Billionaire Jeffrey Ubben, ValueAct Capital Disclose Latest Activist Play

Jeffrey Ubben‘s ValueAct Capital has revealed its latest equity bet: Trinity Industries Inc (NYSE:TRN). According to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund has acquired approximately 10.4 million shares, the equivalent of 6.8% of the company’s common stock. ValueAct also states its intention to hold talks with the company’s management to “discuss ways to enhance shareholder value”, a sign that this stake is activist by nature.

Investors have reacted positively to ValueAct’s move, sending Trinity Industries Inc (NYSE:TRN) shares higher by 5.5% in pre-market trading. The industrial giant has seen its stock wobble around without a clear trend following the January selloff, having ended Thursday’s trading session at $20.97 per share, down 11% for the year.

The recently released second quarter financial report provided the stock with a slight boost, as the company’s earnings exceeded expectations. Trinity Industries posted $1.18 billion in revenue, which was inline with analysts’ expectations, and earnings of $0.62 per share, easily beating forecasts of $0.48 per share. “The current level of uncertainty in the industrial economy is continuing to impact the pace of new order volumes in some of our businesses. We remain highly focused on repositioning, streamlining, and aligning our manufacturing operations with current demand levels,” commented Timothy Wallace, CEO of Trinity.

Trinity Industries Inc (NYSE:TRN) is not very popular among the hedge funds tracked by Insider Monkey, as only 22 out of 770 funds reported a long position at the end of the first quarter, up from 20 at the end of December. Cliff Asness‘ AQR Capital Management boosted its stake by 38% during the quarter, to amass a little over 1.8 million shares, while Peter Rathjens, Bruce Clarke and John Campbell’s Arrowstreet Capital reported a fresh stake that amounted to 1.01 million shares.

which any such early termination applies) at a price equal to the Forward
Price, as set forth in Item 5 (c) (“Physical Settlement”), or (ii) pay to
the Counterparty the product of (x) the Number of Forward Shares multiplied
by (y) the Forward Price minus the arithmetic mean of the volume-weighted
average price per share for each trading day during a period (the length of
which period shall be the number of trading days over which one-fifth of the
average daily trading volume for the 30 consecutive calendar days immediately
preceding the Valuation Date would aggregate to the Number of Forward Shares)
following the Valuation Date of July 3, 2017 (or earlier if such Forward
Transaction is terminated early in accordance with its terms), if such amount
is positive, or receive from the Counterparty the absolute value of such
amount if such amount is negative (“Cash Settlement”).

A financing charge based on a spread over LIBOR will be added to the
amount, if any, owing by ValueAct Master Fund to the Counterparty pursuant to
Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement or subtracted from the amount, if any,
owing by the Counterparty to ValueAct Master Fund pursuant to Cash
Settlement, and an amount equal to the value of any dividends paid in respect
of the Number of Forward Shares for which the record date occurs during the
term of the applicable Forward Transaction will be subtracted from the
amount, if any, owing by ValueAct Master Fund to the Counterparty pursuant to
Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement or added to the amount, if any, owing
by the Counterparty to ValueAct Master Fund pursuant to Cash Settlement.

Under the terms of the Master Confirmation, ValueAct Master Fund shall
have the option to elect Physical Settlement or Cash Settlement for the
Forward Transactions, but Physical Settlement, which is the default
settlement method, shall only be available if the receipt of such shares by
ValueAct Master Fund would not violate the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Condition”). If, on the
Settlement Date, the HSR Condition is not satisfied and ValueAct Master Fund
has not elected Cash Settlement, the Settlement Date automatically will be
postponed until the HSR Condition is satisfied.

ValueAct Master Fund has the right to elect early termination of the
Forward Transactions, in whole or in part, at any time, and the Counterparty
has the right to elect early termination of the Forward Transactions, in
whole or in part, upon 90 calendar days’ prior written notice to ValueAct
Master Fund.

The Forward Transactions do not give the Reporting Persons direct or
indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over any securities of the
Issuer and do not require the Counterparty to acquire, hold, vote or dispose
of any securities of the Issuer. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim
any beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock that may be referenced
in such contracts and of any shares of Common Stock or other securities or
financial instruments that may be held from time to time by the Counterparty.

The Reporting Persons may, from time to time, enter into and dispose
of swaps, options or other derivative transactions with one or more
counterparties that are based upon the value of shares of the Common Stock,
which transactions may be significant in amount. The profit, loss and/or
return on such contracts may be wholly or partially dependent on the market
value of the shares of the Common Stock.
