Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The foregoing Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been prepared from the books and records of Trinity Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Trinity,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or "us") including the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and partially-owned subsidiaries, TRIP Rail Holdings LLC (“TRIP Holdings”) and RIV 2013 Rail Holdings LLC ("RIV 2013"), in which we have a controlling interest. In our opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position as of March 31, 2022, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, have been made in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2022 presentation.

Due to seasonal and other factors, including the ongoing impacts of the coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”), the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 may not be indicative of expected results of operations for the year ending December 31, 2022. These interim financial statements and notes are condensed as permitted by the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Sale of Highway Products Business

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company completed the sale of Trinity Highway Products, LLC (“THP”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of THP, to Rush Hour Intermediate II, LLC ("Rush Hour"), an entity owned by an affiliated investment fund of Monomoy Capital Partners, for an aggregate purchase price of $375.0 million, subject to certain adjustments.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is measured based on the allocation of the transaction price in a contract to satisfied performance obligations. The transaction price does not include any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. We recognize revenue when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Payments for our products and services are generally due within normal commercial terms. The following is a description of principal activities from which we generate our revenue, separated by reportable segments. See Note 4 for a further discussion regarding our reportable segments.

Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group

In our Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group ("Leasing Group"), revenue from rentals and operating leases, including contracts that contain non-level fixed lease payments, is recognized monthly on a straight-line basis. Leases not classified as operating leases are generally considered sales-type leases as a result of an option to purchase.

We review our operating lease receivables for collectibility on a regular basis, taking into consideration changes in factors such as the lessee’s payment history, the financial condition of the lessee, and business and economic conditions in the industry in which the lessee operates. In the event that the collectibility of a receivable with respect to any lessee is no longer probable, we derecognize the revenue and related receivable and recognize future revenue only when the lessee makes a rental payment. Contingent rents are recognized when the contingency is resolved.

Selling profit or loss associated with sales-type leases is recognized upon lease commencement, and a net investment in the sales-type lease is recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Interest income related to sales-type leases is recognized over the lease term using the effective interest method. See "Lease Accounting" below for additional information regarding sales-type leases as of March 31, 2022. We had no sales-type leases as of December 31, 2021.

Table of Contents

We report all sales of railcars from the lease fleet and selling profit or loss associated with sales-type leases as a net gain or loss from the disposal of a long-term asset in accordance with ASC 610-20, Gains and losses from the derecognition of non-financial assets. These sales are presented in the Lease portfolio sales line in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We account for shipping and handling costs as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the good; as such, these fees are recorded in revenue. The fees and costs of shipping and handling activities are accrued when the related performance obligation has been satisfied.

Rail Products Group

Our railcar manufacturing business recognizes revenue related to new railcars when the customer has submitted its certificate of acceptance and legal title of the railcar has passed to the customer. Certain contracts for the sales of railcars include price adjustments based on steel-price indices; this amount represents variable consideration for which we are unable to estimate the final consideration until the railcar is delivered.

Revenue is recognized over time as repair and maintenance projects and sustainable railcar conversions are completed, using an input approach based on the costs incurred relative to the total estimated costs of performing the project. We recorded contract assets of $12.9 million and $4.5 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, related to unbilled revenues recognized on repair and maintenance services and sustainable railcar conversions that have been performed, but for which the entire project has not yet been completed, and the railcar has not yet been shipped to the customer. These contract assets are included within the Receivables, net of allowance line in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Unsatisfied Performance Obligations

The following table includes estimated revenue expected to be recognized in future periods related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of March 31, 2022 and the percentage of the outstanding performance obligations as of March 31, 2022 expected to be delivered during the remainder of 2022:


	Unsatisfied performance obligations at March 31, 2022
	Total Amount		Percent expected to be delivered in 2022
	(in millions)
Rail Products Group:
New railcars:
External customers	$	1,209.3
Leasing Group	686.1
	$	1,895.4	59.5	%
Sustainable railcar conversions	$	128.2	95.6	%
Maintenance services	$	2.2	100.0	%

Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group	$	69.8	17.8	%

The remainder of the unsatisfied performance obligations for the Rail Products Group is expected to be delivered through 2025. The orders in the Rail Products Group's backlog from the Leasing Group are fully supported by lease commitments with external customers. The final amount of backlog attributable to the Leasing Group may vary by the time of delivery as customers may choose to change their procurement decision.

Unsatisfied performance obligations for the Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group are related to servicing, maintenance, and management agreements and are expected to be performed through 2029.

Lease Accounting

Lessee

We are the lessee of operating leases predominantly for railcars, as well as office buildings, manufacturing equipment, and office equipment. Our operating leases have remaining lease terms ranging from one year to fifteen years, some of which include options to extend for up to five years, and some of which include options to terminate within one year. As of March 31, 2022, we had no material finance leases in which we were the lessee. As applicable, the lease liability is reduced by the amount of lease incentives that have not yet been reimbursed by the lessor.

The following table summarizes the impact of our operating leases on our Consolidated Financial Statements (in millions, except lease term and discount rate):

Lessor

Our Leasing Group enters into railcar operating leases with third parties with terms generally ranging between one year and ten years. The majority of our fleet operates on leases that earn fixed monthly lease payments. Generally, lease payments are due at the beginning of the applicable month. A portion of our fleet operates on per diem leases that earn usage-based variable lease payments. Some of our leases include options to extend the leases for up to five years, and a small percentage of our leases include early termination options with certain notice requirements and early termination penalties. As of March 31, 2022, non-Leasing Group operating leases were not significant, and we had no direct finance leases.

We manage risks associated with residual values of leased railcars by investing across a diverse portfolio of railcar types, staggering lease maturities within any given railcar type, avoiding concentration of railcar type and industry, and actively participating in secondary markets. Additionally, our lease agreements contain normal wear and tear return condition provisions and high mileage thresholds designed to protect the value of our residual assets. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

Financial Instruments

We consider all highly liquid debt instruments to be either cash and cash equivalents if purchased with a maturity of three months or less, or short-term marketable securities if purchased with a maturity of more than three months and less than one year.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk are primarily cash investments, including restricted cash and receivables. We place our cash investments in bank deposits, investment grade, short-term debt instruments, and highly-rated commercial paper. We limit the amount of credit exposure to any one commercial issuer. The carrying values of cash, receivables, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values.

Table of Contents

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to receivables are limited due to control procedures that monitor the credit worthiness of customers, the large number of customers in our customer base, and their dispersion across different end markets and geographic areas. Receivables are generally evaluated at a portfolio level based on these characteristics. As receivables are generally unsecured, we maintain an allowance for credit losses using a forward-looking approach based on historical losses and consideration of current and expected future economic conditions. Historically, we have observed that the likelihood of loss increases when receivables have aged beyond 180 days. When a receivable is deemed uncollectible, the write-off is recorded as a reduction to allowance for credit losses. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized approximately $0.5 million of credit loss expense and wrote off $1.0 million related to our trade receivables that are in the scope of ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, bringing the allowance for credit losses balance from $10.5 million at December 31, 2021 to $10.0 million at March 31, 2022. This balance excludes the general reserve for operating lease receivables that is permitted under ASC 450, Contingencies.

In January 2021, we completed the acquisition of a company that owns and operates proprietary railcar cleaning technology systems. This transaction was recorded as a business combination within the Rail Products Group, based on valuations of the acquired assets and liabilities at their acquisition date fair value using Level 3 inputs. The acquisition did not have a significant impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. This transaction resulted in goodwill of $7.0 million. There was no acquisition activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Goodwill

As of both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying amount of our goodwill totaled $154.2 million, which is primarily attributable to the Rail Products Group.

Warranties

We provide various express, limited product warranties that generally range from one year to five years depending on the product. The warranty costs are estimated using a two-step approach. First, an engineering estimate is made for the cost of all claims that have been asserted by customers. Second, based on historical claims experience, a cost is accrued for all products still within a warranty period for which no claims have been filed. We provide for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized related to products covered by warranties and assess the adequacy of the resulting reserves on a quarterly basis. The changes in the accruals for warranties for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2022		2021
		(in millions)

Ending balance		$	3.2	$	6.9

Note 2. Discontinued Operations

Sale of Highway Products Business

In the fourth quarter of 2021, we completed the sale of our highway products business, THP. The sale closed on December 31, 2021, and we received net proceeds of approximately $364.7 million, after certain adjustments and closing costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded a loss of $1.5 million ($1.1 million, net of income taxes) related to additional transaction costs incurred in the period. We concluded that the sale of THP represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Accordingly, we have presented the operating results and cash flows of THP as discontinued operations for all periods in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Table of Contents

In connection with the sale, Trinity and Rush Hour entered into various agreements to effect the transaction and provide a framework for their relationship after the separation, including a purchase and sale agreement, a transition services agreement, and a lease agreement. The transition services have various durations ranging between one and eighteen months. We have determined that the continuing cash flows generated by these agreements do not constitute significant continuing involvement in the operations of THP. The amount billed for transition services provided under the above agreements is not expected to be material to our results of operations. Additionally, in connection with the sale of THP, the Company has agreed to indemnify Rush Hour for certain liabilities related to the highway products business, including certain liabilities resulting from or arising out of the ET-Plus® System, a highway guardrail end-terminal system (the “ET Plus”). Consequently, results from discontinued operations below include certain legal expenses that were directly attributable to the highway products business, which were previously reported in continuing operations. Similar expenses incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and that may be incurred in the future related to these retained obligations will likewise be reported in discontinued operations. See Note 14 for further information regarding obligations retained in connection with the THP sale.

The following is a summary of THP's operating results included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:


	Three Months Ended March 31,

In addition to the THP operating results above, a loss of $0.4 million included in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2021 related to the spin-off of Arcosa, Inc.

Note 3. Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Accounting

Derivative Instruments

We use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates, both in anticipation of future debt issuances and to offset interest rate variability of certain floating rate debt issuances outstanding. We also use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are accounted for by recording the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss ("AOCI") as a separate component of stockholders' equity. These accumulated gains or losses are reclassified into earnings in the periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. We continuously monitor our derivative positions and the credit ratings of our counterparties and do not anticipate losses due to non-performance. See Note 8 for a description of our debt instruments.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. An entity is required to establish a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are listed below.

Table of Contents

Level 1 – This level is defined as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Our cash equivalents and restricted cash are instruments of the U.S. Treasury or highly-rated money market mutual funds. The assets measured as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:


	Level 1
	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
	(in millions)
Assets:
Cash equivalents	$	80.5	$	11.4
Restricted cash	208.2		135.1
Total assets	$	288.7	$	146.5

Level 2 – This level is defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Interest rate hedges are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty. Foreign currency hedges are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty, which are based on currency spot and forward rates and forward points. The assets and liabilities measured as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:


	Level 2
	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
	(in millions)
Assets:
Foreign currency hedge (1)	$	1.4	$	—

Total assets	$	1.4	$	—

Liabilities:

Foreign currency hedge (2)	—		0.1
Total liabilities	$	0.7	$	21.1

(1) Included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(2) Included in accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Level 3 – This level is defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we have no assets measured as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

See Note 8 for the estimated fair values of our debt instruments. The fair values of all other financial instruments are estimated to approximate carrying value.

Note 4. Segment Information

We report our operating results in 2 reportable segments: (1) the Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group, which owns and operates a fleet of railcars and provides third-party fleet leasing, management, and administrative services; and (2) the Rail Products Group, which manufactures and sells railcars and related parts and components, and provides railcar maintenance and modification services. Following the sale of THP, which was previously reported within All Other, we have combined the results of the prior Corporate and All Other groupings into a single Corporate and other grouping. The remaining activity previously reported in All Other primarily includes legal, environmental, and maintenance costs associated with non-operating facilities. Results of prior periods have been recast to reflect these changes and present results on a comparable basis.

Gains and losses from the sale of property, plant, and equipment are included in the operating profit of each respective segment. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") regularly reviews the operating results of our reportable segments in order to assess performance and allocate resources. Our CODM does not consider restructuring activities when evaluating segment operating results; therefore, restructuring activities are not allocated to segment profit or loss.

Table of Contents

Sales and related net profits ("deferred profit") from the Rail Products Group to the Leasing Group are recorded in the Rail Products Group and eliminated in consolidation and are reflected in "Eliminations – Lease Subsidiary" in the tables below. Sales between these groups are recorded at prices comparable to those charged to external customers, taking into consideration quantity, features, and production demand. Amortization of deferred profit on railcars sold to the Leasing Group is included in the operating profit of the Leasing Group, resulting in the recognition of depreciation expense based on our original manufacturing cost of the railcars. Lease portfolio sales are included in the Leasing Group, with related gains and losses computed based on the net book value of the original manufacturing cost of the railcars.

The financial information for these segments is shown in the tables below (in millions). We operate principally in North America.

Note 5. Partially-Owned Leasing Subsidiaries

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Trinity Industries Leasing Company ("TILC"), we formed 2 subsidiaries, TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013, for the purpose of providing railcar leasing services in North America for institutional investors. Each of TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013 are direct, partially-owned subsidiaries of TILC in which we have a controlling interest. Each is governed by a 7-member board of representatives, 2 of whom are designated by TILC. TILC is the agent of each of TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013 and, as such, has been delegated the authority, power, and discretion to take certain actions on behalf of the respective companies.

At March 31, 2022, the carrying value of our investment in TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013 totaled $139.8 million. Our weighted average ownership interest in TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013 is 38% while the remaining 62% weighted average interest is owned by third-party, investor-owned funds. The investment in our partially-owned leasing subsidiaries is eliminated in consolidation.

Each of TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013 has wholly-owned subsidiaries that are the owners of railcars acquired from our Rail Products and Leasing Groups. TRIP Holdings has wholly-owned subsidiaries known as Triumph Rail LLC ("Triumph Rail") and TRIP Railcar Co. LLC ("TRIP Railcar Co."). RIV 2013 has a wholly owned-subsidiary known as TRP 2021 LLC ("TRP-2021"). TILC is the contractual servicer for Triumph Rail, TRIP Railcar Co., and TRP-2021, with the authority to manage and service each entity's owned railcars. Our controlling interest in each of TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013 results from our combined role as both equity member and agent/servicer. The noncontrolling interest included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets represents the non-Trinity equity interest in these partially-owned subsidiaries.

Trinity has no obligation to guarantee performance under any of our partially-owned subsidiaries' (or their respective subsidiaries') debt agreements, guarantee any railcar residual values, shield any parties from losses or guarantee minimum yields.

The assets of each of Triumph Rail, TRIP Railcar Co., and TRP-2021 may only be used to satisfy the particular subsidiary's liabilities, and the creditors of each of Triumph Rail, TRIP Railcar Co., and TRP-2021 have recourse only to the particular subsidiary's assets. Each of TILC and the third-party equity investors receive distributions from TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013, when available, in proportion to its respective equity interests, and has an interest in the net assets of the partially-owned subsidiaries upon a liquidation event in the same proportion. TILC is paid fees for the services it provides to Triumph Rail, TRIP Railcar Co., and TRP-2021 and has the potential to earn certain incentive fees. There are no remaining equity commitments with respect to TRIP Holdings or RIV 2013.

See Note 8 regarding TRIP Holdings and RIV 2013, including the redemption and refinancing of the debt of their respective subsidiaries.

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

In August 2021, the Company and Wafra, Inc. (“Wafra”), a global alternative investment manager, announced a new railcar investment vehicle (“RIV”) program between Trinity and certain funds managed by Wafra (“Wafra Funds”). As part of this program, a joint venture was formed, Signal Rail Holdings LLC (“Signal Rail”), which is owned 90% by Wafra Funds and 10% by TILC. Signal Rail or its subsidiaries are expected to invest in diversified portfolios of leased railcars originated by TILC targeting up to $1 billion in total acquisitions over an expected three-year investment period. TILC will service all railcars owned by Signal Rail.

Upon consideration under the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model of ASC 810, Trinity has concluded that Signal Rail meets the definition of a VIE. TILC has variable interests in Signal Rail arising from its 10% equity ownership position and its role as a service provider. We determined that Trinity is not the primary beneficiary and therefore does not consolidate this entity as we do not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance. We will absorb portions of Signal Rail’s expected losses and/or receive portions of expected residual returns commensurate with our 10% equity interest in Signal Rail.

Our investment in Signal Rail is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting. At March 31, 2022, the carrying value of TILC’s equity investment in Signal Rail was $6.4 million, which is included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The carrying value of this investment, together with any potential future investments described above, collectively represent our maximum exposure in Signal Rail.

Estimated Fair Value of Debt – The estimated fair value of our 4.55% senior notes due 2024 ("Senior Notes") is based on a quoted market price in a market with little activity (Level 2 input). The estimated fair values of our secured railcar equipment notes are based on our estimate of their fair value using unobservable input values provided by a third party (Level 3 inputs). The respective carrying values of our revolving credit facility, 2017 promissory notes, TILC warehouse facility, and TRIP Railcar Co. term loan approximate fair value because the interest rate adjusts to the market interest rate. The estimated fair values of our long-term debt are as follows:


	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
	(in millions)
Level 1	$	1,736.1	$	1,645.7
Level 2	406.5		420.8
Level 3	3,046.3		3,215.4
	$	5,188.9	$	5,281.9

Revolving Credit Facility – We have a $450.0 million unsecured corporate revolving credit facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had total borrowings of $70.0 million and total repayments of $20.0 million under the revolving credit facility. Additionally, we had outstanding letters of credit issued in an aggregate amount of $28.3 million. Of the $371.7 million remaining unused amount, $192.1 million was available for borrowing as of March 31, 2022. The outstanding letters of credit as of March 31, 2022 are scheduled to expire in July 2022. The revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate which resulted in an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%, with a LIBOR floor of 0.30%, as of March 31, 2022. A commitment fee accrues on the average daily unused portion of the revolving facility at the rate of 0.175% to 0.40% (0.25% as of March 31, 2022).

Table of Contents

The revolving credit facility requires the maintenance of ratios related to minimum interest coverage for the leasing and manufacturing operations and maximum leverage. In December 2021, we amended our revolving credit facility to increase the maximum leverage ratio through June 30, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants.

TILC Warehouse Loan Facility – TILC has a $1.0 billion warehouse loan facility, which was established to finance railcars owned by TILC. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had total borrowings of $57.2 million and total repayments of $1.6 million under the TILC warehouse loan facility. The entire unused facility amount of $382.6 million was available as of March 31, 2022 based on the amount of warehouse-eligible, unpledged equipment. Advances under the facility bear interest at a defined index rate plus a facility margin of 185 basis points, for an all-in interest rate of 2.09% at March 31, 2022.

Subsequent event – TRL-2022 – On April 20, 2022, Trinity Rail Leasing 2022 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("TRL-2022") and a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company owned through TILC, entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated April 20, 2022 (the "Note Purchase Agreement"). The Note Purchase Agreement provides for the issuance and sale of an aggregate principal amount of $244.8 million of its Series 2022-1 Class A Green Secured Railcar Equipment Notes (the "TRL-2022 Notes"). The TRL-2022 Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.55%, will be payable monthly, and will have a stated final maturity date of May 20, 2052. The TRL-2022 Notes will be obligations of TRL-2022 and will be non-recourse to Trinity. The obligations will be secured by a portfolio of railcars and operating leases thereon, certain cash reserves, and other assets to be acquired and owned by TRL-2022.

Terms and conditions of our other long-term debt, including recourse and non-recourse provisions and scheduled maturities, are described in Note 8 of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Note 9. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 23.3%, which differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes, foreign taxes, non-deductible executive compensation, and the benefits of excess deductions on equity compensation.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded income tax expense of $4.0 million on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $1.0 million, primarily due to an adjustment to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") carryback benefit previously recognized.

The total income tax receivable position as of March 31, 2022 was $4.7 million.

Our tax years through 2019 are effectively settled. The audit of our 2013 tax year was accepted by the Joint Committee of Taxation with no unresolved issues. We have received a partial acceptance of our 2020 tax return and expect to receive a final acceptance during 2022. We have state tax returns that are under audit in the normal course of business, and our Mexican subsidiaries' tax returns statutes of limitations remain open for auditing 2016 forward. We believe we are appropriately reserved for any potential matters.

Note 10. Employee Retirement Plans

Our defined contribution expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $2.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

The net periodic benefit cost related to our Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan was $0.2 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost are included in other, net (income) expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Pension Plan Termination

In September 2019, our Board of Directors approved the termination of the Trinity Industries, Inc. Consolidated Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan"), effective December 31, 2019. The Pension Plan was settled in the fourth quarter of 2020, which resulted in the Company no longer having any remaining funded pension plan obligations. Upon settlement, we recognized a pre-tax non-cash pension settlement charge in the fourth quarter of 2020 of $151.5 million, which was inclusive of all unamortized losses previously recorded in AOCI.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we used $1.2 million to fund pension administrative expenses required to finalize the settlement of the Pension Plan, which is included in other, net (income) expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no pension administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The remaining surplus of the Pension Plan of $0.6 million will be used to fund final pension administrative expenses. We expect that any remaining surplus would be used for other corporate purposes, subject to applicable taxes.

Reclassifications of before-tax net actuarial gains/(losses) of defined benefit plans are included in other, net (income) expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 12. Common Stock and Stock-Based Compensation

Stockholders' Equity

In September 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program effective September 9, 2021 through December 31, 2022. The new share repurchase program authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $250.0 million of its common stock. In December 2021, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the "ASR") to repurchase $125.0 million of our common stock. Approximately 3.3 million shares repurchased as part of the ASR on December 31, 2021 were delivered to the Company in January 2022 in accordance with normal settlement practices, representing approximately 80% of the total notional value of the ASR. The ASR is expected to be completed during the third quarter of 2022, at which time any remaining shares will be delivered to the Company. Share repurchase activity under the authorized program is as follows:


	Shares Repurchased			Remaining Authorization to Repurchase
Period	Number of Shares	Cost (in millions)		Cost (in millions)
September 9, 2021 Authorization				$	250.0
September 9, 2021 through September 30, 2021	—	$	—	$	250.0
October 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021	5,155,491	151.9		$	98.1	(1)
January 1, 2022 through March 31, 2022	—	—		$	98.1	(1)


Total	5,155,491	$	151.9

(1) Remaining authorization includes $25.0 million of committed share repurchases under the terms of the ASR. Approximately $73.1 million of the share repurchase program will remain after the completion of the ASR.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, share repurchases totaled 1.3 million, at a cost of approximately $36.8 million, under a previous share repurchase program, which was completed in the third quarter of 2021. Certain shares of stock repurchased during March 2021, totaling $2.9 million, were cash settled in April 2021 in accordance with normal settlement practices.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense totaled approximately $5.1 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company's annual grant of share-based awards generally occurs in the second quarter under our 2004 Fourth Amended and Restated Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "Plan”). Our stock options have contractual terms of ten years and become exercisable over a three-year period. Expense related to stock options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Expense related to restricted stock units ("RSUs") issued to eligible employees under the Plan is recognized ratably over the vesting period, generally between three years and four years. Beginning in 2020, certain RSU grants provide for full vesting when the award recipients retire having reached 60 years of age and having provided at least 10 years of service to the Company, provided that the awards remain outstanding for a period of six months from the date of grant. The expense for these awards is recognized over the applicable service period for each of the eligible award recipients. Expense related to RSUs and restricted stock awards ("RSAs") granted to non-employee directors under the Plan is recognized ratably over the vesting period, generally one year. Expense related to performance units is recognized ratably from their award date to the end of the performance period, generally three years.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation awards granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022:


	Number of Shares Granted	Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value per Award

Restricted stock units	648	$	30.87

Performance units	108,127	$	38.26

Note 13. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc. per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Trinity remaining after allocation to unvested restricted shares by the weighted average number of basic common shares outstanding for the period. Except when the effect would be antidilutive, the calculation of diluted EPS includes the net impact of potentially dilutive common shares. The Company has certain unvested RSAs that participate in dividends on a nonforfeitable basis and are therefore considered to be participating securities. Consequently, diluted net income (loss) attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc. per common share is calculated under both the two-class method and the treasury stock method, and the more dilutive of the two calculations is presented. There were 2.4 million dilutive equivalents from restricted stock and stock options excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as we incurred a loss from continuing operations for the period, and any effect on loss per common share would have been antidilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc.


	Three Months Ended March 31,

Note 14. Contingencies

Highway products litigation

We previously reported the filing of a False Claims Act (“FCA”) complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division (“District Court”) styled Joshua Harman, on behalf of the United States of America, Plaintiff/Relator v. Trinity Industries, Inc., Defendant, Case No. 2:12-cv-00089-JRG (E.D. Tex.). In this case, in which the U.S. Government declined to intervene, the relator, Mr. Joshua Harman, alleged the Company violated the FCA pertaining to sales of the ET Plus. On October 20, 2014, a trial in this case concluded with a jury verdict stating that the Company and THP “knowingly made, used or caused to be made or used, a false record or statement material to a false or fraudulent claim," and the District Court entered judgment on the verdict in the total amount of $682.4 million. On September 29, 2017, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ("Fifth Circuit") reversed the District Court’s $682.4 million judgment and rendered judgment as a matter of law in favor of the Company and THP. On January 7, 2019, the United States Supreme Court denied Mr. Harman's petition for certiorari seeking review of the Fifth Circuit's decision. The denial of Mr. Harman's petition ended this action.

Pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement related to the sale of THP, the Company has agreed to indemnify Rush Hour for certain liabilities related to the highway products business, including those liabilities resulting from or arising out of (a) the proceedings set forth under “State actions” and "Missouri class action" below and (b) any other proceedings to the extent resulting from or arising out of ET Plus systems or specified ET Plus component parts that are both (i) manufactured prior to December 31, 2021, and (ii) sold in the United States on or prior to April 30, 2022, or related warranty obligations with respect thereto.

State actions

Mr. Harman also has a separate state qui tam action currently pending pursuant to the Virginia Fraud Against Taxpayers Act ("VFATA") (Commonwealth of Virginia ex rel. Joshua M. Harman v. Trinity Industries, Inc. and Trinity Highway Products, LLC, Case No. CL13-698, in the Circuit Court, Richmond, Virginia). In this matter, Mr. Harman alleged the Company violated the VFATA pertaining to sales of the ET Plus, and he is seeking damages, civil penalties, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. The Commonwealth of Virginia Attorney General has intervened in the Virginia matter, which is scheduled for trial on April 17, 2023. The Company believes that the claims in this matter are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against all allegations.

In a similar Tennessee state qui tam action filed by Mr. Harman (State of Tennessee ex rel. Joshua M. Harman v. Trinity Industries, Inc., and Trinity Highway Products, LLC, Case No. 14C2652, in the Circuit Court for Davidson County, Tennessee), Mr. Harman alleged the Company violated the Tennessee False Claim Act pertaining to sales of the ET Plus, and he is seeking damages, civil penalties, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. The State of Tennessee Attorney General has filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in this matter. On January 10, 2022, the trial court granted Trinity’s Motion to Dismiss Harman’s Second Amended Complaint and entered an order dismissing Mr. Harman’s complaint with prejudice. On February 7, 2022, Mr. Harman filed a Notice of Appeal of the trial court's order dismissing the case, which remains pending. The Company believes that the claims in this matter are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against all allegations.

In a similar New Jersey state qui tam action (State of New Jersey ex rel. Joshua M. Harman v. Trinity Industries, Inc. and Trinity Highway Products, LLC, Case No.L-1344-14, in the Superior Court of New Jersey Law Division: Mercer County) that was previously dismissed by the trial court, Mr. Harman sought leave to file an amended complaint pursuant to the New Jersey False Claims Act. On February 16, 2022, the trial court denied Mr. Harman’s motion. On March 9, 2022, Mr. Harman filed a motion for reconsideration of the trial court’s order denying leave to file an amended complaint. The Company believes that the claims in this matter are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against all allegations.

Table of Contents

In a similar Massachusetts state qui tam action filed by Mr. Harman (Commonwealth of Massachusetts ex rel. Joshua M. Harman Qui Tam v. Trinity Industries, Inc. and Trinity Highway Products, LLC, Case No. 1484-CV-02364, in the Superior Court Department of the Trial Court), Mr. Harman alleged the Company violated the Massachusetts False Claims Act pertaining to sales of the ET Plus, and he is seeking damages, civil penalties, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. The State of Massachusetts Attorney General has filed a Notice of Election to Decline Intervention in this matter. The parties have reached an agreement in principle to settle all claims in this matter without any admission of liability or fault for $5.0 million. Defendants have denied and continue to deny specifically each and all of the claims and contentions alleged in this case. The settlement is subject to completion of a formal settlement agreement and final court approval. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded a $5.0 million charge and a corresponding liability for this matter, which was included in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in our Consolidated Statement of Operations and is included in the amounts described below under “Other matters.” Although the parties have reached an agreement in principle to settle this litigation, there is, however, no assurance that a final settlement will be reached or, if a settlement is reached, that the charge, which represents the Company’s current best estimate of the costs to resolve this matter, will represent the actual costs of the settlement. If a settlement is unable to be reached, the Company will continue to vigorously defend the action.

As previously reported, state qui tam actions filed by Mr. Harman in the states of Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, Rhode Island, and California were dismissed.

Based on information currently available to the Company and previously disclosed, we currently do not believe that a loss is probable in the Virginia, Tennessee and New Jersey state qui tam actions described under "State actions," therefore no accrual has been included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. Because of the complexity of these actions as well as the current status of certain of these actions, we are not able to estimate a range of possible losses with respect to any one or more of these actions. While the financial impacts of these state actions are currently unknown, they could be material.

Missouri class action

The Company has been served in a lawsuit filed November 5, 2015, titled Jackson County, Missouri, individually and on behalf of a class of others similarly situated vs. Trinity Industries, Inc. and Trinity Highway Products, LLC, Case No. 1516-CV23684 (Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri). The case is being brought by plaintiff for and on behalf of itself and all Missouri counties with a population of 10,000 or more persons, including the City of St. Louis, and the State of Missouri’s transportation authority. The plaintiff alleges that the Company and THP did not disclose design changes to the ET Plus and these allegedly undisclosed design changes made the ET Plus allegedly defective, unsafe, and unreasonably dangerous. The plaintiff alleges product liability negligence, product liability strict liability, and negligently supplying dangerous instrumentality for supplier’s business purposes. The plaintiff seeks compensatory damages, interest, attorneys' fees and costs, and in the alternative plaintiff seeks a declaratory judgment that the ET Plus is defective, the Company’s conduct was unlawful, and class-wide costs and expenses associated with removing and replacing the ET Plus throughout Missouri. On December 6, 2017, the Court granted plaintiff's Motion for Class Certification, certifying a class of Missouri counties with populations of 10,000 or more persons, including the City of St. Louis and the State of Missouri's transportation authority that have or had ET Plus guardrail end terminals with 4-inch wide guide channels installed on roadways they own or maintain.

The parties have reached an agreement in principle to settle all claims in this case without any admission of liability or fault. Defendants have denied and continue to deny specifically each and all of the claims and contentions alleged in this case. The settlement is subject to completion of a formal settlement agreement and final court approval. In accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, the Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $23.9 million ($18.3 million, net of income taxes) during the year ended December 31, 2021, which was included in income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in our Consolidated Statement of Operations, based on the Company’s assessment that a settlement is probable and the estimated costs to resolve this action. Although the parties have reached an agreement in principle to settle this litigation, there is, however, no assurance that a final settlement will be reached or, if a settlement is reached, that the charge, which represents the Company’s current best estimate of the costs to resolve this matter, will represent the actual costs of the settlement. If a settlement is unable to be reached, the Company will continue to vigorously defend the action. The accrual and related range of reasonably possible loss related to this matter are included in the amounts described below under "Other matters."

Table of Contents

Product liability cases

The Company is currently defending product liability lawsuits in several different states that are alleged to involve the ET Plus as well as other products manufactured by THP. These cases are diverse in light of the randomness of collisions in general and the fact that each accident involving a roadside device, such as an end terminal, or any other fixed object along the highway, has its own unique facts and circumstances. The Company carries general liability insurance to mitigate the impact of adverse judgment exposures in these product liability cases. To the extent that the Company believes that a loss is probable with respect to these product liability cases, the accrual for such losses is included in the amounts described below under "Other matters".

Other matters

The Company is involved in claims and lawsuits incidental to our business arising from various matters, including product warranty, personal injury, environmental issues, workplace laws, and various governmental regulations. The Company evaluates its exposure to such claims and suits periodically and establishes accruals for these contingencies when a range of loss can be reasonably estimated. The range of reasonably possible losses for such matters is $41.6 million to $59.4 million, which includes our rights in indemnity and recourse to third parties of approximately $10.3 million, which is recorded in other assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2022. This range includes any amounts related to the Highway Products litigation matters described above in the section titled “Highway products litigation." At March 31, 2022, total accruals of $42.0 million, including environmental and workplace matters described below, are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company believes any additional liability would not be material to its financial position or results of operations.

Trinity is subject to remedial orders and federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations relating to the environment and the workplace. The Company has reserved $1.3 million to cover our probable and estimable liabilities with respect to the investigations, assessments, and remedial responses to such matters, taking into account currently available information and our contractual rights to indemnification and recourse to third parties. However, estimates of liability arising from future proceedings, assessments, or remediation are inherently imprecise. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not become involved in future litigation or other proceedings involving the environment and the workplace or, if we are found to be responsible or liable in any such litigation or proceeding, that such costs would not be material to the Company. We believe that we are currently in substantial compliance with environmental and workplace laws and regulations.

Georgia tornado

On March 26, 2021, a tornado damaged the Company’s rail maintenance facility in Cartersville, Georgia. We have incurred costs related to cleanup and damage remediation activities in order for the facility to resume operations in the second quarter of 2021. We believe our insurance coverage is sufficient to cover property damage costs related to the event. To date, we have received total advanced payments from insurance of approximately $17.8 million, which includes $8.1 million for reimbursement of cleanup and damage remediation expenditures. As of March 31, 2022, we have utilized $6.5 million of the advanced payments from insurance towards new capital expenditures in support of the reconstruction efforts.

During the first quarter of 2022, we recorded an insurance receivable of approximately $7.3 million for additional property damage recoveries that we expect to be reimbursed under the terms of our insurance policy, and we recorded a corresponding gain, net of the applicable deductible, of $6.4 million, which is included in the gains on dispositions of other property line in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Any additional property damage insurance proceeds received in excess of the net book value of property lost and related cleanup costs will be accounted for as gains in future quarters.

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (or statements otherwise made by the Company or on the Company’s behalf from time to time in other reports, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), news releases, conferences, website postings or otherwise) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, future financial performances, estimates, projections, goals, and forecasts. Trinity uses the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” and similar expressions to identify these forward-looking statements. Potential factors, which could cause our actual results of operations to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, include, among others:

•market conditions and customer demand for our business products and services;

•the cyclical nature of the industries in which we compete;

Company Overview

Trinity Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Trinity,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or "us") own businesses that are leading providers of railcar products and services in North America. Our rail-related businesses market their railcar products and services under the trade name TrinityRail®. The TrinityRail platform provides railcar leasing and management services, railcar manufacturing, and railcar maintenance and modification services.

We concluded that the sale of THP represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Accordingly, we have presented the operating results and cash flows of THP as discontinued operations for all periods in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Results of prior periods have been recast to reflect these changes and present results on a comparable basis. In connection with the sale of THP, we agreed to indemnify Rush Hour for certain liabilities related to the ET-Plus® System, a highway guardrail end-terminal system (the “ET Plus”). Consequently, results from discontinued operations include certain legal expenses that were directly attributable to the highway products business, which were previously reported in continuing operations. Similar expenses incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and that may be incurred in the future related to these retained obligations will likewise be reported in discontinued operations. See Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information related to the sale of THP and Note 14 for information regarding the retained liabilities.

Following the sale of THP, we report our operating results in two reportable segments: (1) the Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group (the "Leasing Group"), which owns and operates a fleet of railcars and provides third-party fleet leasing, management, and administrative services; and (2) the Rail Products Group, which manufactures and sells railcars and related parts and components, and provides railcar maintenance and modification services. Additionally, we have combined the results of the prior Corporate and All Other groupings into a single Corporate and other grouping. The remaining activity previously reported in All Other primarily includes legal, environmental, and maintenance costs associated with non-operating facilities. Results of prior periods have been recast to reflect these changes and present results on a comparable basis.

Executive Summary

Recent Market Developments

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted global and North American economic conditions. The social and economic effects of the pandemic have been widespread and are ongoing. We continue to monitor the operational and financial impacts of the pandemic and other economic factors. Although we have not experienced significant interruptions to our daily operations or a material impact to our operating costs, the economic pressures created by the pandemic have negatively impacted our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022. While we continue to see signs of economic recovery, we are monitoring the evolving impacts of COVID-19 variants on the economy and our workforce, including reduced employee availability, and expect that our results of operations may remain under pressure in the near term.

Please refer to the "Forward-Looking Statements" section above and Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding the potential impacts of COVID-19 on our business.

Other Cyclical and Seasonal Trends Impacting Our Business

The industries in which our customers operate are cyclical in nature. Weaknesses in certain sectors of the North American and global economy may make it more difficult to sell or lease certain types of railcars. Additionally, changes in commodity prices, including fluctuations in the crude oil market, or changes in demand for certain commodities, could impact customer demand for various types of railcars. Further, disruptions in the global supply chain have impacted demand for, and the costs of, certain of our products and services. We continuously assess demand for our products and services and take steps to rationalize and diversify our leased railcar portfolio and align our operating capacity appropriately. We diligently evaluate the creditworthiness of our customers and monitor performance of relevant market sectors; however, weaknesses in any of these market sectors could affect the financial viability of our underlying Leasing Group customers, which could continue to negatively impact our recurring leasing revenues and operating profits.

Table of Contents

Although railcar loading volumes, levels of railcars in storage, and orders for new railcar equipment have improved, the recovery of railcar lease rates and utilization is ongoing. We continue to believe that our rail platform is designed to respond to cyclical changes in demand and perform throughout the railcar cycle.

Steel prices and labor costs have increased significantly since the fourth quarter of 2020 and are major components of our cost of revenues. We typically use contract-specific purchasing practices, existing supplier commitments, contractual price escalation provisions, and other arrangements with our customers to reduce the impact of plate and coil steel price volatility on our operating profit. However, higher steel prices have resulted in increases in the cost of certain railcar components and could reduce demand for new railcars. Additionally, although we remain committed to attracting and retaining a highly skilled and diverse workforce, labor shortages, high turnover, and increases in labor costs have negatively impacted our operations. We continue to monitor the impact of potential margin and operating profit headwinds resulting from these factors.

As a result of disruptions in the global supply chain, we have recently experienced temporary shortages of materials used to manufacture or repair certain railcar types, which has impacted our ability to timely deliver these railcars to our customers. While we believe these shortages are short-term in nature, we will continue to monitor the situation and take appropriate steps to mitigate the impact on our production schedules and delivery timelines.

Due to their transactional nature, lease portfolio sales are the primary driver of fluctuations in results in the Leasing Group.

Discussion of Consolidated Results

Revenues – Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $472.7 million, representing an increase of $142.0 million, or 42.9%, over the prior year period primarily due to higher external deliveries in the Rail Products Group.

Cost of revenues – Our cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $398.5 million, representing an increase of $152.2 million, or 61.8%, over the prior year period primarily due to higher costs associated with external deliveries in the Rail Products Group and higher fleet operating costs and increased depreciation in the Leasing Group.

Selling, engineering, and administrative expenses – Selling, engineering, and administrative expenses were flat for the three months ended March 31, 2022 when compared to the prior year period.

Gains on dispositions of property – Gains on dispositions of property increased by $13.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, when compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher lease portfolio sales activity. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded a $6.4 million gain related to insurance recoveries in excess of net book value for assets damaged by a tornado at the Company’s rail maintenance facility in Cartersville, Georgia in the first quarter of 2021. See Note 14 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Table of Contents

Operating profit – Operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $54.8 million, representing an increase of $3.3 million, or 6.4%, from the prior year period primarily due to higher lease portfolio sales activity, partially offset by higher costs associated with external deliveries in the Rail Products Group, as well as higher fleet operating costs and increased depreciation in the Leasing Group. Operating profit was favorably impacted in the current year period by gains related to insurance recoveries from damage sustained at the Company’s rail maintenance facility in Cartersville, Georgia in the first quarter of 2021.

For further information regarding the operating results of individual segments, see "Segment Discussion" below.

Interest expense, net – Interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $43.5 million compared to $51.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily driven by lower overall borrowing costs associated with the Company's debt facilities resulting from debt refinancing activity during the second quarter of 2021, partially offset by higher overall average debt.

Income taxes – The effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 23.3%, which differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes, foreign taxes, non-deductible executive compensation, and the benefits of excess deductions on equity compensation.

Total revenues for the Railcar Leasing and Management Services Group decreased by 0.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior year period. Leasing and management revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were impacted by lower rental rates and reduced lease fleet size, partially offset by higher utilization, which resulted in relatively flat revenues when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Operating profit for the Leasing Group increased by 1.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior year period and was favorably impacted by higher lease portfolio sale activity. Leasing and management operating profit decreased by 11.2% primarily due to higher fleet operating costs resulting from increases in the cost and volume of planned maintenance activities, as well as increased depreciation primarily related to sustainable railcar conversions.

Table of Contents

The Leasing Group generally uses its non-recourse warehouse loan facility or cash to provide initial funding for a portion of the purchase price of the railcars. After initial funding, the Leasing Group may obtain long-term financing for the railcars in the lease fleet through non-recourse asset-backed securities; long-term non-recourse operating leases pursuant to sale-leaseback transactions; long-term recourse debt such as equipment trust certificates; long-term non-recourse promissory notes; or third-party equity.

(1) Includes sustainable railcar conversion revenues of $49.8 million, representing 445 railcars, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, of which $27.8 million, representing 250 railcars, related to external customers and $22.0 million, representing 195 railcars, related to the Leasing Group.

Revenues and cost of revenues for the Rail Products Group increased for the three months ended March 31, 2022 by 49.8% and 48.2%, respectively, when compared to the prior year period. Revenues in our rail products business increased as a result of higher deliveries, while revenues in our maintenance services revenues decreased as a result of fewer repairs and HM-251 modifications. In our rail products business, the increase in cost of revenues was driven by higher deliveries and input cost inflation, as well as incremental costs associated with production line changeovers. In our maintenance services business, cost of revenues was negatively impacted by labor shortages leading to operating inefficiencies.

Operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was negatively impacted by deliveries of orders taken at the bottom of the cycle. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, operating profit was favorably impacted by a $6.4 million gain related to insurance recoveries in excess of net book value for assets damaged by a tornado at the Company’s rail maintenance facility in Cartersville, Georgia in the first quarter of 2021.

Information related to our Rail Products Group backlog of new railcars is as follows. In addition to the amounts below, as of March 31, 2022, our backlog related to sustainable railcar conversions totaled $128.2 million, representing 1,275 railcars.

Table of Contents

Total backlog dollars increased by 91.5% when compared to the prior year period primarily from an increase in orders received. Approximately 59.5% of our railcar backlog value is expected to be delivered during 2022, 26.7% in 2023, with the remainder to be delivered thereafter into 2025. The orders in our backlog from the Leasing Group are fully supported by lease commitments with external customers. The final amount of backlog attributable to the Leasing Group may vary by the time of delivery as customers may choose to change their procurement decision.

Debt instruments that we have utilized include the TILC warehouse facility, senior notes, convertible subordinated notes, asset-backed securities, non-recourse promissory notes, sale-leaseback transactions, and our revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2022, we have total committed liquidity of $717.9 million. Our total available liquidity includes: $143.2 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents; $192.1 million unused and available under our revolving credit facility; and $382.6 million unused and available under the TILC warehouse facility based on the amount of warehouse-eligible, unpledged equipment. We believe we have access to adequate capital resources to fund operating requirements and are an active participant in the capital markets.

Liquidity Highlights

Dividend Payments – We paid $19.1 million in dividends to our common stockholders during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Share Repurchase Authorization – In September 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program effective September 9, 2021 through December 31, 2022. The new share repurchase program authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $250.0 million of its common stock. In December 2021, using a portion of the proceeds from the sale of THP, we entered into an ASR to repurchase $125.0 million of our common stock. Approximately 3.3 million shares repurchased as part of the ASR on December 31, 2021 were delivered to the Company in January 2022 in accordance with normal settlement practices, representing approximately 80% of the total notional value of the ASR. The ASR is expected to be completed during the third quarter of 2022, at which time any remaining shares will be delivered to the Company. Share repurchase activity under the authorized program is as follows:


	Shares Repurchased			Remaining Authorization to Repurchase
Period	Number of shares	Cost (in millions)		Cost (in millions)
September 9, 2021 Authorization				$	250.0

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $28.5 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $69.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The changes in our operating assets and liabilities are as follows:

The changes in our operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net use of $33.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to a net source of $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Operating assets were impacted by cyclical shifts in anticipation of higher volumes of railcar deliveries in future periods, as well as continued supply chain challenges.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $0.2 million compared to $94.9 million of net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Significant investing activities are as follows:

•We made a net investment in our lease fleet of $13.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $90.6 million in the prior year period. Our investment in the lease fleet primarily includes new railcar additions and railcar modifications, net of deferred profit, and secondary market purchases; and is net of proceeds from lease portfolio sales.

•We acquired a company that owns and operates proprietary railcar cleaning technology systems during the three months ended March 31, 2021 for net cash of $16.6 million. We had no acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $28.7 million compared to $83.4 million of net cash provided by financing activities for the same period in 2021. Significant financing activities are as follows:

•During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had total borrowings of $127.2 million and total repayments of $73.0 million, for net proceeds of $54.2 million, primarily from debt proceeds to support our investment in the lease fleet. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had total borrowings of $327.7 million and total repayments of $185.3 million, for net proceeds of $142.4 million, primarily from debt proceeds to support our investment in the lease fleet.

•We paid $19.1 million and $23.2 million in dividends to our common stockholders during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

•We repurchased common stock totaling $35.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Certain shares of stock repurchased during March 2021, totaling $2.9 million, were cash settled in April 2021 in accordance with normal settlement practices. There were no shares repurchased during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Current Debt Obligations

The revolving credit facility contains several financial covenants that require the maintenance of ratios related to minimum interest coverage for the leasing and manufacturing operations and maximum leverage. In December 2021, we amended our revolving credit facility to increase the maximum leverage ratio through June 30, 2022 to provide additional near-term flexibility. A summary of our financial covenants is detailed below:

Ratio

Covenant

Actual at

March 31, 2022

Maximum leverage (1)

No greater than 4.00 to 1.00

2.80

Minimum interest coverage (2)

No less than 2.25 to 1.00

7.45

(1) Defined as the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the period of four consecutive quarters ending with March 31, 2022.

(2) Defined as the ratio of the difference of (A) consolidated EBITDA less (B) consolidated capital expenditures – manufacturing and other to consolidated interest expense to the extent paid in cash, in each case for the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the period of four consecutive quarters ending with March 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants. Please refer to Note 8 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our current debt obligations.

Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

Our 4.55% senior notes due 2024 ("Senior Notes") are fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of Trinity’s 100%-owned subsidiaries: Trinity Industries Leasing Company; Trinity North American Freight Car, Inc.; Trinity Rail Group, LLC; Trinity Tank Car, Inc.; and TrinityRail Maintenance Services, Inc. (collectively, the "Guarantor Subsidiaries”).

The Senior Notes indenture agreement includes customary provisions for the release of the guarantees by the Guarantor Subsidiaries upon the occurrence of certain allowed events including the release of one or more of the Combined Guarantor Subsidiaries as guarantor under our revolving credit facility. See Note 8 of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Senior Notes are not guaranteed by any of our remaining 100%-owned subsidiaries or partially-owned subsidiaries (“Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”).

Capital Expenditures

For the full year 2022, we anticipate a net investment in our lease fleet of between $450 million and $550 million. Capital expenditures related to manufacturing and other activities, including expansion of our fleet maintenance capabilities and systems upgrades, are projected to range between $35 million and $45 million for the full year 2022.

Equity Investment

See Note 5 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for information about our investment in partially-owned leasing subsidiaries.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2022, we had letters of credit issued under our revolving credit facility in an aggregate amount of $28.3 million, the full amount of which is expected to expire in July 2022. Our letters of credit obligations support our various insurance programs and generally renew by their terms each year. See Note 8 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about our corporate revolving credit facility.

Derivative Instruments

We may use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates, both in anticipation of future debt issuances and to offset interest rate variability of certain floating rate debt issuances outstanding. Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are accounted for in accordance with applicable accounting standards. See Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of how we utilize our derivative instruments.

LIBOR Transition

The United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), has announced that it will no longer persuade or require banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after June 2023. In the U.S., the Alternative Reference Rates Committee has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative to LIBOR. We currently have LIBOR-based contracts that extend beyond June 2023 including derivative instruments, promissory notes for Trinity Rail Leasing 2017 LLC, TILC's warehouse loan facility, the TRIP Railcar Co. LLC term loan, and our revolving credit facility. After LIBOR is phased out, the interest rates for these obligations might be subject to change. The replacement of LIBOR with an alternative benchmark reference rate may adversely affect interest rates and result in higher borrowing costs under these agreements and any future agreements.

Table of Contents

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have included financial measures compiled in accordance with GAAP and certain non-GAAP measures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to provide management and investors with additional information regarding our financial results. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reporting results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. For each non-GAAP financial measure, we provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure.

Free Cash Flow

Total Free Cash Flow After Investments and Dividends ("Free Cash Flow") is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to both management and investors as it provides a relevant measure of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing our ability to fund our operations and repay our debt. Free Cash Flow is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, in the following table.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations as computed in accordance with GAAP, plus cash proceeds from lease portfolio sales, less capital expenditures for manufacturing, dividends paid, and Equity CapEx for leased railcars. Equity CapEx for leased railcars is defined as leasing capital expenditures, adjusted to exclude net proceeds from (repayments of) debt.

(2) In September 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program effective September 9, 2021 through December 31, 2022. The new share repurchase program authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $250.0 million of its common stock. In December 2021, we entered into an ASR to repurchase $125.0 million of our common stock. Approximately 3,311,258 shares repurchased as part of the ASR were delivered to us in January 2022, representing approximately 80% of the total notional value of the ASR. The final number of shares to be repurchased will be based on Trinity's volume-weighted average stock price, less a discount, during the term of the ASR, which is expected to be completed during the third quarter of 2022. There were no shares repurchased under the share repurchase program during the three months ended March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a remaining authorization to repurchase up to $98.1 million of its common stock under the share repurchase program. Approximately $73.1 million of the share repurchase program will remain after the completion of the ASR.
