LANDSTAR SYSTEM REPORTS RECORD QUARTERLY REVENUE OF
$863 MILLION AND RECORD QUARTERLY DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS OF $0.86
Jacksonville, FL Landstar System, Inc. (NASDAQ: LSTR) reported record quarterly revenue of $863 million in the 2014 fourth quarter, the highest quarterly revenue of any quarter in Landstar history. Landstar also reported diluted earnings per share of $0.86 in the 2014 fourth quarter on net income from continuing operations of $38.5 million. This is the highest quarterly diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in Landstar history. With respect to the Companys results from continuing operations for the 2013 fourth quarter, Landstar reported net income of $25.2 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, on revenue of $692 million. Additionally, the 2013 fourth quarter included $0.75 of diluted earnings per share from income from discontinued operations attributable to the sale of the Landstar Supply Chain Solutions companies. Gross profit (defined as revenue less the cost of purchased transportation and commissions to agents) was $124.7 million in the 2014 fourth quarter compared to $102.7 million of gross profit in the 2013 fourth quarter. Operating margin, representing operating income divided by gross profit, was 49.1 percent in the 2014 fourth quarter.
Truck transportation revenue hauled by independent business capacity owners (BCOs) and truck brokerage carriers in the 2014 fourth quarter was $811.2 million, or 94 percent of revenue, compared to $643.6 million, or 93 percent of revenue, in the 2013 fourth quarter. Truckload transportation revenue hauled via van equipment in the 2014 fourth quarter was $499.7 million compared to $391.4 million in the 2013 fourth quarter. Truckload revenue hauled via unsided/platform equipment in the 2014 fourth
LANDSTAR SYSTEM/ 2
quarter was $289.6 million compared to $233.4 million in the 2013 fourth quarter. Revenue hauled by rail, air and ocean cargo carriers was $41.0 million, or 5 percent of revenue, in the 2014 fourth quarter compared to $39.0 million, or 6 percent of revenue, in the 2013 fourth quarter.
Trailing twelve-month return on average shareholders equity was 30 percent and trailing twelve-month return on invested capital, net income divided by the sum of average equity plus average debt, was 24 percent. Landstar purchased approximately 940,000 shares of its common stock during 2014 at an aggregate cost of $56.4 million. Currently, there are approximately 1,828,000 shares of the Companys common stock available for purchase under Landstars authorized share purchase program.
As previously announced on December 4, 2014, the Companys Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $1.00 per share payable on January 26, 2015, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on January 12, 2015. In addition, Landstar announced today that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.07 per share payable on March 13, 2015, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 16, 2015. It is currently the intention of the Board to pay dividends on a quarterly basis going forward.
Landstar also announced that effective January 29, 2015, Landstar President and CEO Jim Gattoni has joined the Board of Directors of Landstar System, Inc.
Landstars 2014 fourth quarter results were record setting, said Gattoni. Revenue and diluted earnings per share for the 2014 fourth quarter were quarterly records for continuing operations. Demand for Landstars truck transportation services in the 2014 fourth quarter continued to be extremely strong, as the number of loads hauled via truck increased 11 percent over the 2013 fourth quarter. Revenue per load hauled via truck also remained very strong and increased 14 percent over the 2013 fourth quarter. In fact, Landstars average revenue per load hauled via truck in the 2014 fourth quarter set a new record and was up four percent over the record set in the Companys 2014 third quarter. Landstar experienced very strong revenue growth over the 2013 fourth quarter with respect to both loads hauled via van equipment and loads hauled via
LANDSTAR SYSTEM/ 3
unsided/platform equipment. On a quarter-over-prior-year-quarter basis, revenue hauled via van equipment increased 28 percent and revenue hauled via unsided/platform equipment increased 24 percent. Despite a significant provision for incentive compensation, operating margin was an impressive 49.1 percent in the 2014 fourth quarter and was the second highest fourth quarter operating margin in Landstars history. And finally, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the 2014 fourth quarter increased an outstanding 56 percent over the 2013 fourth quarter. 2014 was truly an exceptional year for Landstar as the Company surpassed $3 billion in revenue for the first time in its history. In addition to revenue, annual records were set for many other financial metrics including gross profit, operating income, net income and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations.
Gattoni continued, The strength in both the number of loads hauled via truck and truck revenue per load experienced in the 2014 fourth quarter has so far continued through the first several weeks of 2015. Assuming continued strength in both load volume and revenue per load from truck transportation services throughout the remainder of the 2015 first quarter, I anticipate revenue for the 2015 first quarter to be in a range of $750 million to $800 million and, assuming that range of estimated revenue, I would anticipate 2015 first quarter diluted earnings per share to be in a range of $0.71 to $0.76 per share compared to $0.61 per diluted share in the 2014 first quarter.
PLEASE NOTE: As of the first quarter of 2015, the Company has revised the format of its financial statement supplemental information presentation to include revenue by trailer type. Included with this earnings release are supplemental information presentations in both the historical format and the new format. The Company intends to use only the new supplemental information presentation format on a going forward basis. Management believes this change in reporting supplemental information will allow investors to better understand underlying trends in the Companys results. This change in the reporting of supplemental information has no impact on reporting with respect to the Companys consolidated balance sheets, income statements, cash flows or changes in shareholders equity for any periods.
