Key Highlights
The company witnessed an increase in revenue in Q3 FY2017
The company witnessed an increase in revenues from US$2,131.5m in Q3 2016 to US$3,135.8m in Q4 2016. However, revenue then declined to US$2,152.4m in Q1 FY2017. This decline was primarily due to intense competitive pressure in the container shipping industry. Revenue increased from US$2,380.2m in Q2 FY2017 to US$3,121.5m in Q3 FY2017. The increase was due to the initial inclusion of the UASC Group as well as the significant increase in the transport volume and average freight rate in comparison to FY2016. The companys net profit margin increased from -2.2% in Q3 FY2016 to 0.8% in Q3 FY2017.
Intense competitive market has affected the companys overall revenue
In 2016, the companys total revenues decreased at 12.9% from US$9,816.1m in 2015 to US$8,550.0m in 2016. This was primarily due to intense competitive pressure in the container shipping industry as well as significantly reduced average bunker prices in comparison to FY2015. However, the companys organic and inorganic growth initiatives will offset the decline in overall revenue. For instance, On 24 May 2017, Hapag-Lloyd completely acquired United Arab Shipping Company (UASC). The merger between the two liner shipping companies was completed in Hamburg. With 230 vessels and a shared fleet capacity of approximately 1.6 million TEU, Hapag-Lloyd is the fifth-largest liner shipping company in the world.
Hapag-Lloyds container shipping and transport volumes increased
Transport volume increased at 2.7% from 7,401,000.0 TEUs in 2015 to 7,599,000.0 TEUs in 2016. The increase was due to alliances and other collaborations formed by the company. Aggregate container capacity increased at 0.8% from 1,564,000 TEUs in 2015 to 1,576,000 TEUs in 2016. The acquisition of the United Arab Shipping Company S.A.G. (UASC) led to increase in the total throughput volume.
