    GATX Corporation (NYSE: GATX) today reported 2024 first-quarter net income of $74.3 million, or $2.03 per diluted share, compared to net income of $77.4 million, or $2.16 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2023. The 2024 first-quarter results included a net positive impact of $0.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. The 2023 first-quarter results included a net negative impact of $1.3 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. Details related to Tax Adjustments and Other Items are provided in the attached Supplemental Information.

    "We continue to experience solid demand globally for most railcar types in our fleets," said Robert C. Lyons, president and chief executive officer of GATX. "At Rail North America, fleet utilization remained high at 99.4% at the end of the first quarter and the renewal success rate during the quarter was very strong at 83.4%. The renewal lease rate change of GATX’s Lease Price Index was positive 33%, with an average renewal term of 64 months. In the first quarter, we generated remarketing income of $33 million, reflecting continued depth and strength in the secondary market.

    "Rail International performed as expected and took delivery of over 1,000 new railcars during the quarter. Both Rail Europe and Rail India continued to experience higher renewal lease rates compared to expiring rates for most railcar types. In Engine Leasing, the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates and our wholly owned engine portfolio continue to experience robust demand for aircraft spare engines, driven by continued strength in global air passenger traffic. We anticipate adding new aircraft spare engines to our wholly owned portfolio at a similar level as 2023, with investments likely to occur through the balance of the year."

    Mr. Lyons concluded, “First-quarter investment volume was $379 million and 2024 investment prospects remain favorable. As the year is progressing in line with our original expectations, our 2024 full-year earnings estimate remains unchanged at $7.30–$7.70 per diluted share, excluding the impact of Tax Adjustments and Other Items.”

    RAIL NORTH AMERICA

    Rail North America reported segment profit of $90.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $95.2 million in the first quarter of 2023. Lower 2024 first-quarter segment profit was primarily driven by lower gains on asset dispositions and higher interest expense, partially offset by higher lease revenue.

    As of March 31, 2024, Rail North America’s wholly owned fleet totaled approximately 111,400 cars, including 9,670 boxcars. The following fleet statistics and performance discussion exclude the boxcar fleet.

    Fleet utilization was 99.4% at the end of the first quarter, compared to 99.3% at the end of the prior quarter and 99.3% at the end of the first quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2024, the GATX Lease Price Index (LPI), a weighted-average lease renewal rate for a group of railcars representative of Rail North America’s fleet, was positive 33.0%. This compares to an LPI of positive 33.5% in the prior quarter and positive 28.3% in the first quarter of 2023. The average lease renewal term for all cars included in the LPI during the first quarter was 64 months, compared to 65 months in the prior quarter and 55 months in the first quarter of 2023. The 2024 first-quarter renewal success rate was 83.4%, compared to 87.1% in the prior quarter and 77.9% in the first quarter of 2023. Rail North America’s investment volume during the first quarter was $321.7 million.

    Additional fleet statistics, including information on the boxcar fleet, 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 $28.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $23.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. Higher 2024 first-quarter segment profit was predominately driven by more railcars on lease.

    As of March 31, 2024, GATX Rail Europe’s (GRE's) fleet consisted of over 29,300 railcars. Fleet utilization was 95.3%, compared to 95.9% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.5% at the end of the first quarter of 2023.

    As of March 31, 2024, Rail India's fleet consisted of over 9,500 railcars. Fleet utilization was 100%, compared to 100% at the end of the prior quarter and 100% at the end of the first quarter of 2023.

    Additional fleet statistics for GRE and Rail India are provided on the last page of this press release.

    ENGINE LEASING

    As of December 31, 2023, the Company had sold all marine assets, including the Specialized Gas Vessels, and we no longer have any marine operations. As a result, we have changed the name of this business segment from Portfolio Management to Engine Leasing to reflect the prospective operations of this business segment.

    Engine Leasing reported segment profit of $25.7 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to segment profit of $28.3 million in the first quarter of 2023. The 2024 first-quarter segment profit included a net positive impact of $0.6 million from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. The 2023 first-quarter segment profit included a net negative impact of $1.6 million from Tax Adjustments and Other Items. Additional details are provided in the attached Supplemental Information under Tax Adjustments and Other Items. Lower 2024 first-quarter segment profit was driven by lower earnings at the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance (RRPF) affiliates, partially offset by increased earnings from GATX Engine Leasing. Lower 2024 first-quarter earnings at RRPF was driven by lower remarketing income.

    • reduced opportunities to generate asset remarketing income

    (1)

     

    In addition to financial results reported in accordance with GAAP, we compute certain financial measures using non-GAAP components. Specifically, we exclude the effects of certain tax adjustments and other items for purposes of presenting net income and diluted earnings per share because we believe these items are not attributable to our business operations. Management utilizes net income, excluding tax adjustments and other items, when analyzing financial performance because such amounts reflect the underlying operating results that are within management’s ability to influence. Accordingly, we believe presenting this information provides investors and other users of our financial statements with meaningful supplemental information for purposes of analyzing year-to-year financial performance on a comparable basis and assessing trends.

    (2)

     

    In 2022, we made the decision to sell the Specialized Gas Vessels. We have recorded gains and losses associated with the subsequent impairments and sales of these assets. All vessels were sold as of December 31, 2023.

    (3)

     

    In 2022, we made the decision to exit our rail business in Russia ("Rail Russia"). In the first quarter of 2023, we sold Rail Russia and recorded a gain on the final sale of this business.

    _________

    (1)

     

    GATX's Lease Price Index (LPI) is an internally-generated business indicator that measures renewal activity for our North American railcar fleet, excluding boxcars. The average renewal lease rate change is reported as the percentage change between the average renewal lease rate and the average expiring lease rate. The average renewal lease term is reported in months and reflects the average renewal lease term in the LPI.

    (2)

     

    The renewal success rate represents the percentage of railcars on expiring leases that were renewed with the existing lessee. The renewal success rate is an important metric because railcars returned by our customers may remain idle or incur additional maintenance and freight costs prior to being leased to new customers.

    Excludes boxcar fleet.
