2 The number of shares used to calculate the diluted earnings per share is 120,477,221. The number of outstanding shares as of March 31, 2026 was 120,519,658.
Eli Glickman, ZIM President & CEO, stated, “Our first quarter results were broadly in line with our
expectations, reflecting a softer freight rate environment, coupled with weaker demand. Importantly, as the proposed transaction with Hapag-Lloyd moves forward and we continue to navigate the ongoing hostilities affecting Israel and the Middle East,
ZIM remains firmly focused on service reliability and disciplined execution. We appreciate the strong support of our valued customers, who have remained engaged and constructive throughout this period.”
Mr. Glickman added, “The conflict in the Persian Gulf has sparked a sharp increase and significant volatility in bunkering costs. While the impact on first quarter results was minimal, we expect a more meaningful
effect in the second quarter, before our actions to offset these costs, including increased freight rates and bunker-specific surcharges, begin to take hold. It is also important to note that ZIM is likely to see incremental benefits from our early
adoption of LNG technology and long-term agreements with Shell securing LNG supply on competitive terms. With a fleet comprised of approximately 40% LNG-powered capacity, ZIM not only offers shippers a pathway to significantly reduced carbon
emissions but maintains a fuel-efficient and cost-effective fleet.”
“Although market fundamentals remain challenging across
ZIM’s main trade lanes, we have recently observed a positive change in the trend on the Transpacific trade with freight rates strengthening alongside demand. If this momentum continues, we expect it to support our financial performance,
particularly in the second half of the year. In parallel, we completed annual contract negotiations, which went into effect on May 1, maintaining similar contracted volumes to last year with approximately 65% of our Transpacific volume exposed
to spot rates. This approach underpins our nimble commercial strategy and allows us to stay agile and proactive in deploying capacity as demand patterns shift. Moreover, initiatives such as ZIM on Air, a newly launched
service that provides combined sea and air shipping from Asia to the U.S and Europe, underscore our innovative spirit and ability to deliver differentiated solutions. We continue to receive very positive feedback from both existing and new
customers who rely on ZIM to meet their evolving shipping needs.”
Mr. Glickman concluded, “Pending completion of the proposed transaction with Hapag-Lloyd, which remains subject to approvals by various regulatory
authorities including the State of Israel, our commitment to operational excellence and customer service remains unchanged. The strength of our organization begins with our people, and I thank the exceptional ZIM team for its dedication and service
especially during this turbulent time. With our improved cost base and modernized fleet, we believe we have built a business that is well positioned to weather near-term headwinds and support long-term profitable growth.”

Financial and Operating Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2026
Total revenues were $1.40 billion for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $2.01 billion for the first quarter of 2025, mainly driven by a decrease in
freight rates, as well as in carried volume.
ZIM carried 866 thousand TEUs in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 944 thousand TEUs in the first quarter of 2025. The average freight rate per TEU was $1,310 for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $1,776 for

- 3 -
Operating loss (EBIT) for the first quarter of 2026 was $18 million, compared to operating income of $464 million for the first quarter of 2025. The
decrease was driven primarily by the above-mentioned decrease in revenues.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $86 million, compared to net income of $296 million for the first quarter of 2025, driven primarily by the
above-mentioned decrease in revenues, partially offset by the change in income taxes.

for the first quarter of 2026, compared to Adjusted EBIT of $463 million for the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT margins for the first quarter of 2026 were 22% and 0%, respectively. This compares to 39% and 23% for the first

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures
The Company presents non-IFRS measures as additional performance measures as the Company believes that it enables the comparison of operating performance
between periods on a consistent basis. These measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for operating income, any other performance measures, or cash flow data, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as measures of
profitability or liquidity. Please note that Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account debt service requirements or other commitments, as well as capital expenditures, and therefore, does not necessarily indicate the amounts that may be available
for the Company's use. In addition, the non-IFRS financial measures presented by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way these measures are calculated.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure which we define as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude financial
expenses (income), net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization in order to reach EBITDA, and further adjusted, as applicable, to exclude impairment of assets (or the reversal of which), capital gains (losses) beyond the ordinary course of
business, expenses related to legal contingencies and acquisition related expenses (compensation costs and professional fees).
Adjusted EBIT is a non-IFRS financial measure which we define as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude financial
expenses (income), net and income taxes, in order to reach our results from operating activities, or EBIT, and further adjusted, as applicable, to exclude impairment of assets (or the reversal of which), capital gains (losses) beyond the ordinary
course of business, expenses related to legal contingencies and acquisition related expenses (compensation costs and professional fees).
- 7 -
Free cash flow is a non-IFRS financial measure which we define as net cash generated from operating activities
minus capital expenditures, net.
Net debt is a non-IFRS financial measure which we define as face value of short- and long-term debt, minus cash and
cash equivalents, bank deposits and other investment instruments. We refer to this measure as net cash when cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and other investment instruments exceed the face value of short- and long-term debt.
Net leverage ratio is a non-IFRS financial measure which we define as net debt (see above) divided by Adjusted
EBITDA for the last twelve-month period. When our net debt is less than zero, we report the net leverage ratio as zero.
See the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA and net cash generated from operating activities to free cash flow in the tables
provided below.
