NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2024
(unaudited)

1    Description of business and basis of presentation

Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited ("CPKC" or the "Company") owns and operates a transcontinental freight railway spanning Canada, the United States ("U.S."), and Mexico. CPKC provides rail and intermodal transportation services over a network of approximately 20,000 miles, serving principal business centres across Canada, the U.S., and Mexico. The Company transports bulk commodities, merchandise, and intermodal freight. CPKC's Common Shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CP".

On April 14, 2023, Canadian Pacific Railway Limited ("CPRL") assumed control of Kansas City Southern ("KCS") and changed its name to Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 ("Interim Consolidated Financial Statements") include KCS as a consolidated subsidiary from April 14, 2023. For the period beginning on January 1, 2023 and ending on April 13, 2023, the Company's 100% interest in KCS was accounted for and reported as an equity-method investment (see Notes 8 and 9).

These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). They do not include all of the information required for a complete set of annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2023 ("last annual financial statements"). Selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Company's financial position and results of operations since the last annual financial statements. These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared using the same significant accounting policies used in the last annual financial statements, except for the adoption of new standards (see Note 2). Amounts are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

The Company's operations and income for interim periods can be affected by seasonal fluctuations such as changes in customer demand and weather conditions, and may not be indicative of annual results.

2    Accounting changes

Recently adopted accounting standards

The accounting standards that have become effective during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 did not have a material impact on the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

4    Income taxes

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, legislation was enacted to decrease the Arkansas state corporate income tax rate. As a result of this change, the Company recorded a deferred tax recovery of $3 million related to the revaluation of deferred income tax balances.

The effective tax rates including discrete items for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were 24.40% and 24.72%, respectively, compared to 120.88% and 139.47%, respectively, for the same periods of 2023.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the effective tax rate was 25.00%, excluding the discrete items of amortization of business acquisition fair value adjustments of $88 million, acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC of $28 million, and a deferred tax recovery of $3 million on the Arkansas state corporate income tax rate change.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the effective tax rate was 25.18%, excluding the discrete items of the derecognition of the deferred income tax liability on the outside basis difference of the investment in KCS of $7,832 million upon acquiring control of KCS, remeasurement loss of KCS of $7,175 million, acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC of $119 million, amortization of business acquisition fair value adjustments of $75 million, revaluation of deferred income tax balances on unitary state apportionment changes of $51 million, and the equity earnings of KCS of $26 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the effective tax rate was 25.00%, excluding the discrete items of amortization of business acquisition fair value adjustments of $174 million, acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC of $54 million, adjustments to provisions and settlements of Mexican taxes of $10 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", and a deferred tax recovery of $3 million on the Arkansas state corporate income tax rate change.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the effective tax rate was 24.88%, excluding the discrete items of the derecognition of the deferred income tax liability on the outside basis difference of the investment in KCS of $7,832 million upon acquiring control of KCS, remeasurement loss of KCS of $7,175 million, the equity earnings of KCS of $230 million, acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC of $134 million, amortization of business acquisition fair value adjustments of $75 million, revaluation of deferred income tax balances on unitary state apportionment changes of $51 million, and an outside basis deferred tax recovery of $23 million arising from the difference between the carrying amount of CPKC's investment in KCS for financial reporting and the underlying tax basis of this investment.

See Note 8 for information regarding the KCS acquisition and Note 9 for information regarding the investment in KCS.

Mexican Tax Audits

There are certain Mexican subsidiaries with ongoing audits for the years 2016-2019 and 2021. As at June 30, 2024, the Company believes that it has recorded sufficient income tax reserves with respect to these income tax examinations.

2014 Tax Assessment

The Kansas City Southern de México, S.A. de C.V. (also known as Canadian Pacific Kansas City Mexico) ("CPKCM") 2014 Tax Assessment is currently in litigation. Following an Administrative Court decision in April 2024 that upheld the Servicio de Administración Tributaria's ("SAT”) (Mexican tax authority) dismissal of CPKCM's administrative appeal and the 2014 Tax Assessment, CPKCM challenged this decision by filing an amparo petition on June 21, 2024 (see Note 14).

8    Business acquisition

Kansas City Southern

On December 14, 2021, the Company purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of KCS with the objective of creating the only single-line railroad linking the U.S., Mexico and Canada, and the Company placed the shares of KCS in a voting trust. On March 15, 2023, the U.S. Surface Transportation Board (the “STB”) approved the Company and KCS’s joint merger application, and the Company assumed control of KCS on April 14, 2023 (the "Control Date"). From December 14, 2021 to April 13, 2023, the Company recorded its investment in KCS using the equity method of accounting.

Accordingly, the Company commenced consolidation of KCS on the Control Date, accounting for the acquisition as a business combination achieved in stages. The results from operations and cash flows have been consolidated prospectively from the Control Date. The Company derecognized its previously held equity method investment in KCS of $44,402 million as of April 13, 2023 and remeasured the investment at its Control Date fair value of $37,227 million, which formed part of the purchase consideration, resulting in a remeasurement loss of $7,175 million recorded in the second quarter of 2023. In addition, and on the same date, a deferred income tax recovery of $7,832 million was recognized upon the derecognition of the deferred income tax liability computed on the outside basis that the Company had recognized in relation to its investment in KCS while accounted for using the equity method. The fair value of the previously held equity interest in KCS was determined by a discounted cash flow approach, which incorporated the Company’s best estimates of long-term growth rates, tax rates, discount rates, and terminal multiples.

The identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities and non-controlling interest assumed were measured at their provisional fair values at the Control Date, with certain exceptions, including income taxes, certain contingent liabilities and contract liabilities. The provisional fair values of the tangible assets were determined using valuation techniques including, but not limited to, the market approach and the cost approach. The significant assumptions used to determine the provisional fair value of the tangible assets included, but were not limited to, a selection of comparable assets and an appropriate inflation rate. Presented with the acquired Properties are concession and related assets held under the terms of a concession from the Mexican government (the "Concession"). The Concession expires in June 2047 and is renewable under certain conditions for additional periods, each of up to 50 years.

The provisional fair values of the intangible assets were determined using valuation techniques including, but not limited to, the multi-period excess earnings method, the replacement cost method, the relief from royalty method and the income approach. The significant assumptions used to determine the provisional fair values of the intangible assets included, but were not limited to, the renewal probability and term of the Mexican concession extension, discount rates, earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") margins and terminal growth rates.

The fair value of non-controlling interest was determined using a combination of the income and market approaches to determine the fair value of Meridian Speedway LLC in which Norfolk Southern Corporation ("NSC") owns a non-controlling interest, and this fair value was allocated proportionately between KCS and NSC.

The accounting for the acquisition of KCS was completed on April 13, 2024, with the end of the measurement period and the final validation of the fair values assigned to acquired assets and assumed liabilities. This validation was completed using additional information about facts and circumstances as of the Control Date, that was obtained during the measurement period.

The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation with the amounts recognized in respect of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and non-controlling interest assumed on the Control Date, as well as the fair value of the previously held equity interest in KCS and the measurement period adjustments recorded:

During the measurement period adjustments were recorded as a result of new information that was obtained about facts and circumstances of certain KCS assets and liabilities as of the Control Date. New information obtained during 2023 was primarily in relation to CPKCM's value added tax assets and liabilities, as well as income and other tax positions. New information obtained during the first quarter of 2024 was primarily in relation to KCS's environmental liabilities, certain liabilities for other taxes in Mexico and legal and personal injury claims. Other adjustments recorded in relation to assets and liabilities were not significant in value. These adjustments to the Company's December 31, 2023 Consolidated Balance Sheet and March 31, 2024 Interim Consolidated Balance Sheet had a negligible impact to the Company's net income in 2023 and in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

The net working capital acquired included trade receivables of $697 million and accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,014 million.

Intangible assets of $3,022 million consisted of contracts and customer relationships with amortization periods of nine to 22 years as well as U.S. trackage rights and the KCS brand with indefinite estimated useful lives. Included in the acquired Properties are concession rights and related assets held under the terms of a concession from the Mexican government, which have fair values totalling $9,176 million. The Concession rights and related assets are amortized over the shorter of the underlying asset lives and the estimated concession term, including one renewal period of 74 years.

Net working capital and Other long-term liabilities included environmental liabilities of $15 million and $160 million, respectively, and legal and personal injury claims of $44 million and $40 million, respectively, which are contingent on the outcome of uncertain future events. The values are measured at estimated cost and evaluated for changes in facts at the end of the reporting period.

The excess of the total consideration, over the amounts allocated to acquired assets and assumed liabilities and non-controlling interest recognized, has been recognized as goodwill of $17,632 million. Goodwill represents future synergies and an acquired assembled workforce. All of the goodwill has been assigned to the Company's single, rail transportation operating segment. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

In relation to certain Mexican tax liabilities identified and recorded through Goodwill during the measurement period, in the first quarter of 2024, the Company also recorded further accruals for liabilities incurred since the Control Date of $10 million, recognized as an expense within "Compensation and benefits".

On a pro forma basis, if the Company had consolidated KCS beginning on January 1, 2022, the revenue and net income attributable to controlling shareholders of the combined entity would be as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023:

10    Debt

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repaid U.S. $48 million ($66 million) 5.41% Senior Secured Notes at maturity.

Debt repurchase

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased certain Senior Notes on the open market. These repurchases were accounted for as debt extinguishments, with gains recorded in “Other (income) expense” on the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased U.S. $110 million ($151 million) of Senior Notes, and recognized a gain of $16 million in "Other (income) expense".

During the second quarter of 2024 the company also committed to the repurchase of U.S. $26 million ($35 million) in Senior Notes that were extinguished subsequent to June 30, 2024.

Credit facility

Effective June 25, 2024, the Company entered into a third amended and restated revolving credit facility (the "facility") agreement to extend the maturity dates of its five-year U.S. $1.1 billion facility and two-year U.S. $1.1 billion facility to June 25, 2029 and June 25, 2026, respectively.

Commercial paper program                

The Company has a commercial paper program, under which it may issue up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of U.S. $1.5 billion in the form of unsecured promissory notes. This commercial paper program is backed by a U.S. $2.2 billion revolving credit facility. As at June 30, 2024, the Company had total commercial paper borrowings outstanding of U.S. $536 million ($734 million) included in "Long-term debt maturing within one year" on the Company's Interim Consolidated Balance Sheet (December 31, 2023 - U.S. $800 million). The weighted-average interest rate on these borrowings as at June 30, 2024 was 5.53% (December 31, 2023 - 5.59%). The Company presents issuances and repayments of commercial paper, all of which have a maturity of less than 90 days, in the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, on a net basis.

11    Financial instruments

A. Fair values of financial instruments

The Company categorizes its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes those inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value based on the degree to which they are observable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2 inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market.

The Company’s short-term financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and short-term borrowings, including commercial paper and term loans. The carrying value of short-term financial instruments approximate their fair value.

The carrying value of the Company’s debt does not approximate its fair value. The estimated fair value has been determined based on market information, where available, or by discounting future payments of principal and interest at estimated interest
14


rates expected to be available to the Company at the balance sheet date. All measurements are classified as Level 2. The Company’s long-term debt, including current maturities, with a carrying value of $21,890 million as at June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $21,437 million), had a fair value of $20,314 million (December 31, 2023 - $20,550 million).

B. Financial risk management

FX management

Net investment hedge
The majority of the Company’s U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debt, finance lease obligations, and operating lease liabilities have been designated as a hedge of the Company's net investment in foreign subsidiaries. This designation has the effect of mitigating volatility on Net income by offsetting long-term FX gains and losses on U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debt and gains and losses on its net investment. The effect of the Company's net investment hedge included in "Other comprehensive income (loss)" for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was an unrealized FX loss of $41 million and $144 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2023 - unrealized FX loss of $163 million and $162 million, respectively).

Mexican Peso- U.S. dollar FX Forward contracts
The Company’s Mexican subsidiaries have net U.S. dollar-denominated monetary assets or liabilities which, for Mexican income tax purposes, are subject to periodic revaluation based on changes in the value of the Mexican peso ("Ps.") against the U.S dollar. This revaluation creates fluctuations in the Company’s Mexican income tax expense and the amount of income taxes paid in Mexican pesos. The Company also has net monetary assets or liabilities denominated in Mexican pesos that are subject to periodic re-measurement and settlement that create fluctuations within "Other (income) expense". The Company has hedged its net exposure to Mexican peso/U.S dollar fluctuations in earnings with foreign currency forward contracts. The foreign currency forward contracts involve the Company’s agreement to buy or sell pesos at an agreed-upon exchange rate on a future date.

The Company measures the foreign currency derivative contracts at fair value each period and recognizes any change in "Other (income) expense". The cash flows associated with these instruments are classified as "Operating activities" within the Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a loss of $4 million related to foreign exchange currency forwards. As at December 31, 2023, the fair value of outstanding foreign exchange contracts included in "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" was $60 million. As of January 12, 2024, the Company settled all outstanding foreign currency forward contracts, resulting in a cash outflow of $65 million.

Offsetting
The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts were executed with counterparties in the U.S. and were governed by International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements that included standard netting arrangements. Asset and liability positions from contracts with the same counterparty were net settled upon maturity/expiration and presented on a net basis in the Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets prior to settlement.

12    Pension and other benefits

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company made contributions to its defined benefit pension plans of $2 million and $5 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2023 - $5 million and $9 million, respectively).

Net periodic benefit (recovery) cost for defined benefit pension plans and other benefits included the following components:

13    Stock-based compensation

As at June 30, 2024, the Company had several stock-based compensation plans including a stock options plan, various cash-settled liability plans, and an employee share purchase plan. These plans resulted in an expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 of $9 million and $68 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2023 - expense of $39 million and $71 million, respectively).

Stock options plan

In the six months ended June 30, 2024, under the Company’s stock options plan, the Company issued 817,609 options at the weighted-average price of $113.77 per share, based on the closing price on the grant date. Pursuant to the employee plan, these options may be exercised upon vesting, which is between 12 months and 48 months after the grant date, and will expire seven years from the grant date.

Under the fair value method, the fair value of the stock options at grant date was approximately $27 million. The weighted-average fair value assumptions were approximately:

(4)Determined by the current annual dividend at the time of grant. The Company does not employ different dividend yields throughout the contractual term of the option.
(5)The Company estimates forfeitures based on past experience. This rate is monitored on a periodic basis.

Performance share unit plans

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 568,159 Performance Share Units ("PSUs") with a grant date fair value of $65 million and 25,589 Performance Deferred Share Units ("PDSUs") with a grant date fair value, including the fair value of expected future matching units, of $3 million. PSUs and PDSUs attract dividend equivalents in the form of additional units based on dividends paid on the Company’s Common Shares, and vest three to four years after the grant date, contingent on the Company’s performance ("performance factor"). Vested PSUs are settled in cash. Vested PDSUs are converted into DSUs pursuant to the DSU plan, are eligible for a 25% company match if the employee has not exceeded their share ownership requirements, and are settled in cash only when the holder ceases their employment with the Company.

The performance period for 568,159 PSUs and all PDSUs granted in the six months ended June 30, 2024 is January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026 and the performance factors are Free Cash Flow ("FCF"), annualized earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"), and Total Shareholder Return "TSR" compared to the S&P/TSX 60 Index, TSR compared to the S&P 500 Industrials Index, and TSR compared to Class 1 Railroads.
16



The performance period for all of the 431,430 PSUs and 12,694 PDSUs granted in 2021 was January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023, and the performance factors were Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC"), TSR compared to the S&P/TSX 60 Index, and TSR compared to Class I Railways. The resulting payout was 135% of the outstanding units multiplied by the Company's average common share price calculated based on the last 30 trading days preceding December 31, 2023. In the first quarter of 2024, payouts were $54 million on 399,372 PSUs, including dividends reinvested. The 11,372 PDSUs that vested on December 31, 2023, with a fair value of $2 million, including dividends reinvested and matching units, will be paid out in future reporting periods pursuant to the DSU plan (as described above).

14    Contingencies

Litigation

In the normal course of its operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions, including claims relating to injuries and damage to property. The Company maintains provisions it considers to be adequate for such actions. While the final outcome with respect to actions outstanding or pending at June 30, 2024 cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. However, an unexpected adverse resolution of one or more of these legal actions could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position, results of operations, or liquidity in a particular quarter or fiscal year.

Legal proceedings related to Lac-Mégantic rail accident

On July 6, 2013, a train carrying petroleum crude oil operated by Montréal Maine and Atlantic Railway (“MMAR”) or a subsidiary, Montréal Maine & Atlantic Canada Co. (“MMAC” and collectively the “MMA Group”), derailed in Lac-Mégantic, Québec. The derailment occurred on a section of railway owned and operated by the MMA Group and while the MMA Group exclusively controlled the train.

Following the derailment, MMAC sought court protection in Canada under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act and MMAR filed for bankruptcy in the U.S. Plans of arrangement were approved in both Canada and the U.S. (the “Plans”), providing for the distribution of approximately $440 million amongst those claiming derailment damages.

A number of legal proceedings, set out below, were commenced in Canada and the U.S. against the Company and others:

(1)Québec's Minister of Sustainable Development, Environment, Wildlife and Parks ordered various parties, including the Company, to remediate the derailment site (the "Cleanup Order") and served the Company with a Notice of Claim for $95 million for those costs. The Company appealed the Cleanup Order and contested the Notice of Claim with the Administrative Tribunal of Québec. These proceedings are stayed pending determination of the Attorney General of Québec (“AGQ”) action (paragraph 2 below).

(2)The AGQ sued the Company in the Québec Superior Court claiming $409 million in damages, which was amended and reduced to $315 million (the “AGQ Action”). The AGQ Action alleges that: (i) the Company was responsible for the petroleum crude oil from its point of origin until its delivery to Irving Oil Ltd.; and (ii) the Company is vicariously liable for the acts and omissions of the MMA Group.

(3)A class action in the Québec Superior Court on behalf of persons and entities residing in, owning or leasing property in, operating a business in, or physically present in Lac-Mégantic at the time of the derailment was certified against the Company on May 8, 2015 (the "Class Action"). Other defendants including MMAC and Mr. Thomas Harding ("Harding") were added to the Class Action on January 25, 2017. On November 28, 2019, the plaintiffs' motion to discontinue their action against Harding was granted. The Class Action seeks unquantified damages, including for wrongful death, personal injury, property damage, and economic loss.

(4)Eight subrogated insurers sued the Company in the Québec Superior Court claiming approximately $16 million in damages, which was amended and reduced to approximately $15 million (the “Promutuel Action”), and two additional subrogated insurers sued the Company claiming approximately $3 million in damages (the “Royal Action”). Both actions contain similar allegations as the AGQ Action. The actions do not identify the subrogated parties. As such, the extent of any overlap between the damages claimed in these actions and under the Plans is unclear. The Royal Action is stayed pending determination of the consolidated proceedings described below.

On December 11, 2017, the AGQ Action, the Class Action and the Promutuel Action were consolidated. The joint liability trial of these consolidated claims commenced on September 21, 2021 with oral arguments ending on June 15, 2022. The Québec Superior Court issued a decision on December 14, 2022 dismissing all claims as against the Company, finding that the Company’s actions were not the direct and immediate cause of the accident and the damages suffered by the plaintiffs. All three plaintiffs filed a declaration of appeal on January 13, 2023. The appeal is set to be heard in the week of October 7, 2024. A damages trial will follow after the disposition of all appeals, if necessary.

(5)Forty-eight plaintiffs (all individual claims joined in one action) sued the Company, MMAC, and Harding in the Québec Superior Court claiming approximately $5 million in damages for economic loss and pain and suffering, and asserting similar allegations as in the Class Action and the AGQ Action. The majority of the plaintiffs opted-out of the Class Action and all but two are also plaintiffs in litigation against the Company, described in paragraph 7 below. This action is stayed pending determination of the consolidated claims described above.

(6)The MMAR U.S. bankruptcy estate representative commenced an action against the Company in November 2014 in the Maine Bankruptcy Court claiming that the Company failed to abide by certain regulations and seeking approximately U.S. $30 million in damages for MMAR’s loss in business value according to an expert report filed by the bankruptcy estate. This action asserts that the Company knew or ought to have known that the shipper misclassified the petroleum crude oil and therefore should have refused to transport it. Summary judgment motion was argued and taken under advisement on June 9, 2022, and decision is pending. On May 23, 2023, the case management judge stayed the proceedings pending the outcome of the appeal in the Canadian consolidated claims.

(7)The class and mass tort action commenced against the Company in June 2015 in Texas (on behalf of Lac-Mégantic residents and wrongful death representatives) and the wrongful death and personal injury actions commenced against the Company in June 2015 in Illinois and Maine, were all transferred and consolidated in Federal District Court in Maine (the “Maine Actions”). The Maine Actions allege that the Company negligently misclassified and improperly packaged the petroleum crude oil. On the Company’s motion, the Maine Actions were dismissed. The plaintiffs appealed the dismissal decision to the U.S. First Circuit Court of Appeals, which dismissed the plaintiffs' appeal on June 2, 2021. The plaintiffs further petitioned the U.S. First Circuit Court of Appeals for a rehearing, which was denied on September 8, 2021. On January 24, 2022, the plaintiffs further appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court on two bankruptcy procedural grounds. On May 31, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court denied the petition, thereby rejecting the plaintiffs' appeal.

(8)The trustee for the wrongful death trust commenced Carmack Amendment claims against the Company in North Dakota Federal Court, seeking to recover approximately U.S. $6 million for damaged rail cars and lost crude oil and reimbursement for the settlement paid by the consignor and the consignee under the Plans (alleged to be U.S. $110 million and U.S. $60 million, respectively). The Court issued an Order on August 6, 2020 granting and denying in parts the parties' summary judgment motions which has been reviewed and confirmed following motions by the parties for clarification and reconsideration. Final briefs of dispositive motions for summary judgment and for reconsideration on tariff applicability were submitted on September 30, 2022. On January 20, 2023, the Court granted in part the Company's summary judgment motion by dismissing all claims for recovery of settlement payments but leaving for trial the determination of the value of the lost crude oil. It also dismissed the Company's motion for reconsideration on tariff applicability. The remaining issues of the value of the lost crude oil and applicability of judgment reduction provisions do not require trial, and were fully briefed in 2024. On January 5, 2024, the Court issued its decision finding that the Company is liable for approximately U.S. $3.9 million plus pre-judgment interest, but declined to determine whether judgment reduction provisions were applicable, referring the parties to a court in Maine on that issue. On January 18, 2024, the Company filed a motion for reconsideration for the Court to apply the judgment reduction provisions. On January 19, 2024, the trustee for the wrongful death trust filed a Notice of Appeal for the January 5, 2024 decision, as well as prior decisions. On February 23, 2024, the Court denied the Company’s motion for reconsideration, again referring the parties to a court in Maine to apply the judgment reduction provision. On March 6, 2024, the Company filed its notice of appeal of this latest ruling, as well as prior decisions.

At this stage of the proceedings, any potential responsibility and the quantum of potential losses cannot be determined. Nevertheless, the Company denies liability and is vigorously defending these proceedings.

Court decision related to Remington Development Corporation legal claim

On October 20, 2022, the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta issued a decision in a claim brought by Remington Development Corporation (“Remington”) against the Company and the Province of Alberta (“Alberta”) with respect to an alleged breach of contract by the Company in relation to the sale of certain properties in Calgary. In its decision, the Court found the Company had breached its contract with Remington and Alberta had induced the contract breach. The Court found the Company and Alberta liable for damages of approximately $164 million plus interest and costs, and subject to an adjustment to the acquisition value of the property. In a further decision on August 30, 2023, the Court determined that adjustment and set the total damages at $165 million plus interest and costs. On October 20, 2023, the Court determined the costs payable to Remington, however, the Court has not provided any indication of how the damages, which are currently estimated to total approximately $222 million, should be apportioned between the Company and Alberta. As a result, at this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount of damages for which it is liable under the ruling of the Court. The Company has filed an appeal of the Court’s decision, which is set to be heard on September 10, 2024. On April 11, 2024, the Court stayed the judgement pending the outcome of the appeal.

2014 Tax Assessment

On April 13, 2022, the SAT delivered an audit assessment on CPKCM’s 2014 tax returns (the "2014 Assessment"). As at June 30, 2024, the assessment was Ps.6,159 million ($459 million), which included inflation, interest, and penalties. On July 7, 2022,
18


CPKCM filed an administrative appeal with the SAT to revoke the 2014 Assessment and challenge that the SAT’s delivery of the assessment by electronic tax mailbox violated an enforceable court injunction previously granted to CPKCM. On September 26, 2022, the SAT dismissed CPKCM’s administrative appeal on grounds that it was not submitted timely. On November 10, 2022, CPKCM filed a lawsuit in the Administrative Court challenging the legality of the SAT's delivery of the assessment by electronic mailbox and also the SAT’s dismissal of CPKCM’s administrative appeal. On April 24, 2024, the Administrative Court issued a decision confirming the legality of the SAT’s delivery of the 2014 Assessment and dismissing CPKCM’s administrative appeal. On June 21, 2024, CPKCM appealed the decision by submitting an amparo petition. CPKCM expects to prevail based on the technical merits of its case.

Environmental liabilities

Environmental remediation accruals, recorded on an undiscounted basis unless a reliable, determinable estimate as to an amount and timing of costs can be established, cover site-specific remediation programs.

The accruals for environmental remediation represent the Company’s best estimate of its probable future obligation and include both asserted and unasserted claims, without reduction for anticipated recoveries from third parties. Although the recorded accruals include the Company’s best estimate of all probable costs, the Company’s total environmental remediation costs cannot be predicted with certainty. Accruals for environmental remediation may change from time to time as new information about previously untested sites becomes known, and as environmental laws and regulations evolve and advances are made in environmental remediation technology. The accruals may also vary as the courts decide legal proceedings against outside parties responsible for contamination. These potential charges, which cannot be quantified at this time, may materially affect income in the particular period in which a charge is recognized. Costs related to existing, but as yet unknown, or future contamination will be accrued in the period in which they become probable and reasonably estimable.

The expense included in “Purchased services and other” in the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $2 million and $4 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2023 - $3 million and $4 million, respectively). Provisions for environmental remediation costs are recorded in the Company's Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets in “Other long-term liabilities”, except for the current portion, which is recorded in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities”. The total amount provided as at June 30, 2024 was $253 million (December 31, 2023 - $220 million). Payments are expected to be made over 10 years through 2033.

Executive Summary

Second Quarter of 2024 Results

Financial performance - In the second quarter of 2024, the Company reported Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.97, a decrease of 32% compared to the same period of 2023. Core adjusted combined diluted EPS was $1.05, an increase of 27% compared to the same period of 2023. The Company reported Operating ratio of 64.8%, a 550 basis point improvement compared to the same period of 2023. Core adjusted combined operating ratio was 61.8%, a 280 basis point improvement compared to the same period of 2023. Core adjusted combined diluted EPS and Core adjusted combined operating ratio are defined and reconciled in the Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Total revenues - Total revenues increased by 14% in the second quarter of 2024 to $3,603 million, compared to the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher volumes as measured by revenue ton-miles ("RTMs"), the impact of the KCS acquisition, and increased freight revenue per RTM.

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 in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition and higher volumes of Grain, Energy, chemicals and plastics, and Potash, partially offset by lower volumes of Metals, minerals and consumer products.

The increase in GTMs in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition and higher volumes of U.S. grain, Energy, chemicals and plastics, and Potash, partially offset by lower volumes of Metals, minerals and consumer products.

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 in the second quarter of 2024 reflects the impact of a 9% increase in workload (GTMs), with minimal change in average train weights.

The increase in train miles in the first six months of 2024 reflected the impact of a 23% increase in workload (GTMs) and a 7% 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 improvement in fuel efficiency in the second quarter of 2024 was due to an improvement in horsepower utilization. The 4% increase in the first six months of 2024 was due to a decrease in average train weights by 7%, which was primarily due to lower horsepower utilization and harsher winter operating conditions in January 2024.

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 in the second quarter and in the first six months of 2024 were primarily due to the acquisition of KCS.

Results of Operations

Operating Revenues

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-
21


freight revenues are generated from leasing of certain assets, interline switching, and other arrangements including contracts with passenger service operators, subsurface and mineral rights agreements, and logistical services.

For the three months ended June 3020242023Total Change% Change
Freight revenues (in millions)$3,534 $3,101 $433 14

Freight revenue per carload (in dollars)$3,256 $2,899 $357 12 
Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile (in cents)6.78 6.55 0.23 

Total Revenues
The increase in Freight revenues in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher volumes as measured by RTMs, the impact of the KCS acquisition of $160 million, and increased freight revenue per RTM. The decrease in Non-freight revenues was primarily due to lower leasing revenue, partially offset by the impact of the KCS acquisition of $4 million.

RTMs
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 in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition and higher volumes of Grain, Energy, chemicals and plastics, and Potash, partially offset by lower volumes of Metals, minerals and consumer products.

Freight Revenue per RTM
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 in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in FX of $50 million.

Freight revenue per carload (in dollars)$3,226 $3,040 $186 
Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile (in cents)6.70 6.26 0.44 

Total Revenues
The increase in Freight revenues in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $1,375 million, higher volumes as measured by RTMs, and increased freight revenue per RTM. The increase in Non-freight revenues was primarily due to higher revenue from a fibre optic agreement and the impact of the KCS acquisition of $21 million, partially offset by lower leasing revenue.

RTMs
The increase in RTMs in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition and higher volumes of U.S. grain, Energy, chemicals and plastics, and Potash, partially offset by lower volumes of Metals, minerals and consumer products.

Freight Revenue per RTM
The increase in freight revenue per RTM in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in FX of $47 million, partially offset by the unfavourable impact of lower fuel prices on fuel surcharge revenue of $70 million.

Fuel Cost Adjustment Program

Freight revenues include fuel surcharge revenues associated with the Company's fuel cost adjustment program, which is designed to respond to fluctuations in fuel prices and help reduce exposure to changing fuel prices. The surcharge is applied to shippers through tariffs and by contract, within agreed-upon guidelines. This program includes recoveries of carbon taxes, levies,
22


and obligations under cap-and-trade programs. Freight revenues included fuel surcharge revenues of $442 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $39 million, or 10%, from $403 million in the same period of 2023. This increase was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition, the favourable impact of the change in FX, and higher volumes, partially offset by the unfavourable impact from the timing of recoveries under the Company's fuel cost adjustment program and lower fuel prices.

In the first six months of 2024, fuel surcharge revenues were $854 million, an increase of $139 million, or 19%, from $715 million in the same period of 2023. This increase was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition, higher volumes, and the favourable impact of the change in FX, partially offset by lower fuel prices and the unfavourable impact from the timing of recoveries under the Company's fuel cost adjustment program.

Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile (in cents)5.02 4.91 0.11 

The increase in Grain revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher volumes of U.S. grain, primarily corn to the U.S. Pacific Northwest and Mexico, and soybeans and wheat to Mexico, higher volumes of Canadian grain to Mexico, Vancouver, British Columbia ("B.C."), and Thunder Bay, Ontario, the impact of the KCS acquisition, and increased freight revenue per RTM. 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. corn from the U.S. Midwest to the U.S. Pacific Northwest and Mexico, which have longer lengths of haul.

Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile (in cents)5.02 5.02 — — 

The increase in Grain revenue in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition, higher volumes of U.S. corn to the U.S. Pacific Northwest and Mexico, higher volumes of Canadian grain to Mexico, higher freight rates, and the favourable impact of the change in FX. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of Canadian grain to Vancouver due to a smaller 2023-2024 crop size and the unfavourable impact of lower fuel prices on fuel surcharge revenue. RTMs increased more than carloads due to moving higher volumes of U.S. corn from the U.S. Midwest to the U.S. Pacific Northwest and Mexico, which have longer lengths of haul.

Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile (in cents)4.07 3.85 0.22 

The increase in Coal revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to increased freight revenue per RTM, the impact of the KCS acquisition, and higher volumes of Canadian coal to Vancouver. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of U.S. coal driven by low natural gas prices, which decreases demand for thermal coal, and lower volumes of Canadian coal to Kamloops, B.C. Freight revenue per RTM increased due to higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in FX.

Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile (in cents)3.63 3.21 0.42 13 

The increase in Potash revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher volumes of export potash to the U.S. Pacific Northwest due to recovery of operations following an equipment failure at the Port of Portland, Oregon in 2023, higher volumes of export potash to Thunder Bay, and increased freight revenue per RTM. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of export potash to Vancouver and lower volumes of domestic potash. Freight revenue per RTM increased due to higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in FX. Carloads increased more than RTMs due to moving higher volumes of export potash to the U.S. Pacific Northwest, which has a shorter length of haul, and lower volumes of export potash to Vancouver, which has a longer length of haul.

The increase in Fertilizers and sulphur revenue in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to higher volumes of dry fertilizers and sulphur between Chicago and Alberta, the impact of the KCS acquisition, and increased 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. RTMs increased more than carloads due to moving higher volumes of dry fertilizers from Chicago to Alberta, which has a longer length of haul.

The increase in Forest products revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition, higher volumes of lumber from Alberta, B.C., and Ontario to Texas and the U.S. Midwest, and increased freight revenue per RTM. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of paperboard from Texas to Mexico and lower volumes of wood pulp from Ontario. Freight revenue per RTM increased due to higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in FX. RTMs increased while carloads decreased due to moving higher volumes of lumber from Alberta to Texas, which has a longer length of haul, and lower volumes of wood pulp from Ontario to the U.S. Northeast, which has a shorter length of haul.

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and benefits expense includes employee wages, salaries, fringe benefits, and stock-based compensation. The decrease in Compensation and benefits expense in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to:
lower acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC primarily due to restructuring charges of $50 million incurred by KCS in 2023;
decrease in stock-based compensation of $29 million driven by the changes in the common share price; and
increased labour efficiencies, including the impact of decreased overtime and improved crew utilization.

This decrease was partially offset by the impact of the KCS acquisition of $31 million, and the impact of wage and benefit inflation.

The increase in Compensation and benefits expense in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $243 million, and the impact of wage and benefit inflation.

This increase was partially offset by lower acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC primarily due to restructuring charges of $50 million incurred by KCS in 2023.

Fuel

Fuel expense consists mainly of fuel used by locomotives and includes provincial, state, and federal fuel taxes. The increase in Fuel expense in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to:
the impact of higher fuel prices of $24 million;
an increase in workload, as measured by GTMs;
the impact of the KCS acquisition of $21 million; and
the unfavorable impact of the change in FX of $10 million.

This increase was partially offset by the favourable impact of an increase in fuel efficiency due to running longer and heavier trains.

The increase in Fuel expense in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $179 million and the increase in workload, as measured by GTMs.

Materials

Materials expense includes the cost of materials used for the maintenance of track, locomotives, freight cars, and buildings, as well as software sustainment. The decrease in Material expense in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to reduced locomotive maintenance, partially offset by the impact of the KCS acquisition of $4 million.

The increase in Materials expense in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $33 million, partially offset by reduced freight car and locomotive maintenance.

Equipment Rents

Equipment rents expense includes the cost associated with using other railways' freight cars, intermodal equipment, and locomotives, net of recoveries received from other railways for the use of the Company’s equipment. The increase in Equipment rents expense in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $5 million and the impact of cost inflation. This was partially offset by reduced payments from the use of other railways' intermodal equipment and greater recoveries from other railways for their use of the Company's freight cars.

29


The increase in Equipment rents expense in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $37 million and lower recoveries from the other railways for their use of the Company's locomotives.This increase was partially offset by greater recoveries from other railways for their use of the Company's freight cars.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense is the charge associated with the use of track and roadway, rolling stock, buildings, and other depreciable assets, including assets related to the Company's concession with the Mexican government, as well as amortization of finite life intangible assets. The increase in Depreciation and amortization expense in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $31 million and a higher depreciable asset base.

The increase in Depreciation and amortization expense in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of the KCS acquisition of $255 million and a higher depreciable asset base.

Purchased Services and Other

Purchased services and other expense encompasses a wide range of third-party costs, including expenses for joint facilities, personal injury and damage claims, environmental remediation, property taxes, contractor and consulting fees, and insurance. The increase in Purchased services and other expense in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to:
the impact of the KCS acquisition of $28 million;
the impact of cost inflation;
higher environmental management expenses;
higher terminal service costs; and
the impact of the change in FX of $9 million.

This increase was partially offset by a reduction in casualty incident costs, lower personal injury costs and lower acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC.

The increase in Purchased services and other expense in the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to:
the impact of the KCS acquisition of $235 million;
the impact of cost inflation;
higher terminal service costs;
higher environmental management expenses; and
the impact of the change in FX of $9 million.

The increase was partially offset by:
a one-time fee of $34 million (U.S. $25 million) received in connection with the Company's agreement to waive a departing executive's non-competition agreement with respect to their employment with Norfolk Southern Corporation;
a reduction in casualty incident costs and lower personal injury costs; and
lower acquisition-related costs incurred by CPKC.

Other Income Statement Items

Equity Earnings of Kansas City Southern

On April 14, 2023, the Company assumed control of KCS, and subsequently ceased recognizing equity earnings of KCS.

The Company recognized $26 million (U.S. $19 million) and $230 million (U.S. $170 million) of equity earnings of KCS for the period from April 1 to April 13, 2023 and the period from January 1 to April 13, 2023, respectively. These amounts were net of amortization of basis differences of $6 million (U.S. $4 million) and $48 million (U.S. $35 million) associated with KCS purchase accounting, and were net of acquisition-related costs (net of tax) incurred by KCS. These basis differences related to depreciable property, plant and equipment, intangible assets with definite lives, and long-term debt, and were amortized over the related assets' remaining useful lives and the remaining terms to maturity of the debt instruments. Acquisition-related costs (net of tax) incurred by KCS in the period from April 1 to April 13, 2023 and the period from January 1 to April 13, 2023, were $1 million (U.S. $1 million) and $11 million (U.S. $8 million), respectively. KCS U.S. dollar historical results were translated at the average FX rate for the period April 1 to April 13, 2023 and the period January 1 to April 13, 2023 of $1.00 USD= $1.35 CAD.

Other (Income) Expense

Other (income) expense consists of gains and losses from the change in FX on cash and working capital, the impact of foreign currency forwards, financing costs, shareholder costs, equity earnings, and other non-operating expenditures. Other income was $40 million in the second quarter of 2024, a change of $61 million, from Other expense of $21 million in the same period of 2023. For the first six months of 2024 Other income was $42 million, a change of $65 million, from Other expense of $23 million in the same period of 2023. These changes were primarily due to:
higher equity income of $30 million primarily due to a settlement of a property disposition by an equity investee;
30


a decrease in foreign exchange loss on forward contracts to sell Mexican pesos and buy U.S.dollars (see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 11 Financial Instruments for details); and
a gain on debt extinguishment of $16 million (see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 10 Debt for details).

These changes were partially offset by the unfavourable impact of an increase in FX loss on re-measurement of net monetary assets and liabilities denominated in Mexican pesos.

Other Components of Net Periodic Benefit Recovery

Other components of net periodic benefit recovery are related to the Company's pension and other post-retirement and post-employment benefit plans. It includes interest cost on benefit obligation, expected return on plan assets, recognized net actuarial loss, and amortization of prior service costs. Other components of net periodic benefit recovery was $88 million and $176 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $5 million or 6%, and $7 million or 4%, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2023. These increases were primarily due to a decrease in interest cost on benefit obligation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 of $5 million and $8 million, respectively, and an increase in expected return on plan assets of $1 million and $4 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in recognized net actuarial loss of $2 million and $4 million, respectively.

Net Interest Expense

Net interest expense includes interest on long-term debt and finance leases. Net interest expense was $200 million in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of $4 million, or 2%, from $204 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest expense of $11 million following repayment of maturing long-term debt, partially offset by the impact of the KCS acquisition of $5 million.

Net interest expense was $406 million in the first six months of 2024, an increase of $48 million, or 13%, from $358 million in the same period of 2023. This increase was primarily due to interest of $41 million incurred on debt previously issued by KCS and exchanged with Canadian Pacific Railway Company ("CPRC") following the acquisition of control, and higher interest on commercial paper of $18 million as a result of higher borrowings along with higher interest rates. This increase was partially offset by a favourable impact of $15 million following the repayment of maturing long-term debt.

Remeasurement Loss of Kansas City Southern

On April 14, 2023, the Company assumed control of KCS and began accounting for its acquisition as a business combination achieved in stages. The initial investment was accounted for using the equity method of accounting prior to assuming control. On control, the carrying value of the previously held equity investment in KCS was remeasured to its fair value and upon derecognition, a loss of $7,175 million was recognized in the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Income. This loss was primarily due to the outside basis tax initially recognized upon investment in KCS.

Income Tax Expense (Recovery)

Income tax expense was $292 million in the second quarter of 2024, a change of $7,964 million, or 104%, from an income tax recovery of $7,672 million in the same period of 2023. The change was primarily due to:
a deferred tax recovery of $7,832 million, recorded in the second quarter of 2023, on the derecognition of the deferred income tax liability on the outside basis difference of the investment in KCS upon acquiring control of KCS;
higher current tax expense due to higher taxable earnings; and
a deferred tax recovery of $51 million, recorded in the second quarter of 2023, on the revaluation of deferred income tax balances on unitary state apportionment changes.

Income tax expense was $551 million in the first six months of 2024, a change of $8,060 million, or 107%, from an income tax recovery of $7,509 million in the same period of 2023. The change was primarily due to:
a deferred tax recovery of $7,832 million, recorded in the second quarter of 2023, on the derecognition of the deferred income tax liability on the outside basis difference of the investment in KCS upon acquiring control of KCS;
the impact of the KCS acquisition of $103 million;
higher current tax expense due to higher taxable earnings;
a deferred tax recovery of $51 million, recorded in the second quarter of 2023, on the revaluation of deferred income tax balances on unitary state apportionment changes; and
outside basis deferred tax recovery of $23 million, recorded in the first quarter of 2023, arising from the change in the carrying amount of CP's investment in KCS for financial reporting.

The effective tax rates in the second quarter and first six months of 2024 were 24.40% and 24.72%, respectively, compared to 120.88% and 139.47% in the same periods of 2023. The Core adjusted effective income tax rates in the second quarter and first six months of 2024 were 25.00%, compared to 25.18% and 24.88%, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. The Company's 2024 Core adjusted effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 25.00%. The Core adjusted effective tax rate is a Non-GAAP measure, calculated as the effective tax rate adjusted for significant items as they are not considered indicative of future
31


financial trends either by nature or amount nor provide comparability to past performance. The Company uses the Core adjusted effective tax rate to evaluate CPKC’s operating performance and for planning and forecasting future profitability. Core adjusted effective tax rate also excludes equity earnings of KCS (net of tax) and KCS purchase accounting to provide financial statement users with additional transparency by isolating the impact of KCS purchase accounting. This Non-GAAP measure does not have a standardized meaning and is not defined by GAAP and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Significant items and KCS purchase accounting are discussed further in Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.The Company’s 2024 outlook for its Core adjusted effective tax rate is based on certain assumptions about events and developments that may or may not materialize, or that may be offset entirely or partially by new events and developments. This is discussed further in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Impact of FX on Earnings and Foreign Exchange Risk

Although the Company is headquartered in Canada and reports in Canadian dollars, a significant portion of its revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities including debt are denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos. In addition, equity earnings or losses of KCS recognized through April 13, 2023 are denominated in U.S. dollars. The value of the Canadian dollar is affected by a number of domestic and international factors, including, without limitation, economic performance, commodity prices, and Canadian, U.S., and international monetary policies. Fluctuations in FX affect the Company’s results because revenues and expenses denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos are translated into Canadian dollars. U.S. dollar-denominated revenues and expenses increase (decrease) when the Canadian dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the U.S. dollar. Mexican peso-denominated revenues and expenses increase (decrease) when the U.S. dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the Mexican peso.

In the second quarter of 2024, the U.S. dollar has strengthened to an average rate of $1.37 Canadian/U.S. dollar and the Mexican Peso has strengthened to an average rate of Ps. 12.61 Mexican Peso/Canadian dollar, compared to $1.34 Canadian/U.S. dollar and Ps. 13.16 Mexican Peso/Canadian dollar in the second quarter of 2023, resulting in an increase in Total revenues of $51 million, an increase in Total operating expenses of $35 million, and an increase in Net interest expense of $3 million from the same period of 2023.

In the first six months of 2024, the U.S. dollar has strengthened to an average rate of $1.36 Canadian/U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso has strengthened to an average rate of Ps. 12.61 Mexican Peso/Canadian dollar, compared to $1.35 Canadian/U.S. dollar and Ps. 13.47 Mexican Peso/Canadian dollar in the first six months of 2023, resulting in an increase in Total revenues of $48 million, an increase in Total operating expenses of $33 million, and an increase in interest expense of $3 million from the same period of 2023.

On an annualized basis, the Company expects that every $0.01 weakening (or strengthening) of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar, positively (or negatively) impacts Total revenues by approximately $75 million (December 31, 2023 – approximately $75 million), negatively (or positively) impacts Operating expenses by approximately $46 million (December 31, 2023 – approximately $46 million), and negatively (or positively) impacts Net interest expense by approximately $6 million (December 31, 2023 – approximately $5 million).

On an annualized basis, the Company expects that every Ps.0.10 strengthening (or weakening) of the Mexican peso relative to the Canadian dollar, positively (or negatively) impacts Total revenues by approximately $7 million (December 31, 2023 – approximately $7 million) and negatively (or positively) impacts Operating expenses by approximately $7 million (December 31, 2023 – approximately $7 million).

To manage its exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates between Canadian dollars, U.S. dollars, and or Mexican pesos, the Company may sell or purchase U.S. dollar or Mexican peso forwards at fixed rates in future periods. In addition, changes in the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar and other currencies (including the U.S. dollar and Mexican peso) make the goods transported by the Company more or less competitive in the world marketplace and may in turn positively or negatively affect revenues.

Impact of Fuel Price on Earnings

Fluctuations in fuel prices affect the Company’s results because fuel expense constitutes a significant portion of the Company's operating costs. As fuel prices fluctuate, there will be a timing impact on earnings due to the timing of recoveries from the Company's fuel cost adjustment program.

The impact of fuel price on earnings includes the impacts of carbon taxes, levies, and obligations under cap-and-trade programs recovered and paid, on revenues and expenses, respectively.

In the second quarter of 2024, the unfavourable impact of fuel prices on Operating income was $26 million. Higher fuel prices in expense resulted in an increase in Total operating expenses of $24 million from the same period of 2023. The unfavourable impact of the timing of recoveries under the Company's fuel cost adjustment program and lower fuel surcharge prices, partially offset by increased carbon levy surcharge revenue, resulted in a decrease in Total revenues of $2 million.

In the first six months of 2024, the unfavourable impact of fuel prices on Operating income was $67 million. Lower fuel prices and the unfavourable impact of the timing of recoveries under the Company's fuel cost adjustment program, partially offset by increased carbon levy surcharge revenue, resulted in a decrease in Total revenues of $70 million. Lower fuel prices resulted in a decrease in Total operating expenses of $3 million from the same period of 2023.

Impact of Share Price on Earnings and Stock-Based Compensation

Fluctuations in the Common Share price affect the Company's operating expenses because share-based liabilities are measured at fair value. The Company's Common Shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") with ticker symbol "CP".

In the second quarter of 2024, the change in Common Share prices resulted in a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $21 million, a change of $27 million, compared to an increase of $6 million in the same period of 2023.

In the first six months of 2024, the change in Common Share prices stayed the same, resulting in a stock-based compensation expense of $nil, a change of $10 million, compared to an increase of $10 million in the same period of 2023.

Based on information available at June 30, 2024 and expectations for 2024 share-based grants, for every $1.00 change in share price, stock-based compensation expense has a corresponding change of approximately $2.0 million to $2.2 million (December 31, 2023 - approximately $1.6 million to $2.3 million). This excludes the impact of changes in Common Share price relative to the S&P/TSX 60 Index, S&P 500 Industrials Index, and to Class I railways, which may trigger different performance share unit payouts. Stock-based compensation may also be impacted by non-market performance conditions.

Additional information concerning stock-based compensation is included in Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 13 Stock-based compensation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary sources of liquidity include its Cash and cash equivalents, commercial paper program and bilateral letter of credit facilities. The Company believes that these sources as well as cash flow generated through operations and existing debt capacity are adequate to meet its short-term and long-term cash requirements. The Company is not aware of any material trends, events, or uncertainties that would create any deficiencies in the Company's liquidity.

As at June 30, 2024, the Company had $557 million of Cash and cash equivalents compared to $464 million at December 31, 2023.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repaid U.S.$48 million ($66 million) 5.41% Senior Secured Notes.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased certain Senior Notes on the open market. These repurchases were accounted for as debt extinguishments, with gains recorded in “Other (income) expense" on the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased U.S. $110 million ($151 million) of Senior Notes, and recognized a gain of $16 million in "Other (income) expense". During the second quarter of 2024 the company also committed to the repurchase of U.S. $26 million ($35 million) in Senior Notes that were extinguished subsequent to June 30, 2024.

Effective June 25, 2024, the Company entered into a third amended and restated revolving credit facility (the "facility") agreement to extend the maturity dates under the facility. The amendment extended the maturity date of the five-year U.S.$1.1 billion tranche from May 11, 2028 to June 25, 2029. The amendment also extended the maturity date of the two-year U.S. $1.1 billion tranche from May 11, 2025 to June 25, 2026.

The Company has a commercial paper program that enables it to issue commercial paper in the form of unsecured promissory notes. The Company's existing commercial paper program is backed by the revolving credit facility. As at June 30, 2024, the Company had total commercial paper borrowings outstanding of U.S. $536 million ($734 million) (December 31, 2023 - U.S. $800 million).

The Company has bilateral letter of credit facilities with six highly rated financial institutions to support its requirement to post letters of credit in the ordinary course of business. Under these agreements, the Company has the option to post collateral in the form of cash or cash equivalents, equal at least to the face value of the letter of credit issued. These agreements permit the Company to withdraw amounts posted as collateral at any time; therefore, the amounts posted as collateral are presented as “Cash and cash equivalents” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As at June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any collateral posted on its bilateral letter of credit facilities (December 31, 2023 - $nil) and had letters of credit drawn of $92 million (December 31, 2023 - $93 million) from a total available amount of $300 million.
33


Contractual Commitments

The Company’s material cash requirements from known contractual obligations and commitments to make future payments primarily consist of long-term debt and related interest, supplier purchases, capital commitments, leases, and other long term liabilities. As at June 30, 2024, debt and finance leases, interest obligations related to debt and finance leases, and letters of credit amount to $3,684 million, $777 million, and $92 million within the next 12 months, respectively, with the remaining amounts committed thereafter of $19,642 million, $16,640 million and $nil, respectively. Future capital commitments amount to $1,237 million within the next 12 months, and $1,612 million committed thereafter.

Supplier purchase agreements and other long-term liabilities amount to $849 million and $68 million within the next 12 months, respectively, with remaining amounts committed thereafter of $2,706 million and $644 million, respectively. Other long-term liabilities include expected cash payments for environmental remediation, post-retirement benefits, worker’s compensation benefits, long-term disability benefits, pension benefit payments for the Company’s non-registered supplemental pension plan, and certain other long-term liabilities. Pension payments are discussed further in Critical Accounting Estimates of Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Concession Duty

Under Kansas City Southern de México, S.A. de C.V. (also known as Canadian Pacific Kansas City Mexico) ("CPKCM")'s 50-year Concession, which could expire in 2047 unless extended, CPKCM pays annual concession duty expense of 1.25% of its gross revenues.

Guarantees

The Company accrues for all guarantees that it expects to pay. As at June 30, 2024, these accruals amounted to $8 million (December 31, 2023 - $8 million).

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities increased $386 million in the second quarter of 2024 and $519 million in the first six months of 2024, compared to the same periods in 2023. These increases were primarily due to higher cash generating income.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities increased $165 million in the second quarter of 2024 and $305 million in the first six months of 2024, compared to the same periods in 2023. These increases were primarily due to higher capital additions and the impact of cash acquired on control of KCS in 2023. These increases were partially offset by the investment in government securities towards satisfaction and discharge of debt in 2023.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $464 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $231 million, compared to $233 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to net repayments of commercial paper of $157 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to net issuances of $550 million in the same period of 2023. This increase was partially offset by $134 million (U.S. $98 million) of debt repurchases on Senior Notes in the second quarter of 2024, compared to principal repayments of $592 million (U.S. $439 million) of 3.00% 10-year Senior Notes in the same period of 2023.

Cash used in financing activities was $895 million in the first six months of 2024, an increase of $17 million, compared to $878 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to net repayments of commercial paper of $362 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to net issuances of $550 million in the same period of 2023. This increase was partially offset by $134 million (U.S. $98 million) of debt repurchases on Senior Notes and principal repayments of $66 million (U.S. $48 million) on the 5.41% Senior Secured Notes during the first six months of 2024, compared to repayments of long-term debt of $592 million (U.S. $439 million) of 3.00% 10-year Senior Notes and $479 million (U.S. $350 million) of 4.45% 12.5-year Notes at maturity during the first six months of 2023.

Credit Measures

Credit ratings provide information relating to the Company’s operations and liquidity, and affect the Company’s ability to obtain short-term and long-term financing and/or the cost of such financing. The applicable margin that applies to outstanding loans under the Company’s revolving credit facility is based on the credit rating assigned to the Company’s senior unsecured and unsubordinated debt.

If the Company’s credit ratings were to decline to below investment-grade levels, the Company could experience a significant increase in its interest cost for new debt along with a negative effect on its ability to readily issue new debt.
34



Credit ratings and outlooks are based on the rating agencies’ methodologies and can change from time to time to reflect their views of the Company. Their views are affected by numerous factors including, but not limited to, the Company’s financial position and liquidity along with external factors beyond the Company’s control.

As at June 30, 2024, the Company's credit ratings from Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("Standard & Poor's") remain unchanged from December 31, 2023. During the first quarter of 2024, Moody's Investor Service ("Moody's") upgraded the Company's outlook from stable to positive. The following table shows the ratings issued for the Company by the rating agencies noted as at June 30, 2024 and is being presented as it relates to the Company’s cost of funds and liquidity.

Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

CPRC, a 100%-owned subsidiary of CPKC, is the issuer of certain securities which are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by CPKC on an unsecured basis. The other subsidiaries of CPRC do not guarantee the securities and are referred to below as the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”. The following is a description of the terms and conditions of the guarantees with respect to securities for which CPRC is the issuer and CPKC provides a full and unconditional guarantee.

As of the date of the filing of the Form 10-Q, CPRC had U.S. $14,552 million principal amount of debt securities outstanding due through 2115, and U.S. $30 million and GBP £3 million in perpetual 4% consolidated debenture stock, for all of which CPKC is the guarantor subject to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), as amended. As of the same date, CPRC also had $2,300 million principal amount of debt securities issued under Canadian Securities Law due through 2050 for which CPKC is the guarantor and not subject to the Exchange Act.

CPKC fully and unconditionally guarantees the payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest on the debt securities and consolidated debenture stock issued by CPRC, any sinking fund or analogous payments payable with respect to such securities, and any additional amounts payable when they become due, whether at maturity or otherwise. The guarantee is CPKC’s unsubordinated and unsecured obligation and ranks equally with all of CPKC’s other unsecured, unsubordinated obligations.

CPKC will be released and relieved of its obligations under the guarantees after obligations to the holders are satisfied in accordance with the terms of the respective instruments.

Pursuant to Rule 13-01 of the SEC's Regulation S-X, the Company provides summarized financial and non-financial information of CPRC in lieu of providing separate financial statements of CPRC.

More information on the securities under this guarantee structure can be found in Exhibit 22.1 List of Issuers and Guarantor Subsidiaries of this quarterly report.

Share Capital

At July 29, 2024, the latest practicable date, there were 933,125,135 Common Shares and no preferred shares issued and outstanding, which consists of 13,561 holders of record of the Common Shares. In addition, the Company has a Management Stock Option Incentive Plan (“MSOIP”), under which key officers and employees are granted options to purchase the Common Shares. All number of options presented herein are shown on the basis of the number of shares subject to the options. At July 29, 2024, 6,202,776 options were outstanding under the MSOIP and stand-alone option agreements entered into with Mr. Keith Creel. There are 21,032,475 options available to be issued by the Company’s MSOIP in the future. The Company also has a Director's Stock Option Plan (“DSOP”), under which directors are granted options to purchase Common Shares. There are no outstanding options under the DSOP, which has 1,700,000 options available to be issued in the future.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company presents Non-GAAP measures, including Core adjusted combined operating ratio and Core adjusted combined diluted earnings per share, to provide an additional basis for evaluating underlying earnings trends in the Company's current period's financial results that can be compared with the results of operations in prior periods. Management believes these Non-GAAP measures facilitate a multi-period assessment of long-term profitability.

These Non-GAAP measures have no standardized meaning and are not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of these Non-GAAP measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or as superior to the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Performance Measures

On April 14, 2023, Canadian Pacific Railway Limited obtained control of KCS and CPKC began consolidating KCS, which had been accounted for under the equity method of accounting between December 14, 2021 and April 13, 2023. On the Control Date, CPKC’s previously-held interest in KCS was remeasured to its Control Date fair value. CPKC presents Core adjusted combined measures to provide a comparison to prior period financial information as adjusted to exclude certain significant items and KCS purchase accounting. The most directly comparable GAAP measures to certain Non-GAAP measures already include KCS's net income attributable to shareholders as a result of applying the equity method of accounting following the acquisition of shares of KCS on December 14, 2021. For example, CPKC's second quarter 2023 diluted earnings per share, which included equity earnings of KCS for the period April 1 through April 13, 2023, is used to reconcile to Core adjusted combined diluted earnings per share. Conversely, the most directly comparable GAAP measure to certain other Non-GAAP measures does not include KCS's equity earnings. For example, the operating ratio, which is used to reconcile to Core adjusted operating ratio, did not include KCS's operating ratio for the period April 1 through April 13, 2023, as equity income was recognized within non-operating earnings. These measures are calculated by (1) adding KCS historical GAAP results and giving effect to transaction accounting adjustments in a consistent manner with Regulation S-X Article 11 ("Article 11"), where applicable, and (2) adjusting for KCS purchase accounting and significant items that management believes affect the comparability between periods.

Management believes these Non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information about our operating results because they exclude certain significant items that are not considered indicative of future financial trends either by nature or amount or provide improved comparability to past performance. As a result, these items are excluded for management's assessment of operational performance, allocation of resources, and preparation of annual budgets. These significant items may include, but are not limited to, restructuring and asset impairment charges, individually significant gains and losses from sales of assets, acquisition-related costs, adjustments to provisions and settlements of Mexican taxes, KCS's gain on unwinding of
37


interest rate hedges (net of CPKC's associated purchase accounting basis differences and tax), as recognized within "Equity earnings of Kansas City Southern" in the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Income, loss on derecognition of CPKC’s previously held equity method investment in KCS, discrete tax items, changes in the outside basis tax difference between the carrying amount of CPKC's equity investment in KCS and its tax basis of this investment, a deferred tax recovery related to the elimination of the deferred tax liability on the outside basis difference of the investment, changes in income tax rates, changes to an uncertain tax item, and certain items outside the control of management. Acquisition-related costs include legal, consulting, integration costs including third-party services and system migration, debt exchange transaction costs, community investments, fair value gain or loss on foreign exchange ("FX") forward contracts and interest rate hedges, FX gain on U.S. dollar-denominated cash on hand from the issuances of long-term debt to fund the KCS acquisition, restructuring, employee retention and synergy incentive costs, and transaction and integration costs incurred by KCS. These items may not be non-recurring and may include items that are settled in cash. Specifically, due to the magnitude of the acquisition, its significant impact to the Company’s business and complexity of integrating the acquired business and operations, the Company expects to incur acquisition-related costs beyond the year of acquisition. Management believes excluding these significant items from GAAP results provides an additional viewpoint which may give users a consistent understanding of CPKC's financial performance when performing a multi-period assessment including assessing the likelihood of future results. Accordingly, these Non-GAAP financial measures may provide additional insight to investors and other external users of CPKC's financial information.

In addition, Core adjusted combined operating ratio and Core adjusted combined diluted earnings per share exclude KCS purchase accounting. KCS purchase accounting represents the amortization of basis differences being the incremental depreciation and amortization in relation to fair value adjustments to properties and intangible assets, incremental amortization in relation to fair value adjustments to KCS’s investments, amortization of the change in fair value of debt of KCS assumed on the Control Date, and depreciation and amortization of fair value adjustments that are attributable to the non-controlling interest, as recognized within "Depreciation and amortization", "Other (income) expense", "Net interest expense", and "Net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interest", respectively, in the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Income. During the periods that KCS was equity accounted for, from December 14, 2021 to April 13, 2023, KCS purchase accounting represents the amortization of basis differences, being the difference in value between the consideration paid to acquire KCS and the underlying carrying value of the net assets of KCS immediately prior to its acquisition by the Company, net of tax, as recognized within "Equity earnings of Kansas City Southern" in the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Income. All assets subject to KCS purchase accounting contribute to income generation and will continue to amortize over their estimated useful lives. Excluding KCS purchase accounting from GAAP results provides financial statement users with additional transparency by isolating the impact of KCS purchase accounting.

Reconciliation of GAAP Performance Measures to Non-GAAP Performance Measures

The following tables reconcile the most directly comparable measures presented in accordance with GAAP to the Non-GAAP measures:

Core Adjusted Combined Diluted Earnings per Share

Core adjusted combined diluted earnings per share is calculated using Net income attributable to controlling shareholders reported on a GAAP basis adjusted for significant items less KCS purchase accounting, divided by the weighted-average diluted number of Common Shares outstanding during the period as determined in accordance with GAAP. Between December 14, 2021 and April 13, 2023, KCS was accounted for in CPKC's diluted earnings per share reported on a GAAP basis using the equity method of accounting and on a consolidated basis beginning April 14, 2023. As the equity method of accounting and consolidation both provide the same diluted earnings per share for CPKC, no adjustment is required to pre-control diluted earnings per share to be comparable on a consolidated basis.

In the first six months of 2024, there were three significant items included in Net income attributable to controlling shareholders as reported on a GAAP basis as follows:
in the second quarter, a deferred tax recovery of $3 million due to a decrease in the Arkansas state corporate income tax rate, that had minimal impact on Diluted EPS;
in the first quarter, adjustments to provisions and settlements of Mexican taxes of $10 million ($10 million after deferred tax recovery) recognized in "Compensation and benefits", that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 1 cent; and
during the first six months, acquisition-related costs of $54 million in connection with the KCS acquisition ($39 million after current tax recovery of $15 million), including costs of $6 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", $4 million recognized in "Materials", and $44 million recognized in "Purchased services and other", that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 4 cents as follows:
in the second quarter, acquisition-related costs of $28 million in connection with the KCS acquisition ($19 million after current tax recovery of $9 million) including costs of $2 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", $2 million recognized in "Materials", and $24 million recognized in "Purchased services and other", that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 2 cents; and
in the first quarter, acquisition-related costs of $26 million in connection with the KCS acquisition ($20 million after current tax recovery of $6 million) including costs of $4 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", $2 million recognized in "Materials", and $20 million recognized in "Purchased services and other", that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 2 cents.
38



In the first six months of 2023, there were four significant items included in Net income attributable to controlling shareholders as reported on a GAAP basis as follows:
in the second quarter, a remeasurement loss of KCS of $7,175 million recognized in "Remeasurement loss of Kansas City Southern" due to the derecognition of CPKC’s previously held equity method investment in KCS and remeasurement at its Control Date fair value, that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by $7.68;
in the second quarter, a deferred tax recovery of $51 million due to CPKC unitary state apportionment changes, that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 5 cents;
during the first six months, deferred tax recoveries of $7,855 million on changes in the outside basis difference on the equity investment in KCS, that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by $8.42 as follows:
in the second quarter, a deferred tax recovery of $7,832 million related to the elimination of the deferred tax liability on the outside basis difference of the investment in KCS, that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by $8.39; and
in the first quarter, a deferred tax recovery of $23 million on changes in the outside basis difference of the equity investment in KCS, that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 3 cents; and
during the first six months, acquisition-related costs of $145 million in connection with the KCS acquisition ($122 million after current tax recovery of $23 million), including an expense of $63 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", $128 million recognized in "Purchased services and other", $6 million recognized in "Other (income) expense", and $11 million recognized in "Equity earnings of Kansas City Southern", that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 13 cents as follows:
in the second quarter, acquisition-related costs of $120 million ($101 million after current tax recovery of $19 million), including costs of $63 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", $53 million recognized in "Purchased services and other", $3 million recognized in "Other (income) expense", and $1 million recognized in "Equity earnings of Kansas City Southern", that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 11 cents; and
in the first quarter, acquisition-related costs of $25 million ($21 million after current tax recovery of $4 million), including costs of $12 million recognized in "Purchased services and other", $3 million recognized in "Other (income) expense", and $10 million recognized in "Equity earnings of Kansas City Southern", that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 2 cents.

(1)The tax effect of adjustments was calculated as the pre-tax effect of the significant items and KCS purchase accounting listed above multiplied by the applicable tax rate for the above items of 28.72% and 26.61% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and 0.54% and 0.58% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The applicable tax rates reflect the taxable jurisdictions and nature, being on account of capital or income, of the adjustments.

Core Adjusted Combined Operating Ratio

Core adjusted combined operating ratio is calculated from reported GAAP revenue and operating expenses adjusted for (1) KCS operating income prior to the Control Date and giving effect to transaction accounting adjustments in a consistent manner with Article 11, where applicable, (2) significant items (acquisition-related costs and adjustments to provisions and settlement of Mexican taxes) that are reported within Operating income, and (3) KCS purchase accounting recognized in "Depreciation and amortization" and "Purchased services and other".

This combined measure does not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations would have been had the Company obtained control of KCS and consolidation actually occurred on January 1, 2022, nor is it indicative of future results. This information is based upon assumptions that CPKC believes reasonably reflect the impact to CPKC's historical financial information, on a supplemental basis, of obtaining control of KCS had it occurred as of January 1, 2022. This information does not include anticipated costs related to integration activities, cost savings or synergies that may be achieved by the combined company.

Significant items included in operating ratio on a combined basis were as follows:

2024:
in the first quarter, adjustments to provisions and settlements of Mexican taxes of $10 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", that unfavourably impacted operating ratio by 0.1% for the first six months ended June 30, 2024; and
during the six months ended June 30, 2024, acquisition-related costs were $54 million in connection with the KCS acquisition including costs of $6 million recognized in "Compensation and benefits", $4 million recognized in "Materials", and $44 million recognized in "Purchased services and other", that unfavourably impacted operating ratio by 0.8% as follows:

Critical Accounting Estimates

To prepare Consolidated Financial Statements that conform with GAAP, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Using the most current information available, the Company reviews estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to business acquisitions, goodwill and intangible assets, environmental liabilities, pensions and other benefits, property, plant and equipment, deferred income taxes, and personal injury and other claims liabilities. Additional information concerning critical accounting estimates is included in Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The development, selection and disclosure of these estimates, and this MD&A, have been reviewed by the Board of Directors’ Audit and Finance Committee, which is composed entirely of independent directors.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and forward-looking information within the meaning of other relevant securities legislation, including applicable securities laws in Canada (collectively referred to herein as "forward-looking statements"). Forward-looking statements typically include words such as “financial expectations”, “key assumptions”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, "project", "estimate", "forecast", “plan”, "intend", "target", “will”, “outlook”, "guidance", “should” or similar words suggesting future outcomes. All statements other than statements of historical fact may be forward-looking statements. To the extent that the Company has provided forecasts or targets using Non-GAAP financial measures, the Company may not be able to provide a reconciliation to a GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts, due to unknown variables and uncertainty related to future results.

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements relating, but not limited to, statements concerning the Company’s expected impacts resulting from changes in the U.S. dollar and Mexican peso exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar, and the effective tax rate, as well as statements concerning the Company’s operations, anticipated financial performance, business prospects and strategies, including statements concerning the anticipation that cash flow from operations and various sources of financing will be sufficient to meet debt repayments and obligations in the foreseeable future and concerning anticipated capital programs, and statements regarding future payments including income taxes.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on current expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions, having regard to the Company's experience and its perception of historical trends, and includes, but is not limited to, expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions relating to: change in business strategies; North American and global economic growth; commodity demand growth; sustainable industrial and agricultural production; commodity prices and interest rates; foreign exchange rates (as specified herein); effective tax rates (as specified herein); performance of our assets and equipment; sufficiency of our budgeted capital expenditures in carrying out our business plan; geopolitical conditions; applicable laws, regulations and government policies; the availability and cost of labour, services and infrastructure; labour disruptions; and the satisfaction by third parties of their obligations to the Company. Although the Company believes the expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements presented herein are reasonable as of the date hereof, there can be no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Current conditions, economic and otherwise, render assumptions, although reasonable when made, subject to greater uncertainty.

With respect to the KCS business combination, there can be no guarantee of the satisfaction of the conditions imposed by the STB in its March 15, 2023 final decision, successful integration of KCS or that the combined company will realize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, whether financial, strategic or otherwise, and this may be exacerbated by changes to the economic, political and global environment in which the merged company will operate.

Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements as actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous inherent risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the following factors: changes in business strategies; general North American and global economic, credit and business conditions; risks associated with agricultural production such as weather conditions and insect populations; the availability and price of energy commodities; the effects of competition and pricing pressures; industry capacity; shifts in market demand; changes in commodity prices; uncertainty surrounding timing and volumes of commodities being shipped via the Company; inflation; geopolitical instability; changes in laws, regulations and government policies, including regulation of rates; changes in taxes and tax rates; potential increases in maintenance and operating costs; changes in fuel prices; uncertainties of investigations, proceedings or other types of claims and litigation; labour disputes; risks and liabilities arising from derailments; transportation of dangerous goods; timing of completion of capital and maintenance projects; currency and interest rate fluctuations; effects of changes in market conditions and discount rates on the financial position of pension plans and investments; trade restrictions or other changes to international trade arrangements; climate change; various events that could
42


disrupt operations, including severe weather, such as droughts, floods, avalanches, volcanism and earthquakes, and cybersecurity attacks, as well as security threats and governmental response to them, and technological changes; and the outbreak of a pandemic or contagious disease and the resulting effects on economic conditions, the demand environment for logistics requirements and energy prices, restrictions imposed by public health authorities or governments, fiscal and monetary policy responses by governments and financial institutions, and disruptions to global supply chains. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.

There are more specific factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These more specific factors are identified and discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other risks are detailed from time to time in reports filed by the Company with securities regulators in Canada and the United States.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, or the foregoing assumptions and risks affecting such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Information concerning market risk sensitive instruments is set forth under Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Impact of FX on Earnings and Foreign Exchange Risk and Impact of Share Price on Earnings and Stock-Based Compensation.

Interest Rate Risk

Debt financing forms part of the Company's capital structure. The debt agreements entered into expose the Company to increased interest costs on future fixed debt instruments and existing variable rate debt instruments, should market rates increase.

As at June 30, 2024, a hypothetical one percentage point change in interest rates on the Company's floating rate debt obligations outstanding is not material. In addition, the present value of the Company’s assets and liabilities will also vary with interest rate changes. To manage interest rate exposure, the Company may enter into forward rate agreements such as treasury rate locks or bond locks that protect against interest rate increases. The Company may also enter into swap agreements whereby one party agrees to pay a fixed rate of interest while the other party pays a floating rate. Contingent on the direction of interest rates, the Company may incur higher costs depending on the contracted rate.

The fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt may fluctuate with changes in market interest rates. A hypothetical one percentage point decrease in interest rates as of June 30, 2024 would increase the fair value of the Company's debt as at June 30, 2024 by approximately $1.8 billion (June 30, 2023 - approximately $1.9 billion). Fair values of the Company’s fixed rate debt are estimated by considering the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on quoted market prices and current borrowing rates, but do not consider other factors that could impact actual results.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As at June 30, 2024, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of the Company's management, including its CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at June 30, 2024, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company has not identified any changes in internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

For further details refer to Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 14 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 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("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 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors from the information provided in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
