for 2021
Sensitivity guidance
Financial performance for A.P. Moller - Maersk for the full year 2021 depends on several factors
and is subject to uncertainties related to COVID-19, bunker fuel prices and freight rates given the
uncertain macroeconomic conditions.
Given the current outlook and high degree of uncer-
tainty related to the continued impact from COVID-19
on the economic growth and global demand patterns,
A.P. Moller-Maersk expects for the full-year 2021:
.
Underlying EBITDA in the range of USD 8.5-10.5bn
compared to USD 8.3bn in 2020
Underlying EBIT in the range of USD 4.3-6.3bn
compared to USD 4.2bn in 2020
Free cash flow (FCF) above USD 3.5bn compared
to USD 4.6bn in 2020.
All else being equal, the sensitivities for the full year 2021 for four key assumptions are listed in
the table below:

As part of the full-year guidance for 2021,
A.P. Moller-Maersk expects the current exceptional
situation with the demand surge leading to bottle-
necks in the supply chain and equipment shortage,
which contributed by approximately USD 1.5bn to
EBIT in 2020, to continue in Q1 and normalise there-
after. Consequently, A.P. Moller - Maersk expects
profitability in Q1 2021 to be above Q4 2020.
Ocean is expected to grow in line with the global
container demand at an expected 3-5% in 2021,
with the highest growth seen in the first half-year.
For the years 2021-2022, the accumulated CAPEX
is still expected to be USD 4.5-5.5bn.
Underlying EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortisation adjusted for restructuring and integration costs.
Underlying EBIT is operating profit before interest and taxes adjusted
for restructuring and integration costs, net gains/losses from sale of
non-current assets and net impairment losses.
