ZIM Faces Downside Risk Amid Declining Freight Rates and Flat Volume GrowthWe lift our 2025E EBITDA by 4% to $2.18bn and our EBIT to $0.9bn, both the top end of guidance, as we raise our 3Q realised freight rate. We lower our PO to $13.2 (from $14.8) despite our higher estimates, as we apply a lower P/BV (price/book value) of 0.4x (from 0.45x) amid a worse rates and volume outlook for FY26. With 6% potential downside to our PO, we reiterate our Underperform.

Citigroup Issues Sell Rating on ZIM Amid Uncertain MBO Prospects and Bearish Market SentimentWe assign a High Risk rating to ZIM shares on account of its higher exposure to spot volumes (c.75%) compared to the industry average (c.45%) – we see such a high exposure to spot volumes as likely resulting in increased earnings and share price volatility. Industry- and company-specific downside risks that could prevent ZIM from achieving our target price include: red sea disruptions could last longer than we anticipated and continue to absorb supply; container shipping profits have historically been volatile, reflecting the volume and pattern of trade; freight rates that are acutely sensitive to supply imbalances and to market share-driven strategies of competitors; and the volatility in bunker costs.
