Current report
In China, the Company’s container volume in the fourth quarter 2025 decreased 7.2 percent year-over-year. The Company saw higher than expected freight rates and volume driven by strong e-commerce and e-goods demand. The Company benefited from strong freight demand in its key customer segments as well as a more stable trading environment in the Transpacific tradelane as a result of the U.S.-China trade and economic deal announced on October 30, 2025, which reduced uncertainty regarding tariffs, port entry fees, global trade and other geopolitical factors. In the first quarter 2026, the Company expects lower volume compared to the prior year period. The Company expects volume in full year 2026 to be modestly higher than the level achieved in 2025 based on our expectations of continued solid U.S. consumer demand and a stable trading environment in the Transpacific tradelane.
Current report
Based on the outlook trends noted above, the Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income for the first quarter 2026 to be approximately $50 million.

For 2026 compared to 2025, the Company also expects to see a more normal operating income seasonality pattern with second and third quarters being the strongest relative to the first and fourth quarters.
Current report
Consolidated Operating Income: For the first quarter 2026, the Company expects consolidated operating income to be lower than the $82.1 million achieved in the first quarter 2025.

Previous report
In China, the Company achieved significantly higher freight rates in the fourth quarter 2024 compared to the year ago period. The Company’s container volume in the fourth quarter 2024 also increased 7.2 percent year-over-year due to seasonally stronger freight demand. The elevated freight rates in the fourth quarter 2024 were supported by a resilient U.S. economy and a stable consumer demand environment coupled with tighter supply chain conditions. The Company expects elevated freight rates to continue into the first quarter 2025. Beyond the first quarter, the Company expects freight rates will largely be driven by the timing of trade flow normalization in the Red Sea, other geopolitical factors, supply chain activity and the trajectory of the U.S. economy. With respect to the Red Sea, assuming trade conditions normalize by the middle of the year, the Company expects freight rates to moderate in the second half of the year. However, if the Red Sea remains disrupted through year end, the Company expects freight rates to remain elevated throughout the year.
Previous report
Based on the outlook trends noted above, the Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income for the first quarter 2025 to be meaningfully higher than the $27.6 million achieved in the first quarter 2024. For full year 2025, the Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income to be largely driven by the timing of trade flow normalization in the Red Sea, other geopolitical factors, supply chain activity and the trajectory of the U.S. economy. Assuming trade conditions in the Red Sea normalize by the middle of the year and there are no significant changes from today in the other factors referenced above, the Company expects full year 2025 Ocean Transportation operating income to be moderately lower than the $500.9 million achieved in 2024. However, if trade conditions in the Red Sea remain disrupted through year end and there are no significant changes from today in the other factors noted above, the Company expects full year 2025 Ocean Transportation operating income to approach the level achieved in 2024.

Consolidated Operating Income: For the first quarter 2025, the Company expects consolidated operating income to be meaningfully higher than the $36.9 million achieved in the first quarter 2024. For full year 2025, the Company expects consolidated operating income to be largely driven by the timing of trade flow normalization in the Red Sea, other geopolitical factors, supply chain activity and the trajectory of the U.S. economy. Assuming trade conditions in the Red Sea normalize by the end of the first half of the year and there are no significant changes from today in the other factors referenced above, the Company expects full year 2025 consolidated operating income to be moderately lower than the $551.3 million achieved in 2024. However, if trade conditions in the Red Sea remain disrupted through year end and there are no significant changes from today in the other factors noted above, the Company expects full year 2025 consolidated operating income to approach the level achieved in 2024.
Previous report
Ocean Transportation operating income increased $206.1 million, or 69.9 percent, during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to significantly higher freight rates in China, higher freight rates in the domestic tradelanes, and higher volume in China, partially offset by higher operating costs and general and administrative expenses.

Previous wording
*Ocean Transportation:*The Company’s container volume in the Hawaii service in the fourth quarter 2024 was 1.7 percent lower year-over-year. The decrease was primarily due to lower general demand. Hawaii’s economy is expected to continue to grow slowly supported by modest gains in tourism, a low unemployment rate, and increased construction activity, but partially restrained by continued challenges in population growth and lower discretionary income as a result of high inflation and interest rates. The Company expects volume in 2025 to be comparable to the level achieved in 2024, reflecting modest economic growth in Hawaii and stable market share.
Current wording
*Ocean Transportation:*The Company’s container volume in the Hawaii service in the fourth quarter 2025 was 0.6 percent higher year-over-year primarily due to higher general demand. Hawaii’s economy remains sluggish as softer tourism and ongoing inflationary pressures, including elevated interest rates, more than offset strength in construction activity. The Company expects volume in full year 2026 to be comparable to the level achieved in 2025, reflecting similar economic conditions and stable market share.
Previous wording
In Guam, the Company’s container volume in the fourth quarter 2024 decreased 10.0 percent year-over-year. The decrease was primarily due to lower demand from retail and food and beverage segments.

Previous wording
The loss in the fourth quarter 2024 from the Company’s SSAT joint venture investment was $9.5 million, or $13.6 million lower than the income of $4.1 million in fourth quarter 2023. The decrease was due to a $18.4 million impairment charge related to the write-down of a terminal operating lease asset, partially offset by higher year-over-year lift volume. On an after-tax basis, the impairment charge impacted fourth quarter 2024 net income and diluted EPS by $14.0 million and $0.42 per share, respectively.

Changes in accounts receivable were primarily due to the timing of collections associated with those receivables. Changes in prepaid expenses and other assets were primarily due to a decrease in prepaid income tax receivables at December 31, 2024 due to a refund of $118.6 million related to the Company’s 2021 federal tax return that was received during the year ended December 31, 2024. Changes in accounts payable, accruals and other liabilities were primarily due to the timing of payments associated with those liabilities. Changes in operating lease assets and liabilities, net, were primarily due to new operating leases entered into during the year ended December 31, 2025, offset by lease payments and operating leases that expired during the same year. Deferred dry-docking payments were $49.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $30.2 million in the prior year. The increase in deferred dry-docking payments was due to an increase in vessel drydock related activities during the year ended December 31, 2025. Changes in other long-term liabilities primarily related to payments of pension and post-retirement liabilities, and multi-employer liabilities.

*Long-lived Assets and Finite-lived Intangible Assets:*Long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets are grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available. In evaluating for impairment, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows generated by each of these asset groups are compared with the carrying value recorded for each asset group to determine if its carrying value is recoverable. If this review determines that the amount recorded will not be recovered, the amount recorded for the asset group is reduced to its estimated fair value. These asset impairment analyses are highly subjective because they require management to make assumptions and apply considerable judgments to, among other things, estimates of the timing and amount of future cash flows, expected useful lives of the assets, potential impact of future events, including changes in economic conditions and operating performance, and future costs

Indefinite-life Intangible Assets and Goodwill: The Company’s intangible assets include goodwill and a trade name, and are grouped at the lowest level reporting unit for which identifiable cash flows are available. In estimating the fair value of a reporting unit, the Company uses a combination of a discounted cash flow model and fair value based on market multiples of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). The discounted cash flow approach requires the Company to use a number of assumptions, including market factors specific to the business, the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows generated by the business over an extended period of time, long-term growth rates for the business, and a discount rate that considers the risks related to the amount and timing of the cash flows. Although the assumptions used by the Company in its discounted cash flow model are consistent with the assumptions the Company used to generate its internal strategic plans and forecasts, significant judgment is required to estimate the amount and timing of future cash flows from the reporting unit and the risk of achieving those cash flows. When using market multiples of EBITDA, the Company makes judgments about the comparability of multiples in closed and proposed transactions. Accordingly, changes in assumptions and estimates, including, but not limited to, changes driven by external factors, such as industry and economic trends, and those driven by internal factors, such as changes in the Company’s business strategy and its internal forecasts, could have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or its future operating results. The Company has evaluated its indefinite-life intangible assets and goodwill for impairment and determined that there was no impairment for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.

When estimating its reserves for retained risks and related liabilities, the Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims experience, demographic factors, current trends, and analyses provided by independent third parties. Periodically, management reviews its assumptions and estimates used to determine the adequacy of the Company’s reserves for retained risks and other related liabilities. The Company’s retained risks and other related liabilities contain uncertainties because management is required to apply judgment and make long-term assumptions to estimate the ultimate cost to settle reported claims, and of claims incurred but not reported, as of the balance sheet date. Insurance related liabilities were $52.8 million and $41.3 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company’s estimate of insurance related liabilities could change if management uses different assumptions or if different conditions occur in future periods, however the Company does not expect any such change would have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Pension and Post-Retirement Plans: The estimation of the Company’s pension and post-retirement benefit expenses and liabilities requires the Company to make various assumptions. These assumptions include factors such as discount rates, expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets, salary growth, health care cost trend rates, inflation, retirement rates, mortality rates and expected contributions. Actual results that differ from the assumptions made could materially affect the Company’s financial condition or its future operating results. The effects of changing assumptions are included in unamortized net gains and losses, which directly affect accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Additionally, these unamortized gains and losses are amortized and reclassified to income (loss) over future periods.
