Trinity Industries (NYSE: TRN) Q2 2026 profit soars on TRIP railcar deal
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Trinity Industries, Inc. reported Q2 2026 revenue of $485.1 million, down 4.2% year over year, and first-half 2026 revenue of $977.1 million, down 10.5%. Despite lower sales, net income attributable to Trinity rose to $98.3 million in Q2 and $122.5 million for the first half, versus $14.1 million and $36.2 million a year earlier, driven largely by a $131.6 million non‑cash gain on the divestiture of partially‑owned leasing subsidiary TRIP Holdings and higher gains on lease portfolio sales. Q2 diluted EPS was $1.20, up from $0.17.
The Railcar Leasing and Services Group saw revenues decline 7.0% in Q2, mainly from divested partnerships, while operating profit increased 89.1% on the TRIP gain, stronger lease portfolio sale margins, and higher lease rates; excluding those gains, segment margins compressed. Fleet utilization remained high at 97.3%. The Rail Products Group faced weaker fundamentals, with Q2 revenues down 11.9% and operating profit down 61.8%, reflecting lower railcar deliveries and a production interruption at the Longview, Texas facility. New railcar backlog was $1.59 billion (11,340 units), down 19.1% in dollars and 19.8% in units from a year earlier, including $28.2 million of sustainable railcar conversion backlog.
Cash generation improved, with net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $172.4 million versus $141.9 million in the prior‑year period, while net fleet investment moderated to $126.0 million. Total debt declined to $5.23 billion, and Trinity reported about $1.0 billion of committed liquidity (cash, undrawn revolver, and warehouse capacity) and substantial covenant headroom. Discontinued operations tied to retained highway products obligations continued to weigh on results, with pre‑tax expenses of $7.4 million ( $5.7 million after tax) in the first half of 2026.
Positive
- Net income attributable to Trinity rose to $122.5 million for the first half of 2026, up from $36.2 million, aided by a $131.6 million gain on the TRIP Holdings divestiture and stronger lease portfolio sale gains.

Negative
- Consolidated revenues declined 10.5% to $977.1 million for the first half of 2026, with Rail Products Group revenues down 21.8% and new railcar backlog dollars down 19.1% year over year.
- Rail Products Group operating profit fell 61.8% in Q2 2026, hurt by lower railcar deliveries and a production interruption at the Longview, Texas manufacturing facility.
- Discontinued operations expenses increased to $7.4 million pre‑tax in the first half of 2026, versus $4.9 million a year earlier, reflecting higher costs tied to retained highway products obligations.

5 terms
non-recourse debt financial
"The Leasing Group’s debt at June 30, 2026 consisted primarily of non-recourse debt."
A non-recourse debt is a loan where the lender can seize only the specific asset pledged as security (for example, a building or equipment) if the borrower defaults, and cannot pursue the borrower’s other assets or income. Investors care because this limits how much downside the borrower’s other holdings absorb and changes who bears loss in trouble: lenders face higher recovery risk while equity holders can be wiped out more easily, affecting valuation and risk assessment.
variable interest entity financial
"Upon consideration under the variable interest entity ("VIE") model of ASC 810, Trinity has concluded that each of the RIV Partnerships meets the definition of a VIE."
A variable interest entity (VIE) is a company structure where one party controls another company’s operations and economic outcomes through contracts or special arrangements instead of owning a majority of its voting shares. For investors, VIEs matter because the controlling party’s financial results, debts and risks can appear in the controller’s reports even though ownership looks separate, so understanding VIEs helps assess true exposure, governance limits and transparency—like spotting a puppet controlled by strings rather than direct ownership.
supply chain finance financial
"we facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance ("SCF") program for several of our suppliers."
Supply chain finance is a set of financing arrangements that let suppliers get paid earlier while the buyer pays later, using a bank or platform to bridge the timing gap. Think of it like a short-term, approved loan that speeds cash to suppliers based on the buyer’s credit rather than the supplier’s credit. Investors care because it affects companies’ cash flow, working capital needs, supplier stability and hidden credit exposure, all of which can influence profitability and risk.
cash flow hedges financial
"Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are accounted for by recording the effective portion of the gain or loss in accumulated other comprehensive income."
A cash flow hedge is an accounting label companies use when they enter financial contracts—like currency or interest-rate agreements—to protect expected future cash payments or receipts from unpredictable moves. For investors, it signals that the company is trying to smooth out future cash variability (think of locking in a price to avoid surprises), which can reduce reported profit swings but also means the company has exposure to derivative instruments and their associated risks.
sustainable railcar conversions technical
"Includes sustainable railcar conversion revenues of $10.7 million, representing 115 railcars, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026."

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 Subsidiaries (“Trinity,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or "us"), which include the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and Trinity Global Ventures Limited ("Trinity Global Ventures"), a partially-owned subsidiary in which we have a controlling interest. Previously, TRIP Rail Holdings LLC ("TRIP Holdings") was a partially-owned subsidiary in the Leasing Group. In April 2026, the Leasing Group fully divested its ownership in TRIP Holdings through a railcar partnership transaction as further described in Note 5. In our opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position as of June 30, 2026, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 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 2026 presentation.
Due to seasonal and other factors, the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 may not be indicative of expected results of operations for the year ending December 31, 2026. 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, 2025. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 that had a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements or related notes as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
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, highly-rated money market funds, 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.

Supply Chain Finance Program
In cooperation with a participating financial institution, we facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance ("SCF") program for several of our suppliers. We negotiate payment terms with suppliers that are in line with average industry terms. We have not pledged any assets as security or provided other forms of guarantees to the financial institution. Under the SCF program, participating suppliers may choose to sell, at a discounted price, receivables due from us to the financial institution, at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institution, prior to the invoices’ scheduled due dates. The payment terms that we negotiate with all suppliers are consistent regardless of whether the supplier chooses to participate in the SCF program for a particular invoice. The SCF program is administered by a third-party financial institution, and our responsibility is limited to making payments based on the terms originally negotiated with participating suppliers, regardless of whether such suppliers sell receivables to the financial institution.
Amounts due to our participating suppliers in the SCF program totaled $49.6 million and $49.1 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and are included in accounts payable in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Payments made under the SCF program are reflected in net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Discontinued Operations
In the fourth quarter of 2021, we completed the sale of Trinity Highway Products, LLC (“THP”). Upon completion of the sale, the accounting requirements for reporting THP as a discontinued operation were met. In connection with the sale, the Company agreed to indemnify the buyer 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 include certain legal expenses that are directly attributable to the highway products business. Similar expenses related to these retained obligations that may be incurred in the future will likewise be reported in discontinued operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded expenses related to these obligations of $5.0 million ($3.9 million, net of income taxes) and $7.4 million ($5.7 million, net of income taxes), respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded expenses related to these obligations of $2.4 million ($1.9 million, net of income taxes) and $4.9 million ($3.8 million, net of income taxes), respectively. These expenses are included in loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 15 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information regarding obligations retained in connection with the THP sale.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2024-03 – In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses," which improves financial reporting and responds to investor input by requiring public companies to disclose additional information about certain expenses in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense category; a qualitative description of amounts remaining that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively; and the amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, the definition of selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public companies during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 on a prospective basis, with an option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2024-03 will have on our financial statement disclosures.
ASU 2025-06 – In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, "Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software," which modernizes the accounting for internal-use software costs by removing all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages. Under this guidance, capitalization of eligible costs begins when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable the project will be completed and the software will be used for the function intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for public companies during the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 using a prospective approach, modified transition approach for in-process projects, or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2025-06 will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3. Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Derivative Instruments
We use derivative instruments to mitigate interest rate risk, including risks associated with the impact of changes in interest rates 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. Derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges are accounted for by recording the realized and unrealized gains or losses on the derivative instrument in other, net (income) expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We continuously monitor our derivative positions and the credit ratings of our counterparties and do not anticipate losses due to non-performance. See Note 7 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.
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 on a recurring basis as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:
| Level 1 | |||||||||||

| (in millions) | |||||||||||
| Assets: | |||||||||||
| Cash equivalents | $ | $ | |||||||||
| Restricted cash | |||||||||||
| Total assets | $ | $ | |||||||||
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 swaps and interest rate caps 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 on a recurring basis as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:

Note 4. Segment Information
We report our operating results in two reportable segments: (1) the Railcar Leasing and Services Group, which owns and operates a fleet of railcars and provides third-party fleet leasing, management, and administrative services; railcar maintenance and modification services; and other railcar logistics products and services; and (2) the Rail Products Group, which manufactures and sells railcars and related parts and components.
Our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is our Chief Executive Officer. Operating profit is the primary measure our CODM uses to assess performance and allocate resources to each of our reportable segments. Gains and losses from the sale of property, plant, and equipment and other divestitures are included in the operating profit of each respective segment.
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. 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. Investments in Railcar Partnerships and Other Affiliates
2026 Railcar Partnership Exchange
Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Trinity Industries Leasing Company (“TILC”), we previously formed TRIP Rail Holdings LLC ("TRIP Holdings") for the purpose of providing railcar leasing services in North America for institutional investors. Prior to the 2026 Exchange Transaction completed in April 2026 as defined and described below, TRIP Holdings was a direct, partially-owned subsidiary of TILC in which we had a controlling interest. See Note 7 for additional information regarding the debt of TRIP Holdings’ subsidiary, Tribute Rail LLC ("Tribute Rail").
In April 2026, TILC executed a contribution agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with, among others, Napier Park Rail Evergreen Fund GP LLC (“Napier Park”), a subsidiary of Napier Park Global Capital, one of our railcar investment partners since 2013 and a leading alternative credit platform. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, TILC contributed (i) its 42.56 % membership interest in TRIP Holdings and (ii) its 0.2 % membership interest in Triumph Rail Holdings LLC (“Triumph”) to NP SPE Holdings LP (“NP SPE”) in exchange for an 11.2 % limited partnership interest in NP SPE (the “2026 Exchange Transaction”). TILC services all railcars owned by NP SPE. As a result of the 2026 Exchange Transaction, TILC no longer has any direct ownership interest in TRIP Holdings, Tribute Rail, or Triumph.
The divestiture of TILC’s 42.56 % membership interest in TRIP Holdings resulted in the deconsolidation of TRIP Holdings in our Consolidated Financial Statements. As TRIP Holdings did not represent a business, the divestiture was accounted for in accordance with ASC 610-20, Gains and losses from the derecognition of non-financial assets and resulted in the recognition of a non-cash pre-tax gain of $131.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The gain was computed based on (i) the fair value of noncash consideration received in the form of the 11.2 % limited partnership interest in NP SPE of $112.9 million, (ii) the derecognition of the net assets associated with TRIP Holdings of $50.0 million, (iii) the derecognition of the related noncontrolling interest of $64.3 million, and (iv) the settlement of a working capital liability associated with the exchange transaction completed in December 2025. The net assets of TRIP Holdings primarily consisted of equipment on lease and long-term debt. The gain is reflected in the gain on divestiture of partially-owned leasing subsidiary line of our Consolidated Statements of Operations and is included in the operating results of the Leasing Group.
Our limited partnership interest in NP SPE is recorded as an investment in an unconsolidated affiliate and accounted for using the equity method under ASC 323, Investments–Equity Method and Joint Ventures. See “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates—Railcar Investment Vehicle Partnerships” below for further information regarding this investment.
The impacts of the 2026 Exchange Transaction are reflected in our Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 includes noncontrolling interest allocations related to TRIP Holdings through April 1, 2026. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 includes noncontrolling interest allocations related to TRIP Holdings, Triumph, and RIV 2013.
Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates
Railcar Investment Vehicle Partnerships
In April 2026, we acquired an 11.2 % limited partnership interest in NP SPE, which holds diversified railcar fleets through its subsidiaries. The remaining 88.8 % membership interest in NP SPE is owned by affiliates of Napier Park. For additional information related to our acquisition of the 11.2 % membership interest in NP SPE, see “2026 Railcar Partnership Exchange” above.
Additionally, the Company and Wafra, Inc. (“Wafra”), a global alternative investment manager, are partners in a 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 currently owned 88.5 % by Wafra Funds and 11.5 % by TILC.
TILC services all railcars owned by NP SPE and Signal Rail (collectively, the “RIV Partnerships”).

Table of Contents
Upon consideration under the variable interest entity ("VIE") model of ASC 810, Trinity has concluded that each of the RIV Partnerships meets the definition of a VIE. TILC has variable interests in the RIV Partnerships arising from its equity ownership positions and its role as the service provider. We determined that Trinity is not the primary beneficiary of the RIV Partnerships and therefore does not consolidate these entities as we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the RIV Partnerships. We absorb portions of losses and/or receive portions of residual returns commensurate with our equity interests in these entities.
In applying the guidance under ASC 323, we concluded that our investments in the RIV Partnerships should be accounted for under the equity method of accounting based on our equity ownership positions and our role as a service provider. As of June 30, 2026, the carrying value of TILC’s equity investments in the RIV Partnerships was $124.3 million, which is included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying value of these investments represents our maximum exposure in the RIV Partnerships.
India Railcar Leasing Joint Venture
In June 2026, we acquired a 32.0 % interest in Touax Texmaco Railcar Leasing Private Limited (“TTRL”), a railcar leasing company in India. TTRL is a joint venture with Touax Group, a global asset management company, and Texmaco Rail & Engineering Limited, a rail solution provider in India. Upon consideration under the VIE model of ASC 810, Trinity has concluded that TTRL does not meet the definition of a VIE. Additionally, we do not have a controlling financial interest in TTRL; however, based on our 32.0 % ownership interest and ability to exercise significant influence, we account for our investment in TTRL under the equity method of accounting. As of June 30, 2026, the carrying value of our investment in TTRL was $37.6 million, which is inclusive of $1.6 million of transaction costs and is included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Investment in Consolidated Affiliate
In 2023, the Company and a third party formed Trinity Global Ventures to deliver railcars and provide warranty support services in Saudi Arabia. Trinity Global Ventures is owned 51.0 % by Trinity Rail Group, LLC ("Trinity Rail Group"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and 49.0 % by the third party. Upon consideration under the VIE model of ASC 810, Consolidation, Trinity has concluded that Trinity Global Ventures meets the definition of a VIE. Trinity Rail Group has a variable interest in Trinity Global Ventures arising from its 51.0 % equity ownership position. We determined that Trinity is the primary beneficiary and therefore consolidates this entity as we have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance. At June 30, 2026, the carrying value of our investment in Trinity Global Ventures totaled $2.8 million, which is eliminated in consolidation.

Estimated Fair Value of Debt – The estimated fair value of our 7.75 % senior notes due 2028 ("Senior Notes due 2028") 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). As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we evaluated the fair value of the other equipment financing liability using Level 3 inputs and determined that the carrying value approximates fair value. The respective carrying values of our revolving credit facility, TRL-2023 term loan, and TILC warehouse facility approximate fair value because the interest rate adjusts to the market interest rate. The estimated fair values of our debt are as follows:

Revolving Credit Facility – In June 2026, we amended and restated our $600.0 million unsecured corporate revolving credit facility to extend the maturity date to the earlier of (i) June 12, 2031 or (ii) April 15, 2028 if our Senior Notes due 2028 have not been repaid in full by that date. The amended revolving credit facility also provides the ability to increase commitments by up to $300.0 million, subject to certain customary conditions, and modifies the leverage ratio calculation to give effect to certain cash balances, which may lower the applicable margin and commitment fee. We incurred $1.3 million in costs related to the amendment, which will be amortized to interest expense through the maturity date.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no borrowings or repayments under the revolving credit facility. Additionally, we had outstanding letters of credit issued in an aggregate amount of $7.6 million, leaving $592.4 million available for borrowing as of June 30, 2026. Our outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2026 support performance bonds related to certain railcar orders. The revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average plus a facility margin of 1.50 %, for an all-in interest rate of 5.12 % as of June 30, 2026. A commitment fee accrues on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility at the rate of 0.175 % to 0.30 % (initially set at 0.20 % as of June 30, 2026). The applicable margin and commitment fee are based on the Company's Leverage Ratio, as defined in the amended revolving credit agreement.
The amended revolving credit facility requires the maintenance of ratios related to minimum interest coverage for the leasing and manufacturing operations and maximum net leverage. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants.
TILC Warehouse Loan Facility – TILC has a $800.0 million warehouse loan facility to finance railcars owned by TILC. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we had total borrowings of $75.1 million and total repayments of $40.4 million under the TILC warehouse loan facility. The entire unused facility amount of $286.8 million was available as of June 30, 2026 based on the amount of warehouse-eligible, unpledged equipment. Advances under the facility bear interest at one-month term SOFR plus a facility margin of 1.75 %, for an all-in interest rate of 5.37 % at June 30, 2026.
TRL-2025 Series 2026-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – In April 2026, Trinity Rail Leasing 2025 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("TRL-2025") and a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company owned through TILC, issued an aggregate principal amount of (i) $447.4 million of its Series 2026-1 Class A Secured Green Standard Railcar Notes (the "Series 2026-1 Class A Notes"), and (ii) $33.4 million of its Series 2026-1 Class B Secured Green Standard Railcar Notes (the "Series 2026-1 Class B Notes") (the Series 2026-1 Class A Notes and the Series 2026-1 Class B Notes are, collectively, the “Series 2026-1 Notes”). The Series 2026-1 Class A Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.35 %, and the Series 2026-1 Class B Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.56 %. The Series 2026-1 Notes are payable monthly and have a stated final maturity date of April 19, 2056. We incurred $5.4 million in debt issuance costs, which will be amortized to interest expense through the anticipated repayment date of the Series 2026-1 Notes. The Series 2026-1 Notes are obligations of TRL-2025 and are non-recourse to Trinity. The obligations are secured by a portfolio of railcars and operating leases thereon, certain cash reserves, and other assets acquired and owned by TRL-2025. Net proceeds received in connection with the issuance of the Series 2026-1 Notes were used to redeem the outstanding debt of the Trinity Rail Leasing 2019 LLC Series 2019-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes (the "Series 2019-1 Notes"), as described below, and for general corporate purposes.
Redemption of TRL-2019 Series 2019-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – In April 2026, with the net proceeds of the Series 2026-1 Notes described above, we redeemed in full the Series 2019-1 Notes, of which $377.1 million was outstanding at the redemption date. The all-in interest rate for the Series 2019-1 Notes was 3.82 % per annum. The Trinity Rail Leasing 2019 LLC Series 2019-2 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes remain outstanding.
Tribute Rail Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – In April 2026, as a result of the 2026 Exchange Transaction, Tribute and its related debt are no longer included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 5 for further information.
Each of our secured railcar equipment notes, including the Series 2026-1 Notes, generally has an anticipated repayment date and a stated final maturity date. While the stated final maturity date of these notes is in 2056, the cash flows from the encumbered assets of TRL-2025 will be applied, pursuant to the payment priorities of their respective indentures, so as to amortize their respective notes to achieve monthly targeted principal balances. If the cash flow assumptions used in determining the targeted balances are met, it is anticipated that the notes will be repaid well in advance of their stated final maturity date. There can be no assurance, however, that such cash flow assumptions will be realized. If these notes are not repaid by the anticipated repayment date, the respective interest rate on these notes would increase from the fixed rate stated above.
Note 8. Income Taxes
The effective tax rates from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were expenses of 23.7 % and 23.8 %, respectively, which differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 allows a company to purchase transferable tax credits. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we purchased $40.0 million in tax credits for approximately $38.4 million in cash. These credits were used to offset the Company’s federal income tax liability for 2024, which resulted in the recognition of a tax benefit of $1.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Note 10. Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense totaled approximately $5.5 million and $10.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense totaled approximately $5.4 million and $10.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The Company's annual grants of share-based awards generally occur in the first and second quarters under our Fifth Amended and Restated Stock Option and Incentive Plan.
The following table summarizes stock-based compensation awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026:
| Number of Shares Granted | Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value per Award | ||||||||||
| Restricted stock units | $ | ||||||||||
| Restricted stock awards | $ | ||||||||||
| Performance units | $ | ||||||||||
The fair value of restricted stock units and restricted stock awards ("RSAs") granted is based on the Company's closing stock price on the date of grant. For the performance units granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026 for which the payout is based on relative total shareholder return, the fair value was estimated at the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation with assumptions that reflect market conditions at the date of grant, including stock price, risk-free interest rate, expected term, expected volatility, and dividend yield. For the performance units granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026 for which the payout is based on return on equity, the fair value is based on the Company's closing stock price on the date of grant, adjusted to exclude the cumulative value of dividends over the three-year vesting period as these units do not earn dividend equivalents.

Note 11. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic net income attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc. per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income attributable to Trinity 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 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.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc.:

Note 12. Contingencies
East Palestine, OH Train Derailment
As previously disclosed, on February 3, 2023, a Norfolk Southern Railway freight train derailed 38 railcars in East Palestine, Ohio. TILC has been named in various actions associated with this incident, including Josh Hickman, et al. v. Norfolk Southern Railway Co., et al., Case No. 2025 CV 00434, in the Court of Common Pleas, Columbiana County, Ohio ("Hickman Matter"); and Richard Tsai, et al. v. Norfolk Southern Corporation, et al., Case No. 2025 CV 614, in the Court of Common Pleas, Columbiana County, Ohio ("Tsai Matter"). On April 21, 2026, the court consolidated the Tsai and Hickman Matters and subsequently denied TILC's pending motion to dismiss in the Tsai Matter. TILC was the owner of one tank car cited in these actions, which was leased to a third party, who is also a defendant in these matters.
The Company believes it has substantial defenses and intends to vigorously defend itself against all allegations in the third-party and direct claims asserted against TILC. The Company or its subsidiaries could be named in similar litigation involving other plaintiffs, but the ultimate number of claims and the jurisdiction(s) in which such claims, if any, may be filed may vary. We do not believe at this time that a loss is probable in these matters, nor can a range of possible losses be determined. Accordingly, no accrual or range of loss has been included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company maintains liability insurance coverage and commercial contractual indemnity rights to protect the Company’s assets from losses arising from these types of litigation claims.
Highway products litigation
Pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement related to the sale of THP, the Company agreed to indemnify the buyer for certain liabilities related to the highway products business, including those liabilities 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.
As previously disclosed, Mr. Joshua Harman filed a state qui tam action 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). 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. On February 7, 2024, the trial court granted the Company's motion for summary judgment. On March 31, 2026, the Court of Appeals of Virginia issued its memorandum opinion affirming the order of the trial court granting summary judgment in favor of the Company and affirmed the trial court’s denial of Mr. Harman’s and the Commonwealth of Virginia’s motion for reconsideration. On June 1, 2026, Mr. Harman filed his Petition for Appeal with the Virginia Supreme Court, which remains pending.
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 $10.2 million to $24.2 million. At June 30, 2026, total accruals of $10.9 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 $1.0 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.

Company Overview
Trinity Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries own businesses that are leading providers of railcar products and services in North America. We market our railcar products and services under the trade name TrinityRail®. Our platform also includes the brands of RSI Logistics, a provider of software and logistics solutions, and Holden America, a supplier of railcar parts and components. Our platform provides railcar leasing and management services; railcar manufacturing; railcar maintenance and modifications; and other railcar logistics products and services.
We report our operating results in two reportable segments: (1) the Railcar Leasing and Services Group (the "Leasing Group"), which owns and operates a fleet of railcars and provides third-party fleet leasing, management, and administrative services; railcar maintenance and modification services; and other railcar logistics products and services; and (2) the Rail Products Group, which manufactures and sells railcars and related parts and components.
In April 2026, we completed a railcar partnership transaction involving our partially-owned leasing subsidiary, TRIP Rail Holdings LLC ("TRIP Holdings"). See "Executive Summary – Capital Structure Updates" below for further information regarding this transaction.
Executive Summary
Cyclical, Seasonal and Other Trends Impacting Our Business
General Business Trends
Demand for many of our railcar products and services is correlated to changes in North American industrial production and international trade. We continue to actively monitor evolving tariff and trade developments, including tariffs imposed pursuant to Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 on steel and aluminum, and their potential impact on demand for our products. Uncertainty in these areas and in the macroeconomic environment, including the administration of trade policy in the U.S. and Mexico, has increased during 2026 and may continue to influence customer purchasing decisions, our commercial arrangements, and demand for new railcars, which has and could continue to negatively impact our results of operations. We remain focused on mitigating impacts to our business resulting from these evolving developments.
The industries in which our customers operate are cyclical in nature. Although lease rates and lease fleet utilization remain strong, 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 certain commodity prices, 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 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 customers, which could negatively impact our revenues, credit loss expense, and operating profits. We continue to believe that our rail platform is able to respond to cyclical changes in demand and perform throughout the railcar cycle.
We believe that our leasing business provides a natural hedge against inflation and changes in interest rates; however, like many leasing companies, the debt component of our capital structure exposes us to changes in the interest rate environment. A significant portion of the earnings from our leasing business is derived from multi-year full-service leases. We consider changes in interest rates, inflation, and other relevant factors in the pricing of new and renewing leases; however, only a portion of our leased railcar portfolio is repriced each year. Consequently, our earnings could be impacted by timing differences between when interest rate changes and changes in the inflationary environment occur and when we are able to factor these changes into our lease rates.
Due to their transactional nature, lease portfolio sales are the primary driver of fluctuations in results in the Leasing Group.
Input Costs
We periodically experience volatility in the costs of steel, components, and certain other inputs that represent a substantial portion 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 the volatility of certain input costs on our operating profit. Further, the cost and volume of lease fleet maintenance and compliance events remain elevated, which we expect to continue in the near term. We continually assess the impact of input costs on our operational efficiency, margins, and overall profitability.

Transportation Network Disruptions
We have, from time to time, been impacted by disruptions in the rail transportation network, including rail traffic closures or congestion in Eagle Pass, Texas, the primary border crossing used for railcar deliveries from our manufacturing facilities in Mexico. We continuously monitor rail traffic at the U.S.-Mexico border, and we take appropriate steps within our control to mitigate the potential impacts on our delivery timelines. However, any future challenges related to transportation network disruptions could negatively impact our operations or our ability to timely deliver railcars to our customers.
Financial and Operational Highlights

Capital Structure Updates
TRL-2025 Series 2026-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – In April 2026, Trinity Rail Leasing 2025 LLC ("TRL-2025"), a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company owned through Trinity Industries Leasing Company ("TILC"), issued an aggregate principal amount of $480.8 million of its Series 2026-1 Green Secured Railcar Equipment Notes (the "Series 2026-1 Notes"). The Series 2026-1 Notes bear interest at an all-in interest rate of 5.36%, are payable monthly, and have a stated final maturity date of April 2056. Net proceeds received in connection with the issuance of the Series 2026-1 Notes were used to redeem the outstanding debt of Trinity Rail Leasing 2019 LLC Series 2019-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes (the "Series 2019-1 Notes") and for general corporate purposes. The all-in interest rate for the Series 2019-1 Notes was 3.82% per annum.
2026 Railcar Partnership Exchange – In April 2026, TILC executed a contribution agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with, among others, Napier Park Rail Evergreen Fund GP LLC, a subsidiary of Napier Park Global Capital, one of our railcar investment partners since 2013 and a leading alternative credit platform. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, TILC contributed (i) a 42.56% membership interest in TRIP Holdings and (ii) a 0.2% interest in Triumph Rail Holdings LLC ("Triumph") to NP SPE Holdings LP ("NP SPE") in exchange for an 11.2% limited partnership interest in NP SPE (the "2026 Exchange Transaction"). As a result of these transactions, TILC no longer has any direct ownership interest in TRIP Holdings; its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tribute Rail LLC ("Tribute"); or Triumph. The Company recognized a non-cash pre-tax gain of $131.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. TRIP Holdings and Tribute and its related debt, which totaled $270.6 million as of December 31, 2025, are no longer included in our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2025, the Leasing Group divested substantially all of its ownership interest in Triumph, formerly a subsidiary of TRIP Holdings (together with the 2026 Exchange Transaction, the "Railcar Partnership Transactions").

Discussion of Consolidated Results
Revenues – Our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $485.1 million, representing a decrease of $21.1 million, or 4.2%, over the prior year period. Our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $977.1 million, representing a decrease of $114.5 million, or 10.5%, over the prior year period. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to lower revenues associated with the divestitures of two partially-owned leasing subsidiaries in the Railcar Partnership Transactions, partially offset by higher lease rates. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to lower external deliveries in the Rail Products Group and the impact of the Railcar Partnership Transactions.
Cost of revenues – Our cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $375.2 million, representing an increase of $2.4 million, or 0.6%, over the prior year period. Our cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $738.3 million, representing a decrease of $77.7 million, or 9.5%, over the prior year period. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to higher operating costs for the lease fleet, partially offset by lower costs associated with the divestitures of two partially-owned leasing subsidiaries in the Railcar Partnership Transactions. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to lower external deliveries in the Rail Products Group and the impact of the Railcar Partnership Transactions, partially offset by higher operating costs for the lease fleet.
Gains on dispositions of property and other divestitures – Gains on dispositions of property and other divestitures increased by $129.6 million and $144.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, when compared to the prior year periods primarily due to the $131.6 million gain on the divestiture of TRIP Holdings, as well as higher gains on lease portfolio sales.

Table of Contents
Operating profit – Operating profit for the three months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $199.8 million, representing an increase of $104.4 million, or 109.4%, from the prior year period. Operating profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $300.9 million, representing an increase of $105.7 million, or 54.1%, from the prior year period. These increases were primarily due to the $131.6 million gain on the divestiture of TRIP Holdings, higher gains on lease portfolio sales, and higher lease rates, partially offset by higher operating costs for the lease fleet. Additionally, the prior year periods included the operating profit associated with partially-owned leasing subsidiaries that were divested in the Railcar Partnership Transactions.
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 June 30, 2026 totaled $64.3 million, compared to $67.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Interest expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $129.7 million, compared to $133.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. These decreases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily driven by lower average debt, partially offset by higher interest rates.
Income taxes – The effective tax rates from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were expenses of 23.7% and 23.8%, respectively, which differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and foreign income taxes, and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by equity-based compensation and foreign tax return to provision adjustments.
The effective tax rates from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were expenses of 15.8% and 18.4%, respectively, which differ from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the benefit of tax credits purchased at a discount and the benefit of noncontrolling interest for which we do not provide income taxes, partially offset by state income taxes and other permanent differences. See Note 8 for further information regarding the purchase of transferable tax credits.

Total revenues for the Railcar Leasing and Services Group decreased by 7.0% and 3.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. Leasing and management revenues decreased by 11.8% and 8.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, when compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to reduced revenues associated with the divestitures of two partially-owned leasing subsidiaries in the Railcar Partnership Transactions, partially offset by higher lease rates.
Our maintenance services business is primarily dedicated to servicing our lease fleet. Revenues related to maintenance services performed on Company-owned railcars under full-service lease agreements are eliminated within the Railcar Leasing and Services Group. Services that are not included in the full-service lease agreement, such as repairs of railcar damage or other customer-specific requirements, as well as maintenance and repair activities on railcars owned by third parties, including our investor-owned fleet, are reflected in the maintenance services revenues line above and are not eliminated in consolidation. Revenues in our maintenance services business increased by 6.9% and 6.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, when compared to the prior year periods as a result of the mix of repairs. Additionally, the increase in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was favorably impacted by higher pricing.
Cost of revenues for the Railcar Leasing and Services Group increased by 1.4% and 3.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods primarily due to higher maintenance and compliance costs for the lease fleet, increased depreciation, as well as operational inefficiencies in our maintenance services business. In addition, cost of revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 includes disposal charges associated with the exit of certain logistics solutions locations. The increase was partially offset by operating costs incurred in the prior year periods associated with two partially-owned leasing subsidiaries that were divested in the Railcar Partnership Transactions.
Leasing Group operating profit increased by 89.1% and 49.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, when compared to the prior year periods primarily due to the gain on the divestiture of TRIP Holdings, higher gains on lease portfolio sales, and higher lease rates, partially offset by increased maintenance and compliance costs for the lease fleet, higher depreciation, and disposal charges associated with the exit of certain logistics solutions locations. Additionally, the prior year periods included the operating profit associated with partially-owned leasing subsidiaries that were divested in the Railcar Partnership Transactions.
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 recourse debt; long-term non-recourse promissory notes and term loans; or third-party equity.

Revenues for the Rail Products Group decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 by 11.9% and 21.8%, respectively, when compared to the prior year periods. Cost of revenues for the Rail Products Group decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 by 11.0% and 22.2%, respectively, when compared to the prior year periods. These decreases were primarily due to lower deliveries.
Operating profit for the Rail Products Group decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 by 61.8% and 26.7%, respectively, when compared to the prior period primarily due to lower deliveries. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, an incident at our Longview, Texas manufacturing facility resulted in a production interruption, which negatively impacted operating profit. The decrease in operating profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was partially offset by a higher mix of high-margin railcars.
Information related to our Rail Products Group backlog of new railcars is set forth below. In addition to the amounts below, as of June 30, 2026, our backlog related to sustainable railcar conversions totaled $28.2 million, representing 370 railcars.

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 elect to modify their procurement decision.

Selling, engineering, and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by 5.9% and 0.8%, respectively, when compared to the prior year periods primarily from lower employee-related costs. Total operating costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were favorably impacted by gains associated with the disposition of non-operating facilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We expect to finance future operating requirements with cash, cash equivalents, and short-term marketable securities; cash flows from operations; and short-term debt, long-term debt, and equity. Debt instruments that we have utilized include the TILC warehouse loan facility, senior notes, convertible subordinated notes, non-recourse asset-backed securities, non-recourse promissory notes and term loans, and our revolving credit facility.
As of June 30, 2026, we have total committed liquidity of $1.0 billion. Our total available liquidity includes: $155.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents; $592.4 million unused and available under our revolving credit facility; and $286.8 million unused and available under the TILC warehouse loan 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.

TRL-2025 Series 2026-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – In April 2026, TRL-2025 issued an aggregate principal amount of $480.8 million of its Series 2026-1 Notes. The Series 2026-1 Notes bear interest at an all-in interest rate of 5.36% and have a stated final maturity date of 2056.

Redemption of TRL-2019 Series 2019-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – In April 2026, with the net proceeds of the Series 2026-1 Notes described above, we redeemed in full the Series 2019-1 Notes, of which $377.1 million was outstanding at the redemption date. The all-in interest rate for the Series 2019-1 Notes was 3.82% per annum.

Certain shares of stock repurchased during June 2026, totaling $0.5 million, were cash settled in July 2026 in accordance with normal settlement practices. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased common stock totaling $39.0 million under the share repurchase program.
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 June 2026, we amended our revolving credit facility to, among other things, modify the leverage ratio calculation to give effect to certain cash balances, which may lower the applicable margin and commitment fee. A summary of our financial covenants is detailed below:
| Ratio | Covenant | Actual at June 30, 2026 | ||||||||||||
Maximum net leverage (1) | No greater than 3.75 to 1.00 | 0.73 | ||||||||||||
Minimum interest coverage (2) | No less than 2.25 to 1.00 | 13.50 | ||||||||||||
(1) Defined as the ratio of consolidated indebtedness, net of unrestricted cash in excess of $50.0 million up to a maximum of $300.0 million, 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 June 30, 2026.
(2) Defined as the ratio of the difference of (A) consolidated EBITDA less (B) consolidated capital expenditures – operating and administrative 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 June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants. Please refer to Note 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our current debt obligations.
Capital Expenditures
For the full year 2026, we anticipate a net fleet investment of between $300 million and $400 million. Capital expenditures related to operating and administrative activities, including supporting automation, technology, and modernization of our facilities and processes, are projected to range between $55 million and $65 million for the full year 2026.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2026, we had outstanding letters of credit issued under our revolving credit facility in an aggregate amount of $7.6 million, which support performance bonds related to certain railcar orders. See Note 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about our corporate revolving credit facility. Additionally, we had a letter of credit issued outside our revolving credit facility for $8.5 million to satisfy a liquidity reserve requirement associated with our TILC warehouse loan facility, which renews by its terms each year.
Derivative Instruments
We use derivative instruments to mitigate interest rate risk, including risks associated with the impact of changes in interest rates 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 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.
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 reported 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.
Cash Flow from Operations with Net Gains on Lease Portfolio Sales
Cash flow from operations with net gains on lease portfolio sales is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe this measure is useful to both management and investors as it provides a relevant measure of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing the breadth of the cash flow generation capabilities across our operating platform, as well as our ability to fund our operations and repay our debt. This measure is defined as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations as computed in accordance with GAAP, plus net gains on lease portfolio sales and is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, in the following table.
