NOTE 1. | Significant Accounting Policies, continued |
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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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, prior Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q 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 third fiscal quarters of 2007 and 2006 consisted of 13 weeks ending on September 28, 2007 and September 29, 2006, respectively. |
• | The nine month periods of 2007 and 2006 consisted of 39 weeks ending on September 28, 2007 and September 29, 2006, respectively. |
Except as otherwise specified, references to “third quarter(s)” or “nine months” indicate CSX’s fiscal periods ending September 28, 2007 or September 29, 2006, and comparisons are to the corresponding period of the prior year.
Other Items – Share Repurchases
Currently, CSX has the authority to purchase up to $3 billion of its outstanding common stock. CSX intends to complete the $3 billion repurchase program by the end of 2008. The timing, method, amount of repurchase transactions and the source of funds to effect any repurchase will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price and other factors. While it is not management’s intention, the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
Total share repurchases under all publicly announced plans was as follows:

(a) | In calculating diluted earnings per share, SFAS 128, Earnings per Share requires the Company to include the potential shares that would be outstanding if all outstanding stock options were exercised offset by shares the Company could repurchase using all the proceeds from these hypothetical exercises. This number is different from outstanding stock options, which is included in Note 3, Share-Based Compensation. |
Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Earnings per share, assuming dilution, is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the effect of the following types of potentially dilutive common shares:
• | convertible debt, |
• | employee stock options, and |
• | other equity awards, which include unvested restricted stock and long-term incentive awards. |

NOTE 2. | Earnings Per Share, continued |
Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 04-8,The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings Per Share, required CSX to include additional shares in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution. The amount included in diluted earnings per share represents the number of shares that would be issued if all of CSX’s convertible debentures were converted into CSX common stock.
When convertible debentures are converted into CSX common stock, the newly-issued shares are included in the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share. During third quarter and nine months of 2007, $37 million and $374 million of face value convertible debentures were converted into 1 million and 13 million shares of CSX common stock, respectively. No material conversions occurred during 2006. At September 2007, $174 million face value remained outstanding convertible into 6 million shares.
Stock options are excluded from the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution, when option exercise prices are greater than the average market price of the common shares during the period. In 2007, all stock options were dilutive. Therefore, no stock options were excluded from the calculation.

NOTE 3. | Share-Based Compensation |
CSX share-based compensation plans primarily include long-term incentive plans, 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 Governance Committee of the Board of Directors approves awards granted to the Company’s non-management Directors.
In May 2007, performance units were granted to certain layers 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 2009. Similar to the two existing plans, the key financial target is Surface Transportation operating ratio, which is defined as annual operating expenses divided by revenue of the Company’s rail and intermodal businesses and is calculated excluding certain non-recurring items. Grants were made in performance units and are payable in CSX common stock. The payout range for the majority of participants will be between 0% and 200% of the original grant, with each unit being equivalent to one share of CSX stock. The payout for certain senior executive officers is subject to a 20% increase or decrease based upon certain additional pre-established financial targets. This could result in a maximum payout of 240% of the original grant. However, any payout to certain senior executive officers is also 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.
Total pre-tax expense associated with share-based compensation and its related income tax benefit was as follows:
Third Quarters | Nine Months | |||||||||||

Income Tax Benefit | 5 | 4 | 17 | 8 |
(a) | Share-based compensation expense for nine months 2007 primarily included amounts incurred from the two long-term incentive programs approved in May 2006 and the long-term incentive program that was approved in May 2007. Overall, share-based compensation expense increased for nine months 2007 due to the timing of when the 2006 plans were approved and the addition of the 2007 plan. |

NOTE 4. | Income Taxes |
CSX and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. The Company has substantially concluded all U.S. federal income tax examinations for years through 2003 and substantially all other income tax matters have been concluded for years through 1998. Federal income tax returns for 2004 through 2006 are currently under examination.
In the third quarter of 2007, the Internal Revenue Service completed its review of the Company’s pre-filing agreement, which is an early review of specific transactions. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $110 million in the third quarter of 2007, primarily associated with the resolution of income tax matters related to former activities of the container shipping and marine service businesses. This third quarter benefit is recorded as discontinued operations as the Company no longer operates in these businesses. This benefit is associated with tax basis adjustments, foreign dividends and foreign tax credits from operations over a multi-year period.
CSX adopted FASB Interpretation 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), at the beginning of fiscal year 2007. As a result of the implementation, the Company recognized a $34 million decrease to reserves for uncertain tax positions. This decrease has two components of which amounts directly related to CSX were $31 million and unconsolidated subsidiaries accounted for under the equity method of accounting were $3 million. This decrease was recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings on the Balance Sheet.
At the beginning of 2007, CSX had approximately $207 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits after adjustment for the $34 million decrease to reserves mentioned above. Of this total, $197 million (net of the federal benefit on state issues) represented the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in any future periods.
As of the end of the third quarter 2007, CSX had approximately $60 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits. Of this total, $50 million (net of federal benefit on state issues) represented the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably impact the effective income tax rate. The decrease in unrecognized tax benefits primarily related to the discontinued operations benefit of $110 million. The Company estimates that approximately $15 million of the unrecognized tax benefits for various state and federal income tax matters will be resolved over the next 12 months.

NOTE 4. | Income Taxes, continued |
CSX’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of the beginning of 2007, the Company had $52 million accrued for interest and $0 accrued for penalties. At the end of the third quarter 2007, the Company had $26 million accrued for interest and $0 accrued for penalties. The decrease for interest is primarily related to the income tax benefit recorded as discontinued operations in the third quarter of 2007.
NOTE 5. | Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves |
Casualty, environmental and other reserves were determined to be critical accounting estimates due to the need for significant management judgments. They are provided for in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:
(Dollars in Millions) | September 28, 2007 | December 29, 2006 | ||||||||||||||||||
Current | Long-term | Total | Current | Long-term | Total | |||||||||||||||

Total | $ | 241 | $ | 666 | $ | 907 | $ | 253 | $ | 668 | $ | 921 | ||||||||
Details with respect to each type of reserve are described below. Actual settlements and claims received could differ. The final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty. 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 results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. However, should a number of these items occur in the same period, they could have a material effect on the results of operations, financial condition or liquidity in a particular quarter or fiscal year.
Casualty
Casualty reserves represent accruals for personal injury and occupational claims. Currently, no individual claim is expected to exceed the Company’s self-insured retention amount. To the extent the value of an individual claim exceeds the self-insured retention amount, CSX would present the liability on a gross basis with a corresponding receivable for insurance recoveries. Personal injury and occupational claims are presented on a gross basis and in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 5,Accounting for Contingencies.

CSX CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 5. | Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, continued |
These reserves fluctuate with estimates provided by independent third parties reviewed by management, offset by the timing of individual payments. Most of the claims were related to CSXT.
Personal Injury
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 are covered by various state workers’ compensation laws, the Federal Longshore and Harbor Worker’s Compensation Program or the Maritime Jones Act.
CSXT retains an independent actuarial firm to assist management in assessing the likely cost 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 type and severity of the injury, costs of medical treatments, and uncertainties in litigation.
Based on management’s review of its semi-annual actuarial analysis performed by an independent actuarial firm, personal injury reserves were reduced by $30 million during second quarter 2007. This reduction is due to a trend of significant decreases in the number and severity of work-related injuries for CSXT employees since 2003 and was included as a reduction to Materials, Supplies and Other in the Consolidated Income Statements.
Occupational
Occupational claims arise from allegations of exposures 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.
The Company retains a third party specialist with extensive experience in performing asbestos and other occupational studies to assist management in assessing the value of the Company’s claims and cases. The analysis is performed by the specialist semi-annually and is reviewed by management. The methodology used by the specialist includes an estimate of future anticipated claims based on the Company’s trends in average historical claim filing rates, future anticipated dismissal rates and settlement rates.

NOTE 5. | Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, continued |
Separation
Separation liabilities provide for the estimated costs 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 15 to 20 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 244 environmentally impaired sites. Many of those 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. However, a number of these proceedings 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 accordance with Statement of Position 96-1,Environmental Remediation Liabilities, the Company reviews its role with respect to each site identified at least once a quarter. 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 and include amounts representing the Company’s estimate of unasserted claims, which the Company believes to be immaterial. 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.

Currently, the Company does not possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of additional liabilities, if any, on some sites until completion of future environmental studies. In addition, conditions that are currently unknown could, at any given location, result in exposure, 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 results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
Other
Other reserves include liabilities for various claims, such as longshoremen disability claims, freight claims and claims for property, automobile and general liability. These liabilities are accrued at the estimable and probable amount in accordance with SFAS 5.
NOTE 6. | Commitments and Contingencies |
Purchase Commitments
CSXT has a commitment under a long-term maintenance program that currently covers 43% of CSXT’s fleet of locomotives. The agreement is based upon the maintenance cycle for each locomotive. Under CSXT’s current obligations, the agreement will expire no earlier than 2028 and may last until 2031 depending on the timing of when certain locomotives are placed in service. The costs expected to be incurred throughout the duration of the agreement fluctuate as locomotives are placed into, or removed from, service or as required maintenance schedules are adjusted. CSXT may terminate the agreement at its option after 2012, though such action would trigger certain liquidated damages provisions.
The following table summarizes CSXT’s payments under the long-term maintenance program:

Insurance
The Company maintains numerous insurance programs, most notably for third-party casualty liability and for Company property damage and business interruption with substantial limits. A specific amount of risk ($25 million per occurrence) is retained by the Company on each of the casualty and non-catastrophic property programs. The Company retains $50 million of risk per occurrence for its catastrophic property coverage. For information on insurance issues resulting from the effects of Hurricane Katrina on the Company’s operations and assets, see Note 8, Hurricane Katrina.
Guarantees
CSX and its subsidiaries are contingently liable, individually and jointly with others, as guarantors of approximately $75 million in obligations principally relating to leased equipment, vessels and joint facilities used by the Company in its current and former business operations. Utilizing the Company’s guarantee for these obligations allows the obligor to take advantage of lower interest rates and obtain other favorable terms. Guarantees are contingent commitments issued by the Company that could require CSX or one of its affiliates to make payment to or to perform certain actions for the beneficiary of the guarantee based on another entity’s failure to perform.
At the end of third quarter 2007, the Company’s guarantees primarily related to the following:
• | Guarantee of approximately $64 million of obligations of a former subsidiary, CSX Energy, in connection with a sale-leaseback transaction. CSX is, in turn, indemnified by several subsequent owners of the subsidiary against payments made with respect to this guarantee. Management does not expect that the Company will be required to make any payments under this guarantee for which CSX will not be reimbursed. CSX’s obligation under this guarantee will be completed in 2012. |
• | Guarantee of approximately $11 million of lease commitments assumed by A.P. Moller-Maersk (“Maersk”) for which CSX is contingently liable. CSX believes Maersk will fulfill its contractual commitments with respect to such lease commitments, and CSX will have no further liabilities for those obligations. CSX’s obligation under this guarantee will be completed in 2011. |

NOTE 6. | Commitments and Contingencies, continued |
As of third quarter 2007, the Company has not recognized any liabilities in its financial statements in connection with any guarantee arrangements. The maximum amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees is the amount of the guarantees themselves.
Fuel Surcharge Antitrust Litigation
Since May 2007, at least 26 putative class action suits have been brought in various federal district courts against CSXT and the four other U.S.-based Class I railroads. The lawsuits contain substantially similar allegations to the effect that the defendants’ fuel surcharge practices relating to contract and unregulated traffic resulted from an illegal conspiracy in violation of antitrust laws. The suits seek unquantified treble damages allegedly sustained by purported class members, attorneys’ fees and other relief. All but three of the lawsuits purport to be filed on behalf of a class of shippers that allegedly purchased rail freight transportation services from the defendants through the use of contracts or through other means exempt from rate regulation during defined periods commencing as early as June 2003 and were assessed fuel surcharges. Three of the lawsuits purport to be on behalf of indirect purchasers of rail services.
In July 2007, CSXT received a grand jury subpoena from the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General seeking information related to the same fuel surcharges that are the subject of the purported class actions. It is possible that additional federal or state agencies could initiate investigations into similar matters.
CSXT believes that its fuel surcharge practices are lawful. Accordingly, CSXT intends to vigorously defend itself against the purported class actions, which it believes are without merit. CSXT cannot predict the outcome of the putative class action lawsuits, which are in their preliminary stages, or of any government investigations, charges, or additional litigation that may be filed in the future. Penalties for violating antitrust laws can be severe, involving both potential criminal and civil liability. CSXT is unable to assess at this time the possible financial impact of this litigation. CSXT has not accrued any liability for an adverse outcome in the litigation. If a material adverse outcome were to occur and be sustained, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Other Legal Proceedings
In addition to the matter described 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 meritorious 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 results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. An unexpected adverse resolution of one or more of these items, however, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity in a particular quarter or fiscal year.

Convertible Debentures
In October 2001, CSX issued approximately $564 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of zero coupon convertible debentures (the “debentures”) due October 30, 2021, for an initial offering price of approximately $462 million.
Holders currently may convert their debentures into shares of CSX common stock at a conversion rate of 35.49 common shares per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of debentures. During third quarter and nine months of 2007, $37 million and $374 million face value of debentures were converted into 1 million and 13 million shares of CSX common stock, respectively. No material conversions occurred during 2006. At September 2007, $174 million face value remained outstanding convertible into 6 million shares.
Revolving Credit Facility
In May 2006, CSX entered into a $1.25 billion, five-year unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of lending banks, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which is acting as the administrative agent. In May 2007, with the consent of the lenders and in accordance with the facility’s terms, CSX extended the maturity date of the facility an additional year, to May 2012. As of September 28, 2007, the facility was not drawn on, and CSX was in compliance with all covenant requirements under the facility.

NOTE 8. | Hurricane Katrina |
In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina caused extensive damage to Company assets on the Gulf Coast, including damage to track infrastructure and bridges. Operations were returned to pre-hurricane conditions by the end of first quarter 2006. In 2005, the Company had insurance coverage of $535 million, after a $25 million deductible (per occurrence), for fixed asset replacement, incremental expenses and lost profits. Management’s current loss estimate is approximately $450 million.
The Company’s insurance policies do not prioritize coverage based on types of losses. As claims are submitted to the insurance companies, they are reviewed and preliminary payments made until all losses are incurred and documented. A final payment will be made once the Company and its insurers agree on the total measurement value of the claim. Through September 2007, the Company had collected insurance payments of $359 million.
Gains on insurance from claims related to Hurricane Katrina were as follows:
Third Quarters | Nine Months | ||||||||||||
2007 | 2006 | 2007 | 2006 | ||||||||||
Gain on Insurance Recoveries | $ | 1 | $ | 15 | $ | 19 | $141 |
The gains were attributable to recovering amounts in excess of the net book value of damaged fixed assets and to recording recoveries related to lost profits. Additional cash proceeds are expected and will result in future gain recognition.
Cash proceeds from the insurers are not specific to the types of losses and so the Company allocated the proceeds ratably among the three types of losses mentioned above for cash flow presentation. Allocated cash proceeds for lost profits and incremental expenses are classified as operating activities and were $10 million and $104 million for the nine months ended 2007 and 2006, respectively, since these were related directly to revenue and expenses from operations. Allocated cash proceeds for fixed asset damage are classified as investing activities and were $12 million and $130 million for the nine months ended 2007 and 2006, respectively, since they had a direct relationship to money the Company spent on property additions to repair the hurricane-damaged assets and were recorded in the same category.
Additional information about the effects of Hurricane Katrina is included in CSX’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 9. | Derivative Financial Instruments |
CSX uses derivative financial instruments to manage its overall exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, and has previously used such instruments to manage exposure to fluctuations in fuel costs.
Interest Rate Swaps
During second quarter 2007, CSX repaid $450 million of debentures that matured and called $150 million of debentures due in 2032. As a result, CSX also settled the interest rate swaps related to these debentures. As of September 2007, CSX had a $35 million outstanding interest rate swap. This swap did not have a material impact on interest expense.
Fuel Hedging
In 2003, CSX began a program to hedge a portion of CSXT’s future locomotive fuel purchases. This program was established to manage exposure to fuel price fluctuations. To minimize this risk, CSX entered into a series of swaps. CSX suspended entering into new swaps in its fuel hedge program in the third quarter of 2004 and there are currently no outstanding contracts.
Fuel hedging activity reduced fuel expense for the third quarter and nine months of 2006 by $1 million and $55 million, respectively. Since fourth quarter 2006, there has been no impact on fuel expense because all contracts had expired prior to that time.

NOTE 10. | Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) |
Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that, under generally accepted accounting principles, are included in comprehensive income, a component of Shareholders’ Equity within the Consolidated Balance Sheets, rather than Net Earnings on the Consolidated Income Statements. Under existing accounting standards, other comprehensive income (loss) for CSX may include the amortization of unrecognized gains and losses and prior service cost related to pension and other postretirement benefit plans and activity related to derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net earnings reported in the Consolidated Income Statements to comprehensive income:

NOTE 12. | Business Segments |
The Company operates primarily in two business segments: rail and intermodal. The rail segment provides rail freight transportation over a network of approximately 21,000 route miles in 23 states, the District of Columbia and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec. The intermodal segment provides integrated rail and truck transportation services and operates a network of dedicated intermodal facilities across North America. These segments are strategic business units that offer different services and are managed separately. Performance is evaluated and resources are allocated based on several factors, of which the principal financial measures are business segment operating income and operating ratio. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, Significant Accounting Policies, in CSX’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Consolidated operating income includes the results of operations of Surface Transportation and other operating income. Other operating income includes the gain amortization on the conveyance of CSX Lines, a former Marine Services subsidiary, net sublease income from assets formerly included in the Company’s Marine Services segment and other items.

NOTE 13. | Employee Benefit Plans |
The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans principally for salaried, management personnel. The plans provide eligible employees with retirement benefits based predominantly upon 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 pay credits based upon age, service and compensation. CSX made contributions of $21 million during the nine months of 2007 to its defined benefit pension plans. Additional contributions may be made based on management’s discretion.
In addition to these plans, CSX sponsors a post-retirement medical plan and one life insurance plan that provide benefits to full-time, salaried, management employees hired prior to January 1, 2003, 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.
