For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, Matson reported net income of $107.5 million, or $2.48 per diluted share compared with $67.1 million, or $1.55 per diluted share in 2019. Consolidated revenue for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020 was $1,683.2 million, compared with $1,662.4 million in 2019.

"Matson's businesses continued to perform well in the third quarter despite the ongoing challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic effects," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Matt Cox. "Our China service, consisting of the CLX and CLX+ services, was the primary driver of the increase in consolidated operating income year-over-year as a result of strong demand for our expedited ocean services and ongoing challenges in the transpacific air freight markets. I am confident that we can make the CLX+ a permanent service because of Matson's fifteen-year track record of operating our industry leading expedited CLX service in the transpacific tradelane, the introduction of our new Alaska-to-Asia Express (AAX) service for Alaska seafood exports to Asia as part of the CLX+ westbound return trip to China, and the likelihood of continued favorable transpacific tradelane supply and demand dynamics going forward."

Mr. Cox added, "In our other core tradelanes, we saw an improvement in freight volume in each of the tradelanes from the levels achieved in the second quarter during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic as freight demand improved with the reopening of local economies. Hawaii volume approached the level achieved in the prior year quarter, although continued restrictions on tourism and a second shelter-in-place order in the latter half of the third quarter weighed on freight demand. In Alaska and Guam, we saw modestly higher year-over-year volume growth. Logistics operating income increased year-over-year as the continued reopening of the U.S. economy led to improved performance in all of the business lines. We also continued to achieve cost benefits from our previously-announced cost management initiatives. For the fourth quarter of 2020, we expect our businesses to continue to perform well and to generate strong financial results."

Third Quarter 2020 Discussion and Update on Business Conditions

Ocean Transportation: The Company's container volume in the Hawaii service in the third quarter 2020 was 0.8 percent lower year-over-year primarily due to lower volume from the state's COVID-19 mitigation efforts including restrictions on tourism and a second shelter-in-place order that took effect in August. The State of Hawaii recently eased visitor travel restrictions to the islands, but the levels of tourism are expected to remain low in the near-term and to have a meaningfully negative impact on Hawaii's economy.

In China, the Company's container volume in the third quarter 2020 was 124.7 percent higher year-over-year primarily due to volume from the CLX+ service in addition to higher volume on the CLX service as a result of increased capacity in the tradelane. Matson continued to realize a rate premium in the third quarter 2020 and achieved average freight rates that were higher than in the year ago period. The Company expects increased consumption of e-commerce and other commodities along with potential further disruption in air cargo markets to continue to provide opportunities for its CLX and CLX+ expedited ocean services.

In Guam, the Company's container volume in the third quarter 2020 was 2.1 percent higher primarily due to increased demand for home improvement and government cargo. In the near-term, we expect depressed tourism levels to have a negative impact on the Guam economy.

In Alaska, the Company's container volume for the third quarter 2020 increased 1.5 percent year-over-year primarily due to higher southbound volume as a result of stronger seafood volume compared to the prior year, partially offset by modestly lower northbound volume. The Alaska economy continues to recover from the second quarter low, but residual negative economic effects from the COVID-19 pandemic coupled with a low oil price environment is expected to have a negative impact on Alaska's economy in the near-term.

The contribution in the third quarter 2020 from the Company's SSAT joint venture investment was $7.7 million, or $0.7 million lower than the third quarter 2019. The decrease was primarily due to lower lift volume.

Logistics: In the third quarter 2020, operating income for the Company's Logistics segment was $11.9 million, or $0.6 million higher compared to the operating income achieved in the third quarter 2019. The increase was due primarily to improved performance in all of the business lines (i.e., transportation brokerage, freight forwarding, warehousing and distribution, and supply chain management and other services) driven by the continued reopening of the U.S. economy. In the near-term, we expect the elevated consumption of e-commerce and other high demand goods to benefit most of the business lines.

For the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company expects its businesses to continue to perform well and to generate strong financial results.

Ocean Transportation revenue increased $61.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared with the three months ended September 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to higher freight revenue in the China service, including revenue associated with the CLX+, partially offset by lower fuel-related surcharge revenue and lower revenue in the Hawaii service.

On a year-over-year FEU basis, Hawaii container volume decreased 0.8 percent primarily due to lower volume from the state's COVID-19 mitigation efforts including restrictions on tourism and a second shelter-in-place order that took effect in August; Alaska volume increased 1.5 percent primarily due to higher southbound volume as a result of stronger seafood volume compared to the prior year, partially offset by modestly lower northbound volume; China volume was 124.7 percent higher primarily due to volume from the CLX+ service in addition to higher volume on the CLX service as a result of Matson's increased capacity in the tradelane; Guam volume was 2.1 percent higher primarily due to increased demand for home improvement and government cargo; and Other containers volume increased 4.5 percent.

Ocean Transportation operating income increased $42.6 million, or 97.0 percent, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared with the three months ended September 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to a higher contribution from the China service, including the contribution from the CLX+, lower vessel operating costs, including the impact of one less vessel operating in the Hawaii service, and the timing of fuel-related surcharge collections, partially offset by a lower contribution from the Hawaii service and higher general and administrative expenses.

The Company's SSAT terminal joint venture investment contributed $7.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to a contribution of $8.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to lower lift volume.

Ocean Transportation revenue increased $59.5 million, or 4.8 percent, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to higher freight revenue in the China service, including revenue associated with the CLX+, partially offset by lower revenue in the Hawaii service and lower fuel-related surcharge revenue.

On a year-over-year FEU basis, Hawaii container volume decreased 1.1 percent primarily due to lower volume as a result of the state's COVID-19 mitigation efforts including restrictions on tourism, partially offset by volume associated with the dry-docking of one of Pasha's vessels; Alaska volume increased by 0.7 percent primarily due to higher northbound volume, including volume associated with the dry-docking of a competitor's vessel, partially offset by modestly lower southbound volume; China volume was 66.7 percent higher primarily due to volume from the CLX+ service; Guam volume was 4.8 percent lower primarily due to lower demand for retail-related goods resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and its related effects; and Other container volume decreased 0.8 percent.

Ocean Transportation operating income increased $63.7 million, or 87.3 percent, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to a higher contribution from the China service, including the contribution from the CLX+, and lower vessel operating costs, including the impact of one less vessel operating in the Hawaii service, partially offset by a lower contribution from the Hawaii service.

The Company's SSAT terminal joint venture investment contributed $15.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to a contribution of $17.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease was largely attributable to lower lift volume.
