Company delivers 66% year-over-year revenue growth with record profitability at new plant, raises full year guidance

 

Secured ~3,000 orders, including first tank car conversion order

 

CHICAGO, August 12, 2024 – FreightCar America, Inc. (NASDAQ: RAIL) (“FreightCar America” or the “Company”), a diversified manufacturer and supplier of railroad freight cars, railcar parts and components, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

 

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights

 

Revenues of $147.4 million on 1,159 railcar deliveries, an increase of 66% compared to revenues of $88.6 million on 760 railcar deliveries in the second quarter of 2023
Gross margin of 12.5% with gross profit of $18.4 million, compared to gross margin of 14.6% with gross profit of $13.0 million in the second quarter of 2023
Net Income of $8.2 million, or $0.11 per diluted share and Adjusted net income of $6.3 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, accounting primarily for a non-cash item associated with a change in fair market value of warrant liability and a cash item associated with a litigation settlement
Adjusted EBITDA of $12.1 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2023
Delivered its 10,000th railcar manufactured at the Castaños facility
Received net orders for approximately 3,000 railcars within the quarter, including a multi-year order to convert over 1,000 tanks cars

 

“We are very pleased to report our strongest performance yet for revenue, gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA since opening our state-of-the-art facility in 2020. Importantly, these results follow the previously reported 99% growth in revenue and 192% growth in Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter,” commented Nick Randall, President and Chief Executive Officer of FreightCar America. “Our multiyear turnaround has been a tremendous success, and our focus is on driving growth across our diversified product portfolio as we continue to maximize efficiencies across our value streams.”

 

Randall continued, “We built a world-class manufacturing campus that is both efficient and flexible. Our customers see this as evidenced by our largest order intake since starting the facility and our recently announced milestone of shipping our 10,000th railcar manufactured at the campus. Furthermore, and consistent with our growth plans, we are pleased to also announce that our order backlog now includes tank cars. Tank cars represent a very important part of the market and are fully aligned with our growth strategy. In summary, we are pleased with the quarter, the year-to-date, and especially with where we see ourselves headed.”

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements relating to our expected financial performance, financial condition, and/or future business prospects, events and/or plans that are “forward-looking statements” as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the


Exhibit 99.1

date of this press release. Our actual results may differ materially from the results described in or anticipated by our forward-looking statements due to certain risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties relate to, among other things, the cyclical nature of our business; adverse economic and market conditions including inflation; material disruption in the movement of rail traffic for deliveries; fluctuating costs of raw materials including steel and aluminum; delays in the delivery of raw materials; our ability to maintain relationships with our suppliers of railcar components; our reliance upon a small number of customers that represent a large percentage of our sales; the variable purchase patterns of our customers and the timing of completion, delivery and customer acceptance of orders; the highly competitive nature of our industry; the risk of lack of acceptance of our new railcar offerings, and other competitive factors. The factors listed above are not exhaustive. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We expressly disclaim any duty to provide updates to any forward-looking statements made in this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This press release includes measures not derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net loss and Adjusted EPS. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure derived in accordance with GAAP and may also be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.

(1) EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry. In addition, our management uses EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance. The calculation of EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending. These items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall business performance. EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before the following charges:

 

(a)
This adjustment removes the non-cash (income) expense associated with the change in fair market value of the Company’s Warrant liability.
(b)
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash loss on debt extinguishment of its term loan.
(c)
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a litigation settlement related to a dispute with a former lessee of our railcars.
(d)
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a gain on sale of railcars available for lease related to its leased railcar fleet.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash charges and other special items that affect the comparability of results in past quarters. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

b)
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash loss on debt extinguishment of its term loan.
c)
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a litigation settlement related to a dispute with a former lessee of our railcars.
d)
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a gain on sale of railcars available for lease related to its leased railcar fleet.
