Hapag-Lloyd to pay €8.20 dividend per share

Hapag-Lloyd’s shareholders approved the payment of a dividend of €8.2 per share in the Annual General Meeting.

“Despite the challenging market environment, we can look back on a very successful 2024,” stated Rolf Habben Jansen, CEO of Hapag-Lloyd.

He continued: “Thanks to the strong demand for container transports and higher spot freight rates, we achieved the third-best operating result in our company’s history. For this reason, our shareholders can once again look forward to receiving a dividend.”



Additionally, the boss of the German shipping company highlighted the progress with Hapag-Lloyd’s Strategy 2030. “We have further expanded our terminal business under the Hanseatic Global Terminals brand, developed our new Gemini network, and launched the largest newbuild program in the history of our company,” said Jansed.

The shareholders also approved the proposal of the Supervisory Board to re-elect Dr. Isabella Niklas to the Supervisory Board as a shareholder representative. She is the Managing Director of the HGV (Hamburger Gesellschaft für Vermögens- und Beteiligungsmanagement mbH), the asset management and holding company of the City of Hamburg, and has been a member of the Supervisory Board of Hapag-Lloyd AG since June 2020.

“I am very pleased to have the trust of our shareholders and with the re-election of Dr. Isabella Niklas as shareholder representative to the Supervisory Board of Hapag-Lloyd,” commented Michael Behrendt, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Hapag-Lloyd. “Her extensive knowledge of our company and the continuity in the composition of the Supervisory Board will enable us to seamlessly maintain the trusting and constructive cooperation of recent years.”
