Union Pacific Q2 2026: Record revenues and net income on 12% freight revenue growth, with Norfolk Southern merger process now the dominant forward-looking variable.

Union Pacific delivered record second-quarter results — freight revenue of $6.518 billion, up 12% year-over-year, net income of $1.993 billion, up 6%, and adjusted diluted EPS of $3.41, up 13% on an adjusted basis — driven by fuel surcharge recovery, volume growth, and core pricing gains. The company upgraded its full-year EPS outlook to high-single digit growth, consistent with its 3-year CAGR target through 2027. The single most material new disclosure is the pending acquisition of Norfolk Southern, which introduces substantial regulatory, integration, and leverage risk not present in any prior filing.
