SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CAI International, Inc. (CAI) (NYSE:CAP), one of the world’s leading lessors of intermodal freight containers, today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2011.

Highlights for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year of 2011

CAI reported record net income attributable to CAI common stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2011 of $0.66 per fully diluted share, a 16% increase compared to $0.57 for the fourth quarter of 2010.
For the full year of 2011, CAI reported record net income attributable to CAI common stockholders of $2.55 per fully diluted share, a 63% increase compared to $1.56 reported in 2010.
Container rental revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 50% compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 and 16% compared to the third quarter of 2011.

Net income attributable to CAI common stockholders was $12.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $10.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, an increase of 23%. Net income attributable to CAI common stockholders was $50.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $28.4 million for the comparable period in 2010, an increase of 77%.

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $36.2 million, compared to $25.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, an increase of 44%. Container rental revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $32.0 million, compared to $21.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. The increase in container rental revenue was primarily due to a 30% increase in the average number of TEUs of owned containers on lease and to a 19% increase in the average owned fleet per diem rates compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. Management fee revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $3.1 million, compared to $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. Finance lease income for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased to $1.1 million, from $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. As expected, average fleet utilization decreased slightly due to normal seasonality from 98.1% in the third quarter of 2011 to 96.5% in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $125.7 million, compared to $77.9 million in 2010, an increase of 61%. Container rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $106.7 million, compared to $64.9 million in 2010, an increase of 64%. The increase in container rental revenue was primarily due to a 39% increase in the average number of TEUs of owned containers on lease and a 20% increase in the average owned fleet per diem rates compared to 2010. Management fee revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $13.0 million, compared to $10.3 million for 2010. Gain on sale of container portfolios for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $2.3 million, compared to $0.6 million for 2010. Finance lease income for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased to $3.7 million, from $2.0 million in 2010.

Victor Garcia, Chief Executive Officer of CAI, commented, “2011 was an excellent year for our company. We achieved strong revenue and earnings growth throughout the year, generating $50.2 million of net income, a 77% increase compared to 2010. As a result of continued growth in global containerized trade, we took delivery of more than $415 million of equipment during the year, a record level for CAI. Most of this investment in equipment has already been placed on long term leases at per diem rates that are significantly higher than in 2010. Our utilization for the year averaged 97.6% and we finished the year with utilization of 95.3%.”

Mr. Garcia continued, “We are optimistic in regards to the 2012 prospects for the container leasing industry in general and for CAI in particular. We expect demand for containers to increase during the second quarter of 2012, leading to an improvement in the utilization of our existing fleet and an increase in demand for the leasing of newly built containers. Our outlook is based on our expectation that 2012 will be another year of containerized trade growth; Clarkson’s Research January forecast for 2012 containerized trade is for 8% growth, a level comparable to that in 2011. The expected growth in trade, the current high utilization level of lessor fleets, the limited level of container production since mid-2011 and our belief that many shipping companies will have limited budgets for container purchases in the coming year are all factors that we believe will lead to a strong market for our continued investment in new containers which will result in continued growth for our company.”
