Continued strong demand in the container market, particularly in the Far East, and a recent sustained increase in spot market rates means that A.P. Møller – Mærsk A/S (Maersk) upgrades its guidance for full year 2026. For the full year, Maersk now expects:
- Underlying EBITDA of USD 8-10bn (previously USD 4.5-7.0bn)
- Underlying EBIT of USD 2-4bn (previously USD -1.5-1.0bn)
- Free cash flow of at least USD -1.5bn (previously at least USD -3bn)
This is based on a volume growth outlook for the global container market of about 4% (previously 2-4%) for full-year 2026.

Maersk will publish its full Q2 interim results on 13 August 2026
