St. Charles, MO, August 1, 2017 - American Railcar Industries, Inc. (ARI or the Company) (NASDAQ: ARII) today reported its second quarter 2017 financial results. Jeff Hollister, President and CEO of ARI, commented, "As announced in our press release in early June, we began managing our railcar leasing business in-house upon completion of the sale of our previous lease fleet manager, American Railcar Leasing (ARL). As a result, we have added personnel to increase our sales force and to support managing our lease fleet, and we feel we have a strong team in place. This group is comprised of numerous key employees including existing ARI employees, former ARL employees, and others who have joined us from elsewhere in the industry. The commercial team is led by John O'Bryan, our Chief Commercial Officer. Managing our lease fleet in-house enhances our ability to serve our customers with a complete suite of products and services to support all of their needs. Our balanced sales and lease strategy across a broad group of customers and railcar types is complemented by our strong core manufacturing business and repair services network, which together allow us to better position ourselves in the current challenging railcar market.
Shipments for the second quarter of 2017 were 1,076 railcars, which represent an increase of 5.8% when compared to the same period of 2016. Furthermore, we have received orders for 798 railcars during the second quarter of 2017, bringing total orders to 1,672 railcars for the first six months of 2017. This total compares to orders for 1,568 railcars for the full year of 2016. While industry orders during the second quarter of 2017 were reported at their highest level since the second quarter of 2015, we still see softness in the tank railcar market. There are consistent levels of interest in certain hopper railcar types, but these opportunities have been and continue to be competitive. We feel we are strategically positioned with our vertically integrated business model to capitalize on limited opportunities that arise as we work with customers operating within the hopper and tank railcar markets."
Second Quarter Revenue Summary
Total consolidated revenues were $109.0 million for the second quarter of 2017, a decrease of 28% when compared to $150.5 million for the same period in 2016. This decrease was due to decreased revenues in the manufacturing segment, partially offset by slightly increased revenues in the railcar leasing and railcar services segments.
Manufacturing revenues were $55.1 million for the second quarter of 2017, a decrease of 44% compared to $97.5 million for the same period in 2016. This decrease was primarily driven by fewer railcar shipments for direct sale as more than half of our railcar shipments were for lease during the second quarter of 2017. Furthermore, the Company experienced a more competitive pricing environment during the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.
During the second quarter of 2017, ARI shipped 531 railcars for direct sale and 545 railcars for lease compared to 932 railcars for direct sale and 85 railcars for lease during the same period in 2016. Railcars built for the lease fleet represented 51% of ARI’s railcar shipments during the second quarter of 2017 compared to 8% for the same period in 2016. This quarterly rate is
high relative to our historical average, but it is consistent with our strategy to continue to invest in and grow our lease fleet as demand dictates in certain railcar types. Shipments and orders for railcars on long-term leases not only help us to maintain a steady level of production during the manufacturing period, but also provide a steady stream of future cash flows. Because revenues and earnings related to leased railcars are recognized over the life of the lease, our quarterly results may vary depending on the mix of lease versus direct sale railcars that we ship during a given period.
Manufacturing revenues for the second quarter of 2017, on a consolidated basis, exclude $54.6 million of revenues related to railcars built for the Company's lease fleet compared to $9.3 million for the same period in 2016. Revenues related to railcars built for the Company's lease fleet increased due to a higher volume of railcars shipped for lease. Such revenues are based on an estimated fair market value of the leased railcars as if they had been sold to a third party, and are not recognized in consolidated revenues as railcar sales. Rather, lease revenues are recognized in accordance with the terms of the contract over the life of the lease.
Railcar leasing revenues were $33.7 million for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 2% over the $33.2 million for the comparable period in 2016. The primary reason for the increase in revenue was an increase in the number of railcars on lease, partially offset by a decline in weighted average lease rates. ARI had 12,414 railcars in its lease fleet as of June 30, 2017 compared to 10,641 railcars as of June 30, 2016.
Railcar services revenues were $20.2 million for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 2% compared to $19.7 million for the same period in 2016. The primary reasons for the increase in revenue were due to increased demand and additional capacity from our mobile repair operations, partially offset by decreased demand for tank railcar qualifications and tank railcar exterior paint and interior linings. Our tank railcar manufacturing facility provides us the flexibility not only to produce new railcars, but also to perform repair and retrofit services in a production line set-up offering another option for us to meet our customers' repair needs. This additional flexibility allowed us to complete certain repair projects at our tank railcar manufacturing facility during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 that were performed to a lesser extent during the comparable periods of 2016. We also saw increased intercompany repair work for our growing lease fleet.
Consolidated earnings from operations were $22.2 million for the second quarter of 2017, a decrease of 38% from the $36.0 million for the same period in 2016. Consolidated operating margins decreased to 20.3% for the second quarter of 2017 compared to 23.9% for the same period in 2016. These decreases were primarily driven by lower earnings from operations in the Company's manufacturing segment combined with slightly lower earnings from operations in the railcar leasing segment and higher selling, general and administrative costs.
Manufacturing earnings from operations were $2.5 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to earnings of $14.4 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily a result of fewer overall direct sale shipments, as discussed above, more competitive pricing on both hopper and tank railcars, and higher costs associated with lower production volumes. Profit on railcars built for the Company’s lease fleet was $4.8 million and $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively, and is excluded from manufacturing earnings from operations. Profit on railcars built for the Company's lease fleet is based on an estimated fair market value of revenues as if the railcars had been sold to a third party, less the cost to manufacture. Partially offsetting this decrease was a reduction of the loss contingency established in response to the FRA Revised Directive, as discussed further in our SEC filings.
Railcar leasing earnings from operations were $21.6 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $22.9 million for the same period in 2016. This decrease was primarily due to increased maintenance costs associated with our growing lease fleet and certain railcars reassigned to other lessees and lower lease rates on certain renewals.
Railcar services earnings from operations were $3.0 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $3.1 million for the same period in 2016. This decrease was primarily due to an unfavorable mix of work, partially offset by an increase in demand for our mobile repair services.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $9.0 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $7.3 million for the same period in 2016. This $1.7 million increase was primarily due to higher legal costs, a prior year credit to bad debt expense and compensation costs primarily related to the increased workforce in sales and fleet management due to the transition of managing our lease fleet in-house, partially offset by decreased commissions due to a lower mix of railcar shipments for direct sale compared to the prior year and stock-based compensation costs due to fluctuations in the Company’s stock price.
Net earnings for the second quarter of 2017 were $10.9 million, or $0.57 per share compared to $19.9 million, or $1.02 per share, in the same period in 2016. This decrease was driven largely by decreased earnings from operations, as discussed above, as well as the impact of increased tax expense during the second quarter of 2017 as the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $1.0 million against a deferred tax asset related to a capital loss carryforward. This valuation allowance equates to a decrease of $0.05 per share for the second quarter of 2017.
EBITDA, adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense and other income related to short-term investment activity (Adjusted EBITDA), was $37.0 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $50.4 million for the comparable quarter in 2016. The decrease resulted primarily from decreased earnings from operations as discussed above. A reconciliation of the Company’s net earnings to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (both non-GAAP financial measures) is set forth in the supplemental disclosure attached to this press release.
Year-to-Date Results
Consolidated revenues for the first six months of 2017 were $223.7 million compared to $326.7 million for the comparable period in 2016. The Company shipped 1,080 direct sale railcars and 1,147 railcars built for the Company's lease fleet during the first six months of 2017 compared to 2,062 direct sale railcars and 285 railcars built for the lease fleet during the same period in 2016. Railcars built for the lease fleet represented 52% of ARI's railcar shipments in the first six months of 2017 compared to 12% for the same period in 2016.
Consolidated earnings from operations for the first six months of 2017 were $44.1 million, a decrease of 43% from $76.7 million for the comparable period in 2016. Consolidated earnings from operations for the first six months of 2017 and 2016 excluded $10.9 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of profit on railcars built for the lease fleet that is eliminated in consolidation. Operating margins were 19.7% for the first six months of 2017 compared to 23.5% for the same period of 2016. These decreases were primarily driven by lower earnings from operations in the Company's manufacturing segment combined with slightly lower earnings from operations in the railcar leasing and railcar services segments and higher selling, general and administrative costs.
Net earnings for the first six months of 2017 were $21.5 million, or $1.12 per share compared to $42.7 million, or $2.18 per share, for the comparable period in 2016, primarily due to decreased earnings from operations as discussed above, driven largely by the heavier mix of railcars produced for our lease fleet during the first half of 2017 and lower overall shipments.
Adjusted EBITDA was $73.1 million for the first six months of 2017, a decrease of $31.8 million from $104.9 million for the comparable period in 2016. The decrease resulted primarily from decreased earnings from operations as discussed above. A reconciliation of the Company’s net earnings to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (both non-GAAP financial measures) is set forth in the supplemental disclosure attached to this press release.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
The Company’s earnings have contributed to cash flow from operations in the first six months of 2017 of $52.2 million. As of June 30, 2017, ARI had working capital of $172.0 million, including $102.8 million of cash and cash equivalents.
As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $558.4 million of debt outstanding, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $4.8 million, and borrowing availability of $200.0 million under a revolving loan.
The Company paid dividends totaling $15.3 million during the first six months of 2017. At the board meeting in July, the Company’s board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.40 per share of common stock of the Company to shareholders of record as of September 8, 2017 that will be paid on September 22, 2017.
The Company has not repurchased any shares of its common stock thus far in 2017 under its stock repurchase program. Board authorization for approximately $164.0 million remains available for further stock repurchases.
Backlog
ARI's backlog as of June 30, 2017 was 2,878 railcars with an estimated market value of $270.0 million. Of the total backlog, we currently expect 715 railcars, or 25%, having an estimated market value of $66.5 million, will be placed into our lease fleet.

EBITDA represents net earnings before income tax expense, interest expense (income) and depreciation of property, plant and equipment. The Company believes EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating ARI’s operating performance compared to that of other companies in the same industry. In addition, ARI’s management uses EBITDA to evaluate operating performance. The calculation of EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending. These items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall operating performance of a company’s business. EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Accordingly, when analyzing the Company’s operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows provided by operating activities or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The calculation of EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before share-based compensation expense (income) related to stock appreciation rights (SARs) and other income related to our short-term investments. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance, and therefore uses Adjusted EBITDA for that purpose. The Company’s SARs, which settle in cash, are revalued each period based primarily upon changes in ARI’s stock price. Management believes that eliminating the expense (income) associated with share-based compensation and income associated with short-term investments allows management and ARI’s investors to understand better the operating results independent of financial changes caused by the fluctuating price and value of the Company’s common stock and short-term investments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows provided by operating activities or other statements of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
