NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Impairment of Investment

 

During 2020, we recorded an other-than-temporary impairment of $99 million related to the carrying value of an equity method investment. This non-cash impairment charge is recorded in “Purchased services and rents” on the Consolidated Statements of Income and had a $74 million impact on net income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020.

 

2. Loss on Asset Disposal

 

In 2020, we sold 703 locomotives deemed excess and no longer needed for railroad operations. We evaluated these locomotive retirements and concluded they were abnormal. Accordingly, we recorded a $385 million loss to adjust their carrying amount to their estimated fair value, which resulted in a $97 million tax benefit.

 

3. Stock Repurchase Program

 

We repurchased and retired 9.4 million and 5.3 million shares of common stock under our stock repurchase program during the first nine months of 2021 and 2020, respectively, at a cost of $2.5 billion and $960 million, respectively.
