Riding the wave of trade
19 August 2008
Initiating with an Outperform rating and a US$115 target price Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNI) is one of the largest railroads in North America. BNI has a strong franchise, particularly in container trade (intermodal). We think that intermodal can grow faster than average, but that it will also face more price competition. BNI has a good productivity record.

BNI has a strong franchise in intermodal and coal products. Intermodal historically grows above GDP, though it is also more volatile. A weak economy and a weak dollar are likely to result in flat or negative growth for international intermodal volumes in the short term. Domestic intermodal volumes are also likely to see no growth. We expect a recovery from 2010. In the case of coal, uncertainty over carbon legislation could limit growth for thermal coal intended for domestic power plants in the next 5 years. There will likely be some upside from export coal in the short term. BNI is also exposed to the construction market where substantial economic pain is still the order of the day. We expect volumes in the sectors exposed to construction to decrease in 2008. We do not expect a recovery before 2010. All in all, we expect BNI’s volume growth will be moderate in the short term, but stronger than average afterwards.
Coming of age BNI has a good if not stellar ROIC, in our view. The more-volatile container trade has translated into tougher times for BNI in the past 2 years. We expect margins to recover in 2009 and to improve from 2010, partly from continuing price increases and partly from better operating performance. BNI should be making its cost of capital within a couple of years. We expect top-line growth coupled with improving productivity to drive EPS growth at an annual rate of about 18% through 2012.
High oil prices are good BNI has achieved price increases of 1–3% above inflation for the past few years in line with its peers. It has also been able to pass through most of the increase in its cost of fuel. We expect that BNI will be able to increase its base prices 1–2% a year over CPI for the next 5 years. Revenues per carload in intermodal have grown less quickly than those of the overall freight business. This gap has moderated latterly as high fuel prices have forced truckers to raise prices in order to stay in business. Further fuel surcharges should be unnecessary as the price of oil stops increasing. Analyst Arturo Vernon 1 212 231 2566 Rohit Vanjani 1 212 231 2485

BNI US vs S&P 500 - US, & rec history
Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corp Company profile Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNI) is one of two railroads offering rail-freight transportation services over the two-thirds of the US west of the Mississippi River. It is the second-largest railroad in North America by market capitalization. BNI organizes its end markets into six major groups: agricultural products, automotive, chemicals, energy, industrial products and intermodal. Intermodal: Intermodal accounted for 34% of freight revenues and 48% of carloads in 2007. It is made up of two main segments, domestic and international. Both segments transport containers primarily from West Coast ports to the Midwest. About half of intermodal revenues come from international traffic and the other half from domestic traffic. Domestic intermodal includes the truckload/intermodal marketing-companies segment and the expedited truckload/less-than-truckload segment. Industrials: Industrial products accounted for 24% of freight revenues and 16% of carloads in 2007. The industrial group is further subdivided into five sub-categories. Construction products ships 33% of the group’s revenues and it includes steel products, iron ore and various minerals and aggregates, most of which are used in the infrastructure and general-construction industries. Building products contribute 29% of the group’s revenues; it includes mostly forest products linked to the residential construction and paper industries. Petroleum products accounted for 16% of the group’s revenues; shipments include LPG, diesel fuel, lubes and asphalt. Chemicals and plastic products contributed 14% of the group’s revenues, used mostly in the automotive, housing and packaging industries. Finally, food and beverages account for 8% of the group’s revenues; it includes items such as canned goods, perishables and beverages. Coal: Coal contributed 21% of freight revenues and 24% of carloads in 2007. More than 90% of the coal shipped by BNI comes from the Powder River Basin in Wyoming and Montana. This coal is used by utilities to fire power plants. BNI also transports coal from the Utah/Colorado and Illinois basins.
Source: Datastream, Macquarie Capital (USA), August 2008 (all figures in USD unless noted)
Agriculture: This group ships 17% of BNI’s freight revenues and 10% of its carloads. It includes commodities such as wheat, corn and soy beans. Corn-based derivatives including fertilizers, ethanol and sweeteners account for roughly 42% of the group’s revenues. Automotive: This segment accounted for 3% of freight revenues and less than 2% of carloads in 2007. Most of these cars are imports manufactured outside the US. BNI is led by Matthew K. Rose. Mr. Rose has been BNI’s CEO since 2000. He previously held a variety of marketing and operations positions. Before joining BNI, he was an executive in a number of rail and trucking concerns. Current priorities include improving fuel efficiency and expanding the network to capture identifiable opportunities.

Burlington Northern Santa Fe
Investment considerations Initiating coverage of Burlington Northern Santa Fe with an Outperform rating and a US$115 target price BNI, along with its peers, has profited from a strong pricing environment stemming from an oligopolistic industry structure and emerging bottlenecks in the rail and road networks. The container trade accounts for 30% of BNI’s revenue and we expect it to grow above the average for the rest of the customer groups and above average for the industry. BNI also has very limited exposure to the automotive sector that has dampened growth for its peers. We believe BNI has one of the best ROICs in the US and it has attractive prospects for improving it on the strength of price and volume gains. BNI has also been able to achieve steady progress in improving its operating performance.

The lifeblood of nations BNI along with its peers is feeling the effects of steep price increases and a softer economy in flat volume growth. BNI’s customers in the intermodal, construction, chemicals and automotive industries have been hit in the current economic slowdown. Intermodal is BNI’s strongest group. The intermodal group depends on international commerce for 60% of its volume. Container flow into the US has actually decreased as a result of the soft economy and the weak dollar. It is unlikely that we will see any significant appreciation of the currency in the absence of higher interest rates. The Fed is unlikely to raise rates while the economy wobbles along. We think that container traffic will not start to pick up before next year at the earliest. Domestic intermodal traffic has held up in spite of weak results from logistics firms, but overall growth in intermodal will likely be muted for the next couple of years. Longer term, we should see the resumption of above-average growth for the group as commerce typically grows substantially faster than GDP. The trend may not be as strong as in the past because shipping companies have diverted traffic from West Coast ports to their counterparts on the East Coast and more traffic diversion is expected with the completion of the expansion of the Panama Canal in 2014. Even so, the container trade should translate into volume growth of 4–5% for BNI’s intermodal sector.

Volume growth in other sectors is also likely to remain under pressure for the next couple of years. Many of the revenues in the group depend on infrastructure, commercial developments and residential construction. Spending on infrastructure is increasingly being pushed to the states, which in turn are being encouraged to tap into private capital to supplement strained state resources. Most states have not yet mustered the technical skills and political will that it will take to put these deals together, in our view. Commercial-property rents are decreasing as vacancy rates remain at elevated levels. Finally, housing starts continue to decrease year on year, inventories remain high and the financial industry is still finding further mortgage-related charges to absorb. Ken Zener, our housing analyst, thinks that the housing slump has yet to reach the bottom.

Coal can be an attractive segment in the medium term. Over 90% of coal production in the US is used in power generation. The power sector is under-invested and it is now running out of capacity in many electric regions. Half of generated power in the country uses coal as its fuel and the Energy Information Agency projects that additional generation capacity will come preponderantly from coal plants. The difficulty is that many of these coal plants are not actually being built. There is substantial uncertainty around the form that carbon-related legislation will take and many utilities do not want to commit long-term dollars to solutions that could have regulatory downsides. State public utility commissions have to approve new coal plants and they have been reluctant to do so, even in traditionally pro-coal states such as Virginia. In the short term, many utilities will end up building gas-fired power plants in spite of historically high gas prices because they are the quickest to build and because they have much lower carbon footprints than coal plants. Since the power sector really is in need of low-cost additional capacity, the situation could yet change. Coal plants, however, take 2–4 years to build. In the short term, we think it is premature to count on a substantial incremental uptake of coal from the power sector. The mid term looks more encouraging since we do not think that gas, nuclear or alternative fuels will be able to provide the required power-generating capacity on their own. The last of BNI’s important product groups is agricultural. About 40% of the group’s revenues stem from corn or corn-related products. This improves growth prospects for the group because corn has been growing even as total agricultural output has held steady for a decade. We see continued growth of 5–6%.

Volume will likely be flat in 2008 and grow at an annual rate of 3–4% in the medium term
In short, we suspect that there is a strong case to stick to BNI’s low volume-growth scenario in the short term. Longer term, we think that freight can grow above GDP as international trade revives with the fortunes of the US economy.
Coming of age All rails including BNI have enormously improved their efficiency since the passage of the Staggers Act in 1980. BNI has managed to generally improve its ROIC. BNI’s ROIC is amongst the best in the US, but it still lags Canadian National’s ROIC. BNI’s ROIC is now close to its cost of capital.

Looking ahead, we believe BNI will attain ROIC levels of about 11% in 2012, up from 8% in 2007 and operating margins of 26% in 2012, up from 22% in 2007. We think BNI can attain these metrics with likely increases in pricing and volumes, and only moderate improvements in its operating performance.

High oil prices are good BNI has been able to increase prices in real terms and to pass on fuel surcharges, along with the rest of its peers. This pricing power lies at the heart of the rapid appreciation of BNI’s share price over the past few years. Price increases have also been enabled to an extent by the difficulties of the trucking industry. Since fuel accounts for perhaps 35% of a trucker’s revenues, compared to the railroads’ 20%, truckers have been forced to raise prices just to stay in business. They have in effect provided a price umbrella for the rails. This effect is particularly important in intermodal because it is the segment that typically faces the most competition from trucking.

Projection is on a somewhat different basis and it is meant only to be indicative; prices in constant US$ go down because we are projecting a decrease in the price of fuel that we expect to result in reductions to the fuel surcharge. Source: AAR, company data, Macquarie Capital (USA), August 2008
BNI’s revenues per carload excluding intermodal grew at an annual rate of 10.1% compared to growth in intermodal rates alone of 8.8% in the period 2004-2007. In 2Q 2008, growth compared to 2Q 2007 was 19.3% for all segments save intermodal and 18.3% for intermodal alone, indicating that BNI has somewhat increased its pricing capability as truckers adjust their pricing to a higher fuel cost environment. We think price increases will slow down in response to lower oil prices and heightened prudence to prevent regulatory action. We expect oil prices to ease from US$120–130/bbl to US$90–100/bbl in the next 5 years. This means that further increases in fuel surcharges would not be necessary. We expect the surcharges to come down from current levels. Price increases will likely continue at a lower level
19 August 2008
We also expect BNI to moderate its base price increases because, together with the rest of the industry, it faces a very vocal lobby of its own customers demanding lower rates and even the re-regulation of the rail industry. The industry likes to point out that rates have fallen in real terms since 1980 but the story will prove to be a more difficult sell as prices start to climb back up.

It has also been the case that railroad companies including BNI have not been making their cost of capital. This too will likely change in the years ahead, giving more credence to the shippers’ argument that the rails are earning a monopoly profit. Taken together, these trends mean that raising rates in real terms beyond 2012 or so will become more difficult as they would expose BNI to more vigorous shipper and regulatory action. In summary, we think that rates will increase at 1–2% in real terms over the next 5 years.
BNI has a consistent track record of giving cash back to investors We think BNI will continue to buy back shares to improve EPS and share price growth
BNI is an early believer in returning cash to shareholders. We applaud this stance as it looks unlikely that the company could profitably employ all of its free cashflow either through internal investments or M&A opportunities. BNI has already substantially increased its capital expenditures. M&A opportunities are probably limited to regional or local rail companies. The STB is likely to veto anything that looks large and the rest of the companies are sufficiently small that they can be accommodated through a moderate issue of additional debt as part of a rebalancing of the company’s capital structure. Short-haul companies are not ideal fits with BNI’s business, in our view, and, indeed, BNI along with its peers has spent much of the last decade spinning off track to these smaller companies.
Target price of US$115 is above the 12-month average We use a discounted cashflow methodology to arrive at target prices. Our target implies a 2008E forward PER of 15.5x, above BNI’s and the industry’s average over the last 12 months. BNI’s PER is based on a 2009E diluted EPS of US$6.97 compared to a consensus estimate of US$6.98.

BNI is a solid firm with upside potential but it has been volatile An entry point below US$100/sh looks attractive but prices above US$105/sh could yield market returns
19 August 2008
BNI’s shares have traded in a US$25/sh band from US$90/sh to US$115/sh. We think the stock would outperform if purchased below $100/sh. We would be neutral on the stock if purchased above $105/sh. We would be most likely surprised on the downside if BNI were unable to re-price its business as anticipated, through either economic weakness or some form of re-regulation. On the upside, BNI could surprise by growing more quickly than we anticipate through enhanced container volume or additional coal/agricultural exports. Volume growth would also help improve efficiency metrics.

Share price and valuation BNI’s share price has grown at a compound rate of roughly 29% during the last 5 years, compared to the S&P 500’s 5–6%. This performance is based on the great strides in earnings and enterprise free cashflow generation that BNI has taken over that period. BNI has generally been able to command a premium because its return on invested capital was improving at a faster rate than the average for the industry.

DCF analysis yields a price in line with current market values We use a discounted cashflow (DCF) approach as a primary valuation tool and we test for reasonableness by comparing the resulting PER and EV/EBITDA multiples to peers and to the industry average. Valuation approach: We project financial statements for 20 years in our DCF model to ensure that margins, growth rates and capex are consistent with a long-term view of the company even if we choose to model mid-term improvements in efficiency or asset utilization. We model free cashflow to enterprise, take the present value of the cashflows, then add back cash and investments, and finally subtract debt to arrive at the value of equity. We divide the value of equity into our estimated number of diluted shares to arrive at our price target. Valuation parameters: We use a WACC of 9% based on a market beta of 1.1 that we un-lever and re-lever as appropriate to accommodate changes in capital structure. We use 3% as a terminal value growth rate. This number is also our estimate for long-term inflation. Thus, we assume no growth in real terms beyond 20 years to avoid the pitfall of working infinite growth in our terminal value formula. These WACC and terminal growth rates are consistent across our rail coverage. Finally, we check that our projections are consistent with a terminal ROIC somewhat above our WACC. We think rail companies may be able to sustain returns above their WACC because of their unique circumstances. Volume: Volume growth is driven by our assessment of likely economic performance for representative sectors such as international trade, construction, coal mining and agriculture modified as appropriate for the company’s special circumstances such as the recent floods in the Midwest, or the possibility of enhanced coal exports. These assumptions are consistent across our coverage of the railroad space.

Macquarie Research Equities - Report

Prices: Prices are driven by our expectations of inflation, the company’s ability to increase prices beyond CPI for each of its customer groupings and the company’s ability to pass on increases in the cost of fuel to its clients. We expect that base pricing will increase annually at a rate of 0–2% over CPI for the next 5 years. We tie fuel surcharges to the price of oil. Macquarie forecasts that oil will come down to US$90–100/bbl in 2010–12. We expect fuel surcharges to come down proportionately. Costs: Costs are driven primarily by our assumptions on labor productivity and fuel efficiency. We give credit for some improvement in fuel efficiency, and somewhat less in labor productivity. We increase average salaries slightly faster than inflation. Costs related to maintenance and equipment are driven off sales. Casualty costs are driven off salaries. Taxes: We project tax expenses with the statutory rate. We assume cash taxes to be consistent with a fiscal asset life of about 7 years compared with a financial asset life of 35–40 years. This yields a tax rate of about 32–33%. Capital structure: We model capital structure to a target ratio of equity to equity plus debt. This is consistent with the company’s management of its capital structure since it aims for a credit rating near the limit of investment grade. The company’s ratios have been fairly stable for the last few years. Cash / share buybacks: We assume that free cashflow after dividends will be used to buy back shares. This is consistent with the company’s stated philosophy. Our DCF model yields a price target of US$108 for 2008 and of US$118 for 2009. We interpolate to arrive at a 12-month target of US$115.

Our target price is consistent with valuation multiples in the middle of the trading range Our current valuation places BNI somewhat above its record closing price in June 2008. Our target price is 9% higher than our valuation price. We believe this is reasonable as BNI recovers from a slowing economy. The company’s fundamentals remain strong, in our view.

Financial outlook We forecast that BNI will grow its revenues at an annual rate of 8–9% over the next 5 years. We expect BNI’s operating ratio to decrease from 78% in 2007 to 74% in 2012. We expect most of this improvement as a result of higher prices and volumes and only modestly from better operating efficiency.

Operating margin = 1 - operating ratio; the improvement in this margin is basically due to price increases in real terms Source: Company data, Macquarie Capital (USA), August 2008
Revenue: Our revenue forecasts result from volume growth rates staying flat to down in 2008, growing by 3.4% in 2009 and by around 5% through 2012 as the economy comes back to life. From 2013 we assume volume growth comparable to GDP growth of about 2.6%. Prices will increase at around 2–3% in nominal terms throughout the period. Since we factor in fuel surcharges into our revenue expectations, revenue growth is also affected by our forecast that oil prices will ease from their current levels in the years ahead and that eventually diesel prices will follow. We assume that fuel surcharges will come down with the price of diesel. Operating ratio: The operating ratio will decrease as a result of higher real prices and lower expected fuel prices. Salaries and benefits will stay roughly constant as a percent of revenues because we see salaries increasing slightly above CPI. As BNI’s finances become stronger, there is a chance that unions could pressure for increases in real terms. We have not factored this eventuality into our expectations. Depreciation will also stay roughly constant as a percent of revenues because of BNI’s improved capex spending.
EPS: We expect EPS to grow 16% in 2008 to US$5.92, up from US$5.10 in 2007, and a further 18% in 2009 to US$6.97. Our estimates compare to consensus of US$5.91 in 2008 and US$6.98 in 2009. EPS is driven by our revenue and operating margin assumptions, but also by our expectations that BNI will buy back US$1.7bn worth of its shares in 2008 and a further US$1.4bn in 2009. These buybacks would account for 3% and 4%, respectively, of shares outstanding in each of those years.

Free cashflow: Free cashflow to enterprise was about 10% of revenues and 89% of net income in 2007. We expect the revenue ratio to stay roughly at 10–11% through 2012, but the income ratio to decline somewhat to 79% through 2012. The current high cash conversion in relation to net income is due to improved margins and relatively low capex spending.

We project cash taxes will be around 32–33%
Tax rate: BNI’s tax expenses have kept close to its statutory level of 37–38% over the last few years and we expect them to stay there. Taxes paid have stayed at a level of 22–26%. Our projection is based on cash taxes of around 32–33% in the future. The lower cash rate stems from the difference between fiscal asset lives of about 7 years compared to financial asset lives of 30–40 years. Leverage: BNI has a Baa rating on its debt. We expect BNI to conserve this rating since it is close to its optimal capital structure. BNI’s leverage has come down marginally from 44% of debt plus equity in 2003 to 42% in 2007. Its interest coverage, as measured by EBIT / Interest expense, has improved from 4.0x in 2003 to 6.2x in 2Q08. We forecast the ratio to increase to 8.7x by 2012. Measuring interest coverage as EBIT + rents / Interest expense + rents paints a more nuanced picture of BNI’s fixed payment obligations. This ratio stood at 3.4x in 2007. Our forecast assumes today’s leverage as we suspect that BNI will do what it can to keep its investment grade rating.

Company description BNI is one of two railroads offering rail freight transportation services over the two-thirds of the United States west of the Mississippi. It is the second-largest railroad by market capitalization after Union Pacific (UNP), the other rail serving the western US.
Fig 36 BNI’s network lies west of the Mississippi
Source: Company data, Macquarie Capital (USA), August 2008
BNI organizes its end markets into six major groups: agricultural products, automotive, chemicals, energy, industrial products and intermodal.
Intermodal BNI has a large exposure to intermodal and we expect it to grow above GDP in the mid term
19 August 2008
Intermodal accounted for 34% of freight revenues and 48% of carloads in 2007. It is made up of two main segments, domestic and international. Both segments transport containers primarily from West Coast ports to the Midwest and on to the Eastern Seaboard. About half of intermodal revenues come from international traffic and the other half, from domestic traffic. Domestic intermodal includes the truckload/intermodal marketing-companies segment and the expedited truckload/less-than-truckload segment.

Container traffic has been steady throughout the years and is expected to continue to grow at 7−8% into the future, notwithstanding a soft patch in 2007 and 2008. China, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea originated approximately 60% of all maritime container traffic inbound to the US and received about 50% of all outbound traffic. These imports/exports pass mostly the ports of Los Angeles/Long Beach in the south and those of Seattle/Tacoma in the north.

Container flow may change when the extension to the Panama Canal is completed in 2014. There are already instances of shippers carrying goods intended for the East Coast making an all-seaborne trip rather than freighting the containers across the continent. Eastern ports and rails are preparing for more traffic in the future. If this trend becomes pronounced, BNI may see either its intermodal prices or volumes affected. International intermodal traffic ultimately depends on trade flows. We believe that a strengthening dollar coupled to a reviving economy will drive renewed growth in container traffic.
Industrials About 60–70% of the industrial group’s products depend directly or indirectly on construction and auto
19 August 2008
Industrial products account for 24% of freight revenues and 16% of carloads in 2007. The industrial group is further subdivided into five sub-categories. Construction Products ships 33% of the group’s revenues and it includes steel products, iron ore and various minerals and aggregates, most of which are used in the infrastructure and general construction industries. Building Products contribute 29% of the group’s revenues; it includes mostly forest products linked to the residential construction and paper industries. Petroleum Products accounted for 16% of the group’s revenues; shipments include LPG, diesel fuel, lubes and asphalt. Chemicals and Plastic products contributed 14% of the groups revenues used mostly in the automotive, housing and packaging industries. Finally, food and beverages account for 8% of the group’s revenues; it includes items such as canned goods, perishables and beverages.

We think the industrials group will see flat volume in 2008 ahead because its two main endindustries are not likely to recover before 2009. We elaborate on automotive below. Residential construction remains a cloud on the US economy. Sales of new single-family homes fell 40.3% from a year ago in May 2008. At this pace of sales, inventories represent 10.9 months of supply compared to 7.8 months a year ago. Mortgage applications continue to decline. The share prices of home builders have continued to decline and are now in 6–8 year lows.

Commercial construction is also weak. Non-residential construction for the first 5 months of 2008 is down 6% in revenue terms on the same period last year. Although some observers believe that the worst is over, the market remains skittish. Commercial vacancy rates are not particularly alarming at 13% as of mid 2008, but there is enough nervousness among tenants that it has been hard to pass on price increases. Commercial construction is also unlikely to be a source of growth through next year.

Finally, construction of infrastructure will be hampered by strained state budgets, the exhaustion of the Federal Highway Fund in 2009 and limited support for Private Public Partnerships aside from a few progressive states such as Virginia and Florida. It is difficult to see how spending can increase much above the pace of inflation in the current political impasse. Consumer spending is also muted as the economy takes a toll on consumer confidence.
Energy We think coal will grow at 4% through 2012
Coal contributed 21% of freight revenues and 24% of carloads in 2007. More than 90% of the coal shipped by BNI comes from the Powder River Basin in Wyoming and Montana. This coal is used by utilities to fire power plants. BNI also transports coal from the Utah/Colorado and Illinois basins. Over 90% of coal produced in the US is used primarily in power generation. Most of the balance is metallurgical coal used in the production of steel. Exports are starting to be important as worldwide demand is increasing beyond supplies. Prices of all types of coal in the US have seen steep increases over the last few months.

Coal for power stations Traditionally the two key characteristics of coal for power stations were sulfur content and heat content. High sulfur content results in harmful pollutants. Most utilities have already installed or are installing scrubbers at their plants to remove sulfur oxides from their exhaust fumes. Increasingly, it is heat content that becomes the paramount variable to observe in coal.

There are two main coal-producing regions in the US: the SPRB and the Appalachians. Coal from the SPRB has 30% less heat content than that found in the Appalachians, but is also a lot cheaper to mine. SPRB mines tend to be open pit, whereas the Appalachians require deep underground shafts. Production from the Appalachians is expected to go into long-term decline. This means that more production will be eventually required from the SPRB, and that 30% more coal will be needed to substitute for each ton of Appalachian coal. Coal is overwhelmingly shipped by rail and UNP is one of two big players in the SPRB.

This positive longer-term trend is unlikely to come to fruition immediately. Power plants need to retrofit in order to burn coal with differing heat contents. Retrofits can cost US$100m per plant. As already noted, coal-fired plants are being held up due to legislative uncertainty over carbon emissions. Coal producers are being cautious about expanding capacity. In the end, however, we do not see another viable solution to the looming shortage of power capacity.
Metallurgical coal There is also surging worldwide demand for steel primarily driven by China. Iron ore producers have been able to charge steep price increases to steel makers. The price of metallurgical coal is in the range of US$90–100/short ton, up from US$64/short ton in 2004. Coal from the Colorado/Utah Basin is metallurgical (met) grade. BNI will see shipments increase rapidly from a low base, again subject in the short term to cautious upgrading of production capacity at the mines.
Agriculture We think BNI’s exposure to corn will translate into somewhat higher growth for the segment of 3–4% pa
19 August 2008
This group ships 17% of BNI’s freight revenues and 10% of its carloads. It includes commodities such as wheat, corn and soy beans. Corn-based derivatives including fertilizers ethanol and sweeteners, account for roughly 42% of the group’s revenues.

The area devoted to the planting of major crops has not changed substantially over the last decade and it is unlikely to do so in the future. Incremental production will come mainly from improvements in agricultural yield. In the case of corn and soy beans, yield has improved 1–2% per year over the last 7 years. Other major crops have been flat.

BNI benefits from greater agricultural exports because of longer hauls to the West Coast and from increased use of corn in the production of ethanol for the same reason. Petrol consumption is higher in the urban centers along the coast than in the Midwest. All in all, we would expect the agricultural products to grow its volume at an annual rate of 3–4%.
Automotive This segment accounted for 3% of freight revenues and less than 2% of carloads in 2007. Most of these cars are imports manufactured outside the US. Light vehicle sales in the US stayed fairly constant during 2000–07. 1H08 has been more difficult. Car sales have held up but light trucks have lost 19% YTD July 2008. We expect further losses as consumers scramble to re-adjust their driving habits around much higher prices for oil. We anticipate a slow recovery for the market as a whole.

To the extent that BNI has exposure to domestic car makers, freight carloads will be further affected. GM, Ford and Chrysler have lost ground to foreign producers and the latest round of planned plant closures points to deeper retrenching before they are able to recapture share. Although the weak dollar has revived export growth over the last 5 years, we believe incremental sales from this source are not a sufficient counterweight to an otherwise challenging scenario.

Analysis and sensitivities Overall, we think that BNI has solid prospects for the future even if these are fully priced. There are a number of issues that would modify our outlook on the company should they happen.
Strategic issues Regulatory action: There are two Bills in Congress that would curtail BNI’s ability to price its services, and ultimately to invest in its network. The Bill that has seen the most recent activity, the Railroad Antitrust Act, was sent for debate and voting to the floor of the House in April 2008. It now looks unlikely that any action would be taken on this or the other Bill, the Railroad Competition and Service Improvement Act, before the presidential elections in November.
Activist shareholders: Berkshire Hathaway held 18% of shares outstanding in BNI as of March 2008. This investor has doubled its position in the last year. Berkshire emphasizes shareholder value, but it is also well known for letting management steer the company on its own. We do not think Berkshire’s holdings will translate into a substantial impact on the way BNI does business. Deeper recession than currently anticipated: We have built a scenario assuming that GDP contracts by 1% for four quarters starting with 4Q08 as opposed to the modest expansion of about 1% that Macquarie has forecast for the same period. We assume that the main effect of a deeper recession would be on volumes rather than prices. Railroads, including BNI, have been able to raise prices in the face of lower volumes for most of 2007 and the first half of 2008. They remain in a structurally strong position and trucks continue to suffer disproportionately from higher oil prices. Under these circumstances, our 2009E EPS would fall 5% to US$6.65 from US$6.97 and our target share price would fall by about 3% to US$112 from US$115.

Key market sensitivities Intermodal: Intermodal accounts for 33% of BNI’s revenues. Intermodal depends on international container trade for half of its revenues. Although trade has historically grown at annual rates exceeding 7%, or double the growth in GDP, growth can quickly stop in the face of a weak economy or a weak currency, both of which reduce the demand for imports. We think we will continue to experience these conditions in 2009 with a slow recovery after that. We could be surprised on the upside by a quicker recovery.
Coal: Coal accounts for 21% of BNI’s revenues and 43% of its ton-miles. We think that demand for coal is not currently as strong as one would think by noticing the looming capacity shortfalls in power generation across the land because not all power plants are actually being built. This could change if federal legislators pass a Bill that removes uncertainty on how carbon emissions will be treated, and that allows solutions that are competitive when compared to gas. This is a plausible scenario given that gas supplies seem to keep falling short of demand and that the cost of building new nuclear power stations is not competitive with current costs of coal-fired power plants. Since coal plants take 2–4 years to build, surging demand will not ramp up all of a sudden.

On the supply side, coal producers are having trouble finding the capital and the workers to expand production to meet increased demand for exports in spite of surging spot prices. Top coal producers such as Peabody hope to increase production by 10% next year. Smaller producers are likely to grow at a much lower rate. Part of miners’ reluctance to expand capacity comes from a history of boom and bust resulting from the expansion of capacity beyond what new demand can sustain. The most recent instance of this phenomenon happened only in 2006–07.
Agricultural products/ethanol: The total planted surface area devoted to principal crops in the US has stayed roughly constant at 300m acres over the last few years. In spite of high food prices, recent incentives to boost ethanol production have resulted in more corn being planted at the expense of other crops rather than in an increase in the total area planted. For the rails, there is an opportunity to transport ethanol that was not there before as they did not usually transport the processed products resulting from these crops. Congress passed the Energy Independence and Security Act in late 2007 with overwhelming bipartisan support. Among other things, the act mandates increased ethanol production targets. The Bill has been widely criticized for setting unrealistic targets and for prescribing the wrong solution to address carbon emissions and energy dependence. If this legislation were to be rendered ineffectual, BNI would be likely to see more moderate volume increases in this segment of its business. At this time, this development seems unlikely in spite of some efforts in this direction. Construction: Construction remains a weak spot in the economy and it could drag down growth for BNI’s industrial group if it stays in a depressed state for longer than we expect. We have assumed that the sector will start to grow in 2009. Oil price: Fuel now accounts for roughly 20% of BNI’s revenues. We think that this amount will come down as oil prices ease over the next few years to the mid US$90s in 2010–12. There are many different readings of what could happen to the price of oil. If it were to stay constant or increase, BNI’s ability to pass on the added fuel surcharges might be curtailed.

Positive potential news flow Earnings call showing improving operating performance: We see the most potential
upside to BNI from a steady improvement of operating metrics beyond the effects of rate increases and fuel prices, or from stronger volumes than expected. Sustained increases in weekly shipping volumes: The economy has proved more
resilient than expected even though there is no shortage of pessimistic forecasts. In the event of an early recovery, weekly shipping volumes should provide a good indication of better times ahead. Passage of a law on carbon emissions: Removing uncertainty on the future of carbon
emissions is likely to encourage State Public Utility Commissions to approve coal-fired power plants and utilities to actually build them. In this event, coal miners would feel more comfortable in expanding supply while managing to keep prices up. Sustained increases in container traffic at West Coast ports: Signs that imports are
picking up more quickly than expected would lead us to expect stronger volumes for BNI. 19 August 2008

Negative potential news flow Further action on rail Bills in Congress: Incremental actions that make more likely the
passage of any of the two Bills in Congress proposing re-regulation of the rail industry. Reduction of tariffs on imported ethanol: Any legislation that allows states to escape
federally-mandated ethanol targets or that provides an alternative to domestic production in order to meet those targets. Increase in the price of oil: BNI shares and those of its peers have consistently lost ground
with increases in the price of oil.
Potential corporate activity Acquisitions: Consolidation of the rail industry is substantially accomplished. Acquisitions of
short-haul rail companies might make sense if they can provide rights-of-way or terminals in a coveted spot such as Chicago. Even then, community activism can make it tricky to complete the acquisition. We do not expect BNI to undertake acquisitions for the next several years.
