NOTE 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies
Background
CSX Corporation (“CSX”), and together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), based in Jacksonville, Florida, is one of the nation's leading transportation suppliers. The Company provides rail-based transportation services including traditional rail service and the transport of intermodal containers and trailers.
CSX’s principal operating subsidiary, CSX Transportation, Inc. (“CSXT”), provides an important link to the transportation supply chain through its approximately 21,000 route mile rail network, which serves major population centers in 23 states east of the Mississippi River, the District of Columbia and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
Other entities
In addition to CSXT, the Company’s subsidiaries include CSX Intermodal, Total Distribution Services, Inc. (“TDSI”), Transflo Terminal Services, Inc. (“Transflo”), CSX Technology, Inc. (“CSX Technology”) and other subsidiaries. Intermodal provides transportation services linking customers to railroads via trucks and terminals. TDSI serves the automotive industry with distribution centers and storage locations, while Transflo provides logistical solutions for transferring products from rail to trucks. CSX Technology and other subsidiaries provide support services for the Company.
CSX’s other holdings include CSX Real Property, Inc., a subsidiary responsible for the Company’s real estate sales, leasing, acquisition and management and development activities. These activities are classified in other income – net because they are not considered by the Company to be operating activities. Results of these activities fluctuate with the timing of non-operating real estate transactions.
Beginning in the second quarter of 2010, the Company is no longer reflecting the intermodal business as a separate segment. This change is a result of the strategic business review and change in CSX’s intermodal service associated with the start of the UMAX program as well as certain management realignments. The UMAX program, which began this quarter, is a domestic interline container program. CSX’s chairman now views intermodal similarly to merchandise and coal. Also, Inland Transportation expense has been reclassified to Materials, Supplies and Other. Intermodal revenue will continue to be viewed as a separate revenue group; however, a separate income statement and operating ratio will no longer be provided and business segment disclosures are no longer required. All prior periods have been revised to reflect this change.

Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all normal, recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the following:
· | Consolidated income statements for the quarters and six months ended June 25, 2010 and June 26, 2009; |
· | Consolidated balance sheets at June 25, 2010 and December 25, 2009; and |
· | Consolidated cash flow statements for the six months ended June 25, 2010 and June 26, 2009. |
Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been omitted from these interim financial statements. CSX suggests that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes included in CSX's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any Current Reports on Form 8-K.
Fiscal Year
CSX follows a 52/53 week fiscal reporting calendar with the last day of each reporting period ending on a Friday:
· | The second fiscal quarter of 2010 and 2009 consisted of 13 weeks ending on June 25, 2010 and June 26, 2009, respectively. |
· | The six month periods of 2010 and 2009 consisted of 26 weeks ending on June 25, 2010 and June 26, 2009, respectively. |
· | Fiscal year 2009 consisted of 52 weeks ending on December 25, 2009. |
· | Please note that fiscal year 2010 consists of 53 weeks ending on December 31, 2010. Therefore, fourth quarter 2010 will consist of 14 weeks. |
Except as otherwise specified, references to “second quarter(s)” or “six months” indicate CSX’s fiscal periods ending June 25, 2010 and June 26, 2009, and references to year-end indicate the fiscal year ended December 25, 2009.

Comprehensive Earnings
CSX reports comprehensive earnings or loss in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholders' Equity. Total comprehensive earnings are defined as all changes in shareholders' equity during a period, other than those resulting from investments by and distributions to shareholders (e.g., issuance of equity securities and dividends). Generally, for CSX, total comprehensive earnings equals net earnings plus or minus certain reclassifications for pension and other post-retirement liabilities. Total comprehensive earnings represent the activity for a period net of related tax effects and were $424 million and $311 million for second quarters 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $741 million and $556 million for six months 2010 and 2009, respectively.
While total comprehensive earnings is the activity in a period and is largely driven by net earnings in that period, accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (“AOCI”) represents the cumulative balance of other comprehensive income, net of tax, as of the balance sheet date. For CSX, AOCI is primarily the cumulative balance related to pension and other post-retirement reclassifications. Overall equity was reduced by $787 million and $809 million as of June 2010 and December 2009, respectively, primarily as a result of normal quarterly pension reclassifications. In general, for CSX, AOCI is not materially impacted by other items.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts on uncollectible amounts related to freight receivables, public project receivables (work done by the Company on behalf of a government agency), claims for damages and other various receivables. The allowance is based upon the credit worthiness of customers, historical experience, the age of the receivable and current market and economic conditions. Uncollectible amounts are charged against the allowance account. Allowance for doubtful accounts of $43 million and $47 million is included in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 2010 and December 2009, respectively.
Capital Expenditures
Property additions, which are classified as investing activities on the consolidated cash flow statements, consisted of $687 million and $657 million for second quarters 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total capital expenditures for 2009 included purchases of new assets using seller financing of approximately $160 million, for which payments are included in other financing activities on the consolidated cash flow statements. There were no purchases of new assets using seller financing agreements during second quarter 2010. The Company plans to spend $1.7 billion for total capital expenditures in 2010.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Policy
Change in Accounting Principle
Effective in the second quarter of 2010, CSX changed the accounting policy for rail grinding costs from a capitalization method, under which the cost of rail grinding was capitalized and then depreciated, to a direct expense method, under which rail grinding costs are expensed as incurred. This represents a change from an acceptable method under GAAP to a preferable method, and is consistent with recent changes in industry practice.
The direct expense method eliminates the subjectivity in determining the period of benefit over which to depreciate the capitalized costs associated with rail grinding. The application of the change in accounting principle is presented retrospectively to all periods presented.
The balance sheet effects of the adjustments through the beginning of fiscal year 2009 resulted in a decrease in net properties, deferred income taxes, and shareholders’ equity by $134 million, $51 million, and $83 million, respectively. The effect of this change is not material to the financial condition, results of operations or liquidity for any of the periods presented.

Retained Earnings
During second quarter 2010, CSX's other capital balance was reduced to zero as a result of share repurchases. In accordance with the Equity Topic in the ASC, other capital cannot be negative. Therefore, a reclassification of $540 million was made between retained earnings and other capital to bring the other capital balance to zero. Generally, retained earnings is only impacted by net earnings and dividends.
Property Transaction
During the second quarter of 2010, the Company closed an operating property transaction with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Company received $50 million of cash related to this transaction and recorded a net book loss of $30 million pre-tax or $0.05 per share. This property is a former Conrail acquired property. This loss is reflected in materials, supplies and other.

This is offset by shares CSX could repurchase using the proceeds from these hypothetical exercises to obtain the common stock equivalent. This number is different from outstanding stock options, which is included in Note 3, Share-Based Compensation. All stock options were dilutive for the periods presented; therefore, no stock options were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. |

NOTE 2. Earnings Per Share, continued
Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Earnings per share, assuming dilution, is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the effects of common stock that may be issued as a result of the following types of potentially dilutive instruments:
· | convertible debt; |
· | employee stock options; and |
· | other equity awards, which include long-term incentive awards. |
The Earnings Per Share Topic in the ASC requires CSX to include additional shares in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution. The additional shares included in diluted earnings per share represents the number of shares that would be issued if all of the above potentially dilutive instruments were converted into CSX common stock.
As a result, diluted shares outstanding are not impacted when debentures are converted into CSX common stock because those shares were already included in the diluted shares calculation. Shares outstanding for basic earnings per share, however, are impacted on a weighted-average basis when conversions occur. During second quarter 2010, $200,000 of face value of convertible debentures were converted into 7,000 shares of CSX common stock. There were no conversions of convertible debentures during second quarter 2009. As of June 2010, approximately $28 million of convertible debentures at face value remained outstanding, which are convertible into approximately 1 million shares of CSX common stock.
CSX share-based compensation plans primarily include performance grants, restricted stock awards, stock options and stock plans for directors. CSX has not granted stock options since 2003. Awards granted under the various plans are determined and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors or, in certain circumstances, by the Chief Executive Officer for awards to management employees other than senior executives. The Board of Directors approves awards granted to the Company’s non-management directors upon recommendation of the Governance Committee of the Board of Directors.

NOTE 3. Share-Based Compensation, continued
On May 4, 2010, 402,000 target performance units were granted to key members of management under a new long-term incentive plan adopted under the CSX Omnibus Incentive Plan. This plan provides for a three-year cycle ending in fiscal year 2012. Similar to the two existing plans, the financial target upon which payments are based is operating ratio, which is defined as operating expenses divided by operating revenue and is calculated excluding certain non-recurring items. Target grants were made in performance units, with each unit being equivalent to one share of CSX common stock, and payouts will be made in CSX common stock. The payout range for participants will be between 0% and 200% of the original target grant based upon CSX’s attainments of pre-established operating ratio targets for fiscal year 2012. Payouts to certain senior executive officers are subject to a reduction of up to 30% at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors based upon Company performance against certain CSX strategic initiatives.
As part of this plan, 134,000 time-based restricted stock units were granted to key members of management. The restricted stock units vest three years after the date of grant and participants receive cash dividend equivalents on the unvested shares during the restriction period. These awards are not based upon CSX’s attainment of operational targets.
For information related to the Company’s other outstanding long-term incentive plans, see CSX’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K.

Considering the legal defenses available, the liabilities that have been recorded and other factors, it is the opinion of management that none of these items, when finally resolved, will have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Should a number of these items occur in the same period, however, they could have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity in that particular period.

NOTE 4. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, continued
During the second quarter of 2010, the Company reduced casualty reserves by a net $9 million, most of which is related to the reduction in CSXT personal injury reserves of $13 million as noted below.
During the second quarter of 2009, the Company reduced casualty reserves by a net $85 million, or $0.22 per share. The majority of this reduction is related to personal injury and asbestos and is described below. Also included in the net reduction is a write-off of $11 million of reinsurance receivables (expected receivables from outside insurance companies). This receivable write-off is not included in the reserve amounts disclosed above.
Casualty
Casualty reserves represent accruals for personal injury and occupational injury claims. During the quarter the Company increased its self-insured retention amount for these claims from $25 million to $50 million per injury for claims occurring on or after June 1, 2010. Currently, no individual claim is expected to exceed the self-insured retention amount. In accordance with the Contingencies Topic in the ASC, to the extent the value of an individual claim exceeds the self-insured retention amount, the Company would present the liability on a gross basis with a corresponding receivable for insurance recoveries. These reserves fluctuate based upon the timing of payments as well as changes in independent third-party estimates, which are reviewed by management. The claims relate to CSXT unless otherwise noted below. Defense and processing costs, which historically have been insignificant and are anticipated to be insignificant in the future, are not included in the recorded liabilities.
Personal injury reserves represent liabilities for employee work-related and third-party injuries. Work-related injuries for CSXT employees are primarily subject to the Federal Employers’ Liability Act (“FELA”). In addition to FELA liabilities, employees of other CSX subsidiaries or former subsidiaries are covered by various state workers’ compensation laws, the Federal Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Program or the Maritime Jones Act.
CSXT retains an independent actuarial firm to assist management in assessing the value of personal injury claims and cases. An analysis is performed by the independent actuarial firm semi-annually and is reviewed by management. The methodology used by the actuary includes a development factor to reflect growth or reduction in the value of these personal injury claims. It is based largely on CSXT’s historical claims and settlement experience. Actual results may vary from estimates due to the number, type and severity of the injury, costs of medical treatments and uncertainties in litigation.

NOTE 4. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, continued
During second quarters of 2010 and 2009, the Company reduced personal injury reserves by $13 million and $78 million, respectively, based on management’s review of the actuarial analysis performed by an independent actuarial firm. These reductions are a direct result of the Company’s improvement in safety. Claims have shown a continued downward trend in the number of injuries, resulting in a continual reduction of the Company’s FRA personal injury frequency index. Additionally, the trend in the severity of injuries has significantly declined.
Occupational claims arise from allegations of exposure to certain materials in the workplace, such as asbestos, solvents (which include soaps and chemicals) and diesel fuels or allegations of chronic physical injuries resulting from work conditions, such as repetitive stress injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome and hearing loss.
An analysis of occupational claims is performed semi-annually by an independent third party and reviewed by management. The methodology used includes estimates of future anticipated incurred but not reported claims based on the Company’s trends in average historical claim filing rates, future anticipated dismissal rates and future settlement rates. Actual claims may vary from these estimates due to the number, type and severity of the injury, costs of medical treatments and uncertainties in litigation.
During second quarter 2009, the Company reduced its asbestos reserves by $18 million. This reserve reduction is related to approximately 1,500 claims that were deemed to have no medical merit and, therefore, have been determined to have no value. Asbestos reserves were not adjusted during 2010 as a result of the semi-annual review by the independent third party.
Separation
Separation liabilities represent the estimated benefits provided to certain union employees as a result of implementing workforce reductions, improvements in productivity and certain other cost reductions at the Company's major transportation units since 1991. These liabilities are expected to be paid out over the next 10 to 15 years from general corporate funds and may fluctuate depending on the timing of payments and associated taxes.

Environmental
The Company is a party to various proceedings related to environmental issues, including administrative and judicial proceedings, involving private parties and regulatory agencies. The Company has been identified as a potentially responsible party at approximately 255 environmentally impaired sites. Many of these are, or may be, subject to remedial action under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, or CERCLA, also known as the Superfund Law, or similar state statutes. Most of these proceedings arose from environmental conditions on properties used for ongoing or discontinued railroad operations. A number of these proceedings, however, are based on allegations that the Company, or its predecessors, sent hazardous substances to facilities owned or operated by others for treatment or disposal. In addition, some of the Company’s land holdings were leased to others for commercial or industrial uses that may have resulted in releases of hazardous substances or other regulated materials onto the property and could give rise to proceedings against the Company.
In any such proceedings, the Company is subject to environmental clean-up and enforcement actions under the Superfund Law, as well as similar state laws that may impose joint and several liability for clean-up and enforcement costs on current and former owners and operators of a site without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct. These costs could be substantial.
In accordance with the Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations Topic in the ASC, the Company reviews its role with respect to each site identified at least quarterly, giving consideration to a number of factors such as:
· | the type of clean-up required; |
· | the nature of the Company’s alleged connection to the location (e.g., generator of waste sent to the site or owner or operator of the site); |
· | the extent of the Company’s alleged connection (e.g., volume of waste sent to the location and other relevant factors); and |
· | the number, connection and financial viability of other named and unnamed potentially responsible parties at the location. |

Based on the review process, the Company has recorded amounts to cover anticipated contingent future environmental remediation costs with respect to each site to the extent such costs are estimable and probable. The recorded liabilities for estimated future environmental costs are undiscounted. The liability includes future costs for remediation and restoration of sites as well as any significant ongoing monitoring costs, but excludes any anticipated insurance recoveries. Payments related to these liabilities are expected to be made over the next several years. Environmental remediation costs are included in materials, supplies and other on the consolidated income statement.
Currently, the Company does not possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of additional liabilities, if any, related to some sites, and will not possess such information until completion of future environmental studies. In addition, conditions that are currently unknown could, at any given location, result in liabilities, the amount and materiality of which cannot presently be reliably estimated. Based upon information currently available, however, the Company believes its environmental reserves are adequate to fund remedial actions to comply with present laws and regulations, and that the ultimate liability for these matters, if any, will not materially affect its overall financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Other
Other reserves include liabilities for various claims, such as longshoremen disability claims primarily associated with former subsidiaries’ activities, freight claims and claims for property, automobile and general liability. These liabilities are accrued at the estimable and probable amount in accordance with the Contingencies Topic in the ASC.
Insurance
The Company maintains numerous insurance programs with substantial limits for third-party casualty liability and Company property damage and business interruption. A certain amount of risk is retained by the Company on each of the casualty and property programs. For the first event in any given year, the Company has a $25 million deductible for non-catastrophic property programs and a $50 million deductible for casualty and catastrophic property programs.
While the Company’s current insurance coverage is adequate to cover its damages, future claims could exceed existing insurance coverage or insurance may not continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates.

Guarantees
As of June 2010, the Company was no longer liable for the guarantee related to CSX Energy. Additionally, the guarantee for A.P. Moller-Maersk is currently less than $1 million.
Legal Proceedings
There were no material developments during the quarter concerning the fuel surcharge antitrust litigation or the Seminole Electric Cooperative, Inc. rate case. For further details, see Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies, in CSX’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In addition to the matters referenced above, the Company is involved in litigation incidental to its business and is a party to a number of legal actions and claims, various governmental proceedings and private civil lawsuits, including, but not limited to, those related to environmental matters, FELA claims by employees, other personal injury claims and disputes and complaints involving certain transportation rates and charges. Some of the legal proceedings include claims for compensatory as well as punitive damages and others are, or are purported to be, class actions. While the final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering, among other things, the legal defenses available and liabilities that have been recorded along with applicable insurance, it is currently the opinion of CSX management that none of these items will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. An unexpected adverse resolution of one or more of these items, however, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity in a particular quarter or fiscal year.
The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans principally for salaried, management personnel. The plans provide eligible employees with retirement benefits based predominantly on years of service and compensation rates near retirement. For employees hired after December 31, 2002, benefits are determined based on a cash balance formula, which provides benefits by utilizing interest and pays credits based upon age, service and compensation.
In addition to these plans, the Company sponsors a post-retirement medical plan and a life insurance plan that provide benefits to full-time, salaried, management employees hired on or before December 31, 2002 upon their retirement if certain eligibility requirements are met. The post-retirement medical plan is contributory (partially funded by retirees), with retiree contributions adjusted annually. The life insurance plan is non-contributory.
The Company engages independent, external actuaries to compute the amounts of liabilities and expenses relating to these plans subject to the assumptions that the Company selects. These amounts are reviewed by management. The following table describes the components of expense/(income) related to net periodic benefit cost:

Debt Exchange
On March 24, 2010, CSX exchanged $660 million of notes of multiple series (the “Existing Notes”), bearing interest at an average annual rate of 7.74% with maturities ranging from 2017 to 2038. These Existing Notes were exchanged for $660 million of debt securities (the “New Notes”) bearing interest at an average annual rate of 6.22% and due April 30, 2040. In addition, CSX paid approximately $141 million to the debtholders as cash consideration. CSX also paid the debtholders any accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Notes. In accordance with the Debt Topic in the ASC, this transaction has been accounted for as a debt exchange. As such, the $141 million of cash consideration paid to the debtholders is included in other long-term assets. This cash consideration and the unamortized discount and issue costs from the Existing Notes will be amortized as an adjustment of interest expense over the term of the New Notes. There was no gain or loss recognized as a result of this exchange. However, all costs related to the debt exchange and due to parties other than the debtholders were included in interest expense during first quarter 2010. These costs totaled approximately $3 million. There were no additional costs incurred during second quarter 2010.
In June 2010, CSX offered to exchange the New Notes for substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the exchange offer. This offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. eastern standard time on July 15, 2010, unless otherwise extended.
For fair value information related to the Company’s long-term debt, see Note 11, Fair Value Measurements.
Revolving Credit Facility
CSX has a $1.25 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks. The facility allows borrowings at floating rates based on the London interbank offered rate ("LIBOR"), plus a spread, depending upon CSX’s senior unsecured debt ratings. The facility requires CSX to maintain a ratio of total debt to total capitalization below a prescribed limit. The facility does not require CSX to post collateral under any circumstances. As of June 2010, this facility was not drawn on, and CSX was in compliance with all covenant requirements under the facility. This facility expires in 2012.

Receivables Securitization Facility
On June 16, 2010, the Company renewed its $250 million receivables securitization facility. The purpose of this facility is to provide an alternative to commercial paper and a low cost source of short-term liquidity. This facility has a 364-day term and expires on June 15, 2011. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not drawn on this facility. Under the terms of this facility, CSX Transportation and CSX Intermodal transferred eligible third-party receivables to CSX Trade Receivables, a bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary. A separate subsidiary of CSX will service the receivables. Upon transfer, the receivables become assets of CSX Trade Receivables and are not available to the creditors of CSX or any of its other subsidiaries. In the event CSX Trade Receivables draws under this facility, the Company will record an equivalent amount of debt on its consolidated financial statements.

During the second quarter of 2010, the Joint Committee of Taxation, which is a committee of the United States Congress, approved the refund related to the resolution of the 2004 – 2006 federal income tax audit. The final issue for this audit cycle related to a dispute over the value of the donation of appreciated property. As a result of this resolution, the Company recorded a tax and interest benefit of $19 million. Additionally, there were other tax expense items that partially offset this resulting in a net benefit of $15 million or $0.04 per share in the second quarter of 2010. In addition, the Company has reduced gross unrecognized tax benefits by $32 million. As of June 2010 and December 2009, the Company had approximately $25 million and $50 million, respectively, of total unrecognized tax benefits. Of these total unrecognized tax benefits and after consideration of the impact of federal tax benefits, as of June 2010 and December 2009, $17 million and $41 million, respectively, could favorably affect the effective income tax rate.

In the second quarter of 2009, CSX sold the stock of a subsidiary that indirectly owned Greenbrier Hotel Corporation (“The Greenbrier”) to Justice Family Group, LLC for approximately $21 million in cash. CSX recognized a gain on the sale of $25 million which includes a tax benefit of $3 million. In addition, the Greenbrier incurred $2 million of losses from operations in the second quarter of 2009.
Previously, all amounts associated with the operations of The Greenbrier were included in other income – net. All prior periods have been reclassified to reflect discontinued operations. The Greenbrier had revenue of $26 million and $33 million and pre-tax income, including the gain on sale, of $17 million and $5 million during second quarter and six months 2009 through the date of sale, respectively. There was no activity in 2010.
NOTE 11. Fair Value Measurements
The Financial Instruments Topic in the ASC requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in annual reports as well as in quarterly reports. For CSX, this statement applies to certain investments and long-term debt. In addition, disclosure of the fair value of pension plan assets is only required annually.
Various inputs are considered when determining the value of the Company’s investments, pension plan assets and long-term debt. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
· | Level 1 – observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets |
· | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.) |
· | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The valuation methods described below may produce a fair value calculation that is not indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

NOTE 11. Fair Value Measurements, continued
Investments
The Company’s investment assets consist primarily of corporate bonds and are carried at fair value, as determined with the assistance of a third party trustee, on the consolidated balance sheet per the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic in the ASC. Level 2 inputs were used to determine fair value of the Company’s investment assets. The fair value and amortized cost of these bonds are as follows:
(Dollars in Millions) | June 2010 | December 2009 | |||
Fair Value | $ | 91 | $96 | ||
Amortized Cost | $ | 87 | $91 |
Long-term Debt
Long-term debt is reported at carrying amount on the consolidated balance sheet and is the Company’s only financial instrument with fair values significantly different from its carrying amounts. The majority of the Company’s long-term debt is valued with the assistance of an independent third party. For those instruments not valued with the assistance of a third party, the fair value has been estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based upon the yields provided by the same independent third party. All inputs used to determine the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt qualify as level 2 inputs.
The fair value of outstanding debt fluctuates with changes in a number of factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to, interest rates, market conditions, the value of similar financial instruments, size of the transaction, cash flow projections and comparable trades. Fair value will exceed carrying value when the current market interest rate is lower than the interest rate at which the debt was originally issued. The fair value of a company’s debt is a measure of its current value under present market conditions. It does not impact the financial statements under current accounting rules. The carrying value of a company’s debt fluctuates with payments and/or new debt issuances. The fair value and carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt are as follows:
(Dollars in Millions) | June 2010 | December 2009 | |||
Long-term Debt Including Current Maturities: | |||||
Fair Value | $ | 8,993 | $8,780 | ||
Carrying Value | $ | 7,934 | $8,008 |

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
STRATEGIC OVERVIEW
CSX and the rail industry provide customers with access to an expansive and interconnected transportation network that plays a key role in North American commerce. CSX’s network is positioned to reach more than two-thirds of Americans, who account for about three-quarters of the nation’s consumption of goods. Through this network, the Company transports a broad portfolio of products, ranging from coal and new energy sources, like biodiesel and ethanol, to automobiles, chemicals, military equipment and consumer products.
In 2010, CSX expects to deliver strong double-digit earnings per share growth. This expectation is supported by strong volume and revenue growth, including export coal shipments of about 30 million tons this year, and strong operating ratio improvement as well. Our expectations are based on continued, gradual economic growth and can be impacted by the strength and sustainability of the economic recovery.
Additionally, the Company continues to invest in its network to further enhance safety and improve service and reliability for its customers. The Company plans to spend $1.7 billion for total capital expenditures in 2010. To continue these investments adequately, the Company must be able to operate in an environment in which it can generate adequate returns and drive shareholder value. CSX will continue to advocate for a fair and balanced regulatory environment to ensure that the value of the Company’s rail service will be reflected in new legislation and policy.
As an example of the Company’s commitment to investing in its network and improving the flow of freight, the Company launched the National Gateway, a multi-year public-private infrastructure initiative which will significantly improve the efficiency of the freight network between the Mid-Atlantic ports and the Midwest. Total project costs are approximately $850 million, of which CSX expects to contribute approximately $400 million. A portion of the public funds needed to complete the National Gateway has been secured and CSX is working with its state partners to apply for the additional funding needed to complete the project. When completed, the National Gateway is expected to reduce truck traffic and increase intermodal capacity on key corridors without increasing the number of trains. As a result, the Company’s customers will benefit from improved service and reliability, reduced transport times and expanded access to rail services, and substantial public benefits will be realized as well.
In 2008, Congress enacted the Rail Safety Improvement Act. The legislation includes a mandate that all Class I freight railroads implement Positive Train Control ("PTC") by December 31, 2015. PTC must be installed on all lines with passenger or commuter operations as well as all main lines with over 5 million annual gross tons which transport toxic-by-inhalation hazardous materials. Significant capital costs are anticipated with the implementation of PTC as well as ongoing operating expenses. Currently, CSX estimates that the total multi-year cost of PTC implementation will be at least $1.2 billion for the Company.

SECOND QUARTER 2010 HIGHLIGHTS
· | Revenue increased $478 million or 22% to $2.7 billion driven by increases in volume and core pricing gains. |

CSX second quarter results reflect strong year-over-year volume and revenue growth as compared to the level of economic activity last year. Revenue increased 22% from the prior year, to nearly $2.7 billion, with gains across most of the Company’s markets. These gains were driven by a 13% increase in volume, pricing gains, and higher fuel recovery associated with the increase in fuel prices.
While revenue increased 22%, expenses increased by $287 million, or 18%, versus the prior year. This increase was driven by a rise in fuel costs due to higher fuel prices, a lower year-over-year favorable adjustment in casualty reserves, an operating property transaction loss and higher labor-related costs.
Beginning in the second quarter of 2010, the Company is no longer reflecting the intermodal business as a separate segment. This change is a result of the strategic business review and change in CSX’s intermodal service associated with the start of the UMAX program as well as certain management realignments. The UMAX program, which began this quarter, is a domestic interline container program. CSX’s chairman now views intermodal similarly to merchandise and coal. Also, Inland Transportation expense has been reclassified to Materials, Supplies and Other. Intermodal revenue will continue to be viewed as a separate revenue group; however, a separate income statement and operating ratio will no longer be provided and business segment disclosures are no longer required. All prior periods have been revised to reflect this change.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In addition to the financial highlights described above, the Company measures and reports safety and service performance. The Company strives for continuous improvement in these measures through training, initiatives and investment. For example, the Company’s safety and train accident prevention programs rely on broad employee involvement. The programs utilize operating rules training, compliance measurement, root cause analysis and communication to create a safer environment for employees and the public. Continued capital investment in Company assets, including track, bridges, signals, equipment and detection technology also supports safety performance.
During second quarter 2010, the Company continued to advance its efforts on safety and operating performance. CSXT delivered the fifth consecutive quarterly year-over-year improvement in Federal Railroad Administration (“FRA”) personal injuries in second quarter 2010. The FRA personal injuries frequency index improved to 1.13, a 14% improvement over 2009. Reported FRA train accident frequency rate increased 7% to 2.78, but remained at relatively low historical levels.
Key service metrics in second quarter improved from first quarter levels, but were mixed compared to 2009. On-time train originations and arrivals both declined to 78% and 71%, respectively. Dwell time improved to 23.7 hours from 24.1 hours in same quarter of 2009. Average train velocity declined 4% to 20.9 miles per hour. The Company strives to sustain key operating measures and service reliability at high levels, while increasing operational efficiency.

Second Quarter 2010 Results of Operations
CSX second quarter results reflect strong year-over-year volume and revenue growth as compared to the level of economic activity last year. The greatest volume increases occurred in the automotive, metals and intermodal markets. Ongoing yield management initiative and higher fuel recovery associated with the increase in fuel prices drove revenue-per-unit increases in nearly all markets.
Revenue
Merchandise
Chemicals – Growth occurred across most chemical markets reflecting the overall improvement in demand for intermediate products used in the automotive and consumer goods markets.
Phosphates and Fertilizers – This market's growth was driven by increased export and domestic phosphate shipments as well as domestic movements of potash to meet the demand from a robust planting season.
Automotive – Strong volume growth was due to an increase in North American light vehicle production driven by higher sales and lower inventory levels.
Emerging Markets – Shipments of aggregates (which include crushed stone, sand and gravel) increased from depressed levels last year due to new business for the Company.
36
CSX CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Agricultural Products – Volume was relatively flat. Increased shipments of ethanol were mostly offset by weaker demand for feed ingredients, soybeans and other processed products.
Forest Products – Growth in building products increased from the depressed levels of 2009, due in part to tax incentives offered for new home purchases that ended during the quarter. Paper products continued to see long-term, gradual volume declines likely resulting from electronic media substitution.
Metals – Growth was driven by rebounding steel consumption consistent with the gradual economic recovery. Improved demand from automotive and energy markets, combined with low inventories and reduced imports pushed domestic steel production higher.
Food and Consumer – Volume was flat as increased shipments of refrigerated products and canned goods were offset by weakness in demand for appliances and alcoholic beverages.
Coal
Growth was driven by higher export shipments due to greater Asian demand for U.S. metallurgical coal, partially offset by lower shipments to utility customers as a result of continued high stockpile levels. The increase in revenue per unit was driven by improved yield and longer length of haul.
Intermodal
Revenue gains during the quarter were driven by volume growth. International volume increased due to new business and higher imports as a result of U.S. inventory replenishments. Domestic volume continued to grow with truckload conversions and expanded service offerings like the new UMAX program, which began this quarter. The revenue-per-unit decline was driven by the impact of switching from a purchased transportation arrangement to the new UMAX domestic interline program and was partly offset by increased fuel recovery and an improved pricing environment.
37
CSX CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Expenses increased $287 million from last year’s second quarter. Significant variances are described below.
Labor and Fringe expense increased $67 million. This increase was primarily driven by inflation and higher incentive compensation costs and a 1% increase in headcount.
Materials, Supplies and Other expense increased $107 million due to several items:
· | As safety trends have continued to improve, benefits were taken in both years’ second quarters - $9 million in 2010 and $85 million in the prior year quarter. This resulted in a year over year increase in expense of $76 million. |
· | An operating property transaction with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts closed in the quarter and resulted in a $30 million net book loss. |
· | Inland transportation expense reductions of $43 million related to the new UMAX agreement. |
· | Various other costs increased as a result of higher volume and other items. |
As additional information on the property transaction noted above, during the second quarter of 2010, the Company closed an operating property transaction with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Company received $50 million of cash related to this transaction and recorded a net book loss of $30 million pre-tax or $0.05 per share. This property is a former Conrail acquired property. This loss is reflected in materials, supplies and other.
Fuel expense increased $119 million primarily due to higher prices and higher volume.
Depreciation expense increased $3 million due to a larger asset base related to higher capital spending, partially offset by lower depreciation rates resulting from the previous periodic review of asset useful lives.
Equipment and Other Rents expense decreased $9 million primarily due to current quarter’s cost savings associated with improved asset utilization and lower lease expense, partially offset by volume-related increases.
Consolidated Results of Operations
Interest expense decreased $4 million to $135 million primarily due to lower average debt balances.
38
CSX CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Other Income - Net
Other income decreased $1 million to $9 million driven primarily by lower average cash and investment balances and a lower average rate of return.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense increased $62 million to $228 million due to higher earnings. The increase in earnings was slightly offset by a net favorable tax benefit of $15 million primarily due to the resolution of prior years’ income tax audit.
Net Earnings
Net earnings increased $109 million to $414 million and earnings per diluted share increased $0.30 to $1.07 primarily due to higher revenue partially offset by fuel, various other expenses, including labor and fringe and taxes.

Revenue increased $722 million to $5.2 billion as a result of volume increases associated with the gradual economic recovery, ongoing yield management initiatives and higher fuel recovery due to an increase in fuel prices.
Operating Income
Operating income increased $303 million to $1.4 billion primarily due to higher revenue partially offset by increased fuel and labor related costs.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $3 million to $277 million primarily due to lower average debt balances. This decrease was partially offset by expenses related to the first quarter 2010 debt exchange.
Other Income - Net
Other income increased $7 million to $20 million driven by higher income from real estate activities and other miscellaneous items.
40
CSX CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense increased $129 million to $424 million primarily due to higher earnings in 2010.
Net Earnings
Net earnings increased $169 million to $719 million and earnings per diluted share increased $0.45 to $1.84 primarily due to higher revenue partially offset by increased fuel and labor related costs as well as increased tax expense.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The following are material changes in the consolidated balance sheets and sources of liquidity and capital, which provide an update to the discussion included in CSX's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Material Changes in Consolidated Balance Sheets and Significant Cash Flows
Consolidated Balance Sheets
Other long-term assets increased $154 million primarily as a result of $141 million in cash consideration paid in the exchange of debt securities (see Note 7, Debt and Credit Agreements). Stockholder’s equity was reduced as a result of $823 million of share repurchases since December 2009.
Consolidated Cash Flow Statements
Cash provided by operating activities increased $451 million primarily due to higher pre-tax earnings and lower incentive compensation payouts in 2010. More cash was used for financing activities due to share repurhases of $823 million during 2010. Additionally, the Company received $500 million from a debt issuance in 2009. There have been no debt issuances in 2010.
As of the end of the second quarter, CSX had $633 million of cash and cash equivalents. CSX also has available a $1.25 billion credit facility with a diverse syndicate of banks that was not drawn on. CSX uses current cash balances for general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures, working capital requirements, improvements in productivity and repurchases of CSX common stock.
41
CSX CORPORATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On June 16, 2010, the Company renewed its $250 million receivables securitization facility. The purpose of this facility is to provide an alternative to commercial paper and a low cost source of short-term liquidity. This facility has a 364-day term and expires on June 15, 2011. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not drawn on this facility. Under the terms of this facility, CSX Transportation and CSX Intermodal transferred eligible third-party receivables to CSX Trade Receivables, a bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary. A separate subsidiary of CSX will service the receivables. Upon transfer, the receivables become assets of CSX Trade Receivables and are not available to the creditors of CSX or any of its other subsidiaries. In the event CSX Trade Receivables draws under this facility, the Company will record an equivalent amount of debt on its consolidated financial statements.
Working capital can also be considered a measure of a company’s ability to meet its short-term needs. CSX had a working capital deficit of $211 million as of June 2010 and a working capital surplus of $705 million as of December 2009. The decline since December 2009 is primarily due to a $508 million reclassification from long-term debt to current maturities of long-term debt for amounts due within the next twelve months.
The Company’s working capital balance varies due to factors such as the timing of scheduled debt payments and changes in cash and cash equivalent balances as discussed above. The Company continues to maintain adequate current assets to satisfy current liabilities and maturing obligations when they come due. Furthermore, CSX has sufficient financial capacity, including its revolving credit facility and shelf registration statement, to manage its day-to-day cash requirements and any anticipated obligations. The Company from time to time accesses the credit markets for additional liquidity.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires that management make estimates in reporting the amounts of certain assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions are discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors on a regular basis. Consistent with the prior year, significant estimates using management judgment are made for the following areas:
· casualty, environmental and legal reserves;
· pension and post-retirement medical plan accounting;
· depreciation policies for assets under the group-life method; and
· income taxes.
For further discussion of CSX’s critical accounting estimates, see the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
