Kansas City Southern Industries, Inc. Date: January 26, 2001 By: /s/ Louis G. Van Horn ---------------------------- Louis G. Van Horn Vice President and Controller (Principal Accounting Officer) EXHIBIT 99.1 Date: January 24, 2001 Kansas City Southern Media Contact: William Galligan Industries, Inc. 816-983-1551 114 West 11th Street Kansas City, MO 64105 NYSE Symbol: KSU Kansas City Southern Industries Reports Improved Fourth Quarter and Year to Date Income From Continuing Operations Earnings Analysis and Commentary Kansas City Southern Industries, Inc. ("KCSI", "the Company") reported fourth quarter 2000 income from continuing operations of $3.6 million (6 cents per diluted share) compared to a loss of $7.2 million (13 cents per diluted share) in the fourth quarter of 1999. This $10.8 million improvement resulted primarily from an increase in U.S. operating income of $6.8 million, a $6.1 million increase in equity earnings related to Grupo Transportacion Ferroviaria Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. ("Grupo TFM"), and a decrease in interest expense of $2.5 million, somewhat offset by a decline in income tax benefits. KCSI's consolidated fourth quarter 2000 revenue decline of $16.9 million (11.1%) was more than offset by a $23.7 million reduction in operating expenses, resulting in improved operating income. Fourth quarter 1999 included $12.8 million of non-recurring unusual costs and expenses. Excluding these costs from 1999, fourth quarter 2000 operating expenses declined $10.9 million or 8.2% compared to prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2000, income from continuing operations, before extraordinary items, increased $15.2 million (149%) to $25.4 million, or 43 cents per diluted share, from $10.2 million, or 17 cents per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 1999. A $20.1 million increase in equity earnings from Grupo TFM and a $5.3 million decrease in the income tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2000 were partially offset by a decline in U.S. operating income of $1.0 million and an increase in interest expense of $8.4 million. Consolidated revenues declined 4.9% while consolidated operating expenses declined 5.2% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 compared with 1999. Excluding the impact of unusual costs and expenses experienced in fourth quarter 1999, year to date 2000 consolidated operating expenses declined 2.9% compared to 1999. During January 2000, the Company re-capitalized its debt structure in anticipation of the Spin-off of Stilwell Financial, which was completed in July 2000, and in September 2000 also refinanced $200 million of bank debt with $200 million of 8-year senior unsecured notes. In connection with these transactions KCSI recorded extraordinary debt retirement costs of approximately $7.0 million, (net of income taxes). Additionally, during the third quarter of 2000, Grupo TFM refinanced $300 million of bank debt with a U.S. Commercial Paper program. Total KCSI and Grupo TFM debt retirement related extraordinary charges for 2000 were $8.7 million, or 15 cents per diluted share, net of income taxes.

As discussed above, the Spin-off occurred on July 12, 2000 and, accordingly, at the close of the New York Stock Exchange on July 12, 2000, each two shares of KCSI Common stock was converted to one share of KCSI Common stock. All periods presented have been restated to reflect this reverse split. Following the Spin-off of Stilwell from the Company on July 12, 2000, KCSI is comprised of, among others, The Kansas City Southern Railway Company ("KCSR"), Gateway Western Railway Company ("Gateway Western") and equity investments in Grupo TFM and Mexrail, Inc. Fourth Quarter KCSI reported income from continuing operations of $3.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2000 compared to a loss of $7.2 million in fourth quarter 1999. KCSI's consolidated fourth quarter 2000 revenues totaled $134.8 million versus $151.7 million in fourth quarter 1999. This $16.9 million (11.1%) decrease resulted primarily from lower combined KCSR/Gateway Western revenues of approximately $15.9 million. While revenue growth was experienced in certain product sectors including plastics, automotive, food products and metal/scrap shipments, most commodities showed weakness in the fourth quarter on a decline in carload volumes. As the general U.S. economy slowed in fourth quarter 2000, industrial production and manufacturing also retracted leading to a decline in demand for product shipments. Unit coal revenues were particularly lower (28%) as a major customer reduced coal deliveries in fourth quarter 2000 to decrease inventory stockpiles. KCSI's consolidated operating costs and expenses decreased $23.7 million (16.2%) in the fourth quarter of 2000 compared to the fourth quarter of 1999. Fourth quarter 1999 included $12.8 million of unusual costs and expenses reflecting, among others, amounts for facility and project closures, employee separations, spin-off related costs, labor and personal injury related issues. Excluding these costs from 1999, fourth quarter 2000 operating costs declined $10.9 million compared to adjusted fourth quarter 1999. Fourth quarter 2000 operating costs declined, in spite of diesel fuel costs, which rose approximately 30% in the fourth quarter of 2000 compared to fourth quarter 1999, and higher casualty costs. Overall operating costs declined primarily due to operational efficiencies, cost containment efforts and gains on the sale of operating property at KCSR and Gateway Western. These operational improvements led to a quarter over quarter decrease in salaries and wages, car hire and purchased services. Revenue declines, however, resulted in increasing the combined KCSR/Gateway Western operating ratio for fourth quarter 2000 to 88.7% compared to 85.7% in the same 1999 period, excluding unusual costs and expenses. Equity earnings related to the Company's investment in Grupo TFM improved to $2.8 million for fourth quarter 2000 versus a loss of $3.3 million in fourth quarter 1999. Grupo TFM revenues improved 18% to $165.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2000 from $140.7 million for the fourth quarter of 1999. These higher revenues were partially offset by an approximate 21% increase in operating expenses arising primarily from higher fuel costs and costs due to increased traffic volumes. Despite the impact of these higher operating costs, operating income rose approximately 5% quarter to quarter. The operating ratio increased to 78.6% in the fourth quarter of 2000 versus 77.1% in the fourth quarter of 1999. Additionally, fourth quarter 2000 results included a $0.3 million deferred tax expense (calculated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles - "U.S. GAAP") versus a deferred tax expense of $16.5 million in fourth quarter 1999, which was caused by a significant change in the peso exchange rate at the end of 1999. The Company reports its equity in Grupo TFM under U.S. GAAP while Grupo TFM reports under International Accounting Standards. KCSI interest expense in the fourth quarter of 2000 declined 18% from the prior year quarter. Increased interest expense due to higher interest rates and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the January 2000 debt re-capitalization was more than offset by a benefit related to the adjustment of interest expense on anticipated tax deficiency items. Year to Date The Company's income from continuing operations before extraordinary items for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 totaled $25.4 million versus $10.2 million in the same 1999 period (a 149% improvement). KCSI's consolidated revenues declined approximately 4.9%, while operating expenses declined 5.2% period to period. Year to date combined KCSR/Gateway Western revenues decreased $22.5 million primarily as a result of declines in coal, export grain, chemical/petroleum and haulage revenues. These declines were partially offset by increases in paper and forest products and intermodal/automotive revenues. Excluding the unusual costs and expenses in fourth quarter 1999, combined KCSR/Gateway Western operating costs decreased approximately $6.1 million period to period. Lower costs were experienced in salaries & wages, material & supplies and car hire, along with the impact of gains on sales of operating property. Fuel costs, however, rose 40% in 2000 compared to 1999 on a 64% increase in average diesel fuel prices. The combined KCSR/Gateway Western operating ratio was 87.3% for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to 85.1% for the year ended December 31, 1999, excluding unusual costs and expenses in 1999. Excluding the impact of the Grupo TFM extraordinary item recorded in third quarter 2000, equity earnings from Grupo TFM improved $20.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to the year ended December 31, 1999. Grupo TFM's revenues increased 22% period to period, while operating income increased nearly 34% resulting in an operating ratio of 74.0% for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to 76.6% for 1999. Under U.S. GAAP, the deferred tax benefit for Grupo TFM was $13.2 million (excluding the impact of the extraordinary item) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 compared to a deferred tax expense of $11.5 million in 1999. BUSINESS OUTLOOK Michael R. Haverty, KCSI Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "While we experienced the revenue effects of an economic slowdown and a 28% reduction in our unit coal revenues in fourth quarter 2000, we are pleased with our efforts to contain operating costs. We believe we have established an effective operating cost structure that will prove beneficial as we anticipate the return to revenue growth on our U.S. properties in 2001. In addition, the ongoing success of our investment in Grupo TFM is a validation of our NAFTA railway strategy. The incredible growth story at Grupo TFM continues as revenues and operating profit for 2000 have increased nearly 22% and 34%, respectively. Equity earnings from Grupo TFM have increased $20.1 million this year over last year and have been a significant contributor to our income from continuing operations during 2000. We continue to believe that the best is yet to come with our Mexican investment in Grupo TFM as it realizes its potential as the rail transportation leader in NAFTA traffic for the North American marketplace. Over the course of 2000, we significantly improved the efficiency and cost structure of our U.S. railroad operations. As anticipated revenue growth materializes, this improved cost structure will produce improved profitability. We have seen diesel fuel price increases in 2000, which have not been experienced in many years. We effectively managed our exposure to dramatic fuel cost increases by aggressively focusing on improved locomotive efficiency. We believe our improvement in fuel efficiency through the lease of 50 new fuel-efficient locomotives in late 1999 as well as an aggressive fuel conservation program initiated in mid-1999 demonstrated its impact on fuel costs. Additionally, we continue to experience lower salaries and wages through the reduction of the amount of overtime hours worked and the number of relief train crews used as well as a reduction in total employee count. Domestically we were adversely affected by a fourth quarter economic slowdown, a significant reduction in coal shipments by our largest customer, highly competitive rate pressures and high interest costs. As we look to 2001, we envision continued success in Mexico with Grupo TFM, increasing revenues and profitability for our U.S. operations as we regain our coal traffic and increase automotive and chemical traffic, the re-opening of commercial service on the Panama Canal Railway and an emphasis on reducing corporate debt throughout the year. KCSI management continues its strong commitment toward maximizing the potential of the NAFTA franchise and enhancing shareholder value."
