Exhibit 99.3
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On May 29, 2025, GATX Corporation, a New York corporation (“GATX” or the “Company”), entered into a definitive agreement to acquire approximately 105,000 railcars from Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. a national banking association, and its affiliates (“Wells Fargo”), for $4.4 billion through a newly formed joint venture with Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. and its institutional partners (collectively, “Brookfield”). Initially, GATX’s ownership share in the joint venture (“GABX”) will be 30%, with Brookfield’s share at 70%. GATX holds annual call options to acquire up to 100% of GABX over time. A portion of the purchase price will be financed by GABX in the form of debt financing, which will be guaranteed by GATX. GATX will also directly purchase approximately 223 locomotives from Wells Fargo, and Brookfield will directly acquire Wells Fargo’s rail and locomotive finance lease portfolio (such transactions collectively, the "Transaction"). GATX will serve as manager of the railcars at GABX and the railcars and locomotives in the finance lease portfolio directly owned by Brookfield.
On September 16, 2025, GATX announced the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, in connection with the Transaction, which followed clearance from the European Commission under the EU merger regulation in August 2025. Additionally, the legal mandatory waiting period under the Canadian Competition Act expired on September 24, 2025 and, on October 9, 2025, the parties received a no-action letter from the Commissioner of Competition indicating that he does not intend to challenge the Transaction under the merger provisions of the Canadian Competition Act. Transaction approval is pending with additional regulatory agencies, following which the Transaction is anticipated to close in the first quarter of 2026 or sooner, subject to customary closing conditions; however, there can be no assurance as to when or whether all closing conditions will be satisfied and therefore there can be no assurance as to when the Transaction will be consummated or whether it will be consummated at all.
Although the Transaction described above and in Note 1. Description of the Transactions and Basis of Presentation is still subject to regulatory approval by multiple regulatory bodies, it is considered probable under Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (the “pro forma financial statements”) are presented herein in conjunction with GATX’s anticipated debt issuance under its shelf registration statement.
The pro forma financial statements combine the historical consolidated balance sheet and statement of income of GATX, and the historical combined balance sheet and income statement of Wells Fargo Rail, a carve out business of Wells Fargo, ("Wells Fargo Rail") after giving effect to the Transaction described in Note 1. Description of the Transactions and Basis of Presentation and the pro forma effects of the following items, as described in the notes to the pro forma financial statements:
•Preliminary adjustments to conform the financial statement presentation of Wells Fargo Rail to that of GATX.
•Application of the acquisition method of accounting under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-50, Acquisition of Assets Rather Than a Business, where the purchase price will be allocated to the railcars and locomotives acquired from Wells Fargo Rail on a relative fair value basis.
•Application of the consolidation accounting under FASB ASC 810, Consolidations, where GABX will be consolidated in the GATX financial statements, and Brookfield’s share of ownership will be reflected as noncontrolling interest in the GATX consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of income. GABX will be consolidated by GATX, as GATX was determined to be the primary beneficiary of the entity in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidations.
•Impact of debt financing incurred by GABX to finance the transaction.
•Exclusion of certain balances and activity related to the finance lease portfolio that are included in the historical financial statements of Wells Fargo Rail but will be directly acquired by Brookfield.
The following pro forma financial statements and related notes are based on and should be read in conjunction with:
•The historical audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes of GATX, included in GATX’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.
•The historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes of GATX, included in GATX’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
•The historical audited combined financial statements and the related notes of Wells Fargo Rail as of and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, filed in Exhibit 99.1 on this Form 8-K.
•The historical unaudited condensed combined financial statements and the related notes of Wells Fargo Rail as of June 30, 2025 and for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, filed in Exhibit 99.2 on this Form 8-K.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 gives pro forma effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on June 30, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024 give pro forma effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2024.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The pro forma financial statements are provided for informational purposes only. The pro forma financial statements are not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the actual results that would have been achieved had the Transaction been completed as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future. The pro forma financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses”, using the assumptions set forth in the pro forma financial statements.
Due to the pro forma financial statements being prepared based on preliminary estimates of the net assets to be acquired and balances as of June 30, 2025, the final purchase price allocation and the resulting effect on financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts included herein. As a result of the foregoing, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. Accordingly, actual adjustments may differ from the amounts reflected in the pro forma financial statements and the differences may be material. The pro forma financial statements do not include the realization of any cost savings from operating efficiencies which might occur as a result of the Transaction and management fees to be earned by GATX.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Description of the Transactions and Basis of Presentation
Acquisition
On May 29, 2025, GATX Corporation, a New York corporation (“GATX” or the “Company”), entered into a definitive agreement to acquire approximately 105,000 railcars from Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. a national banking association, and its affiliates (“Wells Fargo”), for $4.4 billion through a newly formed joint venture with Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. and its institutional partners (collectively, “Brookfield”). Initially, GATX’s ownership share in the joint venture (“GABX”) will be 30%, with Brookfield’s share at 70%. GATX holds annual call options to acquire up to 100% of GABX over time. A portion of the purchase price will be financed by GABX in the form of debt financing, which will be guaranteed by GATX. GATX will also directly purchase approximately 223 locomotives from Wells Fargo, and Brookfield will directly acquire Wells Fargo’s rail finance lease portfolio (such transactions collectively, the "Transaction"). GATX will serve as manager of the railcars at GABX and the finance lease portfolio owned by Brookfield.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (the “pro forma financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses,” using the assumptions set forth in the notes to the pro forma financial statements.
The pro forma financial statements have been prepared to illustrate the effect of the probable acquisition of approximately 105,000 railcars from Wells Fargo Rail by GABX, the newly formed joint venture between GATX and Brookfield, and the probable acquisition of approximately 223 locomotives from Wells Fargo Rail by GATX. The pro forma financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting, with GABX being the accounting acquirer of the railcars, and GATX being the accounting acquirer of the locomotives. Additionally, the pro forma financial statements have been prepared with GABX consolidated in the GATX financial statements and Brookfield’s ownership reflected as noncontrolling interest in the pro forma balance sheet and statements of income, following the guidance in ASC 810, Consolidations. GABX will be consolidated by GATX, as GATX was determined to be the primary beneficiary of the entity in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidations.
The pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2025, combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of GATX and the historical combined balance sheet of Wells Fargo Rail, giving effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on June 30, 2025. The pro forma statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and for the year ended December 31, 2024, combines the historical consolidated statement of income of GATX and the historical combined statement of income of Wells Fargo Rail, giving effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2024.
The pro forma financial statements are presented for informational purposes only and do not necessarily indicate the financial results of the combined operations had the operations been combined at the beginning of the periods presented, nor do they necessarily indicate the results of operations in future periods or the future financial position of the combined operations.
The pro forma financial statements do not include the realization of any cost savings from operating efficiencies which might occur as a result of the Transaction and management fees to be earned by GATX.
Note 2. Presentation Adjustments
The following adjustments were made to align the financial statements presentation of Wells Fargo Rail to GATX’s presentation, based on a preliminary analysis of Wells Fargo Rail’s historical financial statements (in millions):

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 3. Finance Lease Portfolio Adjustments
The historical combined financial statements of Wells Fargo Rail, filed in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 on this Form 8-K, include the historical rail business of Wells Fargo, which consists of two primary portfolios: operating leases and finance leases of railcars and locomotives. Under the Transaction, GATX and Brookfield will acquire the portfolio of operating leases through their newly formed joint venture, GABX. Brookfield will separately acquire Wells Fargo Rail’s portfolio of finance leases. The historical combined financial statements of Wells Fargo Rail that serve as the basis for the pro forma financial statements includes both the portfolios of operating leases and finance leases. Accordingly, the balances and activity that can be identified as directly associated with the finance lease portfolio in the combined financial statements of Wells Fargo Rail are excluded from the pro forma financial statements.
Note 4. Debt Financing Adjustments
The Transaction is expected to be partially financed through debt financing at the GABX joint venture level. On the pro forma balance sheet, effect is given to the expected amount of debt financing of $3.3 billion to be incurred to finance the transaction, as if the transaction had occurred on June 30, 2025. On the pro forma statements of income for the six months interim period ended June 30, 2025 and for the annual period ended December 31, 2024, effect is given to the amount of interest expense that would have been incurred had the Transaction occurred on January 1, 2024, based on the expected amount of debt financing of $3.3 billion and an expected variable interest rate of 5.641% as of June 30, 2025. Total interest expense at GABX, including certain fees classified as interest expense, is estimated to be $91.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $200.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The adjustment presented in the pro forma statements of income represent the difference between interest expense on the new debt financing at GABX and historical interest expense incurred by Wells Fargo Rail on their historical debt that is not included in the Transaction. An increase or decrease in the interest rate of one-eighth of one percent would result in an impact to interest expense of $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Deferred financing costs will be incurred but are not considered material and as such are not presented in the pro forma financial statements.
Note 5. Transaction Adjustments
The Transaction is expected to be accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805. The purchase price was estimated at $4.4 billion based on the terms under the purchase agreement, as if the Transaction had occurred on June 30, 2025.
The purchase price was estimated as follows as of June 30, 2025 (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Railcars acquired by GABX | | Locomotives acquired by GATX | | Total |
Operating assets | $ | 4,339.1 | | | $ | 41.0 | | | $ | 4,380.1 | |
Net working capital | (6.4) | | | 0.8 | | | (5.6) | |
Purchase price | 4,332.7 | | | 41.8 | | | 4,374.5 | |
Capitalized transaction costs | 24.0 | | | — | | | 24.0 | |
Total | $ | 4,356.7 | | | $ | 41.8 | | | $ | 4,398.5 | |
Transaction adjustments include the following related to the pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2025:
(a) Adjustment for the amount of cash to be paid by GABX for the acquisition of approximately 105,000 railcars from Wells Fargo Rail, and for the amount of cash to be paid by GATX for the acquisition of approximately 223 locomotives from Wells Fargo Rail. The amount of cash to be paid for the probable acquisitions of railcars and locomotives is based on the estimated purchase price of the Transaction as described above and the expected amount of debt to be incurred as described in Note 4. Debt Financing Adjustments. In GATX consolidation, the net change in cash presented on the pro forma balance sheet represents GATX’s cash contribution to the GABX joint venture for the acquisition of railcars, which is equal to GATX’s 30% share of the purchase price of railcars acquired by GABX, less the debt incurred for financing of the Transaction and 100% of the purchase price of locomotives acquired directly by GATX.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(b) Adjustment to reflect the amount capitalized as operating assets on the GATX pro forma balance sheet. The amount capitalized represents the purchase price of railcars and locomotives and associated transaction costs, excluding net working capital.
(c) Adjustment to eliminate historical assets and liabilities in the Wells Fargo Rail combined financial statements that are not included in the Transaction. These adjustments include cash, restricted cash, debt to parent, deferred income taxes, and certain immaterial accruals and other net working capital items.
(d) Adjustment to eliminate the historical equity of Wells Fargo Rail, and adjustment to the equity of GABX for the cash contributions of GATX and Brookfield to the joint venture, and corresponding eliminations under GATX consolidation.
(e) Adjustment to report Brookfield’s noncontrolling interest in GABX on the GATX pro forma balance sheet. Brookfield’s noncontrolling interest represents its equity in the joint venture and is equal to 70% of the purchase price of railcars acquired by GABX, as presented above, minus debt financing.
(f) Adjustment for the capitalization of transaction costs incurred and estimated to be incurred through June 30, 2025. Total transaction costs are estimated to be $24.0 million.
Transaction adjustments include the following adjustments related to the pro forma statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and for the year ended December 31, 2024:
(g) Adjustment for depreciation of estimated capitalized transaction costs of $24.0 million, assuming the Transaction has occurred on January 1, 2024.
(h) Adjustment to eliminate the goodwill impairment recorded by Wells Fargo Rail in the six months ended June 30, 2025.
(i) Adjustments to reflect the tax impact of the finance lease adjustments, debt financing adjustments and transaction adjustments to the pro forma statements of income at the statutory federal tax rate of 21%.
(j) Adjustment to report Brookfield’s noncontrolling interest in GABX on the GATX pro forma statements of income. Brookfield’s noncontrolling interest represents its 70% ownership share of GABX’s net income.
(k) The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share calculations are based on the weighted average basic and diluted shares of GATX. The following table summarizes the computation of earnings per share presented in the pro forma statements of income (in millions, except per share amounts):
