DSV's quarterly operating profit rose to DKK 6.3bn, while the Schenker deal it is still absorbing pulled the half-year bottom line down

DKK 6,255m. That is the operating profit before special items DSV reported for the second quarter of 2026, up from DKK 4,725m a year earlier, in an interim report dated July 22. Quarterly revenue was DKK 76,688m. First-half revenue reached DKK 147,104m, up 42 percent from a year earlier, lifted by last year's purchase of Schenker, the German logistics business DSV bought in one of the largest deals the freight industry has seen. DSV is a freight forwarder, the middleman that books cargo space and does not own the ships or planes.

Not every line rose. First-half net profit fell to DKK 4,265m from DKK 5,168m, even as operating earnings grew. DSV narrowed its full-year target for operating profit before special items to a range of DKK 23,500m to 25,500m, lifting the floor of the range while holding the ceiling steady. Jens H. Lund, the chief executive, said the company delivered earnings growth despite the environment, and that the Schenker integration was supporting it.
