HONOLULU, Nov. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Matson, Inc. ("Matson" or the "Company") (NYSE: MATX), a leading U.S. carrier in the Pacific, today reported net income of $134.7 million, or $4.24 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $199.1 million, or $5.89 per diluted share. Consolidated revenue for the third quarter 2025 was $880.1 million compared with $962.0 million for the third quarter 2024.

Matt Cox, Matson's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Matson's Ocean Transportation and Logistics business segments performed well in a difficult environment marked by continued uncertainty and volatility arising from tariffs and global trade. In Ocean Transportation, our operating income was lower year-over-year primarily due to lower year-over-year freight rates and container volume in our China service. The Transpacific tradelane experienced a muted peak season compared to the elevated demand levels last year due to businesses advancing cargo in the late second quarter and early third quarter ahead of U.S. tariff deadlines, which led to lower third quarter demand for our expedited services."

Mr. Cox added, "In our domestic tradelanes, we saw higher year-over-year volume in Hawaii and Alaska and lower year-over-year volume in Guam. In Logistics, our operating income was lower year-over-year primarily due to lower contributions from freight forwarding, transportation brokerage, and supply chain management."

"We expect Ocean Transportation operating income in the fourth quarter 2025 to be lower than the level achieved in the prior year due to lower year-over-year freight rates and volume in our China service. In the fourth quarter 2025, we expect many of our China service customers to be cautious on inventory levels and work through previously purchased inventory; however, we expect a more stable trading environment for our customers in the fourth quarter as a result of a reduction in uncertainty regarding tariffs, port entry fees, global trade, and other geopolitical factors due to the trade and economic deal between the U.S. and China announced on October 30^th. For Logistics, we expect operating income in the fourth quarter 2025 to be modestly lower than the level achieved last year. As a result, we now expect Matson's consolidated fourth quarter 2025 operating income to be approximately 30 percent lower than the $147.5 million achieved in the fourth quarter 2024."

Third Quarter 2025 Discussion and Outlook for 2025

Ocean Transportation: The Company's container volume in the Hawaii service in the third quarter 2025 was 0.3 percent higher year-over-year. The Hawaii economy is softening as slowing tourism and high inflation and interest rates weigh against stronger construction activity. The Company expects volume in full year 2025 to be comparable to the level achieved in 2024, reflecting modest economic growth in Hawaii and stable market share.

In China, the Company's container volume in the third quarter 2025 decreased 12.8 percent year-over-year primarily due to the difficult environment marked by continued uncertainty and volatility arising from tariffs and global trade. Freight rates in the third quarter 2025 were lower than the levels achieved in the same period last year. The Transpacific tradelane experienced a muted peak season compared to the elevated demand levels last year due to businesses advancing cargo in the late second quarter and early third quarter ahead of U.S. tariff deadlines, which led to lower third quarter demand for the Company's expedited services. For the fourth quarter 2025, the Company expects lower year-over-year freight rates and volume in its China service as the Company expects many of its China service customers to be cautious on inventory levels and work through previously purchased inventory; however, the Company expects a more stable trading environment for customers in the fourth quarter 2025 as a result of a reduction in uncertainty regarding tariffs, port entry fees, global trade, and other geopolitical factors due to the trade and economic deal between the U.S. and China announced on October 30^th. The Company expects volume in full year 2025 to be lower than the level achieved last year.

In Guam, the Company's container volume in the third quarter 2025 decreased 4.2 percent year-over-year due to lower general demand. In the near term, the Company expects Guam's economy to moderate reflecting a challenging tourism environment. For full year 2025, the Company expects volume to be modestly lower than the level achieved last year.

In Alaska, the Company's container volume for the third quarter 2025 increased 4.1 percent year-over-year. The increase was primarily due to one additional northbound sailing compared to the year ago period and higher AAX volume. In the near term, the Company expects continued economic growth in Alaska supported by a low unemployment rate, jobs growth and continued oil and gas exploration and production activity. For full year 2025, the Company expects volume to be modestly higher than the level achieved last year.

The contribution in the third quarter 2025 from the Company's SSAT joint venture investment was $9.3 million, or $2.4 million higher than third quarter 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher lift revenue. For full year 2025, the Company expects the contribution from SSAT to be higher than the $17.4 million achieved last year without taking into account the $18.4 million impairment charge recorded by SSAT during the fourth quarter 2024.

The Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income for the fourth quarter 2025 to be lower than the level achieved in the prior year. The outlook for Ocean Transportation operating income in the fourth quarter 2025 includes approximately $6.4 million in port entry fees paid quarter-to-date.

Logistics: In the third quarter 2025, operating income for the Company's Logistics segment was $13.6 million, or $1.8 million lower compared to the level achieved in the third quarter 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower contributions from freight forwarding, transportation brokerage, and supply chain management. For the fourth quarter 2025, the Company expects Logistics operating income to be modestly lower than the $10.1 million achieved in the fourth quarter 2024.

Consolidated Operating Income: For the fourth quarter 2025, the Company expects consolidated operating income to be approximately 30 percent lower than the $147.5 million achieved in the fourth quarter 2024. 

Depreciation and Amortization: For full year 2025, the Company expects depreciation and amortization expense to be approximately $196 million, inclusive of dry-docking amortization of approximately $28 million.

Interest Income: The Company expects interest income for the full year 2025 to be approximately $32 million.

Interest Expense: The Company expects interest expense for the full year 2025 to be approximately $7 million.

Other Income (Expense): The Company expects full year 2025 other income (expense) to be approximately $9 million in income, which is attributable to the amortization of certain components of net periodic benefit costs or gains related to the Company's pension and post-retirement plans.

Income Taxes: In the third quarter 2025, the Company's effective tax rate was 20.2 percent. For the full year 2025, the Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 22.0 percent.

Capital and Vessel Dry-docking Expenditures: For the third quarter 2025, the Company made capital expenditure payments excluding new vessel construction expenditures of $45.6 million, new vessel construction expenditures (including capitalized interest and owner's items) of $37.6 million, and dry-docking payments of $14.2 million. For the full year 2025, the Company expects to make other capital expenditure payments, including maintenance capital expenditures, of approximately $130 million, new vessel construction expenditures (including capitalized interest and owner's items) of approximately $248 million, and dry-docking payments of approximately $45 million.

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (including deferred dry- docking amortization). EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (as determined in accordance with GAAP), as an indicator of our operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of liquidity. Our calculation of EBITDA may not be  comparable to EBITDA as calculated by other companies, nor is this calculation identical to the EBITDA used by our lenders to determine financial covenant compliance.
