YRC Worldwide - Transportgigant am Ende?

-- YRC Freight tons per day up 6.7%, revenue per hundredweight up 4.8%, operating revenue up 11.0%
-- Regional tons per day up 4.7%, revenue per hundredweight up 5.7%, operating revenue up 12.6%



OVERLAND PARK, KAN., Feb. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- YRC Worldwide Inc. (Nasdaq: YRCW) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter of 2011.

Consolidated operating revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $1.212 billion, up 11.1% over 2010, and consolidated operating loss was $38 million, which included a $13 million loss on asset disposals, $4 million of restructuring professional fees and $9 million of letter of credit fees (as detailed in the reconciliation below). Excluding these items, on a non-GAAP basis 2011 fourth quarter operating loss would have been $12 million.  As a comparison, the company reported consolidated operating revenue of $1.092 billion for the fourth quarter of 2010 and a consolidated operating loss of $28 million, which included a $3 million loss on asset disposals, $8 million of letter of credit fees and $6 million of restructuring professional fees (as detailed in the reconciliation below). Excluding these items, on a non-GAAP basis 2010 fourth quarter operating loss would have been $11 million.

The company also reported positive operating cash flow of $27 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, which included the $4 million of restructuring professional fees, and reported gross capital expenditures of $35 million. When excluding the above noted restructuring professional fees, the company reported on a non-GAAP basis adjusted free cash flow usage of $4 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 (as detailed in the reconciliation below). As a comparison, the company generated non-GAAP basis adjusted free cash flow of $11 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, which included the add back of $7 million of restructuring professional fees (as detailed in the reconciliation below).  

"I wish to express my thanks to our employees for their efforts as we work to build a more service-centric culture focused on delivering quality and consistently reliable freight service for our customers," said James Welch, chief executive officer of YRC Worldwide.  "I am pleased with the renewed focus on customer service, but obviously not satisfied with our consolidated operating results. However, I am encouraged that our performance trends over the fourth quarter are consistent with or exceeding the consolidated operating plan created by our now autonomous operating companies," stated Welch.

"Our plans to streamline and simplify the YRC Freight network during 2012 are designed to enable fewer touches of the freight, expedite delivery to our customers, reduce costs by network optimization, and allow YRC Freight to return to its core competency of handling LTL shipments moving in the 2-day to 5-day transit lanes which are generally between 500 and 3,500 miles," stated Welch. "Our YRC Freight growth strategy will focus on delivering consistent, high-quality, long-haul service that is reliable and cost-effective with competitive transit times."

"I also want to recognize our Regional operating companies, Holland, Reddaway and New Penn, for continuing to deliver best-in-class service in the next-day and regional North American LTL markets," said Welch.  "The employees at all three Regional companies rallied and worked hard during 2011 to deliver an adjusted operating ratio of 97.3% which represents their second consecutive profitable year coming out of the economic downturn.  Customer satisfaction remains high at Holland, Reddaway and New Penn, which validates that these three companies are doing the right things for their customers, and we expect their operating momentum to continue to improve in 2012."

At December 31, 2011, the company's cash, cash equivalents and availability under its $400 million multi-year asset-based loan facility ('ABL') was $277 million. The ABL borrowing base was $361 million as of December 31, 2011 as compared to $371 million as of September 30, 2011. As a comparison, the company's cash, cash equivalents and unrestricted availability under its lending facilities was $279 million at September 30, 2011 and $194 million at December 31, 2010.

On December 15, 2011, the company sold a significant portion of the assets of its Glen Moore truckload operating subsidiary and redeployed the remaining revenue equipment units to YRC Freight and the Regional operating companies.  "The proceeds from the sale of our Glen Moore assets improved our liquidity position and, more importantly, enable us to better focus our efforts on improving our core North American LTL businesses. We continue to evaluate additional sales of non-strategic assets," stated Jamie Pierson, executive vice president and chief financial officer of YRC Worldwide. "On the operating front, our effective management of working capital produced a days-sales-outstanding of 35.4 days, which is a one-day improvement over last year."

"We have hired Chicago-based NRC Realty & Capital Advisors LLC to coordinate the auction of 62 of our surplus properties resulting from our network integration activities," said Pierson. "These surplus properties currently have substantial holding cost, maintenance and real estate taxes. We have chosen the auction process to monetize these properties and turn a liability into an asset. Some of these sites have been on the market for over three years, and we are marking them down to sell."

In addition, the company reported a net loss of $86 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. As a comparison, the company reported net income of $15 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, which included an $87 million income tax benefit primarily due to a favorable IRS settlement.

Tja, Leute,

bin zwar nicht mehr ganz nah am Ball, hab YRC aber weiterhin in Beobachtung, so mit einem Auge.

Sieht nicht so aus, als ob´s der Gigant nochmal schafft. Die ganzen Rettungsversuche inkl. der Deals mit Banken und Teamster, sowie der massive Verkauf von Assets haben, so scheinst, die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit von YRC so abschmieren lassen, dass sie wohl nicht mehr hochkommen.

Und das Interesse der Anleger lässt auch immer mehr nach, wie die Umsätze aufzeigen.

Ich hatte im Dezember 2010 mal einen Artikel vom Motley Fool übersetzt, dessen letzter Satz lautete:

"Sometimes, the way to deal with a hole is to stop digging. With YRC, however, we should just fill in the hole, lay flowers upon the grave, and walk away."

Manchmal ist es klüger, in einem Loch das Buddeln einzustellen. Im Falle YRC jedoch sollten wir es zuschütten, Blumen auf´s Grab legen und weggehen.

Wie gesagt, Dezember 2010.
