MPC Capital publishes nine-month key figures for 2021
- Further improvement in profitability
- Strong environment in container shipping leads to high earnings contributions
- Focus on expanding sustainable investment strategies
- Forecast for full year 2021 confirmed
Hamburg, November 18, 2021 - Hamburg-based investment manager and co-investor MPC Capital AG (Deutsche Börse Scale, ISIN DE000A1TNWJ4) has further significantly improved its profitability in the third quarter of 2021.
A solid market environment in the asset segments addressed by MPC Capital - real estate, shipping and renewable energies - led to a further stabilization of the earnings base. The sustained momentum in container shipping in particular provided a strong tailwind. In the Real Estate segment, MPC Capital benefited from high demand for sustainable residential projects in Germany. In the renewable energy sector, the investment vehicle MPC Energy Solutions, listed in Oslo since January, further expanded its development portfolio.
Ulf Holländer, CEO of MPC Capital AG: "Real assets are en vogue. And they play an important role in accompanying a successful energy transition. At the same time, we have successfully positioned MPC Capital in our asset segments, and we expect sustained, stable earnings from our shipping activities in particular over the next few years. This provides us with high visibility on our short to medium-term business development. We believe MPC Capital is ideally positioned to take advantage of additional opportunities arising from the energy transition for our investment strategies. The recently announced sale of our real estate activities in the Netherlands provides us with additional headroom to accelerate our growth in sustainable investments."
