Covered Hopper Delivery Trends
(Amounts in the 000s)
Tank Railcar Delivery Trends
(Amounts in the 000s)
After a peak in terms of overall volume, demand has
decreased and shifted towards more specialty hopper
railcar types, including large cube hoppers for plastic
pellets.
With a major shift in the energy market, the industry
expects more traditional and lower levels of replacement
demand for tank railcars over the next several quarters.

Revenue Operating Margin % ^(millions)
^: Manufacturing segment revenues and operating margin % presented above include an
estimate of revenue and profit, respectively, for railcars built for our lease fleet. Such revenues
and profit are based on an estimated fair market value of the leased railcars as if they had been
sold to a third party, less the cost to manufacture for operating margin %. Estimated revenues
related to railcars built for our lease fleet are eliminated in consolidation.
Manufacturing core competency allows ARI to be competitive and provide low cost, quality railcars and components

Exhibit A – Adj. EBITDA Reconciliation
EBITDA represents net earnings before income tax expense, interest expense (income) 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 (loss), cash flows
provided by operating activities or other statements 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)
and other income related to our short-term investments. 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 and income associated with short-term investments 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 short-term investments. 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.
