CAI International, Inc. Reports Results for the First Quarter of 2016
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 3, 2016--CAI International, Inc. (CAI) (NYSE: CAI), one of the world’s leading transportation finance and logistics companies, today reported results for the first quarter of 2016.
Highlights
- CAI reported revenue for the first quarter of 2016 of $67.0 million, an increase of $8.5 million compared to the first quarter of 2015. The increase in revenue was primarily due to growth in our logistics business. Lease-related revenue for the first quarter of 2016 was $58.8 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1%, compared to the first quarter of 2015.
- Net income attributable to CAI common stockholders for the first quarter of 2016 was $7.2 million, or $0.36 per fully diluted share.
- Average container utilization during the first quarter of 2016 was 91.2% (on a CEU basis) compared to 93.5% for the first quarter of 2015, and 91.1% for the fourth quarter of 2015.
- Average railcar utilization during the first quarter of 2016 was 96.5% compared to 93.3% for the first quarter of 2015, and 96.1% for the fourth quarter of 2015.
- During the first quarter of 2016, CAI increased the number of railcars in its fleet to 5,338, with the purchase of 242 new and used railcars for $22.2 million.
- Rental revenue from CAI’s railcar assets was $7.3 million during the first quarter of 2016, an increase of 149% compared to the first quarter of 2015, and 28% compared to the fourth quarter of 2015.
- On February 12, 2016 CAI acquired Challenger Overseas, LLC (Challenger), a New Jersey based Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC) for approximately $11 million, a portion of which is based on the future performance of Challenger.
- Logistics revenue for the first quarter of 2016 was $8.2 million, primarily due to the acquisition of ClearPointt Logistics LLC (ClearPointt) in July 2015, and Challenger in February 2016.
- Under the previously approved share repurchase program, CAI repurchased approximately 700,000 shares in the first quarter of 2016 at an average price of $8.54.
Revenue for the first quarter of 2016 was $67.0 million, compared to $58.5 million for the first quarter of 2015, an increase of 14%. Revenue from CAI’s railcar assets increased over the same period by $4.3 million to $7.3 million as a result of growth in the railcar fleet, whereas revenue from the container leasing business decreased by $3.4 million to $50.9 million, reflecting a reduction in utilization and lease rates over the period. Management fee revenue for the first quarter of 2016 was $0.6 million, a decrease of $0.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2015, due primarily to the decrease in size of the managed fleet. Logistics revenue for the first quarter of 2016 was $8.2 million, primarily arising from our acquisition of ClearPointt in July 2015 and Challenger in February 2016.
Net income attributable to CAI common stockholders for the first quarter 2016 was $7.2 million, or $0.36 per fully diluted share, compared to $13.5 million, or $0.64 per fully diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015.
Victor Garcia, Chief Executive Officer of CAI, commented, “The first quarter is typically our weakest quarter being the period of the year when we receive redeliveries of equipment after the traditional holiday season. Net redeliveries were greatest during January and February, while in March we began to receive more demand for equipment lease outs, though overall the demand was moderate. For the quarter, we reported net income of $7.2 million, or $0.36 per fully diluted share. The results for the quarter were impacted by a greater number of off-hire units as compared to the same period last year and by continued low container sales prices during the period. Our focus for the container leasing segment continues to be reducing off-hire costs and increasing utilization, by disposing of older equipment and moving equipment to higher demand locations for sale or lease.
“Equipment prices during the first quarter remained low by historical standards, particularly in Asia, due to high inventory levels. Towards the end of the quarter, however, we have seen increased demand for equipment sales and have begun to increase prices in certain locations in and out of Asia. We believe that the increase in Chinese steel prices of approximately 80% from the December 2015 lows will increase new container prices, which we expect will have a positive effect on prices in the secondary sales market. Chinese steel prices at the end of April 2016 were at approximately the same price level as at the beginning of 2015, a period when new container prices were significantly higher.
“We expect that demand for containers will improve over the next six months and with limited new investment in equipment, we expect our utilization to improve over that period. Lease rates remain very competitive, particularly for idle equipment in depots. However, we expect lease rates to improve as demand for containers increases over the coming months and utilization for lessors improves.”
Mr. Garcia continued, “Our rail assets reported utilization of 96.5% for the quarter and the segment’s performance was strong. For the quarter, revenue from rail assets was $7.3 million, or 12% of total lease-related revenue. We expect our rail segment to continue being a growing share of our revenue and earnings. Railroad equipment velocity has increased as a result of a decline in coal volumes and oil tank car shipments. As a result of the increased rail velocity and backlog of new equipment deliveries, the need for equipment has moderated which has placed pressure on railcar leasing rates. We continue to have a diversified fleet of equipment on long term leases and expect that overall the performance of our rail group will remain strong in 2016.
“Logistics revenue for the first quarter was $8.2 million, an increase of 35% from the fourth quarter of 2015; approximately 60% of the increase was due to organic growth in the business. We are very pleased with the progress we are making in enhancing our logistics business. We have continued to win new customers and expected continued growth in the segment. We have added additional operational and sales staff to enhance our national presence and expect continued strong revenue growth from the segment. We included only a partial quarter’s results from our acquisition of Challenger that was completed in February 2016. Challenger’s results are in line with our expectations and we expect its second quarter to contribute to our overall net income.
“During the quarter, we also completed the repurchase of approximately 700,000 shares at an average price of $8.54 per share. During the last two years, we have repurchased approximately 3.3 million shares, representing 15% of our outstanding common stock, which we believe benefits our long-term shareholders. We will continue to look for opportunities to build long-term shareholder value that strengthens our overall business.”
Mr. Garcia concluded, “Although we are working our way through the effects of a moderate demand period in our container business, we are excited by the steady progress we are making in strengthening and diversifying our business. We believe that container demand will improve over the coming months and that the efforts we are making on other fronts will continue to expand the overall intrinsic value of our company. We are excited about the direction of our efforts and are focused on achieving our strategic business plan.”

Utilization is computed by dividing total units on lease, in CEUs (cost equivalent units) or TEUs (twenty foot equivalent units), by the total units in our fleet, in CEUs or TEUs, excluding new units not yet leased and off-hire units designated for sale. CEU is a ratio used to convert the actual number of containers in our fleet to a figure based on the relative purchase prices of our various equipment types to that of a standard 20 foot dry van container. For example, the CEU ratio for a standard 40 foot dry van container is 1.6, and a 40 foot high cube container is 1.7. |
