NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019

(unaudited)

1 Basis of presentation

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Canadian Pacific Railway Limited (“CP”, or “the Company”), expressed in Canadian dollars, reflect management’s estimates and assumptions that are necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). They do not include all disclosures required under GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the 2018 annual consolidated financial statements and notes included in CP's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accounting policies used are consistent with the accounting policies used in preparing the 2018 annual consolidated financial statements, except for the newly adopted accounting policy discussed in Note 2.

CP's operations can be affected by seasonal fluctuations such as changes in customer demand and weather-related issues. This seasonality could impact quarter-over-quarter comparisons.

In management’s opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly such information. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year.

2 Accounting changes

Implemented in 2019

Leases

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the new Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), and all related amendments under FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842, Leases. Using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition approach, the Company recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Accordingly, comparative financial information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.

In January 2019, the Company implemented a lease management system to assist in delivering the required accounting changes. To facilitate the transition, the Company made policy choices to utilize available practical expedients provided by the new standard, including the:


•	Acceptance of the package of practical expedients, permitting the Company not to reassess lease existence, classification, and capitalization of initial direct costs previously determined for all leases under Topic 840, Leases;


•	Acceptance of the previous accounting treatment for land easements where Topic 840 was not applied; and


•	Use of hindsight at transition to determine lease term length.

Operating leases with fixed terms and in-substance fixed terms were transitioned by recognizing both an operating lease liability and right-of-use ("ROU") asset. Operating lease liabilities and ROU assets were calculated at the present value of remaining lease payments using the Company’s incremental borrowing interest rate as at January 1, 2019. ROU assets were further modified to include previously accrued balances for prepayments and initial direct costs, but reduced for accrued lease incentives. The Company did not recognize operating lease liabilities or ROU assets for leases requiring variable payment not dependent on an index or rate, or short term leases with a term of 12 months or less.

On adoption, the standard had a material impact on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, but did not have a significant impact on its consolidated statement of income. The most significant impact was the recognition of operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities, while the Company's accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged.

The impact of the adoption of ASC 842 as at January 1, 2019 was as follows:



(in millions of Canadian dollars)	As reported December 31, 2018		New lease standard cumulative-effect			As restated January 1, 2019
Assets
Properties	$	18,418	$	(12	)	$	18,406
Other assets	71		399			470
Liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	$	1,449	$	58		$	1,507

Deferred income taxes	3,518		(3		)	3,515
Shareholders' equity
Retained earnings	$	6,635	$	(5	)	$	6,630

There was no significant impact to lessor accounting upon the adoption of ASC 842.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, legislation was enacted to decrease the Alberta provincial corporate income tax rate. As a result of this change, the Company recorded a deferred tax recovery of $88 million in the second quarter of 2019 related to the revaluation of its deferred income tax balances as at January 1, 2019.

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, legislation was enacted to decrease the Iowa and Missouri state corporate income tax rates. As a result of these changes, the Company recorded a deferred tax recovery of $21 million in the second quarter of 2018 related to the revaluation of deferred income tax balances as at January 1, 2018.

The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were 14.63% and 18.50%, respectively, compared to 21.88% and 23.73%, respectively for the same periods in 2018.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the effective tax rate excluding the discrete items of the foreign exchange ("FX") gain of $37 million on debt and lease liabilities and the $88 million deferred tax recovery on the Alberta provincial corporate income tax rate change, was 25.75%.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the effective tax rate excluding the discrete items of the FX loss of $44 million on debt and the $21 million deferred tax recovery on the Iowa and Missouri state corporate income tax rate changes, was 24.75%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the effective tax rate excluding the discrete items of the FX gain of $82 million on debt and lease liabilities and the $88 million deferred tax recovery on the Alberta provincial corporate income tax rate change, was 25.75%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the effective tax rate excluding the discrete items of the FX loss of $93 million on debt and the $21 million deferred tax recovery on the Iowa and Missouri state corporate income tax rate changes, was 24.75%.

7 Earnings per share

At June 30, 2019, the number of CP Common Shares outstanding was 139.1 million (June 30, 2018 - 142.5 million).

Basic earnings per share have been calculated using net income for the period divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The number of shares used in earnings per share calculations is reconciled as follows:



	For the three months ended June 30		For the six months ended June 30
(in millions)	2019	2018	2019	2018
Weighted-average basic shares outstanding	139.7	142.8	139.9	143.6
Dilutive effect of stock options	0.5	0.4	0.5	0.4
Weighted-average diluted shares outstanding	140.2	143.2	140.4	144.0

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, there were no options excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share (three months ended June 30, 2018 - 0.1 million). For the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were 0.1 million options excluded

from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were not dilutive (six months ended June 30, 2018 - 0.2 million).

8 Debt

Retirement of long-term debt

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repaid U.S. $350 million 7.250% 10-year notes at maturity for a total of U.S. $350 million ($471 million).

Issuance of long-term debt

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company issued $400 million 3.150% 10-year notes due March 13, 2029 for net proceeds of $397 million. These notes pay interest semi-annually and are unsecured but carry a negative pledge.

Commercial paper program

The Company has a commercial paper program which enables it to issue commercial paper up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of U.S. $1.0 billion in the form of unsecured promissory notes. The commercial paper is backed by the U.S. $1.0 billion revolving credit facility. As at June 30, 2019, the Company had total commercial paper borrowings of U.S. $185 million ($242 million), presented in "Long-term debt maturing within one year" on the Company's Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets (December 31, 2018 - $nil). The weighted-average interest rate on these borrowings was 2.64%.

The Company presents issuances and repayments of commercial paper, all of which have a maturity of less than 90 days, in the Company's Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows on a net basis.

9 Leases

The Company has leases for rolling stock, buildings, vehicles, railway equipment, and roadway machines. CP has entered into rolling stock leases that are fully variable or contain both fixed and variable components. Variable components are dependent on the hours and miles that the underlying equipment has been used. Fixed term, short-term, and variable operating lease costs are recorded in Equipment rents and Purchased services and other on the Company's Interim Consolidated Income Statements. Components of finance lease costs are recorded in Depreciation and amortization and Net interest expense on the Company's Interim Consolidated Income Statements.

The Company determines lease existence and classification at the lease inception date. Leases are identified when an agreement conveys the right to control identified property for a period of time in exchange for consideration. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating and finance lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease payments include fixed and variable payments that are based on an index or a rate. If the Company's leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit interest rate, the Company uses internal incremental secured borrowing rates for comparable tenor in the same currency at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating and finance lease ROU assets also include lease prepayments and initial direct costs, but are reduced by lease incentives. The lease term may include periods associated with options to extend or exclude periods associated with options to terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise these options. The Company’s leases have remaining terms from one to 12 years, some of which include options to extend for up to an additional 10 years and some of which include options to terminate within one year.

The Company has short-term operating leases with terms of 12 months or less, some of which include options to purchase that the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise. The Company has elected to apply the recognition exemption and, as such, accounts for leases with a term of 12 months or less off-balance sheet. Therefore, lease payments on these short-term operating leases are not included in operating lease ROU assets and liabilities, but are recognized as an expense in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Further, the Company has elected to combine lease and non-lease components for all leases, except for leases of roadway machines.

Residual value guarantees are provided on certain rolling stock and vehicle operating leases. Cumulatively, these guarantees are limited to $2 million and are not included in lease liabilities as it is not currently probable that any amounts will be owed under these residual value guarantees.

The components of lease expense are as follows:

10 Shareholders' equity

On October 19, 2018, the Company announced a new normal course issuer bid ("NCIB"), commencing October 24, 2018, to purchase up to 5.68 million of its Common Shares in the open market for cancellation before October 23, 2019. As at June 30, 2019, the Company had purchased 3.85 million Common Shares for $1,049 million under this NCIB program.

On May 10, 2017, the Company announced a new NCIB, commencing May 15, 2017, to purchase up to 4.38 million Common Shares for cancellation before May 14, 2018. The Company completed this NCIB on May 10, 2018.

All purchases were made in accordance with the NCIB at prevalent market prices plus brokerage fees, or such other prices that were permitted by the Toronto Stock Exchange, with consideration allocated to share capital up to the average carrying amount of the shares and any excess allocated to retained earnings.

11 Financial instruments

A. Fair values of financial instruments

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

When possible, the estimated fair value is based on quoted market prices and, if not available, it is based on estimates from third party brokers. For non-exchange-traded derivatives classified in Level 2, the Company uses standard valuation techniques to calculate fair value. Primary inputs to these techniques include observable market prices (interest, FX and commodity) and volatility, depending on the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying risk. The Company uses inputs and data used by willing market participants when valuing derivatives and considers its own credit default swap spread as well as those of its counterparties in its determination of fair value. All derivatives and long-term debt are classified as Level 2.

The carrying values of financial instruments equal or approximate their fair values with the exception of long-term debt:

The estimated fair value of current and long-term borrowings has been determined based on market information where available, or by discounting future payments of principal and interest at estimated interest rates expected to be available to the Company at period end.

B. Financial risk management

Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments may be used to selectively reduce volatility associated with fluctuations in interest rates, FX rates, the price of fuel and stock-based compensation expense. Where derivatives are designated as hedging instruments, the relationship between the hedging instruments and their associated hedged items is documented, as well as the risk management objective and strategy for the use of the hedging instruments. This documentation includes linking the derivatives that are designated as fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets or liabilities on the Company's Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets, commitments or forecasted transactions. At the time a derivative contract is entered into and at least quarterly thereafter, an assessment is made as to whether the derivative item is effective in offsetting the changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged items. The derivative qualifies for hedge accounting treatment if it is effective in substantially mitigating the risk it was designed to address.

It is not the Company’s intent to use financial derivatives or commodity instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

FX management

The Company conducts business transactions and owns assets in both Canada and the United States ("U.S."). As a result, the Company is exposed to fluctuations in the value of financial commitments, assets, liabilities, income or cash flows due to changes in FX rates. The Company may enter into FX risk management transactions primarily to manage fluctuations in the exchange rate between Canadian and U.S. currencies. FX exposure is primarily mitigated through natural offsets created by revenues, expenditures and balance sheet positions incurred in the same currency. Where appropriate, the Company may negotiate with customers and suppliers to reduce the net exposure.

Net investment hedge

The FX gains and losses on long-term debt are mainly unrealized and can only be realized when U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debt matures or is settled. The Company also has long-term FX exposure on its investment in U.S. affiliates. The majority of the Company’s U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debt has been designated as a hedge of the net investment in foreign subsidiaries. This designation has the effect of mitigating volatility on Net income by offsetting long-term FX gains and losses on U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debt and gains and losses on its net investment. The effect of the net investment hedge recognized in “Other comprehensive income” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was an unrealized FX gain of $120 million and $240 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2018 - unrealized FX loss of $122 million and $273 million, respectively).

Interest rate management

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk, which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will vary as a result of changes in market interest rates. In order to manage funding needs or capital structure goals, the Company enters into debt or capital lease agreements that are subject to either fixed market interest rates set at the time of issue or floating rates determined by ongoing market conditions. Debt subject to variable interest rates exposes the Company to variability in interest expense, while debt subject to fixed interest rates exposes the Company to variability in the fair value of debt.

To manage interest rate exposure, the Company accesses diverse sources of financing and manages borrowings in line with a targeted range of capital structure, debt ratings, liquidity needs, maturity schedule, and currency and interest rate profiles. In anticipation of future debt issuances, the Company may enter into forward rate agreements, that are designated as cash flow hedges, to substantially lock in all or a portion of the effective future interest expense. The Company may also enter into swap agreements, designated as fair value hedges, to manage the mix of fixed and floating rate debt.

Forward starting swaps

During the second quarter of 2018, the Company settled a notional U.S. $500 million of forward starting swaps related to the U.S. $500 million 4.000% 10-year Notes issued in the same period. The fair value of these derivative instruments at the time of settlement was a loss of U.S. $19 million ($24 million). The changes in fair value from forward starting swaps for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $nil (three and six months ended June 30, 2018 - gain of $12 million and $31 million, respectively). This was recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss”, net of tax, and is being reclassified to "Net interest expense" on the Interim Consolidated Statements of Income until the underlying hedged notes are repaid.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, a net loss of $3 million and $5 million, respectively, related to settled forward starting swap hedges have been amortized to “Net interest expense” (three and six months ended June 30, 2018 - net loss of $2 million and $5 million, respectively). The Company expects that during the next twelve months, an additional $9 million of net losses will be amortized to “Net interest expense”.

12 Stock-based compensation

At June 30, 2019, the Company had several stock-based compensation plans, including stock option plans, various cash settled liability plans and an employee share purchase plan. These plans resulted in an expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 of $39 million and $73 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2018 - $18 million and $32 million, respectively).

Stock option plan

In the six months ended June 30, 2019, under CP’s stock option plans, the Company issued 222,894 options at the weighted-average price of $272.33 per share, based on the closing price on the grant date. Pursuant to the employee plan, these options may be exercised upon vesting, which is between 12 months and 48 months after the grant date, and will expire after seven years.

Under the fair value method, the fair value of the stock options at the grant date was approximately $14 million. The weighted-average fair value assumptions were approximately:



	For the six months ended June 30, 2019
Grant price	$272.33
Expected option life (years)⁽¹⁾	5.00
Risk-free interest rate⁽²⁾	2.23%
Expected stock price volatility⁽³⁾	25.05%
Expected annual dividends per share⁽⁴⁾	$2.6133
Expected forfeiture rate⁽⁵⁾	6.00%
Weighted-average grant date fair value per option granted during the period	$63.67


⁽¹⁾	Represents the period of time that awards are expected to be outstanding. Historical data on exercise behaviour or, when available, specific expectations regarding future exercise behaviour were used to estimate the expected life of the option.


⁽²⁾	Based on the implied yield available on zero-coupon government issues with an equivalent term commensurate with the expected term of the option.


⁽³⁾	Based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price over a period commensurate with the expected term of the option.


⁽⁴⁾	Determined by the current annual dividend at the time of grant. The Company does not employ different dividend yields throughout the contractual term of the option. On May 6, 2019, the Company announced an increase in its quarterly dividend to $0.8300 per share, representing $3.3200 on an annual basis.


⁽⁵⁾	The Company estimates forfeitures based on past experience. This rate is monitored on a periodic basis.

Performance share unit plan

In the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company issued 132,423 PSUs with a grant date fair value of approximately $36 million. These units attract dividend equivalents in the form of additional units based on the dividends paid on the Company’s Common Shares. PSUs vest and are settled in cash or in CP Common Shares, approximately three years after the grant date, contingent upon CP’s performance ("performance factor"). The fair value of these PSUs is measured periodically until settlement, using either a lattice-based valuation model or a Monte Carlo simulation model.

The performance period for 131,844 PSUs issued in the six months ended June 30, 2019 is January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021, and the performance factors for these PSUs are Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC"), Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") compared to the S&P/TSX 60 Index, and TSR compared to Class I Railways. The performance factors for the remaining 579 PSUs are annual revenue for the fiscal year 2020, diluted EPS for the fiscal year 2020, and share price appreciation.

The performance period for the PSUs issued in 2016 was January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018. The performance factors for these PSUs were Operating Ratio, ROIC, TSR compared to the S&P/TSX 60 index, and TSR compared to Class I railways. The resulting payout was 177% of the outstanding units multiplied by the Company's average share price that was calculated using the last 30 trading days preceding December 31, 2018. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, payouts occurred on the total outstanding awards, including dividends reinvested, totaling $54 million on 117,228 outstanding awards.

Deferred share unit plan

In the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company granted 15,179 DSUs with a grant date fair value of approximately $4 million. DSUs vest over various periods of up to 48 months and are only redeemable for a specified period after employment is terminated. An expense to income for DSUs is recognized over the vesting period for both the initial subscription price and the change in value between reporting periods.

13 Pension and other benefits

In the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company made contributions of $12 million (three months ended June 30, 2018 - $11 million) to its defined benefit pension plans. In the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company made contributions of $23 million (six months ended June 30, 2018 - $12 million, which is net of a $10 million refund of plan surplus) to its defined benefit pension plans.

Net periodic benefit costs for defined benefit pension plans and other benefits recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 included the following components:

14 Contingencies

In the normal course of its operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions, including claims relating to injuries and damage to property. The Company maintains provisions it considers to be adequate for such actions. While the final outcome with respect to actions outstanding or pending at June 30, 2019 cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Legal proceedings related to Lac-Mégantic rail accident

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

In the wake of the derailment, MMAC sought court protection in Canada under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act, R.S.C., 1985, c. C-36 and MMAR filed for bankruptcy in the United States. Plans of arrangement have been approved in both Canada and the U.S. (the “Plans”). These Plans provide for the distribution of a fund of approximately $440 million amongst those claiming derailment damages.

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

(1)

Québec's Minister of Sustainable Development, Environment, Wildlife and Parks (the "Minister") ordered various parties, including CP, to clean up the derailment site (the “Cleanup Order”). CP appealed the Cleanup Order to the Administrative Tribunal of Québec (the “TAQ”). The Minister subsequently served a Notice of Claim seeking $95 million for compensation spent on cleanup. CP filed a contestation of the Notice of Claim with the TAQ (the “TAQ Proceeding”). CP and the Minister agreed to stay the TAQ Proceedings pending the outcome of the Province of Québec's action, described in item #2 below.

(2)

Québec’s Attorney General sued CP in the Québec Superior Court initially claiming $409 million in damages, which claim was amended and reduced to $315 million (the “Province’s Action”). The Province’s Action alleges that CP exercised custody or control over the petroleum crude oil until its delivery to Irving Oil and was negligent in that custody and control. The province alleges that CP is jointly and severally liable with third parties responsible for the derailment and vicariously liable for the acts and omissions of MMAC.

(3)

A class action in the Québec Superior Court on behalf of persons and entities residing in, owning or leasing property in, operating a business in or physically present in Lac-Mégantic at the time of the derailment (the “Class Action”) was certified against CP, MMAC and the train conductor, Mr. Thomas Harding ("Harding"). The Class Action seeks unquantified damages, including for wrongful death, personal injury, and property damage arising from the derailment. All known wrongful death claimants in the Class Action have opted out and, by court order, cannot re-join the Class Action.

(4)

Eight subrogated insurers sued CP in the Québec Superior Court initially claiming approximately $16 million in damages, which claim was amended and reduced to $14 million (the “Promutuel Action”) and two additional subrogated insurers sued CP in the Québec Superior Court claiming approximately $3 million in damages (the “Royal Action”). Both Actions contain essentially the same allegations as the Province’s Action. The lawsuits do not identify the parties to which the insurers are subrogated, and therefore the extent to which these claims overlap with the proof of claims process under the Plans is difficult to determine at this stage. The Royal Action has been stayed pending the determination of the consolidated proceedings described below.

The Province’s Action, the Class Action and the Promutuel Action have been consolidated and will proceed together through the litigation process in the Québec Superior Court. While each Action will remain a separate legal proceeding, there will be a trial to determine liability issues commencing mid-September 2020, and subsequently, if necessary, a trial to determine damages issues.

(5)

Forty-eight plaintiffs (all individual claims joined in one action) sued CP, MMAC, and Harding in the Québec Superior Court claiming approximately $5 million in damages for economic loss and pain and suffering. These plaintiffs assert essentially the same allegations as those contained in the Class Action and the Province’s Action against CP. The plaintiffs assert they have opted-out of the Class Action. All but two of the plaintiffs were plaintiffs in litigation against CP, described in paragraph 7 below, that originated in the U.S. who either withdrew their claims or had their case dismissed in the U.S.

(6)

An adversary proceeding commenced against CP in November 2014 in the Maine Bankruptcy Court by the MMAR U.S. estate representative (“Estate Representative”) accuses CP of failing to abide by certain regulations (the “Adversary Proceeding”). The Estate Representative alleges that CP knew or ought to have known that the shipper had misclassified the petroleum crude oil and therefore should have refused to transport it. The Estate Representative seeks damages for MMAR’s business value (as yet unquantified) allegedly destroyed by the derailment.

(7)

A class action and mass tort action on behalf of Lac-Mégantic residents and wrongful death representatives commenced in Texas in June 2015 and wrongful death and personal injury actions commenced in Illinois and Maine in June 2015 against CP were all removed and subsequently transferred and consolidated in Federal District Court in Maine (the “Maine Actions”). The Maine Actions allege that CP negligently misclassified and mis-packaged the petroleum crude oil being shipped. On CP’s motion, the Maine Actions were dismissed by the Court on several grounds. The plaintiffs are appealing the dismissal decision.

(8)

The trustee (the “WD Trustee”) for the wrongful death trust (the “WD Trust”), as defined and established by the Estate Representative under the Plans, asserts Carmack Amendment claims against CP in North Dakota federal court (the “Carmack Claims”). The WD Trustee seeks to recover approximately $6 million for damaged rail cars and lost crude and recover the settlement amounts the consignor and the consignee paid to the bankruptcy estates, alleged to be $110 million and $60 million, respectively. On CP’s motion, the District Court in North Dakota dismissed the Carmack Claims on timeliness grounds. The WD Trustee appealed this decision to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals ("8CCA"), who reversed that decision and remanded the matter back to the District Court. CP sought reconsideration by the 8CCA, but the 8CCA denied rehearing. CP filed a petition for judicial review of this decision to the Supreme Court on February 13, 2019. The Supreme Court denied CP’s petition for judicial review on June 3, 2019 and the District Court set a trial date for August 2020. CP is considering applying for dismissal of the Carmack Claims on other grounds.

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

Environmental liabilities

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

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

Costs related to existing, but as yet unknown, or future contamination will be accrued in the period in which they become probable and reasonably estimable.

The expense included in “Purchased services and other” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $1 million and $2 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2018 - $1 million and $2 million, respectively). Provisions for environmental remediation costs are recorded in “Other long-term liabilities”, except for the current portion which is recorded in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities”. The total amount provided at June 30, 2019 was $79 million (December 31, 2018 - $82 million). Payments are expected to be made over 10 years through 2029.

Executive Summary

Second Quarter of 2019 Results

•

Financial performance - In the second quarter of 2019, CP reported Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $5.17, an increase of 70% as compared to the same period of 2018. Net income was $724 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of 66% as compared to the same period in 2018. These increases were primarily due to growth in operating income and foreign exchange ("FX") translation gains on debt and lease liabilities in 2019 compared to losses in 2018. Adjusted diluted EPS, which excludes the FX translation gains on debt and lease liabilities and a deferred tax recovery, was $4.30 in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of 36% compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher operating income.

CP reported an Operating ratio of 58.4% in the second quarter of 2019, a 580 basis point improvement as compared to the same period of 2018. This improvement was primarily due to higher freight revenue and efficiencies generated from improved operating performance and asset utilization.

Adjusted diluted EPS is defined and reconciled in Non-GAAP Measures and discussed further in Results of Operations of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


•	Total revenues - Total revenues increased by 13% in the second quarter of 2019 to $1,977 million from $1,750 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily driven by higher volumes, higher freight rates and the favourable impact of the change in FX.

•

Operating performance - CP's average train speed increased by 5% to 22.4 miles per hour due to completion of network infrastructure projects in 2018. Average train weight increased by 3% to 9,295 tons and average train length increased by 3% to 7,523 feet due to improvements in operating plan efficiency and increased volumes of heavier commodities. These metrics are discussed further in Performance Indicators of this Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Recent Developments


•	On July 15, 2019, the Company announced the appointment of Andrea Robertson and Edward R. Hamberger to CP’s Board of Directors, effective July 15, 2019.


•	On May 7, 2019, CP announced the election of all nine director nominees and, upon her re-election as a director, Ms. Isabelle Courville was confirmed as Chair of CP's Board of Directors.


•	On May 6, 2019, CP declared a quarterly dividend of $0.8300 per share on the outstanding Common Shares, an increase from $0.6500 per share. The dividend is payable on July 29, 2019 to holders of record at the close of business on June 28, 2019.

Prior Developments


•	During the first quarter of 2019, the Company experienced severe winter operating conditions and an increase in the frequency and severity of casualty incidents and derailments. As a result, the Company incurred significant costs for weather fighting,

direct casualty costs, and higher operating costs. During this period and the subsequent network recovery the Company also experienced losses and deferrals of potential revenues.

•

During the second quarter of 2018, the Company received multiple strike notices from the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference - Train & Engine ("TCRC"), representing approximately 3,000 conductors and locomotive engineers, and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers ("IBEW"), representing approximately 360 signal maintainers. CP reached a three-year agreement with IBEW, ratified by IBEW membership on June 29, 2018, and a four-year agreement with TCRC, ratified by TCRC membership on July 20, 2018. The wind-down of operations and return to full service levels following the strike notices caused disruption to the network, losses in potential revenue and costs related to labour disruptions.

Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018

•

A GTM is defined as the movement of one ton of train weight over one mile. GTMs are calculated by multiplying total train weight by the distance the train moved. Total train weight comprises the weight of the freight cars, their contents, and any inactive locomotives. An increase in GTMs indicates additional workload. GTMs increased by 7% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to increased volumes of Potash, Canadian grain, Intermodal and Energy, chemicals and plastics. This increase was partially offset by decreased volumes of frac sand, U.S. grain and Canadian coal.


•	Train miles are defined as the sum of the distance moved by all trains operated on the network. Train miles increased by 5% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase reflected the impact of a 7% increase in workload (GTMs), partially offset by improvements in train weights.

•

Average train weight is defined as the average gross weight of CP trains, both loaded and empty. This excludes trains in short-haul service, work trains used to move CP’s track equipment and materials, and the haulage of other railroads’ trains on CP’s network. Average train weight increased by 3% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was due to improvements in operating plan efficiency and increased volumes of heavier commodities, such as Potash, Canadian grain and crude.

•

Average train length is defined as the average total length of CP trains, both loaded and empty. This includes all cars and locomotives on the train and is calculated as the sum of each car or locomotive's length multiplied by the distance travelled, divided by train miles. Local trains are excluded from this measure. Average train length increased by 3% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was due to improvements in operating plan efficiency and increased volumes of Potash and Intermodal, which move in longer trains.

•

Average terminal dwell is defined as the average time a freight car resides within terminal boundaries expressed in hours. The timing starts with a train arriving at the terminal, a customer releasing the car to the Company, or a car arriving at interchange from another railroad. The timing ends when the train leaves, a customer receives the car from CP, or the freight car is transferred to another railroad. Freight cars are excluded if they are being stored at the terminal or used in track repairs. Average terminal dwell improved by 4% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This favourable decrease was due to improved network fluidity.

•

Average train speed is defined as a measure of the line-haul movement from origin to destination including terminal dwell hours. It is calculated by dividing the total train miles travelled by the total train hours operated. This calculation does not include delay time related to customers or foreign railroads and excludes the time and distance travelled by: i) trains used in or around CP’s yards; ii) passenger trains; and iii) trains used for repairing track. Average train speed increased by 5% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase in speed was due to completion of network infrastructure projects in 2018.


•	Fuel efficiency is defined as U.S. gallons of locomotive fuel consumed per 1,000 GTMs. Fuel efficiency improved by 3% in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase in efficiency was due to improved operating performance.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018


•	GTMs increased by 4% for the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to increased volumes of Potash, Intermodal, petroleum products and Canadian grain. This increase was partially offset by decreased volumes of frac sand and U.S. grain.


•	Train miles increased by 4% for the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase reflected the impact of a 4% increase in workload (GTMs), partially offset by improvements in train weights.

•

Average train weight increased by 1% for the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was a result of improvements in operating plan efficiency combined with higher volumes of heavier commodities, such as Potash and Canadian grain. This increase was partially offset by the implementation of CP's winter contingency plan in the first quarter of 2019 resulting in shorter and lighter trains within the operating plan.

•

Average train length increased by 1% for the first six months of 2019 from the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to improvements in operating plan efficiency and increased Potash and Intermodal volumes, which move in longer trains. This increase was partially offset by the implementation of CP's winter contingency plan in the first quarter of 2019 resulting in shorter and lighter trains within the operating plan.


•	Average terminal dwell decreased by 3% in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This favourable decrease was due to improved network fluidity.


•	Average train speed increased by 4% in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to the completion of network infrastructure projects in 2018, partially offset by the impact of harsh winter operating conditions and network disruptions in the first quarter of 2019.


•	Fuel efficiency was unchanged in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. Improvements in operating performance in the second quarter of 2019 were offset by decreased train and locomotive productivity as a result of harsh winter conditions and network disruptions in the first quarter of 2019.

Total Employees and Workforce

An employee is defined as an individual currently engaged in full-time, part-time, or seasonal employment with CP. The average number of total employees increased by 4% and 5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2018. The total number of employees as at June 30, 2019 was 13,330, an increase of 500, or 4%, compared to 12,830 as at June 30, 2018.

Workforce is defined as total employees plus contractors and consultants. The total workforce as at June 30, 2019 was 13,365, an increase of 496, or 4%, compared to 12,869 as at June 30, 2018. The increases in the number of total employees and workforce is to accommodate current and anticipated volume growth.

Safety Indicators

Safety is a key priority and core strategy for CP’s management, employees, and Board of Directors. The Company’s two main safety indicators – personal injuries and train accidents – follow strict U.S. Federal Railroad Administration (“FRA”) reporting guidelines.

The FRA personal injuries per 200,000 employee-hours frequency is the number of personal injuries multiplied by 200,000 and divided by total employee hours. Personal injuries are defined as injuries that require employees to lose time away from work, modify their normal duties or obtain medical treatment beyond minor first aid. FRA employee-hours are the total hours worked, excluding vacation and sick time, by all employees, excluding contractors. The FRA personal injuries per 200,000 employee-hours frequency for CP was 1.00 in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease from 1.43 in the same period of 2018. For the first six months of 2019, the FRA personal injury rate per 200,000 employee-hours for CP was 1.47, a decrease from 1.49 in the same period of 2018.

The FRA train accidents per million train-miles frequency is the number of train accidents, multiplied by 1,000,000 and divided by total train miles. Train accidents included in this metric meet or exceed the FRA reporting threshold of U.S. $10,700 in damage. The FRA train accidents per million train-miles was 0.77 in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease from 1.02 in the same period of 2018. For the first six months of 2019, FRA train accidents per million train miles was 1.18, an increase from 1.10 in the same period of 2018.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018

Income

Operating income was $822 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $195 million, or 31%, from $627 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to:


•	higher volumes;


•	higher freight rates;


•	the efficiencies generated from improved operating performance and asset utilization;


•	the impact of changes in fuel prices;


•	gains on land sales of $17 million in 2019; and


•	the favourable impact of the change in FX of $15 million.

This increase was partially offset by:


•	higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price;


•	the impact of cost inflation; and


•	higher depreciation and amortization.

Net income was $724 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $288 million, or 66%, from $436 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher Operating income, FX translation gains on debt and lease liabilities in 2019 compared to FX translation losses on debt in 2018, and a higher income tax recovery associated with changes in tax rates, partially offset by higher taxes primarily due to higher taxable income.

Adjusted income, defined and reconciled in Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, was $602 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $149 million, or 33%, from $453 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was due to the same factors discussed above for the increase in Net income, except that Adjusted income excludes FX translation gains or losses on debt and lease liabilities and deferred income tax recoveries associated with changes in tax rates.

Diluted Earnings per Share

Diluted EPS was $5.17 in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $2.13, or 70%, from $3.04 in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher Net income and lower average number of outstanding shares due to the Company's share repurchase program.

Adjusted diluted EPS, defined and reconciled in Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, was $4.30 in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $1.14, or 36%, from $3.16 in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher Adjusted income and lower average number of outstanding shares due to the Company’s share repurchase program.

Operating Ratio

The Operating ratio provides the percentage of revenues used to operate the railway. A lower percentage normally indicates higher efficiency in the operation of the railway. The Company’s Operating ratio was 58.4% in the second quarter of 2019, a 580 basis point improvement from 64.2% in the same period of 2018. This improvement was primarily due to:


•	higher volumes;


•	higher freight rates;


•	the efficiencies generated from improved operating performance and asset utilization;


•	gains on land sales in 2019; and


•	the impact of changes in fuel prices.

This improvement was partially offset by higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price and the impact of cost inflation.

Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)

ROIC is a measure of how productively the Company uses its long-term capital investments, representing critical indicators of good operating and investment decisions made by management, and is an important performance criteria in determining certain elements of the Company's long-term incentive plan. ROIC was 17.4% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2019, a 150 basis point decrease compared to 18.9% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was due to a higher invested capital base due to higher Retained earnings from Net income and higher Income tax expenses due to income tax recoveries from tax rate changes in the twelve months ended June 30, 2018.

This decrease was partially offset by higher Operating income and higher Other components of net periodic benefit recoveries.

Adjusted ROIC was 16.8% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2019, a 210 basis point increase compared to 14.7% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher Operating income and higher Other components of net periodic benefit recoveries, partially offset by higher Income tax expense due to higher taxable earnings and the increase in adjusted average invested capital primarily due to higher Net income. ROIC and Adjusted ROIC are defined and reconciled in Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018

Income

Operating income was $1,365 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $198 million, or 17%, from $1,167 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to:


•	higher freight rates;


•	higher volumes;


•	the impact of changes in fuel prices;


•	the favourable impact of change in FX of $34 million; and


•	the efficiencies generated from improved operating performance and asset utilization.

This increase was partially offset by:


•	increased operating expense associated with higher casualty costs in the first quarter of 2019;


•	higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price;


•	increased weather related costs as a result of harsh winter operating conditions in the first quarter of 2019; and


•	the impact of cost inflation.

Net income was $1,158 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $374 million, or 48%, from $784 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher Operating income, FX translation gains on debt and lease liabilities in 2019 compared to FX translation losses on debt in the same period of 2018, and a higher income tax recovery associated with changes in tax rates, partially offset by higher income taxes due to higher taxable income.

Adjusted income was $994 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $151 million, or 18%, from $843 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was due to the same factors discussed above for the increase in Net income, except that Adjusted income excludes FX translation gains and losses on debt and lease liabilities and income tax recoveries associated with changes in tax rates.

Diluted EPS was $8.25 in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $2.81, or 52%, from $5.44 in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher Net income and lower average outstanding shares due to the Company’s share repurchase program.

Adjusted diluted EPS was $7.08 in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $1.23, or 21%, from $5.85 in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher Adjusted income and lower average outstanding shares due to the Company’s share repurchase program.

Operating Ratio

The Company’s Operating ratio was 63.5% in the first six months of 2019, a 230 basis point improvement from 65.8% in the same period of 2018. This improvement was primarily due to:


•	higher freight rates;


•	the impact of changes in fuel prices;


•	the efficiencies generated from improved operating performance and asset utilization; and


•	higher volumes.

This improvement was partially offset by:


•	increased operating expense associated with higher casualty costs in the first quarter of 2019;


•	higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price;


•	increased weather related costs as a result of harsh winter operating conditions in the first quarter of 2019; and


•	the impact of cost inflation.

Impact of FX on Earnings

Fluctuations in FX affect the Company’s results because U.S. dollar-denominated revenues and expenses are translated into Canadian dollars. U.S. dollar-denominated revenues and expenses increase (decrease) when the Canadian dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the U.S. dollar. In the second quarter of 2019, the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar resulted in an increase in total revenues of $33 million, an increase in total operating expenses of $18 million, and an increase in interest expense of $4 million from the same period in 2018. In the first six months of 2019, the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar resulted in an increase in total revenues of $77 million, an increase in total operating expenses of $43 million, and an increase in interest expense of $9 million from the same period in 2018.

On July 12, 2019, the noon buying rate certified for customs purposes by the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank of New York was U.S. $1.00 = $1.30 Canadian dollar.

The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, the average exchange rate between the Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar expressed in the Canadian dollar equivalent of one U.S. dollar, the high and low exchange rates and period end exchange rates for the periods indicated. Averages for year-end periods are calculated by using the exchange rates on the last day of each full month during the relevant period. These rates are based on the noon buying rate certified for customs purposes by the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank of New York set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.

Impact of Fuel Price on Earnings

Fluctuations in fuel prices affect the Company’s results because fuel expense constitutes a significant portion of CP's operating costs. As fuel prices fluctuate, there will be an impact on earnings due to the timing of recoveries from CP's fuel cost adjustment program. The following table indicates the average fuel price for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and the comparative periods in 2018.



Average Fuel Price (U.S. dollars per U.S. gallon)	2019		2018
For the three months ended - June 30	$	2.61	$	2.79
For the six months ended - June 30	$	2.51	$	2.74

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

In the second quarter of 2019, the favourable impact of fuel prices on earnings was $18 million. Lower fuel prices resulted in a decrease in total operating expenses of $13 million. Increased carbon tax recoveries, and the timing of recoveries from CP's fuel cost adjustment program resulted in an increase in total revenues of $5 million from the same period in 2018.

In the first six months of 2019, the favourable impact of fuel prices on earnings was $37 million. Lower fuel prices resulted in a decrease in total operating expenses of $28 million. The timing of recoveries from CP's fuel cost adjustment program, and increased carbon tax recoveries resulted in an increase in total revenues of $9 million from the same period in 2018.

Impact of Share Price on Earnings

Fluctuations in the Common Share price affect the Company's operating expenses because share-based liabilities are measured at fair value. The following tables indicate the opening and closing CP Common Share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and the comparative periods in 2018.

Change in Common Share Price for the six months ended June 30	$	57.62	$	0.26

In the second quarter of 2019, the impact of the change in Common Share prices resulted in an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $16 million compared to an increase of $4 million in the same period in 2018.

In the first six months of 2019, the impact of the change in Common Share prices resulted in an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $29 million compared to an increase of $2 million in the same period in 2018.

The impact of share price on stock-based compensation is discussed further in Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in the Share Price Impact on Stock-Based Compensation section.

Operating Revenues

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from transporting freight. Changes in freight volumes generally contribute to corresponding changes in freight revenues and certain variable expenses, such as fuel, equipment rents, and crew costs. Non-freight revenues are generated from leasing of certain assets; other arrangements, including logistical services and contracts with passenger service operators; and switching fees.

Freight revenues were $1,931 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $222 million, or 13%, from $1,709 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher volumes as measured by RTMs, higher freight revenue per revenue ton-mile due to higher freight rates, and the favourable impact of the change in FX of $33 million.

RTMs are defined as the movement of one revenue-producing ton of freight over a distance of one mile. RTMs measure the relative weight and distance of rail freight moved by the Company. RTMs for the second quarter of 2019 were 39,820 million, an increase of 6% compared with 37,565 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was mainly attributable to higher volumes of Potash, Canadian grain, Intermodal, and Energy, chemicals and plastics. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of frac sand, U.S. grain and Canadian coal.

Non-freight revenues were $46 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $5 million, or 12%, from $41 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher switching fees and logistical services revenue.

Freight revenues were $3,657 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $323 million, or 10%, from $3,334 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher freight revenue per revenue ton-mile due to higher freight rates, higher volumes as measured in RTMs, and the favourable impact of the change in FX of $77 million.

RTMs for the first six months of 2019 were 75,822 million, an increase of 3% compared with 73,920 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was mainly attributable to higher volumes of Potash, Intermodal, petroleum products, and Canadian grain. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of frac sand and U.S. grain.

Non-freight revenues were $87 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $9 million, or 12%, from $78 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher switching fees and logistical services revenue.

Fuel Cost Adjustment Program

Freight revenues include fuel surcharge revenues associated with CP's fuel cost adjustment program, which is designed to respond to fluctuations in fuel prices and help reduce exposure to changing fuel prices. The surcharge is applied to shippers through tariffs and by contract, within agreed-upon guidelines. This program includes recoveries of carbon taxes, levies, and obligations under cap-and-trade programs. Freight revenues include fuel surcharge revenues of $126 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $13 million, or 12%, from $113 million in the same period in 2018. This increase was primarily due to increased volumes, increased carbon tax recoveries, and the timing of recoveries from CP's fuel cost adjustment program. In the first six months of 2019, fuel surcharge revenues were $233 million, an increase of $19 million, or 9%, from $214 million in the same period in 2018. This increase was primarily due to increased volumes, the timing of recoveries from CP's fuel cost adjustment program, and increased carbon tax recoveries.

Grain revenue was $422 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $50 million, or 13%, from $372 million in the same period of 2018. The increase was primarily driven by increased volumes of regulated Canadian grain, increased freight revenue per revenue ton-mile, and the favourable impact of the change in FX. This increase was partially offset by lower volumes of U.S. grain, primarily corn, to the Pacific Northwest. Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile increased due to higher freight rates, primarily for regulated Canadian grain. RTMs increased more than carloads due to moving proportionately more regulated Canadian grain to Vancouver, which has a longer length of haul.

Energy, chemicals and plastics revenue was $346 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $68 million, or 24%, from $278 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to increased freight revenue per revenue ton-mile, increased volumes of crude, liquefied petroleum gas ("L.P.G."), and fuel oil, and the favourable impact of the change in FX. Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile increased due to higher freight rates, primarily for crude.

Energy, chemicals and plastics revenue was $661 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $126 million, or 24%, from $535 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to increased freight revenue per revenue ton-mile, higher volumes of L.P.G., fuel oil and other refined products, and the favourable impact of the change in FX. Freight revenue per revenue ton-mile increased due to higher freight rates, primarily for crude. Carloads increased more than RTMs due to moving proportionately less long haul crude to Kansas City, Missouri, and proportionately more short haul crude to Chicago, Illinois and Noyes, Minnesota.

Intermodal revenue was $404 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $44 million, or 12%, from $360 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher international volumes through the Port of Vancouver, the onboarding of a new domestic retail customer, and the favourable impact of the change in FX. RTMs increased more than carloads due to discontinuing expressway service in the second quarter of 2018, which had a shorter length of haul.

Operating expenses were $1,155 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $32 million, or 3%, from $1,123 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to:


•	higher volume variable expenses;


•	higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price;


•	the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $18 million; and


•	cost inflation.

This increase was partially offset by:


•	the efficiencies generated from improved operating performance and asset utilization;


•	gains on land sales of $17 million in 2019; and


•	the favourable impact of $13 million from lower fuel prices.

Operating expenses were $2,379 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $134 million, or 6%, from $2,245 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to:


•	increased operating expense associated with higher casualty costs incurred in the first quarter of 2019;


•	the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $43 million;


•	higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price;


•	higher volume variable expenses;


•	increased weather related costs as a result of harsh winter operating conditions in the first quarter of 2019; and


•	cost inflation.

This increase was partially offset by:


•	the favourable impact of $28 million from lower fuel prices;


•	the efficiencies generated from improved operating performance and asset utilization; and


•	higher gains on land sales of $15 million.

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and benefits expense includes employee wages, salaries, fringe benefits, and stock-based compensation. Compensation and benefits expense was $383 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $32 million, or 9%, from $351 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to:


•	higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price;


•	higher volume variable expense as a result of increased work load as measured by GTMs;


•	the impact of wage and benefit inflation; and


•	the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $4 million.

This increase was partially offset by lower incentive compensation and labour efficiencies.

Compensation and benefits expense was $789 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $64 million, or 9%, from $725 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to:


•	higher stock-based compensation driven primarily by an increase in the stock price;


•	the impact of harsher winter operating conditions;


•	the impact of wage and benefit inflation;


•	higher volume variable expense as a result of increased work load as measured by GTMs; and


•	the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $10 million.

This increase was partially offset by lower incentive compensation.

Fuel

Fuel expense consists mainly of fuel used by locomotives and includes provincial, state, and federal fuel taxes. Fuel expense was $236 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $6 million, or 3%, from $230 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to an increase in workload, as measured by GTMs, and the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $6 million.

This increase was partially offset by the favourable impact of $13 million from lower fuel prices and an increase in fuel efficiency of approximately 3% due to improved operating performance.

Fuel expense was $445 million in the first six months of 2019, unchanged from $445 million in the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to an increase in workload, as measured by GTMs, and the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $15 million.

This increase was offset by the favourable impact of $28 million from lower fuel prices.

Materials

Materials expense includes the cost of material used for track, locomotive, freight car, building maintenance and software sustainment. Materials expense was $54 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $1 million, or 2%, from $53 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was due to higher unscheduled locomotive maintenance and repairs partially offset by lower freight car maintenance materials.

Materials expense was $111 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $3 million, or 3%, from $108 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was due to higher unscheduled locomotive maintenance and repairs, cost inflation, impact of higher FX, and partially offset by lower freight car maintenance materials.

Equipment Rents

Equipment rents expense includes the cost associated with using other railways' freight cars, intermodal equipment, and locomotives, net of rental income received from other railroads for the use of CP’s equipment. Equipment rents expense was $34 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $1 million, or 3%, from $33 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $1 million.

Equipment rents expense was $69 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $3 million, or 5%, from $66 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $3 million.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense represents the charge associated with the use of track and roadway, buildings, rolling stock, information systems, and other depreciable assets. Depreciation and amortization expense was $183 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $11 million, or 6%, from $172 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to a higher depreciable asset base and the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $2 million.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $343 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $1 million from $342 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to a higher depreciable asset base and the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $4 million, partially offset by the impact of depreciation studies and other adjustments.

Purchased services and other expense encompasses a wide range of third-party costs, including expenses for joint facilities, personal injuries and damage claims, environmental remediation, property and other taxes, contractor and consulting fees, insurance, and gains on land sales. Purchased services and other expense was $265 million in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $19 million, or 7%, from $284 million in the same period of 2018. This decrease was primarily due to:


•	gains on land sales of $17 million in 2019, reported in Land sales;


•	a decrease in costs for locomotive warranty service agreements, reported in Equipment; and


•	costs related to labour disruptions in the second quarter of 2018, reported in Track and operations.

This decrease was partially offset by:


•	higher intermodal expenses related to pickup and delivery services, reported in Intermodal;


•	higher property taxes due to higher tax rates; and


•	the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $4 million.

Purchased services and other expense was $622 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $63 million, or 11%, from $559 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to:


•	higher expenses due to the increased number and severity of casualty incidents, which were the result of difficult weather operating conditions, reported in Casualty;


•	a $10 million charge associated with a dispute settlement, reported in Other;


•	the unfavourable impact of the change in FX of $10 million;


•	higher snow removal and other weather related costs reported in Track and operations and Intermodal;


•	higher property taxes due to higher tax rates; and


•	higher intermodal expenses related to pickup and delivery services, reported in Intermodal.

This increase was partially offset by:


•	gains on land sales of $17 million in 2019, reported in Land sales;


•	a decrease in costs for locomotive warranty service agreements, reported in Equipment; and


•	costs related to labour disruptions in the second quarter of 2018, reported in Track and operations.

Other Income Statement Items

Other (Income) Expense

Other (income) expense consists of gains and losses from the change in FX on debt and lease liabilities and working capital, costs related to financing, shareholder costs, equity income, and other non-operating expenditures. Other income was $40 million in the second quarter of 2019, compared to an expense of $52 million in the same period of 2018, a change of $92 million, or 177%. This change was primarily due to an FX translation gain on debt and lease liabilities of $37 million, compared to an FX translation loss of $44 million on debt in the same period of 2018.

Other income was $87 million in the first six months of 2019, compared to an expense of $103 million in the same period of 2018, a change of $190 million, or 184%. This change was primarily due to an FX translation gain on debt and lease liabilities of $82 million, compared to an FX translation loss of $93 million on debt in the same period of 2018.

FX translation gains and losses on debt and lease liabilities are discussed further in Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Other Components of Net Periodic Benefit Recovery

Other components of net periodic recovery was $98 million in the second quarter of 2019, compared to $95 million in the same period of 2018, an increase of $3 million or 3%. Other components of net periodic recovery was $195 million in the first six months of 2019, compared to $191 million in the same period of 2018, an increase of $4 million or 2%. These increases were primarily due to a decrease in the recognized net actuarial loss.

Net Interest Expense

Net interest expense includes interest on long-term debt and capital leases. Net interest expense was $112 million in the second quarter of 2019, unchanged from the same period of 2018. This was due to a net reduction in interest charges of $5 million as the result of a lower effective interest rate from debt refinancing in 2018 and 2019 and higher interest income of $2 million, offset by the unfavourable impact from the change in FX of $4 million and a decrease in capitalized interest of $3 million.

Net interest expense was $226 million in the first six months of 2019, a decrease of $1 million from $227 million in the same period of 2018. This decrease was primarily due to a net reduction in interest charges of $11 million as the result of a lower effective interest

rate from debt refinancing in 2018 and 2019 and higher interest income of $2 million, partially offset by the unfavourable impact from the change in FX of $9 million and a decrease in capitalized interest of $3 million.

Income Tax Expense

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, an Alberta provincial corporate tax rate decrease was enacted and resulted in an $88 million deferred tax recovery on the revaluation of deferred income tax balances as at January 1, 2019.

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Iowa and Missouri state corporate income tax rate decreases were enacted and resulted in a $21 million deferred tax recovery on the revaluation of deferred income tax balances as at January 1, 2018.

Income tax expense was $124 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $2 million, or 2%, from $122 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was due to higher taxable earnings and a higher effective tax rate, partially offset by the higher deferred tax recovery, described above, compared to the same period of 2018.

Income tax expense was $263 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $19 million, or 8%, from $244 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was due to higher taxable earnings and a higher effective tax rate, partially offset by the higher deferred tax recovery, described above, compared to the same period of 2018.

The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2019, including discrete items, was 14.63% compared to 21.88% in the same period of 2018. The effective tax rate in the first six months of 2019, including discrete items, was 18.50% compared to 23.73% in the same period of 2018. The effective tax rate in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, excluding discrete items, was 25.75% compared to 24.75% in 2018. These increases in the effective tax rate excluding discrete items were primarily due to increased taxable earnings and a higher proportion of the Company's income earned in higher tax rate jurisdictions.

The Company expects an annualized effective tax rate in 2019 of approximately 25.5% to 26%. The Company’s 2019 outlook for its annualized effective income tax rate is based on certain assumptions about events and developments that may or may not materialize or that may be offset entirely or partially by new events and developments. This is discussed further in Item 1A. Risk Factors of CP's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company believes adequate amounts of Cash and cash equivalents are available in the normal course of business to provide for ongoing operations, including the obligations identified in the tables in Contractual Commitments of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The Company is not aware of any trends or expected fluctuations in the Company's liquidity that would create any deficiencies. The Company's primary sources of liquidity include its Cash and cash equivalents, its bilateral letter of credit facilities, and its revolving credit facility.

As at June 30, 2019, the Company had $45 million of Cash and cash equivalents, U.S. $1.0 billion available under its revolving credit facility, and up to $543 million available under its letter of credit facilities (December 31, 2018 - $61 million of Cash and cash equivalents, U.S. $1.0 billion available under its revolving credit facility, and up to $540 million available under its letter of credit facilities).

As at June 30, 2019, the Company's revolving credit facility was undrawn (December 31, 2018 - undrawn) and the Company did not draw from its revolving credit facility during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The revolving credit facility agreement requires the Company not to exceed a maximum debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization ratio. As at June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the threshold stipulated in this financial covenant.

The Company has a commercial paper program that enables it to issue commercial paper up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of U.S. $1.0 billion in the form of unsecured promissory notes. This commercial paper program is backed by the revolving credit facility. As at June 30, 2019, total commercial paper borrowings were U.S. $185 million (December 31, 2018 - $nil).

As at June 30, 2019, under its bilateral letter of credit facility, the Company had letters of credit drawn of $57 million from a total available amount of $600 million. This compares to letters of credit drawn of $60 million from a total available amount of $600 million as at December 31, 2018. Under the bilateral letter of credit facility, the Company has the option to post collateral in the form of Cash or cash equivalents, equal at least to the face value of the letters of credit issued. As at June 30, 2019, the Company did not have any collateral posted on its bilateral letter of credit facility (December 31, 2018 - $nil).

The following discussion of operating, investing, and financing activities describes the Company’s indicators of liquidity and capital resources.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $721 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $10 million compared to $711 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to an increase in cash generating income in the second quarter of 2019, partially offset by unfavourable changes in working capital, compared to the same period in 2018.

Cash provided by operating activities was $1,134 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $26 million compared to $1,108 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to increases in cash generating income and deferred revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2019, partially offset by unfavourable changes in working capital, compared to the same period in 2018.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $455 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $47 million compared to $408 million in the same period of 2018. Cash used in investing activities was $674 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $28 million compared to $646 million in the same period of 2018. These increases were primarily due to higher capital additions during 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

Free Cash

CP generated positive Free cash of $265 million in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $66 million from $331 million in the same period of 2018. For the first six months of 2019, CP generated positive Free cash of $458 million, a decrease of $37 million from $495 million in the same period of 2018. These decreases were primarily due to an increase in cash used in investing activities as a result of higher additions to properties and higher dividends paid, partially offset by higher cash from operating activities.

Free cash is affected by seasonal fluctuations and by other factors including the size of the Company's additions to properties. Free cash is defined and reconciled in Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $572 million in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $191 million compared to cash used in financing activities of $381 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to the issuance of the U.S. $500 million 10-year notes in the second quarter of 2018. This was partially offset by the repayment of the U.S. $350 million notes during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the repayments of the U.S. $275 million and $375 million notes in the same period of 2018, and higher net issuance of commercial paper during the second quarter of 2019.

Cash used in financing activities was $474 million in the first six months of 2019, a decrease of $284 million compared to $758 million in the same period of 2018. This decrease was primarily due to the repayment of the U.S. $350 million notes during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the repayments of the U.S. $275 million and $375 million notes in the same period of 2018, higher net issuance of commercial paper during the six months ended June 30, 2019, and a decrease in payments to buy back shares under the Company's share repurchase program during the six months ended June 30, 2019. This is partially offset by the issuance of the $400 million 10-year notes issued in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the issuance of the U.S. $500 million 10-year notes in the same period of 2018.

Credit Measures

Credit ratings provide information relating to the Company’s financing costs, liquidity, and operations and affect the Company’s ability to obtain short-term and long-term financing and/or the cost of such financing.

A mid-investment grade credit rating is an important measure in assessing the Company’s ability to maintain access to public financing and to minimize the cost of capital. It also affects the ability of the Company to engage in certain collateralized business activities on a cost-effective basis.

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

As at June 30, 2019, CP's credit ratings from Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("Standard & Poor's") and Moody's Investor Service ("Moody's") remain unchanged from December 31, 2018.

Credit ratings as at June 30, 2019⁽¹⁾

	Long-term corporate credit	BBB+	stable
	Senior secured debt	A	stable

⁽¹⁾Credit ratings are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell securities and do not address the market price or suitability of a specific security for a particular investor. Credit ratings are based on the rating agencies' methodologies and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating agencies.

The Adjusted net debt to Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) ratio for the twelve months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 was 2.4 and 2.8, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to an increase in Adjusted EBITDA as at June 30, 2019. Adjusted net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is defined and reconciled in Non-GAAP Measures of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Over the long term, CP targets an Adjusted net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.0 to 2.5.

Share Capital

At July 15, 2019, the latest practicable date, there were 138,576,204 Common Shares and no preferred shares issued and outstanding, which consists of 14,111 holders of record of the Company's Common Shares. In addition, CP has a Management Stock Option Incentive Plan (“MSOIP”), under which key officers and employees are granted options to purchase CP Common Shares. Each option granted can be exercised for one Common Share. At July 15, 2019, 1.6 million options were outstanding under the Company’s MSOIP and stand-alone option agreements entered into with Mr. Keith Creel. There are 1.1 million options available to be issued by the Company’s MSOIP in the future. CP has a Director's Stock Option Plan (“DSOP”), under which directors are granted options to purchase CP Common Shares. There are no outstanding options under the DSOP, which has 0.3 million options available to be issued in the future.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company presents Non-GAAP measures including Free cash to provide a basis for evaluating underlying earnings and liquidity trends in the Company’s business that can be compared with the results of operations in prior periods. In addition, these Non-GAAP measures facilitate a multi-period assessment of long-term profitability, allowing management and other external users of the Company’s consolidated financial information to compare profitability on a long-term basis, including assessing future profitability, with that of the Company’s peers.

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

Non-GAAP Performance Measures

The Company uses adjusted earnings results including Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and for planning and forecasting future business operations and future profitability. These Non-GAAP measures are presented in Financial Highlights and discussed further in other sections of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. These Non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding operating results because they exclude certain significant items that are not considered indicative of future financial trends either by nature or amount. As a result, these items are excluded for management assessment of operational performance, allocation of resources and preparation of annual budgets. These significant items may include, but are not limited to, restructuring and asset impairment charges, individually significant gains and losses from sales of assets, the FX impact of translating the Company’s debt and lease liabilities, and certain items outside the control of management. These items may not be non-recurring. However, excluding these significant items from GAAP results allows for a consistent understanding of the Company's consolidated financial performance when performing a multi-period assessment including assessing the likelihood of future results. Accordingly, these Non-GAAP financial measures may provide insight to investors and other external users of the Company's consolidated financial information.

In the first six months of 2019, there were two significant items included in Net income as follows:


•	in the second quarter, a deferred tax recovery of $88 million due to the change in the Alberta provincial corporate income tax rate that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 63 cents; and


•	during the year to date, a net non-cash gain of $82 million ($76 million after deferred tax) due to FX translation of debt and lease liabilities as follows:


–	in the second quarter, a $37 million gain ($34 million after deferred tax) that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 24 cents; and


–	in the first quarter, a $45 million gain ($42 million after deferred tax) that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 30 cents.

In 2018, there were two significant items included in Net income as follows:


•	in the second quarter, a deferred tax recovery of $21 million due to reductions in the Missouri and Iowa state tax rates that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 15 cents; and


•	during the course of the year, a net non-cash loss of $168 million ($150 million after deferred tax) due to FX translation of debt as follows:


–	in the fourth quarter, a $113 million loss ($103 million after deferred tax) that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 72 cents;


–	in the third quarter, a $38 million gain ($33 million after deferred tax) that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 23 cents;


–	in the second quarter, a $44 million loss ($38 million after deferred tax) that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 27 cents; and


–	in the first quarter, a $49 million loss ($42 million after deferred tax) that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 29 cents.

In the last six months ended December 31, 2017, there were two significant items included in Net income as follows:


•	a net deferred tax recovery of $524 million as a result of changes in income tax rates as follows:


–	in the fourth quarter, a deferred tax recovery of $527 million, primarily due to the U.S. tax reform, that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by $3.63;


–	in the third quarter, a deferred tax expense of $3 million as a result of the change in the Illinois state corporate income tax rate that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 2 cents; and


•	a net non-cash gain of $91 million ($79 million after deferred tax) due to FX translation of debt as follows:


–	in the fourth quarter, a $14 million loss ($12 million after deferred tax) that unfavourably impacted Diluted EPS by 8 cents; and


–	in the third quarter, a $105 million gain ($91 million after deferred tax) that favourably impacted Diluted EPS by 62 cents.

Reconciliation of GAAP Performance Measures to Non-GAAP Performance Measures

The following tables reconcile the most directly comparable measures presented in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP measures presented in Financial Highlights and discussed further in other sections of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the twelve months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

Adjusted income is calculated as Net income reported on a GAAP basis adjusted for significant items.

⁽¹⁾ The tax effect of adjustments was calculated as the pre-tax effect of the adjustments multiplied by the applicable tax rate for the above items of 9.47% and 7.82% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and 13.43% and 13.43% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The applicable tax rates reflect the taxable jurisdictions and nature, being on account of capital or income, of the significant items.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated using Adjusted income, as defined above, divided by the weighted-average diluted number of Common Shares outstanding during the period as determined in accordance with GAAP.

⁽¹⁾ The tax effect of adjustments was calculated as the pre-tax effect of the adjustments multiplied by the applicable tax rate for the above items of9.47% and 7.82% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and 13.43% and 13.43% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The applicable tax rates reflect the taxable jurisdictions and nature, being on account of capital or income, of the significant items.

ROIC and Adjusted ROIC

ROIC is calculated as Operating income less Other (income) expense and Other components of net periodic benefit recovery, tax effected at the Company's annualized effective tax rate, divided by Average invested capital. Average invested capital is defined as the sum of total Shareholders' equity, Long-term debt, Long-term debt maturing within one year and Short-term borrowing, as presented in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, averaged between the beginning and ending balance over a rolling twelve-month period. Adjusted ROIC excludes significant items reported in Operating income, Other (income) expense, and Other components of net periodic benefit recovery in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, as these significant items are not considered indicative of future financial trends either by nature or amount. Adjusted average invested capital is similarly adjusted for the impact of these significant items, net of tax, on closing balances as part of this average. ROIC and Adjusted ROIC are performance measures that measure how productively the Company uses its long-term capital investments, representing critical indicators of good operating and investment decisions made by management, and are important performance criteria in determining certain elements of the Company's long-term incentive plan. ROIC and Adjusted ROIC are presented in Financial Highlights and discussed further in Results of Operations of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

⁽¹⁾ Adjusted ROIC for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018 has been restated to reflect an adjustment to the calculation of Adjusted average invested capital. An increase to reported equity arising from periodic significant items net of tax was added, instead of deducted, within the calculation of Adjusted average invested capital reported in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The corrective revision results in a positive adjustment of 0.6% to Adjusted ROIC for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018 as previously reported (from 14.1%, as reported, to 14.7%), which the Company considers immaterial to its financial condition and results of operations.

⁽²⁾ Tax was calculated at the adjusted annualized effective tax rate of 25.03% and 25.58% for each of the above items for the twelve months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Free Cash

Free cash is calculated as Cash provided by operating activities, less Cash used in investing activities, adjusted for changes in cash and cash equivalents balances resulting from FX fluctuations, and the cash settlement of hedges settled upon issuance of debt. Free cash is a measure that management considers to be an indicator of liquidity. Free cash is useful to investors and other external users of the Consolidated Financial Statements as it assists with the evaluation of the Company's ability to generate cash from its operations without incurring additional external financing. The cash settlement of forward starting swaps that occurred in the second quarter of 2018 in conjunction with the issuance of long-term debt is not an indicator of CP's ongoing cash generating ability and therefore has been excluded from free cash. Positive Free cash indicates the amount of cash available for reinvestment in the business, or cash that can be returned to investors through dividends, stock repurchase programs, debt retirements or a combination of these. Conversely, negative Free cash indicates the amount of cash that must be raised from investors through new debt or equity issues, reduction in available cash balances or a combination of these. Free cash should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, Cash provided by operating activities. Free cash is presented in Financial Highlights and discussed further in Liquidity and Capital Resources of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Foreign Exchange Adjusted % Change

FX adjusted % change allows certain financial results to be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons in the analysis of trends in business performance. Financial result variances at constant currency are obtained by translating the comparable period of the prior year results denominated in U.S. dollars at the foreign exchange rates of the current period.

FX adjusted % changes in revenues are further used in calculating FX adjusted % change in freight revenue per carload and RTM. These items are presented in Operating Revenues of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Reconciliation of Net Income to EBIT, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA

Earnings before interest and tax ("EBIT") is calculated as Net income before Net interest expense and Income tax expense. Adjusted EBIT excludes significant items reported in both Operating income and Other (income) expense. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Adjusted EBIT plus Other components of net periodic benefit recovery, operating lease expense and Depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio

Adjusted net debt is defined as Long-term debt, Long-term debt maturing within one year, and Short-term borrowing as reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets adjusted for pension plans deficit, operating lease liabilities recognized on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets, and Cash and cash equivalents. Adjusted net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is calculated as Adjusted net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. The Adjusted net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is a key credit measure used to

assess the Company’s financial capacity. The ratio provides information on the Company’s ability to service its debt and other long-term obligations. Adjusted net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is discussed further in Liquidity and Capital Resources of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Guarantees

At June 30, 2019, the Company had residual value guarantees on operating lease commitments of $2 million (December 31, 2018 - $2 million). The maximum amount that could be payable under these and all of the Company’s other guarantees cannot be reasonably estimated due to the nature of certain of these guarantees. All or a portion of amounts paid under certain guarantees could be recoverable from other parties or through insurance. As at June 30, 2019, the fair value of these guarantees recognized as a liability was $9 million (December 31, 2018 - $10 million).

Contractual Commitments

The accompanying table indicates the Company’s obligations and commitments to make future payments for contracts, such as debt, leases, and commercial arrangements, as at June 30, 2019.

Certain Other Financial Commitments

In addition to the financial commitments mentioned previously in Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Commitments of this Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the Company is party to certain other financial commitments discussed below.

Letters of Credit

Letters of credit are obtained mainly to provide security to third parties under the terms of various agreements. CP is liable for these contractual amounts in the case of non-performance under these agreements. Letters of credit are accommodated through a revolving credit facility and the Company’s bilateral letter of credit facilities.

Capital Commitments

The Company remains committed to maintaining the current high level of quality of our capital assets in pursuing sustainable growth. As part of this commitment, CP has entered into contracts with suppliers to make various capital purchases related to track programs. Payments for these commitments are due in 2019 through 2032. These expenditures are expected to be financed by cash generated from operations or by issuing new debt.

The accompanying table indicates the Company’s commitments to make future payments for letters of credit and capital expenditures as at June 30, 2019.

Critical Accounting Estimates

To prepare consolidated financial statements that conform with GAAP, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Using the most current information available, the Company reviews estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to environmental liabilities, pensions and other benefits, property, plant and equipment, deferred income taxes, and personal injury and other claims liabilities. Additional information concerning critical accounting estimates is supplemented in Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have not been any material changes to the Company's critical accounting estimates in the first six months of 2019.

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

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other relevant securities legislation. Forward-looking statements typically include words such as “financial expectations”, “key assumptions”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “plan”, “will”, “outlook”, “should” or similar words suggesting future outcomes. To the extent that CP has provided guidance using Non-GAAP financial measures, the Company may not be able to provide a reconciliation to a GAAP measure, due to unknown variables and uncertainty related to future results. The purpose of 2019 revenues, operating expenses and net interest expense FX sensitivities is to assist readers in understanding our expected and targeted financial results, and this information may not be appropriate for other purpose.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on current expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions, having regard to the Company's experience and its perception of historical trends, and includes, but is not limited to, expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions relating to: North American and global economic growth; commodity demand growth; sustainable industrial and agricultural production; commodity prices and interest rates; foreign exchange rates (as specified herein); effective tax rates (as specified herein); performance of our assets and equipment; sufficiency of our budgeted capital expenditures in carrying out our business plan; applicable laws, regulations and government policies; the availability and cost of labour, services and infrastructure; and the satisfaction by third parties of their obligations to the Company. Although the Company believes the expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements presented herein are reasonable

as of the date hereof, there can be no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Current economic conditions render assumptions, although reasonable when made, subject to greater uncertainty.

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

There are more specific factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These more specific factors are identified and discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of CP's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other risks are detailed from time to time in reports filed by CP with securities regulators in Canada and the United States.

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

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes to market risk during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 from the information provided in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk of CP's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Refer to information on foreign exchange risk and share price impact on stock-based compensation discussed below:

Foreign Exchange Risk

Although CP conducts business primarily in Canada, a significant portion of its revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities including debt are denominated in U.S. dollars. The value of the Canadian dollar is affected by a number of domestic and international factors, including, without limitation, economic performance, and Canadian, U.S. and international monetary policies. Consequently, the Company’s results are affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between these currencies. On an annualized basis, a $0.01 weakening (or strengthening) of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar positively (or negatively) impacts Total revenues by approximately $28 million, negatively (or positively) impacts Operating expenses by approximately $15 million, and negatively (or positively) impacts Net interest expense by approximately $3 million.

CP uses U.S. dollar-denominated debt to hedge its net investment in U.S. operations. As at June 30, 2019, the net investment in U.S. operations is less than the total U.S. denominated debt. Consequently, FX translation on the Company’s undesignated debt and lease liabilities causes additional impacts on earnings in Other (income) expense. For further information on the net investment hedge, please refer to Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 18 Financial Instruments, in CP's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

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

Share Price Impact on Stock-Based Compensation

For every $1.00 change in share price, stock-based compensation expense has a corresponding change of approximately $0.4 million to $0.6 million based on information available at June 30, 2019. This excludes the impact of changes in share price relative to the S&P/TSX 60 Index, the S&P/TSX Capped Industrial Index, the S&P 1500 Road and Rail Index, and to Class I railways, which may trigger different performance share unit payouts. Stock-based compensation may also be impacted by non-market performance conditions.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2019, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of CP's management, including its CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the second quarter of 2019, the Company has not identified any changes in internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
