RailAmerica, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2011 Results
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Oct. 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
Third Quarter Highlights
- Revenue increased 9% versus third quarter 2010.
- Income from continuing operations of $0.17 per share.
- Adjusted income from continuing operations (1) of $0.24 per share.
RailAmerica, Inc. (NYSE: RA) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. Third quarter 2011 revenue increased 9% to $139.7 million from $128.3 million in the third quarter of 2010. Freight revenue increased 7% to $104.7 million with average revenue per car up 14% and carloads down 6%. Non-freight revenue increased 14% to $35.0 million.
RailAmerica President and Chief Executive Officer John Giles, said, "This was another strong quarter for us. Operating income excluding 45G credits, impairments and asset sales increased 10%. We achieved these results through our continuing focus on pricing, non-freight revenue and productivity. Our success in these areas allowed us to perform well despite lower carloads and the temporary disruption of service on our New England Central Railroad from Hurricane Irene."
RailAmerica reported third quarter 2011 income from continuing operations of $9.1 million, or $0.17 per diluted share. This compares to $8.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2010. Noteworthy items impacting the third quarters of 2011 and 2010 include:
- 45G credits: Because the latest extension of the tax credits (for 2010 and 2011) did not occur until December 2010, no maintenance reimbursements were recognized in the third quarter of 2010. A $3.9 million reduction of expense was recorded in the third quarter of 2011.
- Amortization of swap termination costs: Non-cash charges of $2.7 million and $4.9 million were recorded in interest expense during the third quarters of 2011 and 2010, respectively, due to the June 2009 termination of an interest rate swap agreement.
- Asset impairment: Third quarter of 2011 includes a non-cash, $1.9 million impairment charge resulting from further evaluation of our locomotive fleet.
- Credit facility replacement: Third quarter of 2011 includes a $0.7 million non-cash charge related to the replacement of our asset backed loan facility with a new revolving credit facility.
- Acquisition income and expenses: The Company received a break-up fee in the third quarter of 2010 that offset other acquisition expenses resulting in a net $1.7 million of income.
- Asset sales: Third quarter of 2010 includes $1.7 million of gains on asset sales.
- Taxes: Cash taxes paid in the third quarter of 2011 were $1.1 million compared to the financial statement provision for income tax expense of $4.4 million.

The Company reported operating income of $31.5 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to $28.5 million in the third quarter of 2010. Third quarter 2011 operating income and expenses were favorably impacted by 45G credits as discussed above. In addition, third quarter 2011 operating expenses were up primarily due to higher fuel prices, labor expense and increases in materials and purchased services expenses largely due to growth in engineering services revenue. Operating income excluding the impact of 45G benefit, asset sales and impairments is shown below.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES TO GAAP MEASURES
Adjusted income from continuing operations is a supplemental measure of profitability that is not calculated or presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We use non-GAAP financial measures as a supplement to our GAAP results in order to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business. However, Adjusted income from continuing operations has limitations as an analytical tool. It is not a measurement of our profitability under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Income (loss) from continuing operations as a measure of profitability.
Adjusted income from continuing operations assists us in measuring our performance and profitability of our operations without the impact of transaction costs related to debt and credit facility extinguishment, acquisitions, impairment of assets and swap termination. The following table sets forth the reconciliation of Adjusted income from continuing operations.
