The German container-shipping line closed the 2005 business year with an upbeat result before taxes of EUR 47,4 million, putting it firmly on course for profit, despite pressure on rates and a disproportionate rise in operating costs.
Last year the specialist Europe-Asia carrier, with 17 regular services and a capacity of 770,400 TEUs (up 2.2%), saw its handling volumes rise by 4.7% and recorded a total result before taxes of EUR 47,4 million.
