See accompanying notes to consolidated condensed financial statements. 5 Item 1. Financial Statements (continued) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (A) INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the accounting policies described in the 1993 Annual Report and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes which appear in that report. These statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. (B) ACQUISITIONS The Company completed a number of acquisitions during the first nine months of 1994 including a logistics management company and two providers of full service truck leasing, one in the U.S. and one in the United Kingdom. All acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method and were not material in relation to the Company's total assets. The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect the results of operations of the acquired businesses from the acquisition dates. These acquisitions resulted in goodwill of $26.3 million which is being amortized principally over 10 years. Had the acquisitions been consummated on January 1, 1993, revenue and net earnings for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 would not have been materially affected. (C) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On December 7, 1993, the Company completed the spin off of its aviation services subsidiaries into a new public company, Aviall, Inc. Under the terms of the spin off, the Company distributed to common stockholders one share of Aviall, Inc. common stock for each four Ryder System, Inc. common shares owned. The distribution had the effect of reducing the Company's retained earnings by $314 million. Results of the Company's aviation services subsidiaries in 1993 include a one-time after tax charge of $169.4 million and have been reported as discontinued operations. Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1993 for the discontinued aviation services subsidiaries was $288.3 million and $853.6 million, respectively. (D) ACCOUNTING CHANGES Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." As a result, a pretax charge of $41 million ($25 million after tax) was recorded as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle to establish a liability for the present value of expected future benefits attributed to employees' service rendered prior to January 1, 1993. The Company also adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," effective January 1, 1993. (E) INCREASE IN THE CORPORATE FEDERAL INCOME TAX RATE On August 10, 1993, legislation was enacted which increased the corporate federal income tax rate from 34% to 35%, retroactive to January 1, 1993. The increased tax expense from the new legislation recorded in the third quarter of 1993 totaled $9.4 million ($0.12 per common share), with $7.8 million relating to a one-time adjustment to accumulated deferred income tax balances. 6 KPMG PEAT MARWICK LLP CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS One Biscayne Tower Telephone 305-358-2300 Suite 2900 Telecopier 305-577-0544 2 South Biscayne Boulevard Miami, FL 33131 Independent Auditors' Review Report The Board of Directors and Shareholders Ryder System, Inc.: We have reviewed the consolidated condensed balance sheet of Ryder System, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1994, the consolidated condensed statements of earnings for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993. These consolidated condensed financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated condensed financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Ryder System, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993, and the related consolidated statements of earnings and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 7, 1994, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 1993, is fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. As discussed in the notes to the consolidated condensed financial statements, Ryder System, Inc. and subsidiaries changed its method of accounting for income taxes and for postretirement benefits other than pensions in 1993. KPMG PEAT MARWICK LLP Miami, Florida October 19, 1994 7 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition -- Three and nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company's earnings from continuing operations before income taxes were $71 million in the third quarter of 1994, compared with $57 million in last year's third quarter. Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes in the first nine months of 1994 were $196 million, compared with $160 million in the first nine months of 1993. Earnings in both the third quarter and the first nine months of 1994 benefited primarily from higher revenue, improved margins in both commercial and consumer truck rental, and higher gains on sales of vehicles. Higher vehicle shipments and improved operating efficiencies in Automotive Carriers also contributed to the increase in earnings. Earnings from continuing operations after taxes in the third quarter of 1994 were $42 million, or $0.53 per common share, compared with $23 million, or $0.30 per common share, in the third quarter of 1993. The 1993 quarter included the impact of an increase in the corporate federal income tax rate from 34% to 35%, retroactive to January 1, 1993, which resulted in additional tax expense of $9 million, or $0.12 per common share, of which $8 million related to a one-time adjustment to accumulated deferred income tax balances. Earnings from continuing operations after taxes in the first nine months of 1994 were $116 million, or $1.47 per common share, compared with $84 million, or $1.04 per common share, in the first nine months of 1993. The Company's effective tax rate for continuing operations was 41.1% in the first nine months of 1994 compared with 47.5% in the same period last year. The change was due primarily to the impact of the 1993 corporate federal income tax rate increase. The Company reported a net loss in the first nine months of 1993 of $96 million, or $1.28 per common share, which included a first quarter after tax charge of $25 million related to a change in accounting for postretirement benefits, a second quarter after tax charge of $169 million to restructure the discontinued aviation segment, which was spun off in December 1993, and the third quarter income tax adjustment. In the third quarter of 1994 the Company experienced accelerated revenue growth in each of its major product lines compared with the first half of the year. Revenue increased 14% and 10% in the third quarter and the first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods last year. In Vehicle Leasing & Services, revenue increased 16% and 12% in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods last year while Automotive Carriers revenue increased 6% and 2% in the same periods. Operating expense increased 14% and 9% in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods in 1993 due primarily to higher revenue combined with increased dedicated logistics operating costs and higher spending on sales and marketing and reengineering programs. Depreciation expense (net of gains) in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994 increased 12% and 10%, respectively, compared with the same periods in 1993. A larger vehicle fleet as a result of strong lease sales and rental fleet expansion in selected markets produced most of these increases. These increases in depreciation expense were partially offset by gains on vehicle sales, which increased $4 million and $12 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods in 1993. Higher third quarter and nine month gains resulted from increases in the average gain per vehicle and number of vehicles sold. Interest expense increased $6 million and $12 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods in 1993. The increases in both 1994 periods were due primarily to higher average outstanding debt levels in 1994, resulting from the growth in the vehicle fleet, compared with average outstanding debt relating to continuing operations in 1993. Higher interest rates on the Company's debt in the third quarter of 1994 also contributed to the increase. 8 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition (continued) -- Three and nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 In June 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 116, "Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made." The statement, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994, requires that promises to make contributions be recognized in the financial statements as an expense and a liability when a promise is made. Currently, contributions are recognized as an expense in the period made. The Company estimates that the adoption of the statement in the first quarter of 1995 will result in an after tax charge to earnings of approximately $6 million, or $0.08 per common share, to record the cumulative effect of the change in accounting. VEHICLE LEASING & SERVICES Revenue increased 16% and 12% in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods in 1993. Revenue from full service truck leasing, the division's largest product line, increased 11% in the third quarter and 6% in the first nine months of 1994 compared with the same periods last year. Revenue benefited from an increase in new lease sales combined with the impact of two acquisitions made in mid-1994. Revenue from commercial truck rental increased 24% and 22% in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods in 1993, reflecting higher demand in both periods. Revenue from consumer truck rental increased 18% in the third quarter and 20% in the first nine months of 1994 compared with the same periods last year, primarily as a result of higher demand for both local and long-distance rentals. To satisfy the higher demand, the Company increased the fleet size in both rental product lines in the first nine months of 1994 over 1993 levels. Both rental product lines continue to benefit from the effects of strong economic conditions within the U.S. Dedicated logistics revenue increased 26% and 17% in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with the same periods last year due to higher levels of new business sales made to both existing and new customers. Revenue from the division's public transportation services businesses increased 7% in the third quarter and 5% in the first nine months of 1994 compared with the same periods last year, due primarily to several new student transportation contracts. Vehicle Leasing & Services earned pretax profits of $68 million in the third quarter of 1994 compared with $59 million in the third quarter of 1993. For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, pretax earnings were $179 million compared with $158 million last year. Margin (revenue less direct operating expenses, depreciation and interest expense) for full service truck leasing was higher in the third quarter and slightly higher in the first nine months of 1994 compared with the same periods last year as a result of higher revenue. However, margin as a percentage of revenue declined in both 1994 periods as a result of lower prices on new leases compared with prices on those expiring, combined with higher interest expense. Margin and margin as a percentage of revenue for commercial and consumer truck rental increased in both the third quarter and first nine months of 1994 compared with the same periods last year, reflecting higher fleet utilization and a larger fleet. Consumer truck rental margin was also affected by lower maintenance costs as a percentage of revenue, largely as a result of a newer fleet and a change in the fleet mix, somewhat offset by higher vehicle liability expense. Dedicated logistics margin dollars increased slightly during the third quarter and first nine months of 1994 compared with the same periods last year while margin as a percentage of revenue was lower in both 1994 periods. Dedicated logistics margins were impacted by higher operating costs on existing contracts combined with new business start-up costs. Third quarter and year-to-date margins for the division's public transportation services were higher compared with the same periods in 1993 due to higher revenues. For the division as a whole, pretax profits in both 1994 periods benefited from higher overall margin dollars and increased vehicle gains, partially offset by higher strategic spending on sales and marketing, reengineering, and logistics and other systems technology. The division has made a significant investment in these strategic initiatives over the past two years, particularly in its commercial leasing and logistics businesses. In fact, within dedicated logistics, strategic spending in these areas more than offset margin growth in both 1994 periods. These strategic spending initiatives are expected to continue to have an impact, particularly within dedicated logistics, as the Company strives to stimulate growth and make its operations more customer responsive and efficient in the future. 9 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition (continued) -- Three and nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 AUTOMOTIVE CARRIERS Revenue in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994 increased 6% and 2%, respectively, compared with last year's third quarter and first nine months. Higher revenue for both periods in 1994 reflects an increase in the number of units shipped, somewhat offset by a decline in the average length of haul. Shipments of General Motors vehicles were higher in the third quarter and about the same in the first nine months of 1994 compared with the same periods last year. The number of vehicles shipped for other manufacturers was 17% and 15% higher in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, respectively, compared with last year. The overall increase in vehicles shipped in 1994 was a result of higher vehicle production in North America. Automotive Carriers pretax earnings were $10 million in the third quarter of 1994, compared with $5 million in the third quarter of 1993. For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, pretax earnings were $35 million compared with $21 million in the first nine months of last year. Pretax earnings benefited primarily from higher revenue, improved operating efficiencies, a fourth quarter 1993 organizational streamlining and lower depreciation expense resulting from an increase in the age of the fleet. OTHER Other, which is comprised primarily of corporate administrative costs, reported net expenses in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994 of $6 million and $18 million, respectively, compared with net expenses of $7 million and $19 million in the same periods last year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Total capital expenditures in the first nine months of 1994 were $1.3 billion, compared with $926 million in the first nine months of 1993. Capital expenditures for full service truck leasing and commercial truck rental increased $245 million and $71 million, respectively, in the first nine months of 1994 compared with the same period last year due primarily to higher new lease sales and a strategy to expand within certain rental market segments. Consumer truck rental capital expenditures decreased $18 million in the first nine months of 1994 compared with last year as a result of the planned timing of the consumer fleet replacement program in 1993. Capital expenditures in all other product lines (including expenditures on operating property and equipment) increased $78 million in the first nine months of 1994 compared with the first nine months of 1993, reflecting higher expenditures on revenue earning equipment in the Company's public transportation services businesses and increased expenditures on facilities and systems technology and development. During the first nine months of 1994, the Company made expenditures of $95 million on strategic acquisitions including substantially all the assets of LogiCorp, Inc., a logistics management company, Lend Lease Trucks Inc., a provider of full service truck leasing, contract maintenance, truck rental and dedicated contract carriage in the U.S., and Unilink Contract Hire Limited, a provider of full service truck leasing and truck rental in the United Kingdom. The Company will continue to evaluate strategic acquisition opportunities as a means of strengthening its core businesses. 10 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition (continued) -- Three and nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 Cash flow from operating activities in the first nine months of 1994 was $546 million, compared with $563 million in the same period last year. The decrease in cash flow resulted primarily from an increase in several working capital items, partially offset by improved earnings and an increase in depreciation expense. The most significant working capital change impacting comparisons was an increase in receivables primarily as a result of an increase in revenue. Cash flow from continuing operating activities plus asset sales as a percentage of capital expenditures was 57% in the first nine months of 1994, compared with 79% in the same period last year. The decrease in the percentage for the first nine months of 1994 was due to a significant increase in capital expenditures required primarily as a result of higher new lease sales. Total debt at September 30, 1994 was $1.8 billion, compared with $1.5 billion at December 31, 1993. During the first nine months of 1994, the Company issued $247 million of medium-term unsecured notes and made $118 million of scheduled unsecured note payments. U.S. commercial paper outstanding at the end of the third quarter of 1994 was $227 million, compared with $84 million at December 31, 1993. The Company's debt to equity ratio at September 30, 1994, was 167%, compared with 155% at December 31, 1993. As part of its financing program, the Company periodically enters into sale and leaseback agreements for revenue earning equipment that are accounted for as operating leases. Proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions were $300 million during the first nine months of 1994. The Company did not enter into any sale-leaseback transactions during 1993.

EX-11 2 STATEMENT RE: COMPUTATION OF PER SHARE EARNINGS 1 Exhibit 11 Statement re Computation of Per Share Earnings Primary earnings per share are computed by dividing earnings available to common shares by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. For purposes of computing primary earnings per share, common equivalent shares include the average number of common shares issuable upon the exercise of all employee stock options and awards and outstanding employee stock subscriptions, if dilutive, less the common shares which could have been purchased at the average market price during the period, with the assumed proceeds, including "windfall" tax benefits, from the exercise of the options, awards and subscriptions. Fully-diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing the earnings available to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares, common equivalent shares and common shares assumed converted from potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. For purposes of computing fully-diluted earnings per share, common equivalent shares are computed on a basis comparable to that for primary earnings per share, except that common shares are assumed to be purchased at the market price at the end of the period, if dilutive.
