2021 third-quarter net income from continuing operations was $40.1 million or $1.11 per diluted share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $48.2 million or $1.36 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2020. Net income from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2021 was $82.1 million or $2.28 per diluted share, compared to $132.4 million or $3.74 per diluted share in the prior year period. The 2021 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. The 2020 third-quarter and year-to-date results include a net negative impact of $12.3 million or $0.35 per diluted share related to the elimination of a previously announced tax rate reduction in the United Kingdom. Details related to these items are provided in the attached Supplemental Information under Impact of Tax Adjustments and Other Items on Net Income.

Net income from discontinued operations in the third-quarter and year-to-date periods of 2021 was zero, compared to net loss of $0.3 million or $(0.01) per diluted share in the third quarter of 2020 and net income of $1.1 million or $0.03 per diluted share for the first nine months of 2020.

"We continue to see improvement across our global railcar leasing markets," said Brian A. Kenney, president and chief executive officer of GATX. "In North America, GATX's fleet utilization increased to 99.2% at quarter end and our renewal success rate was 84%. Absolute lease rates across the majority of our fleet increased for the fifth quarter in a row, while the third-quarter renewal lease rate change of GATX’s Lease Price Index was in line with our expectations at negative 8.1%.

“Rail International continues to perform well, as demand for railcars in Europe and India remains robust. GATX Rail Europe's fleet utilization remained high at 98.1% and renewal lease rates for most car types increased versus the expiring rates. GATX Rail Europe and GATX Rail India continued to grow and diversify their fleets during the quarter. However, the pace of fleet growth in 2021 has been negatively impacted by COVID-19-related new car delivery delays in both regions. In Portfolio Management, the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates performed as expected in a challenging operating environment for international air travel.”

Mr. Kenney concluded, “Based on year-to-date performance and our outlook for the remainder of the year, we continue to expect our 2021 full-year earnings to be in the range of $4.30 to $4.50 per diluted share. This guidance excludes any impact from Tax Adjustments and Other Items.”

RAIL NORTH AMERICA

Rail North America reported segment profit of $66.5 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to $56.1 million in the third quarter of 2020. Year to date, Rail North America reported segment profit of $209.8 million, compared to $178.1 million in the same period of 2020. Higher third-quarter and year-to-date segment profit was predominantly driven by higher gains on asset dispositions and lower maintenance expense, partially offset by lower revenue.

At Sept. 30, 2021, Rail North America’s wholly owned fleet was comprised of approximately 114,200 cars, including over 12,800 boxcars. The following fleet statistics and performance discussion exclude the boxcar fleet.

Fleet utilization was 99.2% at the end of the third quarter, compared to 98.5% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.2% at the end of the third quarter of 2020. During the third quarter, the renewal lease rate change of the GATX Lease Price Index (LPI) was negative 8.1%. This compares to negative 6.7% in the prior quarter and negative 29.4% in the third quarter of 2020. The average lease renewal term for all cars included in the LPI during the third quarter was 32 months, compared to 29 months in the prior quarter and 29 months in the third quarter of 2020. Rail North America’s investment volume during the third quarter was $178.9 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 $27.0 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to $24.0 million in the third quarter of 2020. Rail International reported segment profit of $76.1 million year-to-date 2021, compared to $57.9 million for the same period of 2020. The increase in third-quarter and year-to-date segment profit was predominately driven by more railcars on lease.

At Sept. 30, 2021, GATX Rail Europe’s (GRE) fleet consisted of over 26,800 cars. Utilization was 98.1%, compared to 98.4% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.2% at the end of the third 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 $6.2 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to $44.3 million in the third quarter of 2020. Segment profit year-to-date 2021 was $24.5 million, compared to $83.1 million for the same period of 2020. The decline in segment profit in the comparative periods was primarily driven by lower share of affiliates’ earnings from the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates, and in particular a large gain in the third quarter of 2020 from a transaction involving the refinancing and sale of a group of aircraft spare engines.

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:

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this Earnings Release not based on historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, accordingly, involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and could cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from those discussed. These include statements as to our future expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, events, conditions, financial performance, prospects, or future events. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “outlook,” “continue,” “likely,” “will,” “would”, and similar words and phrases. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us and our management, are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made, and are not guarantees of future performance. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements.

The following factors, in addition to those discussed in our other filings with the SEC, including our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and subsequent reports on Form 10-Q, could cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations expressed in forward-looking statements:

 

  • the duration and effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic, including adverse impacts on our business, personnel, operations, commercial activity, supply chain, the demand for our transportation assets, the value of our assets, our liquidity, and macroeconomic conditions
  • exposure to damages, fines, criminal and civil penalties, and reputational harm arising from a negative outcome in litigation, including claims arising from an accident involving our transportation assets
  • inability to maintain our transportation assets on lease at satisfactory rates due to oversupply of assets in the market or other changes in supply and demand
  • a significant decline in customer demand for our transportation assets or services, including as a result of:
    • weak macroeconomic conditions
    • weak market conditions in our customers' businesses
    • adverse changes in the price of, or demand for, commodities
    • changes in railroad operations, efficiency, pricing and service offerings, including those related to "precision scheduled railroading"
    • changes in supply chains
    • availability of pipelines, trucks, and other alternative modes of transportation
    • changes in conditions affecting the aviation industry, including reduced demand for air travel, geographic exposure and customer concentrations
    • other operational or commercial needs or decisions of our customers
    • customers' desire to buy, rather than lease, our transportation assets
  • higher costs associated with increased assignments of our transportation assets following non-renewal of leases, customer defaults, and compliance maintenance programs or other maintenance initiatives
  • events having an adverse impact on assets, customers, or regions where we have a concentrated investment exposure

 

 

  • financial and operational risks associated with long-term purchase commitments for transportation assets
  • reduced opportunities to generate asset remarketing income
  • inability to successfully consummate and manage ongoing acquisition and divestiture activities
  • reliance on Rolls-Royce in connection with our aircraft spare engine leasing businesses, and the risks that certain factors that adversely affect Rolls-Royce could have an adverse effect on those businesses
  • fluctuations in foreign exchange rates
  • failure to successfully negotiate collective bargaining agreements with the unions representing a substantial portion of our employees
  • asset impairment charges we may be required to recognize
  • deterioration of conditions in the capital markets, reductions in our credit ratings, or increases in our financing costs
  • changes in banks' inter-lending rate reporting practices and the phasing out of LIBOR
  • competitive factors in our primary markets, including competitors with significantly lower costs of capital
  • risks related to our international operations and expansion into new geographic markets, including laws, regulations, tariffs, taxes, treaties or trade barriers affecting our activities in the countries where we do business
  • changes in, or failure to comply with, laws, rules, and regulations
  • inability to obtain cost-effective insurance
  • environmental liabilities and remediation costs
  • potential obsolescence of our assets
  • inadequate allowances to cover credit losses in our portfolio
  • operational, functional and regulatory risks associated with severe weather events, climate change and natural disasters

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.

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).
