CSX Stock Dips After Mixed Q4 Results: Details

CSX Corp. CSX reported its fourth-quarter financial results after Thursday’s closing bell. Here’s a look at the key figures from the quarter. 

The Details: CSX reported quarterly earnings of 42 cents per share, inline with the analyst consensus estimate. Quarterly revenue came in at $3.54 billion, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $3.57 billion and is a decrease from revenue of $3.68 billion from last year’s fourth quarter.

CSX attributed the decrease in revenues to declines in fuel surcharge and coal revenue which offset the effects of higher pricing and volume in merchandise and volume growth in intermodal. The company reported adjusted operating margin was 34.3% for the quarter.
