NEWS RELEASE
Trinity Industries, Inc. Announces Completion of Spin-off of Arcosa, Inc.
and Resizing of Corporate Credit Facility
DALLAS - November 1, 2018 - Trinity Industries, Inc. (NYSE: TRN) ("Trinity"), announced today that it has completed the separation of its infrastructure-related business,
Arcosa, Inc. ("Arcosa"), a growth-oriented manufacturer of infrastructure-related products and services with leading positions in construction, energy, and transportation markets. The spin-off was effected through a pro rata dividend to Trinity's
stockholders of all outstanding Arcosa shares and is intended to qualify as a tax free distribution for federal income tax purposes.
Arcosa will begin trading "regular way" on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "ACA" at market open today. As a result of the spin-off, Trinity's focus will
center on its integrated rail manufacturing, leasing, and services businesses while continuing to operate its highway products and logistics businesses.
"Today marks an exciting day for the future of Trinity Industries and our history of evolutionary growth", said Timothy R. Wallace, Trinity's Chairman, Chief Executive
Officer and President. "We applaud all of our employees for their energy and enthusiasm in achieving this important milestone. The spirit in which they approached their individual contributions to the separation is testament to our core values of
flexibility, collaboration, and dedication to excellence".
Mr. Wallace continued, "I look forward to focusing our attention and resources on growth initiatives in the North American railcar industry while optimizing our capital
structure to support our operational and financial objectives. Trinity's history of expanding its products and services gives me a great deal of confidence in our ability to continue to improve, expand, and grow the Company's footprint in the
North American railcar industry. I believe we have an enormous amount of potential and that the best is yet to come".
In conjunction with the spin-off and go forward operations of the Company, Trinity also announced today that it has resized and extended its unsecured corporate revolving
credit facility through November 2023. The facility was previously scheduled to mature in May 2020. The facility commitment was also decreased from $600 million to $450 million to more appropriately align with the size of the Company's continuing
operations.
About the Spin-off
The Arcosa stock dividend occurred effective at 12:01 a.m. local New York City time on November 1, 2018. Trinity stockholders of record as of 5:00 p.m. local New York City
time on October 17, 2018 received one share of Arcosa common stock for every three shares of Trinity common stock held as of the record date. No fractional shares of Arcosa's common stock were distributed. Fractional shares of Arcosa's common stock
were aggregated and are being sold on the open market. The aggregate net proceeds of the sales will be distributed pro rata (based on the fractional share such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive) to Trinity stockholders who would
otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Arcosa's common stock.
