Forward-looking information typically contains statements with words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “plan” or similar words suggesting future outcomes. Readers are cautioned to not place undue reliance on forward-looking information because it is possible that we will not achieve predictions, forecasts, projections and other forms of forward-looking information. In addition, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. By its nature, our forward-looking information involves numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the following factors: changes in business strategies; general global economic credit and business conditions; risks in agricultural production such as weather conditions and insect populations; the availability and price of energy com- modities; the effects of competition and pricing pressures; industry capacity; shifts in market demands; changes in laws and regulations, including regulation of rates; changes in taxes and tax rates; potential increases in maintenance and operating costs; uncertainties of litigation; labour disputes; risks and liabilities arising from derailments, transportation of dangerous goods, timing of completion of capital and maintenance projects, currency and interest rate fluctuations, effects of changes in market conditions and discount rates on the financial position of pension plans and liquidity of investments; and various events that could disrupt operations, including severe weather conditions, security threats and governmental response to them; and technological changes. Other factors relevant to forward-looking statements are contained in CP’s annual and interim Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and other documents and press releases filed with or provided by CP to securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the U.S. from time to time. 4 FinanCial HIGHLIGHTS – tHree-year sUmmary Free cash (3) ($ millions) u.S.
