EX-99.1 2 d88072ex99-1.txt PRESS RELEASE 1 EXHIBIT 99(1) TRINITY INDUSTRIES, INC. NEWS RELEASE CONTACT: Neil Shoop Treasurer 214-589-8561 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TRINITY INDUSTRIES REPORTS OPERATING RESULTS FOR FISCAL 2001 DALLAS - May 23, 2001 - Trinity Industries, Inc., (NYSE:TRN) today reported financial results for the full year and fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, the Company reported net income of $36.5 million (before unusual charges), or 97 cents a diluted share, on revenues of $1.90 billion. This compares with net income of $165.5 million, or $4.15 a diluted share, on revenues of $2.74 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000. After unusual charges of $173.3 million ($110.9 million after tax), the Company reported a Fiscal 2001 net loss of $74.4 million, or $1.98 a diluted share. The unusual charges recorded in Fiscal 2001 related primarily to restructuring the Company's railcar operations, various investment and asset write-downs, and severance costs. For the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2001, the Company reported a net loss of $4.0 million (before unusual charges), or 11 cents a share, on revenues of $418.7 million. This compares with net income of $33.9 million, or 87 cents a diluted share, on revenues 2 of $646.4 million in the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year. After unusual charges of $55.8 million ($35.7 million after tax), the Company reported a net loss for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2001 of $39.7 million, or $1.08 a diluted share. The unusual charges recorded in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2001 include previously announced unusual charges of approximately $25 million plus approximately $16 million in additional charges related to plant closings and $14.8 million in litigation reserves related to an adverse jury verdict also announced earlier. "The actions we have taken during fiscal 2001 to confront the declining economy and refocus our resources on our core businesses as indicated in previous announcements should strengthen us to meet the challenges of fiscal 2002," said Timothy R. Wallace, Trinity's chairman, president and CEO. "The North American railcar market is not showing signs of recovery at this point. Pricing for railcars remains very competitive with a large portion of our customers electing to lease cars rather than purchase them. This coincides with our decision to expand our leasing business." "Fortunately Trinity's Construction Products and Inland Barge businesses are gaining momentum. Since the beginning of April, Trinity's construction related businesses have continued to improve their earnings as a result of a return to more normal weather conditions. Our barge manufacturing business is improving their backlog of barges by continuing to receive orders at a steady pace. Trinity's U.S. industrial business has stabilized from an operational point of view. We are pleased that our other business groups are able to provide some earnings coverage during the steep decline in demand for new railcars in North America. Until we see more improvement in the North American 3 rail market, we believe it is reasonable to expect that our net income in fiscal 2002 will be comparable to our fiscal 2001 net income (before unusual charges)," Wallace said. Trinity Industries, Inc., with headquarters in Dallas, Texas, is one of the nation's leading diversified industrial companies. In this release, Trinity is reporting five principal business segments: the Railcar Group, the Inland Barge Group, the Parts & Services Group, the Construction Products Group, and the Industrial Group which is a change from previous reporting.
