Core Business Performance
1. In logistics field:
In the container manufacturing business, during the Year, despite negative supply chain factors such as U.S. tariff policies and geopolitical conflicts, global merchandise trade demonstrated strong resilience. Intra-regional trade, Asia-Europe routes and emerging market routes became the main drivers of incremental growth. Meanwhile, factors such as detours around the Red Sea, port congestion, environmental requirements in shipping and increasing complexity of trade routes reduced transportation efficiency, structurally boosting underlying demand and pushing the global container fleet into a new structural phase. As a result, overall demand for new containers in 2025 remained at a relatively high level, exceeding the average of the past decade. During the Year, the production and sales volume of the Group’s container manufacturing business declined YoY, in line with overall industry expectations, but the Group maintained its global No.1 position. Accumulated sales volume of dry cargo containers reached 2,224,900 TEUs (2024: 3,433,600 TEUs), representing a YoY decrease of 35.2%. Accumulated sales volume of reefer containers reached 208,200 TEUs (same period last year: 138,600 TEUs), representing a YoY increase of 50.2%. During the Year, the container manufacturing segment recorded revenue of RMB 43.009 billion, net profit of RMB 1.882 billion, and a slight decline in gross profit margin to 13.38%.
