AS Tallinna Sadam financial results for 2025 Q3 and 9 months

In the third quarter, Tallinna Sadam earned close to 32 million euros in sales revenue and close to 9 million euros in profit, adjusted EBITDA was 16 million euros. Sales revenue increased by +1.5%, profit by +54% and adjusted EBITDA by +17% compared to the last year. The revenue for nine months was 90 million euros, profit 19 million euros and adjusted EBITDA 45 million euros. The revenue of 9 months decreased by –1.4%, profit increased +27% and adjusted EBITDA increased +11%. In the third quarter, the volume of investments was 9 million euros, and we invested a total of 21 million euros within nine months.

The number of passengers grew +1.4% and cargo volumes +8%, vessel calls decreased by –1.6% in the third quarter of 2025. Ferry segment showed growth in the number of vehicles +2.4%. The icebreaker Botnica was chartered 22% of the time which is –20% less than last year.

“We have achieved strong results in the third quarter. Growth continued in both, volumes and revenues, in passenger and cargo harbours. Revenues of Icebreaker Botnica have decreased due to the shortening of the charter period, while profitability of its activities has increased. The efficiency in operations is demonstrated by growth in adjusted EBITDA and profit,” commented Valdo Kalm, the Chairman of the Management Board, on the results.

Tallinna Sadam management will present the financial results of the Group at a webinars on 10 November, including webinar in Estonian starting at 10.00 (EET) (link to EST webinar) and webinar in English starting at 11.00 (EET) (link to ENG webinar).

Revenue
Revenue decreased by EUR 1.3 million (–1.4%) in the first 9 months of 2025 to EUR 89.5 million. The decline in revenue was due to a decrease in charter days of the icebreaker Botnica (other segment). Revenue increased in the passenger and cargo harbour segments and in the ferry segment providing service between mainland Estonia and the larger islands. In the third quarter, revenue increased by EUR 0.5 million (+1.5%).
By revenue type, the largest change over the 9-month period was the decline in vessel charter fee revenue, which decreased by EUR 3.8 million (–39.4%) due to a 24% drop in charter days. The percentage decrease in revenue exceeded the decline in charter days, as the project-based work performed after the icebreaking season was carried out at lower daily rates. Vessel due revenue increased by EUR 1.7 million (+7.,3%) to EUR 25.6 million. Vessel due revenue increased, driven by a higher number of vessel calls from passenger, cruise, and cargo ships, as well as by higher tariff rates. Cargo charge revenue grew by EUR 0.6 million (+12.8%) to EUR 5.0 million due to increased cargo volumes and, for 2025, higher expected annual revenue from liquid bulk, which, under IFRS 15, had an additional positive impact on the 9-month results. Operating lease income increased by EUR 0.3 million (+3.1%) to EUR 11.0 million. Growth was recorded across the cargo, ferry, and passenger harbour segments, mainly due to indexed rate adjustments. Revenue from other services decreased by EUR 0.3 million (–14.9%), as the previous year’s project-based work performed by Botnica included higher additional income from the provision of catering services. Passenger fee revenue increased by EUR 0.3 million (+2.8%) to EUR 9.4 million. The growth was supported by an increase in passenger numbers (+1.0%) and higher rates applied to regular line passengers and cruise passengers using Old City Harbour. Revenue from electricity sales decreased by EUR 0.2 million (–6.3%) to EUR 3.2 million. Electricity revenue decreased in the cargo harbour segment due to lower electricity sales volumes and prices. In the passenger harbour segment, however, electricity revenue increased as a result of higher sales volumes. Revenue from ferry service provision  increased by EUR 0.1 million (+0.4%) to EUR 27.9 million. The number of trips decreased by 0.8% compared to the previous year. Revenue growth was positively affected by the indexation of tariffs in line with Estonia’s labour cost and consumer price indices, while the decline in the fuel price index had a negative impact.

EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increased by EUR 4.4 million (+10.8%) in the first 9 months to EUR 45.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased in the Cargo harbours, Passenger harbours, and Other segments, supported by higher revenue (in the passenger and cargo harbours) and lower expenses (in the Cargo harbours and Other segments). The Ferry segment remained in decline, as expenses grew faster than revenue, particularly due to higher depreciation and personnel expenses. In the third quarter, adjusted EBITDA increased by EUR 2.2 million (+16.7%) year-on-year. Adjusted EBITDA increased in the Other, Cargo harbours, and Passenger harbours segments but declined in the Ferry segment. The adjusted EBITDA margin rose from 45.0% to 50.6% over the 9-month period and from 42.6% to 48.9% in the third quarter.

Profit
Profit before tax increased by EUR 6.3 million (+35.0%) to EUR 24.3 million compared to the 9 months in the previous year. Net profit grew more strongly than operating profit, driven by the reduction in financial expenses. In the second quarter of 2025, dividends totalling EUR 19.2 million were paid out, accompanied by income tax expenses of EUR 5.4 million, which was EUR 2.3 million higher than the tax expense related to the previous year’s dividend payment. Although the amount of dividends remained unchanged, the dividend tax rate increased in 2025, and the reduced rate for regularly paid dividends was eliminated. Net profit for the 9-month period increased by EUR 4.0 million (+27.0%) year-on-year. The third quarter net profit was EUR 8.6 million (EUR +3.0 million; +54.0%) and profit before tax was EUR 8.6 million (EUR +3.0 million; +54.0%).

Investments
In the first 9 months of 2025, the Group invested EUR 20.8 million, which was EUR 12.6 million less than in the previous year. Investments during the first 9 months of 2025 were mainly related to the construction of an offshore wind terminal- quay at Paldiski South Harbour, quay upgrades at cargo harbours, scheduled dry-docking of a ferriesy, information technology projects, design works at the passenger harbour, procurement of equipment for ferries, and dry-docking of the icebreaker Botnica. Investments in the third quarter totalled EUR 8.8 million (the third quarter 2024: EUR 8.4 million).
