GATX NYSE Construction Machinery & Heavy Transportation Equipment Financials FY2016βFY2025
GATX's revenue rose 9.8% to $1.7 billion in fiscal 2025. Its net margin was 19.1%, up from 17.9% a year earlier. It paid out $155 million in dividends and buybacks.
About these figures. GATX's 2024 and 2025 filings don't tag the cash it spends on railcars and other equipment (its portfolio investments) in the SEC's structured data, so capital spending and free cash flow are blank for those years.
