LAKE OSWEGO, Ore., April 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The Greenbrier Companies, Inc. (NYSE: GBX) today reported financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2014.
Second Quarter Highlights
- Net earnings for the quarter were $16.0 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, excluding restructuring charges (net of tax) of $0.4 million, on revenue of $502.2 million.
- Net earnings attributable to Greenbrier for the quarter, which includes restructuring charges, were $15.6 million, or $0.50 per diluted share.
- Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $44.9 million, or 8.9% of revenue.
- New railcar backlog as of February 28, 2014 was 15,200 units with an estimated value of $1.54 billion (average unit sale price of $101,000) compared to 13,500 units with an estimated value of $1.43 billion (average unit sale price of $106,000) on November 30, 2013.
- New railcar deliveries totaled 3,400 units for the quarter, compared to 3,700 units for the quarter ended November 30, 2013.
- Orders totaled 5,800 new railcars valued at $490 million during the quarter. After quarter end, Greenbrier received orders for another 3,100 units valued at approximately $265 million.
- Marine backlog as of February 28, 2014 totaled $70 million and reflects orders for four vessels during the quarter.
- Repurchased 260,717 shares of common stock at a cost of $9.4 million during the quarter. To date, repurchased 542,000 shares of common stock at a cost of $22 million under a $50 million share repurchase program.
Progress on Strategic Initiatives
- Successfully met $100 million capital efficiency goal. Net debt reduced by over $75 million during the second quarter and about $170 million over the last year; management continues to focus on capital liberation, efficiency and ROIC.
- Fourth quarter 2014 goal of a minimum 13.5% gross margin remains unchanged.
- Company will enhance its manufacturing footprint; nearly double tank car manufacturing capacity and increase tank car repair and retrofit capacity to support expected growing demand.
- To date, closed or sold seven underperforming or non-core facilities in the Wheels, Repair & Parts segment; restructuring and realignment continues in this business segment.
William A. Furman, chairman of the board and chief executive officer, said, "Broad based orders drove backlog at the end of the second quarter to 15,200 units, our second highest level in four years. This momentum continued subsequent to quarter end, with additional orders for 3,100 units. The energy sector continues to drive demand for small-cubed covered hoppers and tank cars, while intermodal, grain and automotive demand were also strong. In addition, our Marine business received orders for four barges during the second quarter with demand beginning to accelerate."
"Earnings were level with our first quarter, notwithstanding a decline in aggregate gross margin, which resulted from manufacturing line changeovers, low marine and new railcar production rates at our Gunderson facility in Portland, Oregon, and the impact of the severe winter. With the manufacturing line changeovers now complete, and with Gunderson now operating at higher marine and railcar production rates, we expect manufacturing margins to grow in the second half of the year. Performance at our Wheels, Repair & Parts segment improved from last quarter; however, certain of our larger significant repair facilities continue to fall short of our expectations. We are keenly focused on improving the performance of these facilities. We believe that the initiatives undertaken in the first half of the year, along with improved weather, will result in sequential improvement for this segment in the second half of the year. Our Leasing & Services business remains strong. We continue to reduce the amount of long-term capital invested in this business and drive more volume through our lease syndication and asset management model. Working with multiple investors, we are realizing meaningful value from this segment. We are committed to achieving at least a 13.5% aggregate gross margin by our fourth quarter," Furman added.
Liquidity & Business Outlook
Furman concluded, "We ended February with over $470 million of liquidity from cash balances and available borrowings on revolving credit facilities. In March, we refinanced $125 million in senior term debt with new six-year $200 million senior term debt (both secured by railcars on lease), increasing our liquidity to over $500 million. With a strong backlog and positive outlook, we are investing in capital projects with high returns and quick paybacks. These projects include replacing existing higher cost leased manufacturing capacity in Mexico with a more efficient alternative site and expanding capacity at existing facilities in Mexico. The result will be a more flexible, lower-cost manufacturing footprint better suited to our production needs, particularly for tank cars, where Greenbrier plans to nearly double capacity over the next 18 months. This capacity will support anticipated heightened demand for our "Tank Car of the Future" and replacement demand for older DOT-111 cars. We will continue to expand our tank car and retrofit capacity and capabilities, and will certify our largest repair facility in Cleburne, Texas, to perform tank car work. This facility, which can handle tank car unit trains, is ideally situated on the transportation corridor between shale oil and gas-producing areas and refining and distribution operations near the Gulf of Mexico."
Based on current business trends and industry forecasts, in fiscal 2014 Greenbrier continues to believe:
- Deliveries will exceed 15,000 units
- Revenue will exceed $2 billion
- EPS, excluding restructuring charges, will be in the range of $2.45 to $2.70
As disclosed previously, financial results in the second half of the year are expected to be stronger than the first half. Also, while gross margin is expected to increase overall, management does not believe its track will be linear.

Except as otherwise required by law, we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
Net earnings excluding restructuring charges, Adjusted EBITDA, and Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges are not financial measures under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We define Net earnings excluding restructuring charges as Net earnings before restructuring charges (after-tax). We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net earnings attributable to Greenbrier before interest and foreign exchange, income tax expense, restructuring charges and depreciation and amortization. We define Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges as Net earnings excluding restructuring charges before interest and debt issuance costs (net of tax) on convertible notes divided by Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. Net earnings excluding restructuring charges, Adjusted EBITDA, and Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges are performance measurement tools used by Greenbrier. You should not consider Net earnings excluding restructuring charges, Adjusted EBITDA, and Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges in isolation or as a substitute for other financial statement data determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA and Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, the Adjusted EBITDA and Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges measures presented may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net earnings before interest and foreign exchange, income tax expense, restructuring charges, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measurement tool commonly used by rail supply companies and Greenbrier. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for other financial statement data determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, the Adjusted EBITDA measure presented may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. |

Supplemental Information (In thousands, except per share amounts, unaudited)
Reconciliation of common shares outstanding and diluted earnings per share |
||||
The shares used in the computation of the Company's basic and diluted earnings per common share and Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges are reconciled as follows: |
||||

34,462 |
||
(1) |
Restricted stock grants and restricted stock units, including some grants subject to certain performance criteria, are included in Weighted average basic common shares outstanding when the Company is in a net earnings position. |
(2) |
The dilutive effect of the 2018 Convertible notes are included in the Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding as they were considered dilutive under the "if converted" method as further discussed below. The dilutive effect of the 2026 Convertible notes was excluded from the share calculations as the stock price for each period presented was less than the initial conversion price of $48.05 and therefore considered anti-dilutive. |
Diluted earnings per share was calculated using the more dilutive of two approaches. The first approach includes the dilutive effect of outstanding warrants and shares underlying the 2026 Convertible notes in the share count using the treasury stock method. The second approach supplements the first by including the "if converted" effect of the 2018 Convertible notes issued in March 2011. Under the "if converted method" debt issuance and interest costs, both net of tax, associated with the convertible notes are added back to net earnings and the share count is increased by the shares underlying the convertible notes. The 2026 Convertible notes would only be included in the calculation of both approaches if the current stock price is greater than the initial conversion price of $48.05 using the treasury stock method.

Net earnings excluding restructuring charges is not a financial measure under GAAP. We define Net earnings excluding restructuring charges as Net earnings attributable to Greenbrier before restructuring charges (after-tax). Net earnings excluding restructuring charges is a performance measurement tool used by Greenbrier. You should not consider Net earnings excluding restructuring charges in isolation or as a substitute for other financial statement data determined in accordance with GAAP. |
(2) |
Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges is not a financial measure under GAAP. We define Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges as Net earnings excluding restructuring charges before interest and debt issuance costs (net of tax) on convertible notes divided by Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges is a performance measurement tool used by Greenbrier. You should not consider Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges in isolation or as a substitute for other financial statement data determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, the Diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges measure presented may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. |
