McGrath RentCorp Announces Results for Second Quarter 2017

August 2, 2017 at 4:03 PM EDT

LIVERMORE, Calif., Aug. 02, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McGrath RentCorp (NASDAQ:MGRC) (the “Company”), a diversified business to business rental company, today announced total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 of $109.6 million, an increase of 6%, compared to the second quarter of 2016.  The Company reported net income of $11.5 million, or $0.48 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2017, compared to net income of $9.1 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2016.

SECOND QUARTER 2017 COMPANY HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Income from operations increased 21% year-over-year to $21.8 million.
  • Rental revenues increased 5% year-over-year to $70.0 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 increased 7% million to $41.9 million for the second quarter of 2017.   
  • Dividend rate increased 2% year-over-year to $0.26 per share for the second quarter of 2017. On an annualized basis, this dividend represents a 2.8% yield on the August 1, 2017 close price of $36.54 per share.

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

“We were pleased with our second quarter performance.  Mobile Modular accounted for the majority of the Company’s 21% operating profit increase compared to a year ago, as a result of higher gross profit from rental operations and higher sales gross profit.  TRS-RenTelco also achieved operating profit growth through effective management of depreciation expense, while the contribution from Adler Tank Rentals was down slightly compared to a year ago.

Mobile Modular rental revenues for the quarter increased 11% from a year ago as rental rates, fleet utilization and equipment on rent all increased.  Rental revenue growth continued to be healthy across commercial and education markets, as well as in our Portable Storage business.

TRS-RenTelco rental revenues for the quarter declined 2% as a result of lower communications test equipment business activity.  Communications test equipment rental revenues declined by 9%, but were partly offset by a 5% increase for general-purpose test equipment.  While average equipment utilization increased, average rental rates declined for the quarter, primarily due to the business activity mix shift from communications to general-purpose test equipment. 

Adler Tank Rentals rental revenues for the quarter increased 2% from a year ago.  Upstream oil and natural gas rental revenue declined from 11% to 9% of total Adler rental revenues, but was more than offset by growth in other market verticals.  Average equipment on rent increased 10% to $167 million from $152 million a year ago and average utilization improved, although rental rates declined as a result of competitive price pressure and product mix shifts.

Our second quarter results are beginning to reflect some impact from initiatives that we have launched through our return on invested capital (or ROIC) work, particularly for Mobile Modular.  We are also maintaining discipline on new rental equipment capital spending while selectively selling some non-core equipment.

While end market conditions remain challenging for Adler Tank Rentals, and to a lesser extent TRS-RenTelco, we are encouraged by our second quarter and year to date results.  Based on these results and our current outlook for the second half of the year we are raising our financial outlook and expect 2017 total Company operating profit to increase 9% to 12% above 2016, compared to our prior expectation of a 3% to 5% increase.”

DIVISION HIGHLIGHTS:

All comparisons presented below are for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 to the quarter ended June 30, 2016 unless otherwise indicated.

MOBILE MODULAR

For the second quarter of 2017, the Company’s Mobile Modular division reported income from operations of $11.3 million, an increase of $3.0 million, or 36%.  Rental revenues increased 11% to $35.0 million, depreciation expense increased 2% to $5.3 million and other direct costs decreased 9% to $10.2 million, which resulted in an increase in gross profit on rental revenues of 28% to $19.5 million.  Rental related services revenues decreased 1% to $12.0 million, with associated gross profit decreasing 20% to $3.0 million.  Sales revenues increased 64% to $9.5 million and gross margin on sales of 26% was comparable to 2016, resulting in increased gross profit on sales revenues of $1.0 million.  Selling and administrative expenses increased 12% to $13.8 million, primarily due to increased salaries and employee benefit costs and higher allocated corporate expenses. 

TRS-RENTELCO

For the second quarter of 2017, the Company’s TRS-RenTelco division reported income from operations of $7.1 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 19%.  Rental revenues decreased 2% to $19.8 million, depreciation expense decreased 11% to $8.0 million and other direct costs decreased 2% to $3.3 million, which resulted in an increase in gross profit on rental revenues of 8% to $8.6 million.  Sales revenues decreased 13% to $5.6 million.  Gross margin on sales increased to 61% from 47% in 2016 primarily due to higher margins on used equipment sales, resulting in a 13% increase in gross profit on sales revenues to $3.4 million.  Selling and administrative expenses decreased 4% to $5.3 million, primarily due to lower allocated corporate expenses.

ADLER TANKS

For the second quarter of 2017, the Company’s Adler Tanks division reported income from operations of $3.0 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 7%.  Rental revenues increased 2% to $15.1 million, depreciation expense decreased 2% to $3.9 million and other direct costs increased 17% to $2.5 million, which together resulted in a comparable gross profit on rental revenues of $8.7 million.  Rental related services revenues decreased 4% to $6.2 million, with gross profit on rental related services increasing 1% to $1.5 million.  Selling and administrative expenses increased 5% to $7.3 million, primarily due to increased salaries and benefit costs.

FINANCIAL OUTLOOK:

Based upon the Company’s year to date results and current outlook for the second half of the year, the Company is raising its financial outlook and expects 2017 total Company operating profit to increase 9% to 12% above 2016, compared to our prior expectation of a 3% to 5% increase.

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 share-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 and the Company’s ability to meet future capital expenditure and working capital requirements.  Management believes the exclusion of non-cash charges, including share-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 share-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 SEC, 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.
