JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – January 25, 2023 – CSX Corp. (NASDAQ: CSX) today announced fourth quarter 2022 operating income of $1.46 billion compared to $1.37 billion in fourth quarter 2021. Net earnings of $1.02 billion, or $0.49 per share, compared to $934 million, or $0.42 per share, in the same period last year.

For the full year 2022, CSX operating income of $6.0 billion was up 8% from the previous year and included $144 million in gains from property sales recognized from the 2021 agreement with the Commonwealth of Virginia. Full year 2021 operating income included $349 million in gains from this same transaction. Net earnings for the year of $4.17 billion, or $1.95 per share, compared to $3.78 billion, or $1.68 per share, in 2021.

“The ONE CSX team made great progress this quarter, delivering strong earnings as our network performance continued to gain momentum,” said Joe Hinrichs, president and chief executive officer. “With the right resources now coming into place, we can turn our full attention to the opportunities ahead in 2023 and beyond. Going into the new year, our entire company remains focused on providing exceptional customer service that will enable us to win share from trucks and drive profitable growth over the long term.”

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

a)Acquisition of Pan Am Systems, Inc.: On June 1, 2022, CSX completed its acquisition of Pan Am Systems, Inc. (“Pan Am”) which is the parent company of Pan Am Railways, Inc. who jointly owns Pan Am Southern, LLC with a subsidiary of Norfolk Southern Corporation. The closing price of $600 million was funded through a combination of stock valued at $422 million and cash totaling $178 million, subject to certain customary purchase price adjustments. The results of Pan Am's operations and its cash flows were consolidated prospectively beginning June 1, 2022, and are included in the information presented herein unless otherwise noted.

Acquisition of Quality Carriers, Inc.: On July 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Quality Carriers, the largest provider of bulk liquid chemicals transportation in North America, for $541 million in cash, net of $3 million in cash acquired. The results of Quality Carriers' operations and its cash flows were consolidated prospectively beginning July 1, 2021.

b)Sale of Property Rights to the Commonwealth of Virginia: On March 26, 2021, the Company entered into a comprehensive agreement to sell certain property rights in three CSX-owned line segments to the Commonwealth of Virginia (“Commonwealth”) over three phases for a total of $525 million. The timing and amount of gains recognized were based on the allocation of fair value to each conveyance, the timing of future conveyances and collectability. In April 2021, upon closing of the first phase of the agreement, the Company collected $200 million in proceeds and recognized a $349 million gain. In fourth quarter 2021, the Company collected additional proceeds of $200 million, a portion of which was attributable to the first phase with the remainder attributable to the second phase. The second phase closed in January 2022, which resulted in a $20 million gain in first quarter 2022. During June 2022, the final $125 million of proceeds was approved by the Commonwealth, which resulted in a $122 million gain in second quarter 2022 related to property rights previously conveyed. The remaining proceeds of $125 million were collected during fourth quarter 2022 upon closing of the third phase, resulting in a $2 million gain. Over the course of this transaction, which is now complete, total proceeds of $525 million were collected and total gains of $493 million were recognized.

Gains and proceeds in 2022 and 2021 related to this transaction are summarized in the following table.

CSX Corporation

VOLUME AND REVENUE

Total revenue increased 9% in fourth quarter 2022 when compared to fourth quarter 2021 due to higher fuel recovery, pricing gains, increases in other revenue and increases in trucking revenue.

Fuel Surcharge

Fuel surcharge revenue is included in the individual markets. Fuel lag is the estimated difference between highway diesel prices in the quarter and the prices used for fuel surcharge, which are generally on a two-month lag.

Fuel Lag (Expense)/ Benefit	$	4	$	(17)	$	(57)	$	(61)

(a) Fuel surcharge revenue does not include amounts for trucking.

Merchandise Volume

Chemicals - Decreased due to lower shipments of plastics, industrial chemicals and waste, partially offset by higher shipments of energy-related commodities including crude oil.

Agricultural and Food Products - Decreased as a result of lower shipments of wheat, ethanol, and food and consumer products, partially offset by higher shipments of feed grain.

Automotive - Increased due to higher North American vehicle production as semiconductor availability has improved.

Minerals - Increased due to higher shipments of aggregates driven by construction demand.

Forest Products - Decreased due to lower shipments of pulpboard.

Metals and Equipment - Decreased primarily due to lower steel shipments, partially offset by higher levels of equipment moves.

Fertilizers - Decreased due to declines in short-haul shipments, due in part to weather impacts at Florida production sites, as well as declines in long-haul phosphate shipments.

Intermodal Volume

International shipments declined due to lower imports. Lower domestic shipments were primarily due to more subdued seasonal demand than prior year, including a softening truck market.

Coal Volume

Export coal increased due to higher shipments of metallurgical coal. Domestic coal increased primarily due to higher shipments of utility coal including the benefit of replenishing stockpiles.

Total Coal	21.0	19.0	11	%	78.1	79.0	(1)	%

Trucking Revenue

Trucking revenue increased $16 million versus prior year primarily due to higher fuel surcharge.

Other Revenue

Other revenue was $25 million higher due to lower revenue reserves, increases in demurrage and higher affiliate revenue, partially offset by charges for lower intermodal storage and equipment usage.

CSX Corporation

EXPENSE

Expenses of $2.3 billion increased $210 million, or 10%, in fourth quarter 2022 when compared to fourth quarter 2021.

Labor and Fringe expense increased $23 million due to the following:

•Inflation drove $42 million of increased cost, which was primarily due to wage rate increases from the new union agreements. Trucking labor inflation drove $6 million of the increase.

•Incentive compensation costs decreased $23 million primarily due to the impact of accelerated expense for eligible employees in the prior year.

•Other costs increased $4 million as expenses due to additional train and engine employees and Pan Am impacts were mostly offset by other savings.

Purchased Services and Other expense increased $54 million due to the following:

•Operating support costs were $33 million higher primarily as a result of inflation, elevated intermodal terminal costs and other items, partially offset by lower volume.

•Other costs increased $21 million due to several non-significant items, including Pan Am's operations as well as write-offs of both obsolete inventory and a technology project.

Fuel expense increased $129 million primarily resulting from a 46% increase in locomotive fuel prices and higher prices for non-locomotive fuel.

Depreciation expense increased $33 million primarily due to the impacts of a 2022 equipment depreciation study as well as a larger asset base.

Equipment and Other Rents increased $2 million driven by inflation that was mostly offset by lower volume and other savings.

Gains on Property Dispositions increased to $55 million in 2022 from $24 million in 2021.

CSX Corporation

Certain operating statistics are estimated and can continue to be updated as actuals settle. The methodology for calculating train velocity, dwell, cars online and trip plan performance differs from that used by the Surface Transportation Board. The Company will continue to report these metrics to the Surface Transportation Board using the prescribed methodology.

Key Performance Measures Definitions

Train Velocity - Average train speed between origin and destination in miles per hour (does not include locals, yard jobs, work trains or passenger trains). Train velocity measures the profiled schedule of trains (from departure to arrival and all interim time), and train profiles are periodically updated to align with a changing operation.

Dwell - Average amount of time in hours between car arrival to and departure from the yard.

Cars Online - Average number of active freight rail cars on lines operated by CSX, excluding rail cars that are being repaired, in storage, those that have been sold, or private cars dwelling at a customer location more than one day.

On-Time Originations - Percent of scheduled road trains that depart the origin yard on-time or ahead of schedule.

On-Time Arrivals - Percent of scheduled road trains that arrive at the destination yard on-time to within two hours of scheduled arrival.

Carload Trip Plan Performance - Percent of measured cars destined for a customer that arrive at or ahead of the original estimated time of arrival, notification or interchange (as applicable).

Intermodal Trip Plan Performance - Percent of measured containers destined for a customer that arrive at or ahead of the original estimated time of arrival, notification or interchange (as applicable).

Fuel Efficiency - Gallons of locomotive fuel per 1,000 gross ton-miles.

Revenue Ton-Miles (RTM's) - The movement of one revenue-producing ton of freight over a distance of one mile.

Gross Ton-Miles (GTM's) - The movement of one ton of train weight over one mile. GTM's are calculated by multiplying total train weight by distance the train moved. Total train weight is comprised of the weight of the freight cars and their contents.

FRA Personal Injury Frequency Index - Number of FRA-reportable injuries per 200,000 man-hours.

FRA Train Accident Rate - Number of FRA-reportable train accidents per million train-miles.

CSX Corporation

NON-GAAP MEASURES (Unaudited)

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The Company also uses certain non-GAAP measures that fall within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G and Regulation S-K Item 10(e), which may provide users of the financial information with additional meaningful comparison to prior reported results. Non-GAAP measures do not have standardized definitions and are not defined by U.S. GAAP. Therefore, the Company’s non-GAAP measures are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or as superior to the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to corresponding GAAP measures are below.

Free Cash Flow

Management believes that free cash flow is supplemental information useful to investors as it is important in evaluating the Company’s financial performance. More specifically, free cash flow measures cash generated by the business after reinvestment. This measure represents cash available for both equity and bond investors to be used for dividends, share repurchases or principal reduction on outstanding debt. Free cash flow is calculated by using net cash from operations and adjusting for property additions and proceeds and advances from property dispositions. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than a substitute for, cash provided by operating activities. The following table reconciles cash provided by operating activities (GAAP measure) to free cash flow, before dividends (non-GAAP measure).


	Years Ended
(Dollars in millions)	Dec. 31, 2022		Dec. 31, 2021
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	$	5,619	$	5,099
Property Additions	(2,133)		(1,791)
Proceeds and Advances from Property Dispositions	246		529
Other Investing Activities (a)	n/a		(4)
Free Cash Flow (before payment of dividends)	$	3,732	$	3,833

(a) Effective first quarter 2022, the results of other investing activities will no longer be included in free cash flow. Prior year has not been restated as the change is immaterial.
