CSX [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] Form 10-K p.8
As COVID-19 [removed: has] [added: and its variant strains have] spread globally, including significant impacts in the United States, CSX continues to take a variety of measures to ensure the availability of its transportation services, promote the safety and security of its employees and support the communities in which it operates.
In addition, COVID-19 and the related initiatives to reduce transmission [removed: may result] [added: have resulted] in greater supply chain disruption, which could continue to [removed: have an adverse] impact [removed: on] volumes and make it more difficult for the Company to serve its customers.
The extent to which [removed: this coronavirus impacts] [added: COVID-19 continues to impact] operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, [removed: new information which may emerge concerning] [added: its effects on demand for] the [removed: severity of this coronavirus] [added: Company’s transportation services] and the [removed: actions] [added: supply chain, as well as the effect of governmental regulations imposed in response] to [removed: contain] the [removed: coronavirus or treat its impact, among others.][added: pandemic.]
Moreover, operations [removed: could be] [added: are] negatively affected [removed: if] [added: when] a significant number of employees are quarantined as the result of exposure to a contagious illness.
To the extent COVID-19 adversely affects the Company's business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described [removed: under Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of this annual report on Form 10-K.][added: herein.]
The [removed: performance] [added: security, stability] and [removed: reliability] [added: availability] of the [removed: Company's] [added: Company’s and its key third-party vendors’] technology systems are critical to its ability to operate [removed: and compete] safely and [removed: effectively.][added: effectively and to compete within the transportation industry.]
A [removed: cybersecurity attack, which is a deliberate theft of] [added: successful] data [added: breach, cyber-attack,] or [removed: impairment] [added: the occurrence] of [added: any similar incident that impacts the Company’s or its key third-party vendors’] information technology [removed: systems, or other significant disruption or failure,] [added: systems] could result in a service interruption, train accident, misappropriation of confidential [removed: information,] [added: or proprietary information (including personal information),] process failure, [removed: security breach] or other operational difficulties.
A disruption or compromise of the [removed: Company's] [added: Company’s] information technology systems, even for short periods of time, [added: and any resulting theft or compromise of Company confidential or proprietary information (including personal information),] could [added: adversely affect the Company’s business or reputation, create significant legal, regulatory or financial exposure and] have a material adverse [removed: effect.][added: impact on CSX’s business, financial condition or operations.]

Network [added: or supply chain] constraints could have a negative impact on [removed: service and] [added: service,] operating [removed: efficiency.][added: efficiency or volume of shipments.]
CSXT could experience rail network difficulties related to: (i) unpredictable increases in demand; (ii) locomotive or crew shortages; (iii) [added: labor shortages or other service disruptions in the supply chain affecting trucking, ports, handling facilities, customer facilities or other railroads; (iv) reductions in availability of pooled equipment, including chassis; (v)] extreme weather conditions; [removed: (iv)] [added: (vi)] impacts from changes in yard capacity, or network structure or composition, including train routes; [removed: (v)] [added: (vii)] increased passenger activities; or [removed: (vi)] [added: (viii)] regulatory changes [added: resulting in forced access or] impacting where and how fast CSXT can transport freight or maintain routes, which could impact CSXT's operational fluidity, leading to deterioration of service, asset utilization and overall efficiency.

[removed: If] [added: Changes in] natural gas [removed: prices were to remain low, additional coal-fired plants] [added: prices, or other factors impacting demand for electricity,] could [removed: be displaced,] [added: impact future power generation at coal-fired plants,] which would [removed: likely further reduce] [added: affect] the Company's domestic coal volumes and revenues.
CSX [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] Form 10-K p.11
Although the Company [removed: believes that it has] [added: strives to maintain] adequate resources and personnel for the current business environment, unpredictable increases in demand for rail services or extreme weather conditions may exacerbate such risks, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s operational efficiency and otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity in a particular period.
CSX 2021 Form 10-K p.7
The duration of the pandemic is dependent on several factors, including the impacts of virus variants and case resurgences across the country.
The Company, its third-party vendors and other companies in the rail and transportation industries have been subject to, and are likely to continue to be the target of, data breaches, cyber-attacks and other similar incidents.
These incidents may include, among other things, malware, ransomware, distributed denial of service attacks, social engineering, phishing, theft, malfeasance or improper access by employees or third-party vendors, human error, fraud, or other modes of attack or disruption.
Attacks of these nature are increasing in frequency, levels of persistence, intensity and sophistication.
Further, the Company may be at increased risk of a cyber-attack as a result of being a component of the critical U.S. infrastructure.
As cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, the Company may be required to expend significant additional resources to continue to modify or enhance its protective measures or to investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities, data breaches, cyber-attacks or other similar incidents.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic also increases the risk that the Company or its third-party vendors may experience cybersecurity incidents as a result of employees, third-party vendors and other third parties with which they interact working remotely on less secure systems and environments.
Despite the Company’s efforts to protect its information technology systems, it may not be able to prevent or anticipate all data breaches, cyber-attacks or other similar incidents, detect or react to such incidents in a timely manner or adequately remediate any such incident.
While CSX’s security protocols have detected attempts to gain unauthorized access to the Company’s information technology systems, none of such attempts have resulted in any material breach of or disruption to the Company’s systems.
For example, CSX has experienced distributed denial of service attacks that have resulted in brief system disruptions, but none have resulted in access to CSX systems.
Additionally, despite routine security assessment of the Company’s key third-party vendors, some vendors have experienced cyber-attacks in the past, but none of such attacks have had a material adverse impact on CSX’s business or operations.
Due to applicable laws and regulations or contractual obligations, CSX may be held responsible for data breaches, cyber-attacks or other similar incidents attributed to its third-party vendors as they relate to the information CSX shares with them.
Over time, changing dynamics in the U.S. and global energy markets have resulted in lower energy production from coal-fired power plants in CSX's service territory.
Such an event could result in decreased revenues and increased capital, insurance or operating costs, including increased security costs to protect the Company's infrastructure.
Insurance maintained by the Company to protect against loss of business and other related consequences resulting from cyber incidents may not be sufficient to cover all damages.
Increases in production and source locations of natural gas in the U.S. have resulted in lower natural gas prices in CSX’s service territory.
As a result of sustained low natural gas prices, many coal-fired power plants have been displaced by natural gas-fired power generation facilities.
Additionally, crude oil prices combined with changes in pipeline capacity have resulted in volatility in domestic crude oil production, which has affected crude oil volumes for CSX.

*(b) Effective third quarter 2021, Trucking revenue is comprised of revenue from the operations of Quality Carriers, which was acquired by CSX effective July 1, 2021.*
Total revenue increased $1.9 billion in 2021, or 18%, when compared to the previous year due to higher volume, the inclusion of Quality Carriers' results, pricing gains, increases in other revenue and higher fuel recovery.
Chemicals - Decreased due to lower shipments of crude oil and other energy-related commodities, partially offset by higher shipments of core chemicals and waste.
Agricultural and Food Products - Increased as a result of higher shipments of vegetable oils, ethanol, and food and consumer products.
Minerals - Increased as a result of higher shipments of cement, lime and limestone.
Automotive - Decreased due to lower vehicle production at plants served by CSX, which were impacted by shortages of semiconductors and other parts.
Metals and Equipment - Increased as growth across the metals markets was partially offset by reduced equipment shipments.
Fertilizers - Increased due to higher long-haul fertilizer shipments, partially offset by lower short-haul phosphate shipments.
The increase in export coal was driven by higher international shipments of both thermal coal and metallurgical coal.
Domestic coal increased due to higher shipments of utility coal as well as higher steel and industrial shipments.
Trucking Revenue
Trucking revenue increased $410 million versus prior year due to the inclusion of Quality Carriers' results.
Other revenue increased $336 million versus prior year due to increases in revenue for intermodal storage and equipment usage as well as higher affiliate and demurrage revenue.
In 2021, total expenses increased $707 million, or 11%, compared to prior year.
These expenses increased $275 million due to the following items:
- Inflation and higher volume resulted in $133 million of increased expenses.
- Incentive compensation increased $123 million primarily due to higher expected payouts in the current year, including accelerated expense for certain employees.

Global economic uncertainty, including the effects of COVID-19 global pandemic, continues to impact the Company's results of operations.
While operating cash flows have also been impacted by these economic conditions, the Company maintains a strong cash balance and access to committed funding sources and other sources of external liquidity if required.
As this is a dynamic situation, it is difficult to determine the future impacts of the pandemic.
Policies and procedures established to protect the health and safety of employees and customers and to safeguard CSX operations include rigorous cleaning regimens for equipment and facilities, provision of sanitation supplies, distribution of disposable face coverings, facilitation of social distancing measures and administration of temperature testing at certain facilities.
These precautions remain in place despite the easing of pandemic restrictions by state and local governments across the network.
Additionally, remote work arrangements have been made where possible in order to reduce the density of employees in a single location, and alternative locations for key functions, such as dispatch, are being utilized as needed.
In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted to provide relief to businesses in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The most significant remaining impact to the Company is the deferral of certain payroll tax payments to 2021 and 2022.
The provisions of the CARES Act are not expected to have an impact on CSX’s results of operations or effective tax rate.

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted overall volume in 2020.
Total revenue decreased $1.4 billion, in 2020 or 11%, when compared to the previous year due to declines in coal, lower merchandise volumes, decreases in fuel recovery and lower other revenue.
These decreases were partially offset by pricing increases in merchandise and volume and pricing increases in intermodal.
Chemicals - Declined due to reduced frac sand and waste shipments, partially offset by growth in plastics shipments.
Agricultural and Food Products - Decreased due to lower shipments of feed grain as well as food and consumer products, partially offset by growth in sweeteners and oils.
Automotive - Declined due to lower North American vehicle production.
Minerals - Decreased due to lower shipments for aggregates and other minerals.
Metals and Equipment - Declined due to lower metals shipments, primarily in the steel, construction and scrap markets, as well as reduced equipment shipments.
Fertilizers - Declined due to reduced short-haul phosphate shipments.
Domestic coal declined primarily due to lower shipments of utility coal as a result of continued competition from natural gas and reduced electrical demand, as well as lower steel and industrial shipments due to lower industrial production.
Export coal declined due to reduced international shipments of thermal and metallurgical coal as a result of lower global benchmark prices.
Other revenue decreased $110 million versus prior year primarily due to lower affiliate revenue, lower revenue for demurrage and a favorable contract settlement with a customer in the prior year.
Interest expense increased $17 million as higher average debt balances were partially offset by lower average rates.
Other income decreased $69 million primarily due to a $38 million increase in debt repurchase expense and decreased interest income driven by lower interest rates, partially offset by higher average cash and short-term investment balances.
Income Tax Expense decreased $123 million primarily due to lower earnings before income taxes, partially offset by lower tax benefits from the impacts of stock option exercises and the vesting of other equity awards as well as prior year benefits from the resolution of certain state tax matters.

Train velocity was roughly in line with last year’s record performance, declining 1% relative to 2019.
Dwell increased by 8% compared to last year, while cars online decreased by 4% in 2020.
In 2020, the number of FRA reportable injuries reached a new all-time record low for the second consecutive year.
The number of FRA reportable train accidents remained at a record-low level, but a reduction in train miles negatively impacted the FRA train accident rate.
In 2020, CSX issued a total of $1.0 billion of new long-term debt.
The Company also uses cash for scheduled payments of debt and leases.
PTC implementation is complete at a total cost of $2.4 billion, which included installing new equipment along tracks, upgrading locomotives, adding communication equipment and developing new technologies.
While the Company expects ongoing PTC costs, future PTC implementation costs are not expected to be material.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CSX Corporation (the Company) as of December 31, [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] and [removed: 2019,] [added: 2020,] and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in shareholders’ equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] and [removed: 2019,] [added: 2020,] and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February [removed: 10, 2021] [added: 16, 2022] expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

| *Description of the Matter* | | | At December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] assets depreciated under the group-life method comprised [removed: 87%] [added: 86%] of total gross fixed assets of [removed: $45.5] [added: $46.5] billion. As discussed in Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements, the group-life method aggregates assets with similar lives and characteristics into groups and depreciates each of these groups as a whole. When using the group-life method, an underlying assumption is that each group of assets, as a whole, is used and depreciated to the end of the group’s recoverable life. The Company utilizes different depreciable asset categories to account for depreciation expense for the railroad assets that are depreciated under the group-life method. Under the group-life method, depreciation studies are completed to review asset service lives, salvage values, accumulated depreciation and other factors related to group assets. Depreciation studies are performed every three years for equipment assets and every six years for road and track assets. A depreciation study was performed in 2019 for equipment assets and 2020 for road and track assets. The most recent depreciation studies are reviewed by management each year [added: through an annual data review] to determine if there have been significant factors that result in changes to the group-life method key assumptions. Auditing depreciation expense for assets subject to the group-life method was complex and required the involvement of specialists due to the nature of the methods used in the depreciation studies to determine the useful service lives and salvage values of the Company’s assets. These methods have a significant effect on depreciation expense. | | | | | | | | |
| *How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit* | | | We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s process related to the assessment of periodic depreciation studies [added: and annual data reviews] of its group-life assets. For example, we tested controls over management’s review of [removed: the depreciation study for road and track assets and review of depreciation expense and useful lives. We also tested controls over management’s review of] asset activity and assumptions that could impact the most recent depreciation study of equipment [added: and road and track] assets. To test the estimated useful lives and salvage values of the Company’s group-life assets, we performed audit procedures that included, among others: obtaining the periodic depreciation studies [added: and annual data reviews] provided by the Company’s third-party [removed: specialist and subsequent updates by management;] [added: specialist;] assessing the completeness and accuracy of the data provided [added: by management] to the third-party [removed: specialist and used by management;] [added: specialist;] and including a specialist on our team to evaluate the methods used by the third-party specialist and management in determining the average service lives and salvage values of assets to perform the depreciation [removed: studies.] [added: studies and any changes to the service lives and salvage values, if any, resulting from the annual data reviews.] We compared the significant methods used by management to those used throughout the industry and within other depreciation studies. We [removed: also] assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates via retrospective review and independently calculated [removed: a sample of] the [removed: annual] [added: current year] depreciation rates. | | | | | | | | |

*Acquisition of Pan-Am Railways*
On November 30, 2020, CSX signed a definitive agreement to acquire Pan Am Railways, Inc. (“Pan Am”) which owns and operates a highly integrated, nearly 1,200-mile rail network and has a partial interest in the more than 600-mile Pan Am Southern system.
This will expand CSX’s reach in Connecticut, New York and Massachusetts while adding Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine to its existing network.
A $30 million deposit paid by the Company related to its agreement to acquire Pan Am is included in other investing activities on the consolidated cash flow statement.
This transaction remains subject to regulatory review and approval by the Surface Transportation Board.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces current methods for evaluating impairment of financial instruments not measured at fair value, including trade accounts receivable and certain debt securities, with a current expected credit loss model.
CSX was required to adopt this new standard update by January 1, 2020.
Adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans as part of its disclosure effectiveness initiative, which modifies the disclosure requirements for employer-sponsored defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans.
Adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's disclosures.
At December 31, 2020, approximately $889 million of authority remained under this program.
During 2018, the Company completed four accelerated share repurchase agreements under the October 2017 program.
Under these agreements, the Company paid $1.5 billion and received approximately 22 million total shares.

PART I
*Human Capital*
Compared to 2019, both the number of injuries and the number of man-hours declined in 2020.
See Item 7.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for operating revenue, operating income and total assets for each of the last three fiscal years.
*Positive Train Control*
In 2008, Congress enacted the Rail Safety Improvement Act, which included a mandate that all Class I freight railroads implement an interoperable positive train control system (“PTC”) by the initial deadline of December 31, 2015.
Subsequently, the Positive Train Control Enforcement and Implementation Act of 2015 extended this deadline.
In accordance with this Act, the Company completed installation of all PTC hardware by December 31, 2018, and the PTC system was fully operational and interoperable before December 31, 2020.
PTC is designed to prevent train-to-train collisions, over-speed derailments, incursions into established work-zone limits, and train diversions onto another set of tracks.
PTC must be installed on all main lines with passenger and commuter operations as well as most of those over which toxic-by-inhalation hazardous materials are transported.
While the Company expects ongoing PTC costs, PTC implementation is complete at a total cost of $2.4 billion.
Implementation costs included installing new equipment along tracks, upgrading locomotives, adding communication equipment and developing new technologies.
