GENERAL
GATX Corporation (GATX or the Company)
leases, operates and manages long-lived, widely used assets in
the rail, marine and industrial equipment markets. GATX also
invests in joint ventures that complement existing business
activities. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, GATX has three
financial reporting segments: Rail, Specialty and American
Steamship Company (ASC). In 2007, GATX completed the
sale of its aircraft leasing business (formerly the
Air segment). Accordingly, Air has been segregated
and classified as discontinued operations for all periods
presented. For details regarding foreign operations, see
discussion in Note 21 to the consolidated financial
statements. For details regarding each segments operating
results and assets, see Note 23 to the consolidated
financial statements.
At December 31, 2009, GATX had total assets of
$6.2 billion, comprised largely of railcars, marine vessels
and joint venture investments. This figure includes
$1.0 billion of assets, primarily railcars, that were
leased-in under operating leases and therefore were not recorded
on the balance sheet.
BUSINESS
SEGMENTS
Rail
Rail leases tank cars, freight cars and locomotives in North
America and Europe. Operating for over 100 years, Rail is a
leader in the railcar leasing industry and controls one of the
largest privately owned railcar fleets in the world. Rail
established this position through a disciplined investment
approach under which it sources railcars from manufacturers and
makes opportunistic purchases of railcar fleets in the secondary
market.
At December 31, 2009, Rail had total assets of
$5.2 billion, including $1.0 billion of off balance
sheet assets. Rails railcar leasing customers are
primarily comprised of shippers of chemical, petroleum and food
products as well as railroads. Rails fleet consists of a
broad and diverse selection of railcar types that are used to
ship approximately 700 different commodities.
The following table provides information on some of the major
railcar types that Rail leases to its customers and the
commodities shipped in these railcars.

Based on 2009 Rail revenues
|
As of December 31, 2009, Rails worldwide fleet,
comprised of wholly-owned and leased-in railcars, totaled
approximately 131,000 railcars. These cars have depreciable
lives of 30 to 38 years and an average age of approximately
16 years in North America and 24 years in Europe. Rail
also had an ownership interest in approximately 29,000 railcars
through investments in affiliated companies. Affiliate fleets
consist primarily of freight and intermodal railcars. In
addition, Rail manages approximately 2,700 railcars for
third-party owners. The following table sets forth Rails

Rail primarily provides railcars pursuant to full-service leases
under which it maintains the railcars, pays ad valorem taxes and
insurance and provides other ancillary services. Rail also
offers net leases for railcars under which the lessee is
responsible for maintenance, insurance and taxes. Rail has a
large and diverse customer base, serving approximately 800
customers. In 2009, no single customer accounted for more than
2.5% of Rails total lease income, and the top ten
customers combined accounted for approximately 19% of
Rails total lease income.
North
America
In North America, Rail leases new railcars for terms that
generally range from three to ten years, with renewals of
existing leases generally ranging from two to seven years. The
average remaining lease term of the North American fleet
was four years as of December 31, 2009. Rails primary
competitors in North America are Union Tank Car Company, General
Electric Railcar Services Corporation, American Railcar Leasing,
CIT Group, Inc., Trinity Leasing, and First Union Rail. Rail
competes on the basis of customer relationships, service, price
and availability of railcars.
In North America, Rail purchases new railcars from a number of
manufacturers, including Trinity Industries, American Railcar
Industries, Inc., FreightCar America, National Steel Car Ltd.
and The Greenbrier Companies. In addition to the purchase of new
cars, Rail acquires existing portfolios or fleets of
complementary railcars in the secondary market.
Rails North American operation also includes its
locomotive leasing business, which primarily consists of 529
locomotives, 80% of which are four-axle and 20% are six-axle.
Additionally, Rail manages 66 locomotives for an affiliate.
Four-axle locomotives have not been manufactured in any material
quantity since the mid-1980s but continue to be in demand by
railroads and shippers. As a result, with periodic
refurbishment, the four-axle fleet is expected to continue to be
marketable and yield attractive returns. Rails locomotive
customers are primarily Class I, regional and short-line
railroads and industrial users. Locomotive leases are typically
net leases and terms
3
vary from
month-to-month
to 15 years. As of December 31, 2009, the average
remaining lease term of Rails locomotive fleet was three
years with remaining depreciable lives ranging from 8 to
17 years. Rails major competitors in locomotive
leasing are Helm Financial Corporation, CIT Group, Inc., Relco
Locomotives, Inc. and National Railway Equipment Corporation.
Competitive factors in the market include equipment condition,
availability, customer service and pricing.
North
American Maintenance
The majority of Rails leases are full-service contracts
under which Rail maintains the railcars. Rail operates an
extensive network of service facilities across North America
that performs repair, maintenance and regulatory compliance work
on the fleet. This maintenance organization is dedicated to
performing timely, efficient and high quality repair services.
Maintenance services include interior cleaning of railcars,
general repairs to car body and safety appliances, regulatory
compliance work, wheelset replacements, exterior blast and
paint, and car stenciling. To the extent possible, regulatory
compliance work is conducted while cars are in the service
centers for customer directed repairs, thereby minimizing the
amount of time the car is out of service. Rails
maintenance network consists of:
|
|
|
|
|
Seven major service centers. These full-service facilities can
complete virtually any repair or modification project.
|
|
|
|
Six customer-dedicated sites operating solely within specific
customer plants. Services offered at these sites are typically
tailored to the needs of the customers fleets.
|
|
|
|
Six Fast Track locations, all operating in the
United States. Fast Track locations are smaller in size and
scale than major service centers, primarily focusing on routine
cleaning, repair and regulatory compliance services.
|
|
|
|
Twenty mobile repair units. These repair trucks are able to
travel to many track-side field locations and provide spot
repairs and interior cleaning services, avoiding the need to
otherwise shop a railcar.
|
Rails maintenance network is supplemented by a number of
approved third-party service centers that adhere to GATXs
quality standards. In certain cases, third-party repair services
are utilized via fixed-capacity contracts under which GATX has
contractually secured access to repair capacity. In 2009,
third-party service centers accounted for approximately 49% of
Rails North American service center maintenance costs
(excluding the cost of repairs performed by railroads). In 2009,
an aggregate of 80,000 service events, including multiple
independent service events for the same car, were performed at
GATX-owned and third-party service centers.
Europe
Rails European operations consist of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries in Germany, Austria and Poland. Rail leases
standard gauge railcars to customers throughout most of Europe.
Rails European customer base includes petroleum refining,
chemical manufacturing, transportation, freight forwarding and
railway companies. In Europe, Rail acquires new railcars
primarily from the IRS Group. Rail Europe has purchase
commitments to acquire 300 newly manufactured railcars in 2010
and an option for up to 610 additional railcars in 2011. Rail
Europe also assembles several hundred tank cars each year at its
Ostroda, Poland service center. Lease terms for Rails
European fleet generally range from one to five years and at
December 31, 2009, the average remaining lease term of the
fleet was two years. Rail operates two service centers in Europe
that perform significant repairs and regulatory compliance for
owned railcars. The owned service centers are supplemented by a
number of third-party contract repair facilities, which in 2009
accounted for approximately 35% of Rails European fleet
repair costs. In Europe, Rail principally competes on the basis
of customer relationships, service, price and availability of
railcars. Rails primary competitors in Europe are VTG
Aktiengesellschaft, Ermewa, CTL Logistics Group, and PCC Rail
Group.
Rail
Affiliates
Rail has two notable investments in affiliated companies: a
37.5% interest in AAE Cargo AG (AAE) and a 50%
interest in Southern Capital Corporation (SCC).
4
AAE is a Switzerland-based railcar lessor that as of
December 31, 2009, owned approximately 25,000 freight cars,
comprised of 14,638 intermodal cars (59%), 4,607 covered cars
(18%) and 5,731 other freight type cars (23%), with an average
age of 9 years. AAEs customer base consists of
various railways throughout Europe as well as private operators.
As of December 31, 2009, the average remaining lease term
of AAE railcars was approximately two years.
SCC is a joint venture with the Kansas City Southern Railroad
(KCSR). SCC was formed in 1996 and controls
approximately 3,000 freight cars and 66 locomotives, the
majority of which are on lease to KCSR.
Specialty
Specialty provides leasing, asset remarketing and asset
management services to the marine and industrial equipment
markets. Specialty offers operating leases, direct finance
leases and loans, and extends its market reach through joint
venture investments. Specialty seeks to invest in long-lived,
widely used assets which are critical to the operations of its
customers. Specialtys assets as of December 31, 2009,
including off balance sheet assets, totaled $676.9 million.

Portfolio
Specialtys owned portfolio of assets consists primarily of
investments in operating assets held for lease and finance
leases totaling $334.2 million. Operating assets are
diverse and include equipment used in natural gas compression,
ethanol production, construction, and mining and marine vessels
used in inland freight transportation. Operating assets have
depreciable lives of 5 to 30 years. The majority of these
assets are placed with customers under long-term leases, with
expiration dates through 2021. Specialty typically remarkets
assets at the end of their lease term, generating portfolio
proceeds and often asset remarketing income.
Specialty further leverages its equipment knowledge by managing
portfolios of assets for third parties. The majority of these
managed assets are in markets where GATX has a high level of
expertise. Specialty generates fee and residual sharing income
through portfolio administration and remarketing of these
assets. Specialty has also provided equipment residual value
guarantees, which enable it to share in any residual asset value
in excess of the guaranteed amount. As of December 31,
2009, Specialty was party to 19 such residual value guarantees
totaling $16.1 million that expire between 2010 and 2012.
Specialty

arrangement controlled by Skaugen, primarily transporting
ethylene between the Middle East and Asia. Singco is in the
process of constructing four liquid petroleum
gas/ethylene/liquefied natural gas vessels (each with 10,000 cbm
carrying capacity), the first of which was delivered in January
2010. Delivery of the remaining vessels
6
will be completed by the middle of 2011 and all four Singco
vessels will enter into the same pool as the Somargas vessels.
Clipper Third Limited and Clipper Fourth Limited, respectively,
are 50% and 45% owned joint ventures with Clipper Group Invest
Ltd. (the Clipper Group). The Clipper Group is a
leading international shipping consortium with over
35 years of experience in shipping. The Clipper Group

ASC
ASC owns and operates the largest fleet of U.S. flagged
vessels on the Great Lakes, providing waterborne transportation
of dry bulk commodities for a range of industrial customers. The
primary commodities that ASCs vessels carry are coal, iron
ore and limestone. Customer service, primarily in the form of
scheduling flexibility, reliability and operating safety have
been the keys to ASCs success for over 100 years.
ASCs sailing season generally runs from April 1 through
December 31; however, customer demand and weather conditions
permitting, certain vessels may commence operations during March
and continue to operate into January of the following year.
At December 31, 2009, ASCs fleet consisted of
18 vessels with a net book value of $234.0 million.
Fifteen of the vessels are diesel powered, constructed in the
1970s and early 1980s, having an average age of
32 years and estimated useful lives of 65 years. The
diesel vessels range in size from 635 feet to
1,000 feet long and maximum load capacities between 23,800
and 80,900 gross tons. The three remaining vessels are
steam powered, built in the 1940s and 1950s, and
have an estimated remaining useful life of ten years. The
steamer vessels range in size from 690 to 767 feet and have
maximum load capacities between 22,300 and 26,300 gross
tons. ASCs vessels operate exclusively in the fresh water
conditions of the Great Lakes and as a result, with proper
maintenance and periodic refurbishment, may achieve extended use
well beyond the useful life estimates.
All of ASCs vessels are equipped with self-unloading
equipment, enabling them to discharge dry bulk cargo without
assistance from shore-side equipment or personnel. This
equipment enables the vessels to operate twenty-four hours a
day, seven days a week. ASCs vessels are capable of
transporting and unloading almost any free flowing, dry bulk
commodity. ASCs customers are primarily consumers of iron
ore, western and eastern coal, limestone aggregates and
metallurgical limestone. ASC served 23 customers in 2009 with
the top five customers comprising 73% of ASCs total
revenue.

ASCs vessels operate pursuant to contractual commitments
with customers to carry a stipulated range of freight volume
each year. Committed volume may be supplemented with spot
opportunities. In 2009, ASC carried 21.2 million net tons
of cargo including both contracted volume and spot business.
ASCs customer portfolio has remained relatively stable
over the past three years and includes a mix of companies in the
steel production, power generation and construction industries.
Seventeen of the vessels in ASCs fleet are used to service
contract and spot business. ASCs remaining vessel operates
under a long-term time charter agreement that is scheduled to
expire in 2015. The number of vessels deployed by ASC in any
given year is dependent on customer volume requirements. During
periods of low demand (relative to ASCs carrying
capacity), ASC may choose not to operate certain vessels.
ASCs primary competitors on the domestic Great Lakes are
Grand River Navigation, Great Lakes Fleet, Inc., Interlake
Steamship Company, K & K Integrated Logistics,
VanEnkevort Tug and Barge, and Upper Lakes Towing. ASC
principally competes on the basis of service capabilities,
customer relationships and price.
The United States shipping industry is subject to the Jones Act
(the Act), which requires all commercial vessels
transporting goods between U.S. ports to be built, owned,
operated and manned by U.S. citizens and registered under
the U.S. flag.

ENVIRONMENTAL
MATTERS
GATXs operations, as well as those of its competitors, are
subject to extensive federal, state, local, and foreign
environmental regulations. These laws cover discharges to
waters; air emissions; toxic substances; and the generation,
handling, storage, transportation and disposal of waste and
hazardous materials. These regulations have the effect of
increasing the cost and liability associated with leasing and
operating assets. Environmental risks are also inherent in rail
operations, which frequently involve transporting chemicals and
other hazardous materials.
Some of GATXs current and previously owned properties have
been used for industrial or transportation-related purposes that
may have resulted in the discharge of contaminants. As a result,
GATX is now subject to, and will from time to time continue to
be subject to, environmental cleanup and enforcement actions in
the U.S. and in the foreign countries in which it operates.
In particular, the U.S. federal Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA),
also known as the Superfund law, generally imposes joint and
several liability for cleanup and enforcement costs, without
regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on
current and former owners and operators of a site. Accordingly,
GATX may be responsible under CERCLA and other federal, state,
local, and foreign statutes for all or a portion of the costs to
clean up sites at which certain substances may have been
released by GATX, its current lessees, former owners or lessees
of properties, or other third parties. Environmental remediation
and other environmental costs are accrued when considered
probable and amounts can be reasonably estimated. As of
December 31, 2009, environmental costs were not material to
GATXs financial position, results of operations or cash
flows. For further discussion, see Note 22 to the
consolidated financial statements.

GATX is subject to a number of risks which investors should
consider before investing in GATXs securities. These risks
include the factors described below as well as other information
contained in this filing and GATXs other filings with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The risk factors
described below are not the only risks facing the Company, and
additional risks not presently known to GATX or risks currently
considered immaterial also may adversely affect GATX.
Competition
could result in decreased profitability.
GATX operates in a highly competitive business environment. In
many cases, competitors are larger entities that have greater
financial resources, higher credit ratings and a lower cost of
capital than GATX. These factors may enable competitors to offer
leases and loans to customers at lower rates than GATX is able
to provide, thus impacting GATXs asset utilization or
GATXs ability to lease assets on a profitable basis.
Weak
economic conditions, financial market volatility and other
factors may decrease customer demand for GATXs assets and
services and negatively impact GATXs business and results
of operations.
GATX relies upon continued demand from its customers to lease
its railcars, locomotives, industrial equipment and marine
assets. Demand for these assets is dependent upon the markets
for the products and services offered by
9
the Companys customers and the strength and growth of
their businesses. A number of GATXs customers operate in
cyclical markets, such as the steel, chemical and construction
industries, which are susceptible to macroeconomic downturns in
the United States and abroad and may experience significant
changes in demand over time.
As a result of the weak economic conditions currently affecting
the economy of the United States and other parts of the world,
certain of GATXs customers have experienced declines in
their operating and financial performance, which have, in turn,
reduced demand for the assets and services GATX provides.
Continued weakness in certain sectors of the economy also may
make it more difficult for GATX to lease certain types of
railcars that are returned either at the end of a lease term or
as a result of a customer bankruptcy or default.
In many cases, demand for GATXs assets is also dependent
on customers desire to lease, rather than purchase assets.
There are a number of items that factor into the customers
decision to lease or purchase assets, such as tax
considerations, interest rates, balance sheet considerations and
operational flexibility. GATX has no control over these external
considerations, and changes in these factors could negatively
impact demand for its assets held for lease.
Additional factors influencing customer demand for GATXs
assets include changes in production volumes, potential changes
in supply chains, choices regarding type of transportation
asset, availability of substitutes and other operational needs.
Demand for the shipping services provided by the Companys
ASC segment is also dependent upon the factors discussed above.
A significant decline in customer demand for the assets and
services provided by GATX could adversely affect the
Companys financial performance.
GATX
may be unable to maintain assets on lease at satisfactory
rates.
GATXs profitability is largely dependent on its ability to
maintain assets on lease at satisfactory rates and to re-lease
or sell assets upon lease expiration. A number of factors can
adversely affect asset utilization rates and lease rates,
including, but not limited to, an economic downturn causing
reduced demand, changes in customer behavior, or other changes
in supply or demand for such assets. Continued economic
uncertainty or a decline in customer demand for GATXs
assets could cause customers to demand shorter lease terms and
lower lease rates and could result in a decrease in the
utilization rate for GATXs assets and reduced revenues.
Alternatively, customers may seek to lock-in relatively low
lease rates for longer terms thereby resulting in an adverse
impact on current or future revenues.
GATXs
allowance for possible losses may prove
inadequate.
GATXs allowance for possible losses on reservable assets
may not be adequate over time to cover credit losses in its
portfolio if unexpected adverse changes in the economy differ
from the expectations of management or if discrete events
adversely affect specific customers, industries or markets. If
the credit quality of GATXs customer base materially
deteriorates, the Companys allowance may be insufficient
to cover credit losses and GATXs financial position or
results of operations could be negatively impacted.
Deterioration
of conditions in the global capital markets, further weakening
of macroeconomic conditions, and negative changes in credit
ratings may limit the ability of GATX to secure financing and
may increase its borrowing costs.
GATX relies, in part, upon banks and capital markets to fund its
operations and contractual commitments, including availability
under existing bank credit facilities and the issuance of
long-term debt instruments and commercial paper from time to
time. Since July 2007, these markets have exhibited
unprecedented volatility. As a result, credit margins on
corporate debt increased significantly during late 2008 and the
first half of 2009, and then declined significantly later in
2009. Access to capital, particularly in the unsecured debt
markets, was significantly constrained for some borrowers for an
extended period of time. In addition to conditions in the
capital markets, a number of other factors could cause GATX to
incur increased borrowing costs and to have greater difficulty
accessing public and private markets for both secured and
unsecured debt. These factors include GATXs financial
performance and its credit ratings and rating outlook as
determined primarily by rating agencies such as
Standard & Poors and Moodys Investor
Service. If GATX is unable to secure financing on acceptable
terms, the Companys
10
other sources of funds, including available cash, bank
facilities, cash flow from operations and portfolio proceeds,
may not be adequate to fund its operations and contractual
commitments.
Changes
in laws, rules or regulations, or actions by authorities under
existing laws, rules or regulations, could negatively affect
GATXs business and profitability.
GATXs rail and marine operations are subject to various
laws, rules and regulations administered by authorities in
jurisdictions where GATX and its subsidiaries do business. In
the United States, GATXs businesses are subject to
regulation by various federal and state agencies, including the
U.S. Department of Transportation, and railcar operations
are also affected by regulations adopted by the Association of
American Railroads. These agencies establish rules and
regulations for the railcar industry, including mechanical,
maintenance and safety standards. State agencies regulate some
aspects of rail operations with respect to health and safety
matters not otherwise preempted by federal law. Similarly,
operations of GATXs foreign subsidiaries are subject to
the jurisdiction of authorities in countries where they do
business. Future changes in these laws, rules and regulations,
or actions by authorities under existing laws, rules or
regulations, could restrict the use or reduce the economic value
of GATXs assets, including loss of revenue, or cause GATX
to incur significant expenditures to comply, thereby increasing
operating expenses. Certain changes to laws, rules and
regulations, or actions by authorities under existing laws,
rules or regulations, could result in the obsolescence of
various assets or impose compliance costs that are so
significant as to render such assets economically obsolete.
GATXs
assets may become obsolete.
In addition to changes in laws, rules and regulations that may
make assets obsolete, GATX may be adversely impacted by changes
in the preferred method used by the Companys customers to
ship their products, changes in demand for particular products,
or by a shift by customers toward purchasing assets rather than
leasing them from GATX. The industries in which GATXs
customers operate are driven by dynamic market forces and
trends, which are in turn influenced by economic and political
factors in the United States and abroad. Demand for GATXs
rail and marine assets may be significantly affected by changes
to the markets in which the Companys customers operate. A
significant reduction in customer demand for transportation or
manufacture of a particular product or change in the preferred
method of transportation used by customers to ship their
products could result in the economic obsolescence of GATX
assets leased by those customers.
High
energy prices could have a negative effect on the demand for
GATXs products and services.
Energy prices, including the price of natural gas and oil, are
significant cost drivers for many of GATXs customers,
either directly in the form of raw material costs in industries
such as the chemical and steel industries, or indirectly in the
form of increased transportation costs. Sustained high energy
prices could negatively impact these industries resulting in a
corresponding adverse effect on customer demand for GATXs
assets, as well as related services.
Events
or conditions negatively affecting certain assets, customers or
geographic regions in which GATX has a large investment could
have a negative impact on its results of
operations.
GATXs revenues are generally derived from a number of
different asset types, customers, industries and geographic
locations. However, from time to time, GATX could have a large
investment in a particular asset type, a large revenue stream
associated with a particular customer or industry, or a large
number of customers located in a particular geographic region.
Decreased demand from a discrete event impacting a particular
asset type, discrete events with a specific customer or
industry, or adverse regional economic conditions, particularly
for those assets, customers or regions in which GATX has a
concentrated exposure, could have a negative impact on
GATXs results of operations.
GATX
is subject to extensive environmental regulations and the costs
of remediation may be material.
GATXs operations are subject to extensive federal,
foreign, state and local environmental laws and regulations
concerning, among other things, the discharge of hazardous
materials and remediation of contaminated sites. In
11
addition, some of GATXs properties, including those
previously owned or leased, have been used for industrial
purposes whose activities may have resulted in discharges onto
the property. Environmental liability can extend to previously
owned or operated properties as well as properties currently
owned and used by the Company. Environmental liabilities are
routinely assessed, including obligations and commitments for
remediation of contaminated sites and assessments of ranges and
probabilities of recoveries from other responsible parties. Due
to the regulatory complexities and risk of unidentified
contaminants on its properties, the potential exists for
environmental and remediation costs to be materially different
from the costs GATX has estimated.
GATX
has been, and may in the future be, involved in various types of
litigation.
The nature of GATXs businesses and assets expose the
Company to the potential for claims and litigation related to,
among other things, personal injury and property damage,
environmental claims and other matters. Certain GATX railcars
may be used by customers to transport hazardous materials, and a
rupture of a railcar carrying such materials in an accident
could lead to litigation and subject GATX to the potential for
significant liability. A substantial adverse judgment against
GATX could have a material adverse effect on the Companys
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
GATX
may not be able to procure insurance on a cost-effective
basis.
GATX manages its exposure to risk, in part, by insuring its
assets and their associated risks. There is no guarantee that
such insurance will be consistently available on a
cost-effective basis in the future. If the cost of insurance
coverage becomes prohibitively expensive, GATX could be forced
to reduce the amount of coverage and increase the amount of its
self-insured risk retention.
The
fair market value of GATXs long-lived assets may differ
from the value of those assets reflected in its financial
statements.
GATXs assets consist primarily of long-lived assets such
as railcars, marine vessels and industrial equipment. The
carrying value of these assets in the financial statements may
at times differ from their fair market value. These valuation
differences may be positive or negative and may be material
based on market conditions and demand for certain assets.
GATX
may incur future asset impairment charges.
GATX regularly reviews long-lived assets and joint venture
investments for impairment, including when events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset or
investment may not be recoverable. GATX may be required to
recognize asset impairment charges in the future as a result of
a weak economic environment, challenging market conditions,
events related to particular customers or asset types, or as a
result of asset or portfolio sale decisions by management or
other factors that affect GATXs estimates of expected cash
flows to be generated from its long-lived assets or joint
venture investments.
Fluctuations
in foreign exchange rates and interest rates could have a
negative impact on GATXs results of
operations.
GATXs results are exposed to foreign exchange rate
fluctuations as the financial results of certain subsidiaries
are translated from their local currency into U.S. dollars
upon consolidation. As exchange rates vary, the operating
results of foreign subsidiaries, when translated, may differ
materially from period to period. GATX is also subject to gains
and losses on foreign currency transactions, which could vary
based on fluctuations in exchange rates and the timing of the
transactions and their settlement. In addition, fluctuations in
foreign exchange rates can have an effect on the demand and
relative price for services provided by GATX domestically and
internationally, and could have a negative impact on GATXs
results of operations. GATX is also subject to risks associated
with fluctuations in interest rates. The Company may seek to
limit foreign exchange rate and interest rate risk through the
use of currency or interest rate derivatives, but these measures
may not be effective. A material and unexpected change in
interest rates or foreign exchange rates could negatively affect
GATXs financial performance.
12
GATX
is subject to the inherent risks of its joint venture
investments.
GATXs investments include ownership interests in a number
of joint ventures managed and operated by third parties. These
entities are subject to many of the same risk factors discussed
in this Risk Factors section. GATX is indirectly exposed to
these risks through its ownership interest in these entities,
and adverse developments in the business or financial results of
those entities could have a negative impact on GATXs
results of operations. Additionally, in those instances where a
joint venture is managed and operated by GATXs joint
venture partner or another third party, GATX may not have
control over all operational decisions which may result in
actions taken at the joint venture level that could have an
adverse economic impact on GATX.
GATX
may be affected by climate change or market or regulatory
responses to climate change.
Changes in laws, rules and regulations, or actions by
authorities under existing laws, rules or regulations, to
address greenhouse gas emissions and climate change could have a
negative impact on the Companys customers and business.
For example, restrictions on emissions could significantly
increase costs for GATX customers who produce energy or
manufacture chemical or other products that require significant
amounts of energy to produce. This, in turn, could reduce
customer demand to lease the Companys assets. New
government regulations could also increase GATXs marine
and other operating costs or require significant capital
expenditures to comply. All or any of these potential
consequences of climate change could have an adverse effect on
the Companys financial position, results of operations and
cash flows.
GATX
cannot predict with certainty the impact that inflation or
deflation will have on its financial results.
Effects of inflation are unpredictable as to timing and duration
and depend on market conditions and economic factors. Inflation
in lease rates as well as inflation in residual values for rail,
marine and other equipment has historically benefited
GATXs financial results. However, these benefits may be
offset, in whole or in part, by increases in the costs for goods
and services purchased by GATX, including salaries and wages,
health care costs, supplies, utilities, and maintenance and
repair services and materials. Significant increases in
GATXs cost of goods and services could adversely impact
the Companys financial performance. A period of prolonged
deflation would have a negative impact on GATX from several
perspectives, including lease rate pricing, residual values and
asset remarketing opportunities. These negative impacts of
deflation may be affected, in whole or in part, by decreases in
the cost to GATX of goods and services, including those
discussed herein.
Unfavorable
conditions on the Great Lakes could disrupt normal business
operations, which could result in increased costs and decreases
in revenues.
The success of GATXs ASC business segment is dependent
upon its ability to operate efficiently on the Great Lakes.
Severe weather conditions, including, but not limited to, high
wind and ice formation, could cause significant business
interruptions. Additionally, low water levels may restrict the
volume that may be transported in ASCs vessels on a per
trip basis. These conditions could negatively impact GATXs
results of operations due to increased operating costs or
decreased revenues.
Many
of GATXs employees are represented by unions, and the
failure to successfully negotiate collective bargaining
agreements may result in strikes, work stoppages or
substantially higher labor costs.
A significant portion of GATXs employees are represented
by labor unions and work under collective bargaining agreements
that cover a range of workplace matters, including wages, health
and welfare benefits, work rules and other issues. Historically,
the Company and its unions have been successful in negotiating
acceptable agreements without the occurrence of any extended
work stoppages. However, if the Company is unable to negotiate
acceptable new agreements, it could result in strikes by the
affected workers, business disruptions and increased operating
costs due to higher wages or benefits paid to union workers, any
of which could have an adverse effect on the Companys
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
13
Changes
to assumptions used to calculate post-retirement costs,
increases in funding requirements and investment losses in
pension funds could adversely affect GATXs results of
operations.
GATXs pension and other post-retirement costs are
dependent on various assumptions used to calculate such amounts,
including discount rates, long-term return on plan assets,
salary increases, health care cost trend rates and other
factors. Changes to any of these assumptions could adversely
affect GATXs financial position and results of operations.
Additionally, GATX could be required to increase contributions
to its pension plans as a result of changes to laws, regulations
or rules that increase funding requirements or to compensate for
investment losses in pension plan assets. If GATX were forced to
increase contributions to its pension plans, the Companys
financial position, results of operations and cash flows could
be negatively affected.
GATXs
effective tax rate could be adversely affected by changes in the
mix of earnings in the U.S. and foreign countries.
GATX is subject to taxes in the United States and various
foreign jurisdictions. As a result, GATXs effective tax
rate could be adversely affected by changes in the mix of
earnings in the United States and foreign countries with
differing statutory tax rates, legislative changes impacting
statutory tax rates, including the impact on recorded deferred
tax assets and liabilities, changes in tax laws or by material
audit assessments.
United
States and world economic and political conditions, including
acts or threats of terrorism or war, could adversely affect
GATX.
National and international political developments, instability
and uncertainties, including political unrest and threats of
terrorist attacks, could result in global economic weakness in
general and in the United States in particular, and could have
an adverse impact on GATX. The effects may include: legislation
or regulatory action directed toward improving the security of
railcars and marine vessels against acts of terrorism, which
could affect the construction or operation of railcars and
marine vessels, a decrease in demand for rail and marine
services, lower utilization of new and existing rail and marine
equipment, lower rail lease and marine charter rates;
impairments of rail and marine assets or capital market
disruption, which may raise GATXs financing costs or limit
its access to capital, and liability or losses resulting from
acts of terrorism involving GATXs assets. Depending upon
the severity, scope and duration of these effects, the impact on
GATXs financial position, results of operations and cash
flows could be material.
GATXs
internal control over financial accounting and reporting may not
detect all errors or omissions in the financial
statements.
If GATX fails to maintain adequate internal controls over
financial accounting, the Company may not be able to ensure that
GATX can conclude on an ongoing basis that it has effective
internal control over financial reporting in accordance with
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related
regulations. Although GATXs management has concluded that
adequate internal control procedures are in place, no system of
internal control can provide absolute assurance that the
financial statements are accurate and free of error. As a
result, the risk exists that GATXs internal control may
not detect all errors or omissions in the financial statements.

GATX
Common Stock Performance Graph
The following GATX Common Stock Performance Graph (the
Performance Graph) and related information shall not
be deemed soliciting material or to be
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
nor shall such information be incorporated by reference into any
future filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, each as amended, except to the extent that
the Company specifically incorporates it by reference into such
filing.
The Performance Graph sets forth a comparison of the cumulative
total shareholder return on the Companys common stock
during the five-year period ending December 31, 2009, with
the cumulative total return of the Standard &
Poors 500 Composite Stock Price Index (S&P
500), the Standard & Poors MidCap 400
Index (MidCap 400) and the Russell 1000 Financial
Services Index (Russell 1000). The Company is not
aware of any peer companies whose businesses are directly
comparable to that of GATX and, therefore, the graph below
displays the returns of the Mid-Cap 400 and the Russell 1000,
both of which are comprised of companies with market
capitalizations similar to GATX. The Performance Graph assumes
$100 was invested in GATX common stock and each of the indices
on December 31, 2004, and all dividends were reinvested.

Highlights
|
|
|
|
|
Income from continuing operations for 2009 was
$81.4 million, or $1.70 per diluted share, compared to
$194.8 million, or $3.88 per diluted share for 2008.
Results for 2009 included unrealized losses of
$24.4 million ($20.7 million after-tax), representing
the change in the fair value of certain interest rate swaps at
GATXs European rail affiliate, AAE Cargo A.G.
(AAE) and $7.4 million of realized foreign tax
credits. Results for 2008 included a benefit of
$6.8 million from the reversal of tax reserves, a
$12.0 million ($9.8 million after-tax) gain on the
sale of an office building, the reversal of $8.2 million
($6.6 million after-tax) of environmental reserves and
$3.7 million ($3.3 million after-tax) of unrealized
losses on the AAE interest rate swaps. Results for 2007 included
deferred tax benefits of $20.1 million. The items for each
year noted herein are referred to throughout this Item 7 as
Tax Benefits and Other Items.
|
|
|
|
Excluding the impact of the Tax Benefits and Other Items from
all years, income from continuing operations in 2009 was
$94.7 million, a decrease of 45.9% or $80.2 million
from 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower gross income
and higher ownership and maintenance expenses at Rail, lower
affiliate income at Specialty and a significantly lower
contribution from ASC, partially offset by lower selling,
general and administrative expenses (SG&A). The
increase in 2008 compared to 2007 was primarily due to higher
lease income and significantly higher scrapping income at Rail
and a higher contribution from ASC, partially offset by higher
maintenance expense at Rail and increased SG&A.

Segment
Operations
Segment profit is an internal performance measure used by the
Chief Executive Officer to assess the performance of each
segment in a given period. Segment profit includes all revenues,
including affiliate earnings, attributable to the segments as
well as ownership and operating costs that management believes
are directly associated with the maintenance or operation of the
revenue earning assets. Operating costs include maintenance
costs, marine operating costs, and other operating costs such as
litigation, asset impairment charges, provisions for losses,
environmental costs and asset storage costs. Segment profit
excludes selling, general and administrative expenses, income
taxes and certain other amounts not allocated to the segments.
These amounts are discussed below in Other.
GATX allocates debt balances and related interest expense to
each segment based upon a pre-determined fixed recourse leverage
level expressed as a ratio of recourse debt (including off
balance sheet debt) to equity. The leverage levels for Rail,
Specialty and ASC are set at 4:1, 3:1 and 1.5:1, respectively.
Management believes that by utilizing this leverage and interest
expense allocation methodology, each operating segments
financial performance reflects appropriate risk-adjusted
borrowing costs.
Rail
Segment
Summary
Economic weakness persisted in North America and Europe
throughout 2009, leading to a substantial decline in Rails
operating results compared to the prior year. In North America,
these market conditions negatively impacted lease pricing and
demand for railcars throughout the year. While Rail successfully
renewed the majority of expiring leases with the existing
customers, renewal rates were generally lower. The GATX Lease
Price Index (the LPI) (see definition below)
declined an average of 11.0% for the year, compared to increases
of 5.2% and 13.6% in 2008 and 2007, respectively. Lease terms on
renewals for LPI cars averaged 41 months in 2009, compared
to 63 in 2008 and 67 in 2007. The reduced duration on lease
renewals in 2009 was due in part to Rails desire to
shorten term in anticipation of an eventual market recovery.
Utilization, after holding steady at approximately 98%
throughout 2008, trended downward in 2009, as expected, to 95.9%
at year end.
In Europe, weaker economic conditions also had a negative impact
on rail operations. Rails wholly-owned European tank car
fleet has a high concentration of cars deployed in the petroleum
market, which typically exhibits relatively stable demand
compared to other car types. However, the severity of the
current economic downturn negatively affected demand for cars
serving this market as well. Utilization of the wholly-owned
European tank car fleet declined to 94.7% at year end compared
to 97.1% at the end of 2008. Also, at AAE, significant pressure
on lease rates and utilization negatively impacted demand for
its fleet of intermodal freight cars.
Lower results in 2009 also reflected substantially reduced
remarketing income and disposition gains. In 2008, Rail took
advantage of attractive asset and commodity prices by
selectively selling and scrapping targeted assets. The sharp
decline in the price of scrap steel as well as market pressure
and the resulting negative effect on asset prices resulted in
limited opportunities for scrap and remarketing income in 2009.
Many of the challenges confronted in 2009 are expected to
continue into 2010 as pressure on lease rates and utilization
will continue until the economy shows sustainable improvement.
In North America, leases covering approximately 17,200 cars are
scheduled to expire in 2010, many of which were priced in a
higher lease rate environment. The lease rates associated with
renewal of these scheduled expirations, in light of current
market conditions and expiring rates, are expected to have a
negative effect on lease income in the near term. Additionally,
assignments (cars moving from one customer to another) are
likely to increase, which will result in increased maintenance
expense as a result of cars being serviced prior to being placed
with a new customer.
In this environment, Rail is focused on asset utilization and
cost containment which will enhance long-term performance as the
economy recovers. Rail is also well positioned to pursue
investment opportunities to the extent they become available
with the objective of growing the asset base.

Lease
Price Index
The Lease Price Index is an internally generated business
indicator that measures general lease rate pricing on renewals
within Rails North American fleet. The index reflects the
weighted average lease rate for a select 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. Average renewal term reflects the
weighted average renewal lease term in months.

Comparison
of Year Ended December 31, 2009, to Year Ended
December 31, 2008
Segment
Profit
Rails segment profit of $169.1 million in 2009
decreased 45.4% or $140.4 million from 2008. The 2009
results included $24.4 million of unrealized losses due to
changes in the fair value of certain interest rate swaps at AAE.
Results for 2008 included a $12.0 million gain on the sale
of an office building and the reversal of $8.2 million of
reserves due to the settlement of an environmental liability,
both in Europe, and $3.7 million of unrealized losses on
interest rate swaps at AAE. Excluding the impact of these items
from both years, the unfavorable current year variance of
$99.5 million was primarily due to lower lease, scrapping
and remarketing income and higher ownership and maintenance
costs.
Gross
Income
Gross income for 2009 was $108.9 million lower than the
prior year. The decrease was significantly impacted by a
$20.7 million increase in unrealized losses on AAE interest
rate swaps, a $19.7 million decrease in scrapping gains and
the absence of a $12.0 million gain on the sale of an
office building in Europe recorded in the prior year. Lease
income in North America decreased $14.2 million, primarily
due to rent reductions of $7.0 million on restructured
leases resulting from customer bankruptcies and non-performing
leases. Also, on average during 2009, there were approximately
850 fewer railcars on lease as compared to 2008, primarily due
to lease-end returns. Current year active cars include 3,650
cars acquired in December 2008 from Allco Finance Group Limited
(Allco). In Europe, a $10.9 million decrease in
lease income was largely driven by the foreign exchange effect
of a stronger U.S. dollar, partially offset by higher lease
rates and an average of 40 more cars on lease. Asset remarketing
income decreased $17.3 million, primarily due to fewer
asset sales in the current period. Other income was
$35.7 million lower, primarily due to lower scrap income
(driven by significantly lower steel prices) and the absence of
a $12.0 million gain on the sale of an office building and
a $2.8 million lease termination fee both recorded in the
prior year. Excluding the impact of the unrealized losses on AAE
interest rate swaps from both years, affiliates earnings
decreased $7.2 million, primarily due to lower operating
results at AAE attributable to lower lease revenues largely
driven by weak economic conditions.
27
AAE holds multiple derivative instruments intended to hedge
interest rate risk associated with forecasted debt issuances.
These instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting and as a
result, changes in their fair values are recognized currently in
income. The unrealized loss recognized in 2009 was primarily
driven by the significant decline in benchmark interest rates.
AAEs earnings may be impacted by future unrealized gains
or losses associated with these instruments.
Ownership
Costs
Ownership costs in 2009 increased $13.3 million, primarily
due to depreciation and interest expense associated with
investment volume, particularly the acquisition of the Allco
fleet at the end of 2008, partially offset by the foreign
exchange effect of a stronger U.S. dollar. The mix of
ownership costs was impacted by the purchases of previously
leased-in railcars in 2009 and 2008 and the sale and lease-back
of railcars in 2009.
Other
Costs and Expenses
Maintenance expense in 2009 increased $13.6 million, net of
a $7.9 million decrease due to the foreign exchange effect
of a stronger U.S. dollar. Maintenance expense in North
America increased $15.0 million, primarily due to higher
car volumes resulting from increased lessee turnover and higher
regulatory compliance costs. Excluding the currency impact,
maintenance expense in Europe increased $6.5 million,
primarily due to higher wheelset replacement costs incurred in
response to industry and regulatory changes.
Other costs include provisions for losses, asset impairment
charges, remeasurement gains and losses on non-functional
currency assets and liabilities and other operating costs. In
2008, a $6.9 million provision for losses was recorded
related to a direct finance lease to a customer that declared
bankruptcy. In 2009, upon restructuring of the lease terms in
bankruptcy court, the classification of the lease changed to an
operating lease and all finance lease balances were reversed,
including the provision. As a result of the lease
reclassification, the operating lease assets were recorded at
fair value and an impairment charge of $4.4 million was
recorded, representing the difference between fair value and
carrying value. The impact to operating results in 2009 was a
net expense reduction of $2.5 million. Additional asset
impairment charges, unrelated to this customer, of
$2.9 million were also recorded in 2009, compared to
$0.2 million in 2008. Remeasurement gains of
$1.1 million were recorded in 2009, compared to
$8.6 million in 2008. Other operating costs were
$31.4 million in 2009 compared to $27.4 million in
2008. Costs in 2009 included a $3.9 million insurance
recovery related to a fire at a GATX repair facility in Europe
and in 2008 included the reversal of $8.2 million of
environmental reserves in Europe. Excluding these two items,
other operating costs in 2009 increased $8.3 million
primarily due to higher switching and car storage costs related
to lessee turnover activity.
Comparison
of Year Ended December 31, 2008, to Year Ended
December 31, 2007
Segment
Profit
Rails segment profit of $309.5 million in 2008
increased 15.5% or $41.6 million from 2007. The 2008
results included a $12.0 million gain on sale of an office
building and the reversal of $8.2 million of reserves due
to the settlement of an environmental liability, both in Europe,
and $3.7 million of unrealized losses on interest rate
swaps at AAE. Excluding the impact of these items, the favorable
current year variance of $25.1 million was primarily due to
a significant increase in scrapping gains, higher lease income
and the foreign exchange effect of a weaker U.S. dollar,
partially offset by higher maintenance costs.
Gross
Income
Gross income for 2008 was $65.0 million higher than the
prior year. The increase was significantly impacted by a
$15.3 million increase in scrapping gains and a
$12.0 million gain on the sale of an office building in
Europe. Rails North American lease income was
$4.8 million higher than the prior year primarily due to
higher lease rates realized on renewals and assignments over the
past two years. In Europe, an average of more than 700 more cars
on lease contributed $7.8 million in additional lease
income, while the foreign exchange effect of a weaker
U.S. dollar added $14.5 million in lease income. In
2008, locomotives contributed $5.9 million in additional
lease income due to an average of 90 additional locomotives on
lease.
28
Other income in 2008 was $33.9 million higher than prior
year, primarily due to a $12.0 million gain on sale of the
office building in Europe and significant scrapping gains in
North America of $29.1 million compared to
$13.8 million in 2007. Scrapping gains increased in 2008
due to the combined impact of higher steel prices and a greater
number of cars scrapped. During 2008, as scrap steel prices rose
to record levels, Rail accelerated the scrapping of certain
railcars.
The decrease in affiliates earnings in 2008 reflects the
impact of $3.7 million of unrealized losses on interest
rate swaps at AAE. Excluding this item, earnings from AAE
increased primarily due to a higher number of cars on lease and
favorable foreign exchange effects of a weaker U.S. dollar.
Ownership
Costs
Ownership costs in 2008 increased $6.8 million primarily
due to depreciation and interest expense associated with
portfolio additions over the last 12 months and the effect
of a weaker U.S. dollar, partially offset by the effect of
lower interest rates. The mix of ownership costs was impacted by
the acquisition in 2008 of approximately 3,600 previously
leased-in railcars for $70.1 million and the assumption of
$74.7 million of related nonrecourse debt.
Other
Costs and Expenses
Maintenance expense in 2008 increased $21.1 million,
$5.1 million of which was due to the foreign exchange
effect of a weaker U.S. dollar. Excluding the currency
impact, maintenance expense increased $16.0 million,
primarily comprised of $4.4 million due to increased volume
of compliance inspections, $4.2 million due to higher
material prices and increased railroad repairs of wheelsets, and
$3.4 million due to costs associated with conversions of
certain railcar types.
Other costs in 2008 decreased $4.5 million, primarily due
to the reversal of $8.2 million of reserves resulting from
the settlement of an environmental liability in Europe and
remeasurement gains on non-functional currency denominated
assets and liabilities. Partially offsetting the decrease was a
$3.6 million increase in the estimate of a litigation loss
in Europe and an increase in the provision for losses. In 2008,
a $6.9 million provision for losses was recorded on a
direct finance lease related to a customer that declared
bankruptcy.
Railcar
Regulatory Issues
Rules Affecting TIH Cars. In 2009,
the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety
Administration, in coordination with the Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA) issued final interim rules (the
FRA Interim Rules) that, among other things,
established new interim design standards for pressurized tank
cars that transport
toxic-by-inhalation
hazardous materials (TIH cars). The designation
final interim indicates that the FRA intends to
continue to research enhanced design standards for TIH cars and
will issue additional rulemaking in the future that will
prescribe final design requirements. Under the FRA Interim
Rules, TIH cars manufactured after the effective date of the
rules must be built to a higher pressure class rating relative
to U.S. Department of Transportation specifications for
tank cars used to transport other commodities. Unlike the
original version of the rules proposed in 2008, the FRA Interim
Rules as adopted do not include a retirement schedule for TIH
cars manufactured prior to effective date of the rules. However,
the FRA Interim Rules require that existing TIH cars receive
appropriate certification from the Association of American
Railroads (AAR) in order to remain in TIH service.
The certification requirements are currently being developed by
the AAR and until they are finalized, GATX cannot conclude
precisely what impact, if any, the FRA Interim Rules may have on
GATXs tank car fleet. However, as of December 31,
2009, only 1,989 TIH cars remained in service in GATXs
fleet (approximately 1.8% of its North American fleet) and,
based upon managements review to date, GATX does not
expect that the FRA Interim Rules will have a material impact on
the Companys financial position or results of operations.
European Regulatory
Developments. An immaterial number of
railcars owned by GATX Rail Austria GmbH (an indirect subsidiary
of the Company, GATX Rail Austria) and its
subsidiaries, continue to be affected by restrictions on their
movement imposed by the Italian rail safety authorities. The
restrictions are focused on certain wheelsets of the type
installed on one of the railcars involved in the June 29,
2009, accident in the city of Viareggio, Italy. (See
Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements for
further information on the accident.) However, due to
29
the small number of cars that are affected, the Company does not
believe that these restrictions will have a material impact on
the Companys financial position or results of operations.
Consistent with recent enhancements to European railcar industry
practices and regulatory directives announced after the
Viareggio accident, GATX Rail Austria and its subsidiaries have
begun to implement a modified wheelset inspection program.
Future industry actions and regulatory directives may require
further modifications of the maintenance and inspection
practices of GATX Rail Austria and its subsidiaries. GATX Rail
Austria and its subsidiaries will likely incur higher
maintenance expenses in the near term as implementation of the
program proceeds. As the program has only recently commenced,
the Company cannot yet predict the magnitude of the change in
maintenance costs, or the timing of these costs. Further, the
scope and cost of any potential future maintenance initiatives,
in addition to the modified wheelset inspection program, are not
known at this time. The Company does not currently expect that
the costs associated with the wheelset inspection program and
other potential initiatives will be material to the
Companys financial position or liquidity. However, any
such costs could have a material adverse effect on the results
of operations in a particular quarter or fiscal year.
Labor
Agreements
The hourly employees at Rails three U.S. service
centers are represented by the United Steelworkers of America
(USWA) and are operating under a collective
bargaining agreement that is in effect through February 2010.
Negotiations are currently underway. Employees at three of
Rails Canadian service centers are represented by the
Communication, Energy and Paperworkers Union of Canada
(CEP) under separate collective bargaining
agreements. Two of the three agreements are in effect until
January 2011 and one agreement expired in January 2010 (with
negotiations scheduled to begin in March 2010). The hourly
employees at the fourth Canadian service center are represented
by an independent employee association with a collective
bargaining agreement scheduled to expire on December 31,
2010.
Specialty
Segment
Summary
Specialtys total asset base, including off balance sheet
assets, was $676.9 million at December 31, 2009,
compared to $652.9 million at December 31, 2008, and
$520.0 million at December 31, 2007. Investment volume
in 2009 was $119.5 million compared to $163.3 million
in 2008 and consisted of $81.4 million in joint ventures
(including a scheduled $55.4 million shareholder loan
repayment) and $33.4 million in industrial equipment. The
estimated net book value equivalent of Specialtys managed
assets was $251.9 million at December 31, 2009.
Specialtys financial results declined significantly in
2009 due to the combined effects of the global recession and
capital market volatility. Specifically, the worldwide economic
slowdown has caused a dramatic reduction in ocean-going shipping
volumes and rates across all sectors, compared to the historical
highs achieved in recent years. This has negatively impacted
Specialtys income from marine joint ventures, a major
contributor to the segments profitability over the past
several years. Additionally, capital market volatility has
created downward pressure on asset prices, resulting in reduced
asset remarketing opportunities. These volatile conditions,
particularly in the secondary markets for equipment, also
resulted in limited acceptable investment opportunities for
Specialty in 2009.
While there have been some initial signs of recovery in certain
areas of the economy, the timing of any impact on
Specialtys results is uncertain and challenging operating
conditions will likely continue in 2010. Specialty will continue
to consider investment opportunities in a disciplined manner
focusing on targeted asset types, asset cost and appropriate
risk-adjusted returns.

Comparison
of Year Ended December 31, 2009, to Year Ended
December 31, 2008
Segment
Profit
Specialtys segment profit of $51.6 million was
$54.3 million or 51.3% lower than the prior year. The
decrease was primarily due to significantly lower joint venture
and asset remarketing income and higher interest expense.
Gross
Income
Gross income decreased $45.6 million from the prior year,
primarily due to lower joint venture and asset remarketing
income. Lease income decreased $2.1 million, primarily due
to lower usage rents from pooled barges. Asset remarketing
income decreased $7.5 million from the prior year. The
current year consisted primarily of $11.1 million of
residual sharing gains and the prior year included
$11.4 million of residual sharing gains from the sale of
assets in the managed portfolio and $7.1 million from the
sale of marine equipment. Other income decreased
$2.3 million, primarily due to $2.4 million of fees
received in the prior year from the termination of residual
value guarantee contracts. Affiliates earnings decreased
$33.7 million, primarily due to a combination of factors in
the marine joint ventures, including lower charter rates and
shipping volumes attributable to the slowdown in the global
economy and several out of service vessels undergoing unplanned
repairs. Affiliates earnings also included
$2.8 million of remarketing gains in 2009 compared to
$10.3 million in 2008.
Ownership
Costs
Ownership costs increased $8.7 million from the prior year,
primarily due to depreciation and interest expense related to
investments made in 2008 and 2009, including the repayment of an
affiliate shareholder loan in 2009.
Other
Costs and Expenses
Other costs and expenses in 2009 were comparable to the prior
year as higher provisions for losses and asset impairment
charges were offset by lower pooled barge operating costs and a
favorable difference in the fair value adjustment for warrants.
Provisions for losses in 2009 were $3.7 million compared to
$0.3 million in 2008 and asset impairment charges in 2009
were $2.7 million compared to $2.3 million in 2008.
31
Comparison
of Year Ended December 31, 2008, to Year Ended
December 31, 2007
Segment
Profit
Specialtys segment profit of $105.9 million was
$11.6 million or 9.9% lower than the prior year. The
decrease was primarily due to lower asset remarketing, interest
and affiliates income and higher operating costs for
pooled barges.
Gross
Income
Gross income decreased slightly from the prior year. Lease
income increased $7.1 million, primarily due to income from
investments made in 2007 and 2008. Asset remarketing income
decreased $5.9 million from the prior year. The current
year included $11.4 million of residual sharing gains from
the sale of assets in the managed portfolio and
$7.1 million from the sale of marine equipment. The prior
year included an $18.3 million gain on the sale of marine
equipment and a $3.9 million residual sharing gain. Other
income decreased $2.3 million, primarily due to lower
interest income resulting from loan repayments in 2007.
Affiliates earnings in 2008 decreased $1.6 million
from the prior year. The prior year included $12.5 million
of income from a joint venture that was liquidated. Excluding
the effect of this affiliate on current and prior year income,
affiliates earnings increased $10.4 million primarily
due to higher marine and aircraft engine leasing joint venture
earnings and higher remarketing income. Remarketing income from
affiliates in the current year contributed $10.3 million to
affiliates earnings compared to $6.8 million in the
prior year. While in aggregate, operating results from the
marine affiliates were higher in 2008, market conditions
weakened materially in the fourth quarter.
Ownership
Costs
Ownership costs increased $6.6 million from the prior year,
primarily due to depreciation and interest expense related to
investments made in 2007 and 2008.
Other
Costs and Expenses
Other costs and expenses in 2008 were $2.3 million higher
than the prior year, primarily due to remeasurement losses on
non-functional currency denominated assets and higher operating
costs for pooled barges, partially offset by a lower provision
for losses in 2008.
ASC
Segment
Summary
The Great Lakes shipping market was severely depressed
throughout 2009, driven in large part by the downturn in the
steel industry. For the year, ASC transported 21.2 million
net tons of freight, compared to 35.7 million net tons in
the prior year. The largest reduction in volume was in iron ore
shipments, however, all commodity types experienced declines
year over year. In 2009, ASC deployed only 12 vessels
compared to the entire fleet of 18 vessels in 2008.
Late in 2009, certain steel manufacturers reopened some idled
facilities, and demand for iron ore shipments increased
modestly. However, the duration and extent to which this
improvement extends into 2010 and the impact on volume
requirements remains highly uncertain. ASC is entering 2010 with
an expectation that approximately 9-10 vessels may be put
into service for the year. To minimize costs, winter maintenance
will be deferred on laid up vessels until market conditions
necessitate their return to service.

Comparison
of Year Ended December 31, 2009, to Year Ended
December 31, 2008
Segment
Profit
ASCs segment profit decreased $10.1 million from the
prior year. The decrease was primarily due to significantly
lower freight volume in 2009, partially offset by lower
depreciation expense due to an increase in the
33
estimated depreciable lives of certain of ASCs vessels.
Additionally, segment profit was impacted by a $5.6 million
litigation recovery recorded in the current year compared to a
$3.3 million litigation loss in the prior year.
Gross
Income
Gross income in 2009 decreased $138.8 million from prior
year, primarily due to significantly lower freight volume and
reduced fuel surcharges (the effect of which is largely offset
in operating costs). In accordance with certain contract
provisions, ASC is able to recover a large portion of fuel cost
increases from its customers. Net tons carried in 2009 were
21.2 million compared to 35.7 million in 2008, with
iron ore volume declining by 10.3 million, coal declining
by 2.4 million and limestone declining by 2.0 million.
Ownership
Costs
Ownership costs decreased $3.8 million, primarily due to
$3.2 million lower depreciation expense resulting from an
increase in the estimated useful lives of 12 of ASCs
18 vessels. This change in useful lives of vessels will
have a similar impact in future years.
Other
Costs and Expenses
Maintenance costs were $1.5 million lower, primarily due to
the deployment of fewer vessels into service. Marine operating
expenses decreased $114.6 million, primarily due to reduced
shipping activity and lower fuel costs in 2009. Other expenses
in 2009 included the receipt of a $5.6 million litigation
settlement and, in 2008, included a $3.3 million litigation
loss (including legal costs).
Comparison
of Year Ended December 31, 2008, to Year Ended
December 31, 2007
Segment
Profit
ASCs segment profit of $26.2 million in 2008
increased $5.5 million from the prior year. The results for
2008 were negatively impacted by a $3.3 million litigation
loss (including legal costs). Excluding the impact of the
litigation, the favorable variance of $8.8 million was
primarily due to increased revenues resulting from higher base
freight rates, partially offset by lower freight volume.
Gross
Income
Gross income in 2008 increased $38.5 million from the prior
year. The increase was primarily due to base freight rate
increases and higher fuel surcharges, which were offset in
operating costs. Reduced freight volume due to the market
downturn, largely in the fourth quarter, partially offset these
increases. Total net tons carried in 2008 were 35.7 million
compared to 37.3 million in 2007.
Ownership
Costs
Ownership costs in 2008 were comparable to the prior year.
Other
Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses increased $32.7 million in
2008, primarily due to higher fuel costs of $34.7 million.
Excluding the impact of higher fuel, the variance to the prior
year was favorable due to improved weather conditions and higher
water levels, which enabled the fleet to operate more
efficiently. Additionally, operating costs were lower due to
fewer operating days than the prior year, particularly in the
fourth quarter. As previously noted, other expenses in 2008
included a $3.3 million litigation loss.
ASC
Regulatory Issues
Since February 2009, ASC has been operating under the terms and
conditions of the Vessel General Permit (VGP) issued
by the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) pursuant to permitting requirements of the
Clean Water Act (CWA). The VGP regulates discharges
incidental to the normal operation of ships,
34
including ballast water discharges. Several states imposed
additional state-specific limitations and monitoring
requirements which have become enforceable conditions of the VGP
pursuant to Section 401(d) of the CWA, including with
respect to discharges of ballast water. In August 2009, the
U.S. Coast Guard issued proposed ballast water treatment
standards, to be implemented in two phases, for allowable
concentrations of living organisms in ballast water discharged
when transiting between all major U.S. ports, including
those on the Great Lakes. The phase-one standard is based on the
International Maritime Organizations standard.
Installations of phase-one treatment systems would be required
by the first dry-docking after 2016 for ASCs existing
fleet and all new vessels after January 2012. Adoption of the
phase-two standard is subject to a technical review to determine
whether technology to achieve the standard can be practicably
implemented. If implemented, the phase-two standard would be
1,000-times more stringent than the phase-one standard.
The rules as proposed could significantly impact the operations
of all Great Lakes carriers, including ASC, as the efficient
operation of lake vessels requires the rapid discharge of large
volumes of ballast water to minimize time spent in port.
Currently, there are no rapid discharge systems capable of
treating to the phase-one standard and no treatment systems of
any kind capable of treating to the phase-two standard. ASC is
working cooperatively with federal and state agencies as well as
with members of the scientific community to find alternate means
of achieving the proposed standards that can be tested and
accepted by state and federal agencies prior to the proposed
compliance dates.
Labor
Agreements
The shipboard personnel at ASC belong to the American Maritime
Officers (AMO), the Seafarers International Union
(SIU) and the USWA Local 5000 (Local
5000), as the case may be. ASC has agreements with the SIU
and AMO that are effective through mid-2011. The collective
bargaining agreement with Local 5000 expired in August 2009 and
soon thereafter Local 5000 went on strike. In October 2009,
Local 5000 and ASC reached a tentative bargaining agreement to
settle the strike and in November 2009 the tentative agreement
was rejected by the unions membership. Given decreased
demand in 2009, ASC only operated three of the six vessels
represented by Local 5000 and used temporary replacement crews.
ASC did not experience any material operating delays or
constraints as a result of the strike and does not anticipate
any material operating delays or constraints in the 2010 sailing
season.

SG&A,
Unallocated Interest and Other
In 2009, SG&A of $127.8 million decreased
$41.1 million or 24.3% from 2008. The decrease was driven
by lower compensation expense of $22.6 million and the
absence of $5.2 million of business development expenses
and a $2.3 million impairment charge associated with a
terminated IT project, both incurred in the prior year. In 2008,
SG&A increased $9.6 million over 2007, primarily due
to approximately $5.2 million of business development costs
related to the review and analysis of rail portfolio
acquisitions that ultimately were not pursued, a
$2.3 million impairment charge associated with a terminated
IT project, higher compensation expense and stronger foreign
currencies.
35
Unallocated interest expense is the difference between actual
external interest expense incurred (net of interest income
earned on certain cash balances) and amounts allocated to the
reporting segments in accordance with assigned leverage targets.
The credit for unallocated interest expense in 2007 primarily
reflects the impact of significantly lower consolidated leverage
and higher cash balances following the sale of the former Air
segment in December 2006. Interest income included in
unallocated interest expense was $0.1 million,
$0.6 million and $6.1 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.
Other income and expense in 2009 primarily consisted of a
reduction of a non-income tax accrual and, in 2008, primarily
consisted of a $3.8 million impairment loss on a money
market fund investment, the net asset value of which fell below
one dollar per share. The fund is in the process of liquidation.
Eliminations were immaterial for all periods presented.
Consolidated
Income Taxes
GATXs effective tax rate for 2009 was 24.6% compared to
27.2% in 2008 and 28.0% in 2007. In 2009, foreign tax credits of
$7.4 million were recognized upon completion of an
international tax strategy that included the repatriation of
approximately $174 million in foreign earnings. The
effective tax rate for 2008 included a deferred tax benefit of
$6.8 million attributable to the expiration of the statute
of limitations on a state income tax position taken in a prior
year. GATXs effective tax rate for 2007 reflects favorable
deferred tax adjustments due to reductions in statutory tax
rates enacted in Canada, the United Kingdom and Germany, which
resulted in the recognition of $20.1 million in benefits.
Excluding the tax benefits noted herein, GATXs effective
tax rate was 31.5% in 2009, 29.7% in 2008 and 35.9% in 2007.
Variability of GATXs effective tax rate is driven in part
by the mix of
pre-tax
income between domestic and foreign jurisdictions. See
Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for
additional information on income taxes.
Discontinued
Operations
During 2007, GATX completed the sale of the remainder of its
aircraft leasing business (formerly the Air segment)
to Macquarie Aircraft Leasing Limited for final gross proceeds
of $229.9 million. Accordingly, Air has been segregated and
classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

In 2007, gain on disposal of segment primarily consisted of the
reversal of $20.9 million of accrued income taxes resulting
from an enacted change in federal income tax regulations and the
finalization of the tax effects of the Air sale. Operating
results of discontinued operations reflect directly attributable
revenues, ownership, operating, interest and SG&A expenses
and income taxes.
See Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for
additional information on discontinued operations.
BALANCE
SHEET DISCUSSION
Assets
Assets of continuing operations were $5.2 billion at
December 31, 2009 and 2008. In addition to assets recorded
on its balance sheet, GATX utilizes approximately
$1.0 billion of other assets, primarily railcars, which are
financed with operating leases and therefore are not recorded on
the balance sheet. The off balance sheet assets represent the
estimated present value of GATXs committed future

Gross
Receivables
Receivables of $378.4 million at December 31, 2009,
including leveraged leases net of nonrecourse debt, decreased
$37.7 million from December 31, 2008, primarily due to
lower lease and marine operating income.
Allowance
for Possible Losses
The purpose of the allowance is to provide an estimate of credit
losses inherent in reservable assets. Reservable assets are
divided into two categories: rent and other receivables, which
represent short-term trade billings, and finance lease
receivables. Reserves for rent and other receivables are based
on historical loss experience and judgments about the impact of
present economic conditions, collateral values, and the state of
the markets in which GATX operates. In addition, GATX may
establish specific reserves for known troubled accounts. Reserve
estimates for finance lease receivables are generally evaluated
on a customer specific basis, considering the same factors as
rent and other receivables as well as a regular assessment of
each customers specific credit situation. There were no
material changes in estimation methods or assumptions for the
allowance during 2009. GATX believes that the allowance is
adequate to cover losses inherent in its reservable assets as of
December 31, 2009. Since the allowance is based on
judgments and estimates, it is possible actual losses incurred
will differ from the estimate.
As of December 31, 2009, allowances for trade receivables
were $2.5 million or 3.6% of rent and other receivables
compared to $3.9 million or 4.7% at December 31, 2008.
Specific allowances for finance leases were $10.9 million
at December 31, 2009, compared to $14.7 million at
December 31, 2008. The decrease in specific allowances in
2009 was primarily due to the reversal of a $6.9 million
provision on certain direct finance leases related to a Rail
customer that declared bankruptcy. In 2009, upon restructuring
of the lease terms in bankruptcy court, the classification of
the lease changed to an operating lease and all finance lease
balances were reversed, including the provision. As a result of
the lease reclassification, the operating lease assets were
recorded at fair value and an impairment charge of
$4.4 million was recorded, representing the difference
between fair value and carrying value. The reversal of the
provision in 2009 was partially offset by required provisions
for certain other customers.

possible losses as of December 31 (in millions):

Operating
Assets and Facilities
Net operating assets and facilities increased
$111.7 million from 2008. The increase was primarily due to
investments of $380.5 million, foreign exchange rate
effects of $25.9 million and $10.7 million of
purchases of leased-in assets, partially offset by depreciation
of $217.7 million.
Investments
in Affiliated Companies
Investments in affiliated companies increased $52.9 million
in 2009, primarily due to investments of $81.4 million
(including a scheduled $55.4 million shareholder loan
repayment) and equity earnings of $29.0 million, partially
offset by dividend distributions of $35.9 million.

Goodwill
In 2009 and 2008, changes in the balance of GATXs
goodwill, all of which is attributable to the Rail segment,
resulted solely from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
GATX tests goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter of each
year and no impairments were indicated. While GATX does not
believe that the carrying value of goodwill is at risk of
becoming impaired in future periods, an impairment could result
if existing depressed market conditions continue for an extended
period or otherwise worsen.
Debt
Total debt increased $103.5 million from the prior year,
primarily due to debt issuances of $646.8 million,
partially offset by scheduled maturities and principal payments
of $433.7 million, debt prepayments of $47.1 million
and a net reduction of $55.3 million in commercial paper
and borrowings under bank credit facilities.

reported as off balance sheet assets. |
Subsequent
events
On January 29, 2010, GATX called the convertible notes for
redemption. On February 5, 2010, GATX issued
$250 million of unsecured notes due May 15, 2015, at a
yield of 4.92%.
See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for
additional information.
Equity
Total equity decreased $21.9 million from the prior year,
primarily due to $55.1 million of stock repurchases made in
2009, $54.0 million of dividends and $12.7 million
from the effects of post-retirement benefit plan adjustments.
These decreases were partially offset by $81.4 million of
net income and an $18.3 million foreign currency
translation adjustment due to the balance sheet effects of a
weaker U.S. dollar.
CASH FLOW
DISCUSSION
GATX generates a significant amount of cash from its operating
activities and proceeds from its investment portfolio, which is
used to service debt, pay dividends, and fund portfolio
investments and capital additions. Cash flows from operations
and portfolio proceeds are impacted by changes in working
capital and the timing of asset dispositions. As a result, cash
flow components will vary materially from quarter to quarter and
year to year. As of December 31, 2009, GATX had
unrestricted cash balances of $41.7 million. The following
discussion of cash flow activity is presented excluding the
impact of discontinued operations.
Net Cash
Provided by Operating Activities of Continuing
Operations
Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing
operations of $265.4 million decreased $98.6 million
compared to 2008. The decrease was primarily driven by a
$45.0 million increase in current year contributions to
GATXs domestic funded pension plans, lower Rail lease
income, decreased Specialty joint venture dividends and a
smaller net contribution from ASC, partially offset by lower
SG&A.
Portfolio
Investments and Capital Additions
Portfolio investments and capital additions primarily consist of
purchases of operating assets, investments in joint ventures,
loans and capitalized asset improvements. During 2009, Rail
acquired approximately 3,300 railcars in North America and 500
railcars in Europe, compared to approximately 7,900 railcars in
2008, which included 3,650 cars from Allco. Specialty
investments in 2009 primarily consisted of $81.4 million in
joint ventures (including a scheduled $55.4 million
shareholder loan repayment) and $33.4 million in industrial
equipment. Specialty investments in 2008 included
$36.9 million in industrial equipment, $64.1 million
in marine assets and $59.8 million in joint ventures. ASC
investments of $7.2 million in 2009 and $7.6 million
in 2008 primarily
39
consisted of structural and mechanical upgrades to the vessel
fleet. Other investments of $8.4 million in 2009 primarily
consisted of information technology expenditures that support
GATXs operations and in 2008 included leasehold
improvements related to the relocation of the corporate
headquarters. The timing of investments is dependent on purchase
commitments, transaction opportunities and market conditions.

investments and capital additions by segment for the years ended
December 31 (in millions):

Portfolio
Proceeds
Portfolio proceeds primarily consist of loan and finance lease
receipts, proceeds from asset remarketing and sales of
securities, and capital distributions from affiliates. Portfolio
proceeds in 2008 and 2007 were favorably impacted by high levels
of asset remarketing proceeds.
Portfolio proceeds were as follows for the years ended December

Other
Investing Activity
In 2009, Rail acquired 571 previously leased-in railcars for
$10.7 million and completed a sale-leaseback for 597
railcars for net proceeds of $45.7 million. In 2008, Rail
acquired 3,628 previously leased-in railcars for
$70.1 million and the assumption of $74.7 million of
related nonrecourse debt. Proceeds from sales of other assets
primarily relate to the scrapping of railcars except for 2008,
which also included $22.2 million of proceeds from the sale
of the office building in Europe. Scrapping proceeds in North
America were $22.6 million, $36.8 million and
$14.3 million in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Other
investing activity in 2008 of $42.1 million reflects the
balance sheet reclassification of a money market fund investment
that became illiquid when the per share net asset value fell
below one dollar. Other investing activity in 2009 consists of
distributions of $36.0 million from this fund.
Net Cash
used in Financing Activities of Continuing Operations
Net cash used in financing activities of continuing operations
was $17.9 million in 2009, compared to net cash provided of
$122.1 million in 2008. Repayments of debt of
$536.1 million in 2009 primarily consisted of scheduled
maturities, principal payments on nonrecouse debt and a net
reduction in commercial paper and borrowings under bank credit
facilities. Stock repurchases made under the $200 million
GATX common stock repurchase program were $55.1 million for
2.8 million shares in 2009 and $76.5 million for
2.1 million shares in 2008. Debt proceeds in 2009 totaled
$636.1 million (net of hedges and issuance costs).
Dividends paid in 2009 were $53.6 million.
40
Cash
Flows of Discontinued Operations
Net cash provided by discontinued operations of
$181.8 million in 2007 primarily consisted of final
proceeds received upon completion of the Air sale, partially
offset by allocated income tax payments.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
General
GATX funds its investments and meets its debt, lease and
dividend obligations through available cash balances, cash
generated from continuing operating activities, portfolio
proceeds, sales of other assets, commercial paper issuances,
committed revolving credit facilities and the issuance of
secured and unsecured debt. Cash from operations and commercial
paper issuances are the primary sources of cash used to fund
daily operations. GATX utilizes both domestic and international
capital markets and banks for its debt financing needs.

Shelf
Registration Statement
GATX maintains an effective shelf registration statement on file
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) that enables it to issue public debt
securities and pass-through certificates. The registration
statement expires in August 2010.
Credit
Lines and Facilities
GATX has a $550 million unsecured revolving credit facility
that matures in May 2012. At December 31, 2009,
availability under this facility was $506.9 million, with
$30.5 million of commercial paper outstanding and
$12.6 million of letters of credit issued, both of which
are backed by the facility. GATX also has revolving lines of
credit totaling $67.3 million in Europe. At
December 31, 2009, availability under these lines of credit
was $28.6 million. At the end of the third quarter of 2009,
GATX terminated a $100 million,
364-day,
unsecured revolving credit facility.
41
Restrictive
Covenants
The $550 million revolving credit facility contains various
restrictive covenants, including requirements to maintain a
fixed charge coverage ratio and an asset coverage test.
GATXs ratio of earnings to fixed charges, as defined in
this facility, was 1.5 for the period ended December 31,
2009, in excess of the minimum covenant ratio of 1.2. At
December 31, 2009, GATX was in compliance with all
covenants and conditions of the $550 million facility.
Certain of GATXs bank term loans have the same financial
covenants as the $550 million facility.
The indentures for GATXs public debt contain limitation on
liens provisions that limit the amount of secured indebtedness
that GATX may incur, subject to several exceptions, including
those permitting an unlimited amount of purchase money
indebtedness and nonrecourse indebtedness. In addition to the
previously specified exceptions, GATX would be able to incur
liens securing a maximum of $823.7 million of additional
indebtedness as of December 31, 2009, based on the most
restrictive limitation on liens provision. At December 31,
2009, GATX was in compliance with all covenants and conditions
of the indentures.
The loan agreements for certain of GATXs wholly-owned
European Rail subsidiaries (collectively, GRE) also
contain restrictive covenants, including leverage and cash flow
covenants specific to those subsidiaries, restrictions on making
loans and limitations on the ability of those subsidiaries to
repay loans to certain related parties (including GATX) and to
pay dividends to GATX. The covenants relating to loans and
dividends effectively limit the ability of GRE to transfer funds
to GATX. At December 31, 2009, the maximum amount that GRE
could transfer to GATX without violating its covenants was
$24.8 million, implying that $404.1 million of
subsidiary net assets were restricted. Restricted net assets are
defined as equity less 50% of free cash flow. At
December 31, 2009, GRE was in compliance with all covenants
and conditions of these loan agreements.
Another subsidiarys financing, guaranteed by GATX,
contains various restrictive covenants, including requirements
for GATX to maintain a defined net worth and a fixed charge
coverage ratio. This fixed charge coverage ratio covenant is
less restrictive than that contained in the revolving credit
facility.
GATX does not anticipate any covenant violations nor does it
anticipate that any of these covenants will restrict its
operations or its ability to procure additional financing.
See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for
detailed information on GATXs credit facilities, debt
obligations and related restrictive covenants.
Credit
Ratings
The availability of GATXs funding options may be affected
by certain factors, including the global capital market
environment and outlook as well as GATXs financial
performance. GATXs access to capital markets at
competitive rates is dependent on its credit rating and rating
outlook, as determined by rating agencies such as
Standard & Poors (S&P) and
Moodys Investor Service (Moodys). As of
December 31, 2009, GATXs long-term unsecured debt was
rated BBB+ by S&P and Baa1 by Moodys. GATXs
short-term unsecured debt was rated
A-2 by
S&P and
P-2 by
Moodys. During 2009, Moodys revised its rating
outlook on GATX from stable to negative and S&P removed
GATX from credit watch negative, affirmed GATXs long-term
unsecured debt credit rating at BBB+ and changed GATXs
rating outlook from stable to negative. GATX does not expect
these actions or potential subsequent actions to have a material
impact on GATXs access to the capital markets or to its
future debt financing costs.
2010
Liquidity Position
GATX expects that it will be able to meet its contractual
obligations for 2010 through a combination of projected cash
from continuing operations, portfolio proceeds and its revolving
credit facilities as well as available cash at December 31,
2009.

Commercial
Commitments
In connection with certain investments or transactions, GATX has
entered into various commercial commitments, such as guarantees
and standby letters of credit, which could require performance
in the event of demands by third parties. Similar to GATXs
balance sheet investments, these guarantees expose GATX to
credit, market and equipment risk; accordingly, GATX evaluates
its commitments and other contingent obligations using
techniques similar to those used to evaluate funded transactions.

No specific maturity date. |
Affiliate guarantees generally involve guaranteeing repayment of
the financing utilized to acquire or lease in assets and are in
lieu of making direct equity investments in the affiliate. GATX
is not aware of any event of default which would require it to
satisfy these guarantees and expects the affiliates to generate
sufficient cash flow to satisfy their lease and loan obligations.
Asset residual value guarantees represent GATXs commitment
to third parties that an asset or group of assets will be worth
a specified amount at the end of a lease term. Approximately 68%
of the Companys asset residual value guarantees are
related to rail equipment. Based on known facts and current
market conditions, management does not believe that the asset
residual value guarantees will result in any negative financial
impact to GATX. Historically, gains associated with the residual
value guarantees have exceeded any losses incurred. GATX
believes these asset residual value guarantees will likely
generate future income in the form of fees and residual sharing
proceeds.
Lease payment guarantees represent GATXs guarantees to
financial institutions of finance and operating lease payments
to unrelated parties in exchange for a fee. Any liability
resulting from GATXs performance pursuant to the lease
payment guarantees will be reduced by the value realized from
the underlying asset or group of assets.
Other consists of GATXs potential reimbursement obligation
to Airbus S.A.S (Airbus) for amounts Airbus may be
required to pay to GATX Flightlease Aircraft Ltd., a joint
venture partially owned by GATX (GFAC), in
connection with an aircraft purchase contract entered into by
GFAC and Airbus in 2001. GATXs potential reimbursement
obligation is applicable only under certain specified conditions
and is capped at approximately $77.8 million. No liability
has been recorded with respect to this potential reimbursement
as GATX believes that the likelihood of any required payment is
remote. The aircraft purchase contract, and other agreements
relating thereto, have been the subject of various litigation
proceedings that are described in Note 22 to the
consolidated financial statements.
GATX and its subsidiaries are also parties to standing letters
of credit and bonds primarily related to workers
compensation and general liability insurance coverages. No
material claims have been made against these obligations. At
December 31, 2009, GATX does not expect any material losses
to result from these off balance sheet instruments since
performance is not anticipated to be required.
Defined
Benefit Plan Contributions
In 2009, GATX contributed $45.5 million to its funded
pension plans. As a result of these contributions and a partial
recovery in investment asset values, as of December 31,
2009, the funded pension plans were 94% funded. In aggregate in
2009, GATX contributed $51.6 million to its funded and
unfunded defined benefit plans and other post-retirement
benefits. In 2010, the Company expects to make contributions of
approximately $21.4 million. Additional contributions will
be dependent on a number of factors including plan asset
investment returns and actuarial experience. Subject to the
impact of these factors, the Company may make additional
material plan contributions. See Note 10 to the
consolidated financial statements for additional information on
GATXs benefit plans.
44
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in
conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in
making estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures.
The Company regularly evaluates its estimates and judgments
based on historical experience, market indicators and other
relevant factors and circumstances. Actual results may differ
from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The Company considers the following as critical accounting
policies:
|
|
|
|
|
Operating assets Operating assets, including
assets acquired under capital lease, are stated principally at
historical cost and are depreciated using the straight-line
method to an estimated salvage value. The majority of
GATXs assets have useful lives in excess of 30 years
and the estimate of salvage value requires a projection of value
significantly in the future. GATX periodically reviews the
appropriateness of depreciable lives and salvage value estimates
based on physical and economic factors, as well as existing
market conditions. Changes in these estimates could result in a
change in depreciation expense.
|
In addition, GATX reviews long-lived assets such as operating
assets and facilities for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these
assets may not be recoverable. GATX measures recoverability of
assets to be held and used by comparing the carrying amount of
an asset to estimated future net cash flows expected to be
generated by it. Estimated future cash flows are based on a
number of assumptions including lease rates, lease term
(including renewals), freight rates and volume, operating costs,
life of the asset and final disposition proceeds. If such assets
are determined to be impaired, the impairment loss to be
recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
amount of the assets exceeds estimated fair value. Fair value is
based on discounted future cash flows supplemented with
independent appraisals and market comparables when available and
appropriate.
|
|
|
|
|
Lease Classification GATX analyzes all new
and modified leases in order to determine whether the lease is
classified as an operating or capital lease. The lease
classification analysis relies on certain assumptions that
require significant judgment, such as the asset fair value, the
estimated residual value, the interest rate implicit in the
lease, and the economic useful life of the asset. While most of
GATXs leases are classified as operating leases, changes
in the assumptions used could result in a different lease
classification, which would change the manner in which the lease
transaction impacts GATXs financial position and results
of operations.
|
|
|
|
Impairment of investments in affiliated companies
GATX reviews the carrying amount of its
investments in affiliates annually, or whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in value may
have occurred. If management determines that indicators of
impairment are present for an investment, an analysis is
performed to estimate the fair value of that investment. Active
markets do not exist for the majority of GATXs affiliate
investments and as a result, GATX estimates fair value using
discounted cash flow analysis at the investee level,
price-earnings ratios based on comparable businesses, or other
valuation techniques that are appropriate for the particular
circumstances of the affiliate and for which sufficient data are
available. For all fair value estimates, GATX utilizes
observable inputs whenever possible and appropriate.
|
Once an estimate of fair value is made, it is compared to the
investments carrying value. If the investments
estimated fair value is less than its carrying value, then the
investment is deemed impaired. If an investment is deemed
impaired, then a determination is made as to whether the
impairment is
other-than-temporary.
Factors that management considers in making this determination
include expected operating results for the near future, the
length of the economic life cycle of the underlying assets of
the investee and the ability of GATX to hold the investment
through the end of the underlying assets useful life.
Anticipated actions that are probable of being taken by investee
management that may improve its business prospects are also
considered. If management reasonably determines an investment to
be only temporarily impaired, no impairment loss is recorded.
Alternatively, if management determines that an impairment is
other-than-temporary,
a loss equal to the difference between the estimated fair value
of the investment and its carrying value is recorded in the
period of identification.
45
|
|
|
|
|
Impairment of goodwill GATX reviews the
carrying amount of its recorded goodwill annually or in interim
periods if circumstances indicate an impairment may have
occurred. The impairment review is performed at the reporting
unit level, which is one level below an operating segment. The
goodwill impairment test is a two-step process and requires
management to make certain judgments in determining applicable
assumptions used in the calculation. The first step consists of
estimating the fair value of each reporting unit, which GATX
determines based on a discounted cash flow model. The future
cash flows are estimated based on revenue and expense forecasts
and includes assumptions for future growth. In estimating the
fair value of the reporting unit, GATX also considers observable
multiples of book value and earnings for companies that
management believes are comparable to the applicable reporting
units. Management then compares its estimate of the fair value
of the reporting unit with the reporting units carrying
amount, which includes goodwill. If the estimated fair value is
less than the carrying amount, an additional step is performed
that compares the implied fair value of the reporting
units goodwill with the carrying amount of the goodwill.
The determination of a reporting units implied fair value
of the goodwill requires management to allocate the estimated
fair value of the reporting unit to the assets and liabilities
of the reporting unit. Any unallocated fair value represents the
implied fair value of the goodwill. To the extent that the
carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair value,
an impairment loss is recorded.
|
|
|
|
Pension and Post-Retirement Benefits Assumptions
GATX uses actuarial assumptions to calculate
pension and other post-retirement benefit obligations and
related costs. Two critical assumptions, the discount rate and
the expected return on plan assets, are important elements of
plan expense and liability measurement. Other assumptions
involve demographic factors such as expected retirement age,
mortality, employee turnover, health care cost trends and rate
of compensation increases.
|
GATX uses the discount rate to calculate the present value of
expected future pension and post-retirement cash flows as of the
measurement date. The discount rate is based on yields for
high-quality, long-term bonds, with durations similar to that of
the projected benefit obligation. The expected long-term rate of
return on plan assets is based on current and expected asset
allocations, as well as historical and expected returns on
various categories of plan assets. GATX evaluates these critical
assumptions annually and makes adjustments as required in
accordance with changes in underlying market conditions,
valuation of plan assets, or demographics. Changes in these
assumptions may increase or decrease periodic benefit plan
expense as well as the carrying value of benefit plan assets or
obligations. See Note 10 to the consolidated financial
statements for additional information regarding these
assumptions.

Share-Based Compensation GATX provides equity
awards to certain employees and non-employee directors in the
form of stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted
stock, performance share awards and phantom stock awards.
Compensation expense for these awards is recognized on a
pro-rata basis over the applicable vesting period based on the
awards grant date fair value. GATX uses the Black-Scholes
options valuation model to calculate the grant date fair value
of SARs. This model requires GATX to make certain assumptions,
some of which are highly subjective, which will affect the
amount of compensation expense to be recorded. Assumptions used
in the model include expected stock price volatility (based on
the historical volatility of GATXs stock price), the
risk-free interest rate (based on the treasury yield curve), the
expected life of the equity award (based on historical exercise
patterns and post-vesting termination behavior) and the expected
dividend equivalents to be paid during the estimated life of the
equity award (since GATXs SARs are dividend
participating). The fair value of other equity awards is based
on GATXs stock price on the grant date. See Note 11
to the consolidated financial statements for additional
information on share-based compensation.

Income Taxes GATXs operations are
subject to taxes in the U.S., various states and foreign
countries and as result, may be subject to audit in all of these
jurisdictions. Tax audits may involve complex issues and
disagreements with taxing authorities that could require several
years to resolve. GAAP requires that GATX presume that uncertain
income tax positions will be examined by the relevant tax
authority and determine whether it is more likely than not that
the income tax position will be sustained upon examination,
including resolution of any related appeals or litigation
processes, based on the technical merits of the position. An
income tax position that meets the more likely than not
recognition threshold is then evaluated to determine the
probable amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial
statements. Establishing accruals for
|
46
|
|
|
|
|
uncertain tax benefits requires management to make estimates and
assessments with respect to the ultimate outcome of tax audit
issues and amounts recorded in the financial statements. The
ultimate resolution of such uncertain tax benefits may differ
from managements estimate, potentially impacting the
Companys financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
|
GATX evaluates the need for a deferred tax asset valuation
allowance by assessing the likelihood of whether deferred tax
assets, including net operating loss and tax credit carryforward
benefits, will be realized in the future. The assessment of
whether a valuation allowance is required involves judgment,
including the forecast of future taxable income and the
evaluation of tax planning initiatives, if applicable.
Taxes have not been provided on undistributed earnings of
foreign subsidiaries as GATX intends to permanently reinvest
such earnings in those foreign operations. If, in the future,
these earnings are repatriated to the U.S., or if the Company
expects such earnings to be repatriated, a provision for
additional taxes may be required.
See Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for
additional information on income taxes.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for a
summary of new accounting pronouncements that may impact
GATXs business.
Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
This report includes certain financial performance measures
computed using non-GAAP components as defined by the SEC. These
measures are return on equity, return on assets, income from
continuing operations excluding tax benefits and other items,
and diluted earnings per share excluding tax benefits and other
items. As required under SEC rules, GATX has provided a
reconciliation of those non-GAAP components to the most directly
comparable GAAP components. Financial performance measures
disclosed in this report are meant to provide additional
information and insight into the historical operating results
and financial position of the business. Management uses these
performance measures to assist in analyzing GATXs
underlying financial performance from period to period and to
establish criteria for compensation decisions. These measures
are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP and may be
different from, or inconsistent with, non-GAAP financial
measures used by other companies.

In 2009, $7.4 million of realized foreign tax credits. In
2008, the statute of limitations on a state income tax position
taken in a prior period expired, resulting in the recognition of
previously unrecognized tax benefits. In 2007, enacted
reductions in statutory tax rates in foreign jurisdictions
resulted in the recognition of deferred tax benefits. |

In 2009, $20.7 million (after-tax) from unrealized losses

$6.6 million (after-tax) from the reversal of environmental
reserves, both in Europe, and $3.3 million (after-tax) from
unrealized losses on AAE interest rate swaps. |

Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|
In the normal course of business, GATX is exposed to interest
rate and foreign currency exchange rate risks that could impact
results of its operations. To manage these risks, GATX, pursuant
to authorized policies, may enter into certain derivative
transactions, principally interest rate swaps, Treasury rate
locks, options and currency forwards and swaps. These
instruments and other derivatives are entered into only for
hedging existing underlying exposures. GATX does not hold or
issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Exposure GATXs interest
expense is affected by changes in interest rates, primarily
LIBOR, as a result of its use of floating rate debt instruments.
GATX generally manages its floating rate debt instruments in
relation to its floating rate investments. Based on GATXs
floating rate debt instruments at December 31, 2009, and
giving effect to related derivatives, a hypothetical increase in
market interest rates of 100 basis points would cause an
increase in after-tax interest expense of $4.6 million in
2010. Comparatively, at December 31, 2008, a hypothetical
100 basis point increase in interest rates would have
resulted in a $4.6 million increase in after-tax interest
expense in 2009.
Functional Currency/Reporting Currency Exchange Rate
Exposure GATX conducts operations in foreign
countries, principally Poland, Germany and Austria. As a result,
changes in the spot value of the U.S. dollar in terms of
foreign currencies, primarily the Euro and Polish zloty, would
affect GATXs reported earnings when these currencies are
converted to U.S. dollars upon consolidation. At
December 31, 2009, and based on earnings from continuing
operations in 2009, a uniform and hypothetical 10% strengthening
in the U.S. dollar versus applicable foreign currencies
would decrease after-tax income from continuing operations in
2010 by approximately $4.4 million. Comparatively, at
December 31, 2008, and based on earnings from continuing
operations in 2008, a uniform and hypothetical 10% increase in
the U.S. dollar versus applicable foreign currencies would
have resulted in a decrease in after-tax income from continuing
operations in 2009 of approximately $4.2 million.

Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of GATX Corporation and
subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
GATX Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009
and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income,
changes in shareholders equity, cash flows, and
comprehensive income (loss) for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2009. Our audits also included
the financial statement schedule listed in the index at
Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the
responsibility of the Companys management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of GATX Corporation and subsidiaries at
December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also,
in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken
as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial
statements, in 2007 the Company changed its method of accounting
for leveraged lease transactions and unrecognized tax benefits.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), GATX
Corporation and subsidiaries internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on
criteria established in Internal Control Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 25,
2010 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Description
of Business
|
GATX Corporation (GATX or the Company)
leases, operates and manages long-lived, widely used assets in
the rail, marine and industrial equipment markets. GATX also
invests in joint ventures that complement existing business
activities. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, GATX has three
financial reporting segments: Rail, Specialty and American
Steamship Company (ASC). In 2007, GATX completed the
sale of its aircraft leasing business (formerly the
Air segment). Accordingly, Air has been segregated
and classified as discontinued operations for all periods
presented.
|
|
NOTE 2.
|
Accounting
Changes
|
Codification In June 2009, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting
Standards Update
No. 2009-1,
Topic 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,
which identifies the FASB Accounting Standards Codification
(the Codification) as the single source of
authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). The Codification supersedes all
non-Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
accounting and reporting standards. All future accounting
standards will be issued in the form of Accounting Standards
Updates. Generally, the Codification is not expected to change
GAAP. GATX adopted the provisions of the Codification as of
September 30, 2009, and other than revisions to GATXs
references to applicable accounting guidance, the adoption had
no effect on GATXs financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
Fair Value Measurements As of January 1,
2009, GATX adopted authoritative accounting guidance governing
fair value measurements and disclosures that conforms the
definition of fair value for nonfinancial assets and liabilities
to the definition used for financial assets and liabilities. The
guidance was applicable to fair value measurements that GATX
performed relating to its long-lived assets, goodwill, and
investments in affiliates, but did not have a material effect on
GATXs financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
Fair Value of Defined Benefit Plan Assets
GATX adopted authoritative accounting guidance addressing
disclosures about pension assets for the year ended
December 31, 2009. The guidance requires additional
disclosures about the assets GATX holds in its defined benefit
pension and post-retirement plans, including the fair value
hierarchy classification for each major category of plan assets.
The application of the guidance has no impact on GATXs
financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See
Note 10 for additional details.
Leveraged Leases As of January 1, 2007,
GATX adopted authoritative accounting guidance affecting all
transactions classified as leveraged leases. The guidance
provides that if the expected timing of income tax cash flows
generated by a leveraged lease transaction changes, then the
rate of return and the allocation of income among reporting
periods must be recalculated, which may result in a non-cash
charge to earnings in the period of changed expectations. As a
result of the application of this guidance, GATX reduced the
carrying value of two leveraged lease investments and recorded a
corresponding reduction of $15.0 million, net of taxes, to
the 2007 opening balance of retained earnings. This amount will
be recognized as income over the remaining terms of the affected
leases, 2007 to 2021, and is not expected to be material in any
year.
Unrecognized tax benefits As of
January 1, 2007, GATX adopted authoritative accounting
guidance relating to the accounting for and reporting of
unrecognized tax benefits. The guidance defined the criteria
that an individual tax position must meet for any tax benefit to
be recognized in an enterprises financial statements. As a
result of the application of this guidance, GATX recorded an
$11.0 million decrease in the liability for unrecognized
tax benefits and a corresponding increase to the 2007 opening
balance of retained earnings. See Note 12 for additional
information.

NOTE 3.

Significant
Accounting Policies
|
Consolidation The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of GATX and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. Investments in affiliated companies (discussed
herein) are not consolidated. The consolidated financial
statements reflect the operations of the former Air segment as
discontinued operations for all periods
55
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
presented. GATX has investments that are considered variable
interest entities (VIEs). GATX has concluded that it
is not the primary beneficiary with respect to any of the VIEs
and therefore does not consolidate them. See Note 7 for a
complete discussion of VIEs.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP necessarily requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements. The Company
regularly evaluates its estimates and judgments based on
historical experience and other relevant facts and
circumstances. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.
Reclassification Certain amounts in the 2008
and 2007 financial statements have been reclassified to conform
to the 2009 presentation.
Fair Value Measurements As defined by GAAP,
fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset
or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value
measurements are classified according to a three level hierarchy
based on managements judgment about the reliability of the
inputs used in the fair value measurement. Level 1
measurements are those for which quoted prices are available in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2
measurements contain pricing inputs other than quoted prices in
active markets, such as quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by
observable market data for substantially the full term of the
assets or liabilities. Level 3 measurements contain
unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market
activity and that are significant to the fair value of the
assets or liabilities. Level 3 measurement techniques
typically include pricing models and discounted cash flow
methodologies and significant management judgment is required.
Cash and Cash Equivalents GATX considers all
highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or
less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Restricted cash Restricted cash represents
cash and cash equivalents that are restricted as to withdrawal
and usage. GATXs restricted cash primarily relates to
amounts maintained, as required by contract, for seven
wholly-owned bankruptcy remote, special-purpose corporations.
Operating Assets and Facilities Operating
assets and facilities are stated principally at cost. Assets
acquired under capital leases are included in operating assets
and the related obligations are recorded as liabilities.
Operating assets and facilities are depreciated over their
estimated useful lives or lease terms to estimated salvage
values using the straight-line method. During 2009, ASC
increased the estimated useful lives of certain vessels from
50 years to 65 years. The estimated useful lives of
depreciable assets are as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
Railcars
|
|
|
30 38 years
|
|
Locomotives

|
A review for impairment of long-lived assets, such as operating
assets and facilities, is performed whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of long-lived
assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be
held and used is evaluated by comparing the carrying amount of
the asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be
generated by the asset. If an asset is determined to be
impaired, the impairment loss recognized is the amount by which
the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets
to be disposed of are classified as held for sale and reported
at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs
to sell.
Investments in Affiliated Companies GATX has
investments in 20 to 50 percent-owned companies and joint
ventures and other investments in which GATX does not have
effective or voting control (collectively
affiliates). These affiliates are accounted for
using the equity method under which these companies are
initially recorded at
56
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
cost, including goodwill. The carrying amount of GATXs
investments in affiliated companies is affected by GATXs
share of the affiliates undistributed earnings and losses,
distributions of dividends and capital, and loan payments to or
from the affiliate. Loans to and from affiliates are reflected
as part of GATXs investment in the affiliate and interest
on these loans is included with GATXs proportional share
of the affiliates earnings. GATX reviews the carrying
amount of its investments in affiliates annually, or whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in
value may have occurred. If an investment is determined to be
impaired on an
other-than-temporary
basis, a loss equal to the difference between the fair value of
the investment and its carrying value is recorded in the period
of identification. See Note 6 for additional information.
Lease Classification GATX determines lease
classification at lease inception. After lease inception, if the
provisions of the lease are changed, other than by renewing the
lease or extending its term, in a manner that would have
resulted in a different classification of the lease had the
changed terms been in effect at the inception of the lease, the
revised agreement is considered a new lease for purposes of
determining lease classification. During 2009, upon the
restructuring of $22.9 million of direct finance leases
with a customer that declared bankruptcy, GATX reassessed the
classification of the leases based on the revised terms and
determined that the new leases should be classified as operating
leases. As a result, the $18.5 million fair value of the
assets was reclassified to operating assets and the
$4.4 million difference between the book value and fair
value of the assets was recorded as an impairment charge. See
Note 5 for additional information.
Finance Leases Finance leases are comprised
of direct finance leases and leveraged leases. Direct finance
leases consist of the gross lease payment receivable and the
estimated residual value of the equipment at the lease
termination date, net of unearned income. Lease payment
receivables represent the rent to be received over the remainder
of the lease term. Initial unearned income is the amount by
which the original sum of the lease receivable and the estimated
residual value exceeds the original cost of the underlying
equipment. Unearned income is amortized to lease income over the
lease term in a manner that produces a constant rate of return
on the net investment in the lease. Finance leases that are
financed principally with nonrecourse borrowings at lease
inception and that meet certain criteria are accounted for as
leveraged leases. Leveraged lease receivables are stated net of
the related nonrecourse debt. Initial unearned income for
leveraged leases represents the excess of anticipated cash flows
(including estimated residual values and net of the related debt
service) over the original investment in the lease. See
Note 5 for additional information.
Residual Values Residual values are a
component of GATXs investment in finance leases. Residual
values represent the estimate of the value of the asset at the
end of the finance lease contract. Residual values are initially
recorded based on appraisals and estimates. Realization of
residual values is dependent on GATXs ability to market
the assets under future market conditions. GATX reviews its
estimates of residual value annually or whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in value may
have occurred. Any
other-than-temporary
declines in value are recognized as impairments.
Inventory GATX has inventory that consists of
railcar and locomotive repair components and marine vessel spare
parts. All inventory balances are stated at lower of cost or
market. Railcar repair components are valued using the average
cost method. Vessel spare parts inventory is valued using the
first-in,
first-out method. Inventory is included in other assets on the
balance sheet.
Goodwill GATX recognizes goodwill when the
purchase price of an acquired business exceeds the fair value of
the acquired net assets and assigns the goodwill to the same
reporting unit as the net assets of the acquired businesses.
GATX determines its reporting units based on the composition of
its operating segments, taking into consideration whether the
operating segments consisted of more than one business and, if
so, whether the businesses operate in different economic
environments. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested annually
for impairment. The impairment test consists of comparing the
fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount,
including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit
exceeds its carrying amount, then the goodwill of the reporting
unit is
57
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
considered not impaired. If the carrying amount of the reporting
unit exceeds its fair value, an additional step is performed
that compares the implied fair value of the reporting
units goodwill (reporting unit fair value less carrying
value excluding goodwill) with the carrying amount of the
goodwill. An impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the
carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value.
Reporting unit fair values are estimated primarily using
discounted cash flow models. GATX performs its impairment test
annually in the fourth quarter or in interim periods if events
or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. See
Note 15 for additional information.
Allowance for Possible Losses The purpose of
the allowance is to provide an estimate of credit losses
inherent in reservable assets. Reservable assets are divided
into two categories: rent and other receivables, which represent
short-term trade billings, and finance lease receivables.
Reserves for rent and other receivables are based on historical
loss experience and judgments about the impact of present
economic conditions, collateral values, and the state of the
markets in which GATX operates. In addition, GATX may establish
specific reserves for known troubled accounts. Reserve estimates
for finance lease receivables are generally evaluated on a
customer specific basis, considering the same factors as rent
and other receivables as well as a regular assessment of each
customers specific credit situation. There were no
material changes in estimation methods or assumptions for the
allowance during 2009. GATX believes that the allowance is
adequate to cover losses inherent in its reservable assets as of
December 31, 2009. Since the allowance is based on
judgments and estimates, it is possible that actual losses
incurred will differ from the estimate.
Convertible Debt For convertible debt
instruments that may be settled in cash (including partial cash
settlement) upon conversion, the liability (debt) and equity
(conversion option) components must be accounted for separately
and in a manner that reflects the issuers nonconvertible
debt (unsecured debt) borrowing rate. At issuance, the equity
component is classified as additional capital, and the resulting
discount on the debt is amortized as interest expense over the
expected term of the convertible debt. Issuance costs relating
to convertible debt are allocated between debt and equity
issuance costs on the same basis as the debt and equity
components. Debt issuance costs are amortized as interest
expense over the expected term of the convertible debt and
equity issuance costs are immediately recognized as a reduction
of additional capital.
For conversions, GATX measures the fair value of the total
consideration it transfers in settlement of the notes and
allocates a portion (equal to the fair value of the liability
component at the conversion date) to the extinguishment of the
liability. The difference between the amount allocated and the
net carrying amount of the liability component is recognized as
a gain or loss. The remaining settlement consideration is
attributed to the reacquisition of the equity component and is
recognized as a reduction of additional capital. Accrued
interest as of the conversion date is recorded as an increase to
additional capital.
The conversion options embedded in GATXs convertible debt
issuances qualify for equity treatment, thus bifurcation and
separate accounting treatment of the options as embedded
derivatives is not required. All other features of GATXs
convertible notes, including conversion contingencies and
registration rights provisions, are either not derivatives
requiring bifurcation and separate accounting or are
derivatives, but were determined to have a zero value at the
date of issuance. GATX regularly reviews the value of these
other features and recognizes any changes in current earnings,
as applicable.
See Note 8 for additional information.
Income Taxes Provisions for federal, state
and foreign income taxes are calculated on reported income
before income taxes based on current tax law. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities, using enacted rates in effect for the year in which
the differences are expected to reverse. The cumulative effect
of any changes in tax rates from those previously used in
determining deferred tax assets and liabilities is reflected in
the provision for income taxes in the period of change.
Provisions for income taxes in any given period differ from
those currently payable or receivable because certain items of
income and expense are recognized in different time periods for
financial reporting purposes than they are for income tax
purposes. U.S. income taxes have not been provided on the
undistributed
58
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
earnings of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates that GATX
intends to permanently reinvest in these foreign operations. The
cumulative amount of such earnings was $382.7 million at
December 31, 2009.
Items deducted for tax purposes but for which a financial
statement impact has not been recorded due to the uncertainty of
the tax position are identified as uncertain tax positions.
GATXs liability for uncertain tax positions is reflected
in other liabilities on the balance sheet.
See Note 12 for additional information.
Derivatives GATX recognizes all derivative
instruments at fair value and classifies them on the balance
sheet as either other assets or other liabilities.
Classification of derivative activity in the statements of
income and cash flows is generally determined by the nature of
the hedged item. Gains and losses on derivatives that are not
accounted for as hedges are classified as other operating
expenses and the related cash flows are included in cash flows
from operating activities.
Instruments that meet specific accounting criteria are formally
designated as qualifying hedges at the inception of the
derivative contract. These criteria require that the derivative
is expected to be highly effective at offsetting changes in the
fair value or expected cash flows of the hedged exposure both at
the inception of the hedging relationship and on an ongoing
basis. GATX primarily uses derivatives, such as interest rate
swap agreements, Treasury rate locks, options and currency
forwards, to hedge its exposure to interest rate and foreign
currency exchange rate risk on existing and anticipated
transactions. For derivatives designated as fair value hedges,
changes in the fair value of both the derivative and the hedged
item are recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as
cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the change in the
fair value of the derivative is recorded as part of other
comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently recognized in
earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings and any
ineffective portion is immediately recognized in earnings.
Although GATX does not hold or issue derivative financial
instruments for purposes other than hedging, certain derivatives
may not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value
of these derivatives are recognized in earnings immediately. For
the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, gains
(losses) of $0.9 million, $1.0 million and
$(1.1) million, respectively, were recognized in earnings
for derivatives that did not qualify as accounting hedges. See
Note 9 for further information.
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-Retirement
Plans GATXs balance sheet reflects the
funded status of its pension and post-retirement plans. The
funded status of the plans is measured as the difference between
the fair value of the plan assets and the projected benefit
obligation. GATX recognized the aggregate overfunding of any
plans in other assets, the aggregate underfunding of any plans
in other liabilities and the corresponding adjustments to other
comprehensive income (loss), net of related taxes.
Foreign Currency The assets and liabilities
of GATXs operations having
non-U.S. dollar
functional currencies are translated at exchange rates in effect
at year end. Statements of income and cash flows are translated
monthly, using average exchange rates. Gains and losses
resulting from the translation of foreign currency financial
statements are deferred and recorded as a separate component of
other comprehensive income (loss). Gains (losses) resulting from
foreign currency transactions and from the remeasurement of
non-functional currency denominated assets and liabilities,
which are recorded net of related hedges in other expense during
the periods in which they occur, were $0.4 million,
$8.0 million and $(1.3) million for 2009, 2008, and
2007, respectively.
Environmental Liabilities Expenditures that
relate to current or future operations are expensed or
capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an
existing condition caused by past operations and which do not
contribute to current or future revenue generation are charged
to environmental reserves. Reserves are recorded to cover work
at identified sites when GATXs liability for environmental
cleanup is probable and a reasonable estimate of associated
costs can be made. Adjustments to initial estimates are recorded
as required. See Note 22 for additional information.
Revenue Recognition Gross income includes
rents on operating leases, accretion of income on direct finance
leases, interest on loans, marine operating revenue, fees, gains
on the sale of assets and share of affiliates earnings.
Operating lease income is recognized on a straight-line basis
over the term of the underlying leases.
59
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Finance lease income is recognized on the basis of the interest
method, which produces a constant yield over the term of the
lease. Marine operating revenue is recognized as shipping
services are performed and revenue is allocated among reporting
periods based on the relative transit time in each reporting
period for shipments in process at any month end. Asset
remarketing income includes gains and losses from the sale of
assets from GATXs portfolio as well as residual sharing
fees from the sale of managed assets. Asset remarketing income
is recognized upon completion of the sale of assets. Other
income is primarily comprised of repair revenue, scrapping gains
and fee income. Fee income, including management fees received
from joint ventures, is recognized as services are performed.
Interest expense, net Interest expense
represents interest accrued on indebtedness and amortization of
debt issue costs and debt discounts. Debt issuance costs are
deferred and amortized over the applicable term of the related
debt. Interest expense is reported net of interest income on
bank deposits, which was $0.5 million, $3.1 million
and $10.8 million for 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Operating Lease Expense GATX leases certain
railcars under sale-leaseback arrangements as well as other
assets and facilities closely associated with its revenue
generating operations (e.g. maintenance facilities and
equipment). These leases are classified as operating leases and
the associated lease expense is recorded on a straight-line
basis. Gains as well as financing costs associated with
sale-leasebacks are deferred and amortized as a component of
operating lease expense over the related leaseback term. GATX
also leases certain office facilities and related administrative
assets. These leases are also classified as operating leases and
the associated expense is recorded in selling, general, and
administrative expense. Total operating lease expense was
$141.7 million, $150.9 million and
$162.5 million, in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. See
Note 5 for additional information.
Lease Origination Costs Initial direct costs
of leases are deferred and amortized over the lease term, either
as an adjustment to the yield for direct finance leases or on a
straight-line basis for operating leases.
Maintenance and Repair Costs Maintenance and
repair costs are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in
connection with planned major maintenance activities that
improve or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized
and depreciated over their estimated useful life. Required
regulatory survey costs for ASCs vessels are capitalized
and depreciated over the applicable survey period, generally
five years.
Marine Operating and Maintenance Expenses
Marine operating expenses are categorized as either direct or
indirect. Direct expenses, consisting primarily of crewing
costs, fuel, tugs, vessel supplies, running repairs and
insurance costs are recognized as incurred. Indirect expenses
consist of repairs and maintenance and depreciation. Indirect
expenses incurred prior to the beginning of the sailing season
are deferred and amortized ratably over the anticipated sailing
season, generally April 1 December 31. Indirect
expenses incurred during the sailing season are recognized as
incurred.
Share-Based Compensation GATX measures
share-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair
value of an award and recognizes the expense over the requisite
service period of each award. Compensation expense is only
recognized for awards that vest, thus an estimate of forfeitures
is made at the time of grant and that estimate is reevaluated at
least annually, with a final adjustment recorded upon vesting.
See Note 11 for additional information.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
Variable Interest Entities In June 2009, the
FASB issued accounting guidance that revises the accounting for
and disclosures about VIEs. The guidance requires an entity to
perform a qualitative analysis each reporting period to
determine whether a VIE must be consolidated and requires
disclosures related to significant judgments and assumptions
considered in the analysis, the nature of risks associated with
an entitys involvement with a VIE, and how that
involvement affects the entitys financial position,
results of operations and cash flows. The guidance is effective
for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2009, and GATX is currently evaluating the
effect, if any, that the application of this guidance will have
on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
60
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Fair Value Measurements In January 2010, the
FASB issued accounting guidance that amends the disclosure
requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance requires
enhanced disclosures regarding the amounts of significant
transfers among the three levels of the fair value hierarchy and
the reasons for those transfers and is effective for fiscal
years and interim periods beginning after December 15,
2009. The application of this guidance will have no impact on
GATXs financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

Investments in affiliated companies represent investments in,
and loans to and from, domestic and foreign companies and joint
ventures that are in businesses similar to those of GATX, such
as lease financing and related services for customers operating
rail, marine and industrial equipment assets, as well as other
business activities, including ventures that provide asset
residual value guarantees in both domestic and foreign markets.
At December 31, 2009 and 2008, these investments included
loans to affiliated companies of $7.8 million and
$7.7 million, respectively, and loans from affiliated
companies of $6.3 million and $63.0 million,
respectively. In 2010, GATX will make shareholder loan
repayments of $6.3 million. Distributions received from
affiliates were $36.0 million, $61.6 million and

NOTE 7.
|
Variable
Interest Entities
|
GATX determines whether an entity is a VIE based on the
sufficiency of the entitys equity and the correlation
between economic and voting rights of the entitys
investors. The determination of whether GATX is the primary
beneficiary of a VIE is based on an analysis of the variable
interests held by GATX and the level to which those variable
interests will absorb expected losses or receive the expected
residual returns in the VIE. These determinations are both
qualitative and quantitative in nature and require certain
judgments and assumptions about the VIEs forecasted
financial performance and the volatility inherent in those
forecasted results.
GATXs investments in VIEs primarily consist of leveraged
leases and certain investments in affiliates that were acquired
or entered into between 1994 and 2009. These VIEs are involved
in railcar and equipment leasing activities and are typically
financed through a mix of equity investments, loans from equity
investors and third-party lending arrangements. GATX determined
that it is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because it
does not absorb the majority of expected losses or receive the
majority of expected residual returns associated with them. As a
result, GATX does not consolidate these VIEs. GATX evaluates new
investments for VIE determination and regularly reviews all
existing entities in connection with any reconsideration events
that may result in an entity becoming a VIE or in GATX becoming
the primary beneficiary of an existing VIE.
At December 31, 2009, the carrying amount and maximum
exposure to loss with respect to GATXs VIEs was as follows:

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
At December 31, 2009, $697.5 million of GATXs
assets were pledged as collateral for notes or other obligations.
Shelf
Registration Statement
GATX maintains an effective shelf registration statement on file
with the SEC that enables it to issue public debt securities and
pass-through certificates. The registration statement expires in
August 2010.
Credit
Lines and Facilities
GATX has a $550 million unsecured revolving credit facility
that matures in May 2012. At December 31, 2009,
availability under this facility was $506.9 million, with
$30.5 million of commercial paper outstanding and
$12.6 million of letters of credit issued, both backed by
the facility. Annual commitment fees for the revolving credit
facility are based on a percentage of the commitment and were
$0.4 million, $0.4 million and $0.5 million for
2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. GATX also has revolving lines
of credit totaling $67.3 million in Europe. At
December 31, 2009, availability under these lines of credit
was $28.6 million. At the end of the third quarter of 2009,
GATX terminated a $100 million,
364-day,
unsecured revolving credit facility.
Restrictive
Covenants
The $550 million revolving credit facility contains various
restrictive covenants, including requirements to maintain a
fixed charge coverage ratio and an asset coverage test.
GATXs ratio of earnings to fixed charges, as defined in
this facility, was 1.5 for the period ended December 31,
2009, in excess of the minimum covenant ratio of 1.2. At
December 31, 2009, GATX was in compliance with all
covenants and conditions of the $550 million facility.
Certain of GATXs bank term loans have the same financial
covenants as the $550 million facility.
The indentures for GATXs public debt contain limitation on
liens provisions that limit the amount of secured indebtedness
that GATX may incur, subject to several exceptions, including
those permitting an unlimited amount of purchase money
indebtedness and nonrecourse indebtedness. In addition to the
previously specified exceptions, GATX would be able to incur
liens securing a maximum of $823.7 million of additional
indebtedness as of December 31, 2009, based on the most
restrictive limitation on liens provision. At December 31,
2009, GATX was in compliance with all covenants and conditions
of the indentures.
The loan agreements for certain of GATXs wholly-owned
European subsidiaries (collectively, GRE) also
contain restrictive covenants, including leverage and cash flow
covenants specific to those subsidiaries, restrictions on making
loans and limitations on the ability of these subsidiaries to
repay loans to certain related parties (including GATX) and to
pay dividends to GATX. The covenants relating to loans and
dividends effectively limit the ability of GRE to transfer funds
to GATX. At December 31, 2009, the maximum amount that GRE
could transfer to GATX without violating its covenants was
$24.8 million, implying that $404.1 million of
subsidiary net assets were restricted. Restricted net assets are
defined as equity less 50% of free cash flow. At
December 31, 2009, GRE was in compliance with all covenants
and conditions of these loan agreements.
Another subsidiarys financing, guaranteed by GATX,
contains various restrictive covenants, including requirements
for GATX to maintain a defined net worth and a fixed charge
coverage ratio. This fixed charge coverage ratio covenant is
less restrictive than that contained in the revolving credit
facility.
GATX does not anticipate any covenant violations nor does it
anticipate that any of these covenants will restrict its
operations or its ability to procure additional financing.
Convertible
Securities
2002 Convertible Notes In February 2002, GATX
issued $175.0 million, 7.5% senior unsecured
convertible notes (the 2002 Notes), of which a
balance of $124.3 million was outstanding as of
December 31, 2006. The notes matured in February 2007.

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
2003 Convertible Notes In August 2003, GATX
issued $125.0 million, 5.0% senior unsecured notes,
due in August 2023, which are contingently convertible into GATX
common stock (the 2003 Notes). GATX has the right,
at any time, to call the notes at 100% of the principal amount
plus accrued and unpaid interest. If GATX provides notice of
redemption, the holders of the notes may elect to exercise their
conversion privilege. Upon conversion, GATX may elect, at its
option, to deliver cash, shares of GATX common stock or any
combination thereof. A summary of the various terms and
contingencies contained in the 2003 Notes follows.
Holders of the 2003 Notes have the right to require all or a
portion of the notes to be purchased at a price equal to 100% of
the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid
interest in August 2013 and August 2018. Any required purchases
may be paid in cash or shares of GATX common stock or any
combination thereof, at GATXs option.
The 2003 Notes are convertible into GATX common stock upon the
resolution of any of five contingencies: (1) during any
applicable conversion period in which the trading price of GATX
common stock is greater than or equal to 120% of the conversion
price, (2) upon specified negative credit rating agency
actions, (3) if GATX calls the notes for redemption,
(4) if the trading price of the notes is less than 95% of
the conversion value (subject to certain conditions),
(5) upon specified corporate events such as certain
distributions of stock rights or assets or in the event of a
merger or consolidation. Upon conversion, GATX may elect, at its
option, to deliver cash, shares of GATX common stock or any
combination thereof.
The 2003 Notes carry a contingent interest provision such that
beginning in August 2008, for any measurement period, if the
average trading price of the 2003 Notes equals 120% or more of
the principal amount of the notes, for the succeeding six month
interest period, GATX may be required to pay additional
interest. The amount of additional interest is equal to 0.25% of
the trading price of $1,000 principal amount of the notes. GATX
may avoid paying this contingent interest by calling the notes
prior to the record date for any contingent interest period.
GATX was impacted by this provision in 2008; however, additional
interest costs incurred were immaterial.

Maturities and Conversions of Convertible
Notes During 2008, holders of the 2003 Notes
converted $64.8 million of notes, of which
$0.7 million was settled with cash and $64.1 million
was settled with shares. A total of 2.6 million common
shares were issued as a result. During 2007, the outstanding
balance of the 2002 Notes was settled with a cash payment of
$124.3 million for the principal balance and the issuance
of 1.0 million shares of GATX common stock for the
intrinsic value. Additionally in 2007, certain of the 2003 Notes
were converted, resulting in a cash payment of
$18.2 million for the principal balance and
0.4 million shares issued for the intrinsic value. In 2008,
accrued interest of $1.0 million ($0.7 million
after-tax) was forfeited upon conversion and

Available for sale equity securities are valued based on quoted
prices in an active exchange market. Warrants and derivative
contracts are valued using a pricing model with inputs (such as
yield curves and credit spreads) that are observable in the
market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by
observable market data.
In 2009, GATX performed nonrecurring fair value measurements for
$19.0 million (carrying value of $23.8 million) of
certain railcars and other industrial equipment and recognized
impairment losses of $4.8 million, which were included in
other expense. The fair values were determined using discounted
cash flow methodologies and third-party appraisal data, as
applicable. These Level 3 measurements were performed in
connection with the reclassification of certain finance leases
as operating leases and the remeasurement of certain assets held
for sale.
Derivative
instruments
Fair Value Hedges GATX uses interest rate
swaps to convert fixed rate debt to floating rate debt and to
manage the fixed to floating rate mix of its debt obligations.
For fair value hedges, changes in fair value of both the
69
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
derivative and the hedged item are recognized in earnings as
interest expense. As of December 31, 2009, GATX had three
instruments outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of
$385.0 million and maturities ranging from
2010-2015.
Cash Flow Hedges GATX uses interest rate
swaps to convert floating rate debt to fixed rate debt and to
manage the fixed to floating rate mix of its debt obligations.
GATX also uses interest rate swaps and Treasury rate locks to
hedge its exposure to interest rate risk on existing and
anticipated transactions. As of December 31, 2009, GATX had
15 instruments outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of
$243.5 million and maturities ranging from
2010-2015.
Within the next 12 months, GATX expects to reclassify
$6.4 million ($4.0 million after-tax) of net losses on
cash flow hedges from other comprehensive income (loss) to
earnings. Amounts are reclassified when interest and operating
expense related to the hedged risks affect earnings. For the
years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, amounts
recognized in earnings for hedge ineffectiveness were immaterial.
Certain of GATXs derivative instruments contain credit
risk provisions that could require GATX to make immediate
payment on derivative instruments in net liability positions in
the event that GATX defaulted on a certain portion of its
outstanding debt obligations. The aggregate fair value of all
derivative instruments with credit risk related contingent
features that are in a liability position as of
December 31, 2009, was $4.2 million. GATX is not
required to post any collateral on its derivative instruments
and does not expect the credit risk provisions to be triggered.
Additionally, in the event that a counterparty fails to meet the
terms of the interest rate swap agreement or a foreign exchange
contract, GATXs exposure is limited to the fair value of
the swap if in GATXs favor. GATX manages the credit risk
of counterparties by transacting only with institutions that the
Company considers financially sound and by avoiding
concentrations of risk with a single counterparty. GATX
considers the risk of non-performance by a counterparty to be
remote.

Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted
cash, money market funds, rent and other receivables, accounts
payable, commercial paper and bank credit facilities approximate
fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. The
fair values of investment funds are based on the best
information available and may include quoted investment fund
values. The fair values of fixed and floating rate debt,
excluding convertible notes, were estimated based on discounted
cash flow analyses using interest rates currently offered for
loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.
Convertible notes were valued using third-party quotes.

|
Pension
and Other Post-Retirement Benefits
|
GATX maintains both funded and unfunded noncontributory defined
benefit pension plans covering its domestic employees and the
employees of certain of its subsidiaries. GATX also has a funded
noncontributory defined benefit pension plan related to a closed
subsidiary in the United Kingdom (U.K.). The U.K.
pension plan no longer has any active members and is closed to
new entrants. Benefits payable under the pension plans are based
on years of service
and/or final
average salary. The funding policy for the pension plans is
based on actuarially determined cost methods allowable under IRS
regulations and statutory regulations in the U.K.
In addition to the pension plans, GATX has other post-retirement
plans providing health care, life insurance and other benefits
for certain retired domestic employees who meet established
criteria. Most domestic employees are eligible for health care
and life insurance benefits if they retire from GATX with
immediate benefits under the GATX pension plan. The other
post-retirement plans are either contributory or
noncontributory, depending on various factors.
GATX uses a December 31, 2009, measurement date for all of
its plans. The following tables set forth pension obligations
and plan assets and other post-retirement obligations as of
December 31 (in millions):

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
GATX amortizes the unrecognized prior service credit and the
unrecognized net transition obligation using a straight-line
method over the average remaining service period of employees
expected to receive benefits under the plan. The unrecognized
net actuarial loss (gain), subject to certain averaging
conventions, is amortized over the average remaining service
period of active employees. As of December 31, 2009, GATX
expects within the next twelve months to recognize the following
amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive loss as
components of net periodic (benefit) cost: $6.7 million of
the defined benefit pension plans net actuarial loss,
$(1.0) million of the defined benefit plans prior
service credit, $0.1 million of the other post-retirement
benefit plans net actuarial loss and $(0.1) million
of the other post-retirement benefit plans prior service
credit.
GATX used the following assumptions to measure the benefit
obligation, compute the expected long-term return on assets and
to measure the periodic cost for GATXs defined benefit
pension plans and other post-retirement benefit plans for the
years ended December 31:

The discount rate is used by GATX to calculate the present value
of expected future pension and post-retirement cash flows as of
the measurement date. The discount rate is based on yields for
high-quality, long-term bonds, with durations similar to that of
the projected benefit obligation. The expected return on plan
assets is based on current and expected asset allocations, as
well as historical and expected returns on various categories of
plan

current market conditions to ensure its expected return
assumption on plan assets is reasonable and appropriate.

All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or
less when purchased are considered cash and cash equivalents.
Common stocks are valued at the last reported price on the last
business day of the plan year. Common stock and fixed income
funds are valued based on the market value of the underlying
securities, which are traded on an active exchange market. Real
estate investments are valued based on the market value of the
underlying real estate, which is determined by independent
appraisal.

The primary investing objective of the pension plans is to
represent the exclusive interests of plan participants for the
purpose of providing benefits to participants and their
beneficiaries. To achieve this goal, GATXs philosophy is
to invest in a diversified portfolio of equities, debt and real
estate investments to maximize return and to keep risk at a
reasonable level over a long-term investment horizon. Equity
investments are diversified across U.S. and
non-U.S. stocks
as well as growth, value and small to large capitalizations.
Debt securities are predominately invested in long-term,
investment-grade corporate bonds. Real estate investments
include investments in funds that are diversified by location
and property type.
On a timely basis, but not less than twice a year, GATX formally
reviews pension plan investments to ensure adherence to
investment guidelines and the Companys stated investment
approach. This review also evaluates reasonableness of
investment decisions and risk positions. The performance of
investments is compared to indices and peers to determine if
performance has been acceptable.
GATX expects to contribute approximately $16.7 million to
its pension plans (domestic and foreign) and approximately
$4.7 million to its other post-retirement benefit plans in
2010. Additional contributions to the domestic funded pension
plans will be dependent on several factors including investment
returns on plan assets and actuarial experience.

In addition to its defined benefit plans, GATX maintains two
401(k) retirement plans that are available to substantially all
salaried and certain other employee groups. GATX may contribute
to the plans as specified by their respective terms, and as
determined by the Board of Directors. Contributions to such
plans were $1.5 million, $1.5 million, and
$1.5 million for 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively.
|
|
NOTE 11.
|
Share-Based
Compensation
|
GATX provides equity awards to its employees under the GATX
Corporation 2004 Equity Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended
(the 2004 Plan). As of December 31, 2009,
3.5 million shares of common stock were authorized under
the 2004 Plan and 1.6 million shares were available for
future issuance. The 2004 Plan provides for the granting of
nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights
(SARs), restricted stock and phantom stock awards.
GATX recognizes compensation expense for these awards in
selling, general and administrative expenses over the service
period of each award. For 2009, 2008 and 2007, share-based
compensation expense was $6.1 million, $9.4 million
and $9.6 million, respectively, and related tax benefits
were $2.3 million, $3.5 million, $3.7 million,
respectively. These awards are more fully described below.
Stock
Option/SAR Awards
Stock options/SARs provide for the purchase of shares of common
stock and may be granted for periods not longer than seven years
from the date of grant (ten years for options granted prior to
2004). SARs entitle the holder to receive the difference between
the market price of GATXs common stock at the time of
exercise and the exercise price, either in shares of common
stock, cash or a combination thereof, at GATXs discretion.
Options entitle the holder to purchase shares of GATX common
stock at a specified exercise price. The exercise price for both
options and SARs is equal to the average of the high and low
trading prices of GATX common stock on the date of grant.
Options/SARs vest and become exercisable commencing on a date no
earlier than one year from the date of grant. Compensation
expense is recognized over the applicable vesting period. Since
2006, only SARs have been awarded.
76
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
The assumptions GATX used in valuing SAR awards were:
|
|
|
|
|
Valuation and Vesting Period GATX values SARs
using the Black-Scholes model. The Black-Scholes model is one of
the most frequently referenced models used to value options and
was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded
options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferable. SAR grants vest in
1/3
increments over three years.
|
|
|
|
Expected Life The expected life of SARs
represents the period of time they are expected to be
outstanding. GATX estimates expected life based on historical
exercise patterns and post-vesting terminations.
|
|
|
|
Expected Volatility GATX estimates the
expected volatility of SARs at the date of grant based on the
historical volatility of its stock price. Historical
volatilities are calculated based on the historical prices of
GATXs stock price over a period equal to the expected life
of the SARs.
|
|
|
|
Risk-Free Interest Rate The risk-free
interest rate is the implied yield in effect at the time of
grant based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a
remaining term equivalent to the expected life of the SARs.
|
|
|
|
Dividends GATXs options/SARs are
dividend participating, therefore the value of each award also
reflects the present value of the dividends expected to be paid
during the estimated life of the SAR. The inputs to the present
value calculation are the dividend rate at the time of grant,
the risk-free interest rate and the expected life of the SAR.
Dividends accrue on all options/SARs granted under the 2004 Plan
and are paid upon vesting. Dividends continue to be paid until
the options/SARs are exercised, cancelled or expire.

awards and the weighted average estimated fair value were as

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
The total intrinsic value of options/SARs exercised during the
years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, was
$2.5 million and $12.1 million, respectively. As of
December 31, 2009, there was $3.3 million of
unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested SARs,
which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average
period of 1.7 years.
Restricted
Stock and Performance Share Awards
Restricted stock may be granted to key employees, entitling them
to receive a specified number of restricted shares of common
stock. Restricted shares of common stock carry all dividend and
voting rights, but are not transferable prior to the expiration
of a specified restriction period, generally three years, as
determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors (Compensation Committee). Dividends accrue
on all restricted shares and are paid upon vesting. Compensation
expense is recognized for these awards over the applicable
restriction period.
Performance shares may be granted to key employees to focus
attention on the achievement of certain strategic objectives.
The shares are converted to common stock based on the
achievement of predetermined performance goals at the end of a
specified performance period as determined by the Compensation
Committee. Performance shares do not carry voting rights.
Dividends accrue on all performance shares and are paid upon
vesting. Performance shares are valued based on the closing
price for GATXs stock on the grant date. An estimate of
the number of shares expected to vest as a result of actual
performance against the performance criteria is made at the time
of grant to determine total compensation expense to be
recognized. The estimate is reevaluated annually and total
compensation expense is adjusted for any changes in the
estimate, with a cumulative catch up adjustment (i.e., the
cumulative effect of applying the change in estimate
retrospectively) recognized in the period of change.
Compensation expense is recognized for these awards over the
applicable vesting period, generally three years.
GATX values its restricted stock and performance share awards
based on the closing price of its stock on the grant date. As of
December 31, 2009, there was $2.2 million of
unrecognized compensation expense related to these awards, which
is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
1.8 years.

$3.2 million, respectively.
Phantom
Stock Awards
Phantom stock is granted to non-employee directors as a
component of their compensation for service on GATXs
Board. In accordance with the terms of the phantom stock awards,
each director is credited with a quantity of units that equate
to, but are not, common shares in the Company. Phantom stock
awards are dividend participating with all dividends reinvested
in additional phantom shares at the average of the high and low
trading prices of GATX stock on the dividend payment date.
Settlement of whole units of phantom stock will be made in
shares of common stock and fractional units will be paid in cash
at the expiration of each directors service on the Board
and/or in
accordance with his or her deferral election. In 2009, GATX
granted 36,963 units of phantom stock and
136,210 units were outstanding as of December 31, 2009.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts
used for income tax purposes.

taxes of $10.4 million paid in 2006 and 2007. Additionally,
upon filing of the 2008 federal income tax return, GATX elected
a slower federal tax depreciation method, which eliminated the
remainder of the federal net operating loss balance.
At December 31, 2009, GATX had foreign tax credits of
$19.8 million that are scheduled to expire beginning in
2011. A $19.8 million valuation allowance has been recorded
as the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will
be unable to utilize these credits. At December 31, 2009,
GATX had state net operating losses of $40.5 million that
are scheduled to expire at various times beginning in 2012. A
$21.7 million valuation allowance has been recorded as the
Company believes it is more likely than not that it will be
unable to utilize all of these losses. Utilization of future tax
credits and net operating loss benefits will be dependent on a
number of variables, including overall taxable income, foreign
source income attributes and state apportionment factors.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross
liability for unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in
millions):

(a) |
|
$6.8 million, net of federal taxes |
Subject to the completion of certain audits or the expiration of
the applicable statute of limitations, the Company believes it
is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months,
unrecognized federal tax benefits of $3.1 million, state
tax benefits of $0.2 million, and foreign tax benefits of
$0.8 million may be recognized. The Company recognizes
accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax
benefits as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2009,
the gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits included
$5.4 million related to interest. No amounts have been
accrued for penalties. To the extent interest is not assessed or
otherwise reduced with respect to uncertain tax positions, any
required adjustment will be recorded as a reduction of income
tax expense.
If fully recognized, GATXs gross liability for
unrecognized tax benefits of $54.8 million would decrease
income tax expense by $36.7 million ($34.6 million net
of federal tax benefits).
GATX files numerous consolidated and separate income tax returns
in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, as well as various state
and foreign jurisdictions. During 2008, with the exception of
one disputed issue, the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) completed an examination of the Companys
U.S. consolidated income tax returns for the years 1998
through 2005. In 2009, the Company agreed to a settlement on the
disputed issue and is awaiting final approval from the IRS. The
settlement of this matter in accordance with the agreement would
not have a material impact on the Companys financial
position or results of operations. All examinations with respect
to GATXs U.S. tax returns for years prior to 1998
have been closed. The Company is currently being audited by the
IRS for years 2006 2008. The Company and its
subsidiaries are also undergoing audits in various state and
foreign jurisdictions.

The 2009 effective income tax rate was impacted by recognized
foreign tax credits. The adjustment for foreign income tax rates
reflects the impact of lower taxed earnings from foreign
subsidiaries and affiliates. Deferred tax adjustments associated
with enacted changes in foreign rates are identified separately.
The 2008 effective income tax rate was impacted by a
$6.8 million state tax benefit (net of federal taxes)
recognized in connection with a position taken in a prior period
upon expiration of the statute of limitations.
State income taxes are provided on domestic pre-tax income or
loss. The effect of state income tax on the overall income tax
rate is impacted by the amount of domestic income subject to
state taxes relative to total worldwide income.

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Tax rate decreases on deferred taxes recorded in 2007 is the
result of changes in foreign income tax rates enacted in those
years.

Concentrations
and Commitments
|
Concentrations
Concentration of Revenues GATXs
revenues are derived from a wide range of industries and
companies. Approximately 25% of total revenues are generated
from customers in each of the chemical and petroleum industries,
14% are generated from customers in the food/agriculture
industry and 13% from the transportation industry. GATXs
foreign identifiable revenues were primarily generated in the
countries of Canada, Germany, Poland, Mexico and Austria. The
Company did not derive revenues in excess of 10% of consolidated
revenues from any one foreign country for any of the years ended
December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.
Concentration of Credit Risk Under its lease
agreements with lessees, GATX retains legal ownership of the
asset except where such assets have been financed by
sale-leasebacks. GATX performs credit evaluations prior to
approval of a lease contract. Subsequently, the creditworthiness
of the customer and the value of the collateral are monitored on
an ongoing basis. GATX maintains an allowance for possible
losses to provide for credit losses inherent in its reservable
assets portfolio. The Company did not derive revenues in excess
of 10% of consolidated revenues from any one customer for any of
the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.
Concentration of Labor Force 49% of GATX
employees were covered by union contracts at December 31,
2009. The hourly employees at Rails U.S. service
centers belong to the United Steelworkers of America
(USWA). Employees at three of Rails Canadian
service centers belong to the Communication, Energy and
Paperworkers Union of Canada. The shipboard personnel at ASC
belong to the American Maritime Officers, the Seafarers
International Union or the USWA, as the case may be.

Commercial Commitments In connection with
certain investments or transactions, GATX has entered into
various commercial commitments, such as guarantees and standby
letters of credit, which could potentially require performance
in the event of demands by third parties. Similar to GATXs
balance sheet investments, these guarantees expose GATX to
credit, market and equipment risk; accordingly, GATX evaluates
its commitments and other contingent obligations using
techniques similar to those used to evaluate funded transactions.

At December 31, 2009, the maximum potential amount of
guarantees under which GATX could be required to perform was
$224.6 million. The related carrying value of the
guarantees on the balance sheet was a liability of
$8.1 million. The expirations of these guarantees range
from 2010 to 2017. GATX is not aware of any event that would
require it to satisfy these guarantees.
Affiliate guarantees generally involve guaranteeing repayment of
the financing utilized to acquire or lease in assets and are in
lieu of making direct equity investments in the affiliate. GATX
is not aware of any event or default which would require it to
satisfy these guarantees and expects the affiliates to generate
sufficient cash flow to satisfy their lease and loan obligations.
Asset residual value guarantees represent GATXs commitment
to third parties that an asset or group of assets will be worth
a specified amount at the end of a lease term. GATX earns an
initial fee for providing these asset value guarantees, which is
amortized into income over the guarantee period. Upon
disposition of the assets, GATX receives a share of any proceeds
in excess of the amount guaranteed and such residual sharing
gains are recorded in asset remarketing income. If at the end of
the lease term, the net realizable value of the asset is less
than the guaranteed amount, any liability resulting from
GATXs performance pursuant to the residual value guarantee
will be reduced by the value realized from disposition of the
asset. Asset residual value guarantees include those related to
assets of affiliated companies.
Lease payment guarantees represent GATXs guarantees to
financial institutions of finance and operating lease payments
to unrelated parties in exchange for a fee. Any liability
resulting from GATXs performance pursuant to the lease
payment guarantees will be reduced by the value realized from
the underlying asset or group of assets.
Other consists of GATXs potential reimbursement obligation
to Airbus S.A.S. (Airbus) for amounts Airbus may be
required to pay to GATX Flightlease Aircraft Ltd., a joint
venture partially owned by GATX (GFAC), in
connection with an aircraft purchase contract entered into by
GFAC and Airbus in 2001. GATXs potential reimbursement
obligation is applicable only under certain specified conditions
and is capped at approximately $77.8 million. No liability
has been recorded with respect to this potential reimbursement
as GATX believes that the likelihood of any required payment is
remote. The aircraft purchase contract, and other agreements
relating thereto, have been the subject of various litigation
proceedings that are described in Note 22.
GATX and its subsidiaries are also parties to standing letters
of credit and bonds primarily related to workers
compensation and general liability insurance coverages. No
material claims have been made against these obligations. At
December 31, 2009, GATX does not expect any material losses
to result from these off balance sheet instruments since
performance is not anticipated to be required.

Earnings
per Share
|
On January 23, 2008, the Companys Board of Directors
authorized a $200 million share repurchase program. In
2009, 2.8 million shares were acquired and in 2008,
2.1 million shares were acquired.

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL

Basic earnings per share were computed by dividing net income
available to common shareholders by the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding during each year. Shares
issued or reacquired during the year, if applicable, were
weighted for the portion of the year that they were outstanding.
Diluted earnings per share give effect to potentially dilutive
securities, including convertible preferred stock, employee
stock options/SARs, restricted stock and convertible debt.

Goodwill was $97.5 million and $95.7 million as of
December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In the fourth
quarter of 2009 and 2008, GATX performed a review for impairment
of goodwill, concluding that goodwill was not impaired. For 2009
and 2008, changes in the carrying amount of GATXs
goodwill, all of which pertains to Rail, were the result of
changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

As of December 31, 2009, allowances for trade receivables
were $2.5 million or 3.6% of rent and other receivables
compared to $3.9 million or 4.7% at December 31, 2008.
Specific allowances for finance leases were $10.9 million
at December 31, 2009, compared to $14.7 million at
December 31, 2008. The decrease in specific allowances in
2009 was primarily due to the reversal of a $6.9 million
provision on certain direct finance leases related to a Rail
customer that declared bankruptcy. In 2009, upon restructuring
of the lease terms in bankruptcy court, the classification of
the lease changed to an operating lease and all finance lease
balances were reversed, including the provision. As a result of
the lease reclassification, the operating lease assets were
recorded at fair value and an impairment charge of
$4.4 million was recorded, representing the difference
between fair value and carrying value. The reversal of the
provision in 2009 was partially offset by required provisions
for certain other customers.

Shareholders
Equity
|
On January 23, 2008, the Companys Board of Directors
authorized a $200 million common stock repurchase program.
In 2009, 2.8 million shares were acquired for
$55.1 million. In 2008, 2.1 million shares were
acquired for $76.5 million. The repurchased shares were
recorded as treasury stock under the cost method. In 2007, under
a separate program, 6.3 million shares were acquired for
$300.2 million.
In 2008, holders of GATXs 2003 Notes converted
$64.8 million of notes, of which $0.7 million was
settled in cash and $64.1 million was settled with shares.
A total of 2.6 million common shares were issued as a
result. No 2003 Notes were converted during 2009. On
January 29, 2010, GATX called all of the outstanding 2003
Notes for redemption, which may affect the amount of conversions
in 2010. See Note 8 for additional information.
In accordance with GATXs certificate of incorporation,
120 million shares of common stock are authorized, at a par
value of $0.625 per share. As of December 31, 2009,
65.2 million shares were issued and 46.1 million
shares were outstanding.
A total of 11.0 million shares of common stock were
reserved at December 31, 2009, for the following:

The reserve for incentive compensation programs consists of
shares authorized and available for future issuance under the
GATX Corporation 2004 Equity Incentive Compensation Plan. See
Note 11 for additional information.
GATXs certificate of incorporation also authorizes five
million shares of preferred stock at a par value of $1.00 per
share. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, 17,046 and
17,428 shares of preferred stock were outstanding,
respectively. Shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding
consist of Series A and B $2.50 cumulative convertible
preferred stock, which entitle holders to a cumulative annual
cash dividend of $2.50 per share. Each share is convertible at
the option of the holder at any time into five shares of common
stock. Each share of such
86
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
preferred stock may be called for redemption by GATX at any time
at $63.00 per share. In the event of GATXs liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, the holders of such preferred stock
will be entitled to receive $60.00 per share plus accrued and
unpaid dividends to the date of payment. At December 31,
2009 and 2008, the aggregated liquidation preference of both
series of preferred stock was $1.0 million.
Holders of both preferred and common stock are entitled to one
vote for each share held. Except in certain instances, all such
classes of stock vote together as a single class.

Foreign
Operations
|
GATX has a number of investments in subsidiaries and affiliated
companies that are located in, or derive revenues from, various
foreign countries. GATXs foreign identifiable assets
include investments in affiliated companies as well as railcar
operations in Canada, Poland, Austria and Germany, and foreign
leases, loans and other investments. Foreign entities contribute
significantly to GATXs share of affiliates earnings.
Revenues and identifiable assets are determined to be foreign or
domestic based upon location of the customer; classification of
affiliates earnings as foreign or domestic is made based
on the office location of the affiliate.
The Company did not derive revenues in excess of 10% of
consolidated revenues from continuing operations from any one
foreign country for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008
and 2007. At December 31, 2009, 12% of the Companys
identifiable assets were in Canada. At December 31, 2008,
and 2007, 11% of the Companys identifiable assets were in
Germany.

NOTE 22.

Legal
Proceedings and Other Contingencies
|
Legal Various legal actions, claims,
assessments and other contingencies arising in the ordinary
course of business are pending against GATX and certain of its
subsidiaries. These matters are subject to many uncertainties,
and it is possible that some of these matters could ultimately
be decided, resolved, or settled adversely.
Flightlease
Litigation
In 1999, GATX Third Aircraft Corporation (Third
Aircraft), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GATX
Financial Corporation (GFC, which merged into GATX
in 2007), entered into a joint venture agreement with
Flightlease Holdings (Guernsey) Ltd. (FHG), an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the SAirGroup, and formed a
joint venture entity, GATX Flightlease Aircraft Ltd.
(GFAC) to purchase a number of aircraft. In
September 1999, GFAC entered into an agreement (the GFAC
Agreement) with Airbus S.A.S. (Airbus) and by
October 1, 2001, GFAC had ordered a total of 41 aircraft
(the GFAC Aircraft) from Airbus and had made
aggregate unutilized pre-delivery payments (PDPs) to
Airbus of approximately $227.6 million. Subsequently, on
October 4, 2001, the joint venture partners entered into an
agreement (the Split Agreement) pursuant to which
the parties agreed (i) to divide responsibility for the
GFAC Aircraft, (ii) to allocate the PDPs between them in
the amounts of approximately $77.8 million to Third
Aircraft and approximately $149.8 million to FHG and
(iii) that each would enter into separate agreements with
Airbus to purchase its allocated aircraft or equivalent aircraft
(such aircraft allocated to Third Aircraft being the GATX
Allocated Aircraft). Subsequently, GFC and an affiliate of
Airbus entered into a new purchase agreement for the GATX
Allocated Aircraft (the GATX Agreement) and GFC
received a credit of $77.8 million of the PDPs towards the
acquisition of the aircraft. In connection with the GATX
Agreement, on October 9, 2001, GFC entered into an
agreement with Airbus and agreed, among other things, that in
certain specified circumstances it would pay to Airbus an amount
up to $77.8 million which Airbus is required to pay to GFAC
in reimbursement of PDPs paid by GFAC with respect to the GATX
Allocated Aircraft (the October 9, 2001
Agreement). Under the Split Agreement, FHG was to take the
benefit of the remaining PDPs allocated to it (approximately
$149.8 million) and enter into a new contract with Airbus
but, following SAirGroups bankruptcy, FHG did not enter
into such a contract, and Airbus then declared GFAC in default
and retained the approximately $149.8 million in PDPs held
by it as damages.
On October 10, 2005, GFAC filed a complaint in the Supreme
Court of the State and County of New York against Airbus
alleging that Airbus termination of the GFAC Agreement was
wrongful and seeking restitution and damages in an unspecified
amount in the millions of dollars. On
December 7, 2005, FHG, acting by its liquidators (the
FHG Liquidators), filed a motion to intervene and an
accompanying complaint, which was granted on February 16,
2006 (the Airbus Action).
On October 14, 2005, the FHG Liquidators filed a complaint
in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
California, purportedly as a derivative complaint on behalf of
GFAC, against GFC, Third Aircraft, and Mr. James H. Morris
and Mr. Alan M. Reinke, then officers of a division of GFC
(the FHG Action). The complaint alleged that
Messrs. Morris and Reinke, as directors of GFAC, breached
their fiduciary duties and that GFC and Third Aircraft knowingly
assisted such breaches, thereby depriving GFAC of assets. The
complaint seeks damages in an amount including, but not
necessarily limited to, approximately $227.6 million. In
certain specified circumstances, Messrs. Morris and Reinke
are indemnified against losses they suffer or incur as a result
of their service as GFAC directors. The Company believes there
is no valid basis for any claim made by the FHG Liquidators in
the complaint against GFC, Third Aircraft,
and/or
Messrs. Morris and Reinke.
The parties to the FHG Action entered into a Tolling and
Standstill Agreement (the Tolling Agreement) in
October of 2006 which, among other things, provides for a
standstill of claims or potential claims until the
89
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
conclusion of the Airbus Action described above. The Tolling
Agreement does not resolve the merits or liability for (or
against) any claims nor require payment of any monetary damages
by any party to another party.
On February 6, 2009, the New York Court in the Airbus
Action issued an opinion that granted the FHG Liquidators
motion for summary judgment on liability, holding that
Airbuss termination of the GFAC Agreement was a breach of
the agreement. This ruling was affirmed on a motion for
reconsideration and is currently the subject of an interlocutory
appeal in the appellate court.
Although the Company believes that its subsidiary, Third
Aircraft, may be entitled to an appropriate portion of any
ultimate recovery by the joint venture, the right to any such
recovery may be challenged by Airbus. On November 26, 2009,
Airbus served GATX with formal notice of its claims arising out
of the October 9, 2001 Agreement. Airbus claims that as a
result of the filing of the Airbus Action by GFAC, GATX breached
its obligations in the October 9, 2001 Agreement not to
dispute or procure a dispute by GFAC over Airbus
termination of the GFAC Purchase Agreement. Airbus seeks to
recover from GATX all losses and damages incurred in the Airbus
Action, including the full amount of the judgment entered
against it. Airbus alternatively alleges that GATX must
reimburse it for an amount up to $77.8 million dollars if
Airbus is ultimately ordered to pay the total amount of PDPs to
GFAC in the Airbus Action. Airbus raises further and additional
claims against GATX, including unjust enrichment and breach of
implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing. GATX has
responded denying the claims and raising numerous defenses
including that in light of the New York Courts
February 6, 2009, decision finding that Airbus breached the
GFAC Agreement, GATX has no obligation to reimburse Airbus under
the October 9, 2001 Agreement or the GFAC Agreement.
The Company believes that the likelihood of loss with respect to
these matters is remote and as a result has not recorded any
accrual as of December 31, 2009. While it is reasonably
possible that the Company may ultimately incur a loss in these
matters, at this time an estimate of the amount of such loss
cannot be made.
Polskie
Koleje Panstwowe S.A. v. DEC sp. z o.o.
In December 2005, Polskie Koleje Panstwowe S.A.
(PKP) filed a complaint, Polskie Koleje Panstwowe
S.A. v. DEC sp. z o.o., in the Regional Court in
Warsaw, Poland against DEC sp. z o.o. (DEC), an
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company currently named
GATX Rail Poland, sp. z o.o. The complaint alleges that, prior
to GATXs acquisition of DEC in 2001, DEC breached a
Conditional Sales Agreement (the Agreement) to
purchase shares of Kolsped S.A. (Kolsped), an
indirect subsidiary of PKP. The allegedly breached condition
required DEC to obtain a release of Kolspeds ultimate
parent company, PKP, from its guarantee of Kolspeds
promissory note securing a $9.8 million bank loan. Pursuant
to an amendment to the Agreement, DEC satisfied this condition
by providing PKP with a blank promissory note (the DEC
Note) and a promissory note declaration which allowed PKP
to fill in the DEC Note up to $10 million in the event a
demand was made upon it as guarantor of Kolspeds note to
the bank (the Kolsped Note). In May 1999, the then
current holder of the Kolsped Note, a bank (Bank),
sued PKP under its guarantee. PKP lost the DEC Note and
therefore did not use it to satisfy the guarantee, and the Bank
ultimately secured a judgment against PKP in 2002. PKP also
failed to notify DEC of the Banks lawsuit while the
lawsuit was pending.
After exhausting its appeals of the judgment entered against it,
PKP filed suit against DEC in December 2005, alleging that DEC
failed to fulfill its obligation to release PKP as a guarantor
of the Kolsped Note and is purportedly liable to PKP, as a third
party beneficiary of the Agreement. DEC has filed an answer to
the complaint denying the material allegations and raising
numerous defenses, including, among others, that: (i) the
Agreement did not create an actionable obligation, but rather
was a condition precedent to the purchase of shares in Kolsped;
(ii) DEC fulfilled that condition by issuing the DEC Note,
which was subsequently lost by PKP and redeemed by a Polish
court; (iii) PKP was not a third party beneficiary of the
Agreement; and (iv) the action is barred by the governing
limitations period. The first day of trial was held on
March 5, 2008, and the second and final day of trial was
held on December 7, 2009. On December 21, 2009, the
court issued an oral ruling rejecting all of PKPs claims.
The court recently issued its written decision supporting this
ruling and PKP may seek an appeal. If PKP appeals the ruling,
90
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
the Court of Appeals may affirm the judgment, quash the judgment
and remand the case to the trial court, or issue a judgment on
the merits, adjudicating some or all of PKPs claims.
As of December 31, 2009, PKPs claims for damages
totaled PLN 129.0 million or $45.1 million, which
consists of the principal amount, interest and costs allegedly
paid by it to the Bank and statutory interest. Statutory
interest would be assessed only if the Court of Appeals, or the
trial court on remand, ultimately awards damages to PKP, in
which case interest would be assessed on the amount of the award
from the date of filing of the claim in December 2005, to the
date of the award. The Company has recorded an accrual of
$15.5 million for this litigation pending final resolution
on appeal. While the ultimate resolution of this matter for an
amount in excess of this accrual is possible, the Company
believes that any such excess would not be material to its
financial position or liquidity. However, such resolution could
have a material adverse effect on the results of operations in a
particular quarter or fiscal year.
Viareggio
Derailment
On June 29, 2009, a train consisting of fourteen liquefied
petroleum gas (LPG) tank cars owned by GATX Rail
Austria GmbH (an indirect subsidiary of the Company, GATX
Rail Austria) and its subsidiaries derailed while passing
through the city of Viareggio, Italy. Five tank cars overturned
and one of the overturned cars was punctured, resulting in a
release of LPG, which subsequently ignited. Thirty-two people
died and others were injured in the fire, which also resulted in
property damage. The LPG tank cars were leased to FS Logistica
S.p.A., a subsidiary of the Italian state-owned railway,
Ferrovie dello Stato S.p.A. The cause of the accident is
currently under investigation. Due to the ongoing nature of the
investigation, many of the facts about the accident have not
been made available to GATX Rail Austria. GATX Rail Austria and
its subsidiaries have offered their cooperation to the
authorities who are investigating the accident. GATX Rail
Austria has received notices of claims from approximately
154 persons and companies who allegedly suffered damages as
a result of the accident. The Company and its subsidiaries
maintain insurance for losses related to property damage and
personal injury as is customary for railcar owners and lessors.
At this time, the Company cannot predict either the outcome of
the investigation or what legal proceedings, if any, may be
initiated against GATX Rail Austria, its subsidiaries or
personnel, and therefore the Company cannot reasonably estimate
the loss or range of loss (including defense costs), if any,
that may ultimately be incurred in connection with this
accident. The Company has not established any accruals for
potential liability related to this accident.
Other
Litigation
GATX and its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in a
number of other legal actions and claims, various governmental
proceedings and private civil suits arising in the ordinary
course of business, including those related to environmental
matters, workers compensation claims by GATX employees and
other personal injury claims. Some of the legal proceedings
include claims for punitive as well as compensatory damages.
Several of the Companys subsidiaries have also been named
as defendants or co-defendants in cases alleging injury relating
to asbestos. In these cases, the plaintiffs seek an unspecified
amount of damages based on common law, statutory or premises
liability or, in the case of ASC, the Jones Act, which provides
limited remedies to certain maritime employees. As of
January 26, 2010, there were 1,239 asbestos-related cases
pending against the Company and its subsidiaries. Out of the
total number of pending cases, 1,215 are Jones Act claims, most
of which were filed against ASC prior to the year 2000. During
2009, eleven new cases were filed, and thirteen cases were
dismissed or settled. During 2008, ten new cases were filed, and
four cases were dismissed or settled. During 2007, 18 new
asbestos-related cases were filed and eight cases were dismissed
or settled. For this three-year period, the aggregate amount
paid to settle asbestos-related cases filed against the Company
and its subsidiaries was less than $90,000. In addition, demand
has been made against the Company for asbestos-related claims
under limited indemnities given in connection with the sale of
certain former subsidiaries of the Company. It is possible that
the number of these cases or claims for indemnity could begin to
grow and that the cost of these cases, including costs to
defend, could correspondingly increase in the future.
91
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
The amounts claimed in some of the above described proceedings
are substantial and, while the final outcome of these matters
cannot be predicted with certainty at this time, considering
among other things, meritorious legal defenses and applicable
insurance coverage, it is the opinion of management that none of
these matters, when ultimately resolved, will have a material
adverse effect on GATXs consolidated financial position or
liquidity. It is possible, however, that the ultimate resolution
of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse
effect on the results of operations in a particular quarter or
fiscal year.
Accruals
and Reserves
Including the specific accrual amounts discussed above, the
Company has recorded accruals totaling $17.0 million at
December 31, 2009, for losses related to those litigation
matters the Company believes to be probable and for which the
amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Although the
ultimate amount of liability that may result from these matters
cannot be predicted with absolute certainty, it is the opinion
of management that none of these matters, when ultimately
resolved, will have a material adverse effect on GATXs
consolidated financial position or liquidity. It is possible,
however, that the ultimate resolution of one or more of these
matters could have a material adverse effect on the
Companys results of operations in a particular quarter or
fiscal year.
Environmental
The Companys operations are subject to extensive federal,
state and local environmental regulations. GATXs operating
procedures include practices to protect the environment from the
risks inherent in railcar leasing, which frequently involve
transporting chemicals and other hazardous materials.
Additionally, some of GATXs land holdings, including
previously owned properties, are and have been used for
industrial or transportation-related purposes or leased to
commercial or industrial companies whose activities may have
resulted in discharges onto the property. As a result, GATX is
subject to environmental cleanup and enforcement actions. In
particular, the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), also known
as the Superfund law, as well as similar state laws, generally
impose joint and several liability for cleanup and enforcement
costs on current and former owners and operators of a site
without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct.
If there are other potentially responsible parties
(PRPs), GATX generally participates in the cleanup
of these sites through cost-sharing agreements with terms that
vary from site to site. Costs are typically allocated based on
the relative volumetric contribution of material, the amount of
time the site was owned or operated,
and/or the
portion of the total site owned or operated by each PRP. GATX
has been notified that it is a PRP, among many PRPs, for study
and cleanup costs at three Superfund sites for which
investigation and remediation payments have yet to be determined.
At the time a potential environmental issue is identified,
initial reserves for environmental liability are established
when such liability is probable and a reasonable estimate of
associated costs can be made. Costs are estimated based on the
type and level of investigation
and/or
remediation activities that our internal environmental staff
(and where appropriate, independent consultants) have determined
to be necessary to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
Activities include initial site surveys and environmental
studies of potentially contaminated sites as well as costs for
remediation and restoration of sites determined to be
contaminated. In addition, GATX has provided indemnities for
potential environmental liabilities to buyers of divested
companies. In these instances, reserves are based on the scope
and duration of the respective indemnities together with the
extent of known contamination. Estimates are periodically
reviewed and adjusted as required to reflect additional
information about facility or site characteristics or changes in
regulatory requirements. GATX conducts an ongoing environmental
contingency analysis, which considers a combination of factors
including independent consulting reports, site visits, legal
reviews, analysis of the likelihood of participation in and the
ability of other PRPs to pay for cleanup, and historical trend
analyses. GATX does not believe that a liability exists for
known environmental risks beyond what has been provided for in
its environmental reserves.
GATX is involved in administrative and judicial proceedings and
other voluntary and mandatory cleanup efforts at 18 sites,
including the Superfund sites, at which it is participating in
the study or cleanup, or both, of alleged environmental
contamination. As of December 31, 2009, GATX has recorded
accruals of $24.1 million for
92
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
remediation and restoration of all known sites. These amounts
are included in other liabilities on GATXs balance sheet.
GATXs environmental liabilities are not discounted.
The Company did not materially change its methodology for
identifying and calculating environmental liabilities in the
three years presented. There are currently no known trends,
demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that are
reasonably likely to occur and materially affect the methodology
or assumptions described above.
Recorded liabilities include GATXs best estimates of all
costs for remediation and restoration of affected sites, without
reduction for anticipated recoveries from third parties, and
include both asserted and unasserted claims. However,
GATXs total cleanup costs at these sites cannot be
predicted with certainty due to various factors such as the
extent of corrective actions that may be required; evolving
environmental laws and regulations; advances in environmental
technology, the extent of other parties participation in
cleanup efforts; developments in ongoing environmental analyses
related to sites determined to be contaminated, and developments
in environmental surveys and studies of potentially contaminated
sites. As a result, future charges for environmental liabilities
could have a significant effect on results of operations in a
particular quarter or fiscal year as individual site studies and
remediation and restoration efforts proceed or as new sites
arise. However, management believes it is unlikely any
identified matters, either individually or in the aggregate,
will have a material adverse effect on GATXs financial
position or liquidity.

NOTE 23.

Financial
Data of Business Segments
|
The financial data presented below depicts the profitability,
financial position and capital expenditures of each of
GATXs continuing business segments.
GATX leases, operates and manages long-lived, widely used assets
in the rail, marine and industrial equipment markets. GATX also
invests in joint ventures that complement existing business
activities. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, GATX has three
financial reporting segments: Rail, Specialty and ASC.
Rail is principally engaged in leasing tank and freight railcars
and locomotives. Rail provides railcars primarily pursuant to
full-service leases, under which it maintains the railcars, pays
ad valorem taxes and insurance, and provides other ancillary
services. Rail also offers net leases for railcars and most of
its locomotives, in which case the lessee is responsible for
maintenance, insurance and taxes.
Specialty provides leasing, asset remarketing and asset
management services to the marine and industrial equipment
markets. Specialty offers operating leases, direct finance
leases and loans, and extends its market reach through joint
venture investments.
ASC owns and operates the largest fleet of U.S. flagged
self-unloading vessels on the Great Lakes, providing waterborne
transportation of dry bulk commodities for a range of industrial
customers.
Segment profit is an internal performance measure used by the
Chief Executive Officer to assess the performance of each
segment in a given period. Segment profit includes all revenues,
including earnings from affiliates, attributable to the segments
as well as ownership and operating costs that management
believes are directly associated with the maintenance or
operation of the revenue earning assets. Operating costs include
maintenance costs, marine operating costs, and other operating
costs such as litigation, asset impairment charges, provisions
for losses, environmental costs, and asset storage costs.
Segment profit excludes selling, general and administrative
expenses, income taxes and certain other amounts not allocated
to the segments. These amounts are discussed below in Other.
GATX allocates debt balances and related interest expense to
each segment based upon a pre-determined fixed recourse leverage
level expressed as a ratio of recourse debt (including off
balance sheet debt) to equity. The leverage levels for Rail,
Specialty and ASC are set at 4:1, 3:1 and 1.5:1, respectively.
Management believes that by utilizing this leverage and interest
expense allocation methodology, each operating segments
financial performance reflects appropriate risk-adjusted
borrowing costs.

reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. The Companys internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
|
|
|
|
(i)
|
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the Company;
|
|
|
(ii)
|
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and
that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and
directors of the Company; and
|
|
|
(iii)
|
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the
Companys assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
|
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In
addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to
future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate as a result of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the applicable policies and procedures
may deteriorate.
The Companys management, with the participation of its
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has
conducted an evaluation of the Companys internal control
over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by
this annual report based on the framework in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Such
evaluation included reviewing the documentation of the
Companys internal controls, evaluating the design
effectiveness of the internal controls and testing their
operating effectiveness.
Based on such evaluation, the Companys management has
concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this
annual report, the Companys internal control over
financial reporting was effective.
Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public
accounting firm that audited the financial statements included
in this annual report, has issued a report on the Companys
internal control over financial reporting. That report follows.

Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of GATX Corporation and
subsidiaries
We have audited GATX Corporation and subsidiaries internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009,
based on criteria established in Internal Control
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria).
GATX Corporation and subsidiaries management is
responsible for maintaining effective internal control over
financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness
of internal control over financial reporting included in the
accompanying Managements Report Regarding the
Effectiveness of Internal Control and Procedures. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the companys
internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material
respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk
that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the
design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on
the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A companys
internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the
companys assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, GATX Corporation and subsidiaries maintained, in
all material respects, effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the COSO
criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
2009 consolidated financial statements and schedule of GATX
Corporation and subsidiaries and our report dated
February 25, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
