2017 compared to 2016
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $5,484 million, an increase of $1,844 million, or 51%, when compared to 2016, and
diluted earnings per share increased by 55% to $7.24. The increase was primarily due to a deferred income tax recovery of $1,764 million
($2.33 per diluted share) resulting from the enactment of the U.S. Tax Reform and the impact of higher volumes.
Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased by $246 million, or 5%, to $5,558 million. The increase mainly
reflects increased revenues from higher volumes, freight rate increases and higher applicable fuel surcharge rates, partly offset by higher
costs from increased volumes and higher fuel prices. The operating ratio, defined as operating expenses as a percentage of revenues, was
57.4% in 2017, compared to 55.9% in 2016. Higher fuel prices had a 0.9-point impact on the increase for the year.
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2017 totaled $13,041 million compared to $12,037 million in 2016. The increase of $1,004
million, or 8%, was mainly attributable to higher volumes of traffic in overseas intermodal, frac sand, coal and petroleum coke exports, and
Canadian grain; freight rate increases; and higher applicable fuel surcharge rates; partly offset by the negative translation impact of a
stronger Canadian dollar.
Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2017 amounted to $7,483 million compared to $6,725 million in 2016. The
increase of $758 million, or 11%, was mainly due to higher costs from increased volumes and higher fuel prices, partly offset by the positive
translation impact of a stronger Canadian dollar.
