INFORMATION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS; CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE

This Quarterly Report on Form 6-K, including the section entitled Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, contains forward-looking statements within the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not statements of historical facts and may relate to, but are not limited to, expectations or estimates of future operating results or financial performance, capital expenditures, regulatory compliance, plans for growth and future operations, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “intend,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar terminology. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K include, but are not limited to, statements regarding  (i) factors that are likely to continue to affect our performance and (ii) our belief that, assuming that our lenders remain solvent that our cash flow from operations, proceeds from the sale of containers and borrowing availability under our debt facilities are sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, including for the payment of dividends, for the next twelve months.

Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy, and actual results may differ materially from those we anticipated due to a number of uncertainties, many of which cannot be foreseen. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including, among others, the risks we face that are described in the section entitled Item 3, “Key Information -- Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 27, 2017 (our “2017 Form 20-F”).

We believe that it is important to communicate our expectations about the future to potential investors, shareholders and other readers. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control and that may cause actual events or results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in or implied by our forward-looking statements. The risk factors listed in Item 3, “Key Information -- Risk Factors” included in our 2016 Form 20-F, as well as any cautionary language in this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Before you decide to buy, hold or sell our common shares, you should be aware that the occurrence of the events described in Item 3, “Key Information -- Risk Factors” included in our 2016 Form 20-F and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K could negatively impact our business, cash flows, results of operations, financial condition and share price. Potential investors, shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements regarding our present plans or expectations for fleet size, management contracts, container purchases, sources and availability of financing, and growth involve risks and uncertainties relative to return expectations and related allocation of resources, and changing economic or competitive conditions, as well as the negotiation of agreements with container investors, which could cause actual results to differ from present plans or expectations, and such differences could be material. Similarly, forward-looking statements regarding our present expectations for operating results and cash flow involve risks and uncertainties related to factors such as utilization rates, per diem rates, container prices, demand for containers by container shipping lines, supply and other factors discussed under Item 3, “Key Information -- Risk Factors” included in our 2016 Form 20-F or elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K, which could also cause actual results to differ from present plans. Such differences could be material.

All future written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and we cannot predict those events or how they may affect us. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K speak only as of, and are based on information available to us on, the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K. We assume no obligation to, and do not plan to, update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K as a result of new information, future events or developments, except as expressly required by U.S. federal securities laws. You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K and the documents that we reference and have furnished as exhibits with the understanding that we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements and that actual results may differ materially from what we expect.  

In this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K, unless otherwise specified, all monetary amounts are in U.S. dollars. To the extent that any monetary amounts are not denominated in U.S. dollars, they have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with our accounting policies as described in Item 18, “Financial Statements” included in our 2016 Form 20-F.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Textainer Group Holdings Limited (“TGH”) is incorporated in Bermuda. TGH is the holding company of a group of corporations, consisting of TGH and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), involved in the purchase, management, leasing and resale of a fleet of marine cargo containers. The Company manages and provides administrative support to the affiliated and unaffiliated owners (the “Owners”) of the containers and structures and manages container leasing investment programs.

The Company conducts its business activities in three main areas: Container Ownership, Container Management and Container Resale (see Note 9 “Segment Information”).

 

Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2017.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2017, and the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and condensed consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. These condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows that may be reported for the remainder of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include TGH and all of its subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include TGH and all of its subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. The Company determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by evaluating whether the entity is a voting interest entity (“VME”) or a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and whether the accounting guidance requires consolidation. All significant intercompany accounts and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810) (“ASU 2016-02”). The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-02 on January 1, 2016 and there was no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

When evaluating an entity for possible consolidation, the Company must determine whether or not it has a variable interest in the entity.  Variable interests are investments or other interests that absorb portions of an entity’s expected losses or receive portions of the entity’s expected returns. The Company’s variable interests may include its decision maker or service provider fees, its direct and indirect investments and investments made by related parties, including related parties under common control.  If it is determined that the Company does not have a variable interest in the entity, no further analysis is required and the Company does not consolidate the entity.

If the Company has a variable interest in the entity, it must determine whether that entity is a VIE or a VME.

The Company considers the following facts and circumstances of individual entities when assessing whether or not an entity is a VIE. An entity is determined to be a VIE if the equity investors:

The Company is required to consolidate a VIE if it is determined to have a controlling financial interest in the entity and therefore is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company is determined to have a controlling financial interest in a VIE if it has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the aggregate indirect and direct variable interests held by the Company have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to that VIE.

For entities that do not meet the definition of a VIE, the entity is considered a VME. For these entities, if the Company can exert control over the financial and operating policies of an investee, which can occur if it has a 50% or more voting interest in the entity, the Company consolidates the entity.  

The Company has determined that it has a variable interest in TAP Funding Ltd. (“TAP Funding”) (a Bermuda company), a joint venture between the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Textainer Limited (“TL”) (a Bermuda company) and TAP Ltd. (“TAP”) in which TL owns 50.1% and TAP owns 49.9% of the common shares of TAP Funding, and that TAP Funding is a VME.  The Company consolidates TAP Funding as the Company has a controlling financial interest in TAP Funding.

 

The Company has determined that it has a variable interest in TW Container Leasing, Ltd. (“TW”) (a Bermuda company), a joint venture between the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, TL, and Wells Fargo Container Corp (“WFC”) in which TL owns 25% and WFC owns 75% of the common shares of TW, and that TW is a VIE.  The purpose of TW is to lease containers to lessees under direct financing leases.  The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of TW by its equity ownership in the entity and by virtue of its role as manager, namely that the Company has the power to direct the activities of TW that most significantly impact TW’s economic performance. Accordingly, the Company consolidates TW. The book values of TW’s direct financing and sales-type leases and related debt as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are disclosed in Note 6 “Direct Financing and Sales-type Leases” and Note 8 “Debt and Derivative Instruments”, respectively.

 

 

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of interest-bearing deposits or money market securities with original maturities of three months or less. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (see Note 10 “Commitments and Contingencies—Restricted Cash”) with various financial institutions. These financial institutions are located in Bermuda, Canada, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. A significant portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash is maintained with a small number of banks and, accordingly, the Company is exposed to the credit risk of these counterparties in respect of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Furthermore, the deposits maintained at some of these financial institutions exceed the amount of insurance provided on the deposits. Restricted cash is excluded from cash and cash equivalents and is included in long-term assets.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”). The Company early adopted ASU 2016-18 on April 1, 2017, which resulted in a $670 decrease in net cash used in financing activities and the inclusion of restricted cash balances of $33,917 and $34,587 to the beginning of the year and end of period cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, respectively, in the Company’s

condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 (see Note 2(i) “Recently Issued Accounting Standards”).

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

 

 

 

Capitalized container costs include the container cost payable to the manufacturer and the associated transportation costs incurred in moving the containers from the manufacturer to the containers’ first destined port. Containers purchased new are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives to an estimated dollar residual value. Containers purchased used are depreciated based upon their remaining useful lives at the date of acquisition to an estimated dollar residual value.

The Company evaluates the estimated residual values and remaining estimated useful lives on an ongoing basis. The Company takes a long-term view when assessing its residual values and typically does not change its residual values until disposal prices have been significantly above or below residual values between one to two years. The Company has experienced a significant decrease in container resale prices as a result of the decreased cost of new containers. Based on this extended period of lower realized container resale prices, the Company decreased the estimated future residual value of its 20’ dry containers, 40’ dry containers, 40’ high cube dry containers and 40’ folding flat rack containers effective July 1, 2016. Over the past few years, the Company has also experienced a significant increase in the useful lives of its 40’ dry containers, 20’ folding flat rack containers, 20’ open top containers and 40’ flat rack containers as the Company entered into leases with longer terms on these equipment types. Based on this extended period of longer useful lives and the Company’s expectation that new equipment lives on these equipment types would remain near those levels, the Company increased the estimated useful lives of these equipment types effective July 1, 2016. The effect of these changes was an increase in depreciation expense of $10,515 and $21,030 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Depreciation expense may fluctuate in future periods based on fluctuations in these estimates.

The Company assesses the estimates used in its depreciation policy on a quarterly basis. The Company reassessed the estimates used in its depreciation policy as of June 30, 2017 and determined that there were no changes needed.

The Company estimates the useful lives and residual values of its containers to be as follows:

 

 

 

The cost, accumulated depreciation and net book value of the Company’s leasing equipment by equipment type as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows:

The Company reviews its containers for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company compares the carrying value of the containers to the expected future undiscounted cash flows for the purpose of assessing the recoverability of the recorded amounts. If the carrying value exceeds expected future undiscounted cash flows, the assets are reduced to fair value. There was no such impairment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. In addition, containers identified as being available for sale are valued at the lower of carrying value or fair value, less costs to sell.

The Company evaluated the recoverability of the recorded amount of container rental equipment at June 30, 2017 and 2016. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, container impairment included $3,693 and $4,545, respectively, for containers that were unlikely to be recovered from lessees in default. There was no container impairment for containers that were unlikely to be recovered from lessees in default during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.  

  

The Company recorded impairments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 of $1,933 and $9,602, respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 of $19,484 and $36,776, respectively, which are included in container impairment in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, to write-down the value of containers held for sale to their estimated fair value less cost to sell. Subsequent additions or reductions to the fair values of these written down assets are recorded as adjustments to the carrying value of the equipment held for sale. Any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell are recognized in gains on sale of containers, net but not in excess of the cumulative loss previously recognized. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the reversals of previously recorded impairments on containers held for sale due to rising used container prices amounted to $4,912 and $9,622, respectively. There was no reversal of previously recorded impairments on containers held for sale during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

(e)      Debt Issuance Costs

The Company capitalizes costs directly associated with the issuance or modification of its debt and the balance of the debt issuance costs, net of amortization, are netted against the debt recorded in the consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs are amortized using the interest rate method and the straight-line method over the general terms of the related fixed principal payment debt and the related revolving debt facilities, respectively, and the amortization is recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss as interest expense. Debt issuance costs of $21,005 and $1,550 were capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, amortization of debt issuance costs of $3,815 and $8,454, respectively, were recorded in interest expense. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, amortization of debt issuance costs of $1,819 and $3,642, respectively, were recorded in interest expense. When the Company’s debt is modified or terminated, any unamortized debt issuance costs related to a decrease in borrowing capacity under any of the Company’s lenders is immediately written-off and recorded in write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and bond discounts. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, $6,516 of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the redemption of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Textainer Marine Containers III Limited’s (“TMCL III”) (a Bermuda Company) 2013-1 Bonds and 2014-1 Bonds, and the termination of TMCL III’s 2017-A Notes (see Note 8 “Debt and Derivative Instruments”) were written off. No unamortized debt issuance costs were written-off during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. 

The Company’s customers are mainly international shipping lines, which transport goods on international trade routes. Once the containers are on-hire with a lessee, the Company does not track their location. The domicile of the lessee is not indicative of where the lessee is transporting the containers. The Company’s business risk in its foreign concentrations lies with the creditworthiness of the lessees rather than the geographic location of the containers or the domicile of the lessees. Except for the lessees noted in the table below, no other single lessee made up greater than 10% of the Company’s lease rental income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:

Customer A accounted for 11.1% and 9.0% of the Company’s gross accounts receivable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Customer B accounted for 10.1% and 9.1% of the Company’s gross accounts receivable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Another customer (Customer C) accounted for 21.2% and 19.9% of the Company’s gross accounts receivable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Customer C filed for bankruptcy in August 2016 and the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable with this customer as of September 30, 2016 was fully reserved, see Note 4 “Insurance Receivable and Impairment”. There is no other single lessee accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s gross accounts receivable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, the Company’s gross accounts receivable has been restated for immaterial corrections of identified errors pertaining to properly account for lease concessions (see Note 3 “Immaterial Correction of Errors in Prior Periods”).

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Textainer Group Holdings Limited common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if all outstanding share options were exercised for, and all outstanding restricted share units were converted into, common shares. Potentially dilutive share options and restricted share units were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because they were anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic EPS with that of diluted EPS is presented as follows:

 

 

(1)  Certain amounts for the periods ended June 30, 2016 have been restated for immaterial corrections of identified errors pertaining to the classification of certain leases and the calculation of gains on sale of containers, net.

Given that the Company had a net loss attributable to Textainer Group Holdings Limited common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, there was no dilutive effect of share options and restricted share units.

The Company measures the fair value of its $1,371,809 notional amount of interest rate swaps, collars and caps using observable (Level 2) market inputs. The valuation also reflects the credit standing of the Company and the counterparties to the interest rate swaps, collars and caps. The valuation technique utilized by the Company to calculate the fair value of the interest rate swaps, collars and caps is the income approach.  This approach represents the present value of future cash flows based upon current market expectations. The Company’s interest rate swap, collar and cap agreements had a fair value asset and liability of $5,113 and $439, respectively, as of June 30, 2017 and a fair value asset and liability of $4,816 and $1,204, respectively, as of December 31, 2016. The credit valuation adjustment was determined to be $33 (a reduction to the net asset) and $87 (an addition to the net liability) as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The change in fair value for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 of ($1,232) and $1,062, respectively, and the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 of ($5,022) and ($16,199), respectively, was recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of loss as unrealized (losses) gains on interest rate swaps, collars and caps, net.

When the Company is required to write down the cost basis of its containers held for sale to fair value less cost to sell, the Company measures the fair value of its containers held for sale under a Level 2 input. The Company relies on its recent sales prices for identical or similar assets in markets, by geography, that are active. The Company recorded impairments to write down the value of containers identified for sale to their estimated fair value less cost to sell. Subsequent additions or reductions to the fair values of these written down assets are recorded as adjustments to the carrying value of the equipment held for sale. Any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell are recognized in gains on sale of containers, net but not in excess of the cumulative loss previously recognized.

The Company calculates the fair value of its financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different from the book value of those financial instruments. The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and payable, net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases, due from affiliates, net, container contracts payable, due to owners, net, debt and interest rate swaps, collars and caps. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments approximated the related book value of such instruments except that, the fair value of net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases (including the short-term balance) was approximately $207,512 and $235,769 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, compared to book values of $208,641 and $237,234 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and the fair value of long-term debt (including current maturities) based on the borrowing rates available to the Company was approximately $2,928,600 and $2,991,396 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, compared to book values of $2,930,184 and $3,038,297 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

 In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of accounting for share-based payment award transactions which includes accounting for income taxes, classification of excess tax benefits on statement of cash flows, minimum statutory tax withholding requirements and classification of employee taxes paid on the statement of cash flows when an employer withholds shares for tax-withholding purposes. The new guidance also allows an entity to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017 using the prospective transition method for the amendments related to the presentation of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows and will continue to account for forfeitures of share-based payment by estimating the number of awards expected to be forfeited and adjusting the estimate when it is likely to change. The Company’s adoption on ASU 2016-09 resulted in no changes to the Company’s 2016 consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). This amendment provides guidance on how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows for certain scenarios and transactions, as defined in ASU 2016-15. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2016-15 is permitted. ASU 2016-15 requires the use of the retrospective transition method for all periods presented. The Company early adopted ASU 2016-15 on April 1, 2017, which resulted in a reclassification of $5,500 of insurance proceeds from cash flows from operating activities to cash flows from investing activities in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the period ended June 30, 2016.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). This new standard will replace all current U.S. GAAP guidance on this topic and eliminate industry-specific guidance. Leasing revenue recognition is specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09, and therefore, the new standard will only apply to sales of equipment portfolios, dispositions of used equipment and management service agreements. The new guidance defines a five-step process to achieve the core principle of ASU 2014-09, which is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The topic was amended in August 2015 to defer the effective date to interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. ASU 2014-09 may be applied either using the full retrospective method or the modified retrospective method. The Company plans to apply the modified retrospective method of adoption effective January 1, 2018 and is currently evaluating the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 to have a material impact on the timing of revenue recognition or on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company expects to complete its assessment of the impact of ASU 2014-09 by the end of 2017.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 will replace all current U.S. GAAP guidance on this topic. Under ASU 2016-02, lessors will account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing U.S. GAAP for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases and lessors should be precluded from recognizing selling profit and revenue at lease commencement for a lease that does not transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessees. A dual approach is to be applied for lessee accounting with lease classification determined in accordance with the principles in existing lease requirements. A lessee will account for most existing capital leases as finance leases, recognizing amortization of the right-of-use asset separately from interest on the lease liability, and most existing operating leases as operating leases, recognizing a single total lease expense. Both finance leases and operating leases result in the lessee recognizing a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on balance sheet, with an exception for short-term leases and leases that commence at or near the end of the underlying asset’s economic life. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years and with early application permitted. ASU 2016-02 requires the use of the modified retrospective method for all periods presented. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019 and is currently evaluating the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company expects to complete its assessment of the impact of ASU 2016-02 in fiscal year 2018.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”). This guidance affects trade receivables and net investments in leases and the amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information from past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable information that affect collectability. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years and with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company expects to complete its assessment of the impact of ASU 2016-13 in fiscal year 2018.

 

 

During 2016, the Company identified errors related to the classification of eight operating leases that were incorrectly accounted for as sales-type leases and two direct financing leases that were incorrectly accounted for as operating leases.  In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (“ASC 250”), we evaluated the materiality of the errors from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective, and concluded that the errors were immaterial to the Company’s prior period interim and annual consolidated financial statements. Since these revisions were not material to any prior period interim or annual consolidated financial statements, no amendments to previously filed interim or annual reports are required. Consequently, the Company has adjusted for the errors by revising its historical condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 resulting in an increase in lease rental income of $242 and $540, respectively, and an increase in depreciation expense of $26 and $88, respectively, resulting in a decrease in net loss of $216 and $452, net of tax, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the adjustments in the historical condensed

consolidated statements of cash flows resulted in a $540 increase in net cash flows provided by operating activities and a $540 decrease in net cash used in investing activities.

During the first quarter of 2017, the Company identified errors related to the calculation of the gains on sale of containers, net and lease concessions that had not properly been recognized. In accordance with ASC 250, the Company evaluated the materiality of the errors from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective, and concluded that the errors were immaterial to the Company’s prior period interim and annual consolidated financial statements. Since these revisions were not material to any prior period interim or annual consolidated financial statements, no amendments to previously filed interim or annual reports are required. Consequently, the Company has adjusted for the errors by revising its historical consolidated balance sheet presented herein resulting in a $839 increase in accounted receivable, net, a $2,792 decrease in containers, net, a $1,821 decrease in retained earnings and a $132 decrease in noncontrolling interests recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the correction of the errors also resulted in a decrease in gains on sale of containers, net of $650 and $1,242, respectively, resulting in a decrease of $650 and $1,242, respectively, in net loss recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

 

In August 2016, one of the Company’s customers filed for bankruptcy and the book value of its owned containers, net on direct financing and operating leases with this customer was $178,344 and $88,171, respectively. The Company maintains insurance that covers a portion of the exposure related to the value of containers that are unlikely to be recovered from this customer, the cost to recover containers, up to 183 days of lost lease rental income and defaulted accounts receivable. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded a total container impairment of $22,149 representing $17,399 to write down the containers on direct finance leases with this customer to the lower of estimated fair market value or net book value and $4,750 insurance deductible.  As of December 31, 2016, an insurance receivable of $39,321, net of insurance deductible of $4,750, was recorded for estimated unrecoverable containers of $24,912 (or 10% of the containers on lease to the customer) as a reduction to containers, net and $19,159 of recovery costs recorded as a reduction to direct container expense on the Company’s owned fleet. The Company also recorded bad debt expense of $18,992, net of estimated insurance proceeds of $2,592, to fully reserve for the customer’s outstanding accounts receivable during the year ended December 31, 2016. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company reassessed its estimate of unrecoverable containers to approximately 7%, measured in containers net book value, of its owned containers due to collections of the containers in excess of the previous estimate. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $6,361 reduction to the insurance receivable and addition to the containers, net, for the period ended June 30, 2017.  An additional insurance receivable of $27,610 was also recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2017 for recovery costs recorded as reduction to direct container expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company received a total of $38,000 insurance proceeds for the Company’s owned fleet, which was recorded as a reduction to the insurance receivable. Insurance receivable on the Company’s owned fleet related to this bankrupt customer amounted to a total of $25,162 as of June 30, 2017.

In August 2015, one of the Company’s customers became insolvent and containers on operating and direct financing leases to the customer were deemed unlikely to be recovered. The Company maintains insurance that covers a portion of the exposure related to the value of containers that are unlikely to be recovered from its customers, the cost to recover containers and up to 183 days of lost lease rental income. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company received a total of $8,250 of insurance proceeds for the Company’s owned fleet, which was recorded as a reduction to the insurance receivable. In addition, the Company received final insurance proceeds of $3,595 for the Company’s owned fleet during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and accordingly, wrote-off the remaining balance of insurance receivable of $1,321, recorded a $469 increase to containers, net, a $1,052 increase to container impairment and a $200 reduction to recovery costs for the year ended December 31, 2016 and a further allocation of $720 to insurance receivable, $200 to recovery costs and a $920 reduction to container impairment was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The components of the net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases, which are reported in the Company’s Container Ownership segment in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows:

 

 

 The carrying value of TW’s net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases was $117,253 and $133,991 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The Company maintains detailed credit records about its container lessees. The Company’s credit policy sets different maximum exposure limits for its container lessees. The Company uses various credit criteria to set maximum exposure limits rather than a standardized internal credit rating. Credit criteria used by the Company to set maximum exposure limits may include, but are not limited to, container lessee trade route, country, social and political climate, assessments of net worth, asset ownership, bank and trade credit references, credit bureau reports, including those from Dynamar B.V. and Lloyd’s Marine Intelligence Unit (common credit reporting agencies used in the maritime sector), operational history and financial strength. The Company monitors its container lessees’ performance and its lease exposures on an ongoing basis, and its credit management processes are aided by the long payment experience the Company has had with most of its container lessees and the Company’s broad network of long-standing relationships in the shipping industry that provide the Company current information about its container lessees.

If the aging of current billings for the Company’s direct financing and sales-type leases included in accounts receivable, net were applied to the related balances of the unbilled future minimum lease payments receivable component of the Company’s net investment in direct financing leases and sales-type leases as of June 30, 2017, the aging would be as follows:

 

 

The Company maintains allowances, if necessary, for doubtful accounts and estimated losses resulting from the inability of its lessees to make required payments under direct financing and sales-type leases based on, but not limited to, each lessee’s payment history, management’s current assessment of each lessee’s financial condition and the adequacy of the fair value of containers that collateralize the leases compared to the book value of the related net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases. The changes in the carrying amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts related to billed amounts under direct financing and sales-type leases and included in accounts receivable, net, during the six months ended June 30, 2017 are as follows:

 

 

The following is a schedule by year of future minimum lease payments receivable under these direct financing and sales-type leases as of June 30, 2017:

 

 

Lease rental income includes income earned from direct financing and sales-type leases in the amount of $3,339 and $5,845 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $7,042 and $11,381 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

 

The Company’s effective tax rates were -100.9% and -42.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and -86.8% and -16.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The Company’s tax rate is affected by recurring items, such as tax rates in foreign jurisdictions and the relative amounts of income we earn in those jurisdictions.  It is also affected by discrete items that may occur in any given period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company was reflecting an income tax expense, when it was reporting losses. This was due to the Company forecasting tax expense for the year due to higher forecasted percentage of the Company’s business occurring in high tax foreign jurisdictions relative to other regions, as well as an overall loss for the year.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company was reflecting an income tax expense as the Company at June 30, 2016 forecasted income for the year. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company’s effective tax rates have been restated for immaterial corrections of identified errors pertaining to the classification of certain leases and to the calculation of the gains on sale of containers, net (see Note 3 “Immaterial Correction of Errors in Prior Periods”).

Overview

We are one of the world’s largest lessors of intermodal containers based on fleet size, with a total fleet of approximately 2.0 million containers, representing 3.0 million TEU. Containers are an integral component of intermodal trade, providing a secure and cost-effective method of transportation because they can be used to transport freight by ship, rail or truck, making it possible to move cargo from point of origin to final destination without repeated unpacking and repacking. We lease containers to approximately 300 shipping lines and other lessees, including each of the world’s top 20 container lines, as measured by the total TEU capacity of their container vessels. We believe that our scale, global presence, customer service, market knowledge and long history with our customers have made us one of the most reliable suppliers of leased containers. We have a long track record in the industry, operating since 1979, and have developed long-standing relationships with key industry participants. Our top 25 customers, as measured by revenues, have leased containers from us for an average of 27 years.

We have purchased an average of more than 235,000 TEU of new containers per year for the past five years, and have been one of the world’s largest buyers of new containers over the same period. We are one of the world’s largest sellers of used containers, having sold an average of more than 120,000 containers per year for the last five years to more than 1,400 customers. We provide our services worldwide via an international network of 14 regional and area offices and more than 500 independent depots.

We operate our business in three core segments:

The table below summarizes the composition of our fleet, in TEU and CEU, by type of containers, as of June 30, 2017:

 

 

Our fleet as of June 30, 2017, by lease type, as a percentage of total TEU on hire was as follows:

 

 

The following table summarizes our average total fleet utilization (CEU basis) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:

 

 

We measure the utilization rate on the basis of CEU on lease, using the actual number of days on hire, expressed as a percentage of CEU available for lease, using the actual days available for lease. CEU available for lease excludes CEU that have been manufactured for us but have not yet been delivered to a lessee and CEU designated as held-for-sale units.

Our total revenues primarily consist of leasing revenues derived from the leasing of our owned containers and, to a lesser extent, fees received for managing containers owned by third parties and equipment resale. The most important driver of our profitability is the extent to which revenues on our owned fleet and management fee income exceed our operating costs. The key drivers of our revenues are fleet size, rental rates and utilization. Our operating costs primarily consist of depreciation expense, container impairment, direct operating expenses, administrative expenses and amortization expense. Our lessees are generally responsible for loss of or damage to a container beyond ordinary wear and tear, and they are required to purchase insurance to cover any other liabilities.

Gain on sale of containers, net for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $8,684 (697.0%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to a $9,083 increase resulting from an increase in average sales proceeds of $139 per unit, a $310 increase in net gain on sales-type leases and a $18 increase due to a 3.3% increase in the number of containers sold, partially offset by a $727 adjustment resulting from recording the fair value of replacement containers that were received in lieu of containers that were destroyed at a manufacturer’s depot for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

The following table summarizes our total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and the percentage changes between those periods:

 

 

Direct container expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased $340 (2.3%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to a $1,841 increase in repositioning expense mainly resulting from repositioning Hanjin containers, a $601 increase in maintenance expense and a $562 increase in insurance expense, partially offset by a $2,325 decrease in storage expense. Direct container expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $5,370 (18.4%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to a $6,482 increase in repositioning expense mainly resulting from repositioning Hanjin containers, a $1,116 increase in insurance expense and a $1,070 increase in maintenance expense, partially offset by a $3,264 decrease in storage expense.

Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased $7,861 (15.2%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 due to a decrease in the estimated future residual value of 20’ dry containers, 40’ dry containers, 40’ high cube dry containers and 40’ folding flat rack containers used in the calculation of depreciation expense, partially offset by an increase in the estimated useful lives of 40’dry containers, 20’ folding flat rack containers, 20’ open top containers and 40’ folding flat rack containers used in the calculation of depreciation expense and a decrease in the size of our owned fleet excluding fully depreciated containers. Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $15,858 (15.2%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to a decrease in the estimated future residual value of 20’ dry containers, 40’ dry containers, 40’ high cube dry containers and 40’ folding flat rack containers used in the calculation of depreciation expense, partially offset by an increase in the estimated useful lives of 40’dry containers, 20’ folding flat rack containers, 20’ open top containers and 40’ folding flat rack containers used in the calculation of depreciation expense and a decrease in the size of our owned fleet excluding fully depreciated containers.

Container impairment for the three months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $18,770 (-96.3%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 due to a $17,551 decrease in impairments to write down the value of containers held for sale to their estimated fair value less cost to sell and a $4,912 reversal of previously recorded impairments on containers held for sale due to rising used container prices during the three months ended June 30, 2017, partially offset by a $3,693 increase in impairments for containers that were unlikely to be recovered from lessees in default during 2017.  Container impairment for the six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $32,251 (-87.7%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to a $27,174 decrease in impairments to write down the value of containers held for sale to their estimated fair value less cost to sell and a $9,622 reversal of previously recorded impairments on containers held for sale due to rising used container prices during the six months ended June 30, 2017, partially offset by a $4,545 increase in impairments for containers that were unlikely to be recovered from lessees in default.

Amortization expense represents the amortization of amounts paid to acquire the rights to manage the container fleets of Capital Lease Limited, Hong Kong (“Capital”); Amphibious Container Leasing Limited (“Amficon”); and Capital Intermodal Limited, Capital Intermodal GmbH, Capital Intermodal Inc., Capital Intermodal Assets Limited and Xines Limited (“Capital Intermodal”).

General and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased $710 (10.8%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to a $288 increase in professional fees a $287 increase in rent expense and a $107 increase in information technology costs. General and administrative expense increased $889 (6.5%) for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to a $448 increase in rent expense, a $314 increase in professional fees, a $61 increase in compensation costs and a $47 increase in information technology costs.

Short-term incentive compensation expense (benefit) changed from a benefit of $93 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to an expense of $2 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to an increase in the expected amount of incentive compensation awards for fiscal year 2017 compared to fiscal year 2016. Short-term incentive compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $682 (100.3%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to an increase in the expected incentive compensation awards for fiscal year 2017 compared to fiscal year 2016.

The following table summarizes other (expense) income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and the percentage changes between those periods:

 

 

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased $9,382 (46.9%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016. due to a $9,814 increase resulting from an increase in average interest rates of 1.3 percentage points primarily due to higher amortization of deferred debt issuance costs and an increase in interest margin of several of our recently amended debt facilities during the three months ended June 30, 2017, partially offset by a $432 decrease resulting from a decrease in average debt balances of $65,450. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $18,330 (45.8%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to a $18,690 increase resulting from an increase in average interest rates of 1.3 percentage points, partially offset by a $360 decrease resulting from a decrease in average debt balances of $27,277.

The write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and bond discounts for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 amounted to $6,516 and $712, respectively, for both periods, which related to the early redemption of Textainer Marine Containers III Limited’s (“TMCL III”) 2013-1 Bonds, 2014-1 Bonds and 2017-A Notes. There was no write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs or bond discounts for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016.

Realized losses on interest rate swaps, collars and caps, net for the three months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $1,899 (-79.9%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 due to a $1,816 decrease in the average net settlement differential between variable interest rates received compared to fixed interest rates paid on interest rate swaps of 0.43 percentage points and a $83 decrease resulting from a decrease in average interest rate swap notional amounts of $61,430. Realized losses on interest rate swaps, collars and caps, net for the six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $3,090 (-65.3%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to a $3,190 decrease in the average net settlement differential between variable interest rates received compared to fixed interest rates paid on interest rate swaps of 0.36 percentage points, partially offset by a $100 increase in average interest rate swap notional amounts of $36,835.

Unrealized losses on interest rate swaps, collars and caps, net for the three months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $3,790 (-75.5%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $3,970 (498.1%) and $4,397 (538.2%) compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company was reflecting an income tax expense, when it was reporting losses. This was due to the Company forecasting tax expense for the year due to higher forecasted percentage of the Company’s business occurring in high tax foreign jurisdictions relative to other regions, as well as an overall loss for the year.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company was reflecting an income tax expense as the Company at June 30, 2016 forecasted income for the year.

Net (loss) income attributable to the noncontrolling interests represents the noncontrolling interests’ portion of TW Container Leasing Ltd. (“TW”) and TAP Funding Limited’s (“TAP Funding”) net (loss) income for the periods.  TW is a joint venture between Textainer Limited (“TL”), TGH’s wholly-owned subsidiary, and Wells Fargo Container Corp. (“WFC”) in which TL owns 25% and WFC owns 75% of the common shares of TW. TW’s profits and losses are allocated to TL and WFC on the same basis as their ownership percentages. TAP Funding is a joint venture between TL and TAP Ltd. (“TAP”) in which TL owns 50.1% and TAP owns 49.9% of the common shares of TAP Funding. TAP Funding’s profits and losses are allocated to TL and TAP on the same basis as their ownership percentages.

Loss before income taxes and noncontrolling interests attributable to Other activities unrelated to our reportable business segments for the three months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $132 (-13.7%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to a $212 decrease in corporate overhead expense resulting primarily from a decrease in professional fees, partially offset by a $80 increase in long term incentive compensation expense.

Loss before income taxes and noncontrolling interests attributable to Other activities unrelated to our reportable business segments for the six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $490 (-24.6%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to a $352 decrease in corporate overhead expense resulting primarily from a decrease in professional fees and a $140 decrease in intercompany recharge expense related to a share compensation reimbursement arrangement, which is eliminated in consolidation, partially offset by a $2 increase in long term incentive compensation expense.  

Segment eliminations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased $1,308 (1,072.1%) compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 and consisted of a $1,296 decrease in acquisition fees received by our Container Management segment from our Container Ownership segment and a $12 increase in depreciation expense related to capitalized acquisition fees received by our Container Management segment from our Container Ownership segment. Our Container Ownership segment capitalizes acquisition fees billed by our Container Management segment as part of containers, net and records depreciation expense to amortize the acquisition fees over the useful lives of the containers, which is eliminated in consolidation.

Segment eliminations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $2,045 (222.0%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 and consisted of a $2,005 decrease in acquisition fees received by our Container Management segment from our Container Ownership segment and a $40 increase in depreciation expense related to capitalized acquisition fees received by our Container Management segment from our Container Ownership segment. Our Container Ownership segment capitalizes acquisition fees billed by our Container Management segment as part of containers, net and records depreciation expense to amortize the acquisition fees over the useful lives of the containers, which is eliminated in consolidation.

 

 

Currency

Almost all of our revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars and approximately 72.9% and 74.6%, respectively, of our direct container expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, were denominated in U.S. dollars. See the risk factor entitled “Because substantially all of our revenues are generated in U.S. dollars, but a significant portion of our expenses are incurred in other currencies, exchange rate fluctuations could have an adverse impact on our results of operations” under Item 3, “Key Information—Risk Factors” included in our 2016 Form 20-F. Our operations in non-U.S. dollar locations have some exposure to foreign currency fluctuations, and trade growth and the direction of trade flows can be influenced by large changes in relative currency values. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, our non-U.S. dollar operating expenses were spread among up to 20 currencies, respectively, resulting in some level of self-hedging. We do not engage in currency hedging.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $138,727. Our principal sources of liquidity have been (1) cash flows from operations including the sale of containers, (2) borrowings under conduit facilities (which allow for recurring borrowings and repayments) granted to Textainer Marine Containers II Limited (the “TMCL II Secured Debt Facility”) and TMCL IV (the “TMCL IV Secured Debt Facility”), (3) borrowings under the revolving credit facilities extended to TL (the “TL Revolving Credit Facility” and the “TL Revolving Credit Facility II”), TW (the “TW Credit Facility”) and TAP Funding (the “TAP Funding Revolving Credit Facility”), (4) proceeds from TL’s term loan (the “TL Term Loan”) and (5) proceeds from the issuance of Textainer Marine Container V Limited’s Series 2017-1 and 2017-2 Fixed Rate Asset Backed Notes (the “2017-1 Bonds” and “2017-2 Bonds”, respectively).  As of June 30, 2017, we had the following outstanding borrowings and borrowing capacities under the TMCL II Secured Debt Facility, the TMCL IV Secured Debt Facility, the TL Revolving Credit Facility, the TL Revolving Credit Facility II, the TW Credit Facility, the TAP Funding Revolving Credit Facility, the TL Term Loan, the 2017-1 Bonds and the 2017-2 Bonds (in thousands):

 

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the income taxes that would be payable to foreign taxing jurisdictions if the earnings of a group of corporations operating in those jurisdictions were to be transferred out of such jurisdictions, because such earnings are intended to be permanently reinvested in those countries. At June 30, 2017, cumulative earnings of approximately $35,108 would be subject to income taxes of approximately $10,532 if such earnings of foreign corporations were transferred out of such jurisdictions in the form of dividends.

Assuming that our lenders remain solvent, we currently believe that cash flows from operations, proceeds from the sale of containers and borrowing availability under our debt facilities are sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, including the payment of dividends, for the next twelve months. We will continue to monitor our liquidity and the credit markets. However, we cannot predict with any certainty the impact on the Company of continuing and further disruptions in the credit markets.  

The TMCL II Secured Debt Facility, the TMCL IV Secured Debt Facility, the TL Revolving Credit Facility, the TL Revolving Credit Facility II, the TW Credit Facility, the TAP Funding Revolving Credit Facility, the TL Term Loan, the 2017-1 Bonds and the 2017-2 Bonds require us to comply with certain financial and nonfinancial covenants. As of June 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all of the applicable covenants.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $26,952 (-18.7%) compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016.  The following table summarizes the variances included within this decrease:

 

 

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities changed from net cash used in investing activities of $115,101 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to net cash provided by investing activities of $87,855 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 due to a lower amount of cash paid for container and fixed asset purchases, higher insurance proceeds received for unrecoverable containers and higher proceeds from the sale of containers and fixed assets, partially offset by a lower receipts of payments on direct financing and sales-type leases, net of income earned. The Company early adopted ASU 2016-15 on April 1, 2017, which resulted in a reclassification of $13,801 and $5,500 of insurance proceeds received for unrecoverable containers from operating activities to investing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016,

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2017, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, change in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We have identified the policies and estimates in Item 5, “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” included in our 2016 Form 20-F as among those critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. These policies and estimates are considered critical due to the existence of uncertainty at the time the estimate is made, the likelihood of changes in estimates from period to period and the potential impact that these estimates can have on our financial statements. These policies remain consistent with those reported in our 2016 Form 20-F. Please refer to Item 5, “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” included in our 2016 Form 20-F.

 

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We could be exposed to market risk from future changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. At times, we may enter into various derivative instruments to manage certain of these risks. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, we did not experience any material changes in market risk that affect the quantitative and qualitative disclosures presented in Item 11, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk—Foreign Exchange Risk” or in Item 11, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk—Interest Rate Risk” included in our 2016 Form 20-F. Updated interest rate swap, collar and cap agreement information is set forth below.

Interest Rate Risk

We have entered into various interest rate swap, collar and cap agreements to mitigate our exposure associated with our variable rate debt. The swap agreements involve payments by us to counterparties at fixed rates in return for receipts based upon variable rates indexed to the London InterBank Offered Rate. The differentials between the fixed and variable rate payments under these agreements are recognized in realized losses on interest rate swaps, collars and caps, net in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

The notional amount of the interest rate swap agreements was $1,186,847 as of June 30, 2017, with termination dates between July 15, 2017 and July 15, 2023.  Through the interest rate swap agreements, we have obtained fixed rates between 0.60% and 1.98%.  Our interest rate swap agreements had a net fair value asset of $4,996 and $3,862 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The notional amount of the interest rate collar agreements was $86,962 as of June 30, 2017, with termination dates between April 15, 2019 and June 15, 2023. The net fair value liability of these agreements was $322 and $250 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The notional amount of the interest rate cap agreements was $98,000 as of June 30, 2017, with termination dates between May 15, 2018 and December 15, 2019.  

Based on the debt balances and derivative instruments as of June 30, 2017, it is estimated that a 1% increase in interest rates would result in a decrease in the net fair value liability of interest rate swaps, collars and caps of $18,012, and an increase in interest expense of $13,031 and a decrease in realized losses on interest rate swaps, collars and caps, net of $6,700 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
