Description: HLAG Hapag Lloyd December 19, 2025

Hapag-Lloyd AG (XETRA:HLAG) is a global liner shipping operator that runs both a Liner Shipping segment and a Terminal & Infrastructure segment. Its fleet of 299 vessels (≈2.3 million TEU capacity as of 31 Dec 2024) transports dry, special, dangerous, coffee, and refrigerated cargo, and the company also offers inland container services via truck and rail, as well as digital trade solutions such as bilateral EDI, API portals, and the WAVE BL electronic bill of lading service.

Key industry drivers that materially affect HLAG include the Asia-Europe freight rate cycle (tracked by the Shanghai Containerized Freight Index, which has averaged a 15 % YoY increase in the past 12 months), global container demand growth of roughly 4 % YoY driven by e-commerce and reshoring trends, and bunker fuel price volatility, which currently pushes the companys adjusted EBITDA margin to about 9 % (Q3 2024). HLAG is also pursuing a fleet renewal program, targeting an average vessel age of 7 years by 2027 to improve fuel efficiency and meet IMO 2023 emission standards.
