Commenting on these results, the president and director Finnlines delegate, Thomas Doepel, recalled that 'the The first three months of the year were characterised by volatility for the entire maritime sector. The serious conflict in Middle East, which involved the United States and the attack to Iran on February 28, 2026 and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, caused the largest disturbance in the global oil market in modern history. To Finnlines - ha explained Doepel - this immediately translated into steep increases in fuel prices and increased volatility of prices. Due to the delay in the implementation of the increase in fuel costs in our Bunker Adjustment Factor, the effect short-term fuel price increases have had a negative impact on our quarterly financial result. The global energy crisis - specified the president and CEO of Finnlines - wasn't the only factor in increasing costs for intra-European trade. From January 1, 2026 - he recalled - The EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) requires ships to cover 100% of emissions, introducing new and significant carbon surcharges".
