NOTE 2. Earnings Per Share, Continued

     Certain potentially dilutive common shares at AprilJuly 1, 2005, and March 26,June 25, 2004 were excluded from the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution, since their related option exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares during the period. The following table indicates information about potentially dilutive common shares excluded from the computation of earnings per share:
         
  Quarters Ended 
  April 1, 2005  March 26, 2004 
Number of Shares (Thousands)  7,431   18,400 
Average Exercise / Conversion Price $47.16  $42.43 

         
  Quarters Ended 
  July 1, 2005  June 25, 2004 
Number of Shares (Millions)  7   22 
Average Exercise / Conversion Price $47.61  $40.82 
     In September 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on Issue No. 04-8, “The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings Per Share.” The EITF states that contingently convertible debt instruments are subject to the “if-converted” method under SFAS 128, Earnings Per Share, regardless of fulfillment of any of the contingent features included in the instrument. Consequently, CSX is required to include approximately 10 million shares underlying its convertible debt instrumentdebentures using the “if-converted” method in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution. Additionally, earnings per share, assuming dilution, has been restated for all prior periods presented.

     A substantial increase in the fair market value of the Company’s stock price could trigger contingent conditions for conversion and allow holders to convert their debentures into CSX common stock and thus negatively impact basic earnings per share.

NOTE 3. Discontinued Operations

     CSX sold its International Terminals business, onwhich included the capital stock of SL Service, Inc. (“SLSI”), in February 22, 2005 for closing cash consideration of $1.142 billion, subject to final working capital and long-term debt adjustments that have yet to be determined. Of the gross proceeds, approximately $110 million was paid for the purchase of a minority interest in an International Terminals’ subsidiary, acquired during the first quarter of 2005 and divested as part of the sale to Dubai Ports International FZE.FZE (“DPI”). Other related cash transaction costs amounted to approximately $32 million. The Company has paid and expects to tendermake additional substantial income tax payments attributable to the transaction. The Company is considering various options regarding the use of net cash proceeds including, but not limited to, reduction of debt and other general corporate purposes.

     CSX recognized income of $683 million pretax, $428 million after tax, for the quartersix months ended AprilJuly 1, 2005 as a result of the sale. Discontinued Operations for the threesix months ended AprilJuly 1, 2005 also includes revenue of $14 million and an after-tax loss on operations of $3 million from the International Terminals business.

business through the closing date of the transaction in February 2005. Discontinued operations for the quarter and six months ended June 25, 2004 include revenue of $38 million and $86 million, respectively.

     SLSI also holds certain residual assets and liabilities as a result of prior divestitures and discontinuances. A wholly-owned subsidiary of CSX retains the rights to those assets and indemnifies DPI, SLSI and related entities against those liabilities pursuant to a separate agreement. CSX guarantees the obligations of its subsidiary under this separate agreement.
     The results of operations and financial position of the Company’s former International Terminals business are reported as Discontinued Operations for all periods presented. Additional information about the sale is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

NOTE 4. Debt and Credit Agreements

     In February 2004, the Company executed a $100 million bank financing that matured February 25, 2005, which bore interest at a rate that varied with LIBOR plus an applicable spread. The Company settled this obligation with cash at maturity.

     In December 2003, CSX executed a $75 million revolving loan facility with a maturity date in 2005. Borrowings under the facility bore interest at a rate that fluctuated with LIBOR. In addition, the Company paid an annual commitment fee of 0.15% for the period the facility was not drawn. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had $75 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding under this borrowing. In JanuaryJune 2005, the Company repurchased $1.0 billion of its publicly-traded notes listed below pursuant to offers to purchase that commenced in May 2005, and expired in June 2005.

NOTE 6. New Accounting Pronouncements

     SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure — an amendment of SFAS 123” was issued in

     In December 2002. SFAS 148 amends SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition to Statement 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and requires disclosure of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation. Effective beginning with fiscal year 2003, CSX has voluntarily adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 and adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS 148. In accordance with the prospective method of adoption permitted under SFAS 148, stock-based awards issued subsequent to fiscal year 2002 are accounted for under the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 utilizing the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation method and, accordingly, are expensed.

     The Company recognized pretax expense of $1 million and $7 million in fiscal quarters ended April 1, 2005, and March 26, 2004, respectively, for stock options granted in May 2003. Stock compensation expense for the fiscal quarter ended March 26, 2004 includes $5 million pretax recorded in conjunction with the Company’s management restructuring related to recognition of unamortized expense for 2003 stock option awards retained by terminated employees (see Note 16. Management Restructuring). In addition to stock option expense, stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net income consists of restricted stock awards, stock issued to directors and the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program for all periods presented.

NOTE 6. New Accounting Pronouncements, Continued

     On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which is a revision of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. Currently, the Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the value of stock options granted to employees and expects to continue to use this acceptable option valuation model upon the required adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006. BecauseCompensation cost for unvested awards that were not recognized under SFAS 123 will be recognized under SFAS 123(R). The new rules must be applied not only to new and existing unvested awards but to previously granted awards that are not fully vested on the effective date, and because thedate. The Company adopted SFAS 123 using the prospective transition method (which applied only to awards granted, modified or settled after the adoption date), compensation cost for some previously granted awards that were not recognized under SFAS 123 will be recognized under SFAS 123(R). However, hadHad CSX adopted SFAS 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximatedestimated the impact of SFAS 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share above.in Note 5. Share-Based Compensation. SFAS 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 123(R) on its consolidated financial statements, but does not expect the impact to be material.

     In 2003,

     Currently, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,”Company’s stock-based employee compensation expense is recognized over the amortization period which requires a variable interest entity (“VIE”) to be consolidated by a company thatcould continue beyond the date an employee is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE’s activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns, or both. Interpretation No. 46 also requires disclosures about VIEs that a company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. Also in 2003, Interpretation 46 (“46R”), a revision to FASB Interpretation No. 46, was issued to clarify some of the provisions of, and to exempt certain entities from, Interpretation 46 requirements. Under the rules of the new guidance, CSX consolidated Four Rivers Transportation (“FRT”), a shortline railroad, into its financial statements at the beginning of fiscal year 2004. Theeligible for retirement. Upon adoption of Interpretation No. 46SFAS 123(R), if the Company allows retirement eligibility (which is based on age and years of service) for new stock awards granted, the expense recognition period for these awards will not haveextend beyond the date an employee is eligible for retirement, resulting in the Company recognizing this expense over a material impact on resultsshorter period of operations in future reporting periods. Previously, FRT was accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

NOTE 7. Investment in and Integrated Rail Operations with Conrail

     In August 2004, the ownership of portions of the Conrail Inc. (“Conrail”) system already operated by CSX Transportation, IncInc. (“CSXT”) and Norfolk Southern Railway Company (“NSR”), were transferred to and therefore directly owned by CSXT and NSR, and the parties consummated an exchange offer of new unsecured securities for unsecured securities of Conrail. Conrail’s secured debt and lease obligations are supported by new leases and subleases which became the direct lease and sublease obligations of CSXT and NSR.

     The Company recorded this spin-off transaction at fair value based on the results of an independent valuation. Since September 2004, the impact of the transaction has been included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Income Statements.

     As a result of the transaction, the assets and liabilities transferred to CSXT are reflected in their respective line items in CSX’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

     Additional information about this transaction is included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Accounting and Financial Reporting Effects

     Prior to the spin-off transaction, CSX’s rail and intermodal operating revenue includes revenue from traffic moving on Conrail property. Operating expenses include costs incurred to handle such traffic and operate the Conrail lines. Rail operating expense includes an expense category, “Conrail Rents, Fees and Services,” which reflects:

1.  Right-of-way usage fees to Conrail through August 2004.
2.  Equipment rental payments to Conrail through August 2004.
3.  Transportation, switching, and terminal service charges provided by Conrail in the Shared Assets Areas that Conrail operates for the joint benefit of CSX and NSR.
4.  Amortization of the fair value write-up arising from the acquisition of Conrail and certain other adjustments.
5.  CSX’s 42% share of Conrail’s income before the cumulative effect of accounting change recognized under the equity method of accounting.

     Conrail will continue to own, manage, and operate the Shared Assets Areas for the joint benefit of CSXT and NSR. However, the spin-off transaction effectively decreased rents paid to Conrail after the transaction date, as some assets previously leased from Conrail are now owned by CSXT.

May 1, 2007  450   7.45%
May 1, 2032  150   8.30%
        
Total/Average $694   7.84%
     Under these agreements, the Company will pay variable interest based on LIBOR in exchange for a fixed rate, effectively transforming the notes to floating rate obligations. The interest rate swap agreements are designated and qualify as fair value hedges and the gain or loss on the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the fixed rate note attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current earnings during the period of change in fair values. Hedge effectiveness is measured at least quarterly based on the relative change in fair value of the derivative contract in comparison with changes over time in the fair value of the fixed rate notes. Any change in fair value resulting from ineffectiveness, as defined by SFAS 133, “Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” is recognized immediately in earnings. The Company’s interest rate swaps qualify as perfectly effective fair value hedges, as defined by SFAS 133. As such, there was no ineffective portion to the hedge recognized in earnings during the current or prior year periods. Long-term debt has been increased by $14$11 million and $26 million for the fair market value of the interest rate swap agreements at AprilJuly 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

     The differential to be paid or received under these agreements is accrued based on the terms of the agreements and is recognized in interest expense over the term of the related debt. The related amounts payable to or receivable from counterparties are included in other current liabilities or assets. Cash flows related to interest rate swap agreements are classified as Operating Activities in the Consolidated Cash Flow Statements. For the quartersquarter and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2005, and March 26, 2004, the Company reduced interest expense by approximately $5$3 million and $13$8 million, respectively, as a result of the interest rate swap agreements that were in place during each period. For the quarter and six-month period ended June 25, 2004, the Company reduced interest expense by approximately $8 million and $21 million, respectively. Fair value adjustments are non-cash transactions and, accordingly, have no cash impact on the Consolidated Cash Flow Statements.

     In June 2005, the Company purchased $206 million in aggregate principal amount of its publicly-traded 9% Notes due 2006 (see Note 4. Debt and Credit Agreements), and settled an identical portion of the corresponding interest rate swap agreement. The partial settlement of this interest rate swap agreement resulted in no effect on results of operations for the quarter ended July 1, 2005.
     The counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements expose the Company to credit loss in the event of non-performance. The Company does not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties.

Fuel Hedging

     In the third quarter of 2003, CSX began a program to hedge a portion of its future locomotive fuel purchases. This program was established to manage exposure to fuel price fluctuations. In order to minimize this risk, CSX has entered into a series of swaps in order to fix the price of a portion of its estimated future fuel purchases.

     Following is a summary of outstanding fuel swaps:
     
  April 1, 
  2005 
Approximate Gallons Hedged (Millions)  271 
Average Price Per Gallon $0.80 
Swap Maturities April 2005 - July 2006
         
  2005  2006 
Estimated % of Future Fuel Purchases Hedged at April 1, 2005  47%  9%
       

July 1,
2005
Approximate Gallons Hedged (Millions)187
Average Price Per Gallon$0.81
Swap MaturitiesJuly 2005 — July 2006
         
  2005  2006 
   
Estimated % of Future Fuel Purchases Hedged at end of period  43%  9%
     The program limits fuel hedges to a 24-month duration and a maximum of 80% of CSX’s average monthly fuel purchased for any month within the 24-month period, and places the hedges among selected counterparties. Fuel hedging activity favorably impacted fuel expense for the quarter and six months ended AprilJuly 1, 2005 by $51 million. There was no material impact on$63 million and $114 million, respectively. Fuel hedging activity favorably impacted fuel expense for the quarter and six months ended March 26, 2004.June 25, 2004 by $4 million. Ineffectiveness, or the extent to which changes in the fair values of the fuel swaps did not offset changes in the fair values of the expected fuel purchases, was immaterial.

     These instruments qualify, and are designated by management, as cash-flow hedges of variability in expected future cash flows attributable to fluctuations in fuel prices. The fair values of fuel derivative instruments are determined based upon current fair market values as quoted by third party dealers and are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with offsetting adjustments to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, a component of Shareholders’ Equity. Amounts are reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss as the underlying fuel that was hedged is consumed by rail operations. Fair value adjustments are non-cash transactions and, accordingly, have no cash impact on the Consolidated Cash Flow Statements. See Note 1. Basis of Presentation, for the impact of fuel hedging activity on Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

     The Company has temporarily suspended entering into new swaps in its fuel hedge program since the third quarter of 2004. The Company will continue to monitor and assess the current issues facing the global fuel market placemarketplace to decide whether and when to resume hedging under the program.

     The counterparties to the fuel hedge agreements expose the Company to credit loss in the event of non-performance. The Company does not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties.

Casualty Reserves

     Casualty reserves represent accruals for the uninsured portion of personal injury and occupational injury claims.

Personal Injury

     CSX retains an independent actuarial firm to assist management in assessing the value of CSX’s personal injury portfolio. An analysis is performed by the independent actuarial firm semi-annually. The methodology used by the actuary includes a development factor to reflect growth in the value of the Company’s personal injury claims. This methodology is based largely on CSX’s historical claims and settlement activity. Actual results may vary from estimates due to the type and severity of the injury, costs of medical treatments, and uncertainties surrounding the litigation process. Reserves for personal injury claims are $388$401 million and $383 million at AprilJuly 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

     While the final outcome of casualty-related matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering among other things the meritorious legal defenses available and liabilities that have been recorded, it is the opinion of CSX management that none of these items, when finally resolved, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity. However, should a number of these items occur in the same period, it could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations in a particular quarter or fiscal year.

Occupational

     Occupational claims include allegations of exposure to certain materials in the work place, such as asbestos, solvents, and diesel fuel, or alleged physical injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome or hearing loss.

     Reserves for asbestos related claims are $198 million and $212 million at July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. Reserves for other occupational related claims are $108 million and $110 million at July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.
     The Company is party to a number of occupational claims by employees exposed to asbestos in the workplace. The heaviest exposure for CSX employees was due to work conducted in and around the use of steam locomotive engines that were phased out between the early 1950’s and late 1960’s. However, other types of exposures, including exposure from locomotive component parts and building materials, continued after 1967, until it was substantially eliminated by 1985.

NOTE 12.11. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, Continued

     Asbestos and other occupational claim filings against the Company have been inconsistent. Accordingly, while the Company had concluded that a probable loss had occurred, it did not believe it could estimate the range of reasonably possible loss because of the lack of experience with such claims and the lack of detailed employment records for the population of exposed employees. Claim filings increased and when they continued into 2003, the Company concluded that an estimate for incurred but not reported asbestos exposure liability needed to be recorded.

     CSX engaged a third party specialist, who has extensive experience in performing asbestos and other occupational studies, to assist in assessing the unasserted liability exposure. The analysis is performed by the specialist semi-annually. The objective of the analysis is to determine the number of estimated incurred but not reported claims and the estimated average cost per claim to be received over the next seven years. Seven years was determined by management to be the time period in which claim filings and claim values could be estimated with more certainty.

     The methodology used by the specialistsspecialist includes an estimate of future anticipated claims based on the Company’s average historical claim filing rates, future anticipated dismissal rates and settlement rates. CSX’s future liability for incurred but not reported claims is estimated by multiplying the future anticipated claims by the average settlement values.

     In review of asbestos claims, the Company has observed that recent filing rates have declined. A trend in declining filing rates could result in a reduction of the reserve for asbestos related claims. Because the pace of asbestos claim filings have been inconsistent, the Company has not yet determined the decline to be a trend.
     A summary of existing asbestos and other occupational claims activity is as follows:
                
 Quarter Ended Year Ended  Six Months Ended Twelve Months Ended 
 April 1, 2005 December 31, 2004  July 1, 2005 December 31, 2004

Open Claims — End of Period 11,339 11,460  10,842 11,460 
          

     Approximately 6,000 of the open claims at July 1, 2005 are asbestos claims against the Company’s previously owned international container-shipping business, Sea-Land. Because the Sea-Land claims are against multiple vessel owners, the Company’s reserves reflect its portion of those claims. The remaining open claims have been asserted against CSXT. The Company had approximately $13 million reserved for the Sea-Land claims at July 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004.
     The amounts recorded by CSX for the occupational liabilities are based upon currently known facts. Projecting future events, such as the number of new claims to be filed each year, the average cost of disposing of claims, as well as the numerous uncertainties surrounding asbestos and other occupational litigation in the United States, could cause the actual costs to be higher or lower than projected.
     While the final outcome of casualty-related matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering among other things the meritorious legal defenses available and liabilities that have been recorded, it is the opinion of CSX management that none of these items, when finally resolved, will have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity. However, should a number of these items occur in the same period, it could have a materially adverse effect on the results of operations in a particular quarter or fiscal year.

NOTE 12. Casualty, Environmental and Other Reserves, Continued

Environmental Reserves

     CSX is a party to various proceedings, including administrative and judicial proceedings, involving private parties and regulatory agencies related to environmental issues. CSX has been identified as a PRPpotentially responsible party (“PRP”) at approximately 251262 environmentally impaired sites, many of which are, or may be, subject to remedial action under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), also known as the Superfund law, or similar state statutes. A number of these proceedings are based on allegations that CSX, or its railroad predecessors, sent hazardous substances to the facilities in question for disposal.

     In addition, some of CSX’s land holdings are and have been used for industrial or transportation-related purposes or leased to commercial or industrial companies whose activities may have resulted in releases onto the property. Therefore, CSX is subject to environmental cleanup and enforcement actions including under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), also known as the Superfund law, as well as similar state laws that may impose joint and several liability for cleanup and enforcement costs on current and former owners and operators of a site without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, which could be substantial. In the fourth quarter of 2004, CSX added $6 million of Conrail environmental claims, due to the Conrail spin-off transaction.

     At least once a quarter, CSX reviews its role with respect to each site identified. Based on the review process, CSX has recorded reserves to cover estimated contingent future environmental costs with respect to such sites. Environmental costs are charged to expense when they relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and do not contribute to current or future revenue generation. The recorded liabilities for estimated future environmental costs at AprilJuly 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004 were $60 million and $59 million, respectively. These liabilities, which are undiscounted, include amounts representing CSX’s estimate of unasserted claims, which CSX believes to be immaterial. The liability includes future costs for all sites where the Company’s obligation is (1) deemed probable and (2) where such costs can be reasonably estimated. The liability includes future costs for remediation and restoration of sites as well as any significant ongoing monitoring costs, but excludes any anticipated insurance recoveries.

     The Company does not currently possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of additional liabilities, if any, on some sites until completion of future environmental studies. In addition, latent conditions at any given location could result in exposure, the amount and materiality of which cannot presently be reliably estimated. Based upon information currently available, however, the Company believes its environmental reserves are adequate to accomplish remedial actions to comply with present laws and regulations, and that the ultimate liability for these matters, if any, will not materially affect its overall results of operations and financial condition.

Separation Liability

     Separation liabilities at April 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004 provide for the estimated costs of implementing workforce reductions, improvements in productivity and other cost reductions at the Company’s major transportation units since 1991. These liabilities are expected to be paid out over the next 15 to 20 years through general corporate funds.

NOTE 13.12. Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

     The Company has a commitment under a long-term maintenance program for approximately 40% of CSX’s fleet of locomotives. The agreement expires in 2026 and approximatesthe costs expected to be incurred under the agreement approximate $5.8 billion. The long-term maintenance program is intended to provide CSX access to efficient, high-quality locomotive maintenance services at fixed price levels through the term of the program. Under the program, CSX paid $41$43 million and $37$84 million for the quartersquarter and six months ending AprilJuly 1, 2005, respectively. The Company paid $38 million and March 26,$75 million during the quarter and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively.

     The Company has various commitments to purchase technology and communications services. The terms for the various agreements call for CSX to pay $36 million, $29 million and $26 million for the fiscal years ending 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The largest obligation is for purchased communications services of $24 million per year for the years 2005 through 2007.

STB Proceeding

     In 2001 Duke Energy Corporation (“Duke”) filed a complaint before the STB alleging that certain CSX common carrier coal rates were unreasonably high. In February 2004, the STB issued a decision finding that the CSX common carrier rates were reasonable. While approving the rate levels, the STB also invited Duke to request a phase-in of rate increases over some time period. The nature and amount of any such phase-in is uncertain, and would only apply to billings subsequent to December 2001. In October 2004, the STB issued a decision denying Duke’s petition for reconsideration of its February 2004 ruling. In November 2004, Duke advised the STB that it would request phase-in relief, and filed a Petition for Review of the STB’s decisions in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. CSX will continue to consider and pursue all available legal defenses in this matter. Administrative proceedings and legal appeals could take several years to resolve. A favorable outcome could result in gain realization in amounts that could be material to results of operations in the quarters received.

Self-Insurance

     The Company uses a combination of third-party and self-insurance, obtaining substantial amounts of commercial insurance for potential losses for third-party liability and property damages. Specified levels of risk (up to $35 million for property and $25 million for liability per occurrence) are retained on a self-insurance basis.

STB Proceeding
     In 2001 Duke Energy Corporation (“Duke”) filed a complaint before the STB alleging that certain CSXT common carrier coal rates were unreasonably high. In June 2005, CSXT and Duke reached a settlement agreement pursuant to which Duke dismissed the STB proceedings with prejudice. Consequently, the Company reversed a $17 million reserve which increased coal, coke and iron ore revenue in the second quarter of 2005. Duke and CSXT have entered into a transportation contract establishing commercial terms for the future transportation of coal to Duke power plants served by CSXT.
Insurance
     The Company maintains numerous insurance programs, most notably for third party casualty liability and the CSX property damage and business interruption property insurance with substantial limits; a specific amount of risk ($25 million per occurrence) is retained by the Company on both programs.
Guarantees

     The Company and its subsidiaries are contingently liable individually and jointly with others as guarantors of obligations principally relating to leased equipment, joint ventures and joint facilities used by the Company in its business operations. Utilizing the Company’s guarantee for these obligations allows the obligor to take advantage of lower interest rates and obtain other favorable terms. Guarantees are contingent commitments issued by the Company that could require CSX or one of its affiliates to make payment to or to perform certain actions for the guaranteed party based on another entity’s failure to perform. As of AprilJuly 1, 2005, the Company’s three main guarantees can be segregated into two main categories:

are as follows:

 1. Guarantees of approximately $314$249 million relating to leases assumed as part of the conveyance of its interest in a former subsidiary, CSX Lines, (subsequently renamed to Horizon Lines LLC “Horizon”). CSX guarantees approximately $249 million relating to leases assumed as part of this conveyance. CSX believes Horizon will fulfill its contractual commitments with respect to such leases, and CSX will have no further liabilities for those obligations.
2.Guarantee of approximately $87 million of obligations of a former subsidiary, CSX Energy, in connection with a sale-leaseback transaction. The Company is, in turn, indemnified by several subsequent owners of the subsidiary against payments made with respect to this guarantee. CSX management does not expect that the Company will be required to make any payments under this guarantee for which CSX will not be reimbursed.
3.Guarantee of approximately $13 million of lease commitments assumed by A.P. Moller-Maersk (“Maersk”) for which the Company is contingently liable. CSX believes Maersk will fulfill its contractual commitments with respect to such leases,lease, and CSX will have no further liabilities for those obligations.
2.  Guarantees During the second quarter of 2005, Maersk assumed and the Company was consequently released from approximately $249$301 million relating to leases assumed as part of CSX’s conveyance of its interest in CSX Lines in February 2003, as discussed in Note 5. Divestitures.obligation for other lease commitments.

     Upon consummation of the sale of the International Terminals business in the first quarter of 2005, the Company was no longer liable for the guarantees related to construction and cash deficiency support at several of the Company’s international terminals locations under development.

     The maximum amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees is the amount of the guarantees themselves.

Other Legal Proceedings

     CSX is involved in routine litigation incidental to its business and is a party to a number of legal actions and claims, various governmental proceedings and private civil lawsuits, including those related to environmental matters, Federal Employers’ Liability Act claims by employees, other personal injury claims, and disputes and complaints involving certain transportation rates and charges. Some of the legal proceedings include claims for compensatory as well as punitive damages, and others purport to be class actions. While the final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering among other things, the meritorious legal defenses available and liabilities that have been recorded along with applicable insurance, it is the opinion of CSX management that none of these items will have a materialmaterially adverse effect on the results of operations, financial position or liquidity of CSX. However, an unexpected adverse resolution of one or more of these items could have a materialmaterially adverse effect on the results of operations in a particular quarter or fiscal year. The Company is also party to a number of actions, the resolution of which could result in gain realization in amounts that could be material to results of operations in the quarters received.

NOTE 14.13. Business Segments

     The Company operates primarily in two business segments: rail and intermodal. The rail segment provides rail freight transportation over a network of more than 22,000 route miles in 23 states, the District of Columbia and two Canadian provinces. The intermodal segment provides integrated rail and truck transportation services and operates a network of dedicated intermodal facilities across North America. The Company’s segments are strategic business units that offer different services and are managed separately. The rail and intermodal segments are also viewed on a combined basis as Surface Transportation operations.

     The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is business segment operating income. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies (Note 1) in the CSX 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Intersegment sales

NOTE 15.14. Employee Benefit Plans

     The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans, principally for salaried, non-contract personnel. The plans provide eligible employees with retirement benefits based predominantly on years of service and compensation rates near retirement.

     In addition to the defined benefit pension plans, the Company sponsors one medical plan and one life insurance plan that provide benefits to full-time, salaried, non-contract employees hired prior to January 1, 2003, upon their retirement if certain eligibility requirements are met. The postretirement medical plans are contributory (partially funded by retirees), with retiree contributions adjusted annually. The life insurance plan is non-contributory.

     The Company expects to contribute $2 million to its pension planplans in 2005.

As of July 1, 2005, CSX has contributed approximately $1 million to its pension plans.

     Due to the termination of employees under the management restructuring plan (see Note 16.15. Management Restructuring), a curtailment occurred in the Company’s defined benefit pension plans and postretirement medical plan. The estimated cost of the curtailments of $21$24 million was included in the management restructuring charge for the quartersix months ended March 26,June 25, 2004.
     The Company is required to estimate and record the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (“Act”). The Company believes its medical plan’s prescription drug benefit will qualify as actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D based upon a review by the plan’s health and welfare actuary of the plan’s prescription drug benefit compared with the prescription drug benefit that would be paid under Medicare Part D beginning in 2006.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

2005 Surface Transportation Highlights and Challenges

Revenue

     The firstsecond quarter of 2005 marked the 12th13th consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth. Revenue increased 10%8% or $188$169 million compared to the second quarter of 2004. Merchandise revenue increased 7% through continued yield management efforts and the Company’s fuel surcharge program. Within the merchandise market, all lines of business posted year-over-year drivenrevenue growth led by strong gains in metals and food and consumer products. Automotive revenue declined due to a reduction in production levels, primarily by increasedtraditional domestic manufacturers. Price increases and fuel surcharges in automotive helped to partially offset the lower demand for coal due to both increasedrail services. Coal experienced the most significant revenue gains as demand for transportation services was driven by higher electricity generation and rebuilding of utility stockpile inventory. In addition, demand created from a generally strong industrial economy, continued yield management strategies andinventories. Intermodal revenue was slightly favorable as revenue per unit increases largely offset the Company’s fuel surcharge program, drove the merchandise market to record revenue levels.

Volume

     Overall volume during the firstsecond quarter of 2005 increased 1%decreased 2% versus last year.the prior year comparable quarter. Volume growth achievedin coal could not overcome volume declines in other markets. Merchandise carloads fell 2% versus the prior year comparable quarter. Automotive volume levels declined due to lower production levels by coal traffic was partially offset bytraditional domestic manufacturers and diversions related to service problems. In addition, Intermodal experienced overall volume decreases from CSXI’sdeclines primarily attributable to the Network Simplification Initiative (“NSI”). NSIIn an effort to concentrate on more profitable business, Intermodal eliminated 26 weekly train starts in July 2004 through NSI creating an effort to improve overall contribution by consolidating volumes on fewer trains.

Fuel Costs and Fuel Surcharge Program

     Fuel expenses increased 16%17% to $179$176 million in the firstsecond quarter, net of $51$63 million ofin fuel hedging benefits, due principally to the rising price per gallon of diesel fuel. The average price per gallon of diesel fuel, including benefits from CSX’s fuel hedging program, was $1.1397$1.1905 in the firstsecond quarter of 2005 versus $1.0171$1.0410 in the firstsecond quarter of 2004. In addition, the fuel surcharge programs within Surface Transportation and contractual cost escalation clauses used in most multi-year customer contracts partially offset fuel cost increases.

(a)
Amounts for 2005 are estimated.

     The Company is focused on producing continuous improvement through several key initiatives. In the third quarter of 2004, CSX instituted a new network operating plan called the ONE Plan. The ONE Plan defines CSX’s scheduled train network and is designed to improve service reliability and efficiency. Although anticipated benefits have not been realized on a sustained basis, CSX remains committed to the ONE Plan. Efforts to refine the operating plan and raise the level of execution are ongoing. Adjustments are made as required to reflect changing traffic volumes and operating capabilities.
     In addition, CSX is working to improve its locomotive planning process. Locomotive availability and reliability is critical to the ONE Plan execution. The Company is also working to improve the performance of its major terminals and rail yards in 2005. The Standardized Terminal Processes (“STP”) initiative seeks to improve the process capability of CSX’s major terminals by documenting and analyzing terminal sub-processes. Primary activities in CSX terminals include switching rail cars to and from trains, fueling and servicing locomotives, and inspecting and repairing rail cars. Employee roles and responsibilities will be clearly documented and aligned across functional departments. These initiatives, combined with increased focus on training and development of operating managers, seek to develop a CSX culture that drives toward higher levels of plan execution.
Capital Investment
     CSX continues to invest in its infrastructure, locomotives, freight cars and technology to accommodate safe, efficient and reliable train operations. In anticipation of future volume growth in key corridors, the Company will continue to make strategic investments to increase its capacity as profitability targets are met. Investments under consideration include locomotives and track and terminal infrastructure expansion.

2005 Expectations

Revenue

     Revenue growth is expected to continue to outpace volume growth inthrough 2005 due to a continued emphasis on price.price and fuel surcharge. Lower contributory traffic is either being re-priced or replaced by longer haul, more profitable business. The amount of any revenue and volume increase depends on several factors:

Economy:Favorable economic conditions are expected based on the forecasts for key economic indicators such as the gross domestic product, industrial and automotive production as well asand overall import levels. Generally, CSX’s revenue is fairly diversified and a large portion is relatively insensitive to significant fluctuations in the general economy. However, changes in the macro economic environment do impact overall revenue growth.

Operational Performance:Service is expected to improve with more consistent execution of the ONE Plan, which should result in improved average velocity and a more reliable service product. Consequently, additional volume may be captured as freight car availability increases due to improved asset utilization and reduced transit times. If service does not improve, volume growth could be flat to slightly negative.

Fuel Prices:Because of the fuel surcharge program and cost escalation clauses in long-term contracts, which include a fuel element, a portion of CSX’s revenue varies with the price of fuel, but these mechanisms only partially offset the inflation in fuel prices.

Operations

     Improvement in

     The Company expects key operating measurements is targeted into show consistent improvement through the second half of 2005. Several factorsIn addition to the success of the initiatives outlined above, availability of resources can affect overall network performance and service levels:

Availability of Resources:levels. Locomotive and train and engine (“T&E”) employee availability are critical to operating plan execution. Management believes current resource plans, which include the hiring additionalof significant numbers of train and engine employees and the acquisition of 100 new locomotives in the second half of 2005, will be sufficient to manage anticipated volume while improving service levels.

support improved plan execution.

Volume:If volume growth significantly exceeds management’s expectations, additional train crew hiring and locomotive resources may be required, depending on the type and location of the volume growth. Deployment of additional resources could lag any surge in demand by several months due to the time required to hire and train employees or secure additional locomotives, subject to availability, which could negatively impact overall service levels during that period.

Risk Factors

Competition

     The Company experiences competition from other transportation providers including railroads and motor carriers that operate similar routes across its service area, and to a less significant extent barges, ships and pipelines. Transportation providers such as motor carriers and barges utilize public rights-of-way that are built and maintained by governmental entities while CSX and other railroads must build and maintain rail networks through the utilization of internal resources. If the scope and quality of these alternative methods of transportation are materially increased, or if legislation is passed providing materially greater opportunity for motor carriers with respect to size or weight restrictions, there could be a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Employees and Labor Union Relationships

     The Company considers employee relations with most of its unions generally to be good. Most of CSX’sCSXT’s employees are represented by labor unions and are covered by collective bargaining agreements. The bargaining agreements contain a moratorium clause that precludes serving new bargaining demands until a certain date. These agreements, which usually are bargained nationally by the National Railway Labor Conference, (“NRLC”), normally contain the same moratorium date so all bargaining on agreement changes generally begins at approximately the same time. A round of bargaining started in 2000 when the moratorium provisions expired. Agreements have been reached with all but one of the unions. NegotiationsThe Company has recently reached a tentative agreement with the union representing machinists, which awaits ratification by the machinists are in mediation. The machinists have asked the National Mediation Board to be released from mediation and the railroads have opposed that request. The machinists have sued the National Mediation Board seeking an order directing their release from mediation.

union members.

     Also, the agreements which were concluded in the 2000 bargaining round are now open for renegotiation. The process of renegotiating these agreements commenced in early November 2004 when the parties were free to serve their bargaining demands. Negotiations with eight of thirteen unions are in mediation. The outcome of the 2004 round of negotiations is uncertain at this time.

     In the rail industry, negotiations have generally taken place over a number of years and previously have not resulted in any extended work stoppages. The existing agreements continue to remain in effect until new agreements are reached. The parties are not permitted to either strike or lockout until the Railway Labor Act’s lengthy procedures (which include mediation, cooling-off periods, and the possibility of Presidential intervention) are exhausted.

RISK FACTORS, Continued
Environmental Laws and Regulation

     The Company’s operations are subject to wide-ranging federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations concerning, among other things, emissions to the air, discharges to water and the handling, storage, transportation and disposal of waste and other materials and cleanup of hazardous material or petroleum releases. The Company generates and transports hazardous and non-hazardous waste and materials in its current operations, and it has done so in its former operations. In certain circumstances, environmental liability can extend to formerly owned or operated properties, leased properties and properties owned by third parties, as well as to properties currently owned and used by the Company. Environmental liabilities have arisen and may also arise from claims asserted by adjacent landowners or other third parties in toxic tort litigation. The Company has been and may be subject to allegations or findings to the effect that it has violated, or is strictly liable under, environmental laws or regulations, and such violations can result in the Company’sCompany incurring fines, penalties or costs relating to the cleanup of environmental contamination. Although the Company has appropriately recorded current and long-term liabilities for known future environmental costs, it could incur significant costs as a result of any of the foregoing, and may be required to incur significant expenses to investigate and remediate known, unknown or future environmental contamination, which could have a material adverse effect on results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Fuel Costs

     Fuel costs represent a significant expense of the Company’s Surface Transportation operations. Fuel prices can vary significantly from period to period and significant increases may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results. Furthermore, fuel prices and supply are influenced considerably by international political and economic circumstances. IfThe Company has fuel surcharge revenue programs in place with a considerable number of customers. These programs have historically permitted the Company to recover a portion of increased fuel costs. Despite the Company’s fuel surcharge programs, if a fuel supply shortage arose from OPEC production restrictions, lower refinery outputs, a disruption of oil imports or otherwise, fuel shortages, higher fuel prices and any subsequent price increases could despite the Company’s fuel surcharge programs, materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.

Future Acts of Terrorism or War

     Terrorist attacks, such as those that occurred on September 11, 2001, or in Madrid, Spain onin March 11, 2004, or in London, England in July 2005, and any government response thereto or war may adversely affect results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. The Company’s rail lines and physical plant may be direct targets or indirect casualties of acts of terror, which could cause significant business interruption and result in increased costs and liabilities and decreased revenues and have a material adverse effect on operating results, financial condition or liquidity. In addition, insurance premiums charged for some or all of the coverage currently maintained by the Company could increase dramatically or the coverage may no longer be available.

RISK FACTORS, Continued
Regulation and Legislation

     The Company is subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the Surface Transportation Board (“STB”) of the United States Department of Transportation (“DOT”), the Federal Railroad Administration of DOT and other state and federal regulatory agencies as to rail operations and for a variety of economic, health, safety, labor, environmental and other matters. Legislation passed by Congress or regulations issued by these organizationsagencies can significantly affect the revenues, costs and profitability of the Company’s business. In addition,Moreover, the failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

In addition, Congressional efforts to reduce or eliminate funding for Amtrak, if successful, could result in significant costs to the Company, including, but not limited to: loss of revenue from trackage rights; uncertainty relating to operating agreements; loss of other contractual rights, such as indemnification; adverse network implications, such as potential coordination with numerous state commuter rail agencies; and increased payments into the Railroad Retirement system to supplement lost contributions from Amtrak and its employees.

     In response to the heightened threat of terrorism in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks, federal, state and local governmental bodies are proposing and beginning to adopt various legislation and regulations relating to security issues that affect the transportation industry, including rules and regulations that affect the transportation of hazardous materials. For instance, the District of Columbia recently enacted legislation that prohibits rail carriers, including CSXT, from transporting certain hazardous materials through the city. The Company, supported by the United States, is currently challenging the validity of this legislation in the federal courts. Although the Company and the Federal Government hashave secured favorable filingsrulings from the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and the Surface Transportation Board, legal proceedings continue and the ultimate outcome is uncertain. The extent to which other governmental bodies will ultimately take similar or related steps is also uncertain. Any legislation, regulations, or rules enacted by federal, state or local governmental bodies relating to security issues that affect rail and intermodal transportation have the potential to materially adversely affect the Company’s operations and costs.

Safety

     The Company faces inherent business risk of exposure to property damage and personal injury claims in the event of train accidents, including derailments. The Company is also subject to exposure to occupational injury claims. While the Company is working diligently to enhance its safety programs and to continue to raise the awareness levels of its employees concerning safety, the Company cannot ensure that it will not experience any material property damage, personal or occupational claims in the future or that it will not incur significant costs to defend such claims. Additionally, the Company cannot ensure that existing claims will not suffer adverse development not currently reflected in reserve estimates, as the ultimate outcome of existing claims is subject to numerous factors that are outside of the Company’s control. The Company engages outside parties to assist with the evaluation of certain of the occupational and personal injury claims, and believes that it is adequately reserved to cover all potential claims. However, final amounts determined to be due on any outstanding matters may differ materially from the recorded reserves.

Rail Operating Revenue
Merchandise
     The second quarter of 2005 represents the 13th consecutive quarter of year-over-year merchandise revenue growth, as well as record revenue-per-car results. All markets experienced quarter-over-quarter revenue and revenue-per-car gains as a result of continued yield management and fuel surcharges. Efforts to increase price and fuel surcharge customer coverage continue across all lines of business. CSX experienced slight volume declines in five of seven markets. However emerging markets and food and consumer, both of which include new business opportunities, delivered quarter-over-quarter volume growth.
Agricultural — The large corn crop harvested in 2004 continues to allow feed mills in the east to draw on local supplies, resulting in reduced traffic. Agricultural exports and ethanol shipments continued to show quarter-over-quarter strength.
Food and Consumer — Volume was favorable quarter over quarter due to strength in the movement of transportation equipment, such as new freight cars, alcoholic beverages and canned goods. Aggressive yield management resulted in significant revenue per car increases.
Forest Products — A quarter-over-quarter drop in newsprint demand, from conversion to electronic media and the use of lighter papers, more than offset the favorable impact from the continued strong housing market.
Metals — Overall demand was unfavorable quarter over quarter due to weakness in scrap and sheet metal resulting from high inventories in both markets. Volume was favorable quarter over quarter in semi-finished products and structural steel. Price increases coupled with asset prioritization focus resulted in revenue-per-car increases of 16%.
Emerging Markets — Volume was favorable quarter over quarter due to strong demand for shipments in lime, waste and aggregates lines of business. Military shipments were down quarter over quarter due to fewer military equipment deployments.
Chemicals — Unfavorable quarter-over-quarter volume was driven by high raw materials inventories and energy prices. Reduced automotive production has unfavorably impacted raw material shipments for tires, specialty plastic and automotive glass.
Phosphate and Fertilizer — Volume fell as a result of lower rail shipments of export and domestic phosphate and potash. Reduced fertilizer application lowered domestic phosphate demand by nearly 10%. International phosphate producer inventories were at a 10-year high at the end of March, which led to lower export phosphate shipments in April and early May.

Coal, Coke and Iron Ore
     Record revenue and revenue-per-car levels were achieved for the quarter. Strong demand continues across coal sub-markets, with a mild softening noted only in steel related traffic. Utility inventories remain below target levels intensifying the demand for coal shipments. The Company reached a settlement agreement in a rate case that resulted in an additional $17 million of revenue in the second quarter of 2005.
Automotive
     Volume was down 8% as vehicle production by traditional domestic manufacturers was unfavorable by 10% quarter over quarter. Overall, North American light vehicle production was unfavorable by 1% quarter over quarter. Field inventory levels were down 14 days quarter over quarter to 58 days, which remains at or slightly above target levels. Volume declines from GM permanently closing three plants served by CSX were partially offset by rail shipments beginning at the CSX-served Montgomery, AL, Hyundai plant.
Rail Operating Expense
Labor and Fringeincreased $41 million or 6% for the quarter ended July 1, 2005 compared to the quarter ended June 25, 2004. Higher incentive compensation costs are the primary driver of the higher expense as well as the effects of inflation.
Materials, Supplies and Otherincreased $12 million or 3% for the quarter ended July 1, 2005 compared to the quarter ended June 25, 2004 primarily due to inflation and increased legal fees which were mostly offset by a supplier cost reimbursement.
Depreciationincreased $45 million or 30% for the quarter ended July 1, 2005 compared to the quarter ended June 25, 2004, mainly attributable to the Conrail spin-off transaction completed in the third quarter of 2004, as assets previously leased from Conrail are now owned directly by CSXT, as well as higher expenses resulting from an increase in the asset base.
Fuelincreased $25 million or 17% for the quarter ended July 1, 2005 compared to the quarter ended June 25, 2004, due to higher fuel prices, net of hedging benefits. Also, recoveries in the second quarter of 2004 associated with foreign line fuel billing settlements were not repeated. Lower volume and efficiency gains partially offset this change.
Conrail Rents, Fees and Servicesdecreased $63 million for the quarter versus the prior year comparable quarter due to the Conrail transaction completed in the third quarter of 2004. This transaction decreased rents paid to Conrail, as assets previously leased from Conrail are now owned directly by CSXT.
Restructuring Chargeof $14 million represents the 2004 charge for separation expenses related to the management restructuring announced in November 2003 at the Company’s Surface Transportation units.

Intermodal
Intermodal Operating Revenue
Domestic- The Network Simplification Initiative (“NSI”), which led to overall service improvements across the network and reduced unprofitable traffic, resulted in lower volume. The quarter ended July 1, 2005 is the last quarter of period over period variance due to NSI as the Company has cycled through the impacts of this initiative. Continued re-pricing and improved cargo selection coupled with tight capacity across all modes of transportation partially offset volume reduction.
International- Second quarter volumes remained essentially flat due to sustained focus on eliminating less profitable traffic. Price increases were offset by unfavorable traffic mix changes.
Other- Higher fuel surcharge rates and increased customer coverage, terminal storage charge increases and a reduction in volume refund incentives all drove favorable quarter over quarter revenue comparisons.
Intermodal Operating Expense
     Intermodal operating expense decreased $19 million, or 6%, compared to the prior year quarter as a result of reduced volume primarily attributable to NSI.
Intermodal Operating Income
     Intermodal operating income increased $24 million, or 77%, compared to the prior year quarter due to higher fuel surcharge rates and increased customer coverage, reduction of volume incentive refund programs, increases in terminal storage charges relating to equipment, and expense savings from NSI.

Rail

Rail Operating Revenue

     Rail revenue increased $174 million or 11% for the quarter ended April 1, 2005 compared to the quarter ended March 26, 2004.

Merchandise

     Merchandise revenue was up 8% on relatively flat volume during the first quarter of 2005. All markets showed year-over-year improvement in revenue per car due to continued price increases and the Company’s fuel surcharge program.

•  
Phosphates and Fertilizers– Strength in revenue yield offset volume weakness and mix changes, as overall revenue grew 1%. Domestic phosphate demand was soft, causing interior phosphate revenue to fall by 24% while shorter haul export phosphate revenue grew 15%.
•  Metals– Despite a 1% decline in volume, metals revenue grew 16% due to market pricing and favorable mix changes. Strong demand continues to sustain high levels of steel production, but the sources of the strength are beginning to shift from automotive to construction. Imports have also been strong.
•  Forest Products– Paper markets produced significantly higher revenue despite lower volume in several lines of business. Volume strength in lumber and panel markets was offset by declines in several paper markets. U.S. newsprint demand dropped over 4% during the first two months of the year, while imports continue to affect domestic paper production.
•  Food and Consumer– Volume was favorable by 7%, led by gains in building products and alcoholic beverages. Even stronger revenue gains of 19% were driven by continued yield management success and gains in transportation equipment.
•  Agricultural Products– Volume was flat due to weakness in domestic beans and processed products markets. However, revenue was favorable on strength in export and ethanol shipments, as well as revenue per car increases in feed ingredients, sweeteners and flour.
•  Chemicals– Revenue grew 7% on relatively flat volume. Gains were strongest in textile chemicals, bleach/paper chemicals, and petroleum products. The plastics market experienced volatility during the quarter as buyers reduced existing inventories; but revenue still grew 4%. Sand shipments were down due to car shortages and losses of marginal traffic.
•  Emerging Markets– Volume was favorable overall as strength in most lines of business offset weakness in military shipments. Volume strength was primarily driven by growth in northern aggregates of 32% and salt of 23%. An unfavorable military mix impact, drove an overall decline in revenue per car.

Automotive

     Revenue increased 3% on flat volume as a result of yield improvements. North American light vehicle production decreased 179,285 units, or roughly 4%, year over year. Inventory levels remain high, at 69 days for most manufacturers and 79 days for the Big 3. Manufacturers are using production downtime and incentives to address excess inventory.

Coal, Coke and Iron Ore

     Overall coal, coke and iron ore revenues were favorable 20% year over year. Volume was favorable 9% or 38,000 carloads. Growth was driven by volume gains in export, industrial, coke, and northern utility markets. Revenue per car growth was the result of market price increases and the Company’s fuel surcharge program offsetting slightly unfavorable mix. All lines of business reflect favorable year over year revenue-per-car gains.

Rail Operating Expense

Labor and Fringeexpenses increased $16 million in the first quarter of 2005 versus the prior year quarter. The effects of inflation continue to drive labor and fringe expense increases, along with increases in incentive compensation. These costs were partially offset by benefits realized from reduced staffing levels.

Materials, Supplies and Otherexpenses increased $45 million during the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the prior year quarter. The increase is associated with volume and inflation related expenses as well as an increase in expenses related to the resolution of certain legal matters and higher reserve requirements for non-trade uncollectible accounts.

Depreciationincreased $43 million for the first quarter of 2005 due to an increased depreciation base, mainly attributable to the Conrail transaction, as assets previously leased from Conrail are now owned directly by CSX.

Fuelincreased $25 million for the quarter versus the prior year due to higher fuel prices, net of hedging benefits.

Conrail Rents, Fees and Servicesdecreased $67 million for the quarter primarily due to the Conrail transaction completed in the third quarter of 2004. This transaction decreased rents paid to Conrail, as assets previously leased from Conrail are now owned directly by CSX.

Restructuring Chargeof $50 million represents the 2004 charge for separation expenses related to the management restructuring announced in November 2003 at Surface Transportation.

Rail Operating Income

     Operating income was $299 million for the quarter ended April 1, 2005 compared to $132 million for the quarter ended March 26, 2004.

Intermodal Operating Revenue

Domestic

     The Network Simplification Initiative (NSI), severe west coast weather and service issues led to a 17% decrease in volume. Market rate increases partially offset the volume reduction and significantly improved revenue per unit.

International

     Revenue gains were largely driven by increases in traffic on the core network. Decreases in off-core and transcontinental traffic were impacted by marketing changes and the west coast embargo which was caused by severe weather.

Other

     Overall revenue strength was driven by favorable changes in incentive refund programs, fuel surcharge and an increase in per-diem and supplemental charges related to asset utilization.

Intermodal Operating Expense

     Intermodal operating expense decreased $19 million, or 6%, compared to the prior year quarter, resulting primarily from reduction in volume associated with NSI and western linehaul routes unfavorably impacted by the significant weather on the west coast.

Intermodal Operating Income

     Intermodal operating income increased $33 million, or 174%, compared to the prior year quarter due to favorable changes in incentive refund programs, fuel surcharge and an increase in per-diem and supplemental charges related to asset utilization. Continued yield improvements in the domestic business segment are also driving the increase.

On March 30, 2004,In May 2005, Standard and Poor’s loweredraised the Company’s short-term rating from A-2A-3 to A-3A-2 and revised the outlook from stablenegative to negative. Onstable. In July 6, 2004, Moody’s Investor Service reaffirmed the Company’s short and long-term unsecured debt ratings, but adjusted the outlook from stable to negative. The Company’s short-term commercial paper program is rated A-3A-2 and P-2 by Standard and Poor’s and Moody’s Investor Service, respectively. This increases the Company’s borrowing costs in the commercial paper market and reduces the Company’s access to these funds because of the limited demand for A-3 commercial paper. If CSX’s long-term unsecured bond ratings were reduced to BBB- and Baa3, the Company’s undrawn borrowing costs under the $1.2 billion and $400 million revolving credit facilities would not materially increase.

If CSX’s short-term commercial paper ratings were reduced to A-3 and P-3, it would increase the Company’s borrowing costs in the commercial paper market and reduce the Company’s access to this source of funds because of the more limited demand for lower rated commercial paper.

     The Company had no commercial paper outstanding at AprilJuly 1, 2005 or December 31, 2004.

     CSX’s working capital at AprilJuly 1, 2005 was $517a deficit of $305 million, compared to a deficit of $330 million at December 31, 2004. This change is2004, primarily driven by the net cash proceeds from the dispositiona reduction of the Company’s International Terminals business and a decrease in debt that will become due within 12 months. The Company believes that in future periods working capital will return to a deficit.one year offset by lower cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. A working capital deficit is not unusual for the Company and other companies in the industry and does not indicate a lack of liquidity. The Company continues to maintain adequate current assets to satisfy current liabilities and maturing obligations when they come due and has sufficient financial capacity to manage its day-to-day cash requirements and any obligations arising from legal, tax and other regulatory rulings.

     See Note 4. Debt and Credit Agreements, for discussion of the Company’s revolving credit facilities and repurchase of debt.
Shelf Registration Statements

     CSX currently has $900 million of capacity under an effective shelf registration that may be used, subject to market conditions and board authorization, to issue debt or equity securities at the Company’s discretion. The Company presently intends to use the proceeds from the sale of any securities issued under its shelf registration statement to finance cash requirements, including refinancing existing debt as it matures. While the Company seeks to give itself flexibility with respect to meeting such needs, there can be no assurance that market conditions would permit the Company to sell such securities on acceptable terms at any given time, or at all.

Critical Accounting Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires that management make estimates in reporting the amounts of certain assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Significant estimates using management judgment are made for the following areas:

  Casualty, Environmental and Legal Reserves
 
  Pension and Postretirement Medical Plan Accounting
 
  Depreciation Policies for Assets Under the Group-Life Method
 
  Income Taxes

     These estimates and assumptions are discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors on a regular basis.

ITEM 3: QUANTATIVEQUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     CSX addresses market risk exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and the risk of volatility in its fuel costs through the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

     The Company addresses its exposure to interest rate market risk through a controlled program of risk management that includes the use of interest rate swap agreements. As of April 1, 2005, the Company had variousThe table below illustrates our interest rate swap agreements on $950 millionposition as of its fixed rate outstanding notes payable.

     During 2003, the Company began a program to hedge its exposure to fuel price volatility through swap transactions. As of AprilJuly 1, 2005, CSX had hedged approximately 47%43% and 9% of fuel purchases for 2005 and 2006, respectively. At AprilJuly 1, 2005, a 1% change in fuel prices would result in an increase or decrease in the asset related to the swaps of approximately $3$2 million. The Company’s rail unit average annual fuel consumption is approximately 607606 million gallons. A one-cent change in the price per gallon of fuel would affect fuel expense by approximately $3$4 million annually.

     The Company is exposed to loss in the event of non-performance by any counter-party to the interest rate swap or fuel hedging agreements. The Company does not anticipate non-performance by such counter-parties, and no material loss would be expected from non-performance.

ITEM 5: OTHER INFORMATION
     CSX Corporation’s Board of Directors (“Board”) has adopted, upon recommendation from the Governance Committee of the Board, Stock Ownership Guidelines to further ensure alignment of the interests of non-employee directors (“Director”) with the interests of stockholders. This action reflects the growing trend among large, publicly-held companies to require directors to hold prescribed amounts of company stock. In addition, the Board requires that each Director receive 50 percent of his or her respective annual retainer in the form of Company stock.
     These guidelines require that all Directors own shares of common stock in CSX Corporation. Within five years of election to the Board of Directors, a Director must acquire and hold an amount of CSX common stock equal in value to five times the amount of such Director’s annual retainer. The minimum number of CSX shares to be held by Directors will be calculated on June 1 of each calendar year based on the average of the high and low price of CSX common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on that date. In the event that June 1 is not a day on which the NYSE is open for trading, this calculation will occur on the first trading day immediately following June 1. Any subsequent change in the value of the shares will not affect the amount of stock Directors must hold during that year. In the event the annual retainer increases, the Directors will have five years from the time of the increase to acquire any additional shares needed to meet these guidelines.
