GATX Corporation Reports 2003 Third Quarter Results

     - GATX Board declares quarterly common dividend of $.32 per share

    CHICAGO, Oct. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GATX Corporation (NYSE: GMT)
today announced its 2003 third quarter results.  For the 2003 third quarter,
GATX reported net income of $22.7 million or $.46 per diluted share compared
to net income of $19.1 million or $.39 per diluted share in the prior year
period.  The 2003 third quarter results benefited from a $7.3 million
after-tax, or $.13 per diluted share, insurance recovery on previously
expensed litigation-related charges.
    For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, GATX reported net
income of $49.3 million or $1.00 per diluted share.  The first nine months of
2003 includes $10 million after-tax, or $.20 per diluted share, related to
insurance recoveries and $7.1 million after-tax, or $.14 per diluted share of
air impairments and charges, resulting in a net positive impact on income of
$2.9 million after-tax, or $.06 per diluted share.
    For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, net income was
$29.7 million or $.61 per diluted share.  The first nine months of 2002
included a gain on the sale of GATX Terminals -- related assets totaling
$6.2 million after-tax, or $.13 per diluted share, and a goodwill impairment
charge related to the adoption of SFAS 142 totaling $34.9 million after-tax,
or $.72 per diluted share, resulting in a net negative impact on income of
$28.7 million after-tax, or $.59 per diluted share.
    Ronald H. Zech, chairman and president of GATX, stated, "Operating
conditions for GATX over the past two quarters have been relatively
consistent.  Our core businesses have stabilized and certain market indicators
have shown signs of improving, yet we remain cautious regarding potential
volatility in air and the general strength of the economy.
    "Railcar utilization levels remained steady with the prior quarter and
above 2002 levels.  This reflects market conditions as well as aggressive
fleet management activities such as targeted marketing programs, new car
placements, and prudent car scrapping.  The lease rate environment remains
challenging, resulting in continued pressure on 2003 rail revenues and income.
In air, the summer months produced improved traffic statistics, expected with
the seasonal pattern in this industry.  GATX experienced a reduced level of
lease renegotiation requests and stabilizing lease rates during this period.
While encouraging, defining recent activity as a trend is premature until we
see how airlines perform during the more challenging fall and winter seasons."
    Mr. Zech added, "We currently expect 2003 earnings to be in the range of
$1.30 per diluted share, including the net $.06 per diluted share benefit
outlined above.  This assumes no material change in operating conditions, no
additional air-related impairments and/or charges, and no additional insurance
recoveries."

    DIVIDEND ANNOUNCEMENT
    The board of directors of GATX Corporation today declared a quarterly
dividend of $.32 per common share, payable December 31, 2003, to shareholders
of record on December 15, 2003.
    Mr. Zech stated, "As noted at the beginning of 2003, the board makes the
dividend decision after analyzing a variety of factors, such as the timing and
magnitude of a recovery in GATX's core markets and earnings, the stability of
our operating environment, and our capital structure and cash flow
projections.  As GATX's outlook for 2004 and beyond becomes clearer in the
coming months, the board will continue its regular evaluation of the
appropriate dividend level."
    The board also declared a quarterly dividend of $.625 per share on the
$2.50 preferred stock, payable December 1, 2003, to shareholders of record on
November 14, 2003.
    These common and preferred dividends declared today are unchanged from the
previous quarter.

    GATX RAIL
    GATX Rail reported net income of $13.6 million in the 2003 third quarter
compared to $14.7 million in the prior year period.  For the nine-month
period, 2003 net income was $36.1 million compared to net income of
$10.0 million in the prior year.  The 2002 nine-month results included a
$34.9 million after-tax goodwill impairment charge related to the adoption of
SFAS 142.
    Reflecting the dynamics of renewing leases in a challenging market, lease
rate and revenue pressure in the North American market continues.  Through the
first nine months of 2003, North American lease revenue declined approximately
6%, or $26 million, compared to the prior year period.  The revenue and income
pressure in North America was partially offset by positive contributions by
GATX Rail's European operations, both in terms of improved operating
performance and from the integration of KVG which was purchased at the close
of 2002.
    GATX Rail's North American fleet of 104,000 cars was 93% utilized at the
end of the 2003 third quarter, level with second quarter utilization and up
from 91% at 2002 year end.  The improvement in utilization year to date
reflects a combination of cars moving from idle to active status and car
scrapping activity.
    GATX Rail's North American maintenance expense is running higher than
prior year comparable periods due to an increase in cars repaired and costs
associated with both discretionary and mandated repairs.  The increase in
North American maintenance expense has essentially been offset by lower SG&A,
driven by GATX Rail's cost reduction and efficiency initiatives.
    Certain macroeconomic data that relate to GATX Rail's business provide an
indication of a stabilizing operating environment:  North American
manufacturing capacity utilization, as reported by the Federal Reserve, was
75% at the end of September 2003, up from 74% at the end of the prior quarter
but down from 76% at the end of the prior year period; industry-wide chemical
carload shipments increased a nominal 1.0% in the first nine months of 2003
versus the prior year; and total rail carload shipments decreased .3% in the
first nine months of 2003 versus the prior year.  Certain data specifically
related to GATX Rail also show stability and/or signs of improvement:
customer order inquiries at GATX Rail are ahead of prior year levels, and
order backlogs at major railcar manufacturers are well above prior year
levels, reflecting greater activity among the customer base.

    FINANCIAL SERVICES
    Financial Services reported third quarter net income of $13.6 million
compared to net income of $12.2 million in the prior year period.  The 2003
third quarter results include $7.3 million of after-tax income resulting from
an insurance recovery.
    For the first nine months of 2003, Financial Services reported net income
of $29.9 million compared to net income of $34.3 million in the prior year.
The 2003 year-to-date results include the aforementioned $2.9 million net
positive impact from insurance recoveries offset by air-related impairments
and charges.
    An updated slide presentation outlining GATX Air's portfolio is available
at http://www.gatx.com .  In addition to maintaining high fleet utilization, GATX Air
has substantially completed its new aircraft placement and remarketing
activities for 2003.  Additionally, two of the three scheduled new aircraft
deliveries in 2004 have been assigned to carriers under a lease or letter of
intent.  Airline performance improved during the summer season.  However, as
the more challenging fall and winter seasons progress, carrier performance
will be monitored closely and any material weakening may result in an increase
in renegotiation requests or unplanned returns.
    Third quarter investment volumes at GATX Technology, while running below
targeted levels, improved from prior quarter levels.  GATX Technology has
positioned itself to capitalize on an expected recovery in technology spending
by enhancing its marketing capabilities and programs.
    Financial Services' total investment volume for the third quarter was
$114 million compared to $197 million in the prior year period.  For the
nine-month period, 2003 investment volume totaled $490 million compared to
$829 million in the prior year.  The decline in 2003 investment volume
primarily reflects lower scheduled new aircraft deliveries, the exit from the
venture leasing business, and the planned curtailment of new investment in the
specialty area.
    Remarketing income, comprised of both gains on asset sales and residual
sharing fees, was $7.7 million in the 2003 third quarter compared to
$10.2 million in the prior year.  The 2003 third quarter remarketing activity
was primarily concentrated in the specialty portfolio.
    Warrant income was $5.8 million in the 2003 third quarter compared to
$2.3 million in the prior year period.  While GATX is exiting the venture
leasing business and the asset level in this area is decreasing rapidly,
warrants will be retained in many companies during and after loan repayments.

    CREDIT STATISTICS
    GATX continues to maintain an appropriate reserve level.  At the end of
the 2003 third quarter, the allowance for losses was 7.1% of reservable
assets, marginally above the prior quarter and prior year periods.
    Net charge-offs and impairments totaled $7.2 million during the 2003 third
quarter, or 0.4% of average total assets on an annualized basis.  Net
charge-offs and impairments in the 2002 third quarter totaled $18.4 million,
or 1.0% of average total assets.  Charge-offs and impairments in the 2003
third quarter were primarily in the venture and specialty portfolios, and the
lower level compared to prior year periods reflects a more stable credit
environment in the rail, technology, specialty, and venture areas.
    Non-performing leases and loans at the end of the 2003 third quarter
totaled $148.5 million or 5.5% of Financial Services' investments compared to
$93.3 million (3.2%) in the prior year period and $144.2 million (5.2%) in the
2003 second quarter.  The higher non-performing levels in 2003 compared to the
prior year primarily relates to aircraft placed on non-performing status
during a renegotiation or repossession process.  Due to the fact that GATX
places the entire net book value of an aircraft in the non-performing
category, rather than using only the receivables associated with a troubled
aircraft lessee, the non-performing asset level is subject to volatility.
