McGrath RentCorp Announces Results for Third Quarter 2013

October 30, 2013 at 4:01 PM EDT

Rental revenues increase 4%

Net income up 1%

EPS decreases 4% to $0.48 for the Quarter

LIVERMORE, Calif., Oct. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McGrath RentCorp (Nasdaq:MGRC) (the "Company"), a diversified business to business rental company, today announced revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 of $108.9 million, an increase of 10%, compared to $99.4 million in the third quarter of 2012. The Company reported net income of $12.6 million, or $0.48 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2013, compared to net income of $12.5 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2012.

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

"Although we are disappointed that Company-wide net income was relatively flat and EPS down 4% from a year ago, we are pleased with the underlying favorable business activity levels and momentum we are seeing overall in our rental business portfolio. A higher fully diluted share count from a year ago led to the $0.02 reduction in EPS.

Rental revenues at Adler Tank Rentals, our tank and box division, increased by $2.3 million, or 13%, to $19.1 million from a year ago. New business activity as measured by first month's rent and units booked continued favorably with increases of 20% and 26%, respectively, from the same period a year ago. With an increasing mix of non-fracking related rentals, we are seeing shorter average rental terms and a greater churn of rental equipment which has put downward pressure on utilization. Average utilization was 66.8% for the quarter compared to 68.9% in 2012; however average equipment on rent was $179.4 million during the quarter compared to $159.8 million a year ago. This is reflective of our need to continue to acquire a variety of tanks and boxes, other than 21K standard frack tanks, to support non-fracking end markets. In fact, during the third quarter, non-fracking related rental revenues increased by 24% to 88% of our rental revenue mix from 81% for the same period in 2012.

Although we were disappointed with Adler's results for the first half of 2013, third quarter divisional income from operations increased by $0.9 million, or 12%, to $8.5 million from a year ago. We benefited favorably from increases in both rental and rental related services gross profit during the quarter due to higher business activity levels and movement of incoming and outgoing equipment from the same period in 2012. However, we also experienced significantly higher SG&A expenses overall from a year ago primarily due to increased business activity levels and related sales compensation, additional headcount and facility infrastructure costs associated with a broader national footprint, and higher bad debt and health insurance costs. Inventory center expenses were also higher as a percentage of rents from the same period in 2012 due to the increased flow of incoming and outgoing equipment.

TRS-RenTelco, our electronics division, rental revenues for the quarter decreased by $0.8 million, or 3%, to $25.7 million from a year ago. The decline is directly related to the sale of our environmental test equipment assets and related rental revenue stream late in 2012. We also experienced lower business activity levels for general purpose test equipment with high-tech and aerospace & defense firms. This is further reflected in average utilization for the quarter of 62.5% compared to 65.7% in 2012. Average monthly rental rates for the quarter actually increased to 5.15% from 4.95% compared to a year ago; however, this is primarily due to an increased mix of communications test equipment which has shorter depreciable lives but higher rental rates than general purpose test equipment. Excluding environmental test equipment rental revenues from 2012, TRS-RenTelco rental revenues grew by approximately 1%; however, divisional income from operations decreased by $0.6 million, or 6%, to $9.6 million for the quarter. The higher percentage reduction in income from operations as compared to rental revenues is primarily due to higher depreciation expense as a percentage of rents and lower profit on equipment sales, partly offset by lower SG&A and laboratory costs, as compared to the same period in 2012.

Modular division-wide rental revenues for the quarter increased by $1.1 million, or 5%, to $21.1 million, from a year ago, as well as sequentially from the second quarter of 2013. During the third quarter we experienced a 15% increase in division-wide year over year first month's rental revenue bookings for modular buildings with an increase of 39% in California, and a decline of 3% outside of the state. Over the first nine months of 2013, we've experienced an 18% increase in division-wide year over year first month's rental revenue bookings for modular buildings with an increase of 24% in our markets outside of California, and 11% within the state. Rental bookings in 2013 are at their highest levels since 2007 prior to the Great Recession. Rental bookings have continued favorably in October. A number of orders booked over the past few months have only billed for a portion of the third quarter, or are not scheduled to ship and bill until either the fourth quarter of 2013 or the first quarter of 2014. Modular division ending utilization for the third quarter rose to 70.4% compared to 66.6% a year ago and 67.6% at the end of the second quarter of 2013. This is the highest modular division utilization level since the second quarter of 2009. We are also continuing to see rental rates rise for various sized products as demand exceeds readily available supply.

Modular division income from operations for the quarter decreased by $2.1 million, or 45%, to $2.5 million, from a year ago. The reduction in operating income is directly related to the increase in divisional booking levels and the significant increase in related inventory center costs for labor and materials to prepare and modify equipment for rental. This is compounded by needing to redeploy various rental assets that have been sitting idle for extended time frames which tend to have higher processing costs than inventory that turns more frequently. In fact, inventory center costs primarily for the preparation of booked orders and anticipated near-term orders were approximately $3.6 million higher during the third quarter compared to a year ago. For the first nine months of 2013 these equipment preparation costs are approximately $5.9 million higher than for the same time period in 2012. We expense the great majority of these costs in the quarter in which they are incurred; however, we expect to benefit from the associated rental revenue stream from such expenditures in the quarters ahead. We are beginning to see the early signs of quarterly rental revenue and utilization lift from the past few quarters of these higher than normal inventory center expenditures. We also had higher SG&A expenses during the quarter from a year ago primarily related to increased sales and operations staffing levels to support recovery of our modular rental business, and the continuing expansion of our portable storage rental business.  Finally, some of these increased costs were offset by higher gross profit on sales of equipment as well as on rental related services from a year ago.

Our portable storage business continued to make good progress during the quarter in building its customer following, increasing booking levels and growing rental revenues, from a year ago.  Rental revenues for the third quarter of 2013 grew by 35% from a year ago, as well as 16% sequentially over the second quarter of 2013.  Income from operations also grew favorably from a year ago. We are continuing to execute on our plans for a larger geographic footprint for our storage container rental business.  We believe that our portable storage business can become a meaningful contributor to McGrath RentCorp's overall earnings in the future.

As I shared with our second quarter 2013 results, we believe that each of our four rental businesses is fundamentally sound, strategically well-positioned and well-capitalized, both financially and operationally, to thrive in the years ahead. Although equipment preparation expenses incurred during the third quarter and year to date are significantly higher than a year ago, we couldn't be more pleased to finally experience the strong modular building market activity that is driving these higher costs in 2013.  To emphasize, these costs are for equipment preparation, including labor and materials to support maintenance, repairs and customer driven modifications. We should benefit from these expenditures in the quarters ahead through rental revenue and utilization growth.  To the extent that we continue to experience elevated inventory center expenses for building preparation, it would likely mean that market demand is staying very strong, and that rental revenue and utilization are recovering further. At some point in the quarters ahead, these inventory center building preparation costs should normalize as we benefit from equipment turns that do not require the extent of work that some of the sitting inventory has over the past year. We should also see favorable gross profit on rents and margin expansion at that time.                                                            

Please keep in mind that McGrath RentCorp has a very strong balance sheet with a funded debt to last twelve months actual adjusted EBITDA ratio of 1.76 to 1, and with current capacity to borrow an additional $249 million under our lines of credit.  We can be very opportunistic in growing our business lines with the availability of such funding. Finally, we are committed to making each of our rental businesses meaningful in size and earnings contribution, and with the best operating metrics by industry.  We continued to make favorable strides during the third quarter of 2013 towards achieving these goals."               

All comparisons presented below are for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 to the quarter ended September 30, 2012 unless otherwise indicated.

Mobile Modular

For the third quarter of 2013, the Company's Mobile Modular division reported a 45% decrease in income from operations to $2.5 million. Rental revenues increased 5% to $21.1 million and other direct costs increased 53% to $10.2 million, which resulted in a decrease in gross profit on rental revenues of 27% to $7.2 million. Sales revenues increased 77% to $10.0 million, with gross profit on sales revenues increasing 54% to $2.0 million. Gross margin on sales revenue decreased to 20% from 23%, primarily due to lower margins on used equipment sales in the third quarter of 2013. Selling and administrative expenses increased 11% to $9.4 million primarily as a result of increased personnel and benefit costs. 

TRS-RenTelco

For the third quarter of 2013, the Company's TRS-RenTelco division reported a 6% decrease in income from operations to $9.5 million.  Rental revenues decreased 3% to $25.7 million. The decrease in rental revenues together with a 4% increase in depreciation expense to $10.1 million, partly offset by a 9% decrease in other direct costs to $3.6 million, resulted in a decrease in gross profit on rental revenues of 7% to $12.1 million.  Sales revenues increased 19% to $6.9 million. Gross profit on sales decreased 5% to $2.7 million, with gross margin decreasing to 39% from 48%, primarily due to lower margins on used equipment sales in the third quarter of 2013.  Selling and administrative expenses decreased 8% to $5.7 million, primarily due to decreased salaries and benefit costs related to the exit of the environmental test equipment business in November 2012.

Adler Tanks

For the third quarter of 2013, the Company's Adler Tanks division reported a 12% increase in income from operations to $8.5 million. Rental revenues increased 13% to $19.1 million, partly offset by a 22% increase in other direct costs to $2.5 million and a 17% increase in depreciation expense to $3.5 million, which resulted in an increase in gross profit on rental revenues of 11% to $13.1 million.  Rental related services revenues increased 39% to $6.5 million, with gross profit on rental related services increasing $1.1 million to $1.8 million.  Selling and administrative expenses increased 29% to $6.4 million, primarily due to increased personnel and benefit costs.

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 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.
