| (2) | | Utilization is computed by dividing total units on lease in CEUs (cost equivalent unit) by the total units in our fleet in CEUs, excluding CEUs that have been designated as held for sale and units manufactured for us but not yet delivered to a lessee. CEU is a unit of measurement based on the approximate cost of a container relative to the cost of a standard 20-foot dry container. These factors may differ from CEU ratios used by others in the industry. |
| (3) | | TEU refers to a twenty-foot equivalent unit, which is a unit of measurement used in the container shipping industry to compare shipping containers of various lengths to a standard 20-foot container, thus a 20-foot container is one TEU and a 40-foot container is two TEU. |

Adjusted EBITDA of $154.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, as compared to $160.5 million in the third quarter of 2023; Fourth quarter average and current utilization rate of 99.2% and 99.5%, respectively; Added $169.4 million of new containers during 2023, virtually all assigned to long-term leases; On October 22, 2023, Textainer announced it had entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Stonepeak in a transaction expected to close in the first quarter of 2024, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Textainer's shareholders and other required regulatory clearances and approvals; Repurchased 3,411,296 common shares at an average price of $36.31 per share during the first nine months of 2023. Textainer suspended its share repurchase program in September 2023 in light of the pending transaction with Stonepeak; Textainer's board of directors, approved and declared a quarterly preferred cash dividend on its 7.00% Series A and its 6.25% Series B cumulative redeemable perpetual preference shares, payable on March 15, 2024, to holders of record as of March 1, 2024; and Textainer's board of directors, approved and declared a $0.30 per common share cash dividend, payable on March 15, 2024 to holders of record as of March 1, 2024.
“We delivered solid full-year and fourth quarter 2023 results, demonstrating the strength in our business fundamentals. For the full year, lease rental income decreased by 5% to $770 million due to fleet attrition stemming from a slower capex environment.

Adjusted net income was $198 million or $4.63 per diluted common share for the full year, while adjusted EBITDA was $644 million,” stated Olivier Ghesquiere, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“We are incredibly excited about our pending transaction to be acquired by Stonepeak. We believe this acquisition provides a compelling value for our shareholders, while also benefiting the Textainer business and our customers,” concluded Ghesquiere.
Transaction with Stonepeak
As previously announced on October 22, 2023, Textainer has entered into a definitive agreement under which Stonepeak will acquire all outstanding common shares of Textainer for $50.00 per share in cash. We currently expect that Textainer's Series A and B cumulative redeemable perpetual preference shares (and the corresponding depositary shares issued with respect to such preference shares) will be called for redemption at the amount set forth in the applicable certificate of designation for such preference shares no later than 120 days following the closing.
Textainer's special shareholder meeting to approve the Stonepeak transaction is scheduled on February 22, 2024. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2024, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Textainer's shareholders and other required regulatory clearances and approvals.
In light of the pending transaction, Textainer will not hold an earnings conference call to discuss its fourth quarter and full-year 2023 results.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement Textainer's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted common share, adjusted EBITDA, headline earnings and headline earnings per basic and diluted common share.
Management believes that adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share are useful in evaluating Textainer's operating performance. Adjusted net income is defined as net income attributable to common shareholders excluding unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities and the related impacts on income taxes. Additionally, adjusted net income excludes transaction and other costs associated with the proposed acquisition, costs associated with departing employees, debt termination expense, and the related impacts on income taxes as they are not normal, recurring operating expenses. Management considers adjusted EBITDA a widely used industry measure and useful in evaluating Textainer's ability to fund growth and service long-term debt and other fixed obligations. Headline earnings is reported as a requirement of Textainer's listing on the JSE. Headline earnings and headline earnings per basic and diluted common shares are calculated from net income which has been determined based on GAAP.
Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the tables below for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Non-GAAP measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and are presented solely as supplemental disclosures. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be relied upon in isolation, or as a substitute to net income, income from operations, cash flows from operating activities, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
They do not reflect cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt; Although depreciation expense and container impairment are a non-cash charge, the assets being depreciated may be replaced in the future, and neither adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income or adjusted net income per diluted common share reflects any cash requirements for such replacements; They are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows; and Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
