Consolidated Results
Trinity Industries, Inc. reported net income attributable to Trinity
stockholders of $538.5 million, or $3.42 per common diluted share, for
the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017. Net income for the same
quarter of 2016 was $67.6 million, or $0.44 per common diluted share.
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2017 totaled $906.4 million compared
to revenues of $1.1 billion for the same quarter of 2016. In the fourth
quarter, the Company incurred approximately $10.6 million of transaction
costs, or $0.04 per share, related to the expected spin-off transaction.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company reported net income
attributable to Trinity stockholders of $702.5 million, or $4.52 per
common diluted share. In 2016, the Company reported net income of $343.6
million, or $2.25 per common diluted share. Revenues for the year ended
December 31, 2017 were $3.7 billion compared to revenues of $4.6 billion
in 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company incurred
approximately $14.2 million of transaction costs, or $0.06 per share,
related to the expected spin-off transaction.
Results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2017 included
a non-cash tax benefit of $476.2 million, or $3.03 and $3.06 per common
diluted share, respectively, related to the effects of the Tax Cuts and
Jobs Act enacted in December 2017. This benefit resulted primarily from
the remeasurement of the Company's net deferred tax liabilities to
reflect the recently enacted 21% United States federal corporate income
tax rate. Excluding the effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the
effective tax rate for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31,
2017 was 36.6% and 36.2%, respectively.
“2017 was an eventful year for our company, with a number of positive
events occurring. From a consolidated financial results standpoint, we
outperformed our original expectations heading into the year. Despite
persistent oversupply conditions throughout the year in the North
American railcar and inland barge markets, our teams were able to
maintain operational flexibility and adjust to demand fluctuations,”
said Timothy R. Wallace, Trinity’s Chairman, CEO and President.
Mr. Wallace continued, “In September, we were very pleased to receive
the reverse and render ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Fifth Circuit in the Company’s federal False Claims Act litigation. Over
the course of 2017, Trinity’s management and Board of Directors
continued to spend a great deal of time evaluating a variety of
strategic options to create shareholder value, culminating in our recent
announcement to spin-off Trinity’s infrastructure-related businesses.
This year will be a transformational year for Trinity as we implement
our plan. We are enthusiastic about the opportunity to maximize
shareholder value through the creation of two strong, independent
companies.”
Quarterly Business Group Results
In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Rail Group reported revenues of
$647.2 million compared to revenues of $816.4 million in the fourth
quarter of 2016. Operating profit and profit margin for the Rail Group
were $77.8 million and 12.0% in the fourth quarter of 2017 compared to
$110.3 million and 13.5% in the fourth quarter of 2016. The decreases in
revenues and operating profit were primarily due to significantly lower
railcar deliveries. The Rail Group delivered 6,150 railcars and received
orders for 3,180 railcars during the fourth quarter of 2017 compared to
7,435 and 1,985 railcars, respectively, in the same quarter last year.
The Rail Group had a backlog of $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2017,
representing 22,585 railcars, compared to a backlog of $2.4 billion as
of September 30, 2017, representing 25,555 railcars.
The Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group (“Leasing Group”)
reported revenues and operating profit of $197.1 million and $128.1
million, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2017, an increase of
10.6% and 46.1%, respectively, compared to the same quarter of 2016.
Included in these results are revenues and operating profit from
operations of $191.2 million and $84.5 million, respectively, compared
to $178.2 million and $87.7 million, respectively, for the fourth
quarter of 2016. The increase in revenues from operations was primarily
due to growth in the lease fleet and compensation received during the
quarter for an order cancellation for 650 railcars negotiated and agreed
to with a customer in October 2017. As previously indicated, the
cancellation fee increased earnings per share for the quarter by $0.07.
The increase in revenues from operations was offset by lower
utilization, a decline in average rental rates and an increase in fleet
maintenance and compliance expenses resulting in lower operating profit.
The Leasing Group also reported revenues and operating profit from the
sale of leased railcars from the lease fleet of $5.9 million and $43.6
million, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2017. There were no
sales of leased railcars in the fourth quarter of 2016. Total proceeds
from the sale of leased railcars including the sale of railcars owned
for more than one year that are not included in revenues, were $206.3
million for the fourth quarter of 2017. Supplemental information for the
Leasing Group is provided in the accompanying tables.
The Inland Barge Group reported revenues of $33.6 million in the fourth
quarter of 2017 compared to revenues of $75.1 million in the fourth
quarter of 2016. Operating profit for this Group was $0.2 million in the
fourth quarter of 2017 compared to a profit of $6.7 million in the
fourth quarter of 2016. The decreases in revenues and operating profit
compared to the same quarter last year were primarily due to
significantly lower barge deliveries. The Inland Barge Group received
orders of $5.8 million during the quarter and, as of December 31, 2017,
had a backlog of $98.2 million compared to a backlog of $126.0 million
as of September 30, 2017.
The Energy Equipment Group reported revenues of $234.8 million in the
fourth quarter of 2017 compared to revenues of $257.0 million in the
same quarter of 2016. Operating profit and profit margin for this Group
were $20.5 million and 8.7% compared to $29.6 million and 11.5% in the
same quarter last year. A decrease in volumes in the Group's structural
wind towers product line was partially offset by higher revenues in the
Group's utility structures product line. The backlog for structural wind
towers as of December 31, 2017 was $780.8 million compared to a backlog
of $847.3 million as of September 30, 2017.
The Construction Products Group reported revenues of $118.3 million in
the fourth quarter of 2017 compared to revenues of $112.7 million in the
fourth quarter of 2016. Operating profit and profit margin were $11.6
million and 9.8% in the fourth quarter of 2017 compared to $11.4 million
and 10.1% in the same quarter last year. The increases in revenues and
operating profit compared to the same quarter last year were primarily
due to the acquisition of a trench shoring business during the third
quarter of 2017, partially offset by lower volumes in our highway
products and construction aggregates businesses.
Cash and Liquidity
At December 31, 2017, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and
short-term marketable securities of $1.1 billion. When combined with
capacity under committed credit facilities, the Company had
approximately $2.5 billion of available liquidity at the end of the
fourth quarter.
Share Repurchase
In December 2017, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a new $500
million share repurchase program effective January 1, 2018 through
December 31, 2019, replacing the previous share repurchase program which
expired on December 31, 2017. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the
Company repurchased 883,200 shares of common stock at a cost of $33.0
million under the expiring program. During 2017, the Company repurchased
2,825,400 shares of common stock at a cost of $85.4 million.
Proposed Spin-off
On December 12, 2017, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
unanimously approved a plan to pursue a spin-off of the Company's
infrastructure-related businesses to Trinity stockholders. The
separation is planned as a tax-free spin-off transaction to the
Company's stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The
transaction is expected to result in two separate public companies: (1)
Trinity, the currently existing company, which will be comprised
primarily of Trinity’s rail-related businesses and (2) a new
infrastructure company, focused on infrastructure-related products and
services.
Completion of the spin-off will be subject to, among other things, the
effectiveness of appropriate filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, final approval from the Company's Board of Directors, and
other customary conditions. The Company may, at any time and for any
reason until the proposed transaction is complete, abandon the
separation or modify or change its terms. The separation is expected to
be completed in the fourth quarter of 2018, but there can be no
assurance regarding the ultimate timing of the separation or that the
separation will ultimately occur.
Earnings Guidance for 2018
The 2018 earnings guidance reflects consolidated results for the Company
and has not been adjusted to incorporate the completion of a potential
spin-off transaction.
For the full year 2018, the Company anticipates earnings of between
$1.15 and $1.35 per common diluted share, excluding transaction costs of
approximately $25 million that the Company expects to incur related to
the potential spin-off and with a revised effective tax rate of 24% as a
result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Total earnings for the full year
2018, including the additional transaction costs, are anticipated to be
between $1.00 and $1.20 per common diluted share. This compares to the
Company's previous guidance of between $0.90 and $1.25 per share which
did not include any spin-off related costs and assumed an effective tax
rate of 36%.
The Company now anticipates 2018 railcar deliveries of 20,500, compared
to deliveries of 18,395 railcars in 2017. The Company also anticipates
sales of leased railcars of approximately $350 million in 2018.
Supplemental information for the Company’s 2018 full year guidance and
outlook is provided at the end of the accompanying tables.
Actual results in 2018 may differ from present expectations and could be
impacted by a number of factors including, among others, the risk
factors disclosed in "Risk Factors" and "Forward-Looking Statements" in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the most recent fiscal year.

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 a participating security. The unvested restricted
shares are excluded from the weighted average number of shares
outstanding for the purposes of determining earnings per share. The
two-class method results in a lower earnings per share than is
calculated from the face of the income statement. See Earnings Per Share
Calculation table below.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017.
The Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to
21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of
certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and
creates new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings. As of December
31, 2017, we have completed an initial assessment of the tax effects of
the Act, and have made a reasonable estimate of the effects on our
existing deferred tax balances. We remeasured certain deferred tax
assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to
impact future tax returns. However, we are still analyzing certain
aspects of the Act and refining our calculations, which could
potentially affect the measurement of these balances or potentially give
rise to new deferred tax amounts resulting in adjustments in future
periods in 2018. The impact of the Act may differ from our estimate due
to changes in the regulations, rulings, guidance, and interpretations
issued by the IRS and the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
as well as interpretations and assumptions made by the Company. For the
items for which we were able to determine a reasonable estimate, we
recognized a provisional net benefit of $476.2 million or $3.03 per
common diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2017, which
is included as a component of provision (benefit) for income taxes.

* Not meaningful
|
|
|
| (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) Depreciation, maintenance and compliance, and rent
expense are components of operating profit. Amortization of deferred
profit on railcars sold from the Rail 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.

Reconciliation of EBITDA |
|
(in millions)
|
(unaudited)
|
|
|
“EBITDA” is defined as net income plus interest expense, income taxes,
and depreciation and amortization including goodwill impairment charges.
EBITDA is not a calculation based on generally accepted accounting
principles. The amounts included in the EBITDA calculation are, however,
derived from amounts included in the historical consolidated statements
of operations data. In addition, EBITDA should not be considered as an
alternative to net income or operating income as an indicator of our
operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a
measure of liquidity. We believe EBITDA assists investors in comparing a
company’s performance on a consistent basis without regard to
depreciation and amortization, which can vary significantly depending
upon many factors. However, the EBITDA measure presented in this press
release may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures by
other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation.
