1 | Basis of presentation | |
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared using accounting policies that are consistent with the policies used in preparing Canadian Pacific Railway Limiteds (CPR, the Company or Canadian Pacific Railway) 2004 annual consolidated financial statements. They do not include all disclosures required under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements. |
2 | Change in accounting estimate | |
During the first half of the year, the Company recorded a $23.4-million adjustment to increase revenues related to the April 1-to-December 31 period of 2004. This adjustment reflects a change in estimate as a result of a contract settlement with a customer. |
3 | Special charge (reduction) for environmental remediation | |
In the third quarter, a settlement agreement was reached with a responsible party in relation to portions of past environmental contamination at a CPR-owned property in the U.S. As a result, CPR was able to reduce accrued liabilities related to the property, and recognized a total reduction of $33.9 million to a special charge for environmental remediation recorded in 2004. |

6 | Earnings per share | |
At September 30, 2005, the number of shares outstanding was 157.3 million (September 30, 2004 158.7 million). | ||
Basic earnings per share have been calculated using net income for the period divided by the weighted average number of CPR shares outstanding during the period. | ||
Diluted earnings per share have been calculated using the treasury stock method, which gives effect to the dilutive value of outstanding options. | ||
The number of shares used in earnings per share calculations is reconciled as follows: |

In 2005, under CPRs stock option plans, the Company issued 1,548,400 options to purchase Common Shares at the weighted average price of $42.05 per share, based on the closing price on the day prior to the grant date. In tandem with these options, 508,200 stock appreciation rights were issued at the weighted average exercise price of $42.05. | ||
Pursuant to the employee plan, options may be exercised upon vesting, which is between 24 months and 36 months after the grant date, and will expire after 10 years. Some options vest after 48 months, unless certain performance targets are achieved, in which case vesting is accelerated. These options expire five years after the grant date. | ||
The following is a summary of the Companys fixed stock option plans as of September 30 (including options granted under the Directors Stock Option Plan, which was suspended in 2003): |

11 | Significant customers | |
During the first nine months of 2005, one customer comprised 14.8% of total revenue (first nine months of 2004 11.4%). At September 30, 2005, one customer represented 7.6% of total accounts receivable (September 30, 2004 8.1%). |

12 | Commitments and contingencies | |
In the normal course of its operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions, including claims relating to injuries and damages to property. The Company maintains provisions it considers to be adequate for such actions. While the final outcome with respect to actions outstanding or pending at September 30, 2005, cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations. | ||
Capital commitments At September 30, 2005, CPR had multi-year capital commitments of $693.4 million, mainly for locomotive overhaul agreements, in the form of signed contracts. Payments for these commitments are due in 2005 through 2016. |
||
Operating lease commitments At September 30, 2005, minimum payments under operating leases were estimated at $588.7 million in aggregate, with annual payments in each of the next five years of: remainder of 2005 $38.6 million; 2006 $136.4 million; 2007 $98.3 million; 2008 $71.6 million; 2009 $46.9 million. |
||
Guarantees The Company had residual value guarantees on operating lease commitments of $221.6 million at September 30, 2005. The maximum amount that could be payable under these and all of the Companys other guarantees cannot be reasonably estimated due to the nature of certain of the guarantees. All or a portion of amounts paid under certain guarantees could be recoverable from other parties or through insurance. The Company has accrued for all guarantees that it expects to pay. At September 30, 2005, these accruals, which do not include any amounts for residual value guarantees, amounted to $9.3 million. |
