GATX Corporation (NYSE:GMT) today reported 2014 first quarter net income of $42.1 million or $0.90 per diluted share, compared to net income of $27.1 million or $0.57 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2013. The 2014 first quarter results include an after-tax benefit of $3.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, from a change in the depreciable lives of the North American railcar fleet. The 2013 first quarter results include the negative impact of $1.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. Details related to Tax Adjustments and Other Items are provided in the attached Supplemental Information.
Effective January 1, 2014, GATX revised the depreciable lives of its North American railcars based on a review of the current economic lives and usage of various railcar types. The change resulted in an increase to the average depreciable life for the fleet of approximately two years.
In late March, GATX acquired a per diem boxcar fleet consisting of approximately 18,500 cars. The fleet utilization and Lease Price Index (“LPI”) data for Rail North America presented in this release exclude this newly acquired fleet.
Brian A. Kenney, president and chief executive officer of GATX, said, “Rail North America’s fleet utilization was 98.5% at the end of the first quarter and our renewal success rate during the quarter was more than 85%. The renewal rate change of our Lease Price Index was a positive 33.9% and the average renewal term for cars in the LPI was 62 months. These favorable results were driven by continued strong demand for tank cars and improving demand for certain freight car types, such as covered hoppers. With the acquisition of the per diem boxcar fleet, GATX is now the largest lessor of boxcars in North America and we are well-positioned to capitalize on the unique trends in this market. Uncertainty related to future regulations governing tank cars which carry flammable liquids intensified during the quarter as shippers, car owners, railroads and legislators all advocated varying positions to regulators about what should be included in the final rules. It is not possible to estimate the extent of any changes to tank car regulations, or what impact they might have on GATX."
Mr. Kenney continued, “Rail International’s performance remains stable as we continue to add newly built cars to our European tank car fleet. American Steamship Company’s 2014 sailing season is off to a slow start due to ice conditions on the Great Lakes. As the sailing season progresses, we expect to benefit from solid demand and higher water levels. Within the Portfolio Management segment, the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates performed very well, while the ocean-going marine vessels continue to experience soft demand and relatively low rates.
“We expect our 2014 full-year earnings to be in the range of $4.15 to $4.35 per diluted share. The increase in our estimate from the range we provided in January is due to the full-year impact of the change in the depreciable lives as noted above. Consistent with prior guidance, we have not incorporated any costs from changes to tank car regulations into our earnings estimate.”
RAIL NORTH AMERICA
Rail North America reported segment profit of $75.0 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $50.3 million in the first quarter of 2013. The improvement in segment profit was driven by increased asset remarketing income and higher lease rates, partially offset by higher maintenance costs due to increased compliance work.
At March 31, 2014, Rail North America’s wholly owned fleet was approximately 108,000 cars, excluding the acquired boxcar fleet. The following fleet statistics and performance discussion exclude the recently acquired per diem boxcar fleet.
Fleet utilization was 98.5% at the end of the first quarter, comparable to the prior quarter and 97.8% at the end of the first quarter of 2013. During the first quarter of 2014, the GATX Lease Price Index (“LPI”), a weighted average lease renewal rate for a group of railcars representative of Rail North America's fleet, increased 33.9% over the weighted average expiring lease rate. This compares to a 37.1% increase in the prior quarter and a 30.8% increase in the first quarter of 2013. The average lease renewal term for cars included in the LPI during the first quarter was 62 months, compared to 60 months in the prior quarter and 65 months in the first quarter of 2013.
Rail North America’s investment volume was nearly $400 million in the first quarter, of which approximately $340 million was for the purchase of the per diem boxcar fleet.
Additional fleet statistics 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 $20.7 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $18.6 million in the first quarter of 2013. The 2013 first quarter results include the negative pre-tax impact from Other Items of $1.4 million. The increase in quarterly segment profit was driven by increased lease revenue due to more railcars on lease and higher lease rates, partially offset by the absence of income from GATX’s interest in a joint venture, which was sold during the third quarter of 2013.
At March 31, 2014, Rail International's fleet consisted of approximately 22,000 cars and utilization was 95.8%, compared to 96.4% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2013 and 93.4% at the end of the first quarter of 2013. Additional fleet statistics for Rail International are provided on the last page of this press release.
AMERICAN STEAMSHIP COMPANY
American Steamship Company (“ASC”) reported a segment loss of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2014 compared to segment profit of $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2013. ASC's operations are typically limited during the first quarter as the vessels are in winter lay-up from mid-January through late March. This year’s operations have been negatively impacted by ice cover on the Great Lakes, which has delayed the start of the sailing season.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Portfolio Management reported segment profit of $11.9 million in the first quarter of 2014 compared to $12.5 million in the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in quarterly segment profit was primarily due to lower asset remarketing income, partially offset by improved results from the Rolls-Royce Partners Finance affiliates.
Owned assets have a net book value of approximately $855 million and third-party managed portfolios have a net book value of approximately $111 million.

| (1) | Rail North America's fleet statistics exclude the per diem boxcar fleet acquisition of approximately 18,500 cars announced on March 24, 2014. | |
| (2) | GATX's Lease Price Index ("LPI") is an internally-generated business indicator that measures lease rate pricing on renewals within our North American railcar fleet. The index is calculated using the weighted average lease rate for a group of railcar types that GATX believes best represents its overall North American fleet. The average renewal lease rate change is reported as the percentage change between the average renewal lease rate and the average expiring lease rate, weighted by fleet composition. The average renewal lease term is reported in months and reflects the average renewal lease term of railcar types in the LPI, weighted by fleet composition. | |
| (3) | As reported and revised by the Federal Reserve. | |
