LAFAYETTE, Ind., April 26, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wabash National Corporation (NYSE:WNC), a diversified industrial manufacturer and North America’s leading producer of semi-trailers and liquid transportation systems, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.
Net income for the first quarter of 2016 was $27.5 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to the first quarter 2015 net income of $10.5 million, or $0.15 per diluted share. First quarter 2016 non-GAAP adjusted earnings increased $14.0 million over the prior year period to $27.8 million, or $0.42 per diluted share. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings for the first quarter of 2016 includes an early extinguishment of debt charge of $0.5 million related to the Company’s repurchase of a portion of its outstanding convertible senior notes.
Net sales for the first quarter increased 2 percent to $448 million from $438 million in the prior year quarter while operating income increased 77 percent on improved pricing and operational execution to $48.2 million, compared to $27.3 million for the first quarter of 2015. Operating EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure that excludes the effects of certain recurring and non-recurring items, for the first quarter of 2016 was $59.8 million, an increase of $20.7 million, or 53 percent, compared to operating EBITDA for the prior year period. On a trailing twelve month basis, net sales exceeded $2.0 billion, generating Operating EBITDA of $250.1 million, or 12.3 percent of net sales. The continued year-over-year improvement in operating performance is attributable to the successful execution of the Company’s growth and diversification strategies, strong pricing environment within our Commercial Trailer Products segment and operational improvements across the Company’s manufacturing facilities.
The following is a summary of select operating and financial results for the past five quarters:

Notes:
(1) See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for explanation of the non-GAAP results included above.
Dick Giromini, president and chief executive officer, stated, “First quarter results represent the best in our Company’s history as we set first quarter records for sales, gross profit, income from operations and operating EBITDA. Furthermore, we established new records for gross profit margin and operating income margin of 17.8 percent and 10.8 percent, respectively. The momentum generated in 2015 has continued into the first quarter of 2016 with strong operational execution throughout the Company, along with margin enhancement through improved pricing and a continued strong demand environment within our Commercial Trailer Products segment.”
Mr. Giromini continued, “New trailer shipments for the first quarter were approximately 14,500, exceeding our previous guidance of 13,000 to 14,000 trailers driven by strong customer pick-ups and favorable weather conditions. A robust backlog of $1.1 billion; overall trailer market projections by ACT Research and FTR; customer commentary; and outstanding operational execution across the business, have put us on pace to deliver another record year in 2016, our fifth consecutive year of record performance. As such, we are increasing our full-year adjusted earnings guidance to $1.65 to $1.75 per diluted share.”

Commercial Trailer Products’ net sales increased $40 million, or 12.8 percent, on shipments of 14,300 trailers, or 700 more trailers than the prior year period. This increase in revenue was primarily due to an improved pricing environment, a 5.1 percent increase in trailer shipments and product mix. Supported by higher volumes, pricing and continued operational improvements, gross profit and gross profit margin increased $30.0 million and 740 basis points, respectively, as compared to the same period last year. Operating income increased $29.3 million, or 128.6 percent, from the first quarter last year to $52.1 million.
Diversified Products’ net sales decreased $25 million, or 23.6 percent, primarily the result of lower tank trailer shipments as compared to the previous year period. Demand for non-trailer truck mounted equipment, process systems and composite products were comparable with the previous year period. Gross profit and operating income declined $4.8 million and $4.0 million, respectively, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to lower overall net sales and pricing pressures on certain products. However, gross profit margin improved 80 basis points as compared to the prior year as a result of continued strong operational execution and product mix.
Retail’s net sales of $34 million decreased 21.1 percent compared with the prior year period primarily due to lower shipments of new trailers. Gross profit and operating income declined $1.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, compared to the prior year period due to lower net sales. Gross profit margin of 11.1 percent was comparable with the prior year period despite lower sales due to a higher mix of parts and service product lines.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the financial information included in this release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including operating EBITDA, operating EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures and results calculated in accordance with GAAP, including net income, and reconciliations to GAAP financial statements should be carefully evaluated.
Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, impairment of intangibles and other non-operating income and expense. Management believes operating EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations. The Company provides this measure because we believe it is useful for investors to understand the Company’s performance period to period with the exclusion of the recurring and non-recurring items identified above. Management believes the presentation of operating EBITDA, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of operating income, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation of operating EBITDA to net income is included in the tables following this release.
Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of 2016 and 2015 reflect adjustments for charges related to the extinguishment of debt. For certain other periods presented, we have excluded from these measures income recognized on the sale of former retail branch locations as well as charges related to losses incurred in connection with the Company’s impairment of intangible assets. Management believes providing these measures and excluding these items facilitate comparisons to the Company’s prior year periods and, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income and diluted net income per share, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share to net income and diluted net income per share is included in the tables following this release.
