Additionally, pre-tax profits rose by 7.3% reaching €53.0 million compared to €49.4 million in the same period of 2023. After-tax profits also saw a positive change, increasing by 4.4% to €40.4 million from €38.7 million in the first half of 2023.
The Chairman of PPA S.A., Mr. Lin Ji, expressed satisfaction with the company's increased revenue and profits in the first half of 2024.

However, our company and the Port of Piraeus continued to achieve strong results, sustaining our upward momentum, as we have consistently done over time. This is a clear testament to the soundness of our strategy and the dedicated efforts that have ensured the Port’s reliability and, above all, its resilience.”
