Trinity (TRN) Q2 Revenue Drops 40%

Trinity Industries (NYSE:TRN), a leading producer of railcars and provider of rail-related leasing and services, released its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. The company reported GAAP earnings per share of $0.19 and GAAP revenue of $506 million, both falling short of analyst expectations of $0.27 per share and $583.53 million in revenue for Q2 2025. The quarter also marked a steep year-over-year decline in both revenue and profit, as GAAP revenue fell to $506.2 million and GAAP operating profit dropped to $95.4 million from $841.4 million and $141.9 million, respectively, in Q2 2024. Revenue (GAAP) was down nearly 40% compared to the prior-year quarter. Profits took a similar hit, reflecting continued weakness in the core railcar manufacturing business. Although the Railcar Leasing and Services segment demonstrated relative resilience, overall performance trailed expectations, as GAAP EPS of $0.19 was below the analyst estimate of $0.27, and the company is leaning on an expected rebound in the latter part of fiscal 2025. Management reaffirmed full-year 2025 guidance, signaling confidence in a recovery later in the year, though current results highlight challenges facing the rail manufacturing sector.
