9 Second Quarter 2020 Earnings Conference Call China Expedited Service Why Matson introduced the CLX+ vessel charters in the second quarter… • Builds upon our successful 15-year track record of operating the CLX Matson will offer this weekly CLX+ service through peak season (end of October) or potentially longer as our customers’ needs dictate. – Long-standing relationships with customers – Relentless focus on on-time freight availability for customers – Cargo from vessel charters offloaded at SSAT-operated Pier A in Long Beach and transloaded on Matson-dedicated chassis to the off-dock facility at Shippers Transport • Unique set of conditions provided Matson this opportunity – Exceptional demand for expedited ocean freight due to supply and demand volatility resulting from COVID-19 pandemic • Dislocation in the transpacific air freight market continued from the first quarter – Low vessel charter rates – Significantly lower fuel costs Port of Long Beach |
10 Second Quarter 2020 Earnings Conference Call China Expedited Service – Current Business Trends • Expect continued demand for CLX and CLX+ expedited ocean services as disruption and loss of capacity in the transpacific air cargo and ocean freight markets remain – Increasing demand for e-commerce goods – Rebound in retail-related goods as COVID-19 mitigation efforts continue to ease • Expect CLX and CLX+ vessels to be at capacity in 3Q • Daniel K.
