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 2017.
Highlights
Revenue for the first quarter of 2017 was $81.5 million, compared to $67.0 million for the first quarter of 2016, an increase of 22%. Revenue from the container leasing business increased by $1.4 million to $53.0 million, and included approximately $2.2 million of insurance proceeds related to lost revenue from the previously reported bankruptcy of Hanjin, partially offset by a decrease in the size of the owned container fleet and a reduction in lease rates during the period. Revenue from CAI’s railcar assets increased over the same period by $0.8 million to $8.1 million as a result of growth in the railcar fleet. Logistics revenue for the first quarter of 2017 was $20.5 million, primarily arising from our acquisitions during the past twelve months.
Net income attributable to CAI common stockholders for the first quarter of 2017 was $5.3 million, or $0.27 per fully diluted share, compared to $7.1 million, or $0.36 per fully diluted share, for the first quarter of 2016.
Additional information on CAI's results, as well as the state of the industry, is available in a presentation posted today on the "Investors" section of CAI's website, www.capps.com.
Victor Garcia, President and Chief Executive Officer of CAI, commented, “We are extremely excited about the improvement in our results this quarter and the prospects for the coming year. For the quarter, we reported revenue of $81.5 million and net income per fully diluted share of $5.3 million, or $0.27 per fully diluted share. During the quarter, we increased our average owned container fleet utilization to 95.7% compared to 94.3% for the fourth quarter of 2016. This is particularly noteworthy considering that the first quarter is traditionally our weakest demand period and reflects the strong demand for equipment we are witnessing. The utilization of our owned container fleet is currently 96.9% and we expect it to increase further during the second quarter when we expect utilization to exceed 97%.
“During the quarter, we experienced a couple of noteworthy items. We recognized $2.2 million of income from insurance related to lost income from the Hanjin bankruptcy. We also recorded an unexpected equipment loss of $1.3 million related to a U.S. lease and sale customer that sold the containers we had on lease without paying for the units. The net result of these two items increased our net income for the quarter by $0.9 million.”
Mr. Garcia added, “Considering the strong and improving market environment, we have invested in new containers and placed the equipment purchased on leases with attractive lease rates. We invested $63 million in containers in the first quarter and are committed to an additional $56 million for delivery in the second quarter, all of which are booked for lease. Per diem rates are currently three times the levels they were this time last year and relative returns are much improved. We expect that the improvement in returns will continue for the rest of the year.
“We believe that the current equipment supply constraints will persist longer than is currently expected or understood, and may have a material effect on the supply and availability of containers to the shipping lines and their customers. The leasing industry is a primary provider of annual container investment and limited ordering could constrain overall production of containers. In addition, no other financing source provides equipment prior to a commitment being in place by the shipping line. We believe that a potential lack of on-the-ground investment may create a container shortage over the remainder of this year.”
Mr. Garcia continued, “We are excited about the opportunity for investment this year, but we are even more focused on improving the return on our existing assets. We have been able to increase prices on the sale of used containers and expect that in the second quarter of this year we are likely to report a gain on sale, compared to the losses we have incurred in recent quarters. In March, we essentially broke even on used container sales and have since increased prices going into the second quarter. We are also seeking opportunities to increase per diem rates on low per diem leases that are expiring.
“We believe that with the improved returns on the sale of equipment, higher utilization of the current fleet, higher lease rate renegotiations and ongoing new investment, our earnings will accelerate in each of the following quarters. Our aim is to reach annualized double digit return on equity by the end of the third or fourth quarter of this year. We believe that our market leading utilization and improving returns is in large part due to our enhanced logistics focus and ability to diversify our investments to achieve the best returns that are available in the market. We are able to grow our business, while remaining selective in the terms and type of business we pursue.”
Mr. Garcia concluded, “Earlier this month, we renegotiated the delivery schedule of our multi-year railcar purchase program, deferring approximately 25% of our 2017 $95 million committed railcar investment into 2018 with most of the remainder being deferred to the third and fourth quarters of this year. We have had success in entering into attractive lease renewals and the level of inquiry for rail equipment is increasing as rail velocity has declined due to increased energy related traffic. We expect that rail activity will be stronger over the second half of the year and the revised redelivery schedule provides us a better environment to market our railcars and frees up capital in the short term to add to our investment in containers.”

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.
