| 3 Second Quarter 2024 Earnings Conference Call Opening Remarks • Our Ocean Transportation and Logistics business segments performed well with higher YoY operating income in 2Q24 • Ocean Transportation 2Q24: – Our China service experienced significantly higher YoY freight rates and was the primary driver of the increase in consolidated operating income – Higher YoY volumes in Alaska primarily due to two additional northbound sailings – Hawaii and Guam saw lower YoY volumes • Logistics 2Q24: – Operating income increased YoY on the strength of supply chain management • Raising outlook for 2024 driven primarily by China service performance

| 4 Second Quarter 2024 Earnings Conference Call Hawaii Service Second Quarter 2024 Performance • Container volume decreased 3.6% YoY due to lower general demand • Tourist arrivals in 2Q24 were lower YoY – Maui tourism remains impacted by last year’s wildfires Container Volume (FEU Basis) 25,000 27,000 29,000 31,000 33,000 35,000 37,000 39,000 41,000 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 2023 2024 (3.6)% Full Year 2024 Outlook • Expect volume in 2024 to be modestly lower than the level achieved last year primarily due to: – Challenging population growth – Lower discretionary income as a result of higher inflation and interest rates

| 7 Second Quarter 2024 Earnings Conference Call China Service – Current Business Trends • A supportive economic and consumer demand environment in the U.S. coupled with tighter supply chain conditions led to elevated freight rates for our expedited Transpacific services in 2Q24 – Supply and demand dynamics in 2Q24 were not consistent with a normalized operating environment and we outperformed on freight rates • We expect our China service to continue to see elevated freight rates during the traditional peak season in 3Q24 and early 4Q24 – Freight rate trajectory after the peak season is uncertain given several factors including: • Strength of U.S. economy and interest rates, Transpacific supply, the Red Sea situation and related supply chain effects, the East Coast labor union negotiations and the U.S. elections • We expect freight rates to remain elevated as long as the underlying economic, supply chain, and geopolitical conditions persist – Timing of when rates will eventually normalize likely depends on the duration and timing of these factors that influence supply and demand dynamics in the tradelane • Regardless of this uncertainty, we expect the shift from air freight to expedited ocean and the continued growth of e-commerce goods to drive long-term demand for our China service
