NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

 

1. Loss on Asset Disposal

In the first quarter of 2020, we committed to a plan to dispose of certain locomotives deemed excess and no longer needed for railroad operations. Specifically, during the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a charge related to the loss on the sale of approximately 300 locomotives disposed of in the first quarter, and a write-down of approximately 400 additional locomotives that we are actively marketing to sell. Accordingly, a $385 million loss was recorded to adjust their carrying amount to their estimated fair value. The loss on asset disposal reduced "Earnings per share – diluted" by $1.11.

 

2. Stock Repurchase Program

We repurchased and retired 2.6 million and 2.9 million shares of common stock under our stock repurchase program during the first three months of 2020 and 2019, respectively, at a cost of $466 million and $500 million, respectively.

 

3. Restricted Cash

The "Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash" line item on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows includes restricted cash of $88 million in 2019, reflecting deposits held by a third-party bond agent as collateral for certain debt obligations which matured on October 1, 2019.
