PACCAR delivered a total shareholder return of 45% compared to the S&P 500 Index total return of 31% in 2019.

"Freight tonnage grew 3.3% percent in the U.S. in 2019. The North American and European economies are projected to continue growing in 2020. We expect 2020 to be another strong year for PACCAR," added Feight.

Global Truck Markets

"Strong GDP and consumer spending growth in 2019 resulted in increased freight tonnage and record Kenworth and Peterbilt truck deliveries," said Darrin Siver, PACCAR senior vice president. "Kenworth and Peterbilt achieved strong U.S. and Canada Class 8 retail sales market share of 30.0%." Class 8 truck industry retail sales in the U.S. and Canada were 309,000 units in 2019 compared to 285,000 vehicles sold in 2018. U.S. and Canada Class 8 truck industry retail sales are expected to be in a range of 230,000-260,000 trucks in 2020.

European above 16-tonne truck industry registrations were 320,000 trucks in 2019. It is estimated that European truck industry registrations in the above 16-tonne market in 2020 will be another excellent year in the range of 260,000-290,000 trucks. "European truck demand remains strong due to steady European economic growth," said Harry Wolters, DAF president. "DAF achieved robust above 16-tonne market share of 16.2% in 2019. DAF trucks deliver premium quality, exceptional fuel efficiency and superior driver comfort for its customers."

The South American above 16-tonne truck market was 105,000 vehicles this year, and is projected to be in a range of 100,000-110,000 trucks in 2020. "Customer demand for DAF and Kenworth trucks resulted in a 59% increase in deliveries in South America in 2019," said Gary Moore, PACCAR executive vice president. The Brasilian above 16-tonne truck market was 75,000 vehicles in 2019, and is projected to be in a range of 70,000-80,000 trucks in 2020.

PACCAR Parts Achieves Record Results

PACCAR's aftermarket parts business achieved fourth quarter pre-tax income of $205.2 million, 6% higher than the $193.8 million earned in the fourth quarter of 2018.

PACCAR Parts achieved record annual pre-tax income of $830.8 million, 8% higher than the $768.6 million earned in 2018. Annual revenues were a record $4.02 billion compared to $3.84 billion in 2018. David Danforth, PACCAR vice president and PACCAR Parts general manager, said, "PACCAR Parts' revenue and profit growth has been driven by investments in distribution and technology, initiatives such as TRP all-makes parts, TRP stores and a growing population of integrated and connected PACCAR vehicles. More than 40% of Kenworth and Peterbilt Class 8 trucks and 100% of DAF above 16-tonne vehicles are sold with PACCAR Engines."

PACCAR Parts' 18 Distribution Centers (PDCs) support over 2,200 DAF, Kenworth and Peterbilt dealer locations and deliver industry-leading customer service.
