The Company only has one operating segment: rail transportation. Although the Company provides a breakdown of revenue by business line, the overall financial and operational performance of the Company is analyzed as one segment due to the integrated nature of the rail network. Additional information regarding the Company's business and operations, including revenue and financial information, and information by geographic location is presented in Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 27 Segmented and geographic information.

The Company transports freight consisting of bulk commodities, merchandise, and intermodal traffic. Bulk commodities, which typically move in large volumes across long distances, include Grain, Coal, Potash, and Fertilizers and sulphur. Merchandise freight consists of industrial and consumer products, such as Forest products, Energy, chemicals and plastics, Metals, minerals and consumer products, and Automotive. Intermodal traffic consists largely of retail goods in overseas containers that are transported by train, ship, and truck, and in domestic containers that are moved by train and truck.

In 2024, the Company generated Freight revenues totalling $14,223 million ($12,281 million in 2023). The following chart shows the percentage of the Company’s total Freight revenues derived from each of the three major lines of business in 2024:

The Company's Bulk business represented approximately 35% of total Freight revenues in 2024.

Bulk includes the Grain, Coal, Potash, and Fertilizers and sulphur lines of business. Bulk traffic predominantly moves in unit train service moving from one origin to one destination by a single train. The following chart shows the percentage of the Company's bulk freight revenues by line of business in 2024:

The Company’s Grain business represented approximately 61% of bulk revenues and 21% of total Freight revenues in 2024.

The Company's network is unique among railways in North America as it is strategically positioned in the heart of grain-producing regions of western Canada and the northern plains of the U.S. The Company also provides a service advantage, by way of its 8,500-foot High Efficiency Product ("HEP") TrainsTM including high-capacity hopper cars, which enables the Company to efficiently serve farmers, shippers, and the entire grain supply chain. The 8,500-foot HEP TrainsTM can move approximately 40% more grain than the prior generation of grain trains.

The following chart shows the percentage of the Company's Grain freight revenues generated from U.S. and Canadian shipments in 2024:

U.S. grain transported by the Company consists of whole grains, such as corn, wheat, and soybeans, as well as processed products such as meals, feeds, and oils. This business is centred in the northern plains of the U.S. and the U.S. Midwest. The Company moves U.S. grain to facilities in Mexico, export terminals in the U.S. Pacific Northwest, and to various other destinations across the U.S. and Canada for domestic consumption.

Canadian grain transported by the Company consists of whole grains, such as wheat, durum, canola, and pulses, as well as processed products such as oils and meals. This business is centred in the Canadian Prairies (Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Alberta), with grain shipped primarily west to the Port of Vancouver and east to the Port of Thunder Bay for export. Grain is also shipped to the U.S., eastern Canada, and Mexico for domestic consumption.

The majority of Canadian grain shipments are regulated by the Canadian government through the Canada Transportation Act (the “CTA”). This regulated business is subject to a maximum revenue entitlement (“MRE”). Under the CTA, railways can set their own rates for individual movements. However, the 6 / CPKC 2024 ANNUAL REPORT

MRE governs aggregate revenues earned by the railway based on a formula that factors in the total volume, length of haul, average revenue per ton, and inflationary adjustments. The regulation applies to western Canadian export grain shipments to the ports of Vancouver and Thunder Bay.

The Company’s Coal business represented approximately 19% of bulk revenues and 7% of total Freight revenues in 2024.

In 2024, the Company opened the CPKC Dallas Automotive Facility in Wylie, Texas as part of the Company's closed loop rail service for Original Equipment Manufacturers to move vehicles to markets between Canada, the U.S., and Mexico.

The Company’s Intermodal business represented approximately 18% of total Freight revenues in 2024.

The Company's Intermodal freight revenues are generated from domestic and international movements. Domestic intermodal freight consists primarily of manufactured consumer products that are predominantly moved in 53-foot containers within North America. International intermodal freight moves in marine containers to and from ports and North American inland markets.

The following chart shows the percentage of the Company's Intermodal freight revenues generated from domestic intermodal and international intermodal in 2024.

The Company's domestic intermodal business represented approximately 55% of Intermodal revenues and 10% of total Freight revenues in 2024.

The Company’s domestic intermodal business moves goods from a broad spectrum of industries including wholesale, retail, food, and various other commodities. Key service factors in domestic intermodal include consistent on-time delivery and the ability to provide door-to-door service. The majority of the Company’s domestic intermodal business originates in Canada, where the Company markets its services directly to retailers and manufacturers and maintains direct relationships with its customers. In the U.S. and Mexico, the Company’s services are delivered mainly through intermodal marketing companies. In 2023, the Company launched the Mexico Midwest Express ("MMX") Series premium intermodal service to provide the first truck-competitive, single-line rail service option between the U.S. Midwest and Mexico.

The Company's international intermodal business represented approximately 45% of Intermodal revenues and 8% of total Freight revenues in 2024.

The Company’s international intermodal business consists primarily of containerized traffic moving between the Port of Vancouver, the Port of Lázaro Cárdenas, the Port of Montréal, the Port of Saint John, and inland points across North America. Import traffic from the Port of Vancouver is mainly long-haul business destined for eastern Canada and the U.S. Midwest. Import traffic from the Port of Lázaro Cárdenas is primarily destined for Mexico. The Company works closely with the Port of Montréal, a major year-round East Coast gateway to Europe, to serve markets primarily in Canada and the U.S. Midwest. The Company's access to the Port of Saint John provides the fastest rail service from the East Coast to Canadian and U.S. markets for import from and export to Asia, Europe, and South America.

The short-term volatility in fuel prices may adversely or positively impact revenues. The Company employs a fuel cost adjustment program designed to respond to fluctuations in fuel prices and help reduce volatility to changing fuel prices. Fuel surcharge revenues are earned on individual shipments and are based primarily on the price of On-Highway Diesel in Canada and the U.S. and the public fuel price for Petróleos Mexicanos ("PEMEX") TAR Irapuato in Mexico. As such, fuel surcharge revenues are a function of freight volumes and fuel prices. Fuel surcharge revenues accounted for approximately 12% of the Company's Freight revenues in 2024. The Company is also subject to carbon taxation systems and levies in some jurisdictions in which it operates, the costs of which are passed on to the shipper. As such, fuel surcharge revenue includes recoveries of carbon taxes and levies.

Freight revenues included fuel surcharge revenues of $1,651 million in 2024, an increase of $28 million, or 2%, from $1,623 million in the same period of 2023. This increase was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition, increased carbon levy surcharge revenue, higher volumes, and the favourable impact of the change in foreign exchange ("FX"), partially offset by lower fuel prices and the unfavourable impact from the timing of recoveries under the Company's fuel cost adjustment program.

For each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company's revenues and operations were not dependent on any major customers.

The Company is in the ground transportation and logistics business and competes with other railways, motor carriers, ship and barge operators, and pipelines. Depending on the specific market, competing railways, motor carriers, and other competitors may exert pressure on price and service levels. The Company continually evaluates the market needs and the competition. The Company responds as it deems appropriate to provide competitive services to the market. This includes developing new offerings such as transload facilities, new train services, and other logistics services.

Volumes and revenues from certain goods are higher during different periods of the year. First-quarter revenues are typically lower mainly due to winter weather conditions which results in reduced capacity under the winter operating plan with train length restrictions, the closure of the Port of Thunder Bay, and reduced transportation of retail goods. Second and third quarter revenues generally improve compared to the first quarter, as fertilizer volumes are typically highest during the second quarter and demand for construction-related goods is generally highest in the third quarter. Revenues are typically highest in the fourth quarter primarily as a result of the transportation of grain after the harvest, fall fertilizer programs, and increased demand for retail goods moved by rail. Operating income is also affected by seasonal fluctuations. Operating income is typically lowest in the first quarter due to lower freight revenues and higher operating costs associated with winter conditions.

The Company’s railway operations are subject to extensive federal laws, regulations, and rules in the countries in which it operates, which directly affect how operations and business activities are managed.

The Company’s rail operations in Canada are subject to economic regulation by the Canadian Transportation Agency (the "Agency") pursuant to authorities under the CTA. The CTA establishes a common carrier obligation and it indirectly regulates rates by providing shippers access to regulatory mechanisms for challenging freight rates, including ancillary charges, and access to regulated interswitching rates and long-haul interswitching rates; and regulatory mechanisms to challenge level of service. The CTA also establishes an MRE for the transportation of Canadian export grain and other agriculture products, which is administered by the Agency. Finally, the Agency makes regulatory determinations regarding the construction and abandonment of railway lines, commuter and passenger access, and noise and vibration-related disputes.

The Company’s rail operations in Canada are subject to safety and security regulatory requirements enforced by Transport Canada ("TC") pursuant to the Railway Safety Act ("RSA") and the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act (the "TDGA"). The RSA regulates safety-related aspects of railway operations in Canada, including the delegation of inspection, investigation, and enforcement powers to TC. TC is also responsible for overseeing the safe and secure transportation of dangerous goods.

Various other regulators directly and indirectly affect the Company’s operations in areas such as health, safety, environment, climate, sustainability and other matters.

The Company’s U.S. rail operations are subject to economic regulation by the STB. The STB provides economic regulatory oversight and administers Title 49 of the United States Code and related Code of Federal Regulations. The STB has jurisdiction over railroad rate and service issues, proposed railroad mergers, and other transactions.

The Company’s U.S. operations are subject to safety regulations enforced by the Federal Railroad Administration (the “FRA”), and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (“PHMSA”). The FRA regulates safety-related aspects of the Company’s railway operations in the U.S. under the Federal Railroad Safety Act, as well as rail portions of other safety statutes. The PHMSA regulates the safe transportation of hazardous materials by rail. The Company’s U.S. rail operations are also subject to security regulations and directives by the Transportation Security Administration ("TSA"), a component of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Various other regulators directly and indirectly affect the Company’s operations in areas such as health, safety, security, environmental, climate, sustainability and other matters.

Primary regulatory oversight of the Company’s Mexican operations is provided by the Mexican Agencia Reguladora del Transporte Ferroviario (also known as Mexico's Railway Transport Regulatory Agency) (the "ARTF"). The ARTF establishes regulations concerning railway safety and operations, and is responsible for resolving disputes between railways and customers. Kansas City Southern de México, S.A. de C.V. (also known as Canadian Pacific Kansas City Mexico) ("CPKCM") must register its maximum rates with the ARTF and make regular reports to the ARTF and the Secretaría de Infraestructura, Comunicaciones y Transportes (also known as Secretariat of Infrastructure, Communications and Transportation) (the "SICT").

CPKCM must provide reports on investments, traffic volumes, theft and vandalism on the general right of way, customer complaints, fuel consumption, number of locomotives, railcars and employees, and activities around maintenance of way, sidings and spurs, among other financial information and reports. The Company may freely set rates on a non-discriminatory basis up to the maximum rates registered with the ARTF. At any time, the ARTF may request additional information regarding the determination of maximum rates and may issue recommendations with respect to proposed rate increases. If the ARTF or another party considers there to be no effective competition, they may request an opinion from the Comisión Federal de Competencia Económica (also known as Mexican Antitrust Commission) (the “COFECE”) regarding market conditions. If the COFECE determines that there is no effective competition for particular movements, the ARTF could set rates for those movements or grant limited trackage rights to another railroad while the condition of no effective competition remains.

CPKCM holds a concession from the Mexican government until June 2047, which is renewable under certain conditions, for additional periods, each up to 50 years (the "Concession"). CPKCM has the exclusive right to provide the freight rail service through 2037, subject to certain trackage and haulage rights granted to other freight rail concessionaires, and subject to trackage and haulage rights afforded to concessionaires of concessions that may be granted by the SICT to provide passenger rail service in the future. The Concession authorizes CPKCM to provide freight transportation services over north-east rail lines, which are a primary commercial corridor of the Mexican railroad system. CPKCM is required to provide freight railroad services to all users on a fair and non-discriminatory basis and in accordance with efficiency and safety standards approved periodically by the Mexican government.

CPKCM has the right to use, but does not own, all track and buildings that are necessary for the rail lines’ operation. CPKCM is obligated to maintain the right of way, track structure, buildings and related maintenance facilities to the operational standards specified in the Concession agreement and to return the assets in that condition at the end of the Concession period. During the remainder of the Concession period, CPKCM is required to pay the Mexican government an annual concession duty equal to 1.25% of gross revenues. The ARTF may request information to verify CPKCM´s compliance with the Concession and any applicable regulatory framework.

The Company’s operations and real estate assets are subject to extensive federal, provincial, state, and local environmental laws and regulations, including those governing air pollutants, greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions, (please see “Sustainability-Related Laws, Regulations and Strategies” for further discussion), management and remediation of historical contaminant sites, discharges to waters and the handling, storage, transportation, and disposal of waste and other materials. If the Company is found to have violated such laws or regulations, or to have acted in a manner that is inconsistent with regulatory expectations, such a finding could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or operating results. In addition, in operating a railway, the release of hazardous materials during derailments or other accidents have, or may occur, that could cause harm to human health or to the environment. Costs of remediation, damages and changes in regulations could materially affect the Company’s operating results, financial condition, and reputation. Please see “Legal and Regulatory Risks” in Item 1A. Risk Factors for further discussion.

The Company has implemented an Environmental Management System to facilitate the reduction of environmental risk. Specific environmental programs are in place and designed to address areas such as locomotive air emissions, GHG reporting, management of vegetation, wastewater, chemicals and waste, storage tanks, and fueling facilities. The Company has also undertaken environmental impact assessments and risk assessments designed to identify, prevent, and mitigate environmental risks. There is continued focus on preventing spills and other incidents that have a negative impact on the environment. There is an established strategic emergency response contractor network, and spill equipment kits are located across its network to support a rapid and efficient response in the event of an environmental incident. In addition, emergency preparedness and response plans are regularly updated and tested.

The Company has established an environmental audit program aimed at conducting thorough, systematic, and routine assessments of its facilities to comply with legal requirements and adherence to accepted industry standards, accompanied by a corrective action follow-up process and senior management review.

The Company focuses on key strategies, identifying tactics and actions to support and operationalize our environmental commitments. The Company’s environmental strategies include:

•Implementing measures designed to minimize or prevent environmental impacts from our operations and facilities, and to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations;

•Maintaining an Environmental Management System designed to provide consistent, effective guidance and resources to the Company's employees in regard to the management of air emissions, dangerous goods and waste materials, emergency preparedness and response, petroleum products management, and water and wastewater systems;

•Engaging with relevant stakeholders to consider and discuss the Company’s environmental management practices and environmental issues and concerns associated with our operations;

•Employing best practices, proven technologies, and safe operating standards for activities involving elevated environmental risk; and

•Planning and preparing for emergency responses to identify the appropriate steps to be taken in the event of a derailment, spill, or other incident involving a release to the environment.

The Company is subject to statutory and regulatory requirements across its network that address security concerns. The Company plays a critical role in the North American transportation system. Rail lines, facilities and equipment, including railcars carrying hazardous materials, could be direct targets or indirect casualties of terrorist attacks, actions by criminal and non-criminal organizations, and activities by individuals. Regulations by the U.S. Department of Transportation and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security include speed restrictions, chain of custody, and security measures, which can impact service and increase costs for the transportation of hazardous materials, especially materials that are toxic inhalation hazards ("TIH"). Regulations issued by TC under the TDGA have requirements for railway companies to take actions to mitigate security risks of transporting dangerous goods by rail.

 

The Company takes the following security measures:

•The Company employs its own police service that works closely with communities and other law enforcement and government agencies to promote railway safety and infrastructure security. As a railway law enforcement agency, the Company's Police Services have a central headquarters that

oversees police officers assigned to field offices responsible for railway police operations across its network. The Company's Police Services operate on the Company's rail network as well as in areas where the Company has non-railway operations;

•The Company's Corporate Security department is committed to providing a safe and secure work environment for the Company’s employees, contractors, visitors, and other authorized persons on the Company's property, and to protecting the Company’s assets, operations, information, the public and the environment from damage, interference, and undue liability. As part of this commitment, Corporate Security is responsible for: overseeing the security of the international supply chain and its requisite programs; providing training and awareness to employees and contractors; assessing the risk and vulnerability of the Company’s properties; establishing appropriate countermeasures to secure and protect the Company’s properties and assets; and engaging with customers and the public. Specifically, the Company employs the following to support these initiatives:

◦The Company’s Security Management Plan is a comprehensive, risk-based plan modelled on and developed in conjunction with the security plan prepared by the Association of American Railroads post-September 11, 2001. Under this plan, the Company routinely examines and prioritizes railway assets, physical and cyber vulnerabilities, and threats, as well as tests and revises measures to provide essential railway security; and

◦The Company’s Public Safety Communication Centre ("PSCC") operates 24 hours a day. PSCC receives reports of emergencies, dangerous or potentially dangerous conditions, and other safety and security issues from our employees, the public, and law enforcement and other government officials. PSCC notifies proper emergency responders and governing bodies; and

•To address cyber security risks, the Company’s Enterprise Security Department implements mitigation programs that evolve with the changing technology threat environment. The Company has also worked diligently to establish backup sites designed to provide a seamless transition in the event that the Company's operating systems are the target of a cyber-attack. By doing so, the Company expects to maintain network fluidity. Please see Item 1A. Risk Factors - The Company relies on technology and technological improvements to operate its business and Item 1C. Cybersecurity for further discussion.

Sustainability at the Company is rooted in a long-standing legacy of building for the future. We believe that integrating sustainability into our business processes is imperative to future growth and long-term success as an organization.

Through ongoing engagement across and beyond our organization, the Company continually refines our sustainability approach, including as part of our integration of KCS. Please see “Climate-Related Risks—Transition Risks" in Item 1A. Risk Factors for further discussion. We value feedback from our stakeholders, strive to learn from our performance and constantly challenge ourselves to improve our practices, including our sustainability disclosure practices.

In recent years, federal, provincial, state and international lawmakers and regulators have increased their focus on companies’ risk oversight, disclosures and practices in connection with climate change and other environmental, social, and sustainability matters. Recent legal developments with respect to such matters include the legislative and rule-making activities of securities regulatory authorities in Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. In addition, recently enacted or proposed environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") related statutes or regulations in certain U.S. states may impact the operations, preferences, activities and financial conditions of the Company and its customers and other stakeholders. We are monitoring these legal developments, as well as trends in climate and other ESG-related litigation and regulatory investigations, as well as their potential impact on the Company’s climate and other ESG-related activities (including its strategies, disclosure and risk management practices). Please see “Legal and Regulatory Risks” in Item 1A. Risk Factors for further discussion.

The Company has established a clear governance structure to effectively communicate and respond to relevant sustainability topics, while striving to be proactive in implementing its sustainability commitments and practices. The Board of Directors, through its committees, is responsible for the monitoring and oversight of the Company's key risks, strategies, and sustainability topics. The Risk and Sustainability Committee of the Board is responsible for reviewing ESG performance against sustainability objectives, as well as strategic plans and opportunities to align sustainability objectives with long-term climate strategy.

With oversight from the President and CEO of the Company, implementation of the Company’s sustainability objectives, including as they relate to climate change, is guided by a cross-functional executive Sustainability Steering Committee. Updates and progress reports on the Company's sustainability objectives and management approach to sustainability topics are regularly provided to the Risk and Sustainability Committee of the Board.

The Company published its first Climate Strategy in 2021, outlining our approach to managing potential climate-related impacts across the business.

The Company has taken action to support the execution of our carbon reduction efforts. In June 2023, the Company announced a consolidated 2030 locomotive GHG emissions reduction target using the Science Based Targets Initiative’s ("SBTi") sectoral-based approach for freight railroads and a well-below 2⁰C global warming scenario. The consolidated 2030 target for the Company's combined locomotive operations was validated by the SBTi.

To lead our focus on decarbonization, in 2022 we established a Carbon Reduction Task Force, composed of the Company’s engineers and operations experts. Reporting to the Sustainability Steering Committee, the Carbon Reduction Task Force evaluates, recommends, and implements climate action measures to reduce GHG emissions and drive performance in the direction of our science-based targets.

The Company also strives to advance implementation of our climate strategy by exploring carbon reduction opportunities that are aligned to the demands of our business. For example, the Company has developed North America’s first line-haul hydrogen-powered freight locomotive using fuel cells and batteries to power the locomotive’s electric traction motors. In 2024, the Company continued to advance our hydrogen locomotive program, with two converted hydrogen locomotives in service, two in the testing phase, and two additional locomotives that were in production and have since been completed. Additionally, the construction of two hydrogen production and refueling facilities were completed.

The Company is focused on attracting, developing, and retaining a resilient, high-performing workforce that delivers on providing service for our customers. The Company's culture is guided by the values of Accountability, Diversity, and Pride. Built on a bedrock of respect, these values drive our actions. Everything we do is grounded in precision scheduled railroading and our five foundations of Provide Service, Control Costs, Optimize Assets, Operate Safely, and Develop People.

A team of approximately 20,000 railroaders across North America underpins the Company’s success and brings value to our customers and shareholders. Accordingly, Develop People is one of the foundations of how we do business, illustrating our focus and energy towards empowering our people, providing an engaging culture, and cultivating an industry leading team.

An employee is defined by the Company as an individual currently engaged in full-time, part-time, or seasonal employment with the Company. The total number of employees as of December 31, 2024, was 19,797, a decrease of 130 compared to 19,927 as of December 31, 2023.

Workforce is defined as employees plus contractors and consultants. The total workforce as of December 31, 2024 was 19,924, a decrease of 114 compared to 20,038 as of December 31, 2023.

Class I railways are party to collective bargaining agreements with various labour unions. The majority of the Company's employees belong to labour unions and are subject to these agreements. The Company manages collaborative relationships with union members in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico.

Unionized employees represent nearly 73% of our workforce and are represented by 74 active bargaining units.

Within Canada, there are eight bargaining units representing approximately 7,100 Canadian unionized active employees. From time to time, we negotiate to renew collective agreements with various unionized groups of employees. In such cases, the collective agreements remain in effect until the bargaining process has been exhausted (pursuant to the Canada Labour Code). Three agreements are open for renewal of which two have been referred to binding Mediation/Arbitration (TCRC - T&E and TCRC - RCTC). A tentative agreement reached with United Steelworkers (Clerical and Intermodal) is subject to ratification. Collective bargaining has also resulted in recent agreements being ratified by the TCRC-Maintenance of Way Employees Division (Engineering) and Unifor (Mechanical). Agreements are in place with the other three bargaining units in Canada, of which two are effective until December 31, 2025, and one is in effect until December 31, 2026. Please see Item 1. Business - Business Developments for further discussion.

In the U.S., there are currently 65 active bargaining units on nine subsidiary railroads representing approximately 4,200 unionized active employees. We are actively negotiating 64 collective agreements with 62 of those agreements having recently opened for renewal on November 1, 2024.

In Mexico, approximately 3,200 of CPKCM's employees are covered by a single labour agreement. The compensation terms under this labour agreement are subject to renegotiation on an annual basis and all other benefits are subject to negotiation every two years. The current agreement terms will remain in effect until new terms have been negotiated in 2025.

CPKC is an industry leader in rail safety and we are committed to protecting our employees, our communities, our environment, and our customers’ goods. The Company finished the year with the lowest FRA-reportable train accident frequency among Class I railways for the second year in a row. This safety performance is building on Canadian Pacific's legacy of 17 consecutive years of industry leadership. Aside from mainline train operations, many of our employees work in yards, terminals, and shops across our network with machinery and heavy equipment, and often in extreme weather conditions. Our employees' safety is of utmost importance to the Company and through continuous improvement objectives in 2024 we have continued to look at ways to integrate and improve safety in these areas of our network operation. Operate Safely is one of the five foundations of our organization as a successful railroad and it starts at the door with our HomeSafe safety culture with knowing and following the rules accordingly. The FRA-reportable train accident and personal injury frequency rates are key metrics as part of the Company's annual incentive plan.

During 2024, we continued our roll out of HomeSafe and other initiatives to drive our safety culture across the entire CPKC network, tapping into the human side of safety and what it means to promote both safety engagement and constructive feedback. HomeSafe puts everyone on the same level of safety operation expectations and empowers all employees to begin a safety conversation, no matter their role or position. HomeSafe, Safety Walkabouts and other safety initiatives have been instrumental in maintaining a strong safety performance in 2024.

Our FRA-reportable personal injury incidents rate per 200,000 employee-hours decreased 18% to 0.95 (2023 - 1.16) and our FRA-reportable train accident rate per million train-miles decreased 5% to 1.01 (2023 - 1.06). The Company’s safety performance is disclosed publicly on a quarterly basis using standardized metrics set out by the FRA.

The Company’s talent management strategy is led by our Human Resources department, which oversees recruitment, development, engagement, and retention programs and processes. It is further supported by our executive led Leadership and Diversity Steering Committee. This Committee is comprised of CEO direct reports and is designed to cultivate and sustain a thriving, dynamic workforce and leadership team, both now and into the future.

As part of the Company's succession planning program, senior leaders are deeply involved in developing the pool of future leaders and ensuring robust development plans are in place. Succession plans are regularly presented to our Board of Directors, ensuring continuous oversight and strategic alignment.

The Management Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors plays a critical role in reviewing and informing the Company's compensation plans and programs.

Moreover, the Company maintains internal policies and processes related to recruitment, compensation, and diversity and inclusion. By implementing these policies and through ongoing workforce initiatives, we ensure that our talent attraction practices, employee and leadership development, succession planning, engagement, and fostering diversity and inclusion are consistent with our commitments, foundations, and values.

We employ a number of recruitment strategies and retention tactics to attract and retain talent across North America. The Company offers many rewarding career opportunities in a variety of roles within the organization in both operating and support functions. We base our recruitment strategy on workforce planning needs, and our goal is to have a diverse candidate pool to fill our open positions.

The Company recognizes the valuable skills and experience that veterans have gained from serving their country and we are proud to have earned the Military Friendly® designation in the U.S. We have also been named one of Alberta's Top 85 Employers for the sixth consecutive year.

The Company tracks recruitment performance and success rates to better understand which tactics, benefits, and strategic partnerships are most successful in bringing in and retaining new talent.

One of the Company’s five foundations is to Develop People. CPKC achieves this by providing its diverse workforce with an array of training and development opportunities.

Our strategy involves delivering specialized training, best practices, and skill-broadening opportunities to all employees. The Company offers a variety of training opportunities, including, but not limited to, technical/on-the-job training, role-specific offerings as well as optional courses. Training includes instructor-led in-person and virtual classes, blended, e-learning, and self-directed online learning.

Non-union employees also complete annual performance reviews with development action plans with their leaders to set individual goals tied to the Company's five foundations and track progress against Company expectations as well as career development goals. Additionally, the Company offers a robust set of leadership development programs to support employees' career growth.

The Company encourages all employees to take an active role in their career planning and development. We believe that investing in our employees leads to improved workplace morale and fosters a supportive working environment.

Diversity is one of our core values. We define diversity broadly, and believe that different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives enhance creativity and innovation and encourage diversity of thought in the workplace. We are continually working on programs and opportunities to attract, retain, and develop the best people and skill sets for the Company.

The Company recognizes the importance of Board member diversity as a critical component of objective oversight and continuous improvement. As of December 31, 2024, four of the 12 directors (33.3%) are women. Additionally, three of our male directors identify as a minority, which makes the majority of the Board of Directors (58.3%) members of "designated groups" as defined in the Employment Equity Act of Canada.

We pride ourselves on offering a diverse and inclusive workplace with a variety of career opportunities in both our corporate and field locations. We recruit and hire talent based on relevant skills and experience, and seek to attract the highest quality candidates regardless of gender, age, cultural heritage, or ethnic origin.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The risks set forth in the following risk factors could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity, and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the Company's forward-looking statements and forward-looking information (collectively, "forward-looking statements").

The information set forth in this Item 1A. Risk Factors should be read in conjunction with the rest of the information included in this annual report, including Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

As a common carrier, the Company is required by law to transport dangerous goods and hazardous materials, which could expose the Company to significant costs and claims. Railways, including the Company, are legally required to transport dangerous goods and hazardous materials as part of their common carrier obligations regardless of risk or potential exposure to loss. The Company transports dangerous goods and hazardous materials, including but not limited to crude oil, ethanol, and TIH materials such as chlorine gas and anhydrous ammonia. A train accident involving hazardous materials could result in significant claims against the Company arising from personal injury, property or natural resource damage, environmental penalties, and remediation obligations. Such claims, if insured, could exceed the existing insurance coverage commercially available to the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, operating results, and liquidity. The Company is also required to comply with rules and regulations regarding the handling of dangerous goods and hazardous materials across its network. Noncompliance with these rules and regulations can subject the Company to significant penalties and could factor in litigation arising out of a train accident. Changes to these rules and regulations could also increase operating costs, reduce operating efficiencies and impact service delivery.

The Company faces competition from other transportation providers and failure to compete effectively could adversely affect financial results. The Company faces significant competition for freight transportation across its network, including competition from other railways, motor carriers, ship and barge operators, and pipelines. Competition is based mainly on quality of service, freight rates, and access to markets. Other transportation modes generally use public rights-of-way that are built and maintained by government entities, while the Company and other railways must use internal resources to build and maintain their rail networks. Competition with the trucking industry is generally based on freight rates, flexibility of service, and transit time performance. Any future improvements or expenditures materially increasing the quality or reducing the cost of alternative modes of transportation, or legislation that eliminates or significantly reduces the burden of the size or weight limitations currently applicable to trucking carriers, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial results.

The operations of carriers with which the Company interchanges may adversely affect operations. The Company's ability to provide rail services to customers across its network also depends upon its ability to maintain cooperative relationships with connecting carriers with respect to, among other matters, revenue division, car supply and locomotive availability, data exchange and communications, reciprocal switching, interchange, and trackage rights. Deterioration in the operations or services provided by connecting carriers, or in the Company's relationship with those connecting carriers, could result in the Company's inability to meet customers' demands or require the Company to use alternate train routes, which could result in significant additional costs and network inefficiencies and adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

The Company may be affected by acts of terrorism, war, or risk of war. The Company plays a critical role in the North American transportation system and therefore could become the target for acts of terrorism or war. The Company is also involved in the transportation of hazardous materials, which could result in the Company's equipment or infrastructure being direct targets or indirect casualties of terrorist attacks. Acts of terrorism, or other similar events, any government response thereto, and war or risk of war could cause significant business interruption to the Company and may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

The Company is affected by fluctuating fuel prices. Fuel expense constitutes a significant portion of the Company’s operating costs. Fuel prices can be subject to dramatic fluctuations and significant price increases could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. The Company currently employs a fuel cost adjustment program to help reduce volatility in changing fuel prices, but the Company cannot be certain that it will always be able to fully mitigate rising or elevated fuel prices through this program. Factors affecting fuel prices include worldwide oil demand, international geopolitics, weather, refinery capacity, supplier and upstream outages, unplanned infrastructure failures, environmental and sustainability policies, and labour and political instability.

The Company relies on technology and technological improvements to operate its business. Although the Company devotes significant resources to protect its technology systems and proprietary data, there can be no assurance that the systems and processes we have designed to prevent or limit the effects of cyber incidents or attacks will be sufficient in averting such incidents or attacks. (Please see “Item 1C. Cybersecurity” for further discussion). The Company continually evaluates attackers’ techniques, tactics and motives, and strives to be diligent in its monitoring, training, planning, and prevention. However, due to the increasing sophistication of cyber-attacks and greater complexity within our IT supply chain, the Company may be unable to anticipate or implement appropriate preventive measures to detect and respond to a security breach.

This includes the rising rates of reported ransomware events, human error, or other cyber-attack methods disrupting the Company’s systems or the systems of third parties. If the Company or third parties whose technology systems we rely on were to experience a significant disruption or failure of one or more of their information technology or communications systems (either as a result of an intentional cyber or malicious act, or an unintentional error), it could result in significant service interruptions, safety failures or other operational difficulties such as: unauthorized access to confidential or other critical information or systems, loss of customers, financial losses, regulatory fines, and misuse or corruption of critical data and proprietary information, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity. The Company also may experience security breaches that could remain undetected for an extended period and, therefore, have a greater impact on the services we offer. In addition, if the Company is unable to acquire, develop or implement new technology, the Company may suffer a competitive disadvantage, which could also have an adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

The availability of qualified personnel could adversely affect the Company's operations. Changes in employee demographics, training requirements and the availability of qualified personnel, particularly locomotive engineers and trainpersons, could negatively impact the Company’s ability to meet demand for rail services. Unpredictable increases in the demand for rail services may increase the risk of having insufficient numbers of trained personnel, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. In addition, changes in operations and other technology improvements may significantly impact the number of employees required to meet the demand for rail services.

Strikes or work stoppages adversely affect the Company's operations. Class I railways are party to collective bargaining agreements with various labour unions. The majority of the Company's employees belong to labour unions and are subject to these agreements. Disputes with regard to the terms of these agreements or the Company's potential inability to negotiate mutually acceptable contracts with these unions, have resulted in, and could in the future result in, among other things, strikes, work stoppages, slowdowns, or lockouts, which could cause a significant disruption of the Company's operations and have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity. Additionally, future national labour agreements, or provisions of labour agreements related to health care, could significantly increase the Company's costs for health and welfare benefits, which could have a material adverse impact on its financial condition and liquidity.

The Company is subject to significant governmental legislation and regulation across different jurisdictions over commercial, operating and environmental, climate, sustainability and other matters. The requirements and expectations of regulators and stakeholders continue to evolve and diverge, and our ability to meet these requirements and expectations may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. The Company’s railway operations are subject to extensive federal laws, regulations and rules in the countries it operates. Operations are subject to economic and safety regulations in Canada primarily by the Agency and TC. The Company’s U.S. operations are subject to economic and safety regulation by the STB and the FRA. The Company’s Mexican operations are subject to economic and safety regulations by the SICT and ARTF. Any new rules from regulators could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and liquidity as well as its ability to invest in enhancing and maintaining vital infrastructure. Various other regulators, including the FRA, and the PHMSA, directly and indirectly affect the Company’s operations in areas such as health, safety, security, environmental and other matters. Together, the FRA and the PHMSA have broad jurisdiction over railroad operating standards and practices, including track, freight cars, locomotives, and hazardous materials requirements. In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has regulatory authority with respect to matters that impact the Company's properties and operations. Additional regulation of the rail industry by these regulators or federal and state or provincial legislative bodies, whether under new or existing laws, may result in increased capital expenditures and operating costs and could have a significant negative impact on the Company’s ability to determine prices for rail services and result in a material adverse effect in the future on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and liquidity in a particular year or quarter. This potential material adverse effect could also result in reduced capital spending on the Company’s rail network or in abandonment of lines.

In addition, these laws and regulations are evolving, and may impose differing or inconsistent requirements on us. For example, environmental, social and sustainability-related topics such as climate change and diversity, as well as companies’ actions and initiatives on such issues, have received significant attention from lawmakers, regulators and other stakeholders. Various governments, including the U.S. and Canadian federal governments, as well as local, regional provincial and state governments, have adopted or are considering legislation, regulation or policies on these topics, which may diverge from, or potentially conflict with, those in other jurisdictions. Compliance with such laws, regulations or policies, including any that may be adopted in the future, could, among other things, increase the costs of operating our businesses, reduce the demand for our products and services and impact the prices we charge our customers, any or all of which could adversely affect our results of operations. Failure to comply with any legislation, regulation or policy, including as a result of making good faith interpretations that may differ from those taken by enforcement authorities in relevant jurisdictions, could potentially result in substantial fines, criminal sanctions, reputational harm or operational changes. Moreover, our customers, shareholders, employees and other stakeholders have diverse and evolving expectations, demands and perspectives on various topics, including environmental, social and sustainability topics. We may not be able to meet the diverse expectations and demands of all of our stakeholders, which could harm our reputation, reduce customer demand for our products and services, and subject us to legal and operational risks.

The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations that may result in significant costs. The Company’s operations are subject to extensive federal, state, provincial (Canada) and local environmental laws and regulations, including those governing air pollutants, GHG emissions, management and remediation of historical contaminant sites, discharges to waters and the handling, storage, transportation, and disposal of waste and other materials. (Please see “Environmental Laws, Regulations and Strategies” and “Sustainability-Related Laws, Regulations and Strategies” in Item 1. Business for further discussion). Violation of these laws and regulations can result in significant fines and penalties, as well as other potential impacts on the Company’s operations. These laws can impose strict, and in some circumstances, joint and several liability on both current and former owners, and on operators of facilities. If the Company is found to have violated such laws or regulations or to have acted in a manner that is inconsistent with regulatory expectations, such a finding could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or operating results.

Such environmental liabilities may also be raised by adjacent landowners or third parties. In addition, in operating a railway, it is possible that releases of hazardous materials during derailments or other accidents may occur that could cause harm to human health or to the environment. Costs of remediation, damages and changes in regulations could materially affect the Company’s operating results and reputation. The Company has been, and may in the future be, subject to allegations or findings to the effect that it has violated, or is strictly liable under, environmental laws or regulations. The Company currently has obligations at existing sites for investigation, remediation and monitoring, and will likely have obligations at other sites in the future. The actual costs associated with both current and long-term liabilities may vary from the Company’s estimates due to a number of factors including, but not limited to changes in: the content or interpretation of environmental laws and regulations; required remedial actions; technology associated with site investigation or remediation; and the involvement and financial viability of other parties that may be responsible for portions of those liabilities. The Company’s Mexican operations are subject to Mexican federal and state laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment concerning, among other matters, emissions to the air, land, and water, and the handling of hazardous materials and wastes, and are also subject to the compliance with standards for water discharge, water supply, emissions, noise pollution, hazardous substances and transportation and handling of hazardous and solid waste. The Mexican government may bring administrative and criminal proceedings, impose economic sanctions against companies that violate environmental laws, and temporarily or even permanently close non-complying facilities.

The Company is subject to claims and litigation that could result in significant expenditures. Due to the nature of its operations, the Company is exposed to the potential for claims and litigation arising out of personal injury, property damage or freight damage, employment, labour contract or other commercial disputes, and environmental, climate or sustainability, or other liability. The Company accrues for potential losses in accordance with applicable accounting standards, based on ongoing assessments of the likelihood of an adverse result in a claim or litigation together with the monetary relief or other damages sought or potentially recoverable. Material changes to litigation trends, a significant rail or other incident or series of incidents involving freight damage or loss, property damage, personal injury, or environmental, climate or sustainability, or other liability, and other significant matters could have a material adverse impact to the Company's operations, reputation, financial position or liquidity.

Disruptions within the supply chain could negatively affect the Company's operational efficiencies and increase costs. The North American transportation system is integrated. The Company’s operations and service may be negatively impacted by service disruptions of other transportation links, such as ports, handling facilities, customer facilities, and other railways. A prolonged service disruption at one of these entities could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

The Company is dependent on certain key suppliers of core railway equipment and materials that could result in increased price volatility or significant shortages of materials, which could adversely affect results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity. Due to the complexity and specialized nature of core railway equipment and infrastructure (including rolling stock equipment, locomotives, rail and ties), there are a limited number of suppliers of rail equipment and materials available. Should these specialized suppliers cease production or experience capacity or supply shortages, this concentration of suppliers could result in the Company experiencing cost increases or difficulty in obtaining rail equipment and materials, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity. Additionally, the Company’s operations are dependent on the availability of diesel fuel. A significant fuel supply shortage arising from production decreases, increased demand in existing or emerging foreign markets, disruption of oil imports, disruption of domestic refinery production, damage to refinery or pipeline infrastructure, political unrest, war or other factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position, and liquidity in a particular year or quarter.

The Company may fail to realize the anticipated cost savings, growth opportunities and synergies and other benefits anticipated from the recent acquisition of KCS and is subject to continuing obligations under the STB’s final decision, which could adversely affect the Company’s business. On April 14, 2023, the Company assumed control of KCS. The success of the KCS acquisition will depend on, among other things, the Company’s ability to successfully integrate the business of KCS with the Company's other U.S. rail carrier subsidiaries in a manner that facilitates growth opportunities, realizes anticipated synergies, and achieves the projected cost savings, revenue growth and profitability targets of the combined businesses without adversely affecting current revenues and investments in future growth. There is a significant degree of difficulty and management distraction inherent in the process of integrating an acquisition, which may involve delays or additional and unforeseen expenses. Integration and other disruptions from the KCS acquisition may also disrupt the Company’s ongoing businesses. In connection with the integration of the CPKC 2024 ANNUAL REPORT / 19

KCS business, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs. These costs may exceed the savings and efficiencies the Company expects to achieve from the integration of the businesses.

In connection with the STB's March 15, 2023 final decision, the STB imposed a number of conditions, including among others (i) commitments by the combined company to keep gateways open on commercially reasonable terms and create no new bottlenecks, (ii) environmental-related conditions, (iii) data reporting and retention requirements, and (iv) a seven-year oversight period for the STB to monitor adherence to these conditions. In addition, the Company inherited conditions previously imposed by the STB on KCS in connection with various prior KCS acquisitions, including in relation to KCS’s commitment to keep the Laredo gateway open on commercially reasonable terms in connection with its prior acquisition of The Texas Mexican Railway. Furthermore, the STB has the authority to issue supplemental orders to address issues or concerns that may arise in the future. In addition, the final decision is subject to a pending petition for review in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Colombia Circuit by a coalition of communities in the Chicago area. Compliance with these conditions and orders, or revisions or additions to the conditions imposed by the STB, could impact the Company’s operations and cause the Company to incur significant expenses. If the Company is not able to successfully achieve its objectives from the KCS acquisition within the anticipated time frame, or at all, the anticipated benefits may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected, which may adversely affect the Company’s business.

The Mexican concession of CPKCM is subject to revocation or termination in certain circumstances, which would prevent CPKCM from conducting rail operations under the Concession and would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. CPKCM operates under the Concession granted by the Mexican government for a period of 50 years which is renewable under certain conditions, for additional periods, each up to 50 years. The Concession gives CPKCM exclusive rights to provide freight transportation services over its rail lines through 2037 (the first 40 years of the 50-year Concession), subject to certain trackage and haulage rights granted to other freight rail concessionaires, and subject to trackage and haulage rights afforded to concessionaires of concessions that may be granted by the SICT to provide passenger rail service in the future.

The SICT and ARTF, which are principally responsible for regulating railroad services in Mexico, have broad powers to monitor CPKCM’s compliance with the Concession, and they can require CPKCM to supply them with any technical, administrative and financial information they request. Among other obligations, CPKCM must comply with the investment commitments established in its business plan, which forms an integral part of the Concession, and must update the plan every three years. The SICT treats CPKCM’s business plans confidentially. The SICT and ARTF also monitor CPKCM’s compliance with efficiency and safety standards established in the Concession. The SICT and ARTF review, and may amend, these standards from time to time. COFECE also has the authority to regulate railroad service in Mexico, having powers to monitor compliance with the antitrust laws as well as to investigate and determine remedies for anticompetitive practices.

Under the Concession, CPKCM has the right to operate its rail lines, but it does not own the land, roadway or associated structures. If the Mexican government legally terminates the Concession, it would own, control, and manage such public domain assets used in the operation of CPKCM’s rail lines. All other property not covered by the Concession, including all locomotives and railcars otherwise acquired, would remain CPKCM’s property. In the event of early termination, or total or partial revocation of the Concession, the Mexican government would have the right to cause the Company to lease all service related assets to it for a term of at least one year, automatically renewable for additional one-year terms for up to five years. The amount of rent would be determined by experts appointed by CPKCM and the Mexican government. The Mexican government must exercise this right within four months after early termination or revocation of the Concession.

In addition, the Mexican government would also have a right of first refusal with respect to certain transfers by CPKCM of railroad equipment within 90 days after revocation of the Concession. The Mexican government may also temporarily seize control of CPKCM’s rail lines and its assets in the event of a natural disaster, war, significant public disturbance or imminent danger to the domestic peace or economy. In such a case, the SICT may restrict CPKCM’s ability to operate under the Concession in such manner as the SICT deems necessary under the circumstances, but only for the duration of any of the foregoing events. Mexican law requires that the Mexican government pay compensation if it effects a statutory appropriation for reasons of the public interest. With respect to a temporary seizure due to any cause other than international war, the Mexican Regulatory Railroad Service Law and regulations provide that the Mexican government will indemnify an affected concessionaire for an amount equal to damages caused and losses suffered. However, these payments may not be sufficient to compensate CPKCM for its losses and may not be made timely.

The SICT may revoke the Concession if CPKCM is sanctioned for the same cause at least three times within a period of five years for any of the following: unjustly interrupting the operation of its rail lines or rendering its public services for charging rates higher than those it has registered with the ARTF; unlawfully restricting the ability of other Mexican rail operators to use its rail lines; failing to make payments for damages caused during the performance of services; failing to comply with any term or condition of the Mexican Regulatory Railroad Service Law and regulations or the Concession; failing to make the capital investments required under its three-year business plan filed with the SICT; or failing to maintain an obligations compliance bond and insurance coverage as specified in the Mexican Regulatory Railroad Service Law and regulations. In addition, the Concession would terminate automatically if CPKCM changes its nationality or assigns or creates any lien on the Concession, or if there is a change in control of CPKCM without the SICT’s approval.

The SICT may also terminate the Concession as a result of CPKCM’s surrender of its rights under the Concession, or for reasons of public interest or upon CPKCM’s liquidation or bankruptcy. If the Concession is terminated or revoked by the SICT for any reason, CPKCM would receive no compensation and its interest in its rail lines, and all other fixtures covered by the Concession, as well as all improvements made by it, would revert to the Mexican government. Revocation or termination of the Concession could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

The Company’s ownership of CPKCM and operations in Mexico subject it to Mexican economic and political risks. The Mexican government has exercised, and continues to exercise, significant influence over the Mexican economy. Accordingly, Mexican governmental actions and policies concerning the economy and state-owned enterprises, including with respect to taxes, salaries, pension, transport and similar services, as well as other political events in Mexico could have a significant impact on Mexican private sector entities in general and on CPKCM’s operations in particular. For example, CPKCM operations could be impacted with the introduction of new legislation or policies to regulate the railway industry, the energy market, or labour and tax conditions. The Company cannot predict the impact that the political landscape, including multiparty rule, social unrest and civil disobedience, will have on the Mexican economy or CPKCM’s operations. For example, from time to time, teachers' protests in Mexico have resulted in service interruptions on CPKCM’s right of ways. The Company’s consolidated financial statements and prospects may be adversely affected by currency fluctuations, inflation, interest rates, regulation, taxation and other political, social and economic developments in or affecting Mexico. For example, the Company has a tax contingency related to an audit assessment, which is currently in litigation, for the CPKCM 2014 Mexico tax return. An adverse resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements in a particular quarter or period. Tax contingencies are further discussed in Notes 6 and 25 of Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

The social and political situation in Mexico could adversely affect the Mexican economy and CPKCM’s operations, and changes in laws, public policies, regulations and government programs, including measures related to new or increased taxes, could be enacted, each of which could also have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Mexican economy in the past has suffered balance of payment deficits and shortages in FX reserves. Although Mexico has imposed foreign exchange controls in the past, there are currently no exchange controls in Mexico. Any restrictive exchange control policy could adversely affect the Company’s ability to obtain U.S. dollars or to convert Mexican pesos into dollars for purposes of making payments. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Downturns in the United States economy or in trade between the United States and Asia or Mexico and fluctuations in the peso-dollar exchange rates could have material adverse effects on the Company’s results of operations. The level and timing of the Company’s Mexican business activity is heavily dependent upon the level of United States-Mexican trade and the effects of current or future multinational trade agreements on such trade. The Mexican operations depend on the United States and Mexican markets for the products CPKCM transports, the relative position of Mexico and the United States in these markets at any given time, and tariffs or other barriers to trade. Failure to preserve trade provisions conducive to trade, or any other action imposing import duties or border taxes, could negatively impact our customers and the volume of rail shipments, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

Downturns in the United States or Mexican economies or in trade between the United States and Mexico could have material adverse effects on the Company’s results of operations and the Company’s ability to meet debt service obligations. In addition, the Company has invested significant amounts in developing its intermodal operations, including the Port of Lázaro Cárdenas, in part to provide Asian importers with an alternative to the west coast ports of the United States, and the level of intermodal traffic depends, to an extent, on the volume of Asian shipments routed through Lázaro Cárdenas. Reductions in trading volumes, which may be caused by factors beyond the Company’s control, including increased government regulations regarding the safety and quality of Asian-manufactured products, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

Additionally, fluctuations in the peso-dollar exchange rates could lead to shifts in the types and volumes of Mexican imports and exports. Although a decrease in the level of exports of some of the commodities that CPKCM transports to the United States may be offset by a subsequent increase in imports of other commodities CPKCM hauls into Mexico and vice versa, any offsetting increase might not occur on a timely basis, if at all. Future developments in United States-Mexican trade beyond the Company’s control may result in a reduction of freight volumes or in an unfavourable shift in the mix of products and commodities CPKCM carries.

Extreme volatility in the peso-dollar exchange rate may result in disruption of the international foreign exchange markets and may limit the ability to transfer or convert Mexican pesos into U.S. dollars. Although the Mexican government currently does not restrict, and for many years has not restricted, the right or ability of Mexican or foreign persons or entities to convert pesos into U.S. dollars or to transfer foreign currencies out of Mexico, the Mexican government could, as in the past, institute restrictive exchange rate policies that could limit the ability to transfer or convert pesos into U.S. dollars or other currencies for the purpose of making timely payments and meeting contractual commitments. Fluctuations in the peso-dollar exchange rates also have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. A weakening of the peso against the U.S. dollar would cause reported peso-denominated revenues and expenses to decrease, and could increase reported foreign exchange loss due to the Company’s net monetary assets that are peso-denominated. Exchange rate variations also affect the calculation of taxes under Mexican income tax law, and a weakening of the peso against the U.S. dollar could cause an increase in the Company’s cash tax obligation and effective income tax rate.

Climate change presents both physical and transition risks to our business. A summary of climate-related risks that could adversely affect our business, operations and financial results is discussed below.

Changing climate conditions, severe weather or natural disasters could result in significant business interruptions and costs to the Company. The Company is exposed to severe weather conditions and natural disasters, including earthquakes, volcanism, hurricanes, tropical storms, tornadoes, floods, fires, avalanches, mudslides, extreme temperatures, and significant precipitation that have caused track outages, severe damage to infrastructure, and business interruptions that have adversely affected the Company’s entire rail network. These events have resulted and can result in substantial costs to respond during the event and recover following the event. Costs can include modifications to existing infrastructure or implementation of new infrastructure to prevent future impacts to our business.

Impacts from these types of events are highly variable based on the severity and length of the event and scope of network impact. Climate-related changes such as rising mean temperatures and severe weather events can increase physical climate risk potentially compounding impacts to the business and operations. Such events have had and in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

Insurance maintained by the Company to protect against loss of business and other related consequences resulting from these natural occurrences is subject to coverage limitations, depending on the nature of the risk insured. This insurance may not be sufficient to cover all of the Company's damages or damages to others, and may not continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates. Even with insurance, if any natural occurrence leads to a catastrophic interruption of services, the Company may not be able to restore services without a significant interruption in operations.

The Company has established a GHG emissions reduction target, and may establish updated or new targets in the future to guide the implementation of the Company's carbon reduction efforts. The Company's inability to achieve our sustainability goals, including the current GHG emissions reduction target or any future targets we may establish could negatively impact the Company, including both our reputation and financial results. The Company has established a science-based GHG emissions reduction target (please see “Sustainability-Related Laws, Regulations and Strategies—Climate Change” in Item 1. Business for further discussion). Our current GHG emissions reduction target and any future GHG emissions reduction targets we may establish are subject to a number of risks, assumptions and uncertainties that include, but are not limited to: changes in carbon markets; evolving sustainability strategies and scientific, methodological or technological developments, including future investments in and the availability of GHG emissions-reduction tools and technologies, shifts in the science, data, methodology and legal and financial considerations underlying our climate and sustainability-related analysis and strategy, including those developed and used by organizations such as SBTi, the ability of the Company to successfully implement its climate and sustainability-related strategies and initiatives (including actions and plans undertaken by the Company to reduce GHG emissions), significant changes in the Company's GHG emissions profile as a result of changes to its railway asset base, the Company's ability to work with governments and third parties to mitigate the impacts of climate change, domestic and international economic conditions, including exchange rates, the effects of competition and regulation, uncertainties in the financial markets, capital spending, actions of vendors, the willingness of customers to acquire our services, cost of network expansion, maintenance and retrofits, and physical impact of climate change on our business. In addition, the accuracy, consistency and usefulness of climate or sustainability-related data (including data underlying our current or future targets and their baselines) could be impacted by a number of factors, including the accuracy of the assumptions in the science-based methodology used to calculate this data, improvement in our data collection and measuring systems, activities such as joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions or divestitures, and industry-driven changes to methodologies. Further, as we continue to integrate KCS, we are conducting additional data-gathering and intend to further assess the climate and sustainability strategies and initiatives for the combined company, and may make changes to our existing strategies and initiatives as a result.

As a result of these and other factors, we may not achieve our current GHG emissions reduction target or any future GHG emissions reduction targets we may establish or do so in a manner that meets standards and expectations developed by third parties such as SBTi. We cannot assure that the Company's current or future plans to reduce GHG emissions will be viable or successful. In addition, there can be no assurance that our shareholders and other stakeholders will agree with our goals and strategies or be satisfied with our efforts to attain such goals. Moreover, any perception, whether or not valid, that we have failed to act responsibly with respect to such matters, failed (or may fail) to achieve our goals or to effectively respond to new or additional legal or regulatory requirements, could adversely affect our business, reputation, and exposure to legal risks. As a result, there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully achieve our sustainability goals, which could damage our reputation and customer and other stakeholder relationships and have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

An escalating price on carbon emissions could materially increase direct costs related to fuel purchases and indirect expenses related to purchased goods, materials, and electricity required to operate our business. As a fuel-intensive operation, the Company is exposed to both emerging and escalating carbon pricing regulations. The Company is regulated under multiple carbon taxation systems and cap and trade market mechanisms in the Canadian provinces in which we operate. The Company's Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions generated through our operations in Canada and Mexico are impacted by carbon pricing mechanisms.

The Company is further exposed to carbon pricing through electricity purchases, where electric utilities pass on carbon costs to customers. Introduction of, or changes to, regulations by government bodies in response to climate change that increase the cost of carbon emissions could result in a significant increase in expenses and could adversely affect our business performance, results of operations, financial position, and liquidity.

Please see “Sustainability-Related Laws, Regulations and Strategies” in Item 1. Business for further discussion of climate- and other sustainability-related laws and regulations (including the rulemaking activities of securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the United States) that could materially affect the Company’s operating results, financial condition, and reputation.

A number of the sectors the Company serves have the potential to be significantly impacted by climate-related transitional risks, including increased regulations, technology changes, and shifts in consumer preferences. The Company’s business is based on transporting a wide variety of commodities from suppliers to the marketplace. The Company regularly transports energy commodities that serve refineries, processing locations, and end-users across North America and global markets. The Company’s business lines include thermal and metallurgical coal, petroleum coke, crude oil and petroleum products, including liquefied petroleum gas, fuel oil, asphalt, gasoline, condensate (diluent), and lubricant oils.

Shifting consumer demand to lower-carbon products and increased climate-focused regulations, such as carbon pricing and fuel regulations, may instigate a broad transition in the energy sector. Programs that place a price on carbon emissions or other government restrictions on certain market sectors may further impact current and potential freight rail customers in the energy sector. A comprehensive transition in the energy sector could significantly impact the markets of the Company's energy customers or lead to market differentiation through geographic variation in policies and demand trends. A portion of the Company’s business could be materially affected by potential future changes and instability that may be related to such a transition.

Please see “Sustainability-Related Laws, Regulations and Strategies” in Item 1. Business for further discussion of climate- and other sustainability-related laws, regulations and other legal developments that could materially affect the preferences, activities, and financial conditions of our customers and other stakeholders, as well as the Company’s operating results, financial condition, and reputation.

Changes in global economic conditions, international trade policies, and public health conditions could negatively affect demand for commodities and other freight transported by the Company. A decline or disruption in domestic, cross-border, or global economic conditions, including fluctuations in interest rates and changes to international trade policies and tariffs, that affect the supply or demand for commodities that the Company transports may decrease the Company’s freight volumes. This could result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial or operating results and liquidity. Economic conditions resulting in bankruptcies of one or more large customers could have a significant impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and liquidity in a particular year or quarter.

The Company is also subject to outbreaks of infectious disease, such as risks related to pandemics, which can have adverse impacts on economic and market conditions and the Company's business. Public health crises, including pandemics, have created, and in the future may create, significant volatility, uncertainty, and economic disruption in the regions in which the Company operates and therefore adversely affect the Company's business.

The state of capital markets could adversely affect the Company's liquidity. Weakness in the capital and credit markets could negatively impact the Company’s access to capital. From time to time, the Company relies on the capital markets to provide some of its capital requirements, including the issuance of long-term debt instruments and commercial paper. Significant instability or disruptions of the capital markets and the credit markets, or deterioration of the Company's financial condition due to internal or external factors could restrict or eliminate the Company's access to, and/or significantly increase the cost of, various financing sources, including bank credit facilities and issuance of corporate bonds. Instability or disruptions of the capital markets and deterioration of the Company's financial condition, alone or in combination, could also result in a reduction in the Company's credit rating to below investment grade, which could also further prohibit or restrict the Company from accessing external sources of short-term and long-term debt financing, and/or significantly increase the associated costs.

The Company's indebtedness may pose risks and/or intensify existing risks. As at December 31, 2024, we have $22,623 million of indebtedness.

The foregoing indebtedness, as well as any additional indebtedness we may incur, could have the effect, among other things, of reducing our liquidity and may limit our flexibility in responding to other business opportunities and increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions.

Our ability to make payments of principal and interest on our indebtedness depends upon our future performance, which will be subject to general economic, financial and business conditions, and other factors affecting our operations, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, we may be required to redeem all of the outstanding 2.450% notes due 2031 and 3.000% notes due 2041 pursuant to a special mandatory redemption requirement of those notes, which could have a significant adverse impact on the business and financial condition of the Company.

Our increased indebtedness could also reduce funds available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes and may create competitive disadvantages relative to other companies with lower debt levels. If we do not achieve the expected benefits and cost savings from the KCS combination, or if the financial performance of the combined company does not meet current expectations, then our ability to service our indebtedness may be adversely impacted.

The agreements that govern our indebtedness contain various affirmative and negative covenants that may, subject to certain customary exceptions, restrict our ability to, among other things, create liens over our property, change our line of business and/or merge or consolidate with any other person or sell or convey certain of our assets to another person. In addition, some of the agreements that govern our debt financings contain a financial covenant that requires us to maintain certain financial ratios. Various risks, uncertainties and events beyond our control could affect our ability to comply with these covenants and failure to comply with them could result in an event of default, which, if not cured or waived, could accelerate our repayment obligations. Under these circumstances, we may not have sufficient funds or other resources to satisfy all of our obligations.

Moreover, we may be required to raise substantial additional financing to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate requirements. Our ability to arrange additional financing or refinancing will depend on, among other factors, our financial position and performance, as well as prevailing market conditions and other factors beyond our control. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing or refinancing on terms acceptable to us or at all.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

CPKC’s cybersecurity risk management program is an integrated and essential component of the Company’s overall risk management strategy. Through its Security Management Plan, CPKC maintains a comprehensive, risk-based plan that is modelled on and was developed in conjunction with the security plan prepared by the Association of American Railroads post-September 11, 2001. This plan also covers regulatory requirements such as TSA Cyber Security Directives and auditing requirements. Under this plan, the Company routinely examines and prioritizes cyber vulnerabilities and threats while also testing and revising protective measures for its assets and operations, both physical or cyber. Likewise, the Company’s cybersecurity risk management program entails real-time review and monitoring of CPKC’s cyber-risk exposures and implements strategic processes to manage those risks.

The Company's cybersecurity program utilizes the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework as its foundation. Accordingly, CPKC’s program includes periodic risk assessments, penetration testing by a third-party, audit participation, employee and contractor training, and the implementation of technologies to assist in mitigating cybersecurity risks and harms. Incident response procedures, including escalation procedures, are designed, implemented, and periodically tested to assist the Company in detecting, responding to, and recovering from a potential cybersecurity incident, and making any timely notification or disclosure that may be required under the circumstances. The Company scopes the third-party penetration tests as real-world attacks against perimeter defenses and internal processes such as social engineering and phishing.

The Company's cybersecurity risk management program also includes ongoing threat research and analysis conducted with the assistance of third parties, including on emerging threat attack vectors, tactics, actors and motivations. The Company also engages in ongoing network monitoring and has implemented a vulnerability management and patching program. Further, CPKC employs structured vetting and ongoing risk management processes to identify and mitigate cyber risks associated with the use of third-party service providers, including specifically in the area of technology.

To date, risks arising from cybersecurity threats have not materially affected the Company, its results of its operations, or its financial condition. However, the Company also recognizes the reality of the ever-evolving cyber risk landscape faced by industries and businesses across the world. Depending on their source and nature, cyber incidents could in the future materially affect CPKC and its operations, and financial condition.

See “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K for further information about information and cybersecurity risk.

The Board of Directors oversees the work of all its committees, including the Audit and Finance Committee. The Audit and Finance Committee is responsible for, among other things, overseeing the Company’s financial disclosures and its internal and external audit functions, maintaining the integrity of financial reporting and internal controls, and providing stewardship and guidance to management in its approach to the assessment and mitigation of cybersecurity risks. The Chief Information Officer ("CIO") provides annual and periodic updates to the Audit and Finance Committee and the Board of Directors on cybersecurity risks and the Company’s strategy for mitigating such risks. Additionally, the Chief Information Security Officer ("CISO") briefs the Audit and Finance Committee periodically. The Audit and Finance Committee also receives updates on information systems and cybersecurity audit and advisory engagements from the Chief Internal Auditor.

The CISO reports directly to the CIO and is responsible for:

•Overseeing and implementing CPKC's cybersecurity strategy;

•Aligning cybersecurity objectives with the overall business objectives;

•Ensuring compliance with regulatory directives related to cybersecurity;

•Promoting a cybersecurity culture through comprehensive awareness and training programs; and

•Managing and coordinating incident response activities.

The Company's cybersecurity risk management program is supervised by the Managing Director of Enterprise Security who reports directly to the CISO. The CIO and CISO regularly update senior leadership and the executive committee on cybersecurity risks.

The CISO, CIO, and certain members of their management team who are involved in implementing the Company's cybersecurity program possess expertise in cybersecurity risk management. Our CISO and CIO each have many years of experience in designing and implementing cybersecurity frameworks and working to mitigate cyber threats. Among other qualifications, certain members of the CISO's and CIO's management team also have certifications as a CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) and CISM (Certified Information Security Manager).

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company operates on a network of approximately 20,000 miles of main track, of which the Company accesses 3,300 miles under trackage rights. The Company's track network represents the size of the Company's operations that connects markets, customers, and other railways. The Company’s network accesses the U.S. markets directly through five wholly-owned subsidiaries: Soo Line Railroad Company (“Soo Line”), a Class I railway operating in the U.S. Midwest; the Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern Railroad ("DM&E"), which operates in the U.S. Midwest; Delaware & Hudson Railway Company, Inc., which operates between eastern Canada and the U.S. Northeast; the Central Maine & Quebec Railway U.S. Inc., which operates in the U.S. Northeast, and the Kansas City Southern Railway Company, which operates in the central and south-central U.S. KCS indirectly owns CPKCM which operates in northeastern and central Mexico and the port cities of Lázaro Cárdenas, Veracruz, Altamira and Tampico.

The Company’s network in Canada covers approximately 8,400 miles and extends from the Port of Vancouver on Canada’s Pacific Coast to the Port of Montréal, and eastern Québec and to the Port of Saint John via a haulage agreement. The U.S. network covers approximately 8,800 miles and extends through industrial centres of Chicago, Illinois; Detroit, Michigan; Buffalo and Albany, New York; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Kansas City, Missouri; and to the U.S. Gulf Coast with port access at Port Arthur, Texas, New Orleans, Louisiana, and Mobile, Alabama via agreement. The Company’s network in Mexico extends approximately 3,100 miles from the Laredo, Texas border crossing through Mexico City, with port access at Lázaro Cárdenas, Veracruz, Altamira, and Tampico.

At December 31, 2024, the breakdown of the Company's operated track miles is as follows:

The Company operates numerous facilities including: terminals for intermodal, transload, automotive and other freight; classification rail yards for train-building and switching, storage-in-transit and other activities; offices to administer and manage operations; dispatch centres to direct traffic on the rail network; crew quarters to house train crews along the rail line; shops and other facilities for fuelling, maintenance and repairs of locomotives; and facilities for maintenance of freight cars and other equipment. The Company continues to invest in terminal upgrades and new facilities to accommodate incremental growth in volumes. Typically in all of our major yards, the Company's Police Services has offices to ensure the safety and security of the yards and operations.

The Company's equipment includes: owned and leased locomotives and railcars; heavy maintenance equipment and machinery; other equipment and tools in our shops, offices and facilities; and vehicles for maintenance, transportation of crews, and other activities. In this section, owned equipment includes units acquired by the Company, equipment leased to third parties, units held under finance leases, and equipment leased to the Company under 26 / CPKC 2024 ANNUAL REPORT

short-term or long-term operating leases.

The Company’s locomotive fleet is comprised of largely high-adhesion alternating current line haul locomotives that are more fuel efficient and reliable and have superior hauling capacity as compared with standard direct current locomotives. The Company has entered into locomotive leases in the past to ensure there is appropriate capacity to meet market demand. The Company’s locomotive productivity, defined as the daily average GTMs divided by daily average operating horsepower, for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, was 165 and 171 GTMs per operating horsepower, respectively. Operating horsepower excludes units offline, tied up or in storage, or in use on other railways, and includes foreign units online. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had 257 locomotives in storage. As of December 31, 2024, the Company owned or leased the following locomotive units: 

The Company’s average in-service utilization percentage for freight cars, for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, was 79% and 81%, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Company owned and leased the following freight cars:

As of December 31, 2024, the Company owned and leased the following units of intermodal equipment:

The Company's global headquarters in Calgary, Alberta is a multi-building campus encompassing the head office building, a data centre, training facility, and other office and operational buildings. The Company’s U.S. headquarters is located in Kansas City while Mexican headquarters are located in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon and Mexico City.

The Company's main dispatch centre is located in Calgary, and is the primary dispatching facility in Canada. Rail traffic controllers coordinate and dispatch crews, and manage the day-to-day locomotive management across the network, 24 hours a day, and seven days a week. The operations centre has a complete backup system in the event of any power disruption. 

In addition to fully operational redundant systems, the Company has a fully integrated Business Continuity Centre, should the Company's operations centre be affected by any natural disaster, fire, cyber-attack, or hostile threat.

The Company also maintains dispatch centres in the U.S. and Mexico, located in Kansas City and Monterrey, respectively, to service the dispatching needs of locomotive and train crews working in the U.S. and Mexico, respectively.

The Company incurs expenditures to expand and enhance its rail network, rolling stock, and other infrastructure. These expenditures are aimed at improving efficiency and safety of our operations. Such investments are also an integral part of the Company's multi-year capital program and support growth initiatives.

In 2024, the Company invested in capital expenditures of $2,825 million (2023 - $2,468 million), up 14% from the prior year mainly as a result of assets acquired as part of the KCS acquisition. For further details, refer to Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Refer to Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 16 Debt, for information on the Company's finance lease obligations and assets held as collateral under these agreements.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

For further details, refer to Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 25 Commitments and contingencies.

SEC regulations require the disclosure of any proceeding under environmental laws to which a government authority is a party unless the registrant reasonably believes it will not result in sanctions over a certain threshold. The Company uses a threshold of U.S. $1 million for the purposes of determining proceedings requiring disclosure.

From time to time, the Company or its subsidiaries may be subject to information requests from U.S. State or Federal environmental regulatory authorities inquiring as to the Company’s compliance or remediation practices in the U.S. In September 2020, the Company received an initial request for information from the EPA inquiring into the Company’s compliance with the mobile source provisions of the Clean Air Act (“CAA”). The Company has been providing information in response to the EPA’s initial and follow-up requests, and the EPA has issued Notices of Violations, which preliminarily identify certain categories of alleged non-compliance with civil provisions of the CAA pertaining to locomotives and locomotive engines. In December 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) sent a communication requesting a meeting with the Company to discuss potentially resolving any alleged noncompliance which included an initial draft consent decree from the DOJ. That initial meeting occurred in January 2023 and communications are ongoing. Neither the EPA nor the DOJ has issued a final compendium of alleged violations, demand for corrective or mitigating actions, or articulated a preliminary civil penalty assessment, and it remains too early to provide a fulsome evaluation of the likely outcome with respect to either the nature of any alleged violations or the amount of any potential civil penalty. The Company will continue to fully cooperate and engage in discussions to resolve the matter.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to enhance a reader’s understanding of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, and other information in this annual report. Except where otherwise indicated, all financial information reflected herein is expressed in Canadian dollars. The following section generally discusses 2024 and 2023 items and comparisons between 2024 and 2023. Discussions of 2022 items and comparisons between 2023 and 2022 that are not included in this Form 10-K can be found in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II, Item 7, of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

For purposes of this report, unless the context indicates otherwise, all references herein to “CPKC”, “the Company”, “we”, “our” and “us” refer to Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited ("CPKC") and its subsidiaries, which includes Kansas City Southern ("KCS") as a consolidated subsidiary on and from April 14, 2023 (the "Control Date"). Prior to the Control Date, the Company's 100% interest in KCS was accounted for and reported as an equity-method investment.

•Total revenues were $14,546 million, an increase of 16% compared to $12,555 million in 2023. The increase was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition, higher volumes as measured by revenue ton-miles ("RTMs"), and higher freight revenue per RTM.

•Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") was $3.98, a decrease of 5% compared to $4.21 in 2023.

•Core adjusted combined diluted EPS was $4.25, an increase of 11% compared to $3.84 in 2023.

•Operating ratio was 64.4%, a 60 basis point improvement from 65.0% in 2023.

•Core adjusted combined operating ratio was 61.3%, a 70 basis point improvement from 62.0% in 2023.

Core adjusted combined diluted EPS and Core adjusted combined operating ratio are defined and reconciled in the "Non-GAAP Measures" section of this Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

These key measures are used by management in the planning process to facilitate decisions that continue to drive further productivity improvements in the Company's operations. These key measures reflect how effective the Company’s management is at controlling costs and executing the Company’s operating plan and strategy. Continued monitoring of these key measures enables the Company to take appropriate actions to deliver superior service and grow its business at low incremental cost.

A GTM is defined as the movement of one ton of train weight over one mile. GTMs are calculated by multiplying total train weight by the distance the train moved. Total train weight comprises the weight of the freight cars, their contents, and any inactive locomotives. An increase in GTMs indicates additional workload. The increase in GTMs was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition and higher volumes of Grain, Energy, chemicals and plastics, Potash, Automotive, and Intermodal. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of Metals, minerals and consumer products and Coal.

Train miles are defined as the sum of the distance moved by all trains operated on the network. Train miles provide a measure of the productive utilization of our network. A smaller increase in train miles relative to increases in volumes, as measured by RTMs, and/or workload, as measured by GTMs, indicates improved train productivity. The increase in train miles reflected the impact of a 12% increase in workload (GTMs) and a 2% decrease in average train weights, which was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition.

Fuel efficiency is defined as U.S. gallons of locomotive fuel consumed per 1,000 GTMs. Fuel consumed includes gallons from freight, yard and commuter service but excludes fuel used in capital projects and other non-freight activities. An improvement in fuel efficiency indicates operational cost savings. The decrease in 2024 fuel efficiency was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition.

An employee is defined as an individual currently engaged in full-time, part-time, or seasonal employment with the Company. The Company monitors employment and workforce levels in order to efficiently meet service and strategic requirements. The number of employees is a key driver to total compensation and benefits costs. The increase in the average number of total employees was primarily due to the acquisition of KCS.

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from transporting freight. Changes in freight volumes generally contribute to corresponding changes in Freight revenues and certain variable expenses such as fuel, equipment rents, and crew costs. Non-freight revenues are generated from leasing certain assets, interline switching, and other arrangements including contracts with passenger service operators, subsurface and mineral rights agreements, and logistical services.

The increase in Freight revenues was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $1,375 million, higher volumes as measured by RTMs, and higher freight revenue per RTM. The increase in Non-freight revenues was primarily related to a subsurface fibre optic agreement, the impact of the KCS acquisition of $21 million, and higher leasing revenues.

RTMs are defined as the movement of one revenue-producing ton of freight over a distance of one mile. RTMs measure the relative weight and distance of rail freight moved by the Company. The increase in RTMs was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition and higher volumes of Grain, Energy, chemicals and plastics, Potash, Automotive, and Intermodal, partially offset by lower volumes of Metals, minerals and consumer products and Coal.

Freight revenue per RTM is defined as freight revenue per revenue-producing ton of freight over a distance of one mile. This is an indicator of yield. The increase in freight revenue per RTM was primarily due to higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in foreign exchange ("FX") of $94 million, partially offset by the unfavourable impact of lower fuel prices on fuel surcharge revenues of $184 million.

The increase in Grain revenue was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition, higher volumes of U.S. corn to the U.S. Pacific Northwest, higher volumes of U.S. soybeans and wheat and Canadian grain to Mexico, and an increase in freight revenue per RTM. This increase was partially offset by the unfavourable impact of lower fuel prices on fuel surcharge revenue. Freight revenue per RTM increased due to higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in FX. RTMs increased more than carloads due to moving higher volumes of U.S. grain from the U.S. Midwest to the U.S. Pacific Northwest and Mexico, which have longer lengths of haul.
