Restructuring results in black figures


SBB Cargo earned CHF 12.9 million in 2018. Restructuring measures enabled the Swiss freight railway to steam back into the profit zone.

 

However, there were several one-off effects last year. For example, depreciation was lower because of the 2017 value adjustment, and rolling stock was sold. The freight operator’s situation is still critical as it will receive the last government subsidy, amounting to CHF 8 million, this year.

 

SBB Cargo has been an independent company since the beginning of 2019, and is now readying itself for negotiations with third parties interested in a partnership. SBB Cargo International grew its revenue to CHF 11.6 million and posted a profit of CHF 6.1 million in 2018. (ben)
