  2. Are we out of the storm yet?

  3. What Just Happened? Great Recession had the greatest impact on trade volume since the start of containerization Asia Financial Crisis 9/11 Great Recession

  4. Vessel Impact Trend Record # of idle ships in ’09 – Largest ships have returned to service

  5. Port Impact Trend Alphaliner

  6. Carrier Earnings Impact • ‘09 Carriers posted losses of over us$15 bil. • ‘10 Carriers estimated profits of approx us$13 bil. • Faster recovery than forecasted but still - $2 bil.

  7. Lessons Learned • Rate volatility encountered in 2009-2010 was not good for carriers or customers • Forecasting will play an increasingly important role in the customer – carrier relationship • Carriers must manage vessel schedules much more dynamically to align supply with demand • Surprisingly there were no carrier casualties during this recent downturn • All stakeholders in the supply chain were impacted (ship owners, ship operators, rail, truck, terminals, labor, BCO, NVO, shippers and consignees) • Tested partnerships on both sides under duress

  8. Current Market Environment • Global trade forecasted to grow 7-8% with a 9.5% projected increase in capacity in 2011 supply closely aligned with demand • A year of stronger earnings has invited a number of smaller new entrants to the carrier market • Carriers have not announced Winter schedules to date and have been reluctant to withdraw capacity prior to the pre Lunar New Year surge • Adequate supply of equipment and vessel space for both imports and exports for current demand • New build vessel orders have increased as carriers try to secure any remaining discounts (60% of new orders larger than 13,000 TEUs)

  9. Next Generation Container Ship What is the right size vessel? Fuel Cost vs. Unit Cost 20,250 TEU Ultra Large Container Ship (ULCS) LOA: 1,443 feet Beam: 194 feet 220,000 Tons 21 knots 8 above deck 11 below 2 Prop

  10. Bunker – On the Rise (Again) Fuel price volatility will continue = shared risk thru floating bunker surcharges

  11. Emerging Trends in 2011 • Expect to see stable but more moderate growth of 7-8% during the next few years • Terminal, rail and roadway infrastructure concerns that were regular concerns will begin to resurface • Expect to see carriers announcing void sailings and winter schedules in February/March • Lunar New Year Impact will effect equipment availability for exports in late Feb/early March • Weak dollar continues to promote strong export market – anticipate equipment & space issues to resurface in the U.S. by April • Australian flooding has wiped out an estimated 60% of agricultural exports increasing demand for US agri exports to Asia

  12. Emerging Trends in 2011 • Fuel volatility will continue – floating bunker will remain a shared variable cost exposure • More distribution center growth on USEC due to rising fuel costs & last mile of supply chain & in preparation for Panama Canal expansion in 2014 • Escalating costs as market rebounds (raw materials, manufacturing costs & transportation costs) • Increased interest from customers for multi-year contracts – longer term partnerships & stability • Carriers exiting the chassis business & transferring control/ownership to truckers and pool managers • Carrier alliance churn and expansion as larger new build vessels are introduced to the market • Hub & spoke deployments = more transshipments • Reduced sailing frequency options • Extended port times = pressure on terminals & infrastructure

  13. Emerging Trends in 2011 • Increased regulatory monitoring & legislation that could begin to change customer/carrier relationships • Shipping Act - carrier anti-trust immunity • Contracts with increased service definition • FMC playing increased role for mutual contract compliance • Increased pressure for a national transportation policy that incorporates & synchronizes all modes across city and state boundaries • Origin sourcing diversification • PRC inland • Non – PRC (less dependency/risk with China) • Terminal utilization factors increasing with challenges to keep pace with mid-term volume growth forecasts • Improved carrier / customer relationships and reduced strain as market stability is restored

  14. What Lies Ahead? I believe we will return to calm seas & smoother sailing in 2011 With the impact of “The Great Recession” seemingly behind us, what is the new challenge awaiting the industry? www.hmm21.com
