U-Haul Holding Company Reports Fiscal 2024 Financial Results

RENO, Nev.--()--U-Haul Holding Company (NYSE: UHAL, UHAL.B), parent of U-Haul International, Inc., Oxford Life Insurance Company, Repwest Insurance Company and Amerco Real Estate Company, today reported net earnings available to shareholders for the year ended March 31, 2024, of $628.7 million, compared with $924.5 million for the same period last year.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company reported net losses available to shareholders of ($0.9) million compared with net earnings of $37.4 million, for the same period last year.

We are still a bit shy of where I expected to be on One-way moving transactions,” stated Joe Shoen, chairman of U-Haul Holding Company. “Our self-storage product has been strong. Rate cutting across many markets could erode our so far firm self-storage pricing. I continue to see pockets of opportunity for self-storage expansion and am pursuing these. We have a solid team in place and are focused.”

Highlights of Fiscal Year and Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

  • Self-moving equipment rental revenues decreased $10.0 million, or 1%, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, and finished the full year down $253.2 million, or 7%, compared with fiscal 2023. For the quarter and full year transactions, revenue and average miles driven per transaction decreased. We finished the quarter with March monthly revenue slightly better than the same period last year.
  • Self-storage revenues increased $17.5 million, or 9%, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, and for the full year increased $86.6 million, or 12%, compared with fiscal 2023. The average number of occupied units increased by 6%, or 31,000 units, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 compared with the same period last year. Occupancy across the entire portfolio decreased 1.4% to 79.8% from the fourth quarter of last year to this year while occupancy for the subsection of these locations that have been at 80% occupancy for the last two years was down 1.9% to 92.3%. In fiscal 2024, we added approximately 5.5 million net rentable square feet or 55,000 additional units.
  • For the quarter, depreciation on the rental equipment fleet increased $11.6 million while all other depreciation increased $12.3 million from buildings and improvements. Net gains from the sales of rental equipment decreased by $32.0 million. For the full fiscal year depreciation on the rental fleet increased by $44.0 million while all other depreciation increased by $40.0 million largely from buildings and improvements. Net gains from the sale of rental equipment decreased $91.8 million. Net losses from the disposal or retirement of land and buildings increased $2.0 million for the quarter and $2.3 million for the fiscal year.
  • Fleet maintenance and repair costs decreased $11.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 compared with the same period last year and increased $33.0 million for the full year of fiscal 2024 compared with the same period last year. The decline in the fourth quarter is largely a result of improved rotation of new trucks into the fleet and older trucks out of the fleet combined with the effects of less fleet rental activity this year.
  • Other operating costs at the Moving and Storage segment increased $21.3 million in the fourth quarter compared to the same period last year and $66.7 million for the full fiscal year 2024. Personnel costs accounted for an $8.8 million increase for the quarter and $50.4 million for the fiscal year.
  • Gross rental equipment capital expenditures for fiscal 2024 were approximately $1,619 million compared with approximately $1,299 million for fiscal 2023. Capital expenditures for the rental fleet, depending upon manufacturer availability, are expected to increase in fiscal 2025. Proceeds from the sales of rental equipment were approximately $728 million for fiscal 2024 compared with $688 million in fiscal 2023. Spending on real estate related acquisitions and projects decreased approximately $83 million to $1,258 million in fiscal 2024 compared with fiscal 2023.
  • Cash and credit availability at the Moving and Storage operating segment was $1,886.3 million and $2,499.2 million as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
  • On March 6, 2024, we declared a cash dividend on our Non-Voting Common Stock of $0.05 per share to holders of record on March 18, 2024. The dividend was paid on March 28, 2024.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

We calculate earnings per share using the two-class method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. The two-class method allocates the undistributed earnings available to common stockholders to the Company’s outstanding common stock, $0.25 par value (the “Voting Common Stock”) and the Series N Non-Voting Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the “Non-Voting Common Stock”) based on each share’s percentage of total weighted average shares outstanding. The Voting Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock are allocated 10% and 90%, respectively, of our undistributed earnings available to common stockholders. This represents earnings available to common stockholders less the dividends declared for both the Voting Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock.

Our undistributed earnings per share is calculated by taking the undistributed earnings available to common stockholders and dividing this number by the weighted average shares outstanding for the respective stock. If there was a dividend declared for that period, the dividend per share is added to the undistributed earnings per share to calculate the basic and diluted earnings per share. The process is used for both Voting Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock.

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarters and years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 for our Voting Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock were as follows:

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL RECONCILIATION SCHEDULE

As of April 1, 2019, we adopted the new accounting standard for leases. Part of this adoption resulted in approximately $1 billion of property, plant and equipment, net (“PPE”) being reclassed to Right of use assets - financing, net (“ROU-financing”). The tables below show adjusted PPE as of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, by including the ROU-financing. The assets included in ROU-financing are not a true book value as some of the assets are recorded at between 70% and 100% of value based on the lease agreement. This non-GAAP measure is intended as a supplemental measure of our balance sheet that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe that the use of this non-GAAP measure provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating our financial condition. This non-GAAP measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Below is a reconciliation of Moving and Storage non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules, such as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"). The Company believes that these widely accepted measures of operating profitability improve the transparency of the Company's disclosures and provide a meaningful presentation of the Company's results from its core business operations excluding the impact of items not related to the Company's ongoing core business operations and improve the period-to-period comparability of the Company's results from its core business operations. These non-GAAP financial measures are not substitutes for GAAP financial results and should only be considered in conjunction with the Company's financial information that is presented in accordance with GAAP. The earnings from operations for December 31, 2023, September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 have been adjusted from previously presented earnings releases as Moving and Storage interest income has been classified as Other interest income.
