|
|
|
•
|
the possibility that companies that we have acquired or may acquire, including BakerCorp International Holdings, Inc. (“BakerCorp”) and Vander Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries (“BlueLine”), could have undiscovered liabilities or involve other unexpected costs, may strain our management capabilities or may be difficult to integrate;
|
•
|
the cyclical nature of our business, which is highly sensitive to North American construction and industrial activities; if construction or industrial activity decline, our revenues and, because many of our costs are fixed, our profitability may be adversely affected;
|
•
|
our significant indebtedness (which totaled $11.6 billion at March 31, 2019) requires us to use a substantial portion of our cash flow for debt service and can constrain our flexibility in responding to unanticipated or adverse business conditions;
|
•
|
inability to refinance our indebtedness on terms that are favorable to us, or at all;
|
•
|
incurrence of additional debt, which could exacerbate the risks associated with our current level of indebtedness;
|
•
|
noncompliance with financial or other covenants in our debt agreements, which could result in our lenders terminating the agreements and requiring us to repay outstanding borrowings;
|
•
|
restrictive covenants and amount of borrowings permitted in our debt instruments, which can limit our financial and operational flexibility;
|
•
|
overcapacity of fleet in the equipment rental industry;
|
•
|
inability to benefit from government spending, including spending associated with infrastructure projects;
|
•
|
fluctuations in the price of our common stock and inability to complete stock repurchases in the time frame and/or on the terms anticipated;
|
•
|
rates we charge and time utilization we achieve being less than anticipated;
|
•
|
inability to manage credit risk adequately or to collect on contracts with a large number of customers;
|
•
|
inability to access the capital that our businesses or growth plans may require;
|
•
|
incurrence of impairment charges;
|
•
|
trends in oil and natural gas could adversely affect the demand for our services and products;
|
•
|
the fact that our holding company structure requires us to depend in part on distributions from subsidiaries and such distributions could be limited by contractual or legal restrictions;
|
•
|
increases in our loss reserves to address business operations or other claims and any claims that exceed our established levels of reserves;
|
•
|
incurrence of additional expenses (including indemnification obligations) and other costs in connection with litigation, regulatory and investigatory matters;
|
•
|
the outcome or other potential consequences of regulatory matters and commercial litigation;
|
•
|
shortfalls in our insurance coverage;
|
•
|
our charter provisions as well as provisions of certain debt agreements and our significant indebtedness may have the effect of making more difficult or otherwise discouraging, delaying or deterring a takeover or other change of control of us;
|
•
|
turnover in our management team and inability to attract and retain key personnel;
|
•
|
costs we incur being more than anticipated, and the inability to realize expected savings in the amounts or time frames planned;
|
•
|
dependence on key suppliers to obtain equipment and other supplies for our business on acceptable terms;
|
•
|
inability to sell our new or used fleet in the amounts, or at the prices, we expect;
|
•
|
competition from existing and new competitors;
|
•
|
risks related to security breaches, cybersecurity attacks, failure to protect personal information, compliance with data protection laws and other significant disruptions in our information technology systems;
|
•
|
the costs of complying with environmental, safety and foreign law and regulations, as well as other risks associated with non-U.S. operations, including currency exchange risk (including as a result of Brexit), and tariffs;
|
•
|
labor disputes, work stoppages or other labor difficulties, which may impact our productivity, and potential enactment of new legislation or other changes in law affecting our labor relations or operations generally;
|
•
|
increases in our maintenance and replacement costs and/or decreases in the residual value of our equipment; and
|
•
|
the effect of changes in tax law.

|
The transaction price is generally fixed and stated on our contracts;
|
•
|
As noted above, our contracts generally do not include multiple performance obligations, and accordingly do not generally require estimates of the standalone selling price for each performance obligation;
|
•
|
Our revenues do not include material amounts of variable consideration, or result in significant obligations associated with returns, refunds or warranties; and
|
•
|
Most of our revenue is recognized as of a point-in-time and the timing of the satisfaction of the applicable performance obligations is readily determinable. As noted above, our Topic 606 revenue is generally recognized at the time of delivery to, or pick-up by, the customer.

Borrowings under the accounts receivable securitization facility are permitted only to the extent that the face amount of the receivables in the collateral pool, net of applicable reserves and other deductions, exceeds the outstanding loans. As of March 31, 2019, there were $922 million of receivables, net of applicable reserves and other deductions, in the collateral pool.
|
(3)
|
In February 2019, the ABL facility was amended, primarily to increase the facility size to $3.75 billion, extend the maturity date to February 2024 and make a portion of the facility available for borrowing in British Pounds and Euros by certain subsidiaries of URNA in Europe.
|
(4)
|
URNA separately issued 4 7/8 percent Senior Notes in August 2017 and in September 2017. Following the issuances, we consummated an exchange offer pursuant to which most of the 4 7/8 percent Senior Notes issued in September 2017 were exchanged for additional notes fungible with the 4 7/8 percent Senior Notes issued in August 2017.
|
(5)
|
As discussed in note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we adopted an updated lease accounting standard on January 1, 2019. Upon adoption of the new standard, the leases that were previously classified as capital leases through December 31, 2018 were classified as finance leases. There were no significant changes to the accounting upon this change in classification.
|
(6)
|
As of March 31, 2019, our short-term debt primarily reflects $881 of borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization facility.

Item 2.
|
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (dollars in millions, except per share data, unless otherwise indicated)
|
•
|
A consistently superior standard of service to customers, often provided through a single point of contact;
|
•
|
The further optimization of our customer mix and fleet mix, with a dual objective: to enhance our performance in serving our current customer base, and to focus on the accounts and customer types that are best suited to our strategy for profitable growth. We believe these efforts will lead to even better service of our target accounts, primarily large construction and industrial customers, as well as select local contractors. Our fleet team's analyses are aligned with these objectives to identify trends in equipment categories and define action plans that can generate improved returns;
|
•
|
A continued focus on “Lean” management techniques, including kaizen processes focused on continuous improvement. We continue to implement Lean kaizen processes across our branch network, with the objectives of: reducing the cycle time associated with renting our equipment to customers; improving invoice accuracy and service quality; reducing the elapsed time for equipment pickup and delivery; and improving the effectiveness and efficiency of our repair and maintenance operations;
|
•
|
A continued focus on Project XL, which is a set of eight specific work streams focused on driving profitable growth through revenue opportunities and generating incremental profitability through cost savings across our business;
|
•
|
The continued expansion of our trench, power and fluid solutions footprint, as well as our tools offering, and the cross-selling of these services throughout our network, as exhibited by our acquisition of BakerCorp discussed in note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that the expansion of our trench, power and fluid solutions business, as well as our tools offering, will further position United Rentals as a single source provider of total jobsite solutions through our extensive product and service resources and technology offerings; and
|
•
|
The pursuit of strategic acquisitions to continue to expand our core equipment rental business, as exhibited by our recently completed acquisitions of NES Rentals Holdings II, Inc. (“NES”), Neff Corporation ("Neff") and BlueLine (which is discussed further in note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). Strategic acquisitions allow us to invest our capital to expand our business, further driving our ability to accomplish our strategic goals.
|
•
|
Issued $1.1 billion principal amount of 6 1/2 percent Senior Notes due 2026;
|
•
|
Entered into a $1 billion term loan facility;
|
•
|
Amended and extended our ABL facility, including an increase in the facility size from $3.0 billion to $3.75 billion; and
|
•
|
Amended and extended our accounts receivable securitization facility, including an increase in the facility size from $775 to $975.

Reflects the estimated impact of inflation on the revenue productivity of fleet based on OEC, which is recorded at cost.

(2)
|
Reflects the combined impact of changes in rental rates, time utilization, and mix that contribute to the variance in owned equipment rental revenue. See note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the different types of equipment rentals revenue. Rental rate changes are calculated based on the year-over-year variance in average contract rates, weighted by the prior period revenue mix. Time utilization is calculated by dividing the amount of time an asset is on rent by the amount of time the asset has been owned during the year. Mix includes the impact of changes in customer, fleet, geographic and segment mix.

2.
|
Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

4.
|
The registrants' other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrants and have:
|
a)

designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrants, including their consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;
|
b)
|
designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

evaluated the effectiveness of the registrants' disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and.

disclosed in this report any change in the registrants' internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrants' most recent fiscal quarter (the registrants' fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrants' internal control over financial reporting; and
|
5.
|
The registrants' other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrants' auditors and the audit committee of the registrants' board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrants' ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and
|
b)
|
any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the registrants' internal control over financial reporting.
