NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of the Business

Triton International Limited ("Triton" or the "Company"), through its subsidiaries, leases intermodal transportation equipment, primarily maritime containers, and provides maritime container management services through a worldwide network of service subsidiaries, third-party depots and other facilities. The majority of the Company's business is derived from leasing its containers to shipping line customers through a variety of long-term and short-term contractual lease arrangements. The Company also sells containers from its equipment leasing fleet as well as containers specifically acquired for resale from third parties. The Company's registered office is located in Bermuda.

On July 12, 2016, Triton Container International Limited ("TCIL") and TAL International Group, Inc. ("TAL") combined in an all-stock merger (the "Merger"). Under the terms of the transaction agreement, TCIL and TAL combined under a newly formed company, Triton.

The consideration for the transaction was paid with Triton common shares. TAL stockholders received one Triton common share in exchange for each TAL common share and TCIL shareholders received approximately 0.8 Triton common shares for each TCIL common share. The fair value of the consideration, or the purchase price, was approximately $510.2 million. This amount was derived based on the fair value of the shares issued to TAL stockholders on July 12, 2016 when the closing share price was $15.28 per share.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

The interim consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017, the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, included herein, was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the Company’s annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2017 and its consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. The financial data and the other financial information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements related to these periods are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other future annual or interim period.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include TAL’s results of operations after July 12, 2016, the Merger completion date. The consolidated financial statements presented for periods prior to the Merger represent the historical financial statements of TCIL, the accounting acquirer in the Merger.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on March 17, 2017. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain changes in presentation have been made to conform the prior period presentation to current period reporting.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates in connection with purchase accounting, residual value, depreciable lives, value of assets held for sale, and estimates related to the bankruptcy of a lessee (including amounts for recoveries under insurance policies as described below).

Lessee Bankruptcy in 2016

On August 31, 2016, Hanjin Shipping Co. ("Hanjin"), a lessee of the Company, filed for court protection and immediately began a liquidation process. At that time, the Company had approximately 87,000 container units on lease to Hanjin with a net book value of $243.3 million. The Company recorded a charge of $29.7 million during the third quarter ended September 30, 2016 comprised of bad debt expense and a charge for costs not expected to be recovered due to deductibles in our credit insurance policies. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had gained control or negotiated the release of 93% of its containers previously leased to Hanjin of which approximately 82% are now leased to other customers or have been sold.

The Company maintained credit insurance to cover the value of such containers that are unrecoverable, costs incurred to recover containers and a portion of lost lease revenue (limited up to six months or until a container is recovered, repaired, and available for re-lease) all subject to a deductible. The insurance policies did not cover its pre-default receivables. The Company has collected an advance partial payment from its insurance providers of $45 million. The Company currently believes that any further losses will be recoverable under the insurance policies, subject to deductible limits.

Pro Forma Disclosure

The following table provides the unaudited pro forma results of operations, which gives effect to the Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2016. The pro forma results of operations reflects adjustments (i) to leasing revenues for the amortization of the excess of the fair value of operating lease contracts over the current market rate (ii) to adjust depreciation and amortization expense resulting from the write-down of leasing equipment to fair value and (iii) to eliminate non-recurring charges that were incurred in connection with the transactions including acquisition-related share-based compensation, transaction costs related to legal, accounting, and other advisory fees, and transaction costs related to retention and benefit costs.

The unaudited pro forma results do not include any anticipated synergies or other expected benefits of the Merger. The unaudited pro forma financial information presented below is not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have been achieved had the Merger occurred as of January 1, 2016 (in thousands):

	Three months ended, September 30, 2016			Nine months ended September 30, 2016
Total leasing revenues	$	261,977		$	815,256
Net (loss) income attributable to shareholders	$	(2,377	)	$	9,996

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company's equipment lease and trade receivables subject it to potential credit risk. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon an evaluation of each customer's financial condition and credit history. Evaluations of the financial condition and associated credit risk of customers are performed on an ongoing basis. The Company's two largest customers CMA CGM and Mediterranean Shipping Company, accounted for 19% and 14%, respectively, of the Company's lease billings during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Updates

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. ASU No. 2016-09 ("ASU No. 2016-09") Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Under this ASU, all excess tax benefits and deficiencies related to employee share-based compensation will be recognized within the provision for income taxes rather than additional paid-in capital. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2017 which resulted in the recognition of excess tax benefits for prior periods as a reduction in our Net deferred income tax liability account and an increase in accumulated earnings in the amount of $6.6 million. The Company has not recognized any excess tax benefits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. In addition, the adoption of this ASU had no impact on the consolidated financial statements with respect to forfeited awards since historically the Company’s forfeitures have been minimal and therefore had not estimated a forfeitures rate.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) that replaces existing lease accounting guidance. Among other things, in the amendments in ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date:

• A lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and

• A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.

The accounting that will be applied by lessors under ASC 842 is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new lease guidance will become effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), amending previous updates regarding this topic. Leasing revenue recognition is specifically excluded from this ASU, and therefore, the new standard will only apply to equipment trading revenues and sales of leasing equipment. The Company expects the impact of adoption of this ASU to be minimal since the majority of its sales contracts are for containers and do not contain multiple elements. The effective date is interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard allows for either “full retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or “modified retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. The Company plans to adopt the standard on its required effective date of January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expect the impact of this standard to be material to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance affects trade receivables and net investments in leases. The guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information from past events, including historical experiences, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectability. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Different components of the guidance require modified retrospective and/or prospective adoption. Based on the composition of the Company's receivables, current market conditions, and historical credit loss activity, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Receipts and Cash Payments. The updated amendment provides guidance as to where certain cash flow items are presented, including, debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory. The ASU eliminates the deferral of the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers other than inventory. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company currently presents changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents in the financing section of its statement of cash flows. The new guidance will not impact financial results, but will result in a change in the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents within the statement of cash flows. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company currently plans to adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 using the retrospective approach.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. For public companies, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides clarification on when modification accounting should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This ASU does not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should only be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions, or award classification and would not be required if the changes are considered non-substantive. This ASU is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is required to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 changes the recognition and presentation requirements of hedge accounting, including: eliminating the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness; and presenting all items that affect earnings in the same income statement line item as the hedged item. The ASU also provides new alternatives for: applying hedge accounting to additional hedging strategies; measuring the hedged item in fair value hedges of interest rate risk; reducing the cost and complexity of applying hedge accounting by easing the requirements for effectiveness testing, hedge documentation and application of the critical terms match method; and reducing the risk of material error correction if a company applies the shortcut method inappropriately. This ASU is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842) which provides additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 2—Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value represents the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company utilizes the following fair value hierarchy when selecting inputs for its valuation techniques, with the highest priority given to Level 1:

• Level 1—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

• Level 2—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on observable inputs such as (i) quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or (iii) model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.

• Level 3—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are derived from valuation techniques based on one or more significant unobservable inputs.

The Company’s debt fair value was measured using Level 2 inputs. The carrying value and debt fair value are summarized in the following table (in thousands):

	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Liabilities
Total debt(1) - carrying value	$	6,864,816	$	6,415,664
Total debt(1) - fair value	$	6,919,303	$	6,316,229

______________________________________________________________________________

(1) Excludes unamortized deferred financing costs of $42.7 million and $20.0 million and purchase price debt adjustments of $32.0 million and $42.2 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The Company’s equipment held for sale fair value is measured using Level 2 inputs and is based on recent sales prices and other factors. Equipment held for sale is recorded at the lower of fair value or carrying value and an impairment charge is recorded when the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The following table summarizes the portion of the Company’s equipment held for sale measured at fair value and the cumulative impairment charges recorded to net gain (loss) on sale of leasing equipment through the periods indicated below (in thousands):

	September 30, 2017			December 31, 2016

Note 2—Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

The Company recognized net impairment charges of $0.3 million and net impairment reversals of $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. There were $13.2 million of net impairment charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

For the fair value of derivatives, see Note 6 - "Derivative Instruments".

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, equipment purchases payable, and accounts payable carrying amounts approximate fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s other financial and non-financial assets, which include leasing equipment, finance leases, intangible assets and goodwill, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur, or if an annual impairment test is required and the Company determines that these other financial and non-financial assets are impaired after completing an evaluation, these assets should be written down to their fair value.

Note 3—Share Based Compensation and Other Equity Matters

The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense for share-based payment transactions based on the grant date’s calculated fair value. The expense is recognized over the employee's requisite service period which is generally the vesting period of the equity award.

The Company recognized $1.2 million and $4.5 million of share-based compensation expense in administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. The Company recognized $2.0 million and $4.3 million of share-based compensation expense in administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

As of September 30, 2017, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted shares was approximately $8.4 million, which is expected to be recognized through 2020.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company granted 121,702 restricted shares to certain employees and canceled 1,962 vested shares to settle payroll taxes on behalf of employees. Additional shares may be granted based upon the Company's performance measured against selected peers. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company granted 38,675 shares to directors which vested immediately.

On September 12, 2017, the Company completed a common share offering in which it sold 5,350,000 common shares at a public offering price of $32.75 per share. On September 22, 2017, the Company sold an additional 802,500 common shares at a public offering price of $32.75 per share pursuant to the full exercise of an option granted to the underwriters in connection with the offering. The aggregate net proceeds received by the Company from the offering, including the exercise of the option, amounted to $192.9 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, and before deducting total expenses incurred in connection with the offering of approximately $1.5 million. The net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including the purchase of containers.

The lease transactions are accounted for as capital leases over the term period of eight years and contain two early buyout options.

Note 6—Derivative Instruments

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure. Interest rate swap agreements are utilized to effectively modify the Company's exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of its floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. Such agreements involve the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the lives of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. The counterparties to the Company's interest rate swap agreements are highly rated financial institutions. In the unlikely event that the counterparties fail to meet the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company's exposure is limited to the interest rate differential on the notional amount at each monthly settlement period over the life of the agreements. The Company does not anticipate any non-performance by the counterparties. Substantially all of the assets of certain indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company have been pledged as collateral for the underlying indebtedness and the amounts payable under the interest rate swap agreements for each of these entities. In addition, certain assets of the Company's subsidiaries, are pledged as collateral for various credit facilities and the amounts payable under certain interest rate swap agreements.

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had interest rate swap agreements in place to fix the floating interest rates on a portion of the borrowings under its debt facilities as summarized below:

Derivatives	Net Notional Amount	Weighted Average Fixed Leg (Pay) Interest Rate	Weighted Average Remaining Term
Interest rate swaps	$1,760.6 Million	1.70%	3.5 years

Interest Rate Swaps Activity

The Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements during the first quarter of 2017 for a total notional amount of $400 million that involve the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments in order to fix the interest rate on a portion of the borrowings under its floating rate debt facilities. The agreements are non-amortizing over a one year term. The Company has designated these interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.

The Company terminated three interest rate swap agreements during the third quarter of 2017 with a total notional value of $193.1 million. The Company also terminated two interest rate cap agreements during the third quarter with a total notional value of $69.2 million which did not impact its consolidated financial statements, as the interest rate cap value per the contract exceeded actual interest rates.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

The Company has elected to use the income approach to value its interest rate swap agreements. This approach uses observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a present discounted amount. The Level 2 inputs for the interest rate swap and forward valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR and swap rates, basis swap adjustments and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals). The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy for its derivative instruments (in thousands):

Note 7—Segment and Geographic Information

Segment Information

The Company has two operating segments which also represent its two reporting segments:

• Equipment leasing—the Company owns, leases and ultimately disposes of containers and chassis from its lease fleet, as well as manages containers owned by third parties.

• Equipment trading—the Company purchases containers from shipping line customers, and other sellers of containers, and resells these containers to container retailers and users of containers for storage or one-way shipment. Included in the equipment trading segment revenues are leasing revenues from equipment purchased for resale that is currently on lease until the containers are dropped off.

The Company acquired the equipment trading segment as part of the Merger on July 12, 2016. Prior to the Merger, the Company operated in only one segment - equipment leasing and therefore all income and assets were attributed to the leasing segment for periods prior to the Merger.

The following tables summarizes segment information and the consolidated totals reported (in thousands):

There are no intercompany revenues or expenses between segments. Certain administrative expenses have been allocated between segments based on an estimate of services provided to each segment. A portion of the Company's equipment purchased for resale was purchased through certain sale-leaseback transactions with our shipping line customers. Due to the expected longer term nature of these transactions, these purchases are reflected as leasing equipment as opposed to equipment held for sale and the cash flows associated with these transactions are reflected as purchases of leasing equipment and proceeds from the sale of equipment in investing activities in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

Geographic Segment Information

The Company generates the majority of its leasing revenues from international containers which are deployed by its customers in a wide variety of global trade routes. Substantially all of the Company's leasing related revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The statements in this discussion regarding industry outlook, our expectations regarding our future performance, liquidity and capital resources and other non-historical statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described under "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 with the SEC on March 17, 2017, as amended (the "Form 10-K"). Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.

Our Company

On July 12, 2016, Triton Container International Limited (“TCIL”) and TAL International Group, Inc. (“TAL”) combined in an all-stock merger (the "Merger"). Under the terms of the transaction agreement, TCIL and TAL combined under a newly formed company, Triton International Limited (“Triton”, "we" or the “Company”). TCIL has been treated as the acquirer in the Merger for accounting purposes, and therefore, the results of operations for Triton, included herein, for the periods prior to the Merger on July 12, 2016 are for TCIL operations alone. However, certain operating statistics included in this section reflect the combined statistics for TCIL and TAL prior to the Merger in order to show overall operating trends more clearly.

Triton is the world's largest lessor of intermodal containers. Triton also leases chassis. Intermodal containers are large, standardized steel boxes used to transport freight by ship, rail or truck. Intermodal containers are the primary means by which many goods and materials are shipped internationally. Chassis are used for the transportation of containers.

We have two operating segments which also represent our reporting segments:

•Equipment leasing - we own, lease and ultimately dispose of containers and chassis from our lease fleet, as well as manage containers owned by third parties.

• Equipment trading - we purchase containers from shipping line customers, and other sellers of containers, and resell these containers to container retailers and users of containers for storage or one-way shipment.

Operations

Our operations include the acquisition, leasing, re-leasing and subsequent sale of multiple types of intermodal containers and chassis. As of September 30, 2017, our equipment fleet consisted of 3.3 million units, representing 5.5 million twenty-foot equivalent units ("TEU"). We have an extensive global presence, offering leasing services through 24 offices in 15 countries and 463 third party container depot facilities in 47 countries as of September 30, 2017. Our customers are among the largest shipping lines in the world. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, our twenty largest customers accounted for 83% of our lease billings, our five largest customers accounted for 55% of our lease billings, and our two largest customers, CMA CGM and Mediterranean Shipping Company, accounted for 19% and 14% of our lease billings, respectively.

We lease five types of equipment: (1) dry containers, which are used for general cargo such as consumer staples, manufactured component parts, electronics and apparel, (2) refrigerated containers, which are used for perishable items such as fresh and frozen foods, (3) special containers, which are used for heavy and over-sized cargo such as marble slabs, building products and machinery, (4) tank containers, which are used to transport bulk liquid products such as chemicals, and (5) chassis, which are used for the transportation of containers. Our in-house equipment sales group manages the sale process for our used containers and chassis from our equipment leasing fleet and buys and sells used and new containers and chassis acquired from third parties.

21

The following tables summarizes our equipment fleet as of September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and September 30, 2016 indicated in units, TEU and cost equivalent units, or "CEU".

______________________________________________________________________________

(1) In the equipment fleet tables above, we have included total fleet count information based on CEU. CEU is a ratio used to convert the actual number of containers in our fleet to a figure based on the relative purchase prices of our various equipment types to that of a 20 foot dry container. For example, the CEU ratio for a 40 foot high cube dry container is 1.68, and a 40 foot high cube refrigerated container is 10.0. The CEU ratios used in this calculation may differ slightly from current actual cost ratios and CEU ratios used by others in the industry.

The following table summarizes the percentage of our equipment fleet in units and CEU as of September 30, 2017:

Equipment Fleet	Percentage of total fleet in units		Percentage of total fleet in CEU
Dry	89.5	%	61.3	%
Refrigerated	6.5		30.7
Special	2.7		3.0
Tank	0.4		2.8
Chassis	0.6		1.4
Equipment leasing fleet	99.7		99.2
Equipment trading fleet	0.3		0.8
Total	100.0	%	100.0	%

We generally lease our equipment on a per diem basis to our customers under three types of leases: long-term leases, finance leases and service leases. Long-term leases have initial contractual terms ranging from three to eight years and provide us with stable cash flow and low transaction costs by requiring customers to maintain specific units on-hire for the duration of the lease. Finance leases are structured as full payout leases and provide for a predictable recurring revenue stream with the lowest cost to the customer as customers are generally required to retain the equipment for the duration of its useful life. Service leases command a premium per diem rate in exchange for providing customers with a greater level of operational flexibility by allowing the pick-up and drop-off of units during the lease term. We also have expired long-term leases whose fixed terms have ended, however, units remain on-hire and we continue to receive lease payments pursuant to the terms of the initial contract.

22

The following table summarizes the percentage of our lease portfolio by lease type based on CEU on-hire as of September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and September 30, 2016:

Lease Portfolio	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016		September 30, 2016
Long-term leases	70.7	%	69.7	%	68.2	%
Finance leases	5.1		6.3		6.7
Service leases	14.7		18.5		19.1
Expired long-term leases (units on-hire)	9.5		5.5		6.0
Total	100.0	%	100.0	%	100.0	%

As of September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2016, our long-term and finance leases combined had average remaining contract terms of approximately 40 months, 39 months, and 36 months, respectively, assuming no leases are renewed.

Operating Performance

The following discussion of market conditions and our operating performance refers to a variety of our business metrics and trends including fleet size, utilization, average per diem rates and used container sale prices and volumes. In this section, for the periods prior to the Merger, the relevant performance measures for TCIL and TAL have been combined on a pro forma basis for comparative purposes. We believe these combined business metrics for the periods prior to the Merger are relevant when evaluating operating performance and analyzing historical trends. These combined operating metrics do not necessarily reflect what the result would have been if the transaction occurred prior to July 12, 2016.

Market conditions remained favorable during the third quarter of 2017, especially for our dry container product line. The supply / demand balance for containers has been strong, driven by stronger than expected global containerized trade growth, limited new container production volumes during 2016, reduced new container purchases by a number of our competitors and shipping line customers, and new container production disruptions in 2017. We have been able to capitalize on these market conditions to produce solid improvements in our operating metrics and financial performance.

Fleet size.    As of September 30, 2017, our fleet included 6,934,564 CEU, an increase of 5.6% as compared to December 31, 2016, and an increase of 7.9% as compared to September 30, 2016. The increase in our fleet size was due to significant investments in new containers and sale-leaseback transactions in the last quarter of 2016 and during 2017.

Trade growth in 2017 has been stronger than expected, and most forecasters are currently projecting global containerized trade growth in the range of six percent. In addition, in 2017 we benefited from an increase in the share of new containers purchased by leasing companies and an increase in our share of new leasing transactions. Our shipping line customers have been facing difficult market conditions for several years, including excess vessel capacity and weak freight rates, and many have been reluctant to place sizable orders for new containers. Additionally, several of our container leasing competitors experienced financial challenges and have reduced their levels of new container investments. As of November 8, 2017, Triton has ordered approximately 790,000 CEU valued at approximately $1.6 billion in new and sale-leaseback containers for delivery in 2017. Approximately 122,000 CEU of these orders have not yet been delivered, and we expect our fleet size to increase further in the fourth quarter.

Utilization.    Our average utilization was 97.6% during the third quarter of 2017 an increase from 96.5% in the second quarter of 2017 and an increase from 92.4% in the third quarter of 2016. As of November 8, 2017, our utilization was 98.2%. In 2017, the strong supply / demand balance for containers and our increased leasing share has led to very strong container pick up activity and limited container drop off volumes. We expect the supply / demand balance for containers to remain favorable in 2018, but our utilization is near maximum levels, especially for dry containers, limiting the potential for further improvements.

23

The following tables summarizes the equipment fleet utilization⁽¹⁾ for the periods indicated below.

	Quarter Ended
	September 30, 2017		June 30, 2017		March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016		September 30, 2016
Average Utilization(2)	97.6	%	96.5	%	95.3	%	93.6	%	92.4	%

	September 30, 2017		June 30, 2017		March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016		September 30, 2016
Ending Utilization	98.0	%	97.1	%	95.8	%	94.8	%	92.6	%

_______________________________________________________________________________

(1) Utilization is computed by dividing our total units on lease (in CEU) by the total units in our fleet (in CEU) excluding new units not yet leased and off-hire units designated for sale.

(2) The average utilization for the quarter ending September 30, 2016 includes the combination of TCIL and TAL for the first 12 days of July 2016 which were prior to the Merger.

Average lease rates.    Average portfolio lease rates for our dry container product line increased in the third quarter of 2017 by 2.8% compared to the second quarter of 2017 and decreased by 0.5% compared to the third quarter of 2016. After being historically low for much of 2015 and 2016, market lease rates increased strongly during the fourth quarter of 2016 and continued to increase throughout 2017 driven by a rebound in new container prices and an increase in leasing demand. Market lease rates for dry containers are currently above the average rate of our dry container lease portfolio, and we expect our average dry container lease rates to increase further if new container prices remain in their current range and market conditions remain favorable.

We have a large number of dry container leases expiring in 2017 and 2018. We expect the impact of these dry container lease expirations will be relatively limited if the current market lease rate level is sustained. However, we would likely face a substantial negative impact on our average dry container lease rates and financial performance if dry container market lease rates fell back toward the levels we faced in 2015 and 2016.

Average lease rates for our refrigerated container product line decreased in the third quarter of 2017 by 1.9% compared to the second quarter of 2017 and decreased by 8.2% compared to the third quarter of 2016. The cost of refrigerated containers has trended down over the last few years, which has led to lower market lease rates. Market lease rates for refrigerated containers increased in 2017 due to less aggressive investment by leasing companies. However, market lease rates remain below the average refrigerated container lease rates in our lease portfolio and we expect them to continue to trend down.

The average lease rates for special containers remained flat in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2017 and decreased by 2.3% compared to the third quarter of 2016. Current market lease rates for special containers are comparable to the average lease rates in our lease portfolio.

Equipment disposals. Used dry container disposal prices increased strongly in the third quarter due to increased new container prices and a decrease in the number of containers being designated for sale due to the strong supply / demand balance for leasing containers. Average used dry container sale prices in the third quarter increased 8% from the second quarter of 2017 and 51% from the third quarter of 2016. We expect average dry container selling prices to increase further in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Disposal volumes of used containers decreased significantly in the third quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2017 and the third quarter of 2016 as strong lease demand has contributed to a significant reduction in the volume of containers being redelivered and designated for sale.

Credit Risk.    Our credit risk is currently elevated due to the ongoing financial pressure faced by our shipping line customers. The container shipping industry has faced several years of excess vessel capacity, weak freight rates and poor financial results due to the combination of low trade growth and aggressive ordering of mega container vessels. Most of our customers generated financial losses in 2016 and many are burdened with high levels of debt. We anticipate the high volume of new vessels entering service over the next several years will complicate our customers’ efforts to increase freight rates, and we expect our customers’ financial performance will remain under pressure for some time.

24

On August 31, 2016, Hanjin Shipping Co. ("Hanjin"), a lessee of the Company, filed for bankruptcy court protection and immediately began a liquidation process. At the time, Hanjin had approximately 87,000 of our containers on lease with a net book value of $243.3 million. The Company recorded a charge of $29.7 million during the third quarter ended September 30, 2016 comprised of bad debt expense and a charge for costs not expected to be recovered due to deductibles in our credit insurance policies. As of September 30, 2017, we have gained control or negotiated the release of over 93% of our containers previously on-hire to Hanjin of which approximately 82% are now back on-hire to other customers or have been sold.

We maintained credit insurance to cover the value of containers that are unrecoverable, costs incurred to recover containers and up to six months of lost lease revenue (limited up to six months or until a container is recovered, repaired, and available for re-lease), subject to our deductibles. The insurance policies did not cover our pre-default receivables. We have collected an advance partial payment from our insurance providers of $45 million. The Company currently believes that any further losses will be recoverable under the insurance policies, subject to deductible limits.

We expect it will become more difficult for us to mitigate our exposure to credit risks in the future through the purchase of credit insurance as a result of the Hanjin bankruptcy. We let our insurance policies lapse at expiration since underwriters offered significantly reduced coverage and required a meaningful increase in insurance premiums. We continue to monitor the availability and pricing of credit insurance and related products.

Dividends

We paid the following quarterly dividends during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 on our issued and outstanding common shares:

Record Date	Payment Date	Aggregate Payment	Per Share Payment
March 20, 2017	March 30, 2017	$33.2 Million	$0.45
June 1, 2017	June 22, 2017	$33.2 Million	$0.45
September 1, 2017	September 22, 2017	$33.2 Million	$0.45

Shareholders' Equity

On September 12, 2017, the Company completed a common share offering in which it sold 5,350,000 common shares at a public offering price of $32.75 per share. On September 22, 2017, the Company sold an additional 802,500 common shares at a public offering price of $32.75 per share pursuant to the full exercise of an option granted to the underwriters in connection with the offering. The aggregate net proceeds received by the Company from the offering, including the exercise of the option, amounted to $192.9 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, before deducting total expenses incurred in connection with the offering of approximately $1.5 million. The net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including the purchase of containers.

Per diem revenues were $287.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $224.2 million in the same period in 2016, an increase of $63.1 million. The primary reasons for the increase are as follows:

• $14.8 million increase due to the inclusion of TAL's per diem revenues for the full quarter in 2017 while TAL's per diem revenues were included only after July 12^th in the third quarter of 2016;

• $51.5 million increase due to an additional 1,029,221 CEU in the average number of containers on-hire under operating leases; partially offset by a

Fee and ancillary lease revenues were $9.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $18.7 million in the same period in 2016, a decrease of $9.4 million. The primary reason for the decrease is due to a decrease in redelivery fees due to a decrease in the volume of container re-deliveries as a result of strong demand.

Finance lease revenues were $5.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $4.9 million in the same period in 2016, an increase of $0.6 million. This increase was primarily due to the inclusion of a finance lease contract that commenced in September 2016 for a full quarter in 2017 as compared to one month in 2016.

• $13.2 million increase due to a net increase in the size of our depreciable fleet; partially offset by a

• $2.8 million decrease due to equipment becoming fully depreciated.

Direct operating expenses.     Direct operating expenses primarily consists of our costs to repair equipment returned off lease, to store the equipment when it is not on lease and to reposition equipment that has been returned to locations with weak leasing demand. Direct operating expenses were $13.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $27.8 million in the same period in 2016, a decrease of $14.0 million. The primary reasons for the decrease are due to a decrease in storage and equipment repair expenses resulting from a decrease in the number of idle containers and a reduction in redelivery volumes due to strong lease demand.

28

Administrative expenses.    Administrative expenses were $21.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $17.5 million in the same period in 2016, an increase of $3.8 million. The primary reasons for the increase are as follows:

Realized loss on derivative instruments, net.    Realized loss on derivative instruments, net was minimal in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $0.9 million in the same period in 2016, a decrease of 0.8 million. The decrease in the realized loss on derivative instruments, net, is a combination of the increased average one-month LIBOR rate in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 and the reduction of the underlying swap notional amounts due to amortization.

Unrealized loss (gain) on derivative instruments. Unrealized loss on derivative instruments, net was $0.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to an unrealized gain on derivative instruments, net of $3.5 million in the same period in 2016, a decrease of $4.1 million.

We own, lease and ultimately dispose of containers and chassis from our leasing fleet, as well as manage containers owned by third parties. Equipment leasing segment revenues represent leasing revenues from operating and finance leases, fees earned on managed container leasing activities, as well as other revenues. Expenses related to equipment leasing include direct operating expenses, administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization and interest and debt expense. The Equipment leasing segment also includes gains and losses on the sale of owned leasing equipment.

Equipment trading

We purchase containers from shipping line customers and other sellers of containers, and resell these containers to container retailers and users of containers for storage or one-way shipment. Equipment trading segment revenues represent the proceeds on the sale of containers purchased for resale. Expenses related to equipment trading include the cost of containers purchased for resale that were sold and related selling costs, direct operating expenses, administrative expenses and interest and debt expense.

Segment income before income taxes

The following table lists the income before income taxes for the equipment leasing and equipment trading segments for the periods indicated (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2017		2016			2017		2016
Income before income taxes(1)
Equipment leasing segment	$	73,232	$	(56,356	)	$	173,330	$	(27,583	)
Equipment trading segment	$	2,079	$	(3,979	)	$	4,257	$	(3,979	)

_______________________________________________________________________________

(1) Segment income before income taxes excludes unrealized gains or losses on interest rate swaps and the write-off of deferred financing costs. Unrealized losses on interest rate swaps were $0.6 million and unrealized gains on interest rate swaps were $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Write-offs of deferred financings costs were $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. There were no write-offs of deferred financing costs for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Unrealized gains on interest rate swaps were $0.1 million and unrealized losses on interest rate swaps were $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. There were $4.1 million and $0.1 million write-offs of deferred financing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from operating activities, proceeds from the sale of our leasing equipment, principal payments on finance lease receivables, borrowings under our credit facilities and proceeds from share issuances. Our principal uses of cash have been funding our operations, capital expenditures, debt service requirements and paying dividends.

In addition to the proceeds from our operating activities, on September 12, 2017, the Company completed a common share offering in which it sold 5,350,000 common shares at a public offering price of $32.75 per share. On September 22, 2017, the Company sold an additional 802,500 common shares at a public offering price of $32.75 per share pursuant to the full exercise of an option granted to the underwriters in connection with the offering. The aggregate net proceeds received by the Company from the offering, including the exercise of the option, amounted to $192.9 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, and before deducting total expenses incurred in connection with the offering of approximately $1.5 million. The net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including the purchase of containers.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2017, cash generated from operating activities, together with the proceeds from the sale of our leasing equipment and principal payments on our finance leases, was $962.8 million. In addition, as of September 30, 2017, we had $146.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and $1.7 billion of additional borrowing capacity under our current credit facilities.

As of September 30, 2017, our cash commitments in the next 12 months include $704.8 million of scheduled principal payments on our existing debt facilities and $357.3 million of committed but unpaid capital expenditures.

We believe that cash generated from operating activities, existing cash balances, proceeds from the sale of our leasing equipment, principal payments on our finance lease receivables and availability under our borrowing facilities will be sufficient to meet our obligations over the next 12 months.

34

At September 30, 2017, our outstanding indebtedness was comprised of the following (amounts in millions):

	Current Amount Outstanding			Current Maximum Borrowing Level
Institutional notes	$	2,388.9		$	2,388.9
Asset backed securitization (ABS) notes	2,450.2			2,450.2
Term loan facilities	1,752.4			1,752.4
Asset backed warehouse facility	45.0			800.0
Revolving credit facilities	115.0			1,075.0
Capital lease obligations	113.3			113.3
Total debt outstanding	6,864.8			8,579.8
Deferred financing costs	(42.7		)	—
Unamortized fair value debt adjustment	(32.0		)	—
Total debt outstanding	$	6,790.1		$	8,579.8

The maximum borrowing levels in the above table may not reflect the actual availability under all of the credit facilities as certain facilities are governed by borrowing bases that limit borrowing capacity to an established percentage of relevant eligible assets.

As of September 30, 2017, we had $4,354.2 million of total debt outstanding on facilities with fixed interest rates. These fixed rate facilities are scheduled to mature between 2017 and 2029 and had a contractual weighted average interest rate of 4.27% as of September 30, 2017.

As of September 30, 2017, we had $2,510.6 million of total debt outstanding on facilities with interest rates based on floating rate indices (primarily LIBOR). These floating rate facilities are scheduled to mature between 2018 and 2024 and had a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.25% as of September 30, 2017. Including the impact of our interest rate swaps, the contractual weighted average interest rate on our floating rate facilities was 3.58% as of September 30, 2017.

We economically hedge the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates on a portion of our floating rate borrowings by entering into interest rate swap agreements that convert a portion of our floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. As of September 30, 2017, we had interest rate swaps in place with a net notional amount of $1,760.6 million to fix the floating interest rates on a portion of our floating rate debt obligations, with a contractual weighted average fixed leg interest rate of 1.70% and a weighted average remaining term of 3.5 years.

As of September 30, 2017, we had a combined $6,114.8 million of total debt on facilities with fixed interest rates or floating interest rates that have been synthetically fixed through interest rate swap contracts. This accounts for 89.1% of total debt. The fixed facilities and fixed interest rate swap contracts had a weighted average remaining term of 4.2 years.

Overall, we had a contractual weighted average interest rate of 4.02% as of September 30, 2017, including the impact of the swap contracts.

Institutional Notes

In accordance with the institutional note agreements, interest payments on the Company's institutional notes are due semi-annually. Institutional note maturities typically range from 7 - 12 years, with level principal payments due annually following an interest-only period. The Company's institutional notes are pre-payable (in whole or in part) at the Company's option at any time, subject to certain provisions in the note agreements, including the payment of a make-whole premium in respect to such prepayment. Advance rates under the institutional notes generally range from 83% to 85%.

Asset-Backed Securitization Term Notes

Under our ABS facilities, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries issue asset-backed notes. The issuance of asset backed notes is the primary business objective of those subsidiaries.

35

Our borrowings under the ABS facilities amortize in monthly installments, typically in level payments over ten years. The borrowing capacity under the ABS facilities is determined by applying an advance rate against the sum of the net book values of designated eligible containers plus 100% of restricted cash and in certain cases other amounts. Advance rates under the ABS facilities range generally from 77% to 87%. We are required to maintain restricted cash balances in designated bank accounts equal to three to nine months of interest expense depending on the type of facility.

Term Loan Facilities

These facilities generally provide for an advance rate against eligible equipment defined by the terms of their respective agreements. The term loan facilities amortize in monthly or quarterly installments.

Revolving Credit Facilities

We have two revolving credit facilities which have a maximum borrowing capacity of $1,025 million and $50 million and maturity dates of June 16, 2022 and May 2, 2020, respectively. These facilities generally provide for an advance rate against eligible assets defined by the terms of their respective agreements.

Asset-Backed Securitization Warehouse Facilities

We have two asset-backed warehouse facilities with a combined borrowing capacity of $800 million as of September 30, 2017. One facility has a maximum borrowing capacity of $400 million that is available on a revolving basis until September 28, 2020, after which any borrowings will convert to term notes with a maturity date of September 20, 2024. The second facility has a maximum borrowing capacity of $400 million. The first $200 million of borrowing capacity under this facility is available on a revolving basis until March 10, 2019, after which any borrowings will convert to term notes with a maturity date of March 10, 2022. Incremental borrowing capacity under this facility above $200 million is available on a revolving basis until March 10, 2018, after which any borrowings will covert to term notes with a maturity date of September 20, 2019.

The borrowing capacity under the asset-backed warehouse facilities is determined by applying an advance rate against eligible equipment defined by the terms of their respective agreements. The advance rates on these facilities are 78% and 81%. The Company is required to maintain restricted cash balances in a designated bank account equal to three to five months of interest expense.

Capital Lease Obligations

We have entered into a series of lease transactions with various financial institutions to finance chassis and containers. Each lease is accounted for as a capital lease, with interest expense recognized on a level yield basis over the period preceding early purchase options, if any, which is generally 3-10 years from the transaction date.

Debt Covenants

We are subject to certain financial covenants under our debt agreements. The debt agreements are the obligations of the respective subsidiaries and all related debt covenants are calculated at the subsidiary level. Covenant compliance is tested at TCIL and TAL in their capacity as borrowers. Additionally, covenant compliance is tested at TCIL in its capacity as the Company’s manager. As of September 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all such covenants. Below are the primary financial covenants to which we are subject:

TCIL Facilities:

• Ratio of Consolidated Net Income Available for Fixed Charges to Fixed Charges ("Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio");

• Minimum Consolidated Tangible Net Worth ("CTNW"); and

• Funded Debt Ratio.

TAL Facilities:

• Ratio of Earnings Before Interest and Taxes ("Covenant EBIT") to Cash Interest Expense;

• Minimum Tangible Net Worth ("TNW"); and

• Indebtedness to TNW Ratio.

36

Pursuant to the terms of certain debt agreements, we are also required to maintain certain restricted cash accounts. As of September 30, 2017, we had restricted cash of $84.2 million.

Failure to comply with these covenants could result in a default under the related credit agreements and/or could result in the acceleration of our outstanding debt if we were unable to obtain a waiver from the creditors.

Non-GAAP Measures

We primarily rely on our results measured in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in evaluating our business. Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, CTNW, Funded Debt Ratio, Covenant EBIT, Cash Interest Expense, TNW, and Indebtedness are non-GAAP financial measures defined in our debt agreements that are used to determine our compliance with certain covenants contained in our debt agreements and should not be used as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. However, we believe that the inclusion of this non-GAAP information provides additional information to investors regarding our debt covenant compliance.

TCIL - Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio

The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is a six-quarter average of the ratio of consolidated net income of the TCIL subsidiary of Triton available for fixed charges to fixed charges. Consolidated net income for fixed charges is the sum of consolidated net income for such period, plus cash distributions received from unrestricted subsidiaries, plus all fixed charges. Consolidated net income excludes any non-cash gains and/or losses resulting from derivatives, and Merger costs ranging from $45.0 million for TCIL Institutional Notes to $65.0 million for TCIL Bank Facilities. Fixed charges are the sum of interest expense, imputed interest expense on capitalized leases, operating rental obligations other than those related to container equipment and operating rental expense on operating leases of container equipment. Interest expense is adjusted to exclude interest income and the amortization of deferred financing costs.

Entity/Issuer	Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio	Actual Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
TCIL Bank Facilities and Institutional Notes	1.25	1.68

TCIL - Minimum CTNW

Consolidated Tangible Net Worth ("CTNW") of the TCIL subsidiary of Triton is defined as the equity of TCIL and its restricted subsidiaries, excluding any non-cash gains and/or losses from derivatives, less the sum of all intangible assets and restricted investments of TCIL and its subsidiaries. CTNW is to be no less than $855.0 million. For the purpose of calculating Minimum CTNW, TCIL's investments in unrestricted subsidiaries are included in equity. As of September 30, 2017, the actual CTNW was $1.5 billion.

TCIL - Funded Debt Ratio

Funded Debt Ratio is the ratio of total debt of the TCIL subsidiary of Triton to CTNW plus deferred income related to the sales of container equipment to subsidiaries.

Entity/Issuer	Maximum Funded Debt Ratio	Actual Funded Debt Ratio
TCIL	4.00	2.54

TAL - Ratio of Covenant EBIT to Cash Interest Expense

For the purpose of this covenant, Covenant EBIT is calculated based on the cumulative sum of earnings before interest expense and income taxes for the last four quarters, net gain or losses on interest rate swaps, certain non-cash charges, and Merger costs up to $40.0 million on all entities. Cash Interest Expense is calculated based on cumulative interest expense over the last four quarters adjusted to exclude interest income, amortization of deferred financing costs, and the difference between current and prior period interest expense accruals.

37

The ratio of Covenant EBIT to Cash Interest Expense is calculated on a consolidated basis for our TAL subsidiary of Triton and for certain of our wholly-owned special purpose entities ("SPEs"), whose primary activity is to issue TAL asset-backed notes. Covenant EBIT for each of our SPEs is calculated based on the net earnings generated by the assets pledged as collateral for the underlying debt issued. The actual Covenant EBIT to Cash Interest Expense ratio for each SPE may differ depending on the specific net earnings associated with those pledged assets.

Entity/Issuer	Minimum Covenant EBIT to Cash Interest Expense Ratio	Actual Covenant EBIT to Cash Interest Expense Ratio
TAL - borrower level test	1.10	1.94
TAL asset backed warehouse	1.30	1.85
TAL asset backed securitization term notes	1.10	1.93*

* Reflects the weighted average for all series of notes issued by TAL Advantage V, LLC. Each series of notes must comply separately with this covenant, and as of September 30, 2017, each series is in compliance.

TAL - Minimum Tangible Net Worth

Minimum Tangible Net Worth ("TNW") is calculated as total tangible assets less total indebtedness which excludes the fair value of derivative instruments liability. The Minimum TNW requirement in relation to our TAL subsidiary of Triton ranges from $300.0 million to $750.0 million. As of September 30, 2017, the actual TNW was $908.4 million.

TAL - Indebtedness to TNW

Indebtedness to TNW ratio is calculated as the ratio of Indebtedness to TNW for our TAL subsidiary.

Entity/Issuer	Maximum Indebtedness to TNW Ratio	Actual Indebtedness to TNW Ratio
TAL	4.75	3.67

Cash Flow

The following table sets forth certain cash flow information presented for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2017			2016
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	574,790		$	337,482
Net cash (used in) investing activities	$	(1,003,621	)	$	(210,065	)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	$	461,895		$	(54,983	)

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $237.3 million to $574.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $337.5 million in the same period in 2016. Operating cash flows increased by $115.4 million due to the inclusion of TAL’s cash flows for the full year to date period in 2017 while TAL’s operating cash flows were included only after July 12^th in 2016.  The remaining increase was mainly due to an increased level of profitability as a result of the increase in demand and on hire activity.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $793.5 million to $1,003.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $210.1 million in the same period in 2016. This increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to an increase in the purchases of leasing equipment of $800.7 million. Cash provided by proceeds from the sale of equipment and principal payments on finance leases increased by $57.1 million which was largely offset by $50.3 million of cash acquired in the Merger in 2016 that did not re-occur in 2017.

38

Financing Activities

In the nine months ended September 30, 2017, cash flows provided by financing activities increased by $516.9 million to $461.9 million, compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $55.0 million in the same period in 2016. Cash flows provided by financing activities increased by $419.4 million due to net borrowings, inclusive of debt issuance costs, under debt facilities of $415.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to net payments, inclusive of debt issuance costs, under debt facilities of $3.7 million in the same period in 2016. In addition, proceeds from issuances of common shares, net of any redemptions increased by $196.5 million. These increases in cash provided by financing activities were partially offset by an increase in dividend payments of $48.0 million and an increase in restricted cash balances of $57.7 million in 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016.

Contractual Obligations

We are party to various operating and capital leases and are obligated to make payments related to our borrowings. We are also obligated under various commercial commitments, including obligations to our equipment manufacturers. Our equipment manufacturer obligations are in the form of conventional accounts payable, and are satisfied by cash flows from operations and financing activities.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and commercial commitments as of September 30, 2017:

	Contractual Obligations by Period
Contractual Obligations:	Total		Remaining 2017		2018		2019		2020		2021 and thereafter
	(dollars in millions)
Principal debt obligations	$	6,758.3	$	131.8	$	730.4	$	1,156.6	$	996.5	$	3,743.0
Interest on debt obligations(1)	1,135.2		69.7		260.5		222.0		180.7		402.3
Capital lease obligations(2)	129.4		11.3		32.0		11.2		10.8		64.1

_______________________________________________________________________________

(1) Amounts include actual for fixed interest debt and estimated interest for floating rate debt based on September 30, 2017 rates and the net effect of our interest rate swaps.

(2) Amounts include interest.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2017, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, which are often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We are, therefore, not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our estimates are based on historical experience and currently available information. Actual results could differ from such estimates. Our critical accounting policies are discussed in our Form 10-K.

39

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss to future earnings, values or cash flows that may result from changes in the price of a financial instrument. The fair value of a financial instrument, derivative or non-derivative, might change as a result of changes in interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes. We have operations internationally and we are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks include interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risks.

Interest Rate Risk

We enter into interest rate swap and cap agreements to fix the interest rates on a portion of our floating rate debt. We assess and manage the external and internal risk associated with these derivative instruments in accordance with our overall operating goals. External risk is defined as those risks outside of our direct control, including counterparty credit risk, liquidity risk, systemic risk and legal risk. Internal risk relates to those operational risks within the management oversight structure and includes actions taken in contravention of our policy.

The primary external risk of our interest rate swap agreements is counterparty credit exposure, which is defined as the ability of a counterparty to perform its financial obligations under a derivative agreement. All of our derivative agreements are with highly rated financial institutions. Credit exposures are measured based on the market value of outstanding derivative instruments. Both current and potential exposures are calculated for each derivative agreement to monitor counterparty credit exposure.

As of September 30, 2017, we had interest rate swap agreements in place to fix interest rates on a portion of our borrowings under debt facilities with floating interest rates as summarized below:

Derivatives	Net Notional Amount	Weighted Average Fixed Leg (Pay) Interest Rate	Weighted Average Remaining Term
Interest rate swaps	$1,760.6 Million	1.70%	3.5 years

Certain of our interest rate swap agreements are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes, and any unrealized gains or losses related to the changes in fair value are recognized in accumulated comprehensive income and re-classed to interest and debt expense as they are realized. A portion of our swap portfolio is not designated and changes in the fair value of non-designated interest rate swap agreements are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as unrealized loss (gain) on derivative instruments, net and reclassified to realized loss on derivative instruments, net as they are realized.

We recognized activity on our interest rate swap agreements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands):

		Three Months Ended  September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
Derivative instrument	Financial statement caption	2017			2016			2017			2016
Non-designated interest rate swaps	Realized loss on derivative instruments, net	$	20		$	864		$	902		$	2,268
Non-designated interest rate swaps	Unrealized loss (gain) on derivative instruments, net	$	629		$	(3,487	)	$	(80	)	$	5,243
Designated interest rate swaps	Other comprehensive income (loss)	$	(1,553	)	$	886		$	(7,579	)	$	886
Designated interest rate swaps	Interest and debt (income)expense	$	(160	)	$	(284	)	$	1,301		$	(284	)

Approximately 70% of our floating rate debt is hedged using interest rate swaps which help mitigate the impact of changes in short-term interest rates. However, a 100 basis point increase in the interest rates on our floating rate debt (primarily LIBOR) would result in an increase of approximately $9.3 million in interest expense over the next 12 months.

40

Foreign currency exchange rate risk

Although we have significant foreign-based operations, the majority of our revenues and our operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were denominated in U.S. dollars. We pay our non-U.S. employees in local currencies and certain operating expenses are denominated in foreign currencies. This activity is primarily denominated in the euro and the British pound. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, net foreign currency exchange gains and losses recorded in administration expenses in our statement of operations were immaterial.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Our senior management has evaluated the effectiveness and design of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)), as of September 30, 2017. Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as of September 30, 2017, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2017, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

41

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we are a party to litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business. While we cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of our management, based on information presently available to us, we believe that we have adequate legal defenses, reserves or insurance coverage and any liability arising from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business. Nevertheless, unexpected adverse future events, such as an unforeseen development in our existing proceedings, a significant increase in the number of new cases or changes in our current insurance arrangements could result in liabilities that have a material adverse impact on our business.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements [Text Block]

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of the Business

Triton International Limited ("Triton" or the "Company"), through its subsidiaries, leases intermodal transportation equipment, primarily maritime containers, and provides maritime container management services through a worldwide network of service subsidiaries, third-party depots and other facilities. The majority of the Company's business is derived from leasing its containers to shipping line customers through a variety of long-term and short-term contractual lease arrangements. The Company also sells containers from its equipment leasing fleet as well as containers specifically acquired for resale from third parties. The Company's registered office is located in Bermuda.

On July 12, 2016, Triton Container International Limited ("TCIL") and TAL International Group, Inc. ("TAL") combined in an all-stock merger (the "Merger"). Under the terms of the transaction agreement, TCIL and TAL combined under a newly formed company, Triton.

The consideration for the transaction was paid with Triton common shares. TAL stockholders received one Triton common share in exchange for each TAL common share and TCIL shareholders received approximately 0.8 Triton common shares for each TCIL common share. The fair value of the consideration, or the purchase price, was approximately $510.2 million. This amount was derived based on the fair value of the shares issued to TAL stockholders on July 12, 2016 when the closing share price was $15.28 per share.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

The interim consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017, the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, included herein, was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the Company’s annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2017 and its consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. The financial data and the other financial information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements related to these periods are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other future annual or interim period.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include TAL’s results of operations after July 12, 2016, the Merger completion date. The consolidated financial statements presented for periods prior to the Merger represent the historical financial statements of TCIL, the accounting acquirer in the Merger.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on March 17, 2017. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain changes in presentation have been made to conform the prior period presentation to current period reporting.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates in connection with purchase accounting, residual value, depreciable lives, value of assets held for sale, and estimates related to the bankruptcy of a lessee (including amounts for recoveries under insurance policies as described below).

Lessee Bankruptcy in 2016

On August 31, 2016, Hanjin Shipping Co. ("Hanjin"), a lessee of the Company, filed for court protection and immediately began a liquidation process. At that time, the Company had approximately 87,000 container units on lease to Hanjin with a net book value of $243.3 million. The Company recorded a charge of $29.7 million during the third quarter ended September 30, 2016 comprised of bad debt expense and a charge for costs not expected to be recovered due to deductibles in our credit insurance policies. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had gained control or negotiated the release of 93% of its containers previously leased to Hanjin of which approximately 82% are now leased to other customers or have been sold.

The Company maintained credit insurance to cover the value of such containers that are unrecoverable, costs incurred to recover containers and a portion of lost lease revenue (limited up to six months or until a container is recovered, repaired, and available for re-lease) all subject to a deductible. The insurance policies did not cover its pre-default receivables. The Company has collected an advance partial payment from its insurance providers of $45 million. The Company currently believes that any further losses will be recoverable under the insurance policies, subject to deductible limits.

Pro Forma Disclosure

The following table provides the unaudited pro forma results of operations, which gives effect to the Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2016. The pro forma results of operations reflects adjustments (i) to leasing revenues for the amortization of the excess of the fair value of operating lease contracts over the current market rate (ii) to adjust depreciation and amortization expense resulting from the write-down of leasing equipment to fair value and (iii) to eliminate non-recurring charges that were incurred in connection with the transactions including acquisition-related share-based compensation, transaction costs related to legal, accounting, and other advisory fees, and transaction costs related to retention and benefit costs.

The unaudited pro forma results do not include any anticipated synergies or other expected benefits of the Merger. The unaudited pro forma financial information presented below is not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have been achieved had the Merger occurred as of January 1, 2016 (in thousands):

	Three months ended, September 30, 2016			Nine months ended September 30, 2016
Total leasing revenues	$	261,977		$	815,256
Net (loss) income attributable to shareholders	$	(2,377	)	$	9,996

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company's equipment lease and trade receivables subject it to potential credit risk. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon an evaluation of each customer's financial condition and credit history. Evaluations of the financial condition and associated credit risk of customers are performed on an ongoing basis. The Company's two largest customers CMA CGM and Mediterranean Shipping Company, accounted for 19% and 14%, respectively, of the Company's lease billings during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Updates

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. ASU No. 2016-09 ("ASU No. 2016-09") Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Under this ASU, all excess tax benefits and deficiencies related to employee share-based compensation will be recognized within the provision for income taxes rather than additional paid-in capital. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2017 which resulted in the recognition of excess tax benefits for prior periods as a reduction in our Net deferred income tax liability account and an increase in accumulated earnings in the amount of $6.6 million. The Company has not recognized any excess tax benefits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. In addition, the adoption of this ASU had no impact on the consolidated financial statements with respect to forfeited awards since historically the Company’s forfeitures have been minimal and therefore had not estimated a forfeitures rate.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) that replaces existing lease accounting guidance. Among other things, in the amendments in ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date:

• A lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and

• A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.

The accounting that will be applied by lessors under ASC 842 is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new lease guidance will become effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), amending previous updates regarding this topic. Leasing revenue recognition is specifically excluded from this ASU, and therefore, the new standard will only apply to equipment trading revenues and sales of leasing equipment. The Company expects the impact of adoption of this ASU to be minimal since the majority of its sales contracts are for containers and do not contain multiple elements. The effective date is interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard allows for either “full retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or “modified retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. The Company plans to adopt the standard on its required effective date of January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expect the impact of this standard to be material to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance affects trade receivables and net investments in leases. The guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information from past events, including historical experiences, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectability. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Different components of the guidance require modified retrospective and/or prospective adoption. Based on the composition of the Company's receivables, current market conditions, and historical credit loss activity, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Receipts and Cash Payments. The updated amendment provides guidance as to where certain cash flow items are presented, including, debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory. The ASU eliminates the deferral of the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers other than inventory. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company currently presents changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents in the financing section of its statement of cash flows. The new guidance will not impact financial results, but will result in a change in the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents within the statement of cash flows. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company currently plans to adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 using the retrospective approach.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. For public companies, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides clarification on when modification accounting should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This ASU does not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should only be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions, or award classification and would not be required if the changes are considered non-substantive. This ASU is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is required to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 changes the recognition and presentation requirements of hedge accounting, including: eliminating the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness; and presenting all items that affect earnings in the same income statement line item as the hedged item. The ASU also provides new alternatives for: applying hedge accounting to additional hedging strategies; measuring the hedged item in fair value hedges of interest rate risk; reducing the cost and complexity of applying hedge accounting by easing the requirements for effectiveness testing, hedge documentation and application of the critical terms match method; and reducing the risk of material error correction if a company applies the shortcut method inappropriately. This ASU is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842) which provides additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Note 2—Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value represents the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company utilizes the following fair value hierarchy when selecting inputs for its valuation techniques, with the highest priority given to Level 1:

• Level 1—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

• Level 2—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on observable inputs such as (i) quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or (iii) model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.

• Level 3—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are derived from valuation techniques based on one or more significant unobservable inputs.

The Company’s debt fair value was measured using Level 2 inputs. The carrying value and debt fair value are summarized in the following table (in thousands):

	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Liabilities
Total debt(1) - carrying value	$	6,864,816	$	6,415,664
Total debt(1) - fair value	$	6,919,303	$	6,316,229

______________________________________________________________________________

(1) Excludes unamortized deferred financing costs of $42.7 million and $20.0 million and purchase price debt adjustments of $32.0 million and $42.2 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The Company’s equipment held for sale fair value is measured using Level 2 inputs and is based on recent sales prices and other factors. Equipment held for sale is recorded at the lower of fair value or carrying value and an impairment charge is recorded when the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The following table summarizes the portion of the Company’s equipment held for sale measured at fair value and the cumulative impairment charges recorded to net gain (loss) on sale of leasing equipment through the periods indicated below (in thousands):

	September 30, 2017			December 31, 2016
Assets
Equipment held for sale - assets at fair value(1)	$	8,383		$	41,067
Cumulative impairment charges(2)	$	(2,939	)	$	(12,063	)

___________________________________________________________________________

(1) Represents the carrying value of containers included in equipment held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets that have been impaired to write down the value of the containers to their estimated fair value less cost to sell.

(2) Represents the cumulative impairment charges recognized on equipment held for sale from the date of designated held for sale status to the indicated period end date.

Note 2—Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

The Company recognized net impairment charges of $0.3 million and net impairment reversals of $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. There were $13.2 million of net impairment charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

For the fair value of derivatives, see Note 6 - "Derivative Instruments".

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, equipment purchases payable, and accounts payable carrying amounts approximate fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s other financial and non-financial assets, which include leasing equipment, finance leases, intangible assets and goodwill, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur, or if an annual impairment test is required and the Company determines that these other financial and non-financial assets are impaired after completing an evaluation, these assets should be written down to their fair value.

Note 3—Share Based Compensation and Other Equity Matters

The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense for share-based payment transactions based on the grant date’s calculated fair value. The expense is recognized over the employee's requisite service period which is generally the vesting period of the equity award.

The Company recognized $1.2 million and $4.5 million of share-based compensation expense in administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. The Company recognized $2.0 million and $4.3 million of share-based compensation expense in administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

As of September 30, 2017, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted shares was approximately $8.4 million, which is expected to be recognized through 2020.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company granted 121,702 restricted shares to certain employees and canceled 1,962 vested shares to settle payroll taxes on behalf of employees. Additional shares may be granted based upon the Company's performance measured against selected peers.

Derivative Instruments

Note 6—Derivative Instruments

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure. Interest rate swap agreements are utilized to effectively modify the Company's exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of its floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. Such agreements involve the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the lives of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. The counterparties to the Company's interest rate swap agreements are highly rated financial institutions. In the unlikely event that the counterparties fail to meet the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company's exposure is limited to the interest rate differential on the notional amount at each monthly settlement period over the life of the agreements. The Company does not anticipate any non-performance by the counterparties. Substantially all of the assets of certain indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company have been pledged as collateral for the underlying indebtedness and the amounts payable under the interest rate swap agreements for each of these entities. In addition, certain assets of the Company's subsidiaries, are pledged as collateral for various credit facilities and the amounts payable under certain interest rate swap agreements.

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had interest rate swap agreements in place to fix the floating interest rates on a portion of the borrowings under its debt facilities as summarized below:

Derivatives	Net Notional Amount	Weighted Average Fixed Leg (Pay) Interest Rate	Weighted Average Remaining Term
Interest rate swaps	$1,760.6 Million	1.70%	3.5 years

Interest Rate Swaps Activity

The Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements during the first quarter of 2017 for a total notional amount of $400 million that involve the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments in order to fix the interest rate on a portion of the borrowings under its floating rate debt facilities. The agreements are non-amortizing over a one year term. The Company has designated these interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.

The Company terminated three interest rate swap agreements during the third quarter of 2017 with a total notional value of $193.1 million. The Company also terminated two interest rate cap agreements during the third quarter with a total notional value of $69.2 million which did not impact its consolidated financial statements, as the interest rate cap value per the contract exceeded actual interest rates.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

The Company has elected to use the income approach to value its interest rate swap agreements. This approach uses observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a present discounted amount. The Level 2 inputs for the interest rate swap and forward valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR and swap rates, basis swap adjustments and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals). The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy for its derivative instruments (in thousands):

Note 7—Segment and Geographic Information

Segment Information

The Company has two operating segments which also represent its two reporting segments:

• Equipment leasing—the Company owns, leases and ultimately disposes of containers and chassis from its lease fleet, as well as manages containers owned by third parties.

• Equipment trading—the Company purchases containers from shipping line customers, and other sellers of containers, and resells these containers to container retailers and users of containers for storage or one-way shipment. Included in the equipment trading segment revenues are leasing revenues from equipment purchased for resale that is currently on lease until the containers are dropped off.

The Company acquired the equipment trading segment as part of the Merger on July 12, 2016. Prior to the Merger, the Company operated in only one segment - equipment leasing and therefore all income and assets were attributed to the leasing segment for periods prior to the Merger.

There are no intercompany revenues or expenses between segments. Certain administrative expenses have been allocated between segments based on an estimate of services provided to each segment. A portion of the Company's equipment purchased for resale was purchased through certain sale-leaseback transactions with our shipping line customers. Due to the expected longer term nature of these transactions, these purchases are reflected as leasing equipment as opposed to equipment held for sale and the cash flows associated with these transactions are reflected as purchases of leasing equipment and proceeds from the sale of equipment in investing activities in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

Geographic Segment Information

The Company generates the majority of its leasing revenues from international containers which are deployed by its customers in a wide variety of global trade routes. Substantially all of the Company's leasing related revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars.

Note 9—Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rates were 15.7% and 13.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and 17.1% and 15.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company has computed the provision for income taxes based on the estimated annual effective tax rate and the application of discrete items, if any, in the applicable period. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to an increase in the proportion of pretax income (loss) generated in higher tax jurisdictions.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

The interim consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017, the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, included herein, was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the Company’s annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2017 and its consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. The financial data and the other financial information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements related to these periods are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other future annual or interim period.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include TAL’s results of operations after July 12, 2016, the Merger completion date. The consolidated financial statements presented for periods prior to the Merger represent the historical financial statements of TCIL, the accounting acquirer in the Merger.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on March 17, 2017. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain changes in presentation have been made to conform the prior period presentation to current period reporting.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates in connection with purchase accounting, residual value, depreciable lives, value of assets held for sale, and estimates related to the bankruptcy of a lessee (including amounts for recoveries under insurance policies as described below).

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Updates

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. ASU No. 2016-09 ("ASU No. 2016-09") Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Under this ASU, all excess tax benefits and deficiencies related to employee share-based compensation will be recognized within the provision for income taxes rather than additional paid-in capital. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2017 which resulted in the recognition of excess tax benefits for prior periods as a reduction in our Net deferred income tax liability account and an increase in accumulated earnings in the amount of $6.6 million. The Company has not recognized any excess tax benefits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. In addition, the adoption of this ASU had no impact on the consolidated financial statements with respect to forfeited awards since historically the Company’s forfeitures have been minimal and therefore had not estimated a forfeitures rate.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) that replaces existing lease accounting guidance. Among other things, in the amendments in ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date:

• A lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and

• A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.

The accounting that will be applied by lessors under ASC 842 is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new lease guidance will become effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), amending previous updates regarding this topic. Leasing revenue recognition is specifically excluded from this ASU, and therefore, the new standard will only apply to equipment trading revenues and sales of leasing equipment. The Company expects the impact of adoption of this ASU to be minimal since the majority of its sales contracts are for containers and do not contain multiple elements. The effective date is interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard allows for either “full retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or “modified retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. The Company plans to adopt the standard on its required effective date of January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expect the impact of this standard to be material to its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance affects trade receivables and net investments in leases. The guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information from past events, including historical experiences, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectability. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Different components of the guidance require modified retrospective and/or prospective adoption. Based on the composition of the Company's receivables, current market conditions, and historical credit loss activity, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Receipts and Cash Payments. The updated amendment provides guidance as to where certain cash flow items are presented, including, debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory. The ASU eliminates the deferral of the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers other than inventory. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company currently presents changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents in the financing section of its statement of cash flows. The new guidance will not impact financial results, but will result in a change in the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents within the statement of cash flows. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company currently plans to adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 using the retrospective approach.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. For public companies, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides clarification on when modification accounting should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This ASU does not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should only be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions, or award classification and would not be required if the changes are considered non-substantive. This ASU is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is required to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 changes the recognition and presentation requirements of hedge accounting, including: eliminating the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness; and presenting all items that affect earnings in the same income statement line item as the hedged item. The ASU also provides new alternatives for: applying hedge accounting to additional hedging strategies; measuring the hedged item in fair value hedges of interest rate risk; reducing the cost and complexity of applying hedge accounting by easing the requirements for effectiveness testing, hedge documentation and application of the critical terms match method; and reducing the risk of material error correction if a company applies the shortcut method inappropriately. This ASU is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 1—Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842) which provides additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.
