Rental revenues increase 4%

EPS decreases 11% to $0.47 for the Quarter

Company announces 2% dividend increase

LIVERMORE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 21, 2013-- McGrath RentCorp (NASDAQ: MGRC) (the “Company”), a diversified business to business rental company, today announced revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 of $102.0 million, an increase of 20%, compared to $85.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. The Company reported net income of $11.9 million, or $0.47 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2012, compared to net income of $13.2 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $364.1 million, compared to $342.7 million in 2011. Rental revenues increased 6% to $248.4 million in 2012 compared to $234.9 million in 2011. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased 10% to $44.8 million, compared to net income of $49.6 million in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share decreased 11% to $1.78 in 2012 from $2.00 in 2011.

The Company also announced that the board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.24 per share for the quarter ending March 31, 2013, an increase of 2% over the prior year period. On an annualized basis, the 2013 dividend represents a 3.3% yield, based on the February 20, 2013 closing stock price. The cash dividend will be payable on April 30, 2013 to all shareholders of record on April 16, 2013.

Dennis Kakures, President and CEO of McGrath RentCorp, made the following comments regarding these results and future expectations:

“Although Company-wide rental revenues increased by 4% from a year ago, we had an 11% decrease in EPS for the quarter. This is primarily the result of lower rental revenues for Adler relative to its current cost structure. While Adler rental revenues grew over last year’s fourth quarter by approximately 6%, its income from operations declined by approximately 39%. Over the past year we have executed on ramping our tank rental business’s national footprint to support higher rental revenue and earnings levels in the years ahead. These costs are primarily related to filling management, sales, office and inventory center positions, facilities and winch / roll-off tractor infrastructure. This is all by design. Adler’s profitability was also impacted negatively during the quarter by $1.3 million higher bad debt write-offs from a year ago. Finally, we also experienced $0.7 million higher expenses during the quarter from a year ago in moving underutilized equipment from the dry gas Marcellus region to other Adler geographies in need of equipment. We have now completed the great majority of these interregional asset movements and we anticipate this expense category will be materially lower in 2013. Adler’s average rental equipment utilization for the fourth quarter 2012 stood at 69.9% compared to 86.8% a year ago, and 68.9% in the third quarter 2012. Our percentage of overall rental revenue derived from E&P gas and oil fracking declined from a high of approximately 35% in 2011, to 15% in the fourth quarter of 2012, and at the same time rental revenues grew by 6%. We have a great tank rental business, but not without some growing pains. What’s most important is that Adler is making very good headway in establishing its brand name, high quality products and exceptional customer experiences over an increasingly larger geography and customer base, quarter after quarter.

TRS-RenTelco, our electronic test equipment division, rental revenues for the quarter increased by $1.5 million, or 6% to $26.8 million from a year ago. Divisional income from operations increased by 18% from the fourth quarter of 2011. The significantly higher percentage increase in profitability as compared to rental revenues was chiefly related to lower SG&A, laboratory and equipment depreciation expenses all as a percentage of rental revenues from a year ago. Our results for TRS-RenTelco continue to reflect its discipline in strategic focus, strong brand following, operational efficiencies and an exceptionally talented and tenured work force.

Modular division rental revenues for the quarter were relatively flat at $20.1 million compared to $20.3 million a year ago, and $20.0 million from the third quarter 2012. Rental revenues grew by 9% quarter over quarter in our markets outside of California and declined by 9% within the state. Modular rental revenues outside of California now represent approximately 47% of total modular rental revenues. First month’s rental bookings for the modular division increased 26% from a year ago with bookings outside of California increasing 89% and declining by 15% within the state. Although our California modular results continue to be depressed due to macroeconomic headwinds, there are a number of positive indicators going forward. These bright spots include the successful November 2012 personal income and sales taxes ballot initiative and its anticipated impact on reversing public education austerity; a December 2012 statewide unemployment rate of 9.8% down from a Great Recession high of 12.6%; scarce inventory of existing homes for sale in some regions as market prices begin to increase; and a marked pick-up in both non-residential and residential construction.

Modular division quarter over quarter income from operations decreased by approximately 8% to $5.6 million from $6.1 million in 2011; however, modular division gross profit was up slightly to $14.4 million compared to $14.2 million a year ago, and from $13.2 million in the third quarter of 2012. First, the higher percentage reduction in income from operations relative to flat rental revenues for the quarter is primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense, and secondarily to increased SG&A costs in our portable storage business. The increase in gross profit for the fourth quarter over the third quarter 2012 relates chiefly to lower inventory center costs incurred. Finally, average utilization for the fourth quarter 2012 was 66.8%, down slightly from 67.1% a year ago, however, up from 66.2% in the third quarter 2012.

Our portable storage business continued to make good progress during the quarter in building its customer following, increasing booking levels and growing rental revenues. The business achieved both its full year rental revenue and profitability goals for 2012. Turning the corner into 2013, our portable storage business has strong momentum and we are excited about its long-term prospects in becoming a meaningfully sized business and a material contributor to McGrath RentCorp’s earnings.

In 2012, we added a net $74 million in original cost of rental assets. These rental products were primarily for the growth of Adler Tank Rentals, and for our test equipment and portable storage businesses. During the year we also paid out $23 million in shareholder dividends. Finally, we invested $14 million in property, plant and equipment expenditures, primarily for the growth of Adler Tank Rentals; yet, our year ending notes payable only rose by approximately $5 million, and we carried a 1.91 to 1 ratio of funded debt (notes payable) to last twelve months actual adjusted EBITDA . Strong cash flows and a low-leveraged balance sheet matter greatly towards the financial strength, opportunity nimbleness, and overall shareholder returns of McGrath RentCorp.”

All comparisons presented below are for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 to the quarter ended December 31, 2011 unless otherwise indicated.

MOBILE MODULAR

For the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company’s Mobile Modular division reported an 8% decrease in income from operations to $5.6 million. Rental revenues decreased 1% to $20.1 million and other direct costs increased 16% to $5.4 million, which resulted in a decrease in gross profit on rental revenues of 8% to $11.2 million. Sales revenues increased 12% to $4.1 million, with gross profit on sales revenues increasing 13% to $1.0 million, primarily due to higher new and used equipment sales revenues in the fourth quarter of 2012. Selling and administrative expenses increased 8% to $8.7 million primarily as a result of higher bad debt expense and higher salary and benefit costs, primarily related to the expansion of our Portable Storage growth initiative.

TRS-RENTELCO

For the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company’s TRS-RenTelco division reported an 18% increase in income from operations to $10.1 million. Rental revenues increased 6% to $26.8 million. The increase in rental revenues together with a 3% decrease in other direct costs to $3.3 million, partly offset by a 4% increase in depreciation expense to $9.9 million, resulted in an increase in gross profit on rental revenues of 10% to $13.7 million. Sales revenues increased 42% to $10.1 million with gross profit on sales flat at $2.8 million, due to lower margins on used equipment sales revenues in the fourth quarter of 2012, which included $3.7 million in proceeds from the sale of the TRS-Environmental product line at a loss of $0.4 million. Selling and administrative expenses decreased 3% to $6.8 million, primarily due to decreased salary and benefit costs.

ADLER TANKS

For the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company’s Adler Tanks division reported a 39% decrease in income from operations to $5.9 million. Rental revenues increased 6% to $18.2 million and other direct costs more than doubled to $3.0 million, which resulted in a decrease in gross profit on rental revenues of 11% to $11.9 million. Rental related services revenues increased $1.2 million to $5.0 million, with gross profit on rental related services revenues decreasing $0.6 million to $0.6 million. Selling and administrative expenses increased 35% to $6.8 million, primarily due to higher bad debt expenses and higher personnel and benefit costs.

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

The Company expects 2013 full-year earnings per share to be in a range of $1.85 to $1.95 per diluted share.

For the full-year 2013, the Company expects 4% to 7% growth in rental operations revenues over 2012. Sales revenue is expected to be approximately 10% lower than 2012, but gross profit from sales is expected to be comparable to 2012. Rental equipment depreciation expense is expected to increase to between $67 and $69 million, driven by rental fleet growth. Selling and administrative costs are expected to increase to between $89 and $91 million to support business growth, and continued investment in Adler Tanks and our portable storage initiative. Full year interest expense is expected to be approximately $9 million. The Company expects the 2013 effective tax rate to be 39.2% and the diluted share count to increase to between 25.3 and 25.7 million shares. These forward-looking statements reflect McGrath RentCorp’s expectations as of February 21, 2013. Actual 2013 full-year earnings per share results may be materially different and affected by many factors, including those factors outlined in the “forward-looking statements” paragraph at the end of this press release.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measures

To supplement the Company’s financial data presented on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company presents Adjusted EBITDA which is defined by the Company as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and non-cash stock-based compensation. The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA as a financial measure as management believes it provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s liquidity and financial condition and because management, as well as the Company’s lenders, use this measure in evaluating the performance of the Company.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplement to GAAP measures to further evaluate the Company’s period-to-period operating performance, compliance with financial covenants in the Company’s revolving lines of credit and senior notes as well as the Company’s ability to meet future capital expenditure and working capital requirements. Management believes the exclusion of non-cash charges, including stock-based compensation, is useful in measuring the Company’s cash available for operations and performance of the Company. Because management finds Adjusted EBITDA useful, the Company believes its investors will also find Adjusted EBITDA useful in evaluating the Company’s performance.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows, or other consolidated income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of the Company’s profitability or liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA is not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP, and may be different from non−GAAP measures used by other companies. Unlike EBITDA, which may be used by other companies or investors, Adjusted EBITDA does not include stock-based compensation charges. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is of limited use in that it does not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and does not accurately reflect real cash flow. In addition, other companies may not use Adjusted EBITDA or may use other non-GAAP measures, limiting the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of comparison. The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that the Company will not incur expenses that are the same as or similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should only be used to evaluate the Company’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The Company compensates for the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of the Company’s performance. Because Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company includes in the tables below reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
