PATRIOT TRANSPORTATION HOLDING, INC. ANNOUNCES
RESULTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL YEAR 2018
Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. (NASDAQ-PATI) Jacksonville, Florida;
July 26, 2018 -
Third Quarter Operating Results
The Company reported net income of $1,086,000, or $.33 per share, compared to
net income of $456,000, or $.14 per share, in the same quarter last year.
Total revenues for the quarter were $29,404,000, up $1,300,000 from the same
quarter last year. Transportation revenues (excluding fuel surcharges) were
$26,445,000, up $170,000 or 0.6%. Miles increased by 288,000, or 3.0%, to
9,812,000 versus 9,524,000 in the same quarter last year. During the second
and third quarters of last fiscal year we lost sizeable pieces of business
with two large customers most of which was shorter run, higher revenue per
mile business. Since that time, we added back a meaningful portion of that
lost business with longer run, lower revenue per mile business. As a result,
our overall average haul length has increased by 5.9% and our transportation
revenue per mile has decreased by 2.5%.
Compensation and benefits decreased $142,000, or 4 cents per mile, mainly
due to a one-time accrual of $264,000 in the same quarter last year resulting
from the award of two additional vacation days for drivers. Gross fuel expense
was up $1,001,000 while fuel surcharges were up $1,130,000. Other operating
expenses were up $113,000 due mainly to increased business in areas with tolls
and maintenance at some of our terminals. Depreciation expense was down
$212,000 as a result of right sizing our fleet in the first and second
quarters. Corporate expenses were down by $192,000 due mainly to lower legal
fees and corporate management changes that occurred at the beginning of fiscal
2018. Gain on sale of assets increased $80,000 as we sold excess equipment,
including excess trailers. Total cost of operations improved by $.03 cents per
mile over last year's 3rd quarter.
As a result of the increased miles and revenues coupled with the improved cost
of operations per mile, operating profit this quarter was $1,353,000 compared
to operating profit of $534,000 in the same quarter last year. Operating ratio
was 95.4 this quarter versus a 98.1 in the same quarter last year.
First Nine Months Operating Results for Fiscal year 2018.
The Company reported net income of $4,490,000, or $1.35 per share, compared to
net income of $1,628,000, or $.49 per share in the same period last year. This
year's first nine months' net income included $3,041,000, or $.92 per share,
due to a deferred tax benefit resulting from revaluing the company's net
deferred tax liabilities per the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.
Total revenues for the first nine months were $85,284,000, up $1,029,000 from
the same period last year. Transportation revenues (excluding fuel surcharges)
were $77,391,000, down $1,836,000 or 2.3%. Miles declined by 291,000, or 1%,
to 28,418,000 versus 28,709,000 in the same period last year.
Compensation and benefits increased $235,000 as a result of last summer's
driver pay increase. Net fuel expense (i.e. gross fuel expenses less fuel
surcharges) decreased by $1,126,000 due to fewer miles driven and higher fuel
surcharges due to higher average diesel prices. Insurance and losses were up
$331,000 due mainly to higher liability and medical claims during the first
half of the fiscal year. Depreciation expense was down $518,000 as a result
of right sizing our fleet. SG&A was up $191,000 due mainly to severance
expense, reorganizing our IT department and higher advertising costs related
to hiring drivers. Corporate expenses were down $530,000 due mainly to a
decrease in legal fees, consulting, and corporate management changes that
occurred at the beginning of fiscal 2018.
As a result, operating profit was $1,805,000 compared to $2,107,000 in the
same period last year. Operating ratio was 97.9 versus a 97.5 last year.
Summary and Outlook
Currently, the customer demand significantly exceeds the tanker industry's
capacity in most markets in which we operate. Every day we are allocating our
resources to fulfill the needs of those customers who are willing to partner
with us on both pricing and efficiently managing the day to day operation of
our business. Driver hiring and retention remains our greatest challenge. Our
turnover rate during this quarter was 82.4% versus 75.3% in the same quarter
last year. We continue to experience a positive trend in driver productivity
as we saw our average transportation revenue per company driver climb by
4.2% this quarter versus the same quarter last year. During the quarter we
made significant process changes on both the recruiting and hiring side as
well as the retention side. We are optimistic these changes will have
positive impacts but will monitor the results closely and make changes where
necessary. We also made significant progress on our IT overhaul with a goal
to improve our employees' and customers' experience. The current quarter's
higher revenues and lower operational costs per mile led to improved bottom
line results but we are not satisfied and will continue to push for further
improvement on both the top and bottom line. We remain debt free and have
increased cash from $11 million at the beginning of the fiscal year to
$17 million at the close of the 3rd quarter.
