Freight forwarding giant DHL’s net income rose 11.9% y-o-y in 3Q 2025, reaching EUR 840 mn, according to an earnings release (pdf) published last week. The firm’s revenues slipped 2.3% y-o-y to EUR 20.1 bn in the same period, due to currency fluctuations and reduced traffic on US routes.

The financial year, so far: DHL’s bottom line surged 7.9% y-o-y to EUR 1.6 bn in 1H 2025, while its top line flagged 0.6% to record EUR 40.6 bn in the same period.

A promising outlook: DHL maintained its 2025 financial targets, namely its goal of reaching EUR 6 bn in operating gain, due to the new import regulations for low-value shipments. The US’s de minimis rule has so far had a limited impact on the company’s financials.
