Description: HAL HAL Trust October 31, 2025
HAL Trust (AS:HAL) is a Rotterdam-based conglomerate operating across Europe, North America, and Asia through four segments-Unquoted, Quoted Interests, Real Estate, and Liquid Portfolio. Its portfolio spans maritime services (including emergency response and salvage), construction and infrastructure (composite panels, residential and utility projects, offshore floating facilities), medical and optical products, financial services, and media assets such as BNR Nieuwsradio and Het Financieele Dagblad. Founded in 1873, the group leverages a diversified business model that combines traditional industrial activities with high-growth services like GHG-reduction projects and mortgage funding.
Key metrics that analysts watch include HAL’s total revenue of €2.1 bn in FY 2023, a 5 % YoY increase driven primarily by a rebound in shipping volumes and construction orders, and an EBITDA margin of roughly 9 % reflecting the mix of capital-intensive assets and higher-margin financial services. The company’s exposure to the global shipping cycle (linked to freight rates and vessel utilization) and to European construction demand (sensitive to interest-rate trends and fiscal stimulus) are the dominant economic drivers of its earnings outlook.
