HONG KONG, August 28, 2026: China International Marine Containers (Group) Co., Ltd. reported first-half 2026 revenue of RMB78.9 billion and net profit of RMB1.37 billion, as profitability from energy-related businesses continued to improve and offshore engineering orders reached a record high.
CIMC Group, listed under stock codes 000039.SZ and 02039.HK, said net profit attributable to shareholders and other equity holders of the company amounted to RMB740 million. Revenue in the second quarter rose 42% quarter-on-quarter to RMB46.25 billion, while net profit increased 133% quarter-on-quarter to RMB961 million.
The group said the first half was shaped by geopolitical shifts, changes in the energy and trade landscape, and resilient global merchandise trade. CIMC’s management said the company followed a strategy of “focusing on high-quality development and cultivating new growth drivers,” using its diversified business portfolio and global operating platform to offset fluctuations across individual regions. Overseas revenue accounted for 46.38%, while domestic revenue accounted for 53.62%.
Energy-Related Businesses Drive Profitability
CIMC said energy-related businesses were the main driver of improved earnings.

CIMC Raffles secured one FPSO and one FLNG EPCIC or EPC general contracting order during the year, making it the first offshore engineering enterprise in China with dual-project general contracting capabilities. The company said new orders accelerated in the third quarter, supported by rising demand for deepwater oil and gas production.
The offshore engineering business recorded revenue of RMB7.94 billion and net profit of RMB718 million, up 155.52% year-on-year. New offshore engineering orders reached US$3.2 billion, compared with US$106 million in the same period last year, while cumulative orders on hand hit a record US$7.62 billion.
