SECOND QUARTER 2026 DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK FOR 2026

Ocean Transportation:

The Company’s container volume in the Hawaii service in the first quarter 2026 was 5.6 percent lower year-over-year primarily due to lower general demand and the dry-docking of a competitor’s vessel in the year ago period.

Hawaii’s economy is expected to experience modest growth supported by construction activity, while tourism remains soft and inflationary pressures persist.

The Company expects volume in full year 2026 to be comparable to the level achieved in 2025, reflecting similar economic conditions and stable market share.

In the China service, the Company’s container volume in the first quarter 2026 decreased 9.5 percent year-over-year primarily due to lower general demand from a more traditional Lunar New Year freight cycle.

The Company saw higher than expected freight demand post-Lunar New Year and the uptick in freight demand has continued to build in the second quarter as demand strengthens and volume returns to a more traditional seasonal pattern.

The Company also

expects this demand strength to continue through peak season.

In the second quarter 2026, the Company expects higher volume compared to the prior year period, which included a market decline in Transpacific demand due to the tariffs imposed in April 2025.

The Company expects volume in full year 2026 to be moderately higher than the level achieved in 2025 based on our expectations of continued solid U.S.

The Company expects its China service to be at or near capacity through peak season.

For the fourth quarter 2026 , the Company expects demand to reflect a more traditional seasonality pattern compared to the elevated period of freight demand experienced in the Transpacific market in the fourth quarter 2025 following the U.S.-China trade and economic agreement announced on October 30, 2025.

As such, the Company expects volume in full year 2026 to be higher than the level achieved in 2025 based on the Company’s expectations of continued solid U.S.
