Biggest thing to watch: the price has already been rising for 4 weeks, so timing is the risk more than the business. ## What is the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited share price today? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's share price was $94.43 at the close on 4 November 2026. It has been rising for 4 weeks. That is 9.4% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 1 week in a row. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $70 and $97, and at that close it sat 92% of the way up from that low. Over the last 10 years the share price moved +254% while the S&P 500 moved +261%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited pay? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited paid $0.95 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.27 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $94.43 that is a yield of 1.01%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited on? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited profitable? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited earned $1.0 B of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −17.0% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $4.1 B. Over 4 years profit has grown 9.8% a year on average. That is 24.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $1.2 B. For the full year, FY25 profit was $4.1 B (+11.4% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +12.6% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.7 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −6.1% and revenue +3.6%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited make, and is it growing? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited reported $4.2 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +12.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 17.2% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $15.1 B. The last four reported quarters add to $15.4 B. FY25 revenue was $15.1 B, +3.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +3.6% on average, against 17.2% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +3.6%, against +4.2% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −7.5%, against +5.4% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited keep? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's operating margin was 39.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.7 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 37.6% and 47.2%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −1.6 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 125% of Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $5.3 B of operating cash against $4.1 B of profit. After $3.1 B of spending on assets, $2.2 B was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's cash go? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $8.5 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 18.8% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $8.5 B over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's P/E is 30.4×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +13.3% while the price moved +33.2%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +8.3% a year; about −1.4% a year came from earnings growth and about +9.7 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited business getting better or worse? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE steady at 7.5%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. ## How much does Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited earn on its capital? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited earned a ROE of 9% in FY25. That is up from a low of 8% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 3.1 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 27.5% net margin and 0.18× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 27.5% net margin × 0.18× asset turnover × 1.84× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 9.1% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 6.4% − 9.5% = −3.1 percentage points. The 9.5% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. ## Does Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited have too much debt? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited has total debt of $25.1 B against shareholder equity of $47.6 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.53× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.60 in FY21 to 0.50 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited shareholding pattern? 2.3% of Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited's tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 8.3 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited from balance-sheet trouble? For Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited, the Z-score is 2.11. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.11 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited rank in its industry? 44.4 out of 100, rank 8 of 10 in Railroads, with 81% of the evidence available. Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited scores 44.4 out of 100 against the 10 companies it is compared with in Railroads, ranking 8. Relative strength against the index is 5.8%, and revenue and profit growth are weak. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 15.1 + 10.6 + 5.1 + 13.6 = 44.4. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited compared with? Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited ranks 8 of 10 Railroads companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 44.4 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
