GATX Corporation Reports 2023 Second-Quarter Results

  • Rail North America’s fleet utilization remained high at 99.3%
  • Investment volume was $486.6 million in the second quarter and totaled $873.6 million year to date
  • GATX's second-quarter direct investment of aircraft spare engines totaled $239 million
  • Company expects to be at the upper end of or modestly exceed the previously announced 2023 full-year earnings guidance range

GATX Corporation (NYSE: GATX) today reported 2023 second-quarter net income of $63.3 million, or $1.74 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022. The 2023 second-quarter results include a net positive impact of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. The 2022 second-quarter results include a net negative impact of $35.9 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items.

Net income for the first six months of 2023 was $140.7 million, or $3.87 per diluted share, compared to $78.4 million, or $2.18 per diluted share, in the prior year period. The 2023 year-to-date results include a net negative impact of $1.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. The 2022 year-to-date results include a net negative impact of $44.4 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. Details related to these items are provided in the attached Supplemental Information under Tax Adjustments and Other Items.

"We see continued strong demand globally for the majority of railcar types in our existing fleets," said Robert C. Lyons, president and chief executive officer of GATX. "Rail North America’s fleet utilization was 99.3% at the end of the second quarter and our renewal success rate was 85.3%. The renewal lease rate change of GATX’s Lease Price Index was positive 33.1% for the quarter, with an average renewal term of 61 months. Our commercial team remains focused on improving renewal lease rates and lengthening lease terms on many car types.

"Rail International performed well and continued to experience higher renewal lease rates compared to expiring rates for most railcar types. For the second consecutive quarter, GATX Rail Europe and GATX Rail India expanded their fleets with a combined total of nearly 1,000 newly built railcars."

Mr. Lyons added, "In Portfolio Management, results were driven by improved performance at the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates as international air passenger demand continues to recover. In addition, we identified attractive opportunities to increase our direct investment in aircraft spare engines, acquiring nine additional engines for $239 million during the quarter."

Mr. Lyons concluded, "Based on year-to-date performance and our outlook for the remainder of the year, we expect our 2023 full-year earnings to be at the upper end of or modestly exceed our previously announced guidance range of $6.50–$6.90 per diluted share, with variability around this guidance driven primarily by the timing of remarketing events. This guidance excludes any impact from Tax Adjustments and Other Items."

RAIL NORTH AMERICA

Rail North America reported segment profit of $79.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $53.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. Year to date 2023, Rail North America reported segment profit of $174.5 million, compared to $173.5 million in the same period of 2022. Higher 2023 second-quarter and year-to-date results were due to higher lease revenue and higher gains on asset dispositions, partially offset by higher interest and maintenance expenses.

At June 30, 2023, Rail North America’s wholly owned fleet was composed of approximately 109,500 cars, including approximately 9,000 boxcars. The following fleet statistics and performance discussion exclude the boxcar fleet. Fleet utilization was 99.3% at the end of the second quarter of 2023, compared to 99.3% at the end of the prior quarter and 99.4% at the end of the second quarter of 2022.

During the second quarter of 2023, the renewal lease rate change of the LPI was positive 33.1%. This compares to positive 28.3% in the prior quarter and positive 6.1% in the second quarter of 2022. The average lease renewal term for all cars included in the LPI during the second quarter of 2023 was 61 months, compared to 55 months in the prior quarter and 51 months in the second quarter of 2022. The 2023 second-quarter renewal success rate was 85.3%, compared to 77.9% in the prior quarter and 87.7% in the second quarter of 2022. Rail North America’s investment volume during the second quarter of 2023 was $161.3 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 $27.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $28.3 million in the second quarter of 2022. Year to date 2023, Rail International reported segment profit of $50.8 million, compared to $53.2 million in the same period of 2022. Results in the comparative periods were favorably impacted by more railcars on lease and negatively impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

At June 30, 2023, GATX Rail Europe’s (GRE) fleet consisted of approximately 28,800 cars. Utilization was 96.9%, compared to 98.5% at the end of the prior quarter and 99.9% at the end of the second quarter of 2022. Demand for the majority of railcar types remains solid, with the decline in utilization driven primarily by weakness in the European intermodal sector. Additional fleet statistics for GRE are provided on the last page of this press release.

During the quarter, GATX Rail India took delivery of over 570 newly built cars, bringing its total fleet to over 6,900 railcars at the end of the second quarter. Demand for railcars in India remains robust, driven by continued growth in the economy and infrastructure development.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

Portfolio Management reported segment profit of $26.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to segment loss of $15.7 million in the second quarter of 2022. Year to date 2023, segment profit was $54.9 million, compared to segment loss of $19.6 million in the same period of 2022.

2023 and 2022 second-quarter results include a net positive impact of $0.2 million and a net negative impact of $31.5 million, respectively, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. 2023 and 2022 year-to-date results include net negative impacts of $1.4 million and $46.8 million, respectively, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. Additional details are provided in the attached Supplemental Information under Tax Adjustments and Other Items.

Excluding these impacts, higher 2023 second-quarter and year-to-date segment results were driven primarily by increased earnings from the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance (RRPF) affiliates and GATX Engine Leasing, the Company’s wholly owned engine portfolio. Higher affiliate earnings from RRPF was due to improved performance across the existing engine leasing portfolio and higher remarketing income.

________

(1)

 

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 and diluted earnings per share 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.

(2)

 

In the second quarter of 2022, we made the decision to sell the Specialized Gas Vessels. As a result, we recorded losses in 2022 associated with the impairments of these assets. In 2023, we recorded gains and losses associated with the impairments and subsequent sales of these assets.

(3)

 

In the third quarter of 2022, we made the decision to exit our rail business in Russia ("Rail Russia") and recorded losses in 2022 associated with the impairment of the net assets. In the first quarter of 2023, we sold Rail Russia and recorded a gain on the final sale of this business.

(4)

 

Reserve recorded as part of an executed agreement for anticipated remediation costs at a previously owned property, sold in 1974.

(5)

 

Deferred income tax adjustment due to an enacted corporate income tax rate reduction in Austria in 2022.

(6)

 

Impairment losses related to aircraft spare engines in Russia that RRPF does not expect to recover.

GATX's Lease Price Index (LPI) is an internally-generated business indicator that measures renewal activity for our North American railcar 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. The average renewal lease term is reported in months and reflects the average renewal lease term in the LPI.

 

 

In the second quarter of 2023, we modified the methodology of the LPI calculation to more consistently reflect actual trends in renewal lease rates and renewal lease terms across the North American non-boxcar fleet. We believe this modification will provide investors and other constituents with a more complete representation of lease rate and term performance. The prior period LPI metrics presented above have been updated to reflect the change in calculation. For further details, please see the GATX press release dated July 6, 2023.

(2)

 

The renewal success rate represents the percentage of railcars on expiring leases that were renewed with the existing lessee. The renewal success rate is an important metric because railcars returned by our customers may remain idle or incur additional maintenance and freight costs prior to being leased to new customers.

Excludes boxcar fleet.

As reported and revised by the Federal Reserve.
