1 | Basis of presentation | |
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared using accounting policies that are consistent with the policies used in preparing Canadian Pacific Railway Limiteds (CPR, the Company or Canadian Pacific Railway) 2004 annual consolidated financial statements. They do not include all disclosures required under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements. | ||
2 | Change in accounting estimate | |
During the first half of 2005, the Company recorded a $23.4-million adjustment to increase current year revenues related to 2004. This adjustment reflected a change in estimate primarily as a result of a contract settlement with a customer. | ||
3 | Special charge for (reduction to) environmental remediation | |
In the fourth quarter of 2004, CPR recorded a special charge of $90.9 million for investigation, characterization, remediation and other applicable actions related to environmental contamination at a CPR-owned property in the U.S., which includes areas previously leased to third parties. CPR is participating in the State of Minnesotas voluntary investigation and clean-up program at the east side of the property. The property is the subject of ongoing fieldwork being undertaken in conjunction with the appropriate state authorities to determine the extent and magnitude of the contamination and the appropriate remediation plan. CPR filed with the State of Minnesota in 2005 a response action plan for the east side of the property. | ||
In the third quarter of 2005, a settlement was reached relating to a lawsuit with a potentially responsible party in relation to portions of past environmental contamination at the above-mentioned CPR-owned property. As a result, the lawsuit against the other party has been dismissed. Also, CPR was able to reduce accrued liabilities related to this property, and recognized a total reduction of $33.9 million to the special charge for environmental remediation recorded in 2004. | ||
4 | Special charge for (reduction to) labour restructuring | |
In the fourth quarter of 2005, CPR recorded a special charge of $44.2 million for a labour restructuring initiative. The job reductions, mostly in management and administrative positions, will be substantially completed by the end of 2006. | ||
In the fourth quarter of 2004, upon receiving partial regulatory approval for a new arrangement with another rail carrier, CPR recorded a reduction of $19.0 million (US$16.0 million) related to a $21.8-million accrual originally recorded in 2003 for labour restructuring on the Delaware & Hudson Railway, a wholly owned subsidiary. |

7 | Earnings per share | |
At December 31, 2005, the number of shares outstanding was 158.2 million (December 31, 2004 158.8 million). | ||
Basic earnings per share have been calculated using net income for the period divided by the weighted average number of CPR shares outstanding during the period. | ||
Diluted earnings per share have been calculated using the treasury stock method, which gives effect to the dilutive value of outstanding options. | ||
The number of shares used in earnings per share calculations is reconciled as follows: |

For the quarter ended December 31, 2005, 4,000 options (quarter ended December 31, 2004 - 6,833 options) were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were not dilutive. For the year ended December 31, 2005, 1,000 options (year ended December 31, 2004 634,639 options) were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were not dilutive. | ||
8 | Restructuring and environmental remediation | |
At December 31, 2005, the provision for restructuring and environmental remediation was $398.8 million (December 31, 2004 $448.7 million). The restructuring provision primarily includes labour liabilities for restructuring plans. Payments are expected to continue in diminishing amounts until 2025. The environmental remediation liability includes the cost of a multi-year soil remediation program for various sites. |

New accruals and adjustments to previous accruals were $43.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 compared with $67.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. | ||
In the fourth quarter of 2005, CPR established new restructuring initiatives to be substantially completed by the end of 2006, to reduce labour costs, primarily in management and administrative areas. These initiatives required the recording of a special charge of $44.2 million for labour restructuring, which included $43.1 million for labour restructuring liabilities and $1.1 million for accelerated recognition of stock-based compensation, which was included elsewhere in deferred liabilities and in contributed surplus. This charge was partially offset by a net reduction of $7.7 million (included in Compensation and Benefits and Purchased Services and Other) largely due to experience gains on previously accrued amounts and minor new initiatives. Adjustments of $7.7 million to the environmental remediation program were largely due to monitoring and technical support costs related to multi-year sites. |

8 | Restructuring and environmental remediation (continued) | |
In the fourth quarter of 2004, CPR reversed a $19.0-million labour liability accrued in 2003 and recorded additional net reductions of $14.7 million for previously accrued labour and non-labour initiatives due mainly to experience gains on settlements. In addition, the Company recorded a $90.9-million charge, which included an increase in the environmental remediation program liability of $85.7 million, an increase in non-labour liabilities of $0.7 million (included in the $14.7 million above) and a reduction in Other Assets and Deferred Charges of $4.5 million. The environmental remediation program liability was further increased by $15.0 million for various other environmental sites included in the multi-year soil remediation program. |

8 | Restructuring and environmental remediation (continued) | |
New accruals and adjustments to previous accruals were $11.1 million in 2005 compared with $65.5 million in 2004. | ||
In 2005, CPR established new restructuring initiatives to be substantially completed by the end of 2006, to reduce labour costs, primarily in management and administrative areas. These initiatives required the recording of a special charge of $44.2 million for labour restructuring, which included $43.1 million for labour restructuring liabilities and $1.1 million for accelerated recognition of stock-based compensation, which was included elsewhere in deferred liabilities and in contributed surplus. This charge was partially offset by a net reduction of $9.6 million (included in Compensation and Benefits and Purchased Services and Other) largely due to experience gains on previously accrued amounts and minor new initiatives. The adjustment to the environmental remediation program was largely due to a settlement reached with another responsible party during the third quarter of 2005, resulting in an adjustment of $33.9 million to the special charge recorded in 2004 (see Note 3), including a $30.3-million reduction in the environmental liability. The $30.3-million reduction was partially offset by $7.9 million of adjustments due largely to monitoring and technical support costs related to multi-year sites. | ||
In 2004, CPR reversed a $19.0-million labour liability accrued in 2003 and recorded additional net reductions of $16.5 million for previously accrued labour and non-labour initiatives due mainly to experience gains on settlements. In addition, the Company recorded a $90.9-million charge, which included an increase in the environmental remediation program liability of $85.7 million, an increase in non-labour liabilities of $0.7 million (included in the $16.5 million above) and a reduction in Other Assets and Deferred Charges of $4.5 million. The environmental remediation program liability was further increased by $15.3 million for various other environmental sites included in the multi-year soil remediation program. | ||

In May 2005, the Company completed the necessary filings for a normal course issuer bid to purchase, for cancellation, up to 2.5 million of its outstanding Common Shares, representing 1.6% of the approximately 159.0 million Common Shares outstanding just prior to the filing date. Share purchases may be made during the 12-month period beginning June 6, 2005, and ending June 5, 2006. The purchases are made at the market price on the day of purchase, with consideration allocated to share capital up to the average carrying amount of the shares, and any excess allocated to contributed surplus. When shares are repurchased, it takes three days before the transaction is settled and the shares are cancelled. The cost of shares purchased in a given month and settled in the following month is accrued in the month of purchase. During the fourth quarter, no shares were repurchased (year-to-date, 1,761,000 shares have been repurchased at an average price of $45.77). |

10 | Stock-based compensation | |
In 2005, under CPRs stock option plans, the Company issued 1,556,400 options to purchase Common Shares at the weighted average price of $42.09 per share, based on the closing price on the day prior to the grant date. In tandem with these options, 512,200 stock appreciation rights were issued at the weighted average exercise price of $42.11. | ||
Pursuant to the employee plan, options may be exercised upon vesting, which is between 24 months and 36 months after the grant date, and will expire after 10 years. Some options vest after 48 months, unless certain performance targets are achieved, in which case vesting is accelerated. These options expire five years after the grant date. | ||
The following is a summary of the Companys fixed stock option plans as of December 31 (including options granted under the Directors Stock Option Plan, which was suspended in 2003): |

Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period for stock options issued since January 1, 2003, based on their estimated fair values on the date of grants, as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Had CPR used the fair value method for options granted between January 1, 2002, and December 31, 2002, CPRs pro forma basis net income and earnings per share would have been as follows: |

11 | Pensions and other benefits | |
The total benefit expense for the Companys defined benefit pension plans, defined contribution pension plans and post-retirement benefits for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, was $20.2 million (quarter ended December 31, 2004 $17.0 million) and for the year ended December 31, 2005, was $82.6 million (year ended December 31, 2004 $70.4 million). | ||
12 | Significant customers | |
During the year ended December 31, 2005, one customer comprised 14.5% of total revenue (year ended December 31, 2004 11.7%). At December 31, 2005, one customer represented 8.0% of total accounts receivable (December 31, 2004 12.4%). |
19
13 | Commitments and contingencies | |
In the normal course of its operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions, including claims relating to injuries and damages to property. The Company maintains provisions it considers to be adequate for such actions. While the final outcome with respect to actions outstanding or pending at December 31, 2005, cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that their resolution will not have a materially adverse effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations. | ||
Capital commitments | ||
At December 31, 2005, CPR had multi-year capital commitments of $626.7 million, mainly for locomotive overhaul agreements, in the form of signed contracts. Payments for these commitments are due in 2006 through 2016. | ||
Operating lease commitments | ||
At December 31, 2005, minimum payments under operating leases were estimated at $602.2 million in aggregate, with annual payments in each of the next five years of: 2006 $150.7 million; 2007 $107.0 million; 2008 $77.8 million; 2009 $51.0 million; 2010 $37.6 million. | ||
Guarantees | ||
The Company had residual value guarantees on operating lease commitments of $320.4 million at December 31, 2005. The maximum amount that could be payable under these and all of the Companys other guarantees cannot be reasonably estimated due to the nature of certain of the guarantees. All or a portion of amounts paid under certain guarantees could be recoverable from other parties or through insurance. The Company has accrued for all guarantees that it expects to pay. At December 31, 2005, these accruals, which do not include any amounts for residual value guarantees, amounted to $13.3 million. | ||
