OMAHA, Neb., July 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Union Pacific
Corporation (NYSE: UNP) today reported 2021 second quarter net
income of $1.8 billion, or
$2.72 per diluted share. This
compares to $1.1 billion, or
$1.67 per diluted share, in the
second quarter 2020.
"The Union Pacific team leveraged volume growth, core pricing
gains, and productivity to produce record quarterly results," said
Lance Fritz, Union Pacific chairman,
president, and chief executive officer. "Beyond our strong
financial performance, we also made progress on our goal to reduce
our carbon footprint, which includes a 3% improvement in our fuel
consumption rate. Importantly, these strong results were achieved
in a challenging environment as our rail network continues to be
impacted by supply chain disruptions, particularly in the
Intermodal space. As we move into the second half of 2021, we will
continue working with our customers and the broader supply chain to
increase fluidity and efficiently handle the strong demand for
freight transportation."

The trailing twelve

recalculated by taking the twelve months ended December 31, 2020,
subtracting the six months ended June 30, 2020, and adding the six

Total debt plus
operating lease liabilities plus after-tax unfunded pension and
OPEB obligation divided by net income plus income tax expense,
depreciation, amortization, interest expense, and adjustments for
other income and interest on operating lease liabilities. Adjusted
debt to adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, amortization, and adjustments for other income and
interest on operating lease liabilities) and comparable adjusted
debt to adjusted EBITDA are considered a non-GAAP financial measure
by SEC Regulation G and Item 10 of SEC Regulation S-K and may not
be defined and calculated by other companies in the same manner. We
believe these measures are important to management and investors in
evaluating the Company's ability to sustain given debt levels
(including leases) with the cash generated from operations. In
addition, a comparable measure is used by rating agencies when
reviewing the Company's credit rating. Adjusted debt to adjusted
EBITDA and comparable adjusted debt to adjusted EBITDA should be
considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net
income. The table above provides reconciliations from net income to
adjusted debt to adjusted EBITDA and comparable adjusted debt to
adjusted EBITDA. At June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the
incremental borrowing rate on operating lease liabilities was 3.4%
and 3.7%, respectively.

The above table
reconciles our results for the year ended December 31, 2020, to
adjusted results that exclude the impact of certain items
identified as affecting comparability. We use adjusted income taxes
and adjusted net income, as applicable, among other measures, to
evaluate our actual operating performance. We believe these
non-GAAP financial measures provide valuable information regarding
earnings and business trends by excluding specific items that we
believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating results of our
business, providing a useful way for investors to make a comparison
of our performance over time and against other companies in our
industry. Since these are not measures of performance calculated in
accordance with GAAP, they should be considered in addition to,
rather than as a substitute for, income taxes and net
income.
