quarter demand for the Company’s expedited services.

The Company expects volume in full year 2025 to be lower than the level achieved last year.

demand after the U.S. and China agreed to a temporary reduced level of tariffs. During the second quarter, the Company also moved with its customers as they shifted production throughout Asia in response to the tariffs, which resulted in higher container volume levels outside of China than the levels achieved in the first quarter. For the third quarter 2025, the Company expects lower year-over-year freight rates and volume compared to the elevated demand levels achieved in the third quarter last year and the Company’s expectation of a muted peak season this year. Assuming tariffs and global trade, regulatory measures, the trajectory of the U.S. economy and other geopolitical factors do not materially change from current conditions, the Company expects, for full year 2025, average freight rates and volume to be lower year-over-year.
Previous report
In addition to the outlook trends noted above, the Company expects uncertainty regarding tariffs and global trade, regulatory measures, the trajectory of the U.S. economy and other geopolitical factors to continue.

For the third quarter 2025, the Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income to be meaningfully lower than the level achieved in the same period last year primarily due to lower year-over-year freight rates and volume in the China service compared to the elevated demand levels achieved in the third quarter last year and the Company’s expectation of a muted peak season this year.
