$UNPForm 10-QFiled Oct 22, 2026, 3:45 PM ET0000100885-26-000321Original filing

Union Pacific reported strong Q3 2026 results: net income of $2.1 billion and diluted EPS of $3.49, up 16% from $3.01 a year ago, on operating revenues of $7.2 billion, up 15%. Freight revenue growth of 15% was driven by higher fuel surcharges, 6% volume growth, and core pricing gains, while the operating ratio improved 0.1 points to 59.1% despite a 64% jump in average fuel price per gallon. The 10-Q also detailed progress on the pending Norfolk Southern acquisition, under which each NSC share converts into one UNP share plus $88.82 in cash — roughly $20 billion of cash consideration and about 225 million new UNP shares.
