	SAN ANTONIO, Feb. 11, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rush Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq:RUSHA) (Nasdaq:RUSHB), which operates the largest network of commercial vehicle dealerships in North America, today reported record annual revenues of $3.4 billion compared to $3.1 billion in 2012 and net income of $49.2 million, or $1.22 per diluted share. In 2013, the Company recognized a pre-tax charge of $10.8 million in its selling, general and administrative expense related to the Retirement and Transition Agreement with W. Marvin Rush, Chairman Emeritus. The charge results in a reduction of $6.6 million in net income, or $0.16 per diluted share.</p><p>
	"2013 was a year of continued investment, growth and solid financial performance, for our Company," said W. M. "Rusty" Rush, Chairman, CEO and President of Rush Enterprises, Inc. "We achieved record annual revenues, increased medium-duty, light-duty and used truck sales, and expanded our leasing business and revenues. We also augmented our solutions capabilities, completed expansion projects on existing facilities and acquired 5 dealer groups, adding 29 dealership locations to our Rush Truck Centers network," said Rush.</p><p>
	"I am proud of our performance in 2013 and extremely grateful to all our employees who contributed to the Company's success this year, especially given our rapid pace of growth. We welcomed more than 1,300 new employees to the Company in 2013 and look forward to serving new and existing customers across the country with excellence," added Rush.</p><p align="center">
	<strong><i>Continued Growth</i></strong></p><p>
	"2013 was a year of growth. We expanded the Rush Truck Centers network to 107 locations in 20 states across the country. Our goal to keep our customers up and running drives our growth strategy. We want to consistently service customers when and where they operate &#8211; locally, regionally and nationally. We made substantial progress towards our growth strategy in two ways &#8211; by investing in our core Peterbilt Division and expanding our Navistar footprint," said Rush.</p><p>
	"We continue to strengthen our Peterbilt Division by investing in facility expansions, construction of new dealerships and aftermarket services that provide our long-standing customers more solutions to help drive efficiencies into their businesses. In 2013, the Company opened a new Peterbilt, Hino and Paclease dealership and leasing operation in Corpus Christi, Texas and renovated existing facilities in Laredo, Houston and Dallas, Texas to increase square footage and capabilities. The Company also has projects underway to construct new facilities in San Antonio, Texas and Denver, Colorado and increase capacity in Abilene, Texas and Whittier, California in 2014. We also installed dedicated natural gas service bays at certain dealerships in Oklahoma and Texas and have plans underway for similar investments in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Tennessee, and Texas. When completed, these projects will result in a direct investment of more than $40 million in our Peterbilt Division," Rush added.</p><p>
	In 2013, the Company also significantly expanded its dealership network. "We acquired certain assets of Prairie International in Central Illinois in October 2013, and Chicago International Trucks and Indy Truck Sales in January 2014, both of which operate International commercial truck dealerships and Idealease commercial lease and rental operations. With these newly acquired locations and others previously acquired in Ohio, North Carolina, Kansas, Missouri and Virginia since December 31, 2012, we have more than doubled the size of our Navistar Division locations. We believe these acquired stores will cumulatively produce approximately $1 billion in annual revenue in 2014," Rush explained.</p><p>
	"Equally important to the number of dealerships we added is where we added them. We acquired locations in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic United States, where Navistar has strong market share and where we had not previously had a significant presence," Rush added. "Consistent with our focus to keep customers up and running, we can now service customers operating in these regions and better serve national fleets whose operations route them through these areas of the country."</p><p>
	"Our focus in 2014 turns to integration and execution," said Rush. "We can now build on the strength of our entire footprint by integrating our service culture and performance metrics into all our operations. That combined with standardized processes and best practices will help drive a consistent, excellent experience for all of our customers, no matter where they are in the country," Rush added.</p><p align="center">
	<strong><i>Operations</i></strong></p><p>
	<strong><u>Aftermarket Solutions</u></strong></p><p>
	Aftermarket services accounted for 64.4% of the Company's total gross profits in 2013 with parts, service and body shop revenues reaching a new record of $988.3 million, up 20.9% over 2012.&#160;We achieved an annual absorption rate of 114%.&#160;</p><p>
	"Continued strong demand for maintenance and repair of aged vehicles combined with our expanding portfolio of aftermarket solutions continued to drive strong parts, service and body shop revenues throughout the year, " Rush commented.&#160;</p><p>
	"Keeping our customers up and running, when and where they need it, is a top priority for our parts and service network.&#160;We continue to invest in technology, human resources, training and facilities to enhance our capabilities in mobile service, custom vehicle modifications, alternate fuel service, repair diagnostics, rapid parts delivery, customer communication and preventive care," he explained.&#160;"We continue to evaluate all opportunities to add innovative products or services to expand our solutions capabilities."</p><p>
	<strong><u>Truck Sales</u></strong></p><p>
	In 2013, Rush's Class 8 retail sales of 9,545 units accounted for&#160;5.1% of the total U.S. Class 8 retail truck sales market.&#160;U.S. Class 8 retail sales in 2013 decreased 6%, to 187,610 units from 198,715 units in 2012.</p><p>
	"As anticipated, energy sector customers delayed truck purchases in 2013 as they worked through excess capacity purchased in 2011 and 2012, and large fleets experienced continued driver shortages.&#160;Incremental truck sales from our newly acquired Navistar locations did help offset the decline in our Class 8 truck sales," said Rush. &#160;</p><p>
	"Peterbilt continues to be a strong player in the fleet, owner-operator and vocational segments and its next generation product line has gained market acceptance.&#160;In addition, our sales of Peterbilt's natural gas-powered Class 8 trucks continue to rise, having sold more than 800 trucks in 2013.&#160;We expect natural gas will continue to gain momentum as the fueling infrastructure is put in place across the country," Rush continued.</p><p>
	"Navistar continues to gradually regain market share.&#160;We believe truck sales from our Navistar Division will continue to improve in 2014 as customers continue to gain confidence in their truck and engine combinations," said Rush.&#160;</p><p>
	Rush's U.S. Class 4-7 medium-duty truck sales reached 8,441 units in 2013, up 18% over 2012, and accounted for 4.7% of the U.S. Class 4-7 market. Light-duty truck sales also increased 41% over last year.&#160;"Continued improvement in housing and construction, growth in the vocational fleet market and incremental truck sales from newly acquired locations drove improvement in medium-duty truck sales this year.&#160;In light-duty, we are seeing the benefits of synergies with our existing customer base and our ability to offer a diverse product line-up that meets a range of vehicle needs.&#160;Our Ford franchises, particularly the ones in Florida and Texas, have performed extremely well," Rush commented.</p><p>
	Used truck sales were also up 35% in 2013.&#160;"We expect demand for used trucks will continue as fewer new trucks built from 2008 to 2010 come into the secondary market.&#160;We are developing new business models to take advantage of the used truck market potential," said Rush.</p><p>
	Industry experts forecast U.S. retail sales for Class 8 vehicles to reach 213,500 units in 2014, a 14% increase over 2013.&#160;Industry experts also forecast U.S. retail sales for Class 4-7 vehicles to reach 193,500 units in 2014, an 8% increase over 2013.&#160;</p><p>
	"With the economy gaining momentum, order intake climbing in the past few months, and improved activity in automotive, housing, construction and energy sectors, we believe retail sales could improve in the second half of 2014," explained Rush.&#160;</p><p>
	"We also believe the incremental business resulting from recent acquisitions, and our ability to offer innovative aftermarket solutions to customers will positively impact Rush's heavy- and medium-duty truck sales in 2014," Rush said.</p><p align="center">
	<strong><i>Financial Highlights</i></strong></p><p>
	In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company's gross revenues totaled $925.2 million, a 26.3% increase from gross revenues of $732.3 million reported for the fourth quarter of 2012. Net income for the quarter was $14.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to $14.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the quarter ended December 31, 2012.</p><p>
	For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company's gross revenues totaled $3.4 billion, a 9.5% increase from gross revenues of $3.1 billion reported in 2012. The Company reported net income for the year of $49.2 million, or $1.22 per diluted share, compared with a net income of $62.5 million, or $1.57 per diluted share in 2012.&#160;In 2013, the Company recognized a pre-tax charge of $10.8 million in its selling, general and administrative expense related to the Retirement and Transition Agreement with W. Marvin Rush, Chairman Emeritus.&#160;The charge results in a reduction of $6.6 million in net income, or $0.16 per diluted share.&#160;</p><p>
	Parts, service and body shop revenue was $256.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $201.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2012.&#160;The Company delivered 2,787 new heavy-duty trucks, 2,040 new medium-duty commercial vehicles, 526 new light-duty commercial vehicles and 1,838 used commercial vehicles during the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to 2,102 new heavy-duty trucks, 1,801 new medium-duty commercial vehicles, 393 new light-duty commercial vehicles and 1,039 used commercial vehicles in the fourth quarter of 2012.&#160;</p><p>
	Parts, service and body shop revenue was $988.3 million in the year ended 2013, compared to $817.3 million in the year ended 2012.&#160;The Company sold 26,336 new and used commercial vehicles in 2013, a 13.7% increase compared to 23,171 new and used commercial vehicles in 2012.&#160;The Company delivered 9,545 new heavy-duty trucks, 8,441 new medium-duty commercial vehicles, 1,945 new light-duty commercial vehicles and 6,405 used commercial vehicles during 2013, compared to 9,925 new heavy-duty trucks, 7,126 new medium-duty commercial vehicles, 1,376 new light-duty commercial vehicles and 4,744 used commercial vehicles during 2012.&#160;</p><p>
	The Company's Rush Truck Leasing operations increased revenues by 29% as compared to 2012, primarily the result of acquisitions and a successful service model that maximizes uptime for contracted customers.&#160;Including newly acquired franchises, Rush Truck Leasing now operates 39 Paclease and 23 Idealease franchises in markets across the country with more than 5,300 trucks in its lease and rental fleet and an additional 936 trucks under contract maintenance agreements.&#160;</p><p>
	"We finished 2013 in strong financial position. We ended the year with $217 million in cash, despite significant expenditures related to acquisitions and the Company's share repurchase program," said Rush. "Employee benefits and payroll taxes, acquisition costs and expenses related to the accelerated rollout of our business operation system will negatively impact expenses in the first quarter of 2014."</p><p style="text-align: center">

	Management uses several performance metrics to evaluate the performance of its commercial vehicle dealerships, and considers Rush Truck Centers' "absorption ratio" to be of critical importance.&#160;Absorption ratio is calculated by dividing the gross profit from the parts, service and body shop departments by the overhead expenses of all of a dealership's departments, except for the selling expenses of the new and used commercial vehicle departments and carrying costs of new and used commercial vehicle inventory.&#160;When 100% absorption is achieved, then gross profit from the sale of a commercial vehicle, after sales commissions and inventory carrying costs, directly impacts operating profit.</p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="6" style=" border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 6px ">

	Management uses "Adjusted Total Debt" to reflect the Company's estimated financial obligations less debt related to lease and rental fleet (L&amp;RFD) and floor plan notes payable (FPNP), and "Adjusted Net Debt" to present the amount of Adjusted Total Debt net of cash and cash equivalents on the Company's balance sheet.&#160;The FPNP is used to finance the Company's new and used inventory, with its principal balance changing daily as vehicles are purchased and sold and the sale proceeds are used to repay the notes.&#160;Consequently, in managing the business, management views the FPNP as interest bearing accounts payable, representing the cost of acquiring the vehicle that is then repaid when the vehicle is sold, as the Company's credit agreements require it to repay loans used to purchase vehicles when such vehicles are sold.&#160;The Company's lease &amp; rental fleet are fully financed and are either (i) leased to customers under long-term lease arrangements or (ii), to a lesser extent, dedicated to the Company's rental business.&#160; In both cases, the lease and rental payments fully cover the capital costs of the lease &amp; rental fleet (i.e., the principal repayments and interest expense on the borrowings used to acquire the vehicles and the depreciation expense associated with the vehicles), plus a profit margin for the Company.&#160;The Company believes excluding the FPNP and L&amp;RFD from the Company's total debt for this purpose provides management a more accurate picture of the Company's capital structure and leverage profile and assists investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by Company management and research analysts.&#160;"Adjusted Total Debt" and "Adjusted Net Debt" are both non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's debt obligations, as reported in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in accordance with U.S. GAAP.&#160;Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may vary among companies and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.</p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="6" style=" border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 6px ">

	The Company presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as additional information about its operating results. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA that excludes the addition of interest expense associated with FPNP to EBITDA is consistent with management's presentation of Adjusted Total Debt, in each case reflecting management's view of interest expense associated with the FPNP as an operating expense of the Company, and to provide management a more accurate picture of its operating results and to assist investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by management and research analysis. Management recorded a one-time charge to selling, general and administrative expense during the second quarter of 2013 related to the Retirement and Transition Agreement between W. Marvin Rush and the Company.&#160;Management views this as a non-recurring event that is not indicative of the core operating expenses of the Company. Management believes adding back this one-time charge to EBITDA provides both the investors and management a more accurate picture of the Company's core operating results.

	"Free Cash Flow" and "Adjusted Free Cash Flow" are key financial measures of the Company's ability to generate cash from operating its business.&#160;Free Cash Flow is calculated by subtracting the acquisition of property and equipment included in the <i>Cash flows from investing activities</i> from <i>Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities</i>.&#160;For purposes of deriving Adjusted Free Cash Flow from the Company's operating cash flow, Company management makes the following adjustments: (i) adds back draws (or subtracts payments) on the floor plan financing that are included in <i>Cash flows from financing activities</i> as their purpose is to finance the vehicle inventory that is included in <i>Cash flows from operating activities</i>, (ii) adds back proceeds from notes payable related specifically to the financing of the lease and rental fleet that are reflected in <i>Cash flows from financing activities</i>, (iii) subtracts draws on floor plan financing, net and proceeds from L&amp;RFD related to business acquisition assets that are included in <i>Cash flows from investing activities, (</i>iv) subtracts principal payments on notes payable related specifically to the financing of the lease and rental fleet that are included in <i>Cash flows from financing activities</i>, and (v) adds back non-maintenance capital expenditures that are for growth and expansion (i.e. building of new dealership facilities and the development of the SAP enterprise software) that are not considered necessary to maintain the current level of cash generated by the business.&#160;"Free Cash Flows" and "Adjusted Free Cash Flows" are both presented so that investors have the same financial data that management uses in evaluating the Company's cash flows from operating activities.&#160;"Free Cash Flow" and "Adjusted Free Cash Flow" are both non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net cash provided by (used in) operations of the Company, as reported in the Company's consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in accordance with U.S. GAAP.&#160;Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may vary among companies and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.</p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="6" style=" border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 6px ">

	"Adjusted Invested Capital" is a key financial measure used by the Company to calculate its return on invested capital.&#160;For purposes of this analysis, management excludes L&amp;RFD, FPNP, and cash and cash equivalents, for the reasons provided in the debt analysis above and uses Adjusted Net Debt in the calculation.&#160;The Company believes this approach provides management a more accurate picture of the Company's leverage profile and capital structure, and assists investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by Company management and research analysts. "Adjusted Total Debt" and "Adjusted Invested Capital" are both non-GAAP financial measures. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may vary among companies and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.</p><pre>CONTACT: Rush Enterprises, Inc., San Antonio
