Investing.com -- Shares of Kuehne und Nagel International AG (SWX:KNIN) tumbled by 3.5% as the company issued EBIT guidance for 2025 that fell short of consensus estimates. The logistics giant forecasted an EBIT range of CHF1.5-1.75 billion, which is approximately 3% below the midpoint of market expectations.
This announcement was part of a broader financial outlook that included a projected gradual decline in gross profit yields in its Air & Sea business divisions. The company’s financial projections, which also encompass a growth aspiration to outpace GDP by 1.5 times, contrast with consensus expectations of a 4% per annum EBIT growth, or 13% in the period from 2025 to 2028.
Kuehne und Nagel’s aspirations indicate a more conservative growth rate than anticipated by analysts. Additionally, the firm aims for a medium-term conversion rate of 35% in its Air & Sea segments, maintaining a rate of 35% in 2024 and a slight increase to 36% in 2025.
Despite the lower-than-expected EBIT guidance, Kuehne und Nagel maintains a commitment to returning value to shareholders, with an 80% payout ratio that implies a dividend yield between 3.3% to 3.9% in 2025.
