Maersk Reports Strong Q2 Results and Raises Full-Year Guidance
Maersk achieved strong performance in the second quarter of 2026, supported by robust market demand, higher spot freight rates and growth across business segments.

Maersk reported revenue of USD 15.8 billion in Q2 2026, up 20% year-on-year. EBITDA reached USD 3 billion, while EBIT stood at USD 1.6 billion, both higher than the same period last year and the previous quarter.

The company said global transport and logistics demand remained resilient during the quarter. Ocean freight rates increased significantly due to strong demand, capacity constraints and port congestion in Europe, the Middle East, South America and West Africa.

Maersk’s Ocean business revenue increased 23%, with EBIT reaching USD 935 million, compared with a loss of USD 192 million in Q1. Loaded volumes increased 4.1%, mainly driven by exports from Asia, while average freight rates rose 22%.

CEO Vincent Clerc said the results reflected a more volatile market environment, with strong demand from the Far East reshaping global trade flows and putting pressure on logistics infrastructure.

Based on the strong performance, Maersk raised its 2026 full-year guidance, expecting underlying EBITDA of USD 10.5–12.5 billion, compared with the previous forecast of USD 8–10 billion.

Maersk and Kibing Group Establish Strategic Partnership to Enhance Global Supply Chain Capabilities
Maersk China and Kibing Group have signed a strategic cooperation memorandum of understanding (MoU), focusing on global supply chain optimization, decarbonization and digital transformation.

The partnership aims to support Kibing Group’s international expansion in key markets including India, the United States and Southeast Asia by leveraging Maersk’s global logistics network and integrated supply chain solutions.

Ding Zejuan, President of Maersk Greater China, said Chinese companies are entering a new stage of global expansion, where supply chains have become not only a matter of cost and efficiency but also a key factor in responsiveness, resilience and long-term competitiveness.

Ling Genlue, CEO of Kibing Group, said the company’s global development requires stronger end-to-end logistics and ocean transportation capabilities. Through cooperation with Maersk, Kibing Group will further improve its overseas supply chain network and support efficient international business growth.

MSC and BlackRock Withdraw Review Application for Barcelona Terminal Deal
Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) and U.S. asset manager BlackRock have withdrawn their antitrust review application for the planned acquisition of a 50% stake in the BEST container terminal at the Port of Barcelona, Spain.

The transaction is part of MSC’s broader deal with BlackRock to acquire key port assets from CK Hutchison Holdings (CK Hutchison) through MSC’s terminal operating arm Terminal Investment Limited (TiL).

According to Spanish media reports, the two parties agreed to abandon the planned acquisition of the stake in Terminal Catalunya, the operator of the BEST container terminal. The terminal is one of the major deep-water container terminals in the Mediterranean and an important gateway for Southern European trade.

Under the original plan, TiL and BlackRock would acquire a 50% stake in Terminal Catalunya from Hutchison Ports, jointly controlling the terminal together with Hutchison Ports.

The transaction was submitted to the European Commission for antitrust review in November 2025. However, regulators raised concerns that the deal could lead to higher terminal service prices or reduced service quality. They also noted that MSC, as the world’s largest container shipping company by capacity, already has a significant market presence in the region, and further control of terminal assets could create competitive advantages.

In January 2026, the European Commission suspended the review process after the parties failed to provide required documents. The withdrawal of the application followed months of regulatory uncertainty.

The withdrawal does not necessarily mean the deal has been permanently abandoned. MSC and BlackRock may revise the transaction structure and resubmit the application in the future.
The Barcelona terminal transaction is separate from, but part of the broader framework of, MSC and BlackRock’s planned acquisition of CK Hutchison’s global port assets. The overall transaction remains subject to regulatory reviews in multiple jurisdictions, including China, the United States and the United Kingdom.

CK Hutchison has previously stated that completion of the transaction depends on obtaining all necessary legal, regulatory and shareholder approvals and that the deal will not proceed under any unlawful or non-compliant circumstances.
