This $6.4 million (246%) quarter to quarter increase resulted primarily from improvements in domestic operating income of $1.5 million, equity earnings from Grupo Transportacion Ferroviaria Mexicana S.A. de C.V. ("Grupo TFM") of $4.9 million and interest expense of $5.1 million. These improvements were partially offset by a $2.7 million increase in the income tax provision. KCSI's consolidated third quarter 2001 revenue increased $0.5 million and operating expenses declined $1.0 million compared to the third quarter of 2000, resulting in the $1.5 million improvement in operating income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, income from continuing operations was $20.0 million (33(cent) per diluted share) compared to $21.8 million (37(cent) per diluted share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. This $1.8 million period to period decline was primarily due to a $15.9 million decrease in domestic operating income partially offset by a $4.7 million increase in equity earnings from Grupo TFM, an $11.3 million decrease in interest expense and a $3.4 million improvement in the income tax provision (benefit). Our equity earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 reflect the Company's proportionate share ($9.1 million) of the income recorded by Grupo TFM relating to the reversion of certain concession assets to the Mexican government.

THIRD QUARTER KCSI is comprised of, among others, The Kansas City Southern Railway Company ("KCSR"), Gateway Western Railway Company ("Gateway Western") and equity investments in Grupo TFM, Mexrail, Inc. ("Mexrail"), Southern Capital Corporation ("Southern Capital") and Panama Canal Railway Company ("PCRC"). KCSI reported income from continuing operations of $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $2.6 million in the same 2000 period. KCSI's consolidated third quarter 2001 revenues totaled $144.6 million compared to $144.1 million in the third quarter of 2000. This increase resulted from slightly higher KCSR/Gateway Western revenues ($0.2 million) and increases at certain other subsidiaries ($0.3 million). KCSR/Gateway Western revenue growth was driven primarily by strength in coal revenues, which improved 15% quarter to quarter. Net tons of coal shipped increased approximately 8% quarter to quarter due to certain utility plants that increased deliveries to replenish depleted stockpiles and to satisfy weather-related demands. Additionally, a coal-burning utility plant that had been out of service since January 1999 began taking shipments in the second quarter of 2001. Quarter to quarter revenue increases also occurred for certain lumber products, domestic grain, plastics, certain chemical products and military shipments. These improvements were partially offset by overall quarter to quarter revenue decreases for chemical and petroleum products, agriculture and mineral products and intermodal products, primarily reflecting the existing slow economic conditions. KCSI's consolidated costs and expenses declined $1 million in the third quarter of 2001 to $128.6 million compared to $129.6 million in the third quarter of 2000. This resulted from a $5.5 million decrease in KCSR/Gateway Western expenses offset by a $4.5 million increase in expenses at certain other subsidiaries (primarily comprised of a $3.0 million reduction to the allowance for doubtful accounts recorded in the third quarter of 2000 at the KCSI Holding Company). Quarter to quarter declines in salaries and wages ($1.5 million), fuel ($0.7 million), car hire ($0.6 million) and casualties and insurance ($6.0 million) were partially offset by increases in purchased services ($2.4 million), fringe benefits ($0.3 million) and other expenses ($0.6 million). Lower costs for salaries and wages reflect the employee headcount reductions effected in March 2001, while lower car hire expense reflects the continuing reduction in foreign rail cars on the Company's system. Casualties and insurance expense improved quarter to quarter primarily as a result of $4.2 million recorded in the third quarter of 2000 for the adverse judgment in the Duncan lawsuit. Excluding this $4.2 million, KCSR/Gateway Western costs and expenses improved $1.3 million quarter to quarter. The KCSR/Gateway Western operating ratio for third quarter 2001 was 85.9% compared to 89.9% (87.0% excluding the impact of the Duncan case) in the same 2000 period. Excluding the impact of the extraordinary item in 2000 discussed below, equity earnings related to the Company's investment in Grupo TFM increased $4.9 million to $7.5 million in the third quarter of 2001 from $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2000. Grupo TFM revenues increased 2% to $168.0 million in the third quarter of 2001 from $165.2 million in the third quarter of 2000, while total costs and expenses dropped 3% quarter to quarter, leading to an improved operating profit of nearly 20% (computed under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America - "U.S. GAAP"). Lower costs for fuel, car hire and losses associated with the sale of operating property were partially offset by higher employee costs, purchased services and lease expense. Under International Accounting Standards, TFM's operating ratio was 75.6% for the third quarter of 2001 compared to 76.9% for the third quarter of 2000. Additionally, third quarter 2001 results include a deferred tax benefit of $12.0 million (calculated under U.S. GAAP) compared to a deferred tax expense of $10.7 million for the third quarter of 2000. The variance in the deferred tax calculation of Grupo TFM is mostly attributable to fluctuations in the peso exchange rate and inflation in Mexico. The Company reports its equity in Grupo TFM under U.S. GAAP while Grupo TFM reports under International Accounting Standards. Equity earnings from the Company's investment in Mexrail declined $1.2 million quarter to quarter, while equity earnings from Southern Capital improved slightly. Additionally, the reconstruction of the rail line in Panama was completed in July 2001 and the operations of PCRC have commenced. During the third quarter of 2001, the Company recorded equity losses of approximately $0.9 million from its investment in PCRC relating mostly to costs associated with the start-up of the business. KCSI's consolidated interest expense for the third quarter of 2001 decreased $5.1 million (28%) from the prior year quarter primarily as a result of lower interest rates on our variable rate debt and lower amortization of debt issuance costs due to the refinancing of debt in the third quarter of 2000 (see below). During the third quarter of 2000, the Company refinanced $200 million of bank debt with a $200 million offering of 8-year senior unsecured notes. In connection with this refinancing, KCSI recorded extraordinary debt retirement costs of approximately $1.1 million (net of income taxes). Additionally, during the third quarter of 2000, Grupo TFM refinanced $300 million of bank debt with a U.S. Commercial Paper program. KCSI recorded its proportionate share of extraordinary debt retirement costs of $1.7 million (net of income taxes) related to this refinancing by Grupo TFM. Total third quarter 2000 extraordinary charges of $2.8 million, or 5(cent) per diluted share, reduced income from continuing operations from $2.6 million to a loss of $0.2 million. YEAR TO DATE The Company's income from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 totaled $20.0 million versus $21.8 million in the same 2000 period. KCSI's consolidated revenues totaled $431.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $437.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. This $5.6 million decline resulted from lower KCSR/Gateway Western revenues of approximately $7.8 million partially offset by higher revenues from certain other subsidiaries. Year to date 2001 revenue growth occurred in certain commodities, including coal (6%), automotive (102%), plastics (13%), military/other (41%) and certain forest and chemical commodities. These revenue improvements, however, were offset by overall declines in chemical and petroleum products (3%), agriculture and mineral products (9%), paper and forest products (4%) and intermodal revenues (12%) resulting mostly from lower production due to the continued weakness in the U.S. economy. Agriculture and mineral product revenues were also affected by lower domestic grain shipments due a general decline in poultry production in the United States, which resulted in decreased demand for grain deliveries to our customers. KCSI's consolidated costs and expenses increased $10.3 million (3%) to $396.8 million for the first nine months of 2001 compared to $386.5 million for the same 2000 period, resulting from higher KCSR/Gateway Western expenses of $3.4 million and higher expenses at certain other subsidiaries of $6.9 million (driven by the $3.0 million reduction of the allowance for doubtful accounts discussed above in the third quarter analysis). The increase in KCSR/Gateway Western expenses was mostly attributable to a $4.6 million increase in car hire costs and a $3.1 million increase in casualties and insurance costs partially offset by a $2.5 million decline in salaries and wages expense. Contributing to the increase in car hire expense was a higher number of freight cars from other railroads on the Company's rail line coupled with a lower number of KCSR freight cars being used by other railroads. Also contributing to the increase in car hire expense was the larger number of auto rack cars being used to serve the increase in automotive traffic period to period. Casualty and insurance costs rose primarily due to several significant first quarter 2001 derailments and the settlement of personal injury claims. Excluding the impact of the $4.2 million judgment in the Duncan case discussed above, casualty and insurance costs would have risen $7.3 million period to period. Salaries and wage expense declined period to period due mostly to employee headcount reductions in March 2001. Excluding the impact of the extraordinary item in 2000 discussed above, equity earnings from the Company's investment in Grupo TFM increased $4.7 million to $23.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 versus $18.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. During the first quarter of 2001, TFM recorded approximately $54 million of pre-tax income relating to the reversion of certain concession assets to the Mexican government. The Company's year to date 2001 equity earnings from Grupo TFM reflect our proportionate share of this income of approximately $9.1 million. Grupo TFM's revenues increased 4.4% to $496.0 million for the first nine months of 2001 from $475.2 million for the first nine months of 2000. These higher revenues were offset by an approximate 9% increase in operating expenses (exclusive of the income related to the reversion of certain concession assets to the Mexican government) resulting in a period to period decline in ongoing operating income of approximately 9%. Under U.S. GAAP, the deferred tax expense for Grupo TFM was $12.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to a deferred tax benefit of $18.9 million (excluding the impact of the extraordinary item) for the same period in 2000. Similar to the third quarter of 2001, the Company's interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 declined $11.3 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2000 due to lower borrowing rates. Effective January 1, 2001 the Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("FAS 133"). As a result of this change in the method of accounting for derivative financial instruments, the Company recorded an after-tax charge to earnings of $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2001. This charge is presented as a cumulative effect of an accounting change in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. In the first quarter of 2000, the Company completed a debt refinancing whereby it retired approximately $400 million of its debt securities prior to maturity. Accordingly, the Company recorded debt retirement costs of approximately $5.9 million (after-tax) in the first quarter of 2000. This is presented as an extraordinary item in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. During the third quarter of 2000, the Company and Grupo TFM refinanced certain debt instruments and recorded extraordinary debt retirement costs of $1.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively, as further described above in the third quarter analysis. These items are presented as extraordinary items in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. BUSINESS OUTLOOK Michael R. Haverty, KCSI Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer said, "Despite the economic turmoil currently facing our country, our domestic revenues and cost structure showed signs of improvement during the third quarter of 2001 compared to the third quarter of 2000 and the previous two quarters of 2001. Leading the way has been the strength of our coal revenues, which increased 15% for the third quarter of 2001 and 6% for the first nine months of 2001 compared to the same periods in 2000. Overall, however, most commodities have remained weak in the midst of the slumping economy and we expect fourth quarter revenues to remain relatively flat compared to the third quarter of 2001. A significant improvement in our various commodity sectors is not expected to occur until an economic recovery begins. As the year has unfolded, our cost structure has continued to improve. Third quarter costs and expenses for KCSR/Gateway Western have improved 4% compared to the third quarter of 2000 and 1% and 7% compared to the second and first quarters of 2001, respectively. Consequently, the operating ratio for the third quarter of 2001 improved compared to the third quarter of 2000 and the first two quarters of 2001. We expect continued improvement in costs and expenses during the fourth quarter. Equity earnings from our investment in Grupo TFM continue to provide a significant contribution to our earnings. During the third quarter and year to date 2001, equity earnings from our investment in Grupo TFM increased $4.9 million and $4.7 million, respectively. Grupo TFM increased its revenues approximately 2% during the third quarter of 2001 and 4% during year to date 2001 compared to the same periods in 2000, despite the current economic slowdown, which affects not only the United States but has also had a profound impact on the Mexican economy. During this tough economic environment, it is an accomplishment that Grupo TFM has continued to increase its revenues while at the same time has managed its cost structure to maintain an operating ratio in the mid-70% range. Grupo TFM reduced its cost structure during the third quarter of 2001 compared to the third quarter of 2000 and the first two quarters of 2001 and we expect Grupo TFM management to continue to focus on cost containment in the fourth quarter. We and our partner, Transportacion Maritima Mexicana, S.A. de C.V., have announced our intention to exercise our call and cause TFM to purchase the 24.6% interest in Grupo TFM currently held by the Mexican government. This transaction was delayed due to the events of September 11, 2001, and we currently expect TFM to complete the purchase of the Mexican government's 24.6% ownership in Grupo TFM during the fourth quarter of 2001. We believe this is an opportunity to add value to a vital component of our NAFTA franchise. Additionally, we are excited about the commencement of operations in Panama in July 2001, which should provide us with opportunities for future earnings growth beginning in the latter part of 2002. Following the tragic events of September 11, we, like most other industries, have experienced a period of uncertainty. During this time of national crisis, our team of security personnel has done an excellent job of ensuring the security and integrity of our operations and we commend them for their continued efforts. As we move forward in these uncertain economic times, we will respond appropriately. Our physical plant is currently in excellent condition, partly because of the substantial capital expenditures made from 1996-2000, which averaged approximately 17% of revenues during that time span. Because of this, until the economy begins to recover, we expect to be able to limit the amount and nature of our capital expenditures without compromising the quality and safety of our physical plant. Additionally, we will continue to focus our efforts on reducing costs without disrupting our service quality. As always, we will continue to look for opportunities to increase our revenue base and reduce our debt load. As evidenced by the cost reduction strategy we implemented during the first quarter of 2001, we have been proactive in response to a difficult and changing environment. During these volatile times in the equity markets, we appreciate the support and long-term commitment of our shareholders and will continue to take the actions that we believe are necessary to improve the value of our NAFTA franchise and build long-term shareholder value."
