InPost is moving more packages. The problem is that not every parcel is arriving with a fat profit attached. The logistics group grew revenue and volumes fast in the first half, but margins got squeezed and profit guidance got cut. Growth is still there. The delivery bill just got heavier.
InPost reported first-half revenue of €1.89 billion (about $2.2 billion), up 24% from a year earlier, after handling 740 million global shipments, a 23% increase.
Adjusted EBITDA was €457.5 million, barely above last year with growth of just 0.3%. That is the tension in the update: the parcel machine is running hotter, but the profit engine is not keeping pace.
International operations are now the bigger story. Markets outside Poland contributed 54% of total revenue, showing how far the company has moved beyond its home base. In the Eurozone, second-quarter shipment volumes rose 30% year on year to 101 million parcels, while revenue climbed 37.9% to €287.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA in the region rose almost 40%, helped by stronger business-to-consumer demand and a bigger locker network.
