CSX REPORTS HIGHER FOURTH-QUARTER EARNINGS
 
RICHMOND, Va., Jan. 30, 2003—CSX Corporation (NYSE: CSX) today reported fourth quarter net income of $137 million, or 64 cents per share, up from $65 million, or 31 cents a year ago. Fourth quarter 2001 earnings included a litigation provision, which reduced earnings by $37 million, or 17 cents per share.
 
Stronger operating results from surface transportation, which includes CSX’s rail and intermodal units, account for much of the year-over-year quarterly improvement. Surface transportation operating income was $281 million compared to $186 million in 2001, which included the $60 million litigation provision. Adjusting for this provision, operating income would have been $246 million in 2001. The 2002 fourth-quarter operating income has $11 million of net benefits primarily from state and local tax adjustments.
 
In the fourth quarter, solid merchandise, automotive and intermodal revenue gains more than offset an 8% year-to-year decline in coal revenues. Labor expenses were flat compared to a year ago, while lower material and supply costs and Conrail expenses for the quarter more than offset higher depreciation and fuel expenses. Purchased inland transportation costs increased in proportion with the continued success of CSX’s truck to rail modal conversion program.
 
Michael J. Ward, CSX president, noted: “The company regained earnings momentum in the fourth quarter. Our people are providing customers with better service, productivity is rising and costs are lower, and employee safety continues to improve.
 
“We are looking for solid gains in 2003. Our productivity gains and cost reduction efforts throughout the company will continue,” Ward said. “With our pricing programs and modal conversion initiatives, we are looking for revenue gains even in a flat economy. Here in the first quarter, fuel and weather are challenges, but I am confident that we can lessen their impact.”
 
On a consolidated basis, CSX fourth-quarter operating income totaled $318 million versus $221 million, including the litigation provision. Revenues were $2.06 billion compared to $2.01 billion in 2001. These results include CSX Lines, which is being conveyed to the Carlyle Group, and CSX World Terminals.
 
For the full year 2002, CSX net income was $424 million, or $1.99 per share, compared to $293 million, or $1.38 per share in the prior year. 2002 results include the cumulative effect of adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” in the first quarter which reduced net earnings by $43 million, or 20 cents per share. 2001 results include the litigation provision taken in the fourth quarter, which lowered net earnings by $37 million, or 17 cents per share.
 
CSX Corporation, based in Richmond, Va., operates one of the largest rail networks in the United States and also provides intermodal, container-shipping and international terminal management services. More information about the company is available at its Internet address: www.csx.com.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
(1)
 
In 2001, Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142 (SFAS 142), “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” was issued. Under the provisions of SFAS 142, goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed for impairment on a periodic basis. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2002 and incurred a charge of $83 million, $43 million after tax and consideration of minority interest, 20 cents per share, as a cumulative effect of an accounting change, which represents the difference between book value and the fair value of indefinite lived intangible assets. The indefinite lived intangible assets are permits and licenses that the company holds relating to a proposed pipeline to transfer natural gas from Alaska’s north slope to the port in Valdez, Alaska. Adoption of SFAS 142 will not have a material effect on future earnings.
(2)
 
CSX recorded a provision in the fourth quarter of 2001 to account for the settlement of the 1987 New Orleans tank car fire litigation. This charge reduced earnings by $60 million, $37 million after tax, 17 cents per share.
(3)
 
On Dec. 17, 2002, CSX announced that it had reached an agreement to convey its domestic container-shipping subsidiary, CSX Lines, LLC, to a venture for $300 million ($240 million of cash and $60 million of securities). CSX expects this transaction to close in the first quarter of 2003. The assets and liabilities of CSX Lines, LLC, that are to be conveyed under this agreement are classified as domestic container assets and liabilities held for disposition on the statement of financial position as of Dec. 27, 2002, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”

EBITDA FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS(1) (Unaudited)

(Millions of Dollars)
 
This computation of Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) is presented because management believes it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors and analysts to evaluate companies on the basis of operating performance. This is not considered to be better information than is available in the Company’s publicly available reports filed with the SEC and does not conform with generally accepted accounting principles. CSX owns a 42% undivided interest in Conrail, Inc., and operates over a portion of the Conrail territory under the terms of an operating agreement. Conrail loans its excess cash to its owners under loan agreements at market interest rates. The calculation of EBITDA combines CSX and Conrail financial data for analytical purposes only and is not intended to suggest that CSX has control over Conrail’s operations.

SURFACE TRANSPORTATION OPERATING RESULTS (continued)
  
Quarterly Flash



      

Surface Transportation operating expenses decreased by $4 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2001 (excluding 2001 litigation provision of $60 million).
 
 
Labor and Fringe decreased by $2 million versus a year ago, which includes $6 million of severance and other costs primarily related to the December 2002 workforce reductions. General wage and benefit inflation was more than offset by reduction in overall employment levels of approximately 900 employees compared to prior year.
 
Materials, Supplies and Other decreased by $25 million compared to prior year. The driving force behind the improvement was $17 million of state and local tax adjustments to reduce estimated liabilities to actual assessments. In addition, freight loss and damage expenses and other safety-related costs were reduced, as were other expenses as a result of improved cost control.
 
Conrail Operating Fee, Rent and Services improved by $11 million year-over-year due primarily to continued cost and activity reductions.
 
Building & Equipment Rent in the fourth quarter decreased by $2 million versus prior year period primarily due to a further reduction in car hire expense.
 
Inland Transportation increased by $10 million versus prior year fourth quarter, which is a direct result of increased intermodal volumes. Foreign linehaul expenses increased by $4 million as transcontinental Intermodal traffic volumes improved. In addition, Intermodal trucking expense increased by $5 million also due to increased intermodal volumes.
 
Depreciation increased by $19 million versus fourth quarter 2001 primarily related to increased capital expenditures in the second half of the year.
 
Fuel expenses increased by $7 million for the quarter. Average price per gallon increased by 3 cents, or $5 million in total.

CSX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
    
SURFACE TRANSPORTATION TRAFFIC AND REVENUE (continued)
  
Quarterly Flash



      

 
MERCHANDISE
 
Merchandise revenues in the fourth quarter were up 5% on flat year-over-year volumes. With the exception of phosphate and fertilizer revenues, which were flat, all merchandise markets showed year-over-year revenue improvement.
 
Phosphates and Fertilizers—Weakness in lower revenue per car movements of phosphate rock, potash and ammonia shipments was more than offset by strength in higher revenue-per-car movements of domestic phosphate chemicals and sulfur.
 
Metals—Favorable variance was driven by strong import and domestic slab shipments, along with increased coil, plate and structural shipments.
 
Food and Consumer—Gains in higher revenue-per-car movements of canned goods, alcohol and Express Lane shipments more than offset weakness in lower revenue per car shipments of appliances and transportation equipment.
 
Paper and Forest—Weak prior year comparisons resulted in volume gains primarily due to pulp board shipments and low box plant inventories. Year-over-year comparisons for printing paper shipments were also positive, driven primarily by depressed post Sept. 11 shipments last year.
 
Agricultural—Weakness in feed ingredients and export grain was offset by increase in wheat flour and domestic grain movements.
 
Chemicals—Positive performance was driven by strength in plastics, textile chemicals and liquid petroleum gas. Rate increases continue to drive revenue yield improvements.
 
Minerals—Strength in industrial sand more than offset weakness in roofing granules, industrial sand and ores.
 
Emerging Markets—Strength in high revenue-per-car military movements more than offset weakness in low revenue per car movements of aggregates and salt.
 
AUTOMOTIVE
 
Automotive volumes were up 5% and revenue was up 8% in the fourth quarter. Yield improvement continues to be driven primarily by favorable mix and extended linehauls. Year-over-year volume comparisons continued to be favorable due to continued growth in light truck production.
 
COAL, COKE AND IRON ORE
 
Fourth quarter coal volumes and revenues were down 8%. Utility volumes were down as a result of reduced trans-load shipments to Lake Erie and to Southern utilities. Export movements were down significantly as a result of reduced competitive standing of U.S. coal in the international market. Metallurgical and industrial markets were down due to general economic conditions affecting end use markets. Tons per car continue to increase as a result of mix and car type utilization but the resulting yield improvement is offset by increased short-haul shipments.
 
INTERMODAL
 
Domestic—Significant strength in transcontinental domestic container traffic offset continued weakness in U.S. mail and parcels in the fourth quarter. Revenue per unit improved due to increased length of haul, a favorable pricing environment and growth in higher priced door-to-door traffic.
 
International—The labor disruptions at West Coast ports had a negative impact on volume and revenue. Diversions of Pacific Rim traffic to East Coast ports offset some of this impact but had a negative impact on revenue per unit.

DOMESTIC CONTAINER SHIPPING
 
Operating income was $6 million in the fourth quarter of 2002 compared to $11 million in the prior year. Fourth quarter 2002 earnings were affected by approximately $7 million as a result of the ten-day labor disruptions at West Coast ports. CSX Lines’ revenue was up by $22 million over the prior year. Strong market share gains in the Hawaii and Puerto Rico tradelanes were offset by a loss of $12 million in revenue in the Hawaii and Alaska tradelanes from the labor disruptions. Operating expenses have increased by $27 million over the prior year as a result of the increased volume being carried, which includes the deployment of an additional vessel in the Puerto Rico trade, and a $5 million impact from higher fuel prices.
 
On Dec. 17, 2002, CSX announced that it had reached an agreement to convey its domestic container-shipping subsidiary, CSX Lines, LLC to a venture for $300 million ($240 million of cash and $60 million of securities). CSX expects this transaction to close in the first quarter of 2003.
 
INTERNATIONAL TERMINALS
 
Operating income for the fourth quarter was $24 million compared to $21 million in the prior year, an improvement of 14%. Revenue was down $2 million as a direct result of the global economic conditions and the impact from the labor disruptions on the West Coast. Several cost-cutting initiatives and a $6 million gain on the divestiture of a portion of the Caucedo terminal ownership interest, which is included in miscellaneous, more than offset the lower revenue.
