19 Mar 2026 10:38 CET

Wallenius Wilhelmsen delivered solid financial, commercial and operational
performance in 2025, strengthening its position and contract portfolio despite a
more complex operating environment. The year was characterized by focus on
safety, steady performance in key segments, and work that positions the company
well for the years ahead.

Adjusted EBITDA for 2025 was USD 1,811m with total revenue of USD 5,240m. Net
profit increased to USD 1,104m, up from USD 1,065m in 2024.

“2025 was a solid year, despite an evolving and changing market environment,
supported by robust demand and disciplined execution across our portfolio,” says
CEO & President Lasse Kristoffersen.

Safe and responsible operations
Safety and responsible operations remained a core priority throughout the year.
Wallenius Wilhelmsen reported no serious accidents or incidents in 2025, and
safety performance across shipping and logistics remained stable.

“In a year of high activity and shifting trade patterns, maintaining safe and
reliable operations across sea and land remained our first priority,” says
Kristoffersen.

In 2025, Wallenius Wilhelmsen continued to invest in fleet renewal, operational
efficiencies, lower carbon solutions, and digital infrastructure to support
long-term performance.

Up-cycle used to strengthen the financial foundation
In 2025, the company reduced net debt to around USD 1.7bn, paid USD 892m in
dividends (USD 2.34 per share, up USD 0.59 from 2024), and maintained a strong
liquidity position.

Commercially, Wallenius Wilhelmsen renewed and secured around USD 4.8bn in
multi-year contracts in 2025, contributing to a combined contract backlog of
more than USD 10bn by year-end. Operationally, the network was expanded, and
integration across our company increased.

Looking ahead
Wallenius Wilhelmsen enters 2026 with a strong financial position, a solid book
of business and a clear strategic focus on improving customer value, increasing
competitiveness, and strengthening operational efficiency through
standardization and digitalization.
