A significant performance improvement in the Logistics Division is a testament to our dedicated efforts to strengthen the underlying business through our Boost Project turnaround model. In parallel, we continued to strengthen our financial solidity on the back of strong cash flow generation. Our overall earnings level remains nonetheless unsatisfactory. Our two business units operating out of Türkiye - Mediterranean and TES - face significant market challenges that set their situation apart from the rest of the network. These challenges continue to weigh considerably on the Group result. We are addressing these challenges by applying our Boost Project turnaround model for TES and by continued adaptation of Mediterranean’s capacity and its pricing model. Strong Logistics performance In Q3, our Logistics Division delivered a strong performance improvement as EBIT increased by DKK 86m to DKK 108m. Excluding TES, this corresponds to a year-to-date return on invested capital of 8%. This improvement reflects the skills and dedication of people across the Division and that our Boost Project turnaround model is effective. Substantial improvement opportunities still remain in the Division. Strengthening execution capabilities The ongoing strategy review will define our future strategic priorities and capital deployment to concentrate our resources on improving value creation for all our stakeholders – short-term and long-term. We are undertaking a multi-year transformation that requires disciplined execution and a strong focus on delivering superior financial results. To strengthen our transformation capabilities and ensure clear ownership of this agenda, we are expanding the Executive Management Team with a Chief Transformation Officer, who will lead strategy execution and drive the transformation across DFDS. Outlook While the EBIT outlook is unchanged, the revenue growth expectation is increased to 4-5% from previously 3-5%. The expectation for the Adjusted free cash flow is increased to DKK 800-1,000m from previously around DKK 500m. The outlook assumptions are detailed in the attached report.
