CMA CGM 4Q16 - More than staying afloat

CMA CGM, the third largest shipping carrier, held a conference call today to present a strong set of 4Q16 results. Those underline a focus on profitability through disciplined pricing instead of hunting market shares, cost base improvements as well as a degree of NOL synergies. In that context, on a standalone basis, volumes abandoned 5.4%, confirming the strategy of carefully selecting transported freight which began last quarter. Revenue decrease was even stronger at -7.9% to $3,290m as freight rates remained below end of 2015 figures despite rebounding at the end of 2016.
