Williams Scotsman International, Inc. Reports Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2007
Williams Scotsman International, Inc. (NASDAQ:WLSC), a leading
provider of modular space solutions, reported today its financial
results for the second quarter of 2007.
Second Quarter Results
Total revenue for the 2007 second quarter was $203.7 million,
compared to $159.1 million a year ago. Leasing revenues increased
18.1% to $82.9 million from $70.2 million in the prior year quarter,
driven primarily by a 2.1% increase in average units on rent in North
America, and an increase in the average rental rate of $22 to $309
from $287. North American utilization showed a decline to 80% from 82%
a year ago due to idle classroom capacity and storage fleet growth.
The increase in units on rent and average rental rates is
attributable to continued strong performance throughout the Company's
U.S. regions and Canada. The remaining increase in leasing revenue was
driven by the Company's European subsidiary, Wiron, which was acquired
in the third quarter of 2006 and accounted for $5.3 million of the
increase. Sales of new units and rental equipment increased 54.8%
compared to the prior year quarter primarily as a result of increased
sales activities including a large classroom project in Louisiana and
a military project in Hawaii. Delivery and installation revenues
increased 23.6% compared to the prior year quarter as a result of the
above mentioned items.
Gross profit increased by $13.9 million, or 20.5%, to $81.8
million, while the gross profit margin percentage decreased 2.5
percentage points to 40.2% as compared to the prior year second
quarter due to a higher mix of sales related business. The Company
reported net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 of $14.6
million, or $0.33 per diluted share, an increase of 26.4% or $0.05 per
diluted share as compared to net income of $11.6 million or $0.27 per
diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Gerry Holthaus, Chairman, President and CEO, commented, "We are
very pleased with the results of our second quarter financial
performance. Our results for the period reflect continued growth in
our U.S regions as well as our focus on our international markets
including the benefit of our European acquisition and continued growth
from our Canadian operations. As a result of these activities, the
Company reported record net income for its second quarter."
"We also announced on July 19, 2007, that the Company agreed to be
acquired by the parent company of Algeco Group, the European space
rental company, in an all-cash transaction for $2.2 billion, which
includes the refinancing of outstanding debt. Under the terms of the
agreement, Williams Scotsman International, Inc. shareholders will
receive $28.25 in cash for each share of Williams Scotsman
International, Inc. common stock they own."
Six Months ended June 30, 2007 Results
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $365.7
million, a 12.8% increase from $324.1 million in the comparable period
of 2006. Gross profit was $155.8 million, a 16.9% increase as compared
to $133.3 million for the prior year period. The Company reported net
income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $25.1 million or
$0.57 per share as compared to net income of $22.0 million or $0.53
per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
