ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (ZIM) reported its second-quarter (Q2) 2025 financial results, reflecting the impact of market volatility and trade disruptions. The company's revenue decreased by 15% to $1.6 billion, while net income (GAAP) fell to $24 million, a significant contraction from the prior year's $373 million [1].Key financial highlights include:
- Adjusted EBITDA and EBIT margins compressed to 29% and 9%, respectively, down from 40% and 25% in Q2 2024.
- Total liquidity stood at $2.9 billion as of June 30, 2025, after $470 million in dividend payments during Q2 2025.
- Free cash flow was $426 million in Q2 2025, a decrease of $286 million from Q2 2024.
Management cited volatility from American tariff announcements as a primary factor impacting both volume and pricing throughout the quarter. The company reinforced its focus on fleet modernization, emphasizing the delivery of 46 newbuild vessels in 2023 and 2024, and new LNG-capable ships committed for delivery in 2027 and 2028, as key cost and environmental differentiators [1].
ZIM's full-year guidance was updated to reflect improved downside confidence, yet continued anticipation of second-half weakness. The company expects adjusted EBITDA between $1.8 billion to $2.2 billion and adjusted EBIT between $550 million to $950 million for 2025 [1].
