Wall Street analysts estimate an EPS of $1.89 and revenue of approximately $1.84 billion for ZIM’s first quarter of 2025.
The company’s EPS estimate has been adjusted downward by 8.3% to $1.89, yet it indicates a significant year-over-year increase of 152%.
ZIM’s quarterly revenue is projected to reach $1.73 billion, marking an 11% increase compared to the previous year.
ZIM Integrated Shipping Services (NYSE:ZIM) is a global shipping company known for its container shipping services. As it prepares to release its quarterly earnings on May 19, 2025, Wall Street analysts estimate an earnings per share (EPS) of $1.89 and revenue of approximately $1.84 billion. The company operates in a highly competitive industry, facing rivals like Maersk and MSC.
The EPS estimate for ZIM’s first quarter of 2025 has been adjusted downward by 8.3% to $1.89 over the past 60 days. Despite this revision, the projected EPS still indicates a significant year-over-year increase of 152%. This suggests that ZIM is expected to perform better than the same period last year, reflecting improved profitability.
Historically, ZIM has exceeded EPS estimates in three of the last four quarters, with an average earnings surprise of 19.3%. This track record of surpassing expectations could influence investor sentiment positively. However, the company’s high volatility, potential catalysts like delayed tariffs, and a manufacturing rebound in Asia could impact its performance ahead of earnings.
ZIM’s financial metrics reveal a low valuation, with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of approximately 1.01 and a price-to-sales ratio of about 0.26. These figures suggest that the market values ZIM’s earnings and sales modestly. The company’s debt-to-equity ratio of about 1.49 indicates a higher level of debt compared to equity, which could pose risks if not managed carefully.
