Dick Giromini, president and chief executive officer, stated, “We are very pleased with the continued strong performance and our ability to deliver third quarter results that represent record achievement levels for net sales, gross profit, income from operations, operating margin and Operating EBITDA. The overall strength in the Company’s operating performance demonstrates that both the operational improvement initiatives and the transformative nature of our strategic growth efforts are paying strong dividends. All segments contributed significantly to the record performance this quarter as Commercial Trailer Products’ ongoing commitment to margin improvement and manufacturing excellence resulted in record level gross profit and operating income while Diversified Products’ performance provided significant year over year and sequential improvements. Through the first nine months of 2015 we have continued the momentum generated last year with strong operational execution and an accelerated pace of improvement from our record breaking 2014.”
Mr. Giromini continued, “New trailer shipments for the third quarter were approximately 16,500, just within the range of our previous guidance of 16,500 to 17,500 trailers. With three quarters now complete and a full order book for the remainder of the year, we fully expect to finish 2015 with the Company’s fourth consecutive year of record performance. As such, we are now updating and tightening our full-year trailer shipment guidance to 63,000 to 64,000 trailers and increasing our adjusted earnings guidance to $1.38 to $1.43 per diluted share. Longer term, supported by a healthy backlog of $1.1 billion, we believe the demand environment for trailers will remain strong as customer profitability, fleet age and regulatory compliance requirements all support an extended trailer cycle. Additionally, we expect continued growth from our strategic initiatives through new product introductions and market expansion opportunities.”

Commercial Trailer Products achieved new quarterly records for gross profit, operating income and operating margin. Net sales were $387 million, an increase of $35 million, or 10.0 percent, on shipments of 15,500 trailers, or 800 more trailers than the prior year period. This increase in revenue was primarily due to a 5.4 percent increase in trailer shipments during the quarter as well as the ongoing commitment to improve the financial performance within the core trailer business. Driven by higher volumes, an improved pricing environment and continued operational improvements, gross profit and gross profit margin increased $21.5 million and 480 basis points, respectively, as compared to the same period last year. Operating income increased by $20.4 million from the third quarter last year to $45.6 million.
Diversified Products’ net sales increased $4 million, or 3.8 percent, as compared to the previous year period as the increase in tank trailer shipments was partially offset by lower sales of aviation and other non-trailer equipment-related offerings. Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 24.0 percent improved 270 basis points from the prior year period. In addition, gross profit and operating income increased $4.2 million and $3.7 million, respectively, compared to the prior year period. These year-over-year improvements are due primarily to increased tank trailer shipments, strong demand for the Company’s composite products, product mix and the successful execution of diversification initiatives to profitably grow the business.
Retail’s net sales of $42 million decreased 7.2 percent compared with the prior year period primarily due to lower shipments of new trailers, which were partially offset by the continued healthy demand for parts and service throughout the quarter. Gross profit margin improved 190 basis points compared to the prior year period due to a shift in product mix favoring higher-margined parts and service sales. Operating income of $1.3 million increased $0.5 million from the same period last year.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the financial information included in this release contain non-GAAP financial measures, including Operating EBITDA, Operating EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures and results calculated in accordance with GAAP, including net income, and reconciliations to GAAP financial statements should be carefully evaluated.
Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other non-operating income and expense. Management believes Operating EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations. The Company provides this measure because we believe it is useful for investors to understand our performance period to period with the exclusion of the recurring and non-recurring items identified above. Management believes the presentation of Operating EBITDA, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of operating income, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of Operating EBITDA to net income is included in the tables following this release.
Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share reflect adjustments for non-recurring income recognized on the sale of former retail branch locations as well as charges related to losses incurred in connection with the Company’s extinguishment of debt. Historically, we have excluded from these measures the revaluation of deferred income tax assets due to changes in statutory tax rates. Management believes providing this measure and excluding these items facilitate comparisons to the Company’s prior year periods and, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income and diluted net income per share, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share to net income and diluted net income per share is included in the tables following this release.

1Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other non-operating income and expense.
2Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share reflect adjustments for non-recurring income recognized on the sale of former retail branch locations as well as charges related to losses incurred in connection with the Company’s extinguishment of debt. Historically, we have excluded from these measures the revaluation of deferred income tax assets due to changes in statutory tax rates.
