We expect top line headwinds in the form of lower shipment volumes and fuel surcharge revenue to negatively impact CSX’s Q1 revenue and profitability. A decline in the demand for coal by utilities as a result of low natural gas prices and lower fuel surcharge revenue will negatively impact CSX’s revenue in 2016, which will be reflected in the company’s Q1 revenue figures and consequently, its bottom line.
