CEO Comment

"Our strong fourth quarter results continued to demonstrate benefits from the execution of our balanced growth strategy," says Ryder Chairman and CEO Robert Sanchez. "Initiatives focused on increasing returns and driving long-term profitable growth contributed to higher earnings in the quarter, despite lower gains on used vehicles sold and inflationary cost pressures. Earnings in SCS and DTS increased 67% and 150%, respectively, reflecting pricing actions and growth in these higher-return contractual businesses.

Our balance sheet remains strong and enabled us to fund organic growth and strategic SCS acquisitions. In addition, Ryder rewarded its shareholders through a combination of cash dividends of $123 million and share repurchases of $557 million in 2022. We generated strong ROE of 29%, above our long-term target of high-teens, reflecting strong market conditions in rental and used vehicle sales and continued benefits from our returns initiatives.

In 2022, we demonstrated significant progress on our balanced growth strategy and believe we are well positioned to outperform prior cycles. We accelerated growth in SCS and DTS, both organically and through strategic, accretive acquisitions. The team successfully implemented pricing actions in SCS and DTS, which improved profitability. In FMS, we continued to price new and renewing leases at higher returns and surpassed our $100 million annual cost savings target from our multi-year maintenance initiatives. We also substantially completed the exit of our sub-performing FMS business in the UK, redeploying the proceeds to higher-return opportunities.

Overall, we are confident in our ability execute on our strategy and expect to leverage our operating momentum and the benefits from our initiatives to drive increased shareholder value."

(1) Non-GAAP financial measure excluding fuel and lease liability insurance revenue.

  • FMS total revenue grew 6% to $1.6 billion; operating revenue grew 2% to $1.3 billion
    • Increase due to higher rental revenue driven by increased pricing
    • Total revenue also increased due to higher fuel prices passed through to customers
    • Operating revenue increased globally despite a 4% negative impact from the wind down of the UK business
  • FMS EBT remained at $255 million
    • Benefits from declining depreciation impact from prior residual value estimate changes and higher rental results were offset by lower gains on the sale of used vehicles
    • Lower gains reflect reduced sales volume and a 6% decrease in used tractor pricing. Sequentially from the third quarter of 2022, used truck and tractor pricing decreased 7% and 2%, respectively
    • Global used vehicle inventory levels increased sequentially to 4,300 vehicles but remain below the company's long-term target range of 7,000 - 9,000 vehicles
    • Rental benefited from a 6% increase in power-fleet pricing and strong power-fleet utilization of 82% on a larger fleet
    • Inflationary cost pressures, including increased variable interest rates, negatively impacted results
  • FMS EBT as a percentage of FMS operating revenue is well above the company's long-term target of low double-digits for the fourth quarter and full year 2022

  • SCS total revenue grew 44% to $1.3 billion; operating revenue grew 44% to $883 million
    • Increase due to acquisitions and double-digit organic revenue growth in all industry verticals reflecting increased pricing, new business, and higher volumes
    • Operating revenue grew 22% organically
  • SCS EBT grew 67% to $35 million
    • Increase primarily due to higher pricing and new business
    • Partially offset by a $20 million asset impairment charge related to the early termination of a customer distribution center in 2023
  • SCS EBT as a percentage of SCS operating revenue is below the company's long-term target of high single-digits for the fourth quarter and full year 2022

Corporate Financial Information

Unallocated Central Support Services (CSS)

Unallocated CSS costs were $22 million as compared to $15 million in the prior year, primarily reflecting investment income in the prior year from RyderVentures, the company's corporate venture capital fund.

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations was 31.4% as compared to 22.8% in the prior year and our comparable effective income tax rate (a non-GAAP measure) from continuing operations was 28.2%, as compared to 22.6% in the prior year. The increases in the rates were due to incremental U.S. tax on higher foreign earnings related to the exit of our UK FMS business as well as a shift in the mix of earnings subject to tax in different jurisdictions.

Capital Expenditures, Cash Flow, and Leverage

Full-year capital expenditures increased to $2.7 billion in 2022 compared to $2.0 billion in 2021 due to higher planned investments in the lease fleet.

Full-year net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased to $2.3 billion as compared to $2.2 billion in the prior year, reflecting higher earnings partially offset by higher working capital needs. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) was $921 million, down from $1.1 billion in 2021, primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures partially offset by higher proceeds from the sale of revenue-earning equipment, including proceeds from the FMS UK business exit.

Debt-to-equity as of December 31, 2022 decreased to 216% from 235% at year-end 2021 and is below the company's long-term target of 250% to 300%.

Share Repurchase Programs

During the fourth quarter, we repurchased 2 million shares for $179 million under our completed 2021 Discretionary program. Additionally, we repurchased 0.9 million shares for $78 million under our 2021 Anti-Dilutive program. In February 2023, the board authorized a new 2-million-share discretionary repurchase program.

Fleet Management Solutions UK Business Update

The company substantially completed the exit of the lower-return FMS UK business. In 2022, Ryder sold more than 90% of vehicles and properties, generating proceeds of approximately $400 million.

Outlook

"Increased demand for resilient supply chains and other secular trends continue to favor transportation and logistics outsourcing," says Ryder Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer John Diez. "In 2023, we expect strong but reduced earnings as a slowing macroeconomic and freight environment drive lower results in used vehicle sales and rental. We expect these headwinds to be partially offset by continued earnings momentum in supply chain and dedicated. We are pleased with the progress of our balanced growth strategy to drive long-term profitable growth and increase returns over the cycle. We anticipate ROE will be at our long-term target of high teens. Our balance sheet remains strong, providing us with the ability to continue to return capital to shareholders through a new 2-million-share discretionary repurchase program."

Note: Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements and information included in this news release are “forward-looking statements” under the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including our forecast; expectations regarding market trends and economic environment; expectations regarding total revenue growth, operating revenue growth, earnings per share, comparable earnings per share, adjusted ROE and debt-to-equity; impact of supply chain and labor shortage challenges and vehicle production constraints on our business, market conditions, e-commerce trends, freight environment, expected earnings, depreciation, commercial rental demand and utilization, and used vehicle sales volume and pricing; expectations related to our strategic investments and initiatives, including our recent supply chain acquisitions and initiatives related to maintenance costs savings and improving returns; expected benefits of lease pricing initiatives and our ability to renew leases; our expectations regarding benefits from the 2-million-share discretionary repurchase program; our expectations related to the exit from the FMS U.K. market; our ability to execute our balanced growth strategy; performance, including sales and revenue growth, in our product lines and segments; residual values and depreciation expense; used vehicle inventory; earnings, including as a result of the macroeconomic and freight environment’s effect on used vehicle sales and rental; free cash flow; tax rate; operating cash flow; capital expenditures; fleet growth; and expected benefits from new contracts and pricing initiatives in our supply chain and dedicated business divisions. Our forward-looking statements also include our estimates of the impact of our changes to residual value estimates on earnings and depreciation expense. The expected impact of the change in residual value estimates is based on our current assessment of the residual values and useful lives of revenue-earning equipment based on multi-year trends and our outlook for the expected near- and long-term used vehicle market. A variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, could cause residual value estimates to differ from actual used vehicle sales pricing, such as changes in supply and demand of used vehicles; volatility in market conditions; changes in vehicle technology; competitor pricing; regulatory requirements; driver shortages; customer requirements and preferences; and changes in underlying assumption factors.

All of our forward-looking statements should be evaluated by considering the many risks and uncertainties inherent in our business that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include changes in general economic and financial conditions in the U.S. and worldwide; ongoing supply chain and labor challenges and vehicle production constraints; the effect of geopolitical events; our ability to adapt to changing market conditions, including lower than expected contractual sales, decreases in commercial rental demand or utilization, poor acceptance of rental pricing, and declining market demand for or excess supply of used vehicles impacting current or estimated pricing and our anticipated proportion of retail versus wholesale sales; declining customer demand for our services; higher than expected maintenance costs; lower than expected benefits from our cost-savings initiatives; our ability to effectively and efficiently integrate acquisitions into our business; lower than expected benefits from our sales, marketing and new product initiatives; setbacks in the economic market or in our ability to retain profitable customer accounts; impact of changing laws and regulations; difficulty in obtaining adequate profit margins for our services; inability to maintain current pricing levels due to soft economic conditions, business interruptions or expenditures due to labor disputes, severe weather or natural occurrences; competition from other service providers, changes in technology and new entrants; professional driver and technician shortages resulting in higher procurement costs and turnover rates; impact of worldwide semiconductor shortage; higher than expected bad debt reserves or write-offs; decrease in credit ratings; increased debt costs; adequacy of accounting estimates; higher than expected reserves and accruals particularly with respect to pension, taxes, insurance and revenue; impact of changes in our residual value estimates and accounting policies; unanticipated changes in fuel and alternative energy prices; unanticipated currency exchange rate fluctuations; increases in inflation or interest rates; our ability to manage our cost structure; and the risks described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The risks included here are not exhaustive. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors or to assess the impact of such risks on our business. Accordingly, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Set forth in the table below is an overview of each non-GAAP financial measure and why management believes that presentation of each non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors. See reconciliations for each of these measures following this table.

Operating Revenue Measures:

Operating Revenue

 

FMS Operating Revenue

 

SCS Operating Revenue

 

DTS Operating Revenue

 

Operating Revenue Growth

 

FMS EBT as a % of FMS Operating Revenue

 

SCS EBT as a % of SCS Operating Revenue

 

DTS EBT as a % of DTS Operating Revenue

 

Operating revenue is defined as total revenue for Ryder System, Inc. or each business segment (FMS, SCS and DTS) excluding any (1) fuel and (2) subcontracted transportation, as well as (3) revenue from our ChoiceLease liability insurance program which was discontinued in early 2020. We believe operating revenue provides useful information to investors as we use it to evaluate the operating performance of our core businesses and as a measure of sales activity at the consolidated level for Ryder System, Inc., as well as for each of our business segments. We also use segment EBT as a percentage of segment operating revenue for each business segment for the same reason. Note: FMS EBT, SCS EBT and DTS EBT, our primary measures of segment performance, are not non-GAAP measures.

 

Fuel: We exclude FMS, SCS and DTS fuel from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as fuel is an ancillary service that we provide our customers. Fuel revenue is impacted by fluctuations in market fuel prices and the costs are largely a pass-through to our customers, resulting in minimal changes in our profitability during periods of steady market fuel prices. However, profitability may be positively or negatively impacted by rapid changes in market fuel prices during a short period of time, as customer pricing for fuel services is established based on current market fuel costs.

 

Subcontracted transportation: We exclude subcontracted transportation from the calculation of our operating revenue measures, as these services are also typically a pass-through to our customers and, therefore, fluctuations result in minimal changes to our profitability. While our SCS and DTS business segments subcontract certain transportation services to third party providers, our FMS business segment does not engage in subcontracted transportation and, therefore, this item is not applicable to FMS.

 

ChoiceLease liability insurance: We exclude ChoiceLease liability insurance as we announced our plan in the first quarter of 2020 to exit the extension of our liability insurance coverage for ChoiceLease customers. The exit of this program was completed in the first quarter of 2021. We are excluding the revenue associated with this program for better comparability of our on-going operations.

Comparable Earnings Measures:

Comparable Earnings before Income Taxes (EBT)

 

Comparable Earnings

 

Comparable Earnings per Diluted Common Share (EPS)

 

Comparable Tax Rate

 

Adjusted Return on Equity (ROE)

 

Comparable EBT, Comparable Earnings and Comparable EPS are defined, respectively, as GAAP EBT, earnings and EPS, all from continuing operations, excluding (1) non-operating pension costs, net and (2) other items impacting comparability (as further described below). We believe these comparable earnings measures provide useful information to investors and allow for better year-over-year comparison of operating performance.

 

Non-operating pension costs, net: Our comparable earnings measures exclude non-operating pension costs, net, which include the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost, interest cost and expected return on plan assets components of pension and postretirement benefit costs, as well as any significant charges for settlements or curtailments if recognized. We exclude non-operating pension costs, net because we consider these to be impacted by financial market performance and outside the operational performance of our business.

 

Other Items Impacting Comparability: Our comparable and adjusted earnings measures also exclude other significant items that are not representative of our business operations as detailed in the reconciliation table below. These other significant items vary from period to period and, in some periods, there may be no such significant items.

 

Comparable Tax Rate is computed using the same methodology as the GAAP provision for income taxes. Income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments are calculated based on the marginal tax rates to which the non-GAAP adjustments are related.

 

Adjusted ROE is defined as adjusted net earnings divided by adjusted average shareholders' equity and represents the rate of return on shareholders' investment. Other items impacting comparability described above are excluded, as applicable, from the calculation of net earnings and average shareholders' equity. We use adjusted ROE as an internal measure of how effectively we use the owned capital invested in our operations.

Comparable Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)

Comparable EBITDA is defined as net earnings, first adjusted to exclude discontinued operations and the following items, all from continuing operations: (1) non-operating pension costs, net and (2) any other items that are not representative of our business operations (these items are the same items that are excluded from comparable earnings measures for the relevant periods as described immediately above) and then adjusted further for (1) interest expense, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation, (4) used vehicle sales results and (5) amortization.

 

We believe comparable EBITDA provides investors with useful information, as it is a standard measure commonly reported and widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to measure financial performance and our ability to service debt and meet our payment obligations. In addition, we believe that the inclusion of comparable EBITDA provides consistency in financial reporting and enables analysts and investors to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results. Other companies may calculate comparable EBITDA differently; therefore, our presentation of comparable EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

 

Comparable EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings, earnings from continuing operations before income taxes or earnings from continuing operations determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of our operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), as an indicator of cash flows, or as a measure of liquidity.

Cash Flow Measures:

Total Cash Generated

 

Free Cash Flow

 

We consider total cash generated and free cash flow to be important measures of comparative operating performance, as our principal sources of operating liquidity are cash from operations and proceeds from the sale of revenue earning equipment.

 

Total Cash Generated is defined as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment, (3) net cash provided by the sale of operating property and equipment and (4) other cash inflows from investing activities. We believe total cash generated is an important measure of total cash flows generated from our ongoing business activities.

 

Free Cash Flow is defined as the net amount of cash generated from operating activities and investing activities (excluding acquisitions) from continuing operations. We calculate free cash flow as the sum of (1) net cash provided by operating activities, (2) net cash provided by the sale of revenue earning equipment and operating property and equipment, and (3) other cash inflows from investing activities, less (4) purchases of property and revenue earning equipment. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available for debt service and for shareholders, after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations. Our calculation of free cash flow may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.
