Freightcar America Inc's Comment on Sales, Marketing and Customers
We have strong long-term relationships with many large purchasers of railcars.
Long-term customer relationships are particularly important in the railcar industry,
given the limited number of buyers of railcars.
Our customer base consists mostly of North American railroads, financial institutions
and shippers. We believe that our customers’ preference for reliable,
high-quality products, the relatively high cost for customers to switch manufacturers,
our technological leadership in developing and enhancing innovative products
and the competitive pricing of our railcars have helped us maintain our long-standing
relationships with our customers.
Rrevenue from three customers, CSX Transportation Inc., SMBC Rail Services and
Progress Rail Services Corporation, accounted for approximately 36%, of total
revenue. Sales to our top five customers accounted for approximately 86% of
total revenue. While we maintain strong relationships with our customers and
serve over 70 active customers, many customers do not purchase railcars every
year since railcar fleets are not necessarily replenished or augmented every
year. The size and frequency of railcar orders often results in a small number
of customers representing a significant portion of our sales in a given year.
Our direct sales group is organized geographically and consists of regional
sales managers and contract administrators, a manager of customer service and
support staff. The regional sales managers are responsible for managing customer
relationships. Our contract administrators are responsible for preparing proposals
and other inside sales activities. Our manager of customer service is responsible
for after-sale follow-up and in-field product performance reviews.
