DP World posted strong financial and operational results for the first half of 2025, with revenue climbing 20.4% year-on-year to $11.24 billion, supported by robust performances in its Ports & Terminals segment and recent acquisitions.
Adjusted EBITDA rose 21.4% to $3.03 billion, while container volumes reached 45.4 million TEU across its global portfolio, up 5.6% on a like-for-like basis.
Across terminals where DP World has operational control, volumes increased 7.5% to 27.4 million TEU. The company’s integrated global trade platform and critical infrastructure footprint helped mitigate the impact of ongoing geopolitical tensions, Red Sea route closures, and uncertainty around global trade tariffs.
We are pleased to report strong first-half results, with both revenue and EBITDA growing by over 20%,
said DP World Group Chairman and CEO Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.
Despite significant disruption across the industry, our strategy of delivering integrated end-to-end solutions and operating in key markets has allowed us to continue supporting cargo owners and delivering results.
Capital expenditure during the first half of 2025 totaled $1.08 billion, with a full-year target of $2.5 billion. Investments are focused on expansion projects at Jebel Ali Port, Drydocks World, Tuna Tekra in India, London Gateway in the UK, and Dakar in Senegal, alongside growth in DP World Logistics and P&O Maritime Logistics. These initiatives aim to boost terminal capacity, supply chain integration, and digital capabilities for long-term resilience.
DP World’s Unifeeder network continues to strengthen its position in multimodal transport solutions, providing reliable connectivity for global shipping lines and cargo owners amid supply chain disruptions. The company’s freight forwarding platform now operates across approximately 300 locations, covering over 90% of global trade lanes.
