A quarterly dividend of
$0.24 per share was declared.
“The container leasing industry was affected by two primary factors last
year: slower than expected trade growth and falling steel prices. Growth
in trade last year was estimated at less than 1%, below estimated GDP
growth of 3.1%. Steel prices declined last year by approximately 40%.
These factors have largely continued into 2016 leading to limited demand
for containers and a further decline in new and used container prices
during the first quarter of 2016,” stated
“Continued low new container prices mean rental rates and used container
prices have remained under pressure. Low used container prices were a
major reason for the decline in our income from operations, as they
underlie the
“Our utilization remained resilient. It currently stands at 94.1%, a
decline of only 0.5 percentage points since the beginning of the year.
The relative strength of our utilization is due to many factors: 84% of
our fleet is subject to long-term and finance leases only 8.5% of which
mature in 2016, the structure of our leases require a majority of
containers to be returned in

First-Quarter Results
Textainer’s first quarter results were adversely impacted by an increase in container impairments due to a decrease in used container prices and an increase in the volume of containers designated for disposal, an increase in depreciation expense due to the impact of the reduction of the 4H container residual value in 2015 and an increase in the size of our owned fleet, a decrease in lease rental income due to a decrease in rental rates and lower utilization, and an increase in direct container expense, primarily due to an increase in storage costs resulting from lower utilization.
Dividend
On
“We remain confident in our ability to generate strong cash flow during
these challenging market conditions given the long-term structure of our
fleet and the maximum level of lease maturities in any one year is less
than 8% of our total fleet. As a result, we have maintained the dividend
at
Outlook
“We are starting to see some bright spots. Trade is projected to grow
1.5%-2.5% in 2016, an improvement over 2015. Demand for containers,
which was low through the
“The price of steel has increased and we understand new container prices
have risen by
“It is also worth noting that new container factory inventory has declined to 690,000 TEU and total output could total less than two million TEU this year. With disposals likely to exceed 1.5 million TEU, minimal growth in the world’s container fleet is expected. Any improvement in trade and container demand is likely to lead to higher container prices and rental rates.”
“Notwithstanding these positive signs, we expect market conditions during 2016 to remain challenging. The impact of low new and used container prices and rate reductions from the repricing of maturing leases will continue to be felt. Historically low freight rates have led to increased credit risk and two major Asian shipping lines have entered into restructuring negotiations with their creditors. However, container supply remains under control. When trade and demand rebound the impact could be felt quickly. With our low leverage and solid cash flow, we are well positioned to act.”

Important Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of U.S. securities laws. Forward-looking statements include
statements that are not statements of historical facts and include,
without limitation, statements regarding: (i) Textainer’s belief that
both new and used container prices will increase over the medium term;
(ii) Textainer’s belief that container factory output could total less
than two million TEU this year; (iii) Textainer’s belief that with
disposals likely to exceed 1.5 million TEU, minimal growth in the
world’s container fleet is expected; (iv) Textainer’s belief that any
improvement in trade and container demand is likely to lead to higher
container prices and rental rates; (v) Textainer’s expectation that
market conditions during 2016 will continue to remain challenging; (vi)
Textainer’s belief that the impact of low new and used container prices
and rate reductions from the repricing of maturing leases will continue
to be felt; (vii) Textainer’s belief that container supply remains under
control and that when trade and demand rebound the impact could be felt
quickly; and (viii) Textainer’s belief that with its low leverage and
solid cash flow, it is well positioned to act. Readers are cautioned
that these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties,
are only predictions and may differ materially from actual future events
or results. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation,
the following items that could materially and negatively impact our
business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and
future prospects: any deceleration or reversal of the current domestic
and global economic recoveries; lease rates may decrease and lessees may
default, which could decrease revenue and increase storage,
repositioning, collection and recovery expenses; the demand for leased
containers depends on many political and economic factors and is tied to
international trade and if demand were to decrease due to increased
barriers to trade or political or economic factors, or for other
reasons, it could reduce demand for intermodal container leasing; as we
increase the number of containers in our owned fleet, we increase our
capital at risk and may need to incur more debt, which could result in
financial instability;

Non-GAAP Measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and should
not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) income, income from
operations or any other performance measures derived in accordance with
GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a
measure of our liquidity. Non-GAAP Measures are presented solely as
supplemental disclosures. Management believes that adjusted EBITDA may
be a useful performance measure that is widely used within our industry
and adjusted net income may be a useful performance measure because
Management also believes that adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share are useful in evaluating our operating performance because unrealized losses on interest rate swaps, collars and caps, net is a noncash, non-operating item. We believe Non-GAAP Measures provide useful information on our earnings from ongoing operations. We believe that adjusted EBITDA provides useful information on our ability to service our long-term debt and other fixed obligations and on our ability to fund our expected growth with internally generated funds. Non-GAAP Measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider either of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results or cash flows as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- They do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
- Although depreciation expense and container impairment is a noncash charge, the assets being depreciated may be replaced in the future, and neither adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income or adjusted net income per diluted common share reflects any cash requirements for such replacements;
- They are not adjusted for all noncash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows; and
- Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
