2021 fourth-quarter net income from continuing operations was $61.0 million or $1.69 per diluted share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $17.8 million or $0.50 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2020. The 2021 fourth-quarter results include a net positive impact from Tax Adjustments and Other Items of $0.11 per diluted share. Details related to these items are provided in the attached Supplemental Information under Tax Adjustments and Other Items.

Net income from continuing operations for the full-year 2021 was $143.1 million or $3.98 per diluted share, compared to $150.2 million or $4.24 per diluted share in the prior year period. The 2021 and 2020 full-year results include net negative impacts from Tax Adjustments and Other Items of $1.08 per diluted share and $0.35 per diluted share, respectively.

"Our 2021 financial results were significantly better than we anticipated," said Brian A. Kenney, president and chief executive officer of GATX. "Rail North America's outperformance was driven by improving market conditions combined with exceptional execution by our commercial and operations teams. In addition to achieving higher fleet utilization and a higher renewal success rate, we have now experienced six consecutive quarters of sequential increases in absolute lease rates. Lower fleet churn as a result of this strong commercial performance, combined with efficiency improvements across our network, helped drive lower maintenance costs. We also further optimized our fleet by selectively selling railcars into a robust secondary market, generating strong remarketing income.

"Rail International also performed well, despite supply chain and COVID-related interruptions at railcar manufacturers that delayed new car deliveries. Demand for our railcars remained strong in Europe and India. Consequently, Rail International maintained high fleet utilization and continued to experience increases in renewal lease rates. In Portfolio Management, results were in line with our lower expectations given the ongoing negative impact of global travel restrictions on long-haul air travel.

"In 2021, we continued to execute on our strategy to invest in attractive leasing assets across our global businesses. For the second year in a row, our full-year investment volume exceeded $1.0 billion."

Mr. Kenney added, "In 2022, we anticipate the steady recovery in the North American railcar leasing market will continue. We expect market lease rates to increase above average expiring rates for railcars renewing during the year. Combined with higher asset disposition gains, Rail North America is expected to produce higher segment profit in 2022. Rail International’s 2022 segment profit is also expected to increase as strong demand for new and existing railcars continues in Europe and India. In Portfolio Management, we currently project a decrease in our earnings from the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates as the global aviation market continues to experience significant uncertainty. Finally, we anticipate higher Trifleet earnings in 2022 as demand for tank containers worldwide remains strong."

Mr. Kenney concluded, “We expect that continuing improvement in the North American railcar leasing market combined with the attractive investments made across our global businesses in recent years will continue to drive earnings growth at GATX. Based on this outlook, we currently expect 2022 earnings to be in the range of $5.50 to $5.80 per diluted share.”

RAIL NORTH AMERICA

Rail North America reported segment profit of $75.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $49.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. Higher segment profit was primarily due to higher gains on asset dispositions in the quarter. Full-year 2021 Rail North America reported segment profit of $285.4 million, compared to $227.6 million in 2020. Higher segment profit in 2021 was primarily the result of higher gains on asset dispositions and lower maintenance expense, partially offset by lower lease revenue. The 2021 fourth-quarter and year-to-date segment profit include a net gain of $5.3 million from Tax Adjustments and Other Items.

At Dec. 31, 2021, Rail North America’s wholly owned fleet was approximately 114,500 cars, including more than 12,900 boxcars. The following fleet statistics and performance discussion exclude the boxcar fleet.

Fleet utilization was 99.2% at the end of the fourth quarter, compared to 99.2% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.1% at 2020 year end. During the fourth quarter, the GATX Lease Price Index (LPI), a weighted-average lease renewal rate for a group of railcars representative of Rail North America’s fleet, was negative 0.7%. This compares to negative 8.1% in the prior quarter and negative 22.6% in the fourth quarter of 2020. The average lease renewal term for railcars included in the LPI during the fourth quarter was 37 months, compared to 32 months in the prior quarter and 34 months in the fourth quarter of 2020. The fourth-quarter renewal success rate was 89.2%, compared to 84.0% in the prior quarter and 77.0% in the fourth quarter of 2020.

For full-year 2021, the renewal lease rate change of the LPI was negative 8.5% and the average renewal term was 32 months, compared to negative 23.5% and 31 months in 2020. The renewal success rate for 2021 was 82.7%, compared to 70.8% in 2020. Total investment volume was $574.4 million in 2021.

Additional fleet statistics, including information on the boxcar fleet, and macroeconomic data related to Rail North America’s business are provided on the last page of this press release.

RAIL INTERNATIONAL

Rail International’s segment profit was $28.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $25.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. Fourth-quarter segment profit increase was predominately driven by more railcars on lease and foreign exchange impacts, partially offset by higher maintenance expense. Rail International reported full-year segment profit of $105.0 million in 2021, compared to $83.5 million in 2020. Higher year-to-date segment profit was primarily driven by more railcars on lease.

At Dec. 31, 2021, GRE’s fleet consisted of approximately 27,100 cars and utilization was 98.7%, compared to 98.1% at the end of the prior quarter and 98.1% at 2020 year end.

Additional fleet statistics for GRE are provided on the last page of this press release.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

Portfolio Management reported segment profit of $36.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to segment loss of $5.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. Higher segment profit was driven by performance at the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance (RRPF) affiliates and GATX Engine Leasing earnings. Full-year 2021 segment profit was $60.8 million, compared to $77.4 million in 2020. The decrease in year-to-date segment profit was primarily due to lower share of affiliates’ earnings from the Rolls-Royce and Partners Finance affiliates.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In the second quarter of 2020, GATX completed the sale of American Steamship Company (ASC). The ASC business segment is accounted for as discontinued operations. The final gain on the sale of ASC, net of taxes, was $3.3 million. Results for discontinued operations are summarized below:

(1)

In addition to financial results reported in accordance with GAAP, we compute certain financial measures using non-GAAP components. Specifically, we exclude the effects of certain tax adjustments and other items for purposes of presenting net income, diluted earnings per share, and return on equity because we believe these items are not attributable to our business operations. Management utilizes net income, excluding tax adjustments and other items, when analyzing financial performance because such amounts reflect the underlying operating results that are within management’s ability to influence. Accordingly, we believe presenting this information provides investors and other users of our financial statements with meaningful supplemental information for purposes of analyzing year-to-year financial performance on a comparable basis and assessing trends.

(2)

Net gain from insurance recoveries for storm damage to a maintenance facility at Rail North America.

(3)

Write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the early redemption of our $150 million 5.625% Senior Notes due 2066.

(4)

Deferred income tax adjustments due to an enacted corporate income tax rate increase in the United Kingdom in 2021 and the elimination of a previously announced corporate income tax rate reduction in the United Kingdom in 2020.

(5)

Shareholders’ equity used in this calculation excludes the increases resulting from the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

(1)

GATX's Lease Price Index (LPI) is an internally-generated business indicator that measures lease rate pricing on renewals for our North American railcar fleet, excluding boxcars. GATX calculates the index using the weighted-average lease rate for a group of railcar types that GATX believes best represents its overall North American fleet, excluding boxcars. The average renewal lease rate change is reported as the percentage change between the average renewal lease rate and the average expiring lease rate, weighted by fleet composition. The average renewal lease term is reported in months and reflects the average renewal lease term of railcar types in the LPI, weighted by fleet composition.

(2)

Excludes boxcar fleet.

(3)

As reported and revised by the Federal Reserve.

(4)

As reported by the Association of American Railroads (AAR).

(5)

As reported by the Railway Supply Institute (RSI).
