(1) Refer to the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information” set forth below.
(2) Utilization is computed by dividing total units on lease in CEUs (cost equivalent unit) by the total units in our fleet in CEUs, excluding CEUs that have been designated as held for sale and units manufactured for us but not yet delivered to a lessee. CEU is a unit of measurement based on the approximate cost of a container relative to the cost of a standard 20-foot dry container. These factors may differ from CEU ratios used by others in the industry.
(3) TEU refers to a twenty-foot equivalent unit, which is a unit of measurement used in the container shipping industry to compare shipping containers of various lengths to a standard 20-foot container, thus a 20-foot container is one TEU and a 40-foot container is two TEU.

  • Net income of $289.5 million for the full year, or $6.12 per diluted common share, and $61.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, or $1.38 per diluted common share;
  • Adjusted net income of $289.9 million for the full year, or $6.13 per diluted common share, as compared to $284.1 million, or $5.62 per diluted common share in the prior year. Adjusted net income of $62.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, or $1.38 per diluted common share, as compared to $76.6 million, or $1.64 per diluted common share in the third quarter of 2022;
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $745.5 million for the full year, as compared to $697.9 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA of $179.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, as compared to $192.6 million in the third quarter of 2022;
  • Average and ending utilization rate for the fourth quarter of 99.0% and 98.9%, respectively;
  • Added $786 million of new containers in 2022, assigned to long-term and finance leases;
  • Repurchased 1,543,267 shares and 5,636,772 shares of common stock at an average price of $29.29 per share and $31.69 per share during the fourth quarter and full year of 2022, respectively. As of the end of the year, the remaining authority under the share repurchase program totaled $122.5 million;
  • Textainer’s board of directors approved and declared a quarterly preferred cash dividend on its 7.00% Series A and its 6.25% Series B cumulative redeemable perpetual preference shares, payable on March 15, 2023, to holders of record as of March 3, 2023; and
  • Textainer’s board of directors approved and declared a $0.30 per common share cash dividend, payable on March 15, 2023 to holders of record as of March 3, 2023, an increase of $0.05 per common share, or 20%, from the previous quarter.

“We are pleased to deliver a record profit for 2022, confirming an extraordinary performance across all our key business fundamentals. For the full year 2022, lease rental income increased 8% to $810 million, driven by organic fleet growth from capex deployed in the first half of the year and the full year impact from capex investment in 2021. Adjusted net income reached $290 million, or $6.13 per diluted share, benefiting from our profitable fleet growth, exceptional resale market, and positive impact from our robust share repurchase program. Finally, we achieved an adjusted EBITDA of $746 million and a ROE of over 18% for the year,” stated Olivier Ghesquiere, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“The last two years were a pivotal period of growth within the container shipping industry, allowing us to expand our fleet and improve the quality of our top line while greatly strengthening our balance sheet. As exceptional gain on sale normalizes to more sustainable levels, our long-term lease contracts in particular will support high utilization and long-term profitability which places us in an ideal position to prepare for the next favorable market opportunity.”

“In the meantime, the strong cash flow generation of the fleet continues to support our ability to return capital to shareholders. During the year, share repurchases totaled 5.6 million shares, or 11.5% of our outstanding common shares as of the beginning of the year. Since commencing our share repurchase program in September of 2019, we have repurchased 15.7 million shares, demonstrating our commitment to efficiently managing shareholder returns. In addition, I am very pleased to announce that our board has increased our quarterly common dividend to $0.30 from $0.25 per share, further demonstrating their confidence in our underlying long-term business fundamentals and reliable cash generation.”

“In summary, 2022 was a tremendous year for Textainer and I am very proud of the strong performance across the organization, helping secure our profitability and cash flow for many years to come. Looking ahead, we expect stabilizing performance in 2023 as we continue to strategically assess the environment and invest only in opportunities in line with our long-term profitability objectives. Our core business model is durable and resilient, with contracted revenue and profits protected by our long-term lease contracts and fixed-rate financing policy. While we wait for market demand to turn, possibly towards the end of the year, we will continue to prioritize our capital allocation toward both strengthening our balance sheet and returning capital to our shareholders through ongoing share repurchase and dividend programs,” concluded Ghesquiere.

Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Results

Total lease rental income for the year increased $59.3 million from 2021 due to an increase in fleet size and average rental rate. Total lease rental income for the quarter decreased $2.2 million from the third quarter of 2022 due to a slight decrease in both fleet size and utilization.

Trading container margin for the year decreased $8.9 million from 2021, mostly due to a decrease in average unit margin per container sold.

Gain on sale of owned fleet containers, net for the year increased $9.7 million from 2021, due to an increase in the number of containers sold, partially offset by a decrease in average gain per container sold. Gain on sale of owned fleet containers, net for the quarter decreased $7.8 million from the third quarter of 2022, due to lower resale prices resulting from market normalization, partially offset by higher container sales volume.

Direct container expense – owned fleet for the year increased $8.6 million from 2021 and for the quarter increased $2.2 million from the third quarter of 2022, due to higher maintenance, handling and storage expense resulting from redeliveries of predominantly older, sales age containers, in turn driving our increased resale activity.

Distribution to managed fleet container investors for the year decreased $6.2 million from 2021, and for the quarter, decreased slightly when compared to the third quarter of 2022, due mostly to a reduction in the managed fleet size.

Depreciation and amortization for the year increased $8.7 million from 2021, primarily due to a net increase of our operating lease fleet. Depreciation and amortization for the quarter increased $0.9 million from the third quarter of 2022.

Interest expense for the year increased $30.0 million from 2021, due to a higher average debt balance and an increase in our average effective interest rate. Interest expense for the quarter increased $1.9 million from the third quarter of 2022, primarily driven by an increase in our average effective interest rate.

Debt termination expense for 2021 amounted to $15.2 million, which included a $10.6 million loan termination payment and a $4.2 million write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs, resulting from the early redemption of certain higher-priced fixed-rate asset backed notes with proceeds from our lower-priced debt facilities. There was no debt termination expense in 2022.

Realized loss on financial instruments, net and unrealized gain on financial instruments, net for the year decreased $5.5 million and $4.9 million, respectively, from 2021, primarily due to the termination of all interest rate swaps not designated under hedge accounting during the second and third quarter of 2021. As of September 30, 2021, all of our outstanding interest rate swaps were designated under hedge accounting and no longer generate realized or unrealized gain (loss) on financial instruments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement Textainer’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted common share, adjusted EBITDA, headline earnings and headline earnings per basic and diluted common share.

Management believes that adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share are useful in evaluating Textainer’s operating performance. Adjusted net income is defined as net income attributable to common shareholders excluding debt termination expense, unrealized (loss) gain on derivative instruments and marketable securities and the related impacts on income taxes. Management considers adjusted EBITDA a widely used industry measure and useful in evaluating Textainer’s ability to fund growth and service long-term debt and other fixed obligations. Headline earnings is reported as a requirement of Textainer’s listing on the JSE. Headline earnings and headline earnings per basic and diluted common shares are calculated from net income which has been determined based on GAAP.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the tables below for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-GAAP measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and are presented solely as supplemental disclosures. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be relied upon in isolation, or as a substitute to net income, income from operations, cash flows from operating activities, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • They do not reflect cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs;
  • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt;
  • Although depreciation expense and container impairment are a non-cash 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 non-cash 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.
