EXHIBIT 99.1
McGrath RentCorp Announces Results for First Quarter 2015
Rental revenues increase 5%
EPS decreases 13% to $0.26 for the quarter
LIVERMORE, Calif., April 30, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McGrath RentCorp (Nasdaq:MGRC) (the "Company"), a diversified business-to-business rental company, today announced total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, of $90.2 million, an increase of 3%, compared to $87.6 million in the first quarter of 2014. The Company reported net income of $6.8 million, or $0.26 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2015, compared to net income of $7.9 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2014.
Dennis Kakures, President and CEO of McGrath RentCorp, made the following comments regarding these results and future expectations:
"Despite the impact of both seasonal and cyclical headwinds for our electronic test equipment and liquid & solid containment rental businesses during the first quarter, our recovering modular rental division drove our year over year 5% increase in Company-wide rental revenues. This is the twentieth consecutive year over year quarterly rental revenue increase. We are disappointed in the $0.04 reduction in EPS for the quarter from a year ago; however, we are early in the year, with many moving parts and dynamics associated with our different businesses that contribute to our annual earnings. We look forward to improving upon these results as the year progresses.
Modular division-wide rental revenues for the quarter increased $4.9 million, or 23%, to $26.4 million from a year ago. This is the eighth consecutive year over year quarterly rental revenue increase. During the first quarter, we experienced a 21% increase in division-wide year over year first month's rental revenue bookings for modular buildings with a 44% increase in California and 9% outside of the state. First quarter 2015 modular division average and ending utilization reached 74.2% and 74.5%, respectively, an increase from 69.9% and 69.4% a year ago. Modular division EBIT, or income from operations, for the quarter increased to $4.3 million, or by 47%, from the same period a year ago. EBIT margin increased to 11% from 9% a year ago. This favorable increase in EBIT profit and margin was driven primarily by higher rental revenues and rental revenue margin expansion. Gross margin on rental revenues increased to 47% for the quarter from 43% a year ago. Modular division EBIT results also benefited from higher profit on rental related services, offset by higher SG&A expenses and lower profit on equipment sales from last year's quarter.
Rental revenues at Adler Tank Rentals, our liquid and solid containment tank and box division, declined by $0.2 million for the quarter, or less than 1% to $17.0 million from a year ago. Average utilization and total original cost of rental equipment were 61.1% and $300 million for the quarter compared to 61.0% and $280 million a year ago. However, average monthly rental rates slid to 3.08% from 3.34%, or by 8% from a year ago. The marked reduction in rental rates is primarily due to lower crude oil prices and the significant decline in wellhead related drilling and completions activity, resulting in highly competitive upstream rental market conditions, in particular for 21K tanks. The oversupply of 21K tanks relative to demand in the oilfields is also putting downward pressure on rental pricing in midstream, downstream and other market verticals. Adler Tank Rentals' first quarter results were also impacted negatively by seasonal cold weather in both the Midwest and Northeast geographies. We remain cautious in our outlook for our liquid and solid containment rental business for the remainder of 2015 due to the current excess supply of 21K tanks in the marketplace. EBIT for the quarter decreased $0.5 million, or 8%, to $5.1 million from a year ago. The higher percentage decrease in EBIT at 8% as compared to rental revenues at 1% for the quarter was primarily a result of depreciation expense rising to $4.0 million, or by 8% year over year.
Rental revenues for TRS-RenTelco, our electronics division, declined by $1.6 million for the quarter, or 7%, to $22.1 million from a year ago. The year over year reduction in rental revenues was driven by significantly lower communications test equipment business activity. We anticipate that our communications test equipment booking levels will show improvement beginning in the second quarter. General purpose test equipment rental activity which had been slow throughout 2014 improved in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period a year ago. EBIT for the quarter declined by $1.8 million, or 26%, from the same period in 2014. The reduction in rental revenue of $1.6 million was the primary contributor to lower year over year EBIT as higher equipment processing and SG&A costs were mostly offset by higher profit on equipment sales and lower equipment depreciation expense. The higher percentage drop in year over year EBIT at 26% compared to rental revenues at 7% is primarily due to equipment depreciation expense typically making up between 70 and 75% of direct rental costs. In other words, within any given quarter, we only have a limited amount of variable cost associated with rental revenue generation that can easily and responsibly be taken out of the business. Average equipment utilization was 59.9% for the first quarter, compared to 56.8% for the same period in 2014. Average rental rates for the first quarter of 2015 declined by 11% to 4.66% from 5.22% a year ago. This is primarily due to the on-rent equipment mix increasing for general purpose and decreasing for communications test equipment. General purpose test equipment has longer depreciable lives and lower rental rates than communications test equipment.
Mobile Modular Portable Storage made good progress during the first quarter in building its customer following, increasing booking levels and growing rental revenues from a year ago. First month's rent booking levels and rental revenues for the first quarter grew by 57% and 44% respectively, from the same period a year ago. Individual branch, as well as overall business profitability is continuing to grow. We are targeting further geographic expansion during 2015. We are on track towards building a meaningful-sized storage container rental business with attractive operating metrics.
In examining our past years' quarterly earnings results there are a variety of seasonality factors with our different rental businesses that tend to put downward pressure on the Company's earnings in the first half of the fiscal year, and even more so, in the first quarter (as more fully described in our Form 10-Q Risk Factors). In fact, over the past decade the Company's average percentage of annual EPS for both the first quarter and first half of our fiscal year represent 21% and 43%, respectively. Most recently, our first quarter of 2014 was only 17% of total EPS for the year. When occasional cyclical forces are combined with seasonal factors in a given period, it can exacerbate downward pressure on quarterly EPS results. In particular, for the first quarter of 2015, our results were impacted negatively by not only seasonal factors, but also in our electronics rental business by a slowdown in the deployment of new or enhanced communication networks, as well as in our liquid and solid containment rental business by the precipitous decline in crude oil prices entering the year. While assessing the full year impact of these cyclical forces to our earnings is difficult, we expect improved earnings through the balance of the year, led by recovery in our modular rental division and through reducing expenses compared to our beginning of year internal forecast. We have thoroughly reviewed our operating plans for 2015 and have identified various cost adjustments that can be executed upon with limited impact to our top line rental revenue growth objectives. In turn, we are reconfirming our full year guidance range of $1.75 to $1.95 per diluted share."
All comparisons presented below are for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 unless otherwise indicated.
MOBILE MODULAR
For the first quarter of 2015, the Company's Mobile Modular division reported a 47% increase in income from operations to $4.3 million. Rental revenues increased 23% to $26.4 million, depreciation expense increased 19% to $4.6 million and other direct costs increased 12% to $9.5 million, which resulted in an increase in gross profit on rental revenues of 34% to $12.3 million. Rental related services revenues increased 24% to $9.1 million, with gross profit on rental related services revenues increasing 17% to $2.3 million. Sales revenues decreased 30% to $3.3 million with gross profit on sales revenues decreasing 31% to $0.9 million, primarily due to lower used equipment sales revenues and flat gross margins of 29% in 2015 and 2014. Selling and administrative expenses increased 17% to $11.4 million primarily due to increased employee headcount, salaries and benefit costs.
TRS-RENTELCO
For the first quarter of 2015, the Company's TRS-RenTelco division reported a 26% decrease in income from operations to $5.2 million. Rental revenues decreased 7% to $22.1 million. The decrease in rental revenues and a 21% increase in other direct costs to $3.4 million, partly offset by a 2% decrease in depreciation to $10.2 million, resulted in a decrease in gross profit on rental revenues of 19% to $8.6 million. Sales revenues increased 4% to $4.9 million. Gross profit on sales revenues increased 20% to $2.4 million, primarily due to higher gross margins on new and used equipment sales revenues in the first quarter of 2015. Selling and administrative expenses increased 1% to $6.1 million.
ADLER TANKS
For the first quarter of 2015, the Company's Adler Tanks division reported an 8% decrease in income from operations to $5.1 million. Rental revenues decreased 1% to $17.0 million. Other direct costs were flat at $2.3 million and depreciation expense increased 8% to $4.0 million, which resulted in a decrease in gross profit on rental revenues of 4% to $10.7 million. Rental related services revenues increased 2% to $5.6 million, with gross profit on rental related services increasing 5% to $1.2 million. Selling and administrative expenses were flat at $6.9 million.

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.
