Earnings Beat at Triton in Q1

Total leasing revenues of $417.1 million meet the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The top line jumped 20.3% year over year, driven by more than 300% year-over-year rise in revenues from finance leases. Revenues from operating leases (which accounted for 90.6% of the top line) grew marginally year over year.
