Bulls say / Bears say

Maersk raised its 2026 EBITDA forecast to $10.5–12.5bn and EBIT forecast to $4.5–6.5bn after strong Q2 results, citing resilient demand and higher freight rates. It expects container-market volume growth of about 4%. (Reuters)
Maersk’s Ocean volumes grew 9.3% in Q1, ahead of the wider market, while Logistics & Services revenue rose 8.7%. This points to customer and volume momentum beyond a single quarter’s freight-rate performance. (Maersk)
Growth in Maersk’s non-ocean businesses could make earnings less dependent on shipping rates: Q2 Logistics & Services revenue rose 15% and its EBIT margin reached 5.1%, while Terminals revenue increased 11%. (Maersk)
New vessel deliveries are adding industry overcapacity, which can push freight rates down; Maersk cited this pressure in its Q1 outlook, and lower rates helped drive Ocean EBIT to a loss of $192m. That leaves the core business exposed if capacity grows faster than demand. (Maersk)
The Middle East conflict sharply increased Maersk’s fuel bill, adding about $500m a month, and management warned that prolonged high energy costs could feed inflation and weaken consumer demand. Passing costs to customers may not fully protect margins if demand softens. (Reuters)
The strong freight rates supporting current earnings may ease as Maersk gradually returns services to the Suez route, reducing the extra capacity tied up in longer diversions. The company says a $100-per-FFE change in container rates can shift 2026 EBIT by about $0.7bn, underlining the earnings risk. (Reuters, Maersk)
