St. Charles, MO, October 27, 2016 - American Railcar Industries, Inc. (ARI or the Company) (NASDAQ: ARII) today reported its third quarter 2016 financial results. Jeff Hollister, President and CEO of ARI, commented, “Although we continue to see softness in the North American railcar market, our manufacturing facilities continue to operate efficiently, which we attribute to both our skilled workforce and our flexible operations. In addition, our railcar leasing and railcar services segments continue to complement our core manufacturing business and provide us with a supplemental stream of revenue, helping to partially offset the impact and challenges of operating in a down market.
The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) issued a railworthiness directive (Directive) on September 30, 2016 that addressed certain welding practices in one weld area in specified DOT 111 tank railcars manufactured by ARI and our affiliate, ACF Industries LLC. The FRA became involved as a result of one tank railcar manufactured by ARI having a leak identified in 2014. Since then, we have been actively cooperating with the FRA to review the one railcar and to inspect and analyze hundreds of others. We met with the FRA this week to express our concerns with the Directive and its impact on ARI, as well as the industry as a whole. We understand the FRA is reviewing our concerns. We are working with the FRA, our customers and industry groups to determine next steps to comply with the Directive. Throughout this process, we remain focused on the safety and quality of the railcars we manufacture.”
Third Quarter Summary
Total consolidated revenues were $145.0 million for the third quarter of 2016, a decrease of 16% when compared to $172.7 million for the same period in 2015. This decrease was primarily driven by decreased revenues in the manufacturing segment, partially offset by increased revenues in the railcar leasing and railcar services segments.
Manufacturing revenues were $93.5 million for the third quarter of 2016, a decrease of 24% compared to the same period in 2015. This decrease was primarily driven by fewer railcar shipments for direct sale with a higher mix of hopper railcars sold, which generally have lower average selling prices than tank railcars due to less material and labor content, and more competitive pricing on both hopper and tank railcars. Given the decrease in tank railcar demand and a shift in production to a larger mix of specialty railcars, tank railcar shipments have decreased. Hopper railcar production has also shifted to a larger mix of specialty railcars and demand for that market is beginning to soften, resulting in fewer overall shipments, although hopper railcar shipments for direct sale have increased with a lower percentage going to the Company's lease fleet compared to the same period in 2015.
During the third quarter of 2016, ARI shipped 855 direct sale railcars and 322 railcars built for the Company's lease fleet compared to 990 direct sale railcars and 918 railcars built for the lease fleet during the same period in 2015. Railcars built for the lease fleet represented 27% of ARI’s railcar shipments during the third quarter of 2016 compared to 48% for the same period in 2015. Because revenues and earnings related to leased railcars are recognized over the life of the lease, ARI's quarterly results may vary depending on the mix of lease versus direct sale railcars that the Company ships during a given period.
Manufacturing revenues for the third quarter of 2016 exclude $31.3 million of estimated revenues related to railcars built for the Company's lease fleet compared to $106.5 million for the same period in 2015. Estimated revenues related to railcars built for the Company's lease fleet decreased due to a lower quantity of railcars shipped for lease. Such revenues are based on an estimated fair market value of the leased railcars as if they had been sold to a third party, and are not recognized in consolidated revenues as railcar sales. Rather lease revenues are recognized in accordance with the terms of the contract over the life of the lease.
Railcar leasing revenues were $32.8 million for the third quarter of 2016, an increase of 5% over the $31.2 million for the comparable period in 2015. The primary reason for the increase in revenue was an increase in the number of railcars on lease. ARI had 10,961 railcars in its lease fleet as of September 30, 2016 compared to 10,317 railcars as of September 30, 2015.
Railcar services revenues were $18.6 million for the third quarter of 2016, an increase of 2% compared to $18.2 million for the same period in 2015. The primary reason for the increase in revenue was the additional capacity resulting from the Company's expansion projects in its repair network that continue to ramp up in 2016.
Consolidated earnings from operations were $16.1 million for the third quarter of 2016, a decrease of 68% from the $49.8 million for the same period in 2015. Consolidated operating margins decreased to 11.1% for the third quarter of 2016 compared to 28.8% for the same period in 2015. These decreases were primarily driven by lower earnings from operations in the Company's manufacturing segment partially offset by the growth of the Company’s lease fleet.
Manufacturing loss from operations was $(6.0) million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to earnings of $30.3 million for the same period in 2015. The Company has evaluated its potential exposure related to the FRA Directive and has established a loss contingency of $17.0 million to cover its probable and estimable liabilities, as of September 30, 2016, with respect to the Company's remedial response to the FRA Directive, taking into account currently available information and the Company's contractual obligations in its capacity as both a manufacturer and lessor of railcars subject to the FRA Directive. Also contributing to the decrease were fewer overall direct sale shipments, as discussed above, more competitive pricing on both hopper and tank railcars and higher costs associated with the lower production rates at our tank railcar facility. Estimated profit on railcars built for the Company’s lease fleet was $3.2 million and $24.7 million for the third quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively, and is excluded from manufacturing earnings from operations. Profit on railcars built for the Company's lease fleet is based on an estimated fair market value of revenues as if the railcars had been sold to a third party, less the cost to manufacture.
Railcar leasing earnings from operations were $22.0 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $21.4 million for the same period in 2015. This increase was primarily due to the growth in the number of railcars in the Company's lease fleet, partially offset by slightly lower lease rates on certain renewals.
Railcar services earnings from operations were $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $3.2 million for the same period in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to costs associated with the ramp up of operations at our recently completed expansion projects as well as higher depreciation expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.6 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2015. This $1.2 million decrease was primarily due to a decrease in compensation expense and lower consulting expenses, partially offset by an increase in share-based compensation expense and other corporate expenses. The increase in share based compensation expense was driven by the increase in the Company's stock price of $2 per share during the third quarter of 2016 compared to a decrease of $12 per share during the same period in 2015.
Net earnings for the third quarter of 2016 were $7.7 million, or $0.40 per share compared to $29.4 million, or $1.39 per share, in the same period in 2015. This decrease was driven primarily by decreased consolidated earnings from operations. Earnings per share for the third quarter of 2016 was negatively impacted by $0.54 per share for the loss contingency recorded related to the FRA Directive, as previously mentioned.
EBITDA, adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense (Adjusted EBITDA), was $31.3 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $62.6 million for the comparable quarter in 2015. The decrease resulted primarily from decreased earnings from operations as discussed above. A reconciliation of the Company’s net earnings to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (both non-GAAP financial measures) is set forth in the supplemental disclosure attached to this press release.
Year-to-Date Results
Consolidated revenues for the first nine months of 2016 were $471.6 million compared to $628.4 million for the comparable period in 2015. The Company shipped 2,917 direct sale railcars and 607 railcars built for the Company's lease fleet during the first nine months of 2016 compared to 4,385 direct sale railcars and 2,588 railcars built for the lease fleet during the same period
in 2015. Railcars built for the lease fleet represented 17% of ARI's railcar shipments in the first nine months of 2016 compared to 37% for the same period in 2015.
Consolidated earnings from operations for the first nine months of 2016 were $92.8 million, a decrease of 44% from $165.1 million for the comparable period in 2015. Consolidated earnings from operations for the first nine months of 2016 and 2015 excluded $7.7 million and $85.5 million, respectively, of profit on railcars built for the lease fleet that is eliminated in consolidation. Operating margins were 19.7% for the first nine months of 2016 compared to 26.3% for the same period of 2015. These decreases were primarily due to fewer overall direct sale shipments, more competitive pricing on both hopper and tank railcars, higher costs associated with the lower production rates at our tank railcar facility and the consolidated loss contingency recognized during the third quarter of 2016 of $17.0 million related to railcars sold to customers that are subject to the FRA Directive, as discussed above, partially offset by increased earnings due to the growth in the lease fleet.
Net earnings for the first nine months of 2016 were $50.4 million, or $2.58 per share compared to $97.3 million, or $4.58 per share, for the comparable period in 2015, due to decreased earnings from operations and a reduction of $0.8 million from earnings from joint ventures as demand for the components our joint ventures provide is tied to the industry's new railcar demand.
Adjusted EBITDA was $136.2 million for the first nine months of 2016, a decrease of $66.9 million from $203.1 million for the comparable period in 2015. The decrease resulted primarily from decreased consolidated earnings from operations, in addition to a reduction of earnings from joint ventures for the first nine months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
The Company’s earnings have contributed to cash flow from operations in the first nine months of 2016 of $148.7 million. As of September 30, 2016, ARI had working capital of $241.1 million, including $198.0 million of cash and cash equivalents.
The Company paid dividends totaling $23.4 million during the first nine months of 2016. At the board meeting in October, the Company’s board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.40 per share of common stock of the Company to shareholders of record as of December 9, 2016 that will be paid on December 22, 2016.
Through October 26, 2016, the Company repurchased 482,699 shares of common stock at a cost of $18.3 million under its stock repurchase program during 2016. Board authorization for approximately $175.1 million remains available for further stock repurchases.
Backlog
ARI's backlog as of September 30, 2016 was 5,085 railcars with an estimated value of $490.2 million. Of the total backlog, 1,904 railcars, or 38%, were subject to lease with an estimated market value of $179.1 million.

EBITDA represents net earnings before income tax expense, interest expense (income), loss on debt extinguishment and depreciation of property, plant and equipment. The Company believes EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating ARI’s operating performance compared to that of other companies in the same industry. In addition, ARI’s management uses EBITDA to evaluate operating performance. The calculation of EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending. These items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall operating performance of a company’s business. EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Accordingly, when analyzing the Company’s operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows provided by operating activities or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The calculation of EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before share-based compensation expense (income) related to stock appreciation rights (SARs). Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance, and therefore uses Adjusted EBITDA for that purpose. The Company’s SARs, which settle in cash, are revalued each period based primarily upon changes in ARI’s stock price. Management believes that eliminating the expense (income) associated with share-based compensation allows management and ARI’s investors to understand better the operating results independent of financial changes caused by the fluctuating price and value of the Company’s common stock and certain non-recurring events. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows provided by operating activities or other statements of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
