CAI International, Inc. Reports Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year of 2012
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
CAI International, Inc. (CAI) (NYSE: CAP), one of the world's leading
lessors of intermodal freight containers, today reported record results
for the fourth quarter and full year of 2012.
Highlights for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year of 2012
-
CAI reported record net income attributable to CAI common stockholders
for the fourth quarter of 2012 of $0.85 per fully diluted share, a 29%
increase compared to $0.66 for the fourth quarter of 2011.
-
For the full year of 2012, CAI reported record net income attributable
to CAI common stockholders of $3.18 per fully diluted share, a 25%
increase compared to $2.55 reported in 2011.
-
Rental revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012 increased 40% compared
to the fourth quarter of 2011 and 11% compared to the third quarter of
2012, the 11th consecutive quarter of record rental revenue.
-
CAI invested a record $522 million in rental equipment in 2012.
-
During October 2012, CAI completed the acquisition of approximately
71,000 TEUs of containers, for a net cost of $83.6 million, from
German investors. Prior to the purchase, CAI managed these containers
on behalf of the previous owners.
-
During October 2012, CAI issued $171.0 million of 3.47% fixed rate
asset-backed notes, the proceeds from which were used to repay part of
the Company's borrowings under its revolving credit facility.
-
During December 2012 CAI issued approximately 2.8 million shares of
common stock in a follow-on public offering and received proceeds of
$51.5 million, net of fees and expenses.
Net income attributable to CAI common stockholders for the fourth
quarter of 2012 was $17.4 million, compared to $12.9 million for the
fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of 35%. Net income attributable to
CAI common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $63.5
million, compared to $50.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011,
an increase of 26%.
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $49.9 million, compared
to $36.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of 38%.
Rental revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $44.9 million,
compared to $32.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of
40%. The increase in rental revenue was primarily due to an increase in
the average number of TEUs of owned containers on lease. Management fee
revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $2.4 million, compared to
$3.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, primarily due to a
reduction in the average number of TEUs of managed equipment on lease as
CAI has acquired a number of its previously managed portfolios over the
course of the past year. Finance lease income for the fourth quarter of
2012 increased to $2.5 million, from $1.1 million in the fourth quarter
of 2011, reflective of new finance leases entered into during 2012.
Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $173.9 million,
compared to $125.7 million for 2011, an increase of 38%. Rental revenue
for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $153.0 million, compared to
$106.7 million for 2011, an increase of 43%. The increase in rental
revenue was primarily due to a 44% increase in the average number of
TEUs of owned containers on lease compared to 2011. Management fee
revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $12.1 million, compared
to $13.0 million for 2011, primarily due to a reduction in the average
number of TEUs of managed equipment on lease. Gain on sale of container
portfolios for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $1.3 million,
compared to $2.3 million for 2011. Finance lease income for the year
ended December 31, 2012 increased to $7.6 million, from $3.7 million in
2011.
Victor Garcia, Chief Executive Officer of CAI, commented, "2012 was an
excellent year for our company. We achieved strong revenue and earnings
growth, generating $63.5 million of net income, a 26% increase compared
to 2011. During the year we invested more than $520 million in
equipment, a record level for CAI. In addition to investment in new
containers, we were able to finalize a number of other very attractive
investment opportunities, including sale leaseback transactions with our
shipping customers and the purchase of container portfolios from our
managed fleet. While our overall fleet utilization softened slightly
during 2012 from the record levels seen in 2010 and 2011, it remained
robust at an average for the year of 94.2%.
"The fourth quarter of 2012 saw the normal seasonal pattern of softening
utilization, our average utilization dropping from 94.8% in the third
quarter to 93.4% in the fourth quarter. At the end of the year, the
utilization of our fleet was 92.5%. Our utilization in the first quarter
of 2013 has stabilized around that level and we believe utilization will
increase over the remainder of the quarter and into the second quarter
based on increasing demand for equipment by our customers.
Mr. Garcia continued, "During December 2012, we closed a public offering
of our stock from which we received proceeds of more than $50 million.
The new equity provides the Company with sufficient financial resources
to pursue additional market opportunities in 2013. We expect that by the
end of the first quarter of 2013 we will have invested approximately
$100 million in portfolio purchases and sale leaseback opportunities
that will begin generating income in the second quarter of 2013. To
serve our customers' needs, we are also investing in new containers as
we believe demand in the second quarter will be strong. We expect 2013
will be a strong year for investment, revenue and earnings, with first
quarter net income below that of the fourth quarter of 2012, due
substantially to the normal seasonal decline in utilization and the
limited impact new investment will have on the quarter's revenue.
Mr. Garcia concluded, "We believe the prospects for new container
investment in 2013 for CAI and the container leasing industry remain
compelling. The second half of 2012 saw a limited amount of new
container production, which we believe resulted in below normal
industry-wide levels of new container inventory at the factories for
this time of year. At the same time, we expect a recovery in global
trade; Clarkson Research has estimated that containerized trade will
grow by approximately 6% in 2013, as compared to a growth rate of 4% in
2012. Expected trade growth, continued high utilization levels of lessor
fleets and our belief that many shipping companies will continue to have
limited budgets for container purchases in the coming year, are all
factors that we believe will lead to a strong market for our continued
investment in new containers. We believe that a strong market for new
container investment, combined with a continuation of opportunities for
sale leasebacks with customers and the repurchase of managed portfolios,
will lead to continued strong growth in revenue and profitability for
CAI in 2013."
