Moby’s EBITDA Shows Encouraging Positive Trend in Q1

Moby Group has published an interesting Q1 report with some positive trends, which show the company is on the path of recovery.

Some figures in million €

  • Revenues 102.2 (89.2 in Q1, 2018)
  • EBITDA recurring 20.2 (-15.6 in Q1, 2018)
  • Operating Profit -2.3 (-30.1 in Q1, 2018)
  • Net Result -15.0 (-40.6 in Q1, 2018)

The positive EBITDA trend is influenced by an increase of Revenue due to a positive performance in freight transport (€8.5m) and due to the capital gain obtained by the subsidiary CIN, consequently the sales of the ferries PUSCHMANN and AURELIA (€15m).

Interesting is also to follow the issues with the Italian Antitrust Authority. The Regional Administrative court of Lazio has issued a final judgment on the appeal finding that a significant part of the conduct alleged by the Italian Antitrust Authority had not been correctly verified.

The company also mentions in the report the two new Chinese-built vessels, which are expected in 2020 and 2021.

DFDS Q1 On Track Strong Performance in North Sea

By | 2019 newsletter week 19 | No Comments

In Q1, revenue increased 11% to DKK 3.9bn driven by the expansion in the Mediterranean and stockpiling in UK ahead of the initial Brexit-date end of March. The Easter timing difference vs 2018 lowered passenger revenue.

EBITDA before special items increased 13% to DKK 677m driven by the Mediterranean expansion and strong performance in North Sea.

Baltic Sea’s result was lowered by one-off additional operating costs as capacity was maintained during dockings, one of which was extended. In addition, the Easter timing difference reduced passenger earnings compared to Q1 2018, especially in the Passenger business unit.

Logistics continued to improve performance in UK & Ireland. In Sweden and Belgium earnings were lower as Q1 2018 included peak earnings from a large contract.

The first in a series of six new freight ferries was delivered in February and successfully deployed in March between Istanbul and Trieste.

2019 EBITDA outlook unchanged: DKK 3.8-4.0bn (2018: DKK 3.6bn, restated)

Key figures Q1 2019

  • +11% Revenue: DKK 3.9bn (3.5)
  • +13% EBITDA: DKK 677m (597)
  • -22.3% Profit before tax DKK 159m (204)

Outlook 2019 Unchanged

  • 10-12% revenue growth
  • EBITDA-range of DKK 3.8-4.0bn (2018: DKK 3.6bn)

Figures 2018:

-9% ferry crossings

-7% passengers = 965,000 (1,040,000)

  • After three consecutive years of profitability, the Group and the Parent company recorded losses after taxes. Extraordinary provisions as well as financing and investing results had a negative effect on net results and equity, which turned negative.
  • Turnover: +2.1% Group / +2.8% Parent company
  • Gross profit: +0.6% Group / -2.1% Parent Company
  • EBITDA: +14% Group / +12.1% Parent Company
