Sustained high fuel prices and global capacity disruptions from the Middle East

are positive for SITC, we believe.

Near term outlook remains constructive in our view.

Major uncertainty is related to the global container shipping cycle - Red Sea

rerouting normalization remains the overhang.

Solid profit growth this year will increase the probability of a special dividend in

4Q26, we think.

SITC reported 1H26 net profit attributable to shareholders of US$676.5mn, up 7%

YoY, and representing 56% of our 2026 full-year estimate of US$1,206mn and 55%

of market consensus of US$1,234mn.

Revenue increased 11% YoY to US$1,842mn, tracking 49% of our 2026 full-year

estimate of US$3,794mn.

Container volume reached 1.97m TEUs in 1H26, up 7.8% YoY (2Q26: +7.9% YoY). The

implied average freight rate changed 11% YoY and 9.5% QoQ to US$839/TEU in

2Q26.

In 1H26, GP rose 10% YoY to US$733mn, and GP margin was 39.8% (1H25: 40.2%);

Operating profit increased 7% YoY to US$682mn with OP margin of 37%, vs. 38.3%

in 1H25.

Dividends: Interim DPS was HK150 cents (US$19 cents), representing a 77% payout

(full year Mse 70%).
