Canadian National Railway Company to Issue Quarterly Dividend of C$0.92 (NYSE:CNI)

CN said strong grain, fertilizer and chemical shipments helped lift second-quarter results and prompted a higher full-year earnings and traffic forecast.

  • On Friday, Canadian National Railway reported second-quarter revenue of $4.75 billion, an 11% increase, and raised its full-year guidance forecasting mild volume growth for 2026.
  • Executives noted resilience despite recent wildfires in northwestern Ontario that forced temporary track closures; Chief Operating Officer Patrick Whitehead confirmed the railway expects no significant business impact.
  • Adjusted earnings reached $2.08 per diluted share, outpacing analyst expectations of $1.96, as grain, fertilizer, and petroleum shipments drove strong results, accounting for 42% of freight revenue.
  • Earlier this week, CN announced two agreements with Union Pacific Corp. to expand operating rights, including a new route to Mexico that mitigates concerns regarding Union Pacific's proposed acquisition of Norfolk Southern Corp.
  • While President Donald Trump threatened 50% levies on certain goods starting Aug. 19, CEO Tracy Robinson stated the railway assumes current tariff levels will persist and hopes for a 'constructive agreement.
