Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The primary objectives of the Company’s executive compensation program are to attract, motivate, and reward executives for extraordinary results that create shareholder value, reinforce a pay-for-performance culture with a significant portion of each NEO’s total compensation at-risk, and implement short and long-term incentive plans with stretch targets that drive strong financial results in achieving sustainable growth.

Peer group, and who names CSX as a peer

Companies that benchmark against CSX

17 companies name CSX as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses CSX in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named CSX in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.

Disclosed peer group — fiscal year 2025

The compensation peer group as the company disclosed it in its own proxy — the reference set behind the percentile above.

Peer reciprocity

Of the companies CSX Corp names as compensation peers, which name it back in their own disclosed peer groups. A peer set the market reciprocates reads differently from one selected in a single direction.

Reciprocity shown where the peer’s own current proxy has been read — each mark is cited in the register to that peer’s filing. A dash means the peer’s current proxy was read and names no reciprocal group including CSX Corp.

Chief executive pay against the peer group

Most recent fiscal-year chief executive compensation at each disclosed peer, taken from that company’s own proxy statement.
