NEWS RELEASE
FOR RELEASE: IMMEDIATE
GATX CORPORATION REPORTS 2019 FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS
| |
• | Net income for the first quarter 2019 was $41.5 million or $1.12 per diluted share |
| |
• | Company reiterates 2019 full year earnings guidance |
| |
• | Rail North America fleet utilization remains at 99.4% |
CHICAGO, April 24, 2019 - GATX Corporation (NYSE:GATX) today reported 2019 first quarter net income of $41.5 million or $1.12 per diluted share, compared to net income of $76.3 million or $1.98 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2018.
Brian A. Kenney, president and chief executive officer of GATX, stated, “Conditions in the North American railcar leasing market are consistent with our expectations coming into the year. GATX’s fleet utilization remains extremely high at 99.4% and our renewal success rate in the quarter was 83.6%. The renewal lease rate change of GATX’s Lease Price Index (“LPI”) was positive 5.2%, with an average renewal term of 39 months.
“Rail International produced strong operating results, with GATX Rail Europe’s fleet utilization increasing to 98.9% at the end of the quarter. The lease rate environment in Europe is improving and demand for new cars is steady. The Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates continue to perform well due to robust demand for aircraft spare engines. American Steamship Company’s sailing season began at the end of March, and eleven vessels are currently scheduled to operate in 2019. ”
Mr. Kenney concluded, “The current business environment and our financial performance thus far in 2019 is consistent with our original expectations. Therefore, our 2019 full-year earnings estimate is unchanged at $4.85 - $5.15 per diluted share, excluding the impact of Tax Benefits and Other Items.”
RAIL NORTH AMERICA
Rail North America reported segment profit of $68.4 million in the first quarter of 2019, compared to $108.9 million in the first quarter of 2018. The decline in segment profit is mainly attributable to lower remarketing income recognized in the current quarter. Remarketing income was $9.8 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared to $50.0 million in the first quarter of 2018. The 2019 full year remarketing expectations remain unchanged from prior guidance.
At March 31, 2019, Rail North America’s wholly owned fleet was comprised of approximately 121,000 railcars, including approximately 16,000 boxcars. The following fleet statistics and performance discussion exclude the boxcar fleet.
Fleet utilization was 99.4% at the end of the first quarter, compared to 99.4% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.2% at the end of the first quarter of 2018. During the first quarter of 2019, the renewal lease rate change of the GATX Lease Price Index (“LPI”) was positive 5.2%. This compares to negative 0.9% in the prior quarter and negative 11.6% in the first quarter of 2018. The average lease renewal term for cars included in the LPI during the first quarter was 39 months, compared to 43 months in the prior quarter and 34 months in the first quarter of 2018. The first quarter renewal success rate was 83.6%. Rail North America’s investment volume during the first quarter was $99.0 million.
Additional fleet statistics, including information about 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 $14.8 million in the first quarter of 2019, compared to $19.0 million in the first quarter of 2018. The decline in segment profit was primarily driven by foreign exchange variance.
At March 31, 2019, GATX Rail Europe’s (GRE) fleet consisted of approximately 23,500 cars and utilization was 98.9%, compared to 98.8% at the end of the prior quarter and 96.7% at the end of the first quarter of 2018. Additional fleet statistics for GRE are provided on the last page of this press release.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Portfolio Management reported segment profit of $12.3 million in the first quarter of 2019, compared to $13.9 million in the first quarter of 2018. The decline in segment profit is primarily driven by lower marine operating results partially offset by higher affiliate income at the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates (RRPF).
AMERICAN STEAMSHIP COMPANY
American Steamship Company (ASC) reported a segment profit of $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2019, compared to $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2018. ASC’s operations are limited during the first quarter as the vessels are in winter lay-up from mid-January through late-March.

(*) A portion of our North American railcar fleet is financed through sale-leasebacks that are accounted for as operating leases. Prior to 2019, these railcar assets were not recorded on the balance sheet. Under the new lease accounting standard adopted on January 1, 2019, GATX records these railcar operating leases on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets with corresponding amounts for operating lease liabilities. Prior to 2019, we reported total on- and off-balance sheet assets and included these leased-in assets in our calculation of total assets (as adjusted) because we believed it provided investors a more comprehensive representation of the magnitude of the assets we operated and that drove our financial performance. In addition, this calculation of total assets (as adjusted) provided consistency with other non-financial information we disclosed about our fleet, including the number of railcars in the fleet, average number of cars on lease, and utilization. We also provide information regarding our leverage ratios, which are expressed as a ratio of debt (including off-balance sheet debt) to equity. The off-balance sheet debt amount in this calculation was the equivalent of the off-balance sheet asset amount. We believe reporting this corresponding off-balance sheet debt amount provided investors and other users of our financial statements with a more comprehensive representation of our debt obligations, leverage, and capital structure.

_________
(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. The index is calculated 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.
