Forward Guidance

Trinity lowered its full year adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $1.20 to $1.35 due to missed deliveries in the third quarter and related supply chain and efficiency impacts caused by congestion at the Mexico border. This guidance reflects expected meaningful growth in the fourth quarter, and the company maintains conviction in its ability to execute and close the year with solid momentum.
