-- TFIインターナショナル(TFII.TO、TFII)は月曜日の取引終了後、第1四半期の調整後利益が前年同期比11%減となったと発表した。売上高はほぼ横ばいだったものの、アナリスト予想を上回った。 トラック輸送・物流会社である同社は、ほとんどの特別項目を除いた調整後利益が5,720万ドル(1株当たり0.69ドル)となり、前年同期の6,420万ドル(1株当たり0.76ドル)から減少したが、ファクトセットの予想である1株当たり0.61ドルを上回ったと発表した。 同四半期の売上高は19億5,000万ドルで、前年同期の19億6,000万ドルとほぼ横ばいだったが、ファクトセットの予想である19億ドルを上回った。燃料サーチャージ控除前の売上高は17億ドルで、前年同期の17億1,000万ドルから減少した。同社によると、この減少は主に最終市場需要の低迷による輸送量の減少によるもので、事業買収による貢献が一部相殺したという。 同社は、取締役会が前四半期と同額の四半期配当金0.47米ドルを承認したと発表した。 業績見通しにおいて、事業環境に重大なプラスまたはマイナスの変化がないと仮定した場合、2026年第2四半期の調整後希薄化後1株当たり利益(EPS)は1.50米ドルから1.60米ドルの範囲になると予想している。また、不動産を除く通期の純設備投資額は2億2,500万米ドルから2億5,000万米ドルになると見込んでいる。 「第1四半期は、四半期初めの悪天候にもかかわらず、トラック輸送事業と物流事業の両方で売上高と収益性が向上し、業績見通しを大幅に上回りました。これは、優秀なチームの努力と近年の戦略的投資の成果によるものです」と、アラン・ベダール最高経営責任者(CEO)は述べた。「景気低迷期に戦略的に実施した買収は、当社の強固な資本基盤によって可能となり、事業会社の多角化ポートフォリオを強化しました。その結果、産業分野の最終市場へのエクスポージャーが拡大し、業績に好影響を与え始めています。」 同社の株価はトロント証券取引所で1.04カナダドル下落し、188.53カナダドルで取引を終えた。
