EX-99.1 2 a5087891-ex991.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 Exhibit 99.1 McGrath RentCorp Announces Results for Fourth Quarter and Year-end; EPS Increases 33% to $1.61 for the Year; Company Announces 14% Dividend Increase LIVERMORE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 23, 2006--McGrath RentCorp (Nasdaq:MGRC) today announced revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, of $77.6 million, compared to $59.3 million in fourth quarter 2004. The Company reported net income for the fourth quarter 2005 of $12.1 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to $8.8 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter 2004. Total revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, were $272.2 million, compared to $202.5 million in the same twelve-month period in 2004. Net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, increased 36% to $40.8 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, compared to net income of $30.0 million, or $1.21 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. The Company also announced that the board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per share for the quarter ending March 31, 2006, an increase of 14% over last year's same period. On an annualized basis, this dividend represents a 2.0% yield based on the February 22, 2006, closing stock price. The cash dividend will be payable on April 28, 2006, to all shareholders of record on April 14, 2006. For the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company's Mobile Modular division reported an increase in total revenues of 43% from $30.7 million in fourth quarter 2004 to $43.8 million in fourth quarter 2005, with both rental and sales revenues improving on the continued strength in the educational market. Modular sales revenues for the quarter of $14.4 million included $8.4 million of sales revenues related to hurricane damages in the southeastern U.S. in 2005. The Company views these types of large sale projects as unique opportunities and generally would not expect sale projects of a similar size to occur on a regular basis. Mobile Modular's increase in revenues led to a 37% increase in its pre-tax income to $13.4 million. Looking forward, Mobile Modular does not anticipate additional 2005 hurricane-related rental or sale opportunities of any significance. For the Company's TRS-RenTelco division, fourth quarter 2005 rental revenues increased 1% to $18.6 million from $18.5 million in the prior year's same quarter, and gross profit on rents increased to $8.0 million from $6.6 million a year ago primarily due to lower depreciation expense, contributing to the quarter's pre-tax income increase to $5.5 million from $3.9 million in 2004. Dennis Kakures, President and CEO of McGrath RentCorp, made the following comments regarding these results and future expectations: "Our favorable fourth quarter results were led by another solid year for Mobile Modular and the improving health and profitability of our test equipment business. Our long-term success has been and will continue to be driven by rental revenue growth and improved gross profit on rents. We believe these metrics provide the best gauge of the health and sustainable earnings potential of both Mobile Modular and TRS-RenTelco. "Our success in 2005 was driven by both of our core rental businesses, contributing to a combined 27% annual rental revenue increase to $152.3 million. Mobile Modular rental revenues increased 14% to $81.2 million, which includes our first full-year of Florida rental operations, with gross profit on rents increasing 15% to $51.8 million. TRS-RenTelco rental revenues increased 45% to $71.1 million, primarily as a result of the TRS acquisition in 2004, with gross profit on rents increasing 43% to $27.1 million. "Mobile Modular continued to benefit in 2005 from the recurring rental stream from educational facility rentals in the geographic markets we serve. California had another favorable year in rental revenue growth despite an increased level of classroom returns during the third and fourth quarters related to the completion of a number of modernization projects. In Florida, we continued to make strong progress in growing our customer base of public school districts. Additionally, our Florida hybrid classroom continues to gain popularity in the market place. In Texas, we benefited from both an increased level of classroom rental activity as well as from rentals related to the impact of various hurricanes. "At TRS-RenTelco, although fourth quarter rental revenues were only up slightly compared to a year ago, we managed to increase gross profit on rents by $1.4 million or 22% chiefly through lower depreciation expense and to a lesser degree continuing to improve the cost-effectiveness of our operations. Depreciation expense as a percentage of rents was 44.6% in the fourth quarter of 2005, as compared to 51.5% in the fourth quarter of 2004. The significant decrease in depreciation expense was attributable to the extension of useful life of two test equipment models in the second quarter of 2005, the impact of selling underutilized equipment through more effective management of our rental inventory at the model number level, and rental equipment becoming fully depreciated. "In addition to our favorable rental operations results in 2005, we benefited from unique sales of modular classrooms related to hurricanes in the southeastern U.S., which contributed $0.09 in EPS for the year. We also benefited from a lower effective tax rate in 2005 compared to 2004 as a result of a cumulative deferred tax adjustment for the state income tax accrual rate resulting from our first full-year of TRS operations following the acquisition, which added $0.03 in EPS for the year. "In late 2005, we began an important initiative and investment in our future by upgrading our operating and financial software applications. We believe this investment will benefit us in the years to come by creating information system platforms that provide us the scalability necessary for increased business levels in growing McGrath RentCorp. At this time, we expect this project to be completed in late 2007. "For Mobile Modular in 2006, we are uncertain at this time as to the level of new modernization work that will be commenced. This is a function of the current amount of unallocated and unreleased state funds for modernization from the prior state-wide bond measure, the backlog of applications awaiting funding and the actual commencement of projects. For modernization work beyond 2006, we are increasingly optimistic that a state-wide facilities bond measure in California with significant monies for modernization projects will be placed on the ballot in late 2006. We believe that this bond measure, if passed, along with the success of local bond measures passed in November 2005, should provide monies to support favorable levels of new modernization projects in both 2007 and 2008. Keep in mind, assuming favorable new business levels, compared to future returning equipment, we would expect that it will take at least a few quarters to raise utilization levels of the California classroom rental fleet, as the majority of classroom equipment typically begins to ship late in the second quarter and in the third quarter annually. For Florida, we are well positioned to continue to grow our business levels. We anticipate that we will continue to benefit from student enrollment growth, class size reduction, the phasing out of older coded modular classrooms and broader market acceptance of our hybrid classroom product. Also in 2006, we will begin to develop our Florida property for a regional sales and inventory center to support our growth. "For TRS-RenTelco in 2006, we are anticipating healthier U.S. and Canadian rental markets. Additionally, we should continue to benefit from cost-effectiveness improvement efforts to our operations. Internationally, we will continue the work started in late 2005 on evaluating strategic development opportunities in selective markets in which we are either currently doing business or are considering entering. "Looking forward to 2006, although we are projecting favorable top-line rental revenue growth for both modulars and electronics, our full-year earnings per share guidance is in a range of $1.50 to $1.60 per share. It is important to understand the year to year differences by bridging our actual results for 2005 of $1.61 per share to our 2006 guidance range of $1.50 to $1.60 per share. In 2006, although we expect improved rental operation results, we don't expect any significant sales like those in 2005 related to hurricane damages in the southeastern U.S., which added $0.09 per share. Further, we expect EPS in 2006 to be reduced by $0.09 per share for the estimated impact of stock option expensing required under FAS 123R beginning January 1, 2006 and by $0.04 per share due to a higher estimated effective tax rate of 39.0% compared to 37.5% in 2005, based on the expected 2006 revenue distribution by state. "In summary, I am very pleased with our 2005 results and I believe 2006 will continue to show favorable performance from our core rental operations. Looking ahead, our strategic planning process for evaluating both organic and acquisition opportunities for growth is fully engaged. We are actively assessing our next strategic growth opportunities and preparing our information systems and operating processes to support a growing McGrath RentCorp in the years ahead." FOURTH QUARTER 2005 HIGHLIGHTS (AS COMPARED TO FOURTH QUARTER 2004) -- Rental revenues increased 7% to $40.3 million. Within rental revenues, Mobile Modular increased 13% from $19.1 million to $21.7 million; TRS-RenTelco increased 1% from $18.5 million to $18.6 million, and improved sequentially from the third quarter 2005 level of $18.4 million. -- Sales revenues increased 96% to $28.7 million, resulting primarily from Mobile Modular's increased sales volume, which included $8.4 million of sales revenues related to damages caused by the recent hurricanes. Higher sales volume combined with a lower gross margin percentage, 22.7% in 2005 compared to 29.1% in 2004, resulted in a gross profit increase of $2.3 million. Sales revenues and related gross margins can fluctuate from quarter to quarter depending on customer requirements, equipment availability and funding. -- Depreciation of rental equipment decreased 5% to $11.1 million, with Mobile Modular increasing 28% to $2.8 million from $2.2 million in 2004, and TRS-RenTelco decreasing 13% to $8.3 million from $9.5 million in 2004. The TRS-RenTelco decrease was due to the determination in April 2005 to extend the useful lives on two models of test equipment (quarterly impact of $0.6 million), the selling of underutilized equipment and rental equipment becoming fully depreciated, offset by new equipment purchases. -- Debt increased $8.6 million during the quarter to $163.2 million, with the Company's total liabilities to equity ratio decreasing from 1.80 to 1 at September 30, 2005 to 1.73 to 1 as of December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, the Company, under its lines of credit, had capacity to borrow an additional $91.8 million. -- Dividend rate increased 27% to $0.14 per share for the fourth quarter 2005, as compared to $0.11 per share for the fourth quarter of 2004. On an annualized basis, this dividend represents a 1.7% yield on the February 22, 2006 close price of $32.25.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE The Company expects favorable rental revenue growth for both modulars and electronics in 2006, with full-year earnings per share to be in a range of $1.50 to $1.60 per diluted share. In 2006, although we expect improved rental operation results, we don't expect any significant sales like those in 2005 related to hurricane damages in the southeastern U.S., which added $0.09 per share. Further, we expect diluted earnings per share in 2006 to be reduced by $0.09 per share for the estimated impact of stock option expensing required under the adoption of Statement of Financial Standards No. 123R, "Share Based Payment," beginning January 1, 2006 and by $0.04 per share due to a higher estimated effective tax rate of 39.0%, compared to 37.5% in 2005, based on the expected 2006 revenue distribution by state. Such a forward-looking statement reflects McGrath RentCorp's expectations as of February 23, 2006. Actual 2006 full-year earnings per share results may be materially different and affected by many factors, including those factors outlined in the "forward-looking statements" paragraph at the end of this press release.
