Target Price $85.00 Free Cash Flow Margin 12.3% Days to Cover Short 1.9 and the S&P 500 Index Business Description, through its subsidiary, Union Pacific Railroad Company, operates railroads in the United States. It offers freight transportation services for agricultural products, including grains, commodities produced from grains, and food and beverage products; automotive products, such as finished vehicles and automotive parts; and chemicals comprising industrial chemicals, plastics, fertilizers, petroleum and liquid petroleum gases, crude oil, and soda ash. The company also provides transportation services for coal and petroleum coke; industrial products consisting of construction products, minerals, consumer goods, metals, lumber, paper, and other miscellaneous products; and intermodal import and export containers and Investment Thesis As the US economy wavers, and with the decreasing demand of freight we are pessimistic about the stock. We are concerned that UNP will struggle to create value for the portfolio in the short term. UNP has current returns below the S&P and saw an increase in their beta from 1 to 1.13. Union Pacific s 3 Year CAGR s shows Total Revenue growth of 1.4%, EBIT growth of 6.1%, Earning Per Share growth of 9.8%, Dividends Per Share growth of 20.9%, and Total Invested Capital growth of 5.3%. With these numbers decrease from last years thesis Union Pacific shows continuous declining growth, yet efficiency in their margin. While UNP is a central and midwest leader in the railroad industry we are convinced the company's stock was overvalued and recommend to sell it in our portfolio.

Gross Profit Margin: The gross profit margin represents the percent of total sales revenue that the company retains after incurring the direct costs associated with producing the goods and services sold by a company.gross profit margin increases steadily from 41. in 2011 to 50.4% in 2015, (approximately $8 billion to $11 billion). CSX has grown their gross profit margin from 37.7% in 2011 to 40.6% in 2015. The important thing to note is that with UNP, we have seen a decrease in cost of goods sold by nearly $1 billion while simultaneously increasing revenue $2 billion from 2011 to 2015. 1 Even when UNP saw a decline in revenue, they were still able to increase the gross profit margin. EBIT Margin (Operating profit margin): EBIT/Operating margin is a measurement of a company's operating profitability. This margin can provide an investor with a cleaner view of a company's core profitability. CSX s operating profit margin expands from 29.4% to 30.4%, which is a respectable improvement. More impressively, UNP s operating margin expands from 29.3% to 36.9% during the same period. We can conclude that during this 5 year period UNP was vastly superior in increasing their core profitability. 2 Net Profit Margin:Net profit margin, is the ratio of net profits revenues, which shows how much of each revenue dollar earned is translated into bottom line profits.unp s net profit margin increased from 16.8% in 2011 to 21.9% in 2015. CSX has also seen an increase in net profit margin, but at a slower rate, from 15.7% in 2011 to 16.7% in 2015. We concluded from this that UNP has been able to grow their net profit margin at afaster rate than CSX, this again is due to UNP s ability to grow revenues at a rate faster than they accrue expenses. UNP s ability to continuously increase net profit margins, further reinforces our impression that the company is particularly well managed. Free Cash Flow Margin:Free cash flow (FCF) represents the cash that a company is able to generate after laying out the money required to maintain or expand its asset base. We want to make sure that accounting profits are backed up by tangible free cash flows. UNP has seen a steady increase of its free cash flow margin, from 11% in 2012 to 12.3% in 2015.Their competitor has a much more volatile free cash flow margin, peaking in 2013 at 12.4% then decreasing down to.3% by 2015. CSX is a stark contrast in reliability compared to UNP; UNP s free cash flow margin supports the other profit margin increases. We would be concerned if UNP s free cash flow margins mirrored that of CSX s. Profit margin synthesis: Even though we saw decreases in total revenue in 2015, we saw increases in total gross, operating, and net profit margins, along with support from the free cash flow margin, which indicates efficiencies in the income statement. UNP has posted noteworthy financial results during sluggish 2015 economic period. 3 1 Our average price per gallon of diesel fuel in 2015 decreased 38% from the average price in 2014, as both crude oil and the conversion spreads between crude oil and diesel declined in 2015. The lower price decreased operating expenses by $1.2 billion (excluding any impact from year over year volume declines). Gross ton miles decreased 9%, which also decreased fuel expense. These declines were partially offset by a 1% increase in our fuel consumption rate, computed as gallons of fuel consumed divided by gross tonmiles in thousands. 2015 10 k report And you know I like this deep research everything is relevant to UNP, and the writing is concise, objective and accurate. 2 UNP benefited in prior years by passing along higher fuel costs to customers (the surcharge). In 2015, UNP benefited again from the sudden decline in oil prices, we believe there is a surcharge effect 2011 2014, and a lower fuel cost effect in 2015. 3 Refer to Washburn s APM macro finance economic outlook for 2016. This section is really good now we're digging deep, reporting accurately, and reaching definite, objective conclusions that bear on UNP as an investment. 1.

Analyst Comments: Total asset turnover: The Asset Turnover ratio can often be used as an indicator of the efficiency with which a company is deploying its assets in generating revenue. UNP s total asset turner has remained relatively constant from 2011 to 2015, at.4. Total revenue and total assets are increasing at a similar rate, which is why asset turnover has remained constant. 4 With a constant total asset turnover rate, any increase in net profit margin directly increases return on assets. Return on assets:roa shows how efficient management is at using its assets to generate earnings. The decrease in 2015 on ROA is due to the slight decrease in total asset turnover from 2014 to 2015, and not from a net profit margin decreasing. CSX s ROA has decreased every year, due to a decreasing total asset turnover, complied with an erratic net profit margin. UNP has an advantage on return on assets due to a consistent asset turnover and increasing net profit margin. Return on equity / equity multiplier: Return on equity (ROE) is the amount of net income returned as a percentage of shareholders equity. Return on equity measures a corporation's profitability by revealing how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. CSX s return on equity has decreased in 2011, from 21.9% to 16.9% in 2015. UNP on the other hand has been able to increase their return on equity from 17.7% in 2011 to 23.1% in 2015; this is a direct result of an increase in equity multiplier and ROA. The change in equity multiplier is due to UNP seeing an accelerated increase in total assets while simultaneously seeing only a modest increase in total equity. Therefore, we found UNP to be superior in profitability ratios when compared to CSX. 4 Union Pacific has significant pricing power, allowing it to lock in more profitable contracts. Argus 1.

As we can see in this chart, UNP s P/E ratio had seen increases from 2011 through 2014, or 15.6 to 20.6. However, in 2015, UNP s P/E ratio dropped to a 5 year low of 14.2. While we did see a drop in P/E ratio we still see that they are in the reasonable range of 12 18 sitting at 14.2. CSX s P/E ratio followed a similar pattern, increasing from 12.3 in 2011 to 19.1 in 2014, and then dropping to 13.1 in 2015. UNP s price to earnings dip follows a sector wide price to earnings downtrend, The P/e ratio decreased because the market is willing to pay less in 2015 than they were in 2014 based on their projected future earnings. Earnings Yield: Earnings yield expresses net income (ttm) as a percentage of the price investors are currently paying to buy a fractional claim on that net income.unp s earnings yield declined from 2011 through 2014, from 6.4% to 4.8% then increasing to 7% in 2015. CSX s earnings yield has also declined from 2011 through 2014, increasing to 7.7% in 2015.UNPs earning yield increased therefore indicating the market is pricing their stock more cheaply relative to their earnings. Dividend Yield: Dividend yield indicates how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its share price. UNP s dividend yieldona 5 year basis, has increased from 1.8% to 2.8%. CSX s dividend yield has also increased since 2011, but at a much slower pace. UNP continued to increase their dividends from 2011 to 2015, however their stock price from 2011 to 2014 outpaced their dividends. Even though in 2015 their stock price fell, UNP increased their dividends by 1 which is why we saw a an increase from 1.6% to 2.8% 6 This continuous increase in dividend yield shows investors that UNP is confident in the future of the company, and for dividend seeking investors this is a good sign. 5 Additionally, we must build or acquire and maintain our rail system; trucks and barges are able to use public rights of way maintained by public entities 10k 6 $4.5 billion for cash was used in investing activities and a (UNP had a)1 increase in dividends declared per share. 2.

Total Debt to Assets Long-Term Debt to Equity Analyst Comments: Current Ratio:The current ratio is simply current assets over current liabilities, a quick check to make sure the company's short term liabilities can be covered by liquid short term assets. UNP s current ratio has maintained between the range of 1.05 and 1.29. CSX s has seen relatively similar movement in the current ratio during this period, but saw a significant high of 1.52 in 2015 (attributed to an increase in total current assets and a decrease in total current liabilities). We found this ratio to be inconclusive as it has remained within the reasonable range for both companies. We can conclude UNP has adequate liquidity. Total Debt to Assets:Total debt to assets defines the total amount of debt relative to assets. UNP s debt to assets decreased from 2011 to 2013, from 19.3% to 17.8%. However, in 2014 UNP s total debt to assets increased to 20.9%, then increased again to 24.9% in 2015. CSX s total debt to assets has also increased over this 5 year period, from 29.8% to 30.. UNP has been using debt to purchase long lived assets as stated in their 10k. 7 From this we have concluded that management feels confident in the future financial security of their company, and UNP is using debt to finance their long lived assets. Long Term Debt to Equity: Long term debt to equity is used to measure a company s financial leverage; the ratio indicates how much debt a company is using to finance its assets relative to the amount of value represented in the shareholders equity. UNP s long term debt to equity ratio has steadily increased from 2011 to 2015, from 46.8% to 65.7% (or $8.7 billion to $13.6 billion). CSX has seen a decline in debt to equity over the 5 year period, from 103.3% to 91.7%. Though CSX is reducing their long term debt to equity, they have a significantly higher amount of debt relative to shareholder equity. As previously stated we concluded that UNP was financing long lived assets with more debt, therefore this explains why long term debt to equity has also been increasing. (See notation 6) 7 Higher capital investments, including the early buyout of the long term operating lease of our headquarters building for approximately $261 million, drove the increase in cash used in investing activities in 2014 compared to 2013. Significant investments also were made for new locomotives, freight cars and containers, and capacity and commercial facility projects. Capital investments in 2014 also included $99 million for the early buyout of locomotives and freight cars under long term operating leases, which we exercised due to favorable economic terms and market conditions. Higher capital investments in locomotives and freight cars, including $327 million in early lease buyouts, which we exercised due to favorable economic terms and market conditions, drove the increase in cash used in investing activities in 2015 compared to 2014. 2.

UNP has steadily invested more in PPE each year, increasing from $39.5 billion in 2011 to $48 billion in 2015. Net PPE makes up a substantial portion of UNP s total invested capital. Our conclusion is that UNP is investing in assets for the future. (See notes at bottom) Net Operating Profit After Tax and Free Cash Flow: NOPAT is simply after tax EBIT. NOPAT is used by analysts and investors as a precise and accurate measurement of profitability to compare a company's financial results across its history and against competitors. UNP s NOPAT has increased from 2011 to 2015, from $3.5 billion to $5 billion. Along with NOPAT increasing, UNP s free cash flow has increased from $2.2 billion in 2012 to $2.6 billion in 2015. Note that both NOPAT and Free cash flow has seen a slight decline in 2015 from their previous 2014 high. Just to reiterate Free cash flow (FCF) represents the cash that a company is able to generate after laying out the money required to maintain or expand its asset base. Due to the 2015 decline we had an inconclusive outlook but felt as though the past data indicated positive operating income efficiencies (note operating efficiency margin). See also that EBIT, NOPAT, Total Capital and # of shares all declined, resulting in constant FCF per share. UNP has been investing in the following: Rail and other track material $ 734(Million), Ties 455(Million) Ballast 438(Million), Total road infrastructure replacements 1.860 (Billion), line expansion and other capacity projects 457(Million), commercial facilities 227(Million), total capacity and commercial facilities 684(Million), Locomotive and freight cars 1436, 3.

Analyst Comments: WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital)*: The WACC measures each investor's expected return in proportion to their contribution to financing the firm's assets. We have increased UNP s beta to coincide with the Argus predicted beta, but did not alter CSX s beta. We have updated both firms RF rate to 1.74 to coincide with 02/23/2016 10 yr. treasury note (as stated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury). All else equal, an investor now receives slightly less value per capital investment made by UNP. That means for every dollar that UNP invests into capital, UNP is creating.1 less value. Return on Invested Capital: ROIC is a calculation used to assess a company's efficiency at allocating the capital under its control to profitable investments. UNP s ROIC has overall increased in this 5 year period. ROIC increased from 8.7% in 2011 to 11.4% in 2014, and has had a slight contraction in 2015, to 1. Note that UNP s WACC is at 8.557%, which is positive indication, since it is below ROIC. When we compare it to CSX you will notice that their ROIC is paltry in comparison with UNP, and only when we match beta s does CSX generate a ROIC greater than their WACC. However, in both scenarios we see in 2015 a ROIC below the WACC, meaning they are destroying value. In regards to this model UNP has excelled at earning a higher ROIC with a cost of capital 3.

UNP has been able to increase their economic profit over this 5 year period from 63 to 727. From 2013 to 2014 UNP s EVA jumped from 771 to 1,343, before dropping to the 727 in 2015. UNP has increased its economic profit (EVA) every year since 2011. While CSX has seen a negative EVA. From our model we can conclude that UNP is a far more economically profitable company when compared to CSX. MVA is measured as the market value of all the firm's securities minus the book value of all the firm's securities and therefore is a basic measure of value creation. As was the case with many of the value creation metrics, UNP posts significantly higher MVA/shares than CSX in every year. Please refer to the note for value creation. MVA moves in line with EVA however, according to our model it is consistenly overvalued. In conclusion the market has overvalued UNPs stock from 2011 2015 To demonstrate value creation please refer to the following equation. (Equity Market cap Total Equity on Balance Sheet) $67.737.702 = $47.035(billion). Meaning that UNP has increased the value of the.702 of capital contributed to the firm by shareholders by $47.035 billion. This is genuine value creation 3.

Managment expects modest long term growth longer term, however, due to the expectation that the U.S economy will continue to improve at a modest pace, wth some markets outperforming others. This is based on reports from the 10 K, Argus, and Morning star. We remained moderately pessimistic. Gross Profit and Operating Income: We kept an initial modest growth rate, with a. increase per year. We based this off of our historical data up to 2015 and according to the 10 K, In the current environment, we expect continued margin improvement driven by continued pricing opportunities, ongoing productivity initiatives, and the ability to leverage our resources and strengthen our franchise. Tax Rate: We saw no indications for a changing tax rate, therefore we kept it at its historical average. Net Income: Based off of previously stated facts about management, management's goal to increase profit margins we have forecasted netcinome to increase percetage wise by.3% per year for the next 5 years. Total Common Shares: UNP has a buyback program according to the 10 K, however they have not specified the amount that they will buy back in the coming years. so we based it off their historical data. Dividend Per Share: Based off the Argus report, UNP has estimated dividends to be $2.34 for 2016 and $2.50 for 2017. however we remained pessimistic and decreased the growth rate to 2017 and we ultimately decreased the long term growth rate down to 2%. BALANCE SHEET: The forecasts we have implemented for the Balance Sheet have been done with a margin of safety based off of the Historical Averages and trends unless stated otherwise. Net PPE and Total Assets: In 2016 we expect an increase in both Net PPE and Total assets because of 3.75 billion being invested. Because management in uncertain of the current economic conditions they may revise their current business plan for investing into 2016E 2017E 2018E 2019E 2020E new assets, therefore to be pessimistic we maintained their current level of assets. 4.

From 2017 to 2020, our model predicted that total invested capital will remain constant. We concluded this by the comments from managment in the 10 K citing that they would revise their business plans if economic conditions continue to be uncertain. NOPAT: Revenues decreased, while our margins increased causing NOPAT saw a decrease from 2015 2017, then begin to bounce back from 2018 2020. Which indictaes from 2018 2020 UNP will see an increase in bottom line profits. Free Cash Flow: If management does decide not to invest into assets and total invested capital then free cash flow will remained relatively high, as UNP is no longer increasing their rate of investing. We cant speculate on how UNP will spend this excess amount of cash flows, managment will have a decision to make on how to allocate their cash in the future years. 4.

We forecasted that there would be a modest increase in 2019 and 2020. We have forecasted that UNP will increase their value from 2018 2020. ROIC and WACC: We see a slight decline in ROIC for 2016, from 2017 to 2020, ROIC grows at a sluggish rate. Even with the two negative years following 2015, ROIC remains above WACC. This would indicate that we are still projected to earn a positive return on capital. 4. Forecasting and Valuation UNP, Page 13 of 17 Copyright Robert A. Weigand, Ph.D., 2016

After this decline we expect the P/E ratio to remain relatively flat. It is important to note that UNP's projected P/E ratio remains within the reasonable range of 12 18. Dividend Yield: We projected that dividends will increase in 2016 according to argus, then slowly taper back down. We believe that as UNP's revenue increase in the future, that they will decelerate the rate in which they increase dividends. With the increase in dividend yield this is a good sign for dividend seeking investors. Earning Yield: We have projected that earnings yield will remanin fairly constant based on the 2015 year end. UNPs earning yield stayed consitent therefore indicating the market is pricing their stock more cheaply relative to their earnings. 4. Forecasting and Valuation UNP, Page 14 of 17 Copyright Robert A.
