MATSON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Matson, Inc., a holding company incorporated in the State of Hawaii, and its subsidiaries (“Matson” or the “Company”), is a leading provider of ocean transportation and logistics services. The Company consists of two segments, Ocean Transportation and Logistics.
Ocean Transportation: Matson’s Ocean Transportation business is conducted through Matson Navigation Company, Inc. (“MatNav”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Matson, Inc. Founded in 1882, MatNav provides a vital lifeline of ocean freight transportation services to the domestic non-contiguous economies of Hawaii, Alaska and Guam, and to other island economies in Micronesia. MatNav also operates premium, expedited services from China to Long Beach, California, which includes cargo from other Asia origins, provides services to Okinawa, Japan and various islands in the South Pacific, and operates an international export service from Alaska to Asia. In addition, subsidiaries of MatNav provide stevedoring, refrigerated cargo services, inland transportation and other terminal services for MatNav in Hawaii and Alaska.
Matson has a 35 percent ownership interest in SSA Terminals, LLC (“SSAT”), a joint venture between Matson Ventures, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MatNav, and SSA Ventures, Inc., a subsidiary of Carrix, Inc. SSAT currently provides terminal and stevedoring services to various carriers at seven terminal facilities on the U.S. West Coast, including three facilities dedicated for MatNav’s use. Matson records its share of income from SSAT in costs and expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, and within the Ocean Transportation segment due to the nature of SSAT’s operations.
Logistics: Matson’s Logistics business is conducted through Matson Logistics, Inc. (“Matson Logistics”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of MatNav. Established in 1987, Matson Logistics extends the geographic reach of Matson’s transportation network throughout North America and Asia, and provides a variety of logistics services to its customers including: (i) multimodal transportation brokerage of domestic and international rail intermodal services, long-haul and regional highway trucking services, specialized hauling, flat-bed and project services, less-than-truckload services, and expedited freight services (collectively, “Transportation Brokerage” services); (ii) less-than-container load (“LCL”) consolidation and freight forwarding services (collectively, “Freight Forwarding” services); (iii) warehousing, trans-loading, value-added packaging and distribution services (collectively, “Warehousing” services); and (iv) purchase order management, booking services, and non-vessel operating common carrier (“NVOCC”) freight forwarding services (collectively, “Supply Chain Management” services).
2. GENERAL AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Matson, Inc. and all wholly-owned subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany amounts and transactions. Significant investments in businesses, partnerships, and limited liability companies in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but has the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method. The Company accounts for its investment in SSAT using the equity method of accounting.
Due to the nature of the Company’s operations, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim periods, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
5
Fiscal Period: The period end for Matson covered by this report is March 31, 2026. The period end for MatNav and its subsidiaries covered by this report is March 27, 2026.
Significant Accounting Policies: The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Estimates and assumptions are used for but not limited to: useful lives of property and equipment, impairment of investments; impairment of long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill; capitalized interest; allowance for credit losses; legal contingencies; insurance reserves and other related liabilities; accrual estimates; pension and post-retirement estimates; multi-employer withdrawal liabilities; operating lease assets and liabilities; estimates of income (loss) from SSAT; and income tax estimates. Future results could be materially affected if actual results differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Recognition of Revenues and Expenses: Revenue and expenses in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented net of elimination of intercompany amounts and transactions. The following is a description of the Company’s principal revenue generating activities by segment, and the Company’s revenue and expense recognition policy for each activity for the periods presented:
| (1) | Ocean Transportation revenue transactions are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars except for less than 3 percent of Ocean Transportation services revenue and fuel sales revenue categories which are denominated in foreign currencies. |
| ◾ | Ocean Transportation services revenue is recognized ratably over the duration of a voyage based on the relative transit time completed in each reporting period. Vessel operating costs and other ocean transportation operating costs, such as terminal operating overhead and general and administrative expenses, are charged to operating costs as incurred. |
| ◾ | Terminal and other related services revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Terminal and other related service costs are recognized as incurred. |
| ◾ | Fuel sales revenue and related costs are recognized when the Company has completed delivery of the product to the customer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract. |
| (1) | Logistics revenue transactions are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars except for less than 3 percent of Transportation Brokerage and Freight Forwarding services revenue, and Supply Chain Management services revenue categories which are denominated in foreign currencies. |
| ◾ | Transportation Brokerage and Freight Forwarding services revenue consists of amounts billed to customers for services provided. The primary costs include third-party purchased transportation services, agent commissions, labor and equipment. Revenue and the related purchased third-party transportation costs are recognized over the duration of a delivery based upon the relative transit time completed in each reporting period. Labor, agent commissions, and other operating costs are expensed as incurred. The Company reports revenue on a gross basis as the Company serves as the principal in these transactions because it is responsible for fulfilling the contractual arrangements with the customer and has latitude in establishing prices. |
| ◾ | Warehousing services revenue consist of amounts billed to customers for storage, handling, and value-added packaging of customer merchandise. Storage revenue is recognized in the month the service is provided to the |
6
| customer. Storage related costs are recognized as incurred. Other Warehousing services revenue and related costs are recognized in proportion to the services performed. |
| ◾ | Supply Chain Management and other services revenue, and related costs are recognized in proportion to the services performed. |
The Company generally invoices its customers at the commencement of the voyage or the transportation service being provided, or as other services are being performed. Revenue is deferred when services are invoiced in advance to the customer. Deferred revenue is included in other liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company’s receivables are classified as short-term as collection terms are for periods of less than one year. The Company expenses sales commissions and contract acquisition costs as incurred because the amounts are generally immaterial. These expenses are included in general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Capitalized Interest: The Company capitalizes interest costs during the period as the qualified assets are being readied for their intended use. The Company determined that vessel construction costs are considered qualifying assets for the purposes of capitalizing interest on these assets. The amount of capitalized interest is calculated based on the amount of expenditures incurred related to the construction of these vessels using a weighted average interest rate. The weighted average interest rate is determined using the Company’s average borrowings outstanding during the period. Capitalized interest is included in vessel construction in progress in property and equipment in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (see Note 5). The Company capitalized $0.9 million and $1.1 million of interest related to the construction of new vessels for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Dividends: The Company’s first quarter 2026 cash dividend of $0.36 per share was paid on March 5, 2026. On April 23, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.36 per share payable on June 4, 2026 to shareholders of record on May 7, 2026.
Repurchase of Shares: During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 0.4 million and 0.5 million shares for a total cost of $54.4 million and $69.2 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, the maximum number of remaining shares that may be repurchased under the Company’s share repurchase program was approximately 0.8 million shares. On April 23, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an additional 3.0 million shares of common stock to be added to the Company’s existing share repurchase program and extended the program to December 31, 2029.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements: In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-05”). ASU 2025-05 provides optional simplified methods for estimating credit losses on current accounts receivable. ASU 2025-05 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements: In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure of certain expenses in the financial statements including employee compensation and depreciation and amortization of intangible assets on an annual and interim basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. ASU 2024-03 can be adopted either: (i) prospectively to the financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of the ASU or (ii) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of adopting ASU 2024-03 but does not expect it will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
Reportable segments are components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer.
The Company identified two reportable segments on the basis of internal information provided to the CODM: Ocean Transportation and Logistics which are described in Note 1. Each segment is managed separately based upon fundamental differences in the operations of each segment. The Company’s Ocean Transportation service primarily involves the transportation of customer cargo on Company owned and chartered vessels. The Company’s Logistics service provides customers with logistics solutions primarily using third-party purchased transportation. The Company’s CODM assesses the performance of each segment using operating income. The Company’s CODM reviews the performance of each segment using monthly internal reports which provide variance analysis of actual results by segment compared to budget, forecast and prior year. The Company’s CODM uses this information when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. Segment balance sheet information is not provided to the CODM as capital decisions are based upon the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
Reportable segment financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:
| (1) | Ocean Transportation operating revenue excludes inter-segment revenue of $17.8 million and $21.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. |
| (2) | Logistics operating revenue excludes inter-segment revenue of $29.8 million and $32.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. |
| (3) | Ocean Transportation operating overhead includes dry-docking amortization of $7.7 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. |
| (4) | Capital expenditures exclude accrued capital expenditures of $3.2 million and $7.6 million as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. |
Ocean Transportation’s operating expenses includes the following:
| ● | Operating costs includes: |
| o | Direct Cargo Expense includes terminal handling costs including labor, stevedoring and wharfage, outside purchased transportation and other related costs. |
| o | Vessel Operating Expense includes crew wages and related costs; fuel; pilots, tugs, lines and related costs; vessel charter expenses; and other vessel operating related expenses. |
8
| o | Operating Overhead Expense includes vessel repair and maintenance costs, inactive vessel costs, dry-docking amortization, equipment lease costs, equipment repair costs, insurance, port engineers and other maintenance costs, other vessel and shoreside related overhead and other indirect costs. |
| o | Depreciation and Amortization Expense includes depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangible assets. |
| ● | Income from SSAT includes the Company’s share of income from its equity investment in SSAT and has been aggregated into the Ocean Transportation segment due to the operations of SSAT being an integral part of the Company’s Ocean Transportation business (see Note 4). |
| ● | General and Administrative Expense includes employee salaries, wages and other related costs, equipment maintenance, computer hardware and software, professional fees and other general and administrative expenses. |
Logistics’ operating expenses includes the following:
| ● | Operating costs includes: |

The Company evaluates its goodwill and intangible assets for possible impairment in the fourth quarter, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying amount. The Company has reporting units within the Ocean Transportation and Logistics reportable segments. The Company considered the general economic and market conditions and its impact on the performance of each of the Company’s reporting units. Based on the Company’s assessment of its market capitalization, future forecasts and the amount of excess of fair value over the carrying value of the reporting units in the 2025 annual impairment tests, the Company concluded that an impairment triggering event did not occur during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
The Company continues to monitor events and changes in circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions used in determining the fair value, including the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows generated by the reporting units, long-term growth and discount rates, comparable company market valuations, and industry and economic trends, including the impact of tariffs. It is possible that future changes in such circumstances, including future changes in the assumptions and estimates used in assessing the fair value of the reporting unit, could require the Company to record a non-cash impairment charge.

12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company values its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy of valuation techniques for fair value measurements. Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. If the technique used to measure fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy, the lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy.
The Company uses Level 1 inputs for the fair values of its cash and cash equivalents, and CCF cash and cash equivalents and investments, and Level 2 inputs for fixed rate debt. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, and CCF cash and cash equivalents approximate their carrying values due to the nature of the instruments. The fair value of CCF investments is calculated based upon quoted prices available in active markets. The fair value of fixed rate debt is calculated based upon interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company’s existing debt arrangements.
14
The carrying value and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:
13. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of non-vested restricted stock units. The computation of weighted average common shares outstanding excluded a nominal amount of anti-dilutive restricted stock units for each period ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
The computations for basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes, and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Company, from time to time, may make or may have made certain forward-looking statements, whether orally or in writing, such as, among others, forecasts or projections of the Company’s future performance or statements of management’s plans and objectives. These statements are considered “forward-looking” statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may be contained in, among other things, Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings such as Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, the Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders, the Company’s Sustainability Report, press releases made by the Company, the Company’s Internet websites (including websites of its subsidiaries), and oral statements made by officers of the Company. Except for historical information contained in these written or oral communications, all other statements are forward-looking statements. These include, for example, all references to 2026 or future years, including such references included under “First Quarter 2026 Discussion and Outlook for 2026,” as well as statements generally identified through the inclusion of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “commit,” “estimate,” “expect,” “focus,” “goal,” “hope,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” and “will,” or similar statements or variations of such terms and other similar expressions. New risks or uncertainties may emerge from time to time, risks that the Company currently does not consider to be material could become material, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all such risks, nor can it assess the impact of all such risks on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results or outcomes, or the timing of results or outcomes, to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, forward-looking statements cannot be relied upon as a guarantee of future results or outcomes and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those projected in the statements, including but not limited to the factors that are described in Part II, Item 1A under the caption “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update publicly forward-looking statements or any factors that may affect actual results, whether as a result of new information, future events, circumstances occurring after the date of this report, or otherwise.
OVERVIEW
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is designed to provide a discussion of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect its future results from the perspective of management. The discussion that follows is intended to provide information that will assist in understanding the changes in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from period to period, the primary factors that accounted for those changes, and how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affected the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes herein, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K, and other publicly available information.
FIRST QUARTER 2026 DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK FOR 2026
Ocean Transportation: The Company’s container volume in the Hawaii service in the first quarter 2026 was 5.6 percent lower year-over-year primarily due to lower general demand and the dry-docking of a competitor’s vessel in the year ago period. Hawaii’s economy is expected to experience modest growth supported by construction activity, while tourism remains soft and inflationary pressures persist. The Company expects volume in full year 2026 to be comparable to the level achieved in 2025, reflecting similar economic conditions and stable market share.
In the China service, the Company’s container volume in the first quarter 2026 decreased 9.5 percent year-over-year primarily due to lower general demand from a more traditional Lunar New Year freight cycle. The Company saw higher than expected freight demand post-Lunar New Year and the uptick in freight demand has continued to build in the second quarter as demand strengthens and volume returns to a more traditional seasonal pattern. The Company also
17
expects this demand strength to continue through peak season. In the second quarter 2026, the Company expects higher volume compared to the prior year period, which included a market decline in Transpacific demand due to the tariffs imposed in April 2025. The Company expects volume in full year 2026 to be moderately higher than the level achieved in 2025 based on our expectations of continued solid U.S. consumer demand and a stable trading environment in the Transpacific tradelane.
In the Guam service, the Company’s container volume in the first quarter 2026 was flat year-over-year. In the near term, the Company expects Guam’s economy to remain stable. For full year 2026, the Company expects volume to be comparable to the level achieved last year.
In the Alaska service, the Company’s container volume in the first quarter 2026 decreased 2.0 percent year-over-year. The decrease was primarily due to lower general demand, partially offset by an additional northbound sailing and an additional AAX sailing compared to the year ago period. In the near term, the Company expects continued economic growth in Alaska supported by a low unemployment rate, jobs growth and continued oil and gas exploration and production activity. For full year 2026, the Company expects volume to be comparable to the level achieved last year.
The contribution from the Company’s SSAT joint venture investment was $5.0 million in the first quarter 2026, or $1.6 million lower than first quarter 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower lift volume. For full year 2026, the Company expects the contribution from SSAT to be lower than the $32.5 million achieved in full year 2025.
Based on the outlook trends noted above, the Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income in the second quarter 2026 to be approximately $20 million higher than the $98.6 million achieved in the second quarter 2025. For full year 2026, the Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income to modestly exceed the level achieved in full year 2025.
Logistics: Operating income for the Company’s Logistics segment was $6.8 million in the first quarter 2026, or $1.7 million lower compared to the level achieved in the first quarter 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a lower contribution from supply chain management. For the second quarter 2026, the Company expects Logistics operating income to approach the $14.4 million achieved in the second quarter 2025. For full year 2026, the Company expects Logistics operating income to approach the $44.2 million achieved in full year 2025.
Consolidated Operating Income: To date, the Iran conflict has not impacted the Company’s operating performance or service levels; however, it has impacted fuel prices in all of the Company’s markets. While the Company has effective mechanisms to recover the cost of fuel by the end of the year, for the second quarter the Company expects a negative impact from the lag in the recovery of fuel costs. For the second quarter 2026, the Company expects consolidated operating income to be approximately $20 million higher than the $113.0 million achieved in the second quarter 2025. For full year 2026, the Company expects consolidated operating income to modestly exceed the level achieved in full year 2025 based on the Company’s expectations of China demand strength in the second quarter continuing through peak season, continued solid U.S. consumer demand and a stable trading environment in the Transpacific Tradelane. For 2026 compared to 2025, the Company continues to expect a more normal operating seasonality pattern with consolidated operating income in the second and third quarters being the strongest relative to the first and fourth quarters.
Depreciation and Amortization: For full year 2026, the Company expects depreciation and amortization expense to be approximately $210 million, inclusive of dry-docking amortization of approximately $35 million.
Interest Income: The Company expects interest income for the full year 2026 to be approximately $16 million.
Interest Expense, Net: The Company expects interest expense for the full year 2026 to be approximately $6 million.
Other Income (Expense): The Company expects full year 2026 other income (expense) to be approximately $7 million in income, which is attributable to the amortization of certain components of net periodic benefit costs or gains related to the Company’s pension and post-retirement plans.
Income Taxes: In the first quarter 2026, the Company’s effective tax rate was 16.6 percent. For the full year 2026, the Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 21.0 percent.
18
Capital and Vessel Dry-docking Expenditures: For the first quarter 2026, the Company made capital expenditure payments excluding new vessel construction expenditures of $30.3 million, new vessel construction expenditures (including capitalized interest and owner’s items) of $18.0 million, and dry-docking payments of $11.9 million. For the full year 2026, the Company expects to make other capital expenditure payments, including maintenance capital expenditures, of approximately $150 to $170 million, new vessel construction expenditures (including capitalized interest and owner’s items) of approximately $400 million, and dry-docking payments of approximately $45 million.

Consolidated Operating Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $24.2 million, or 3.1 percent, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was due to a decrease in Ocean Transportation revenue of $30.9 million, offset by an increase in Logistics revenue of $6.7 million.
Operating Costs and Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $3.5 million, or 0.5 percent, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was due to a decrease in Ocean Transportation operating costs and expenses of $11.9 million, offset by an increase in Logistics operating costs and expenses of $8.4 million.
Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $20.7 million, or 25.2 percent, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was due to a decrease in Ocean Transportation operating income of $19.0 million, and a decrease in Logistics operating income of $1.7 million.
Changes in operating revenue, operating costs and expenses, and operating income are further described below in the Analysis of Operating Revenue and Income by Segment.
Interest Income was $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was due to lower amounts of cash and cash equivalent, and CCF funds that were invested in interest bearing accounts during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Interest Expense, net was $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Interest expense incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 was lower due to a reduction in outstanding debt during the period, which was offset by a reduction in capitalized interest related to the construction of new vessels for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Other Income (Expense), net was $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Other income (expense), net relates to the amortization of certain components of net periodic benefit costs or gains related to the Company’s pension and post-retirement plans. The decrease in other income (expense), net, was due to a decrease in the amortization of favorable adjustments related to the Company’s pension and post-retirement plan liabilities.
19
Income Taxes were $11.3 million, or 16.6 percent of income before taxes, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $19.9 million, or 21.6 percent of income before taxes, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 benefited from higher discrete tax adjustments that lowered the effective tax rate for that period, compared to the same prior year period.

Ocean Transportation revenue decreased $30.9 million, or 4.8 percent, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower volume in the China service.
On a year-over-year FEU basis, Hawaii service container volume decreased 5.6 percent primarily due to lower general demand and the dry docking of a competitor’s vessel in the year ago period; Alaska service volume decreased 2.0 percent primarily due to lower general demand, partially offset by an additional northbound sailing and an additional AAX sailing compared to the year ago period; China service volume was 9.5 percent lower primarily due to lower general demand from a more traditional Lunar New Year freight cycle; Guam service volume was flat; and Other containers volume decreased 2.9 percent.
Ocean Transportation operating income decreased $19.0 million, or 25.8 percent, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a lower contribution from the China service.
The Company’s SSAT terminal joint venture investment contributed $5.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $6.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower lift volume.
Logistics Operating Results – Three months ended March 31, 2026 compared with 2025:
Logistics revenue increased $6.7 million, or 4.6 percent, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher revenue in transportation brokerage.
20
Logistics operating income decreased $1.7 million, or 20.0 percent, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a lower contribution from supply chain management.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are its cash flows generated from operating activities and its debt. Sources of liquidity available to the Company as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025 were as follows:
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accounts Receivable and CCF: Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and CCF as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025 were as follows:
| March 31, | December 31, | |||||||
(In millions) | | 2026 | | 2025 | | Change | |||
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 100.1 | $ | 141.9 | $ | (41.8) | |||
Accounts receivable, net (1) | $ | 257.9 | $ | 256.8 | $ | 1.1 | |||
CCF - cash and cash equivalents, and investments account | $ | 521.5 | $ | 532.7 | $ | (11.2) | |||
| (1) | Eligible accounts receivable of $82.0 million and $82.3 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, were assigned to the CCF. The Company’s CCF is described in Note 7 of Part I, Item 1 above. |
Changes in the Company’s cash and cash equivalents for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, are as follows:
(1) Changes in net cash provided by operating activities:
Changes in net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, were due to the following:
Net income was $56.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $72.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Income from SSAT was $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in income from SSAT was primarily due to lower lift volume during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same prior year period. There were no distributions received from SSAT during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Changes in accounts receivable were primarily due to the timing of collections associated with those receivables.
21
Changes in accounts payable, accruals and other liabilities were due to the timing of payments associated with those liabilities. Changes in operating lease assets and liabilities were primarily due to new operating lease additions and renewals, offset by operating lease payments and terminations. Deferred dry-docking payments for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $11.9 million, compared to $10.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Changes in deferred dry-docking are primarily due to the timing of vessel dry-dock related activities and the payments associated with those activities.
(2) Changes in net cash used in investing activities:
Changes in net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, were due to the following:
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, cash deposits into the CCF included $4.6 million of interest income and $1.2 million from the repurchase of assigned accounts receivable, compared to $4.7 million of interest income and $100.7 million from the repurchase of assigned accounts receivable for the same prior year period. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, cash withdrawals from the CCF for the payment of vessel construction milestone payments were $17.4 million, compared to $65.0 million for the same prior year period. The decrease in vessel construction milestone payments was due to the timing of milestone payments related to the Company’s fleet renewal program. Qualifying withdrawal payments relate to milestone payments for the construction of three new Aloha Class vessels. Capital expenditures (excluding vessel construction expenditures) were $30.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $22.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Capital expenditures (excluding vessel construction expenditures) primarily relate to vessel related expenditures, the acquisition of containers, chassis and other equipment, and expenditures on other capital related projects. The increase in capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same prior year period primarily related to the timing of when vessel maintenance activities are performed and when other capital related projects are incurred.
(3) Changes in net cash used in financing activities:
Changes in net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, were due to the following:
(In millions) | | Change | |
Repurchase of Matson common stock | $ | 14.1 | |
Shares withheld for taxes related to settlement of restricted stock units |
| (9.0) | |
Dividends paid | 0.3 | ||
Total | $ | 5.4 | |
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid $52.8 million to repurchase Matson common stock, compared to $66.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid $10.1 million in scheduled fixed interest debt payments, compared to $10.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid $25.1 million in withholding taxes related to vested restricted stock units, compared to $16.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid $11.0 million in dividends, compared to $11.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in dividend payments was due to a reduction in common stock outstanding, partially offset by an increase in dividends declared per share of common stock by the Company.
22
Working Capital: The Company had a working capital deficit of $93.5 million at March 31, 2026, compared to a working capital deficit of $55.5 million at December 31, 2025. Working capital is primarily impacted by the amount of net cash provided by operating activities, the amount of capital expenditures, the timing of collections associated with accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, and by the amount and timing of payments associated with accounts payable, accruals, income taxes and other liabilities. The decrease in the Company’s working capital at March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025 is primarily due to lower cash and cash equivalents as described above.
Capital Construction Fund: The Company’s CCF is described in Note 7 of Part I, Item 1 above. The Company utilizes its CCF to fund milestone payments for the construction of new vessels. Cash on deposit and CCF investments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:
March 31, | December 31, | ||||||||
(In millions) | | 2026 | | 2025 | Change | ||||
CCF - Cash and cash equivalents, and investments account | $ | 521.5 | $ | 532.7 | $ | (11.2) | |||
The CCF decreased by $11.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 due to vessel milestone payments of $16.3 million, offset by approximately $5.1 million of cash deposited into the CCF from interest income and the repurchase of assigned receivables.
Debt: The Company’s debt is described in Note 8 of Part I, Item 1 above. The Company utilizes a mix of fixed and variable debt for liquidity and to fund the Company’s operations. Total Debt as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:
Total Debt decreased by $10.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025, due to scheduled fixed interest debt repayments.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $544.3 million of remaining borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility.
Capital Expenditures: Except as described below, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no material changes to the Company’s expected capital expenditures for the years ending December 31, 2026 and 2027 as described in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid $16.3 million in milestone payments under the vessel construction agreements, compared to $65.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The following represents the estimated timing of future milestone payments under the vessel construction agreements as of March 31, 2026:
Repurchase of Shares: During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 0.4 million and 0.5 million shares for a total cost of $54.4 million and $69.2 million, respectively. The amount of shares repurchased by the Company during any period is dependent on the amount of available cash and cash equivalents, the Company’s stock price and other factors. The maximum number of remaining shares that may be repurchased under the Company’s share repurchase program was approximately 0.8 million shares at March 31, 2026. On April 23, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an additional 3.0 million shares of common stock to be added to the Company’s existing share repurchase program and extended the program to December 31, 2029.
