“I am pleased to announce another good quarter for CEVA" says Xavier Urbain, CEO of CEVA. “We have been able to offset ongoing market volatility in air and ocean freight.

Freight Management

n Q3, Freight Management maintained volume growth for its air product at 11.8% versus prior year. Market volatility in airfreight rates continues, notably on routes ex-Asia. Volume planning and pricing measures have enabled us to mitigate that pressure to a large extent.

Ocean freight saw an organic growth of 2.8% in the quarter.

Our excellence program delivered cost and quality improvements, supporting stable yields.

Freight management EBITDA in Q3 was $26 million, down $1 million year-over-year as a result of margins pressure from rates.

Contract Logistics

Revenues are up 1.7% in Q3 in constant currency in spite of less trading days in the quarter and the termination of certain contracts. We had a number of new business wins notably in the consumer & retail, e-commerce and industrial sectors.

Contract Logistics EBITDA was $43 million in Q3, up $5 million YoY in constant currency, a strengthening of the margin by 50 bps. This positive result is driven by the focus on productivity improvement on key contracts through the Excellence Program and the portfolio review.
