TRN Trinity Industries Inc

Reports quarterly GAAP and Adjusted earnings from continuing operations of $1.33 and $0.11 per diluted share, respectively

Generates operating and free cash flow before leasing investment of $174 million and $206 million, respectively

Returns $58 million of capital to stockholders

Total committed liquidity of $760 million at the end of first quarter

Trinity Industries, Inc. (NYSE:TRN) today announced earnings results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

“Coming into 2020, Trinity was rapidly and effectively executing on a number of optimization efforts to align with the Company’s go-forward business strategy as well as responding to the decline in railcar demand from the slowing industrial economy in the preceding year,” said Jean Savage, Trinity Industries CEO and President. “Our first quarter results reflect solid progress on a number of actions taken to improve the performance of the business. While we have not lost sight of our longer-term goals, the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic is unprecedented, and our first priority is the health and safety of our employees and the residents of the communities in which we live and work. The United States government cited the rail and highway industries as critical infrastructure to our country’s response efforts to this pandemic. I applaud our dedicated employees for their service and commitment to business continuity and keeping critical supply chains operational for essential goods and services to move across North America.”

Ms. Savage continued, “We expect COVID-19 to have a negative impact on demand for our products and services, clouding our forecasting abilities and limiting visibility into our financial performance for 2020. Trinity’s leadership team has stress tested our business model in several scenarios, and we continue to expect positive cash flow generation from our platform of businesses. Based on our current knowledge and analysis of market conditions, we believe the resiliency of Trinity’s rail platform, solid cash flow generation, and strong liquidity and balance sheet position the Company to withstand the volatile disruption from the global pandemic and take advantage of potential opportunities that can lead to long-term value creation.”

Liquidity Update

As of March 31, 2020, we had total committed liquidity of $759.7 million, which includes $213.2 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $284.5 million available under our revolving credit facility, and $262.0 million unused and available under the TILC warehouse facility. Our revolving credit facility also contains a $200.0 million expansion feature that can be accessed subject to certain conditions. Additionally, as a result of certain provisions of the CARES Act, Trinity anticipates receiving tax refunds in 2020 totaling approximately $303 million, further bolstering the Company’s strong liquidity position.

2020 Business Update

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on global and North American social and economic conditions, and the situation surrounding the virus continues to be volatile and widespread. Trinity’s manufacturing businesses operate within critical infrastructure sectors as currently established by the United States Department of Homeland Security and the Mexico Federal Ministry of Health and Federal Ministry of Communications and Transportation. Our rail manufacturing and maintenance businesses in North America and highway products operations in the United States continue to operate subject to significantly enhanced voluntary and government mandated safety protocols designed to protect the health of our operations workforce. We have taken and will continue to implement measures to protect the safety of our employees and closely monitor the impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of our businesses.

Because Trinity was able to respond to the pandemic without significant interruptions to the Company’s daily operations, the pandemic did not materially impact our financial results for the first quarter of 2020. To date, our Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group ("Leasing Group") has not experienced any significant increase in lease payment delinquencies, and has granted rent payment extensions to a relatively small number of railcar lessees upon a credit review. We expect there to be adjustments to our 2020 production plans as customers may need to defer new railcar equipment investments based on specific business needs.

In March 2020, Trinity performed a comprehensive review of potential operational and financial impacts that could stem from the COVID-19 pandemic, and has taken appropriate measures to preserve cash and further bolster liquidity. We also reviewed our goodwill and long-lived assets for potential impairment, and concluded that no such impairment charges were necessary at the time. In addition to cost savings initiatives already underway, the Company eliminated many non-essential expenditures where possible and rightsized our workforce in response to current operating conditions. Trinity believes the Company is in a strong liquidity position with sufficient resources to fund the operating requirements of the business and other capital allocation and investment activities planned for 2020.

The Company expects that the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic will negatively impact our financial results in the near term. Given the uncertainty in the market about the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on the North American economy, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the likelihood of the financial impact on performance. Trinity is closely monitoring business conditions and will make appropriate adjustments to our operations and related financial scenarios as necessary.

Consolidated Results

Trinity Industries, Inc. reported net income from continuing operations attributable to Trinity stockholders of $161.9 million, or $1.33 per common diluted share, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020. Net income from continuing operations attributable to Trinity stockholders for the same quarter of 2019 was $31.7 million, or $0.24 per common diluted share. On an adjusted basis, earnings per common diluted share for the first quarter of 2020 decreased year over year to $0.11, which excludes the impacts of restructuring activities, early redemption of debt, and the tax impact of the CARES Act. Revenues for the first quarter of 2020 increased slightly to $615.2 million compared with revenues of $604.8 million for the same quarter of 2019 primarily due to a higher volume of railcars sold from our lease fleet.

In connection with our assessment of future needs to support our rail-focused strategy, the Company recognized net pre-tax restructuring charges of $5.5 million, or approximately $0.04 per common diluted share, in the first quarter of 2020. The charge was primarily attributable to write-downs related to our corporate headquarters and employee transition costs, partially offset by a gain on the disposition of a non-operating facility.

As a result of the reinstatement of the tax-loss carryback provisions under the CARES Act, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $154.7 million, or $1.29 per common diluted share, during the first quarter. The CARES Act includes loss carryback provisions that will allow the Company to utilize tax losses generated in recent years (primarily due to accelerated tax depreciation associated with our investment in the lease fleet) to recover taxes paid for the 2013 - 2015 tax years, which were years of elevated Company performance. The Company's effective tax rates, excluding the impact of the CARES Act, were 47.7% and 22.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Quarterly Business Group Results

Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group

In the first quarter of 2020, the Leasing Group increased its revenues and operating profit to $236.3 million and $92.9 million, respectively, compared with $200.4 million and $85.8 million, respectively, in the same quarter of 2019. The increase in the Leasing Group's revenues was primarily due to a higher volume of railcars sold from the lease fleet, growth in the lease fleet, and higher average lease rates, partially offset by lower utilization when compared to the first quarter of 2019. The company-owned lease fleet, which includes wholly-owned, partially-owned, and railcars under sale-leaseback arrangements, grew to 103,815 units as of March 31, 2020, an increase of approximately 2.8% in comparison to March 31, 2019. The total owned and managed lease fleet now stands at 129,655 railcars at the end of the first quarter.

The increase in operating profit for the first quarter was primarily due to growth in the lease fleet, lower rent expense, and higher profits from railcar sales. Additionally, operating profit for the first quarter of 2020 benefited from lower depreciation expense associated with the previously disclosed revisions to the estimated useful lives and salvage values of certain railcar types in our lease fleet, which became effective January 1, 2020. The decrease in depreciation expense was partially offset by higher depreciation associated with growth in the lease fleet.

Total sales of leased railcars were $112.8 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared with $42.7 million in the first quarter of 2019. These totals include sales of railcars owned for more than one year that are not reported as revenues. Supplemental information for the Leasing Group is provided in the accompanying tables.

Rail Products Group

The Rail Products Group reported revenues of $509.4 million during the quarter, a decrease when compared with revenues of $627.9 million in the first quarter of 2019. Operating profit and operating profit margin for the Rail Products Group decreased to $25.1 million and 4.9%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2020 compared with $47.1 million and 7.5%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2019. The decrease in revenues and operating profit primarily resulted from lower railcar deliveries and operational inefficiencies related to reduced production volumes compared to the prior year period.

In connection with the implementation of our rail-focused strategy, in the first quarter of 2020, we realigned certain logistics and central maintenance support activities previously reported in the All Other segment to now be presented within the Rail Products Group. The prior period results have been recast to reflect these changes and present results on a comparable basis.

The Rail Products Group received orders for 1,970 railcars with a value of $227.5 million and delivered 3,705 railcars during the first quarter of 2020, compared with orders for 3,000 railcars and deliveries of 4,505 railcars, respectively, in the same quarter last year. In addition, the Rail Products Group reported first quarter backlog reductions of 540 railcars because of a change in the customers' underlying financial condition. These adjustments remove any remaining exposure in the ending backlog associated with the crude oil and frac sand markets. The railcar backlog in the Rail Products Group decreased during the quarter to $1.6 billion as of March 31, 2020, representing 12,810 railcars, compared with a railcar backlog of $1.8 billion as of December 31, 2019, representing 15,085 railcars.

All Other Group

In the first quarter of 2020, the All Other Group, which now primarily includes the results of our highway products business, reported revenues of $63.4 million, a slight increase when compared to revenues of $62.1 million in the first quarter of 2019. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher demand and resulting shipping volumes in our highway products business. Operating profit for the All Other Group was $9.3 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared with $10.1 million in the first quarter of 2019. The decline in operating profit was primarily related to insurance recoveries recognized in the prior year.

Corporate

Corporate costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were $28.1 million, compared to $23.6 million in the first quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily the result of consulting costs associated with realigning our corporate structure to support our rail-focused strategy. Additionally, corporate costs for the first quarter of 2019 benefited from a favorable litigation-related recovery.

Progress on Other 2020 Priorities

Cost Optimization

In the first quarter, in connection with the Company's continued assessment of future needs to support our rail-focused strategy and to optimize the performance of the business, the Company recognized a pre-tax restructuring charge of $5.5 million, primarily from the write-down of our corporate headquarters campus and employee transition costs, partially offset by a gain on the sale of a non-operating facility. Trinity currently anticipates that the headcount reductions completed in the first quarter of 2020 will generate approximately $9 million to $10 million in future cost savings on an annualized basis. These activities, in addition to a number of actions the Company is taking, will achieve the previously provided SE&A and other cost reductions goal of $25 million to $30 million for 2020. As the Company continues to reposition the organization to better support Trinity's rail-focused strategy and drive innovation and platform efficiency, we anticipate identifying further cost savings opportunities.

Early Redemption of Leasing Securitization

In late February 2020, Trinity Rail Leasing V, L.P., a limited partnership (“TRL V”) and a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company owned through Trinity Industries Leasing Company, issued a redemption notice for its 2006 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes due May 2036, of which $104.7 million was outstanding at the redemption date. We completed the redemption of this securitization in March 2020. In connection with the early redemption, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $5.0 million, which included a $4.7 million early redemption premium and $0.3 million in unamortized debt issuance costs. The loss on extinguishment of debt is included in interest expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. The interest coupon for this securitization was at 5.9%. The net book value of the assets securing TRL V at the time of redemption was $303.3 million.

Capital Allocation - Business Investment

During the first quarter of 2020, Trinity invested $60.7 million in railcars for the growth of the leased railcar portfolio, net of all proceeds from the sales of leased railcars. Additionally, Trinity has invested $14.0 million in manufacturing and other capital expenditures for both maintenance of our ongoing operations and to support construction in progress for expansion primarily within our maintenance services business and specialty lining capacity.

Return of Capital to Stockholders

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares at a cost of $35.4 million. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had a remaining authorization to repurchase up to $89.9 million of its common stock under the current repurchase program, which expires at the end of 2020.

When combining capital returned to stockholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases, Trinity returned $58.1 million to stockholders in the first quarter of 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have included financial measures compiled in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and certain non-GAAP measures in this earnings press release to provide management and investors with additional information regarding our financial results. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reporting results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. For each non-GAAP financial measure, a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure has been included in the accompanying tables. Quantitative reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures have not been provided because management cannot, without unreasonable effort, predict the timing and amounts of certain items included in the computations of each of these measures. These factors include, but are not limited to: the product mix of expected railcar deliveries; the timing and amount of significant transactions and investments, such as railcar sales from the lease fleet, capital expenditures, and returns of capital to shareholders; and the amount and timing of certain other items outside the normal course of our core business operations, such as restructuring activities and pension plan termination charges.

Trinity is required to utilize the two-class method of accounting when calculating earnings per share as a result of unvested restricted shares that have non-forfeitable rights to dividends and are, therefore, considered to be participating securities. The calculation of earnings per share using the two-class method excludes income attributable to these participating securities from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those shares from the denominator; therefore, the two-class method may result in a lower earnings per share than is calculated from the face of the income statement.

(1) The Company recognizes sales of railcars from the lease fleet which have been owned by the lease fleet for one year or less as revenue. Sales of railcars from the lease fleet which have been owned by the lease fleet for more than one year are recognized as a net gain or loss from the disposal of a long-term asset.

(2) Operating profit includes: depreciation; maintenance and compliance; rent; and selling, engineering, and administrative expenses. Amortization of deferred profit on railcars sold from the Rail Products Group to the Leasing Group is included in the operating profit of the Leasing Group, resulting in the recognition of depreciation expense based on the Company's original manufacturing cost of the railcars. Interest expense is not a component of operating profit and includes the effect of hedges.

(3) Effective January 1, 2020, we revised the estimated useful lives and salvage values of certain railcar types in our lease fleet. This change in estimate resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense in the three months ended March 31, 2020 of approximately $7.7 million. This decrease was partially offset by higher depreciation associated with growth in the lease fleet.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures

(unaudited)

Adjusted Operating Results

We have supplemented the presentation of our reported GAAP operating profit, interest expense, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, income from continuing operations and diluted income from continuing operations per common share with non-GAAP measures that adjust the GAAP measures to exclude the impact of restructuring activities, asset write-downs, early redemption of debt, the income tax effects of the CARES Act and certain other non-recurring transactions or events (as applicable).These non-GAAP measures are derived from amounts included in our GAAP financial statements and are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the tables below. Management believes that these measures are useful to both management and investors for analyzing the performance of our business without the impact of certain non-recurring items. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reporting results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies.

(1) The effective tax rate for restructuring activities and the early redemption of debt is before consideration of the CARES Act.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow before Capital expenditures – leasing ("Free Cash Flow") is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations as computed in accordance with GAAP, plus cash proceeds from sales of leased railcars owned more than one year at the time of sale, less cash payments for manufacturing capital expenditures and dividends. We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to both management and investors as it provides a relevant measure of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing our ability to fund our operations and repay our debt. Free Cash Flow is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, in the following table. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reporting results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies.

EBITDA

“EBITDA” is defined as income from continuing operations plus interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure; however, the amounts included in the EBITDA calculation are derived from amounts included in our GAAP financial statements. EBITDA is reconciled to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, in the following table. This information is provided to assist management and investors in making meaningful comparisons of our operating performance between periods. We believe EBITDA is a useful measure for analyzing the performance of our business. We also believe that EBITDA is commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as a measure of a company’s operating performance and debt servicing ability because it assists in comparing performance on a consistent basis without regard to capital structure, depreciation or amortization (which can vary significantly depending on many factors). EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reporting results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies.
