User Image DonCorleone77 Posted - 1 day ago

$NSC Norfolk Southern reports Q1 adjusted EPS $2.49, consensus $2.58 Reports Q1 revenue $3B, consensus $3.05B. "In the first quarter, we delivered an adjusted operating ratio in line with our guidance, which called for a seasonal increase of 100-200 basis points sequentially from the fourth quarter," said Norfolk Southern President and Chief Executive Officer Alan Shaw. "We achieved this result despite macroeconomic challenges and the continued impact of our revenue mix being weighted towards lower-rated traffic, including international intermodal, which continues to be a significant driver of volume growth. We are encouraged that non-GAAP margin improved each month throughout the quarter. Looking ahead, we have strong momentum in our effort to achieve a full year 100-150 basis points improvement, including 400+ basis points of year-over-year improvement in the second half of the year."

$NSC Norfolk Southern corrects Ancora's 'false and misleading statements' Norfolk Southern filed a presentation with the U.S. SEC addressing the flawed assumptions of Ancora Alternatives highly unrealistic near-term financial targets. Among many other claims, Ancora grossly overestimates the 12-month savings across numerous categories and their "estimated savings" are simply not supported by the mathematical reality. Ancora has unrealistically projected expected savings of $800M over 12 months, resulting in a 62-63% operating ratio, while claiming they would not furlough employees. In Norfolk Southern's presentation, informed by actual railroading experience and direct industry expertise, the company has outlined what the real savings would be in each cost opportunity Ancora cited. Ancora's misinformed savings estimates would only amount to $400M, and to achieve the remaining $400M savings in their plan, approximately 2,900 employee furloughs would be required, despite Ancora's assertions to the contrary.

$NSC Norfolk Southern sees Q1 adjusted EPS $2.49, consensus $2.61 Sees Q1 railway operating revenues $3.00B, consensus for total Q1 revenue $3.05B. Despite 4% volume growth, revenues were down 4% due to RPU headwinds primarily from lower fuel surcharge and the continuation of adverse mix along the patterns we experienced in Q4 2023. "In Q1, we delivered an adjusted operating ratio in line with our guidance, which called for a seasonal increase of 100-200 basis points sequentially from the fourth quarter," said CEO Alan Shaw. "We achieved this result despite macroeconomic challenges and the continued impact of our revenue mix being weighted towards lower-rated traffic, including international intermodal, which continues to be a significant driver of volume growth.
