The Greenbrier Companies, Inc. hosted its inaugural Investor Day in New York, during which members of the company's leadership team discussed Greenbrier's market-leading position and diverse capabilities, strategic priorities, and multi-year outlook.

Building on Greenbrier's long history, we continue to evolve the company to keep improving its performance over economic cycles. As a result of our actions, we expect Greenbrier to maximize its financial performance during periods of strong market demand and stabilize performance at higher levels when demand is less favorable.

  • Robust lease origination capabilities and unique syndication model;
