ZIM delivered a strong quarterly surprise, but freight rates continue to decline and management warns of a weaker Q4. ZIM's EBITDA guidance was raised to $2–$2.2 billion, yet base-case valuation now implies a target price of $11, well below current levels. Recent outperformance in ZIM's freight rates appears to be a one-off, not sustainable market strength.
ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (ZIM) reported mixed Q3 earnings with ongoing freight rate and overcapacity concerns. However, the stock remains a buy as current valuation discounts have already fully reflected sector headwinds. ZIM's forward P/E ratio and P/B ratio currently hover around 5.83x and 0.515x, respectively.
ZIM's third-quarter 2025 revenues are hurt by a decrease in freight rates and carried volume.

The market's assumption about ZIM is too negative, judging by the shipping rates and valuation multiples. The U.S.-China trade tensions certainly create uncertainties, but I see multiple potential outcomes. Wall Street's rating reflects the worst potential outcome.
Zim Integrated offers deep value after a 30% decline, with potential for a 50%+ upside from current levels. Q2 results were weak due to macro headwinds, but ZIM maintains strong liquidity, a modern fleet, and raised 2025 guidance. Takeover speculation and a cyclical shipping industry reversal could drive significant gains for ZIM shareholders.
In the closing of the recent trading day, ZIM Integrated Shipping Services (ZIM) stood at $12.92, denoting a -5.21% move from the preceding trading day.
