EX-99.1 3 d98535exv99w1.txt NEWS RELEASE DATED JULY 24, 2002 EXHIBIT 99.1 NEWS RELEASE Media Contact: Investor Contact: Nancy Farrar Neil Shoop Farrar Public Relations Treasurer (214)929-3298 (214)589-8561 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TRINITY INDUSTRIES ANNOUNCES OPERATING RESULTS FOR SECOND QUARTER OF 2002 AND RAILCAR BACKLOG IMPROVEMENT DALLAS - July 24, 2002 - Trinity Industries, Inc., (NYSE:TRN) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2002. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the company reported a net loss of $5.7 million, or 13 cents per diluted share, on revenues of $366.0 million. This compares to a net income of $9.6 million, or 26 cents per diluted share, on revenues of $467.6 million in the second quarter of 2001. The company reported that results for the quarter included a $2.2 million pre-tax charge for collectibility of an LPG equipment lease receivable from a customer entering bankruptcy during the quarter, $900 thousand of expenses related to issues surrounding litigation in its Inland Barge segment, and a $1.3 million charge-off of debt issuance costs related to loan agreements which were replaced during the quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, net loss was $14.3 million, or 32 cents per diluted share, on revenues of $750.3 million compared to net loss of $30.1 million, or 81 cents per diluted share, on revenues of $886.3 million for the same period last year. The prior year quarter included unusual charges of $55.8 million ($35.7 million after tax), or 97 cents per diluted share, primarily related to plant closings and litigation. "We are seeing some encouraging signs," said Timothy R. Wallace, Trinity's chairman, president and CEO. "During the 2nd Quarter, our North American railcar shipments were at their lowest point in over twelve years and we believe we hit the bottom of the cycle. Orders for North American railcars dramatically improved during this time period. The railcar industry had the first growth in backlog in fourteen quarters. Our North American backlog for railcars increased during the quarter by 1800 units, which was a 140% improvement compared to where we were at the end of the 1st quarter. While the numbers involved do not yet represent a long-term recovery, it is a move in the right direction and we are encouraged by it. We are staying focused on managing through the business cycle in order to be very strong in a recovering market." "Our Construction Products segment continues to perform well and backlogs are holding up in our other businesses. While we expect positive earnings and cash flow from our four business segments other than railcar this year, our outlook for the year is a consolidated loss per share in the range of 25 to 40 cents per share, " Wallace said. Trinity Industries, Inc., with headquarters in Dallas, Texas, is one of the nation's leading diversified industrial companies.
