Comments on Fourth Quarter
Jack Hellmann, President and CEO of G&W, commented, “Our financial results for the fourth quarter of 2014 were solid, as our North American operations performed well thanks to a good U.S. economy, which more than offset weakness in our Australian operations. In the fourth quarter, G&W’s revenues increased 6%, our operating ratio improved 3.1 percentage points to 72.7%, and our adjusted diluted EPS increased 19.1%.” (1)
“In North America, our operating income increased 28% in the fourth quarter despite weaker than expected petroleum products shipments, and our North American operating ratio improved 3.4 percentage points to 74%. In Australia, our operating income declined 4% due to weaker shipments from both iron ore and intermodal customers, although effective cost controls resulted in an Australian operating ratio of 67%.”
Comments on Full Year 2014 and 2015
Jack Hellmann continued, “After a slow start to 2014 due to severe winter weather, G&W’s pre-tax income increased approximately 17% for the final nine months of 2014 led by the relative strength of the U.S. economy and the successful integration of the Rapid City, Pierre & Eastern Railroad (RCP&E). In addition, our cash flow was at record levels in 2014 as we generated free cash flow before business investments of $296 million.” (1)
“In 2015, we expect continued growth from our North American operations, which represents approximately 80% of our revenue, partially offset by a contraction in our Australian operations, which represents approximately 20% of our revenue, due to the closure of several iron ore mines. Overall we expect mid-teens growth in G&W’s pre-tax income in 2015, and we also continue to evaluate acquisition and investment opportunities worldwide.”

Explanation of Items Affecting Comparability
In December 2014, the U.S. Short Line Tax Credit (which had previously expired on December 31, 2013) was extended for fiscal year 2014. In the fourth quarter of 2014, G&W recorded a tax benefit of $27.0 million associated with the extension of the Short Line Tax Credit, which included $19.6 million for the first three quarters of 2014 and $7.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. In addition, net income and diluted EPS for the fourth quarter of 2014 were reduced by approximately $3.5 million and $0.06 per share, respectively, due to the application of the full year 2014 effective tax rate to the results of the first three quarters of 2014.
In the fourth quarter of 2014, G&W’s results also included business development and related costs of $1.6 million and net gain on sale of assets of $1.7 million. In the fourth quarter of 2013, G&W results included $1.2 million of business development and related costs, $1.0 million of RailAmerica integration and acquisition-related costs, net gain on asset sales of $1.3 million, a valuation allowance on foreign tax credits (FTC) generated in prior years of $2.0 million and a $7.6 million benefit associated with the Short Line Tax Credit.
Results
In the fourth quarter of 2014, G&W’s total operating revenues increased $24.0 million, or 6.1%, to $415.6 million, compared with $391.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. The increase included $20.7 million in revenues from the newly established RCP&E. These revenues were partially offset by a $9.2 million decrease from the net depreciation of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. Excluding the net impact from foreign currency depreciation, G&W’s same railroad operating revenues, which exclude revenues from RCP&E, increased $12.5 million, or 3.3%.
G&W’s same railroad freight revenues in the fourth quarter of 2014 were $298.1 million, compared with $297.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Excluding a $6.8 million decrease from the impact of foreign currency depreciation, G&W’s same railroad freight revenues increased by $7.4 million, or 2.6%.
G&W’s same railroad non-freight revenues in the fourth quarter of 2014 were $96.8 million, compared with $94.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Excluding a $2.4 million decrease from the impact of foreign currency depreciation, G&W’s same railroad non-freight revenues increased by $5.0 million, or 5.5%.
G&W’s traffic in the fourth quarter of 2014 increased 38,235 carloads, or 8.1%, to 510,141 carloads. Excluding 16,542 carloads from RCP&E, same railroad traffic in the fourth quarter of 2014 increased 21,693 carloads, or 4.6%. The same railroad traffic increase was principally due to increases of 11,303 carloads of minerals and stone traffic (across most of G&W’s regions), 10,073 carloads of coal and coke traffic (primarily in the Midwest and Ohio Valley regions) and 4,321 carloads from G&W’s other commodity group (primarily in overhead Class I shipments), partially offset by a 6,023 carload decrease in agricultural products traffic (primarily due to decreased shipments in the Australia, Ohio Valley and Midwest regions, partially offset by increased shipments in the Central Region). All remaining traffic increased by a net 2,019 carloads.
G&W’s income from operations in the fourth quarter of 2014 was $113.5 million, compared with $94.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. G&W’s operating ratio in the fourth quarter of 2014 was 72.7%, compared with an operating ratio of 75.8% in the fourth quarter of 2013. Income from operations in the fourth quarter of 2014 included a net gain on sale of assets of $1.7 million, partially offset by business development and related costs of $1.6 million. Income from operations in the fourth quarter of 2013 included business development and related costs of $1.2 million as well as $1.0 million of RailAmerica integration and acquisition-related costs, partially offset by net gain on sale of assets of $1.3 million. Excluding these items, G&W’s adjusted income from operations increased $17.7 million, or 18.4%, to $113.4 million. G&W’s adjusted operating ratio improved 2.9 percentage points to 72.7% in the fourth quarter of 2014, compared with 75.6% in the fourth quarter of 2013. (1)

Excluding the impact of certain items affecting comparability listed below, G&W’s adjusted net income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $233.5 million ($372.8 million adjusted pre-tax), compared with adjusted net income of $214.7 million ($332.9 million adjusted pre-tax) for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release contains references to adjusted income from operations, adjusted operating ratio, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per common share, and free cash flow, which are “non-GAAP financial measures” as this term is defined in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In accordance with these rules, G&W has reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures.
Management views these non-GAAP financial measures as important measures of G&W’s operating performance or, in the case of free cash flow, an important financial measure of how well G&W is managing its assets and a useful indicator of cash flow that may be available for discretionary use by G&W. Management also views these non-GAAP financial measures as a way to assess comparability between periods. Key limitations of the free cash flow measure include the assumptions that G&W will be able to refinance its existing debt when it matures and meet other cash flow obligations from financing activities, such as principal payments on debt.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or as an alternative to, their most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
The following tables set forth reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measure (in millions, except percentages and per share amounts).
