Norfolk Southern's profit took a major hit in the second quarter, driven by a higher-than-expected charge related to the company's derailed train in East Palestine, Ohio.
The Atlanta-based railroad operator said second-quarter net income from railway operations plunged to $576 million from $1.3 billion for the same-period a year earlier.
Earnings per share came in at $1.56, down from $3.45 a year ago. Analysts polled by FactSet had forecast higher earnings per share of $3.16.
The company booked a $416 million charge associated with East Palestine's derailment. Norfolk Southern said in April that it expected the cost to be about $387 million.
Revenue dropped 8% to $3 billion, missing analysts expectations of $3.1 billion, Norfolk Southern added.
