YRC Worldwide Achieves Success With Financial Restructuring Plan
-- Company completes all major milestones of plan announced April 29

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., July 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- YRC Worldwide Inc. (Nasdaq: YRCW) announced today it has successfully closed the financial restructuring plan announced April 29, completing the last remaining milestones.

YRC Worldwide has:

   Issued new convertible notes for the infusion of $100 million in new capital.
   Increased liquidity by replacing the company's existing asset-backed securitization (ABS) facility with a new three-year, $400 million asset-based loan (ABL) facility. Commitments for the new ABL were announced earlier this month.
   Exchanged a portion of the company's loans and other obligations for new securities, including equity. As a result, the company's shareholders at the time of the exchange will be reduced to holding approximately 2.5 percent of the company's outstanding stock and will be subject to further dilution by a proposed management incentive plan and the conversion of new convertible notes.


In addition, the due dates of debt under the credit agreement and previously deferred pension payments have been extended until March 2015.

"YRC Worldwide has accomplished what the cynics said couldn't be done," said John Lamar, chief restructuring officer and lead director of YRCW. "We are grateful to all the stakeholders ? including union and non-union employees, lenders and customers ? who have supported us throughout this process. Together, we've done exactly what we set out to do two years ago: YRC Worldwide and our brands are positioned for long-term success."

Important additional information can be found in the Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Top Buy and Sell Ideas Based on Last Week's Biggest Losers (Part 1)

July 25, 2011

Sell YRC Worldwide Inc. (YRCW): YRCW is an international provider of asset and non-asset based transportation services across the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada, Guam and Mexico, via its brands iYellow Transportation, Roadway, Reimer Express, USF Holland, USF Reddaway, USF Glen Moore and New Penn. The stock dropped 21.4% during the past week; it is down 72.3% year-to-date (YTD) and down 99.33% from its 2009 highs less than two years ago.

The company has been flirting with bankruptcy for the last two-and-a-half years, and during that time the proverbial ‘sign on the wall’ has been there for all that have wanted to see it. It has been pretty obvious to all but the utterly faithful that the company was destined for either bankruptcy meaning a complete loss for equity holders, or some kind of a deal that would leave equity holders with a very small fraction of the company. The stock has mounted many tradable strong rallies during the last two years, but every rally has been an opportunity to sell. Sadly, we think that remains the case as even now after the recent restructuring and the steep drop in price, the stock remains expensive compared to its peers.

The recent restructuring deal dilutes existing shareholders leaving them with a paltry 2.5% equity control, with lenders getting 72.5% and the labor union getting 25% of the control. With an implied market cap post-restructuring of almost $2 billion and $1.3 billion in post-restructuring liabilities, the stock trades at an enterprise value (EV) of $3.3 billion which is 16 times its projected 2011 EBITDA of $210 million. In comparison, its peers Con-way Inc. (CNW) trades at 8.3 EV/EBITDA, Werner Enterprises Inc. (WERN) trades at 6.2 EV/EBITDA, JB Hunt Transport Services (JBHT) trades at 10.7 EV/EBITDA and Old Dominion Freight Line Inc. (ODFL) trades at 9.9 EV/EBITDA.

Furthermore, analysts seem to agree with our bearishness on this stock as they give it a mean price target of 25c, and a high of 50c, well below the current $1.03 price; and of the thirteen analysts that cover the company, four rate it at hold, five rate it at underperform, and four rate it sell. Furthermore, none of the 70+ guru funds have a position in this stock. We would look to selling the stock into any future rallies going forward.

The Overland Park-based trucking company (Nasdaq: YRCW), which has flirted with bankruptcy during the past few years, disclosed plans for the stock split in a Monday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission but didn’t provide details, such as timing or the share ratio.

YRC effected a 1-for-25 reverse-stock split in October after prior restructuring efforts caused the number of common stock shares to balloon to 1.2 billion.

The latest restructuring agreement, which closed Friday, also envisions the company issuing millions of new shares to lenders in exchange for forgiving debts and to attract $100 million in new capital, reducing the stake of existing shareholders to 2.5 percent.

Also in the filing, the company said newly appointed CEO James Welch signed a four-year employment agreement and will receive $700,000 a year in salary, as well as stock incentive payments and as much as $250,000 in cash bonuses, assuming the company meets certain performance goals.

Welch also will receive reimbursement of reasonable business expenses, an automobile allowance and relocation assistance. The filing added that Welch won’t receive more than $1 million in total taxable compensation during any fiscal year before Jan. 1, 2013, to avoid additional pension expenses.

By comparison, former Chairman and CEO Bill Zollars, who retired Friday, received $927,030 in 2010 salary.

YRC also appointed Jamie Pierson as interim CFO, replacing William Trubeck, who was interim CFO until he, too, left the company Friday. Pierson works for turnaround firm Alvarez & Marsal   Alvarez & Marsal Latest from The Business Journals Top talent?
