RBC就CPKC与SMART-TD和BLET达成的新集体协议发表评论

By

-- 加拿大太平洋堪萨斯城铁路公司（CPKC，股票代码：CP.TO）上周宣布与两个工会——钣金、航空、铁路和运输工程运输部工会（SMART-TD）以及机车工程师和列车员兄弟会（BLET）——达成初步集体谈判协议。该协议将11份合同合并为两份精简的按小时计酬的协议，涵盖约1700名列车和机车（T&E）员工。 加拿大皇家银行（RBC）分析师沃尔特·斯普拉克林和詹姆斯·麦加拉格尔指出，每份协议的有效期至2034年，为CPKC在美国运营的大部分区域提供了近十年的劳动力稳定性。 CPKC告诉RBC，新的协议模式减少了工作规则的划分，提高了员工的工作效率和运营效率。斯普拉克林和麦加拉格尔写道，随着铁路公司在美国的大部分网络现在都采用按小时计酬的协议，管理层预计全网标准化将带来更多运营成本的节省。 他们补充说，加上之前已批准的 Soo Line BLET 协议（2025 年 12 月生效，2029 年才重新开放），这些协议一旦获得批准，将覆盖 CPKC 在美国的约 81% 的 T&E 员工。

Research Alert: Visa Mar-q: A Blowout Quarter As Consumer Spending Accelerates

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Visa posted excellent Mar-Q results with adj. EPS of $3.31 vs. $2.76 a year ago, beating consensus by $0.21. Revenue of $11.2B rose 17% Y/Y, beating consensus by 4% and marking the strongest growth since 2022. We view this as an excellent result, as concerns surrounding AI disruption or geopolitical uncertainty did not manifest in Visa's performance. Adjusted operating margin held firm at 68.0%, a good result given prior guidance indicated likely margin compression. Strong performance was broad based with data processing revenue up 18% to $5.5B and other revenue surging 41% to $1.3B, reflecting successful expansion in value-added services. Cross-border volume excluding intra-Europe advanced 11% on a constant currency (CC) basis while payments volume grew 9%. Geographic strength was led by LAC (+14% CC), CEMEA (+13% CC), and Europe (+11% CC), with encouraging acceleration in the U.S. to 8%. We applaud the board's authorization of a new $20B multi-year share repurchase program given Visa's muted valuation.
