BUSINESS REPORT
1 Performance highlights of the Luka Koper Group in January - March 2022
The beginning of 2022 saw an encouraging recovery of the global economy after Covid-19 pandemic, but in March 2022, a new shock resulting from the start of the war in Ukraine, followed in Ukraine. A direct exposure of the Luka Koper Group to Russia and Ukraine is relatively small, since the volume of throughput via the port of Koper destined to the markets Ukrainian and Russian markets, is insignificant. The throughput growth trend has been continuing also this year, and practically in all cargo groups, primarily in containers throughut, which presents additional challenges, especially as regards ensuring storage areas. This was additionally affected by slower containers turnover, which stay longer time in the port due to overcrowding of hinterland warehouses and irregular arrival of ships. The situation in the global maritime container shipping is still unstable. The ports around the world are facing ship delays, occupancy of storage areas, disruptions in the distribution, which has an impact on the whole logistic chain, on the land transport, which must adapt to this. At the end of April, The Federation of European Private Port Companies and terminals published the urge addressed to the European institutions to help the port activity to overcome this crisis, which was additionally worsened by the closure of the largest world port in Shanghai due to the Covid. The Federation forecasts that the closure of this Chinese port will affect the European ports for the next three or four months.
In the first quarter of 2022, Luka Koper Group did not perceive the negative consequences of the war and achieved good business results. Financial indicators of the Luka Koper Group achieved in the first quarter of 2022, were better than planned indicators and better than achieved ones in the first quarter of 2021. In the first quarter of 2022, the maritime throughput exceeded planned quantities by 10 percent, the throughput in 2021 by 18 percent and namely in all cargo groups. In March 2022, Luka Koper set a new monthly record in the container throughput when nearly 100 thousand TEU, container units, were transhipped. In 2022, the Luka Koper Group started thenimplementation of larger investments at the container terminal, which represent a new development cycle of this the most imporrtant strategic cargo group.
