AMERCO Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Financial Results
RENO, Nev., Feb. 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- AMERCO (Nasdaq: UHAL), 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 its third quarter ended December 31, 2020, of $183.0 million, or $9.33 per share, compared with net earnings of $30.9 million, or $1.58 per share, for the same period last year.
For the nine-month period ended December 31, 2020, net earnings available to shareholders were $537.1 million, or $27.39 per share, compared with net earnings of $319.7 million, or $16.31 per share, for the same period last year.
"Our investments over the past few years have positioned us to serve new and existing moving and self-storage customers during a time when the public has particularly needed U-Haul," stated Joe Shoen, chairman of AMERCO. "Most of our marketplaces are very competitive. Our team must keep its eye on the ball to meet current demand and build for the future."
Highlights of Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Results
- Self-moving equipment rental revenues increased $186.7 million or 30% during the third quarter of fiscal 2021, compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Transactions along with average revenue per transaction increased for both our In-town and one-way markets. During the quarter, we experienced an increase in the volume of our Corporate Account business. Compared with the same period last year, we increased the number of retail locations, independent dealers, box trucks and trailers in the rental fleet.
- Self-storage revenues increased $16.3 million, or 15% during the third quarter of fiscal 2021, compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The average monthly number of occupied units increased by 20%, or 65,000 units, during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared with the same period last year. The growth in revenues and square feet rented comes from a combination of occupancy gains at existing locations and from the addition of new capacity to the portfolio. Over the last twelve months, we added approximately 4.1 million net rentable square feet, or a 10% increase, with approximately 1.0 million of that coming on during the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
- Sales of self-moving and self-storage products and services increased $20.1 million, or 37% compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2021 due to increased sales of hitches, moving supplies and propane.
- For the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2020, depreciation, net of gains and losses on sales decreased $17.5 million. Depreciation expense on the rental equipment fleet decreased $9.5 million as new truck production has been slowed by COVID-19 related production delays earlier this year, while net gains on the disposal of rental equipment increased $13.1 million from higher resale values. All other depreciation increased $5.1 million due primarily to the increase in new moving and storage locations.
- For the first nine months of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, gross truck and trailer capital expenditures totaled approximately $541 million compared with $1,161 million, proceeds from the sales of rental equipment totaled $430 million compared with $591 million and spending on real estate related acquisitions and projects totaled approximately $365 million compared with $600 million, respectively.
- Fleet maintenance and repair costs increased $2.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared with the same period last year.
- Operating earnings at our Moving and Storage operating segment increased $202.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared with the same period last year. Total revenues increased $238.9 million and total costs and expenses increased $36.7 million.
- Cash and credit availability at the Moving and Storage operating segment was $1,343.3 million at December 31, 2020 compared with $498.1 million at March 31, 2020.
- On December 9, 2020, we declared a cash dividend on our Common Stock of $2.00 per share to holders of record on December 21, 2020. The dividend was paid on December 30, 2020.

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"). As of December 31, 2020, the balance of ROU-financing also includes the rental equipment purchased under new financing liability leases during the first nine months of fiscal 2021. The table below shows adjusted PPE as of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, by including the ROU-financing. The assets included in the ROU-financing is not a true book value as some of the assets are recorded at between 70% and 100% of value based on the lease agreement.
