The Company focuses on adjusted pre-tax results since it considers gains and losses on interest rate swaps and the write-off of deferred financing costs to be unrelated to operating performance and since it does not expect to pay any significant income taxes for a number of years due to the availability of accelerated tax depreciation on its existing container fleet and anticipated future equipment purchases.
Operating Performance
“TAL achieved solid operational and financial results in the second quarter of 2014,” commented Brian M. Sondey, President and CEO of TAL International. “We generated Adjusted pre-tax income of $1.45 per share, an increase of 2.8% from the first quarter of 2014. We also continued to generate a high level of returns, and we achieved an Adjusted pre-tax return on tangible equity(1) of 19.9% in the second quarter of 2014.”
“While our Adjusted pre-tax income increased sequentially from the first to the second quarter of 2014, it was down 12.7% from the second quarter of last year, mainly due to a large decrease in our disposal gains. Our average used container selling prices were down nearly 20% compared to the second quarter of last year, reflecting the ongoing moderation of used container sale prices from the extreme peak levels reached in 2011. Our disposal gains also continue to be constrained by the low number of original TAL containers reaching sale age due to our low level of procurement in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s.”
“Demand for leased containers was quite strong in the second quarter. Trade volumes this year have so far outperformed our customers’ expectations, and the market share shift from owned to leased containers continues. Net container pick-up activity in the second quarter for TAL was the highest it has been since the second quarter of 2010. Our utilization increased 0.8% during the quarter to reach 97.7% as of June 30, 2014, and our utilization also currently stands at 97.7%.”
“While demand and pick-up volumes for leased containers have been stronger than expected, lease rates remain weak. New container prices and long-term interest rates remain at low levels, and low-cost financing for leasing companies remains widely available and continues to fuel aggressive competition for every deal. We have passed on an unusually large number of lease opportunities this year due to pricing and lease structuring concerns, but we also continue to actively invest in our fleet to ensure we remain our core customers’ supplier of choice. Year to date, we have purchased $460 million of containers for delivery in 2014. We expect our returns on this investment to be lower than normal due to the aggressive price competition in our market, but we believe our lease structuring discipline together with our market-leading sales and operational capabilities will allow us to generate solid profitability and continue to deliver investment returns that are at the upper end of our industry.”
Outlook
Mr. Sondey concluded, “We currently expect leasing demand and our pick-up activity to remain strong through the third quarter. We will also benefit from a full quarter of leasing revenue from the large number of containers picked-up during the second quarter of this year. However, we expect some further reduction in our disposal gains, and we expect our trading margin to decrease in the third quarter from the second quarter level due to a lower volume of trading activity. Overall, we expect our Adjusted pre-tax income to increase slightly from the second to the third quarter.”
Dividend
TAL’s Board of Directors has approved and declared a $0.72 per share quarterly cash dividend on its issued and outstanding common stock, payable on September 24, 2014 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 3, 2014. Based on the information available today, we believe this distribution will qualify as a return of capital rather than a taxable dividend for U.S. tax purposes. Investors should consult with a tax adviser to determine the proper tax treatment of this distribution.
Investors’ Webcast
TAL will hold a Webcast at 9 a.m. (New York time) on Thursday, July 24, 2014 to discuss its second quarter results. An archive of the Webcast will be available one hour after the live call through Friday, September 5, 2014.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use the terms "EBITDA", “Adjusted EBITDA”, "Adjusted pre-tax income", "Adjusted net income", and "Adjusted pre-tax return on tangible equity" throughout this press release.
EBITDA is defined as net income before interest and debt expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding gains and losses on interest rate swaps, plus principal payments on finance leases.
Adjusted pre-tax income is defined as income before income taxes as further adjusted for certain items which are described in more detail below, which management believes are not representative of our operating performance. Adjusted pre-tax income excludes gains and losses on interest rate swaps and the write-off of deferred financing costs. Adjusted net income is defined as net income further adjusted for the items discussed above, net of income tax.
Adjusted pre-tax return on tangible equity is defined as the current quarter's Annualized adjusted pre-tax income divided by an average adjusted tangible equity. Adjusted tangible equity is defined as total stockholders' equity plus net deferred income tax liability and the net fair value of derivative instruments less goodwill.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted pre-tax income, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted pre-tax return on tangible equity are not presentations made in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted pre-tax income, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted pre-tax return on tangible equity should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, amounts determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including net income, or net cash from operating activities.
We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted pre-tax income, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted pre-tax return on tangible equity are useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because:
-- these measures are widely used by securities analysts and investors to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items such as interest and debt expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and gains and losses on interest rate swaps, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and the book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired;
-- these measures help investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure, our asset base and certain non-routine events which we do not expect to occur in the future; and
-- these measures are used by our management for various purposes, including as measures of operating performance to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis, in presentations to our board of directors concerning our financial performance and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.
We have provided reconciliations of net income, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in the tables below for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. We have provided reconciliations of income before income taxes and net income, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures, to Adjusted pre-tax income and Adjusted net income in the tables below for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
We have also provided a reconciliation of Adjusted pre-tax return on tangible equity in the tables below for the current quarter.

(a) The differences between Adjusted net income and reported net income in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were due to net losses and gains on interest rate swaps and the write-off of deferred financing costs. TAL uses interest rate swaps to synthetically fix the interest rates for most of its floating rate debt so that the duration of the fixed interest rates more closely matches the expected duration of TAL’s lease portfolio.
