulfill their container requirements, and Triton has secured a meaningful share of leasing transactions due to our industry-leading supply capability and our strong reputation for reliability. The Triton team displayed remarkable agility servicing this surge in activity, and we are very proud to be playing an important role helping our customers keep the global supply chain functioning at this critical time."
"Triton has supplied or booked over 1.3 million TEU of new and used containers since the start of the third quarter of 2020. Our fleet utilization reached
"In 2020, Triton also demonstrated its disciplined capital management and ability to deliver significant value to shareholders across a full range of market conditions. While our investment in new containers was limited in the first part of the year due to weak demand, we focused our investment on share repurchases, and repurchased 5.1 million shares in 2020 for an average price of
Outlook
Mr. Sondey continued, "We are carrying a significant amount of operating and financial momentum into 2021. Trade activity and demand for containers remain very strong, and we have approximately 600,000 TEU of new containers booked for pick-up in the first half of 2021. Current price quotes for new container orders are in the range of
"We expect our Adjusted EPS in the first quarter of 2021 will hold fairly steady or slightly increase from the record results we achieved in the fourth quarter of 2020. In the first quarter, we will benefit from a full quarter of near-maximum utilization and a large number of new containers going on-hire as they are produced. These benefits will be offset by fewer revenue days and a decrease in the number of used container disposals due to our much lower inventory level. While it is difficult to predict how long the surge in container demand will last, we expect the benefits from the large number of containers already placed on high value leases along with our improved leasing margins from attractive financing activity will be durable. We expect our Adjusted EPS for the full year of 2021 will be well above our Adjusted EPS in 2020, and we expect our Return on equity will remain high."

(1) | In the equipment fleet tables above, we have included total fleet count information based on CEU. CEU is a ratio used to convert the actual number of containers in our fleet to a figure based on the relative purchase prices of our various equipment types to that of a 20-foot dry container. For example, the CEU ratio for a 40-foot high cube dry container is 1.70, and a 40-foot high cube refrigerated container is 7.50. These factors may differ slightly from CEU ratios used by others in the industry. |

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Items
We use the terms "Adjusted net income" and return on equity throughout this press release.
Adjusted net income and return on equity are not items presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, amounts determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including net income.
Adjusted net income is adjusted for certain items management believes are not representative of our operating performance. Adjusted net income is defined as net income attributable to common shareholders excluding debt termination expenses net of tax, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments net of tax, and foreign and other income tax adjustments.
We believe that Adjusted net income is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because this item:
- is widely used by securities analysts and investors to measure a company's operating performance;
- helps investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure, our asset base and certain non-routine events which we do not expect to occur in the future; and
- is used by our management for various purposes, including as measures of operating performance and liquidity, to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis, in presentations to our board of directors concerning our financial performance and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.
We have provided a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to Adjusted net income in the table below for the three months ended December 31, 2020, September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Additionally, the calculation for return on equity is adjusted annualized earnings divided by average shareholders' equity. Management utilizes return on equity in evaluating how much profit the Company generates on the shareholders' equity in the Company and believes it is useful for comparing the profitability of companies in the same industry.
