CSX reported quarterly GAAP earnings of 34 cents per share, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of 37 cents.

"CSX faced operational challenges to start the year, which contributed to first quarter results that did not meet our expectations," said Joe Hinrichs, president and CEO of CSX. "In response, our talented and dedicated team of railroaders are working together to lift our performance and drive success through an uncertain market outlook. We are taking targeted actions to address the network constraints posed by two major ongoing infrastructure projects, and we remain committed to safely and reliably serving our customers."
CSX shares gained 1.6% to trade at $27.79 on Thursday.
