ReutersMaersk raises 2024 guidance on strong demand, Red Sea disruptions
Maersk now expects its underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation in the range of $7 billion to $9 billion, up from its previous forecast of $4 billion to $6 billion. The company, viewed as a barometer of world trade, said it now sees signs of further port congestions, especially in Asia and the Middle East, and additional increase in container freight rates. The rise in container freight prices and further port congestions are expected to contribute to a stronger financial performance in the second half of 2024, Maersk said.

ANNOUNCEMENT A.P. Møller - Mærsk A/S – Increasing 2024 full-year guidance On the back of continued strong container market demand and the disruption caused by the ongoing crisis in the Red Sea, A.P. Møller - Mærsk A/S (APMM) now also sees signs of further port congestions, especially in Asia and the Middle East, and additional increase in container freight rates. This development is gradually building up and is expected to contribute to a stronger financial performance in the second half of 2024
ReutersMaersk faces significant port congestion in Asia, Mediterranean
As a result of that congestion, the world's second-largest container shipping company, will skip two westbound sailings from China and South Korea that had been planned to depart in early July, it added. The notice from Maersk comes as global supply chains are suffering cascading delays and higher costs due to the Yemen's Houthi militant attacks on commercial vessels near the Suez Canal. Major ocean container carriers like Maersk, MSC and Hapag-Lloyd for safety have rerouted ships to the longer route around Africa.
