GATX Corporation Reports 2009 Third Quarter Results
Thursday, October 22, 2009 9:53 AM


(Source: Business Wire)trackingGATX Corporation (NYSE:GMT) today reported 2009 third quarter net income of $19.6 million or $.42 per diluted share, compared to 2008 third quarter net income of $73.9 million or $1.46 per diluted share. Third quarter 2008 results include after-tax benefits of $24.4 million or $.48 per diluted share of income from the sale of real estate in Europe, a reversal of certain European environmental reserves, and unrealized gains related to certain interest rate swaps at GATX's AAE Cargo affiliate (AAE).

Net income for the first nine months of 2009 was $59.9 million or $1.24 per diluted share, compared to $165.9 million or $3.31 per diluted share in the prior year period. The 2009 year-to-date results include after-tax unrealized losses of $18.5 million or $.38 per diluted share related to the AAE interest rate swaps. The 2008 year-to-date results include $26.4 million or $.52 per diluted share in aggregate benefits from the reversal of an income tax accrual reported in the first quarter, income from the sale of real estate and the reversal of certain environmental reserves in Europe, and net unrealized gains from the AAE interest rate swaps.

"Our markets remain extremely challenging and competitive," said Brian A. Kenney, president and chief executive officer of GATX. "We maintained our rail fleet's utilization at almost 96% in the third quarter. However, lease rates continued to decline. While we have shortened the term of lease renewals in 2009 in anticipation of an eventual market recovery, the current pressure on rates will have a dampening effect on lease income through 2010.

"Charter rates at the marine joint ventures in Specialty remain well below rates in recent years, with little change between the second and third quarters of 2009. At American Steamship Company (ASC), vessel demand has moved up slightly as steel manufacturers recently restarted a small number of blast furnaces. However, ASC continues to operate in a difficult environment with dramatically lower demand for iron ore shipments than in previous years.

"Investment volume was approximately $186 million in the third quarter. Asset prices have declined dramatically from 2007 peaks, a positive for companies like GATX with the capacity and interest in purchasing assets."

Mr. Kenney concluded, "We continue to expect 2009 full-year earnings to be in the range of $2.00 per diluted share, excluding the unrealized losses noted above. Despite the market conditions, GATX is well positioned to manage through this downturn and is focused on strengthening our position in the market while generating attractive long-term returns for our shareholders."

RAIL

Rail segment profit was $47.8 million in the third quarter of 2009, compared to third quarter 2008 segment profit of $106.3 million. The third quarter results for 2008 include $29.4 million of pre-tax benefits from the sale of real estate in Europe, a reversal of certain European environmental reserves, and unrealized gains related to certain interest rate swaps at AAE. Rail reported segment profit of $135.2 million year-to-date 2009, compared to $250.4 million in the same period 2008. The 2009 year-to-date results include pre-tax unrealized losses of $22.0 million related to the AAE interest rate swaps noted above. The 2008 year-to-date results include $23.9 million of pre-tax benefits from the sale of real estate in Europe, a reversal of certain European environmental reserves, and net unrealized gains from the AAE interest rate swaps. Scrap gains (included in "Other income") at Rail were $6.2 million in year-to-date 2009 versus $25.9 million in 2008 reflecting a decline in scrap prices.

At September 30, 2009, Rail's North American fleet totaled approximately 111,000 cars. Fleet utilization was 95.9% compared to 96.0% at the end of the second quarter and 97.9% at year end. Renewal lease rates in the Lease Price Index (LPI) declined 8.5% over the expiring rate, compared to a 9.8% decline in the second quarter 2009 and a decline of 0.3% in the third quarter 2008. The average renewal term in the third quarter was 39 months, compared to 36 months in the second quarter 2009 and 57 months in the third quarter of 2008. Rail's European wholly-owned tank car fleet totaled approximately 20,000 cars and utilization was 94.7%, compared to 95.6% at the end of the second quarter and 97.1% at year end.

Additional current and historical fleet and operating data as well as macroeconomic data related to Rail's business can be found on the last page of this press release.

SPECIALTY

Specialty reported segment profit of $13.2 million in the third quarter of 2009 compared to $31.9 million in third quarter 2008. Year to date, Specialty reported segment profit of $43.5 million, compared to $92.4 million in the same period in 2008. The year-over-year decline in segment profit was primarily due to decreased remarketing income and lower share of affiliates' earnings as the marine market remains soft compared to recent years and certain vessels were inactive for repairs.

The Specialty portfolio currently consists of $676.9 million of owned assets (including on and off balance sheet assets) and third-party managed portfolios totaling $262.3 million.

AMERICAN STEAMSHIP COMPANY

American Steamship Company (ASC) reported segment profit of $1.3 million in the third quarter 2009 compared to $13.9 million in the third quarter 2008. Segment profit year-to-date 2009 was $10.1 million, which included income of $5.6 million from receipt of a litigation settlement in the first quarter 2009. These results compare to segment profit of $19.8 million year-to-date 2008, which was negatively impacted by $2.9 million in the second quarter 2008 when ASC received an adverse ruling in a litigation matter. Steel mill capacity utilization is down dramatically from the prior year and ASC's tonnage volumes have declined accordingly. Year-to-date 2009, ASC has carried 12.6 million net tons compared to 26.6 million net tons carried year-to-date 2008, with the most significant decline evident in iron ore shipments.

 (a) LPI is an internally generated business indicator that measures general lease pricing on renewals. The index reflects the weighted average lease rate for a selected group of railcar types that GATX believes to be representative of its overall North American fleet. The LPI measures the percentage change between the weighted average expiring lease rate and the weighted average renewal lease rate.
