The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings has declined 2.25% to $12.16 per share over the past 60 days. ZIM Integrated Shipping, which went public in February 2021, outpaced on earnings in each of the last four quarters, the average being 19.35%.
Against this backdrop, let’s look at the factors that might have shaped ZIM Integrated Shipping’s June-quarter performance.
We expect ZIM Integrated Shipping’s bottom-line performance in the to-be-reported quarter to have been hit by escalated voyage operating expenses, mainly due to increased fuel costs.
Supply-chain disruptions might have dented performance due to lower shipments. Slowdown in freight traffic is also likely to have hurt second-quarter performance.
On a brighter note, the positive sentiment surrounding the containership market is a huge positive for ZIM Integrated Shipping and might have aided its top line in the soon-to-be-reported quarter.
