Napier Port Holdings (NZNPHE0005S2) handled 250,000 TEU in the year ended September 30, 2026, while bulk cargo fell to 3.30 million tonnes, according to The Globe and Mail.

Container trade offsets bulk weakness

The annual volume mix points to a sharper split inside the port business. Container volumes were flat, but reefer exports rose 5.00 percent to 54,000 TEU, while bulk cargo declined 2.70 percent and bulk imports fell 7.20 percent.

Containerized exports increased 1.80 percent and imports rose 2.70 percent, helped by apple exports, meat shipments, paper products and fertilizer. The Globe and Mail also reported 289 container vessel calls during the year, while cruise calls fell to 55 from 78 a year earlier.

First-half profit sets the earnings base

Investing.com reported that revenue reached NZD 84.90 million in the first half of 2026, up 8.80 percent from the comparable period. Operating profit rose 12.50 percent to NZD 37.30 million, while basic net profit increased 21.50 percent to NZD 17.90 million.

The comparison matters because stronger container activity is helping offset weaker bulk and cruise throughput. For investors, the main operating question is whether higher-value cargo can continue to support earnings while construction-related imports and regional tourism remain softer.

Next report is November 18
