1 Introductory note
Compliant with the Market and Financial Instrument Act, Ljubljana Stock Exchange Rules as well as Guidelines and Disclosure for Listed Companies, Luka Koper, d. d., Vojkovo nabrežje 38, 6501 Koper discloses this Non-Audited Report on the performance of Luka Koper Group and Luka Koper, d. d., in 2025.
In compliance with the financial calendar, the Annual Report 2025 will be published on 16 April 2026.
2 Performance highlights of the Luka Koper Group in 2025
The Luka Koper Group has concluded another successful year. Despite the challenges posed by the unstable global economy, trade uncertainty, and volatile supply routes – included restricted shipping through the Red Sea and Suez Canal – we responded successfully by adapting and actively seeking new business opportunities. We achieved growth in the throughput of strategic commodity groups and improved key business indicators.
The net sales revenue of the Luka Koper Group in 2025 amounted to EUR 380.0 million, which is 13 percent or EUR 42.5 million more than planned and 15 percent or EUR 50.2 million more than in 2024. The growth was mainly due to higher container and car transshipments and higher revenue from storage fees.
Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to EUR 96.3 million, exceeding the planned figure by 74 percent or by EUR 40.8 million, and was by 44 percent or EUR 29.3 million higher than in 2024. In addition to higher net sales revenues in the amount of EUR 2.9 million, mainly from compensation received, contributed to the higher operating profit (EBIT) compared to the plan.
Operating costs which amounted to EUR 290 million in 2025, exceeded the planned amount by 2 percent or by EUR 4.7 million. Service costs were higher than planned due to higher port service costs and higher concession costs as result of higher throughput and higher net sales revenue, labour costs were higher than planned due to higher business performance payments, and other expenses were higher than planned due to higher compensation costs.
Compared to 2024, operating profit (EBIT) was higher due to higher net sales revenue and EUR 0.6 million higher other income. Operating costs increased by 8 percent, or EUR 21.6 million, compared to 2024. The largest increase was in labour costs, which rose by 18 percent or EUR 22.4 million, due to higher number of employees resulting from the hiring of agency workers and additional hires due to the increased volume of business, as well as performance-related payments. Material costs increased by 8 percent, or EUR 1.6 million, mainly due to higher energy and maintenance material costs. Service costs decreased by 1 percent, or EUR 1.1 million, and amortisation and depreciation costs decreased by 5 percent or by EUR 1.8 million due to the revaluation of useful lives carried out in 2024. Within service costs, port service costs decreased due to the employment of agency workers, while the costs of external contractors and concession costs increased as a result of higher throughput and higher net sales revenue. Other expenses increased by EUR 0.5 million, mainly due to higher revaluation of operating expenses and the compensation for the use of building plot.
The share of operating costs in net sales revenue amounted to 76.2 percent in 2025, which is 5.1 percentage point less than in 2024. The share of labour costs increased, while the shares of service costs, depreciation, and other expenses decreased.
The Group's net profit amounted to EUR 81.5 million, which is 66 percent or EUR 32.3 million better than planned and 35 percent or EUR 21.2 million more than in 2024. The financial result was 65 percent, or EUR 2.3 million, higher than planned, and 4 percent, or EUR 0.2 million, lower than the result achieved in 2024. The results of associated companies exceeded the plan by 22 percent, or EUR 0.3 million, and were at the same level than those
{3}------------------------------------------------
achieved in 2024. In 2025, the net profit was also affected by the reversal of deferred tax assets amounting to EUR 2.8 million, which mainly relates to the impairment of other investments.
In 2025, we handled 23 million tons of cargo by ship, which is in line with the planned volumes and the volumes handled in 2024. The planned volumes and the volumes in 2024 were exceeded in the container and car commodity groups.
We handled 1,272,161 container units (TEU), which is a new historical record, exceeding our plan by 9 percent and the 2024 result by 12 percent. Growth was achieved primarily due to new business related to supplying production facilities in hinterland markets and the restructuring of shipping services from the Far East and the Mediterranean.
Car transshipment amounted to 914, 817 vehicles, which is 3 percent more than planned and more than in 2024, mainly due to increased imports of vehicles from Chinese manufacturers and growing exports to Mediterranean countries.
In 2025, we recorded 80 cruise ship arrivals at the Cruise terminal, the highest number of arrivals ever in a single season, and welcomed 123,928 passengers, which is only 1 percent or 1.401 passengers less than in in 2024. In May, we opened a new, modern Cruise terminal which coincided with the 20th anniversary of the first arrival of a cruise ship in Koper and the start of terminal operations.
In 2025, the Luka Koper Group continued to implement an intensive investment cycle and completed the construction of the Cruise terminal building, a fire station, the first stage of development of 6A landfill area for car storage, first phase of the renovation of the cold storage facility for perishable goods, the development of the handling areas for the storage of full containers, the completion of the technological system for adding biocomponents to jet fuel, and the purchase of four new RTG cranes.
