Hutchison Port’s profit grows 25.2% YoY during H1

The container throughput of YICT increased by 12.7% YoY.

Hutchison Port Holdings reported a profit of $162.8m (HK$1b) during the first half of the year, growing 25.2% year on year.  

Revenue and other income for the period stood at $911m (HK$5.6b), 6.3% above YoY.

However, combined container throughput of HIT, COSCO-HIT, and ACT decreased by 3.3% YoY primarily due to lower empty and transshipment cargoes.

The container throughput of YICT increased by 12.7% YoY due to the increase in laden export, inbound empty, and transshipment cargoes.

Average revenue per TEU for Hong Kong was above last year, mainly attributed to higher storage income.

For average revenue per TEU in China, it was below last year due to the higher portion of empty and transshipment cargoes.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
