Americas: Transportation. 3Q Preview: Low earnings expectations; remain defensive for now. Equity Research

October 10, 2012 Americas: Transportation 3Q Preview: Low earnings expectations; remain defensive for now Equity Research Key themes We expect 3Q results will be a non-event for the transportation sector. Several companies have preannounced, such as Norfolk Southern, and the market has sold off some of these names already. Our coverage universe has underperformed the S&P by 4.2 percentage points, excluding airlines, since September 4. In our view, the market will focus on: (1) Guidance on the near-term outlook: We think visibility is limited, but investors will still be looking for any early indicators of inflection, in our view. (2) Cost control initiatives: Given the uncertain environment, the investment community will focus on cost control initiatives and other measures that will mitigate the impact of lower revenues from softer volumes/traffic. We think that railroad companies could have some opportunity to positively surprise operationally. (3) Increased focus on the social contract: We believe companies that increase share buybacks and dividends could potentially outperform nearterm, such as Buy-rated NSC and CSX. 4Q outlook still challenging De-stocking is a near-term concern that we think will hamper freight traffic going into year end. Carriers will be challenged to maintain pricing discipline, which we think presents a risk to 4Q earnings. After a period of de-stocking, carriers will benefit from restocking which should lift volumes in 2013E. The question is when, in our view. We believe that the market still needs to discount the near-term challenges before we can look forward to an eventual recovery in global trade growth. Our base case assumes organic growth from mid-2013e. Best stock ideas Buy: CP.TO (CL-Buy, 12-month price target: C$95) While we expect 3Q earnings growth to be relatively soft, we think the market will keep looking through 2012 and focus on CP.TO s investor day in December when we expect newly appointed CEO, Hunter Harrison to present an enhanced roadmap. Sell: DAL (6-month price target: $8.30) and UAL (6-month price target: $16.00): We expect further weakness in traffic during 4Q to undermine share performance near-term.

Low 3Q expectations following earnings pre-announcements In our view, the risk of companies missing analyst estimates for the transportation sector looks relatively high, given operating leverage, and we expect guidance on the near-term outlook to remain cautious. We do not expect a strong market reaction, as expectations have been reduced by several pre-announcements, particularly among the cargo carriers, such as Swift, Werner and Norfolk Southern. Furthermore, the recent market pullback leads us to believe that the market has already discounted a weak 3Q and is focusing on the outlook for the next three to six months. Unfortunately, we do not expect much bullish commentary. Instead, most companies that we cover are likely to offer limited guidance about the future due to limited visibility and ongoing macro uncertainty in the economic environment and political landscape, particularly in the US and China. Catalysts we believe could move the market include: (1) concrete signs pointing to an inflection in trade data, (2) better-than-expected cost control initiatives that could lead to earnings outperformance, and (3) larger-than-expected share buybacks and/or dividends. 1. Guidance on the near-term outlook: In our view, the market will read through 3Q results unless there are any major misses and focus instead on company guidance, and any incremental signs of an inflection point. We think legacy airlines could be an exception to this view, given the strong 5.7% rally achieved since September 21, outperforming the S&P which was down 1.3%. We believe the recent strong performance was initially triggered by UAL s favorable bond pricing and then sustained by lower fuel prices. 2. Cost control initiatives: Given ongoing top line growth uncertainty, we expect companies to focus on controlling operating costs. Class 1 railroads have been improving operating metrics which could prove to be an area that drives potential earnings surprises, as was the case in 2Q when UNP beat expectations on productivity gains while the top line met expectations. We see potential for UNP to repeat these results.

3. Increased focus on the social contract: Companies with strong balance sheets and healthy operating cash flows are potentially in a position to positively surprise the market with larger than expected share buybacks and/or dividends. We believe that the Class 1 railroads, including NSC and CSX, are in a good position to return cash to shareholdings. In our view, the social contract is a risk to Sell-rated EXPD which boasted a cash balance of $1.4 bn as of June 30, 2012, that could potentially support further acceleration of the company s share repurchase activity. A possible change in dividend tax policy could also potentially be a catalyst for a special dividend, in our view. Negative earnings revision cycle to persist, in our view We believe the transportation sector has entered a negative earnings revision cycle which we think will persist at least for the next few months, as implied by negative guidance from several companies and as well as by ongoing mixed macro indicators. We maintain a Neutral coverage view on the sector, as we believe valuations appear to be largely discounting the negative factors. In our view, global trade growth appears to be nearing a bottom from a volume standpoint; however, limited near-term earnings catalysts temper our bullishness. Our sector preference is Class 1 railroads, as the recent underperformance attributable to coal appears overdone, in our view. Our Rail Index has declined 2.2% since September 4, compared to the S&P which has increased 2.5% over the same time period. Airlines: Consensus estimates have been cut significantly, in the past three months, on weaker-than-expected traffic and higher than expected fuel costs (jet fuel prices have increased by 18.4% to $3.27/gallon). 3Q consensus EPS has been reduced by 25% to 44% for DAL and UAL, while JBLU and LUV have experienced downward revisions of 28% to 56% for the coming quarter. We think the negative revision cycle will persist over the next few months, dampening near-term share performance, especially for DAL and UAL stocks which have rallied 2-9% since September 21, compared to the S&P which was down 1.3%, despite disappointing monthly traffic results. Airfreight: We have been cautious about the near-term outlook for global air cargo shipments, given the soft demand environment and de-stocking that we anticipate going into year-end notwithstanding an expected buffer from IT product launches in 4Q which should somewhat mitigate softer airfreight shipments. HACTL, the largest airfreight terminal based in Hong Kong, has reported encouraging airfreight volumes in September, underpinned by strong demand for the iphone 5. Last month, traffic rebounded to 6% yoy after posting gains of 3% yoy in August. Importantly, the rebound was broad based across key markets, including North America. Furthermore, it was not based on transshipments as was the case in August. Logistics: Weak containerized seafreight flows in 3Q, coupled with soft airfreight traffic up until recently, could possibly weigh on results. Expectations have been low and we do not think the results will have much impact on share performance. We note that EXPD stock price has corrected 5% since September 4 vs. a decline of 1.3% for the S&P 500. Railroads: While we prefer the sector, given its relative defensive qualities, railroads are certainly not immune to the soft demand cycle that has been dampening traffic for most transportation companies. Consensus estimates have been coming down recently on weakness in non-coal verticals such as metals, minerals and others. Our analysis of rail freight traffic leads us to believe industrial companies have begun winding down inventories, as evidenced in the marked slow down in merchandise volumes over the past couple months. Recent negative pre-announcements by NSC and truckers such as Swift and Werner lead us to believe that the market has discounted the anticipated negative reporting period.

Revenue cuts have underpinned 3Q EPS downgrades Consensus estimates have been cut by an average of 17% for our coverage universe, undermined by weaker-than-expected revenue and higher-than-expected fuel prices. Airlines: UAL and LUV experienced 3-4% cuts to revenue which have contributed to the sharp 44-56% EPS cuts for 3Q. Higher fuel prices have also dampened earnings expectations up until recently. Airfreight: UPS guided 3Q expectations down during its 2Q results announcement and stated that its results would be lower than the prior year. Consensus EPS estimates have been reduced by 11% over the past three months. Logistics: Earnings expectations for Sell-rated EXPD have come down significantly, with EPS cuts of 12%. The stock has pulled back 5% since September and appears to be discounting a weak 3Q. Railroads: After NSC s pre-announcement, we see little risk of disappointment. We think railroads have the greatest probability of positively surprising, given the ongoing operating improvements.

A potential area of positive surprise could come from higher-than-expected buybacks and/or dividends Railroads offer growth and income which we find attractive in this uncertain environment. Buy-rated NSC and CSX offer the highest incremental income from the social contract with effective projected yields of 9.5% and 7.4%, respectively, for 2012. Neutral-rated CNI and UNP also offer attractive yields of 5-6%. Outside of railroads, UPS has a relatively high effective yield of 5.2%. We believe that the greatest near-term risk to our view on Sell-rated EXPD is the company's capability to raise dividends and increase its buybacks which would enhance its relative share performance. The company has $1.4bn in cash, a significant portion of which could be returned to shareholders through a special dividend, in our view. We think a potential change in dividend tax policy could possibly influence the company s view on its social contract. In contrast, the airlines we cover do not offer a meaningful yield and are generally not viewed as income stocks, given earnings volatility, particularly legacy carriers such as DAL and UAL.

Disclosure Appendix Reg AC I, Tom Kim, hereby certify that all of the views expressed in this report accurately reflect my personal views about the subject company or companies and its or their securities. I also certify that no part of my compensation was, is or will be, directly or indirectly, related to the specific recommendations or views expressed in this report. Investment Profile The Goldman Sachs Investment Profile provides investment context for a security by comparing key attributes of that security to its peer group and market. The four key attributes depicted are: growth, returns, multiple and volatility. Growth, returns and multiple are indexed based on composites of several methodologies to determine the stocks percentile ranking within the region's coverage universe. The precise calculation of each metric may vary depending on the fiscal year, industry and region but the standard approach is as follows: Growth is a composite of next year's estimate over current year's estimate, e.g. EPS, EBITDA, Revenue. Return is a year one prospective aggregate of various return on capital measures, e.g. CROCI, ROACE, and ROE. Multiple is a composite of one-year forward valuation ratios, e.g. P/E, dividend yield, EV/FCF, EV/EBITDA, EV/DACF, Price/Book. Volatility is measured as trailing twelve-month volatility adjusted for dividends. Quantum Quantum is Goldman Sachs' proprietary database providing access to detailed financial statement histories, forecasts and ratios. It can be used for in-depth analysis of a single company, or to make comparisons between companies in different sectors and markets. GS SUSTAIN GS SUSTAIN is a global investment strategy aimed at long-term, long-only performance with a low turnover of ideas. The GS SUSTAIN focus list includes leaders our analysis shows to be well positioned to deliver long term outperformance through sustained competitive advantage and superior returns on capital relative to their global industry peers. Leaders are identified based on quantifiable analysis of three aspects of corporate performance: cash return on cash invested, industry positioning and management quality (the effectiveness of companies' management of the environmental, social and governance issues facing their industry).

Ratings, coverage groups and views and related definitions Buy (B), Neutral (N), Sell (S) -Analysts recommend stocks as Buys or Sells for inclusion on various regional Investment Lists. Being assigned a Buy or Sell on an Investment List is determined by a stock's return potential relative to its coverage group as described below. Any stock not assigned as a Buy or a Sell on an Investment List is deemed Neutral. Each regional Investment Review Committee manages various regional Investment Lists to a global guideline of 25%-35% of stocks as Buy and 1-15% of stocks as Sell; however, the distribution of Buys and Sells in any particular coverage group may vary as determined by the regional Investment Review Committee. Regional Conviction Buy and Sell lists represent investment recommendations focused on either the size of the potential return or the likelihood of the realization of the return. Return potential represents the price differential between the current share price and the price target expected during the time horizon associated with the price target. Price targets are required for all covered stocks. The return potential, price target and associated time horizon are stated in each report adding or reiterating an Investment List membership.
