MATSON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANICAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Matson, Inc., a holding company incorporated in January 2012 in the State of Hawaii, and its subsidiaries (“Matson” or the “Company”), is a leading provider of ocean transportation and logistics services. The Company consists of two segments, Ocean Transportation and Logistics:

Ocean Transportation: Matson’s Ocean Transportation business is conducted through Matson Navigation Company, Inc. (“MatNav”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Matson, Inc. Founded in 1882, MatNav provides a vital lifeline of ocean freight transportation services to the domestic non-contiguous economies of Hawaii, Alaska, and Guam, and to other island economies in Micronesia. MatNav also operates a premium, expedited service from China to Long Beach, California, and also provides services to Okinawa, Japan and various islands in the South Pacific. In addition, subsidiaries of MatNav provide container stevedoring, refrigerated cargo services, inland transportation and other terminal services for MatNav and other ocean carriers on the Hawaiian Islands of Oahu, Hawaii, Maui and Kauai, and in the Alaska locations of Anchorage, Kodiak and Dutch Harbor.

Matson has a 35 percent ownership interest in SSA Terminals, LLC (“SSAT”), a joint venture between Matson Ventures, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MatNav, and SSA Ventures, Inc., a subsidiary of Carrix, Inc. SSAT provides terminal and stevedoring services to various carriers at eight terminal facilities on the U.S. West Coast, including four facilities which are used by MatNav (“Terminal Joint Venture”). Matson records its share of net income from SSAT in costs and expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, and within the Ocean Transportation segment due to the nature of SSAT’s operations.

Logistics: Matson’s Logistics business is conducted through Matson Logistics, Inc. (“Matson Logistics”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of MatNav. Established in 1987, Matson Logistics is an asset-light business that provides a variety of logistic services to its customers including: (i) multimodal transportation brokerage of domestic and international rail intermodal service, long-haul and regional highway trucking services, specialized hauling, flat-bed and project services, less-than-truckload services, and expedited freight services (collectively “Transportation Brokerage” services); (ii) less-than-container load (“LCL”) consolidation and freight forwarding services (collectively “Freight Forwarding” services); (iii) warehousing and distribution services; and (iv) supply chain management, non-vessel operating common carrier (NVOCC) freight forwarding and other services.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation: The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited, and include the accounts of Matson and all wholly-owned subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany amounts and transactions. Significant investments in businesses, partnerships, and limited liability companies in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but has the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method. A controlling financial interest is one in which the Company has a majority voting interest or one in which the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The Company accounts for its investment in the Terminal Joint Venture using the equity method of accounting.

Due to the nature of the Company’s operations, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim periods, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 4, 2019.

Table of Contents

Fiscal Period: The period end for Matson covered by this report is June 30, 2019. The period end for MatNav and its subsidiaries covered by this report occurred on the last Friday in June, or June 28, 2019, for the second quarter 2019.

Significant Accounting Policies: The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Leases: The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases (“ASC 842”) on January 1, 2019. ASC 842 requires lessees to record leases on their balance sheets but recognize the expenses in their income statements in a manner similar to current practice. ASC 842 states that a lessee would recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments, and a right-of-use asset for the underlying leased asset for the period of the lease term. Refer to Note 7 for additional information on the Company’s adoption of ASC 842 and other lease related disclosures.

Recognition of Revenues and Related Costs: Revenue in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is presented net of elimination of intercompany transactions. The following is a description of the Company’s principal revenue generating activities by segment, and the Company’s revenue recognition policy for each activity:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
Ocean Transportation (in millions) (1)	2019		2018		2019		2018
Ocean Transportation services	$	406.6	$	397.3	$	794.5	$	766.1
Terminal and other related services		4.8		5.0		11.5		11.2
Fuel sales		2.6		2.5		4.6		5.1
Vessel management and related services		1.4		1.8		2.7		3.5
Total	$	415.4	$	406.6	$	813.3	$	785.9

(1)	Ocean Transportation revenue transactions are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars except for less than 3 percent of Ocean Transportation revenues and fuel sales revenue categories which are denominated in foreign currencies.

◾

Ocean Transportation services revenue is recognized ratably over the duration of a voyage based on the relative transit time completed in each reporting period. Vessel operating costs and other ocean transportation operating costs, such as terminal operating overhead and general and administrative expenses, are charged to operating costs as incurred.

◾	Terminal and other related services revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Related costs are recognized as incurred.

◾	Fuel sales revenue and related costs are recognized when the Company has completed delivery of the product to the customer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract.

◾	Vessel management and related services revenue is recognized in proportion to the services completed. Related costs are recognized as incurred.


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
Logistics (in millions) (1)	2019		2018		2019		2018
Transportation Brokerage and Freight Forwarding services	$	134.7	$	143.0	$	261.1	$	267.5
Warehouse and distribution services		5.3		4.2		10.6		8.8
Supply chain management and other services		2.5		3.3		5.3		6.3
Total	$	142.5	$	150.5	$	277.0	$	282.6

(1)	Logistics revenue transactions are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars except for less than 3 percent of transportation brokerage and freight forwarding services revenue, and supply chain management and other services revenue categories which are denominated in foreign currencies.

◾

Transportation Brokerage and Freight Forwarding services revenue consists of amounts billed to customers for services provided. The primary costs include third-party purchased transportation services, labor and equipment costs. Revenue and the related purchased third-party transportation costs are recognized over the duration of a delivery based upon the relative transit time completed in each reporting period. Labor and other operating costs are expensed as incurred. The Company reports revenue on a gross basis as the Company serves as the principal in these transactions because it is responsible for fulfilling the contractual arrangements with the customer and has latitude in establishing prices.

Table of Contents

◾

Warehousing and distribution services revenue consist of amounts billed to customers for storage, handling, and value-added packaging of customer merchandise. Storage revenue is recognized in the month the service is provided to the customer. Storage related costs are recognized as incurred. Other warehousing and distribution services revenue and related costs are recognized in proportion to the services performed.

◾	Supply chain management and other services revenues, and related costs are recognized in proportion to the services performed.

The Company generally invoices its customers at the commencement of the voyage or the transportation service being provided, or as other services are being performed. Revenue is deferred when services are invoiced in advance to the customer. The Company’s receivables are classified as short-term as collection terms are for periods of less than one year. The Company expenses sales commissions and contract acquisition costs as incurred because the amounts are generally immaterial. These expenses are included in selling, general and administration expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

Capital Construction Fund: The Company’s Capital Construction Fund (“CCF”) is described in Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $1.7 million and $1.0 million of eligible accounts receivable were assigned to the CCF, respectively. Due to the nature of the assignment of eligible accounts receivable into the CCF, such assigned amounts are classified as part of accounts receivable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash on deposit in the CCF is held in a money market account and classified as a long-term asset in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as the Company intends to use qualified cash withdrawals to fund long-term investment in the construction of new vessels. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company deposited $13.0 million and $26.4 million into the CCF respectively, and made qualifying cash withdrawals of $13.0 million and $26.4 million from the CCF respectively. The balance of cash on deposit at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was nominal.

Investment in Terminal Joint Venture: The Company’s investment in SSAT was $86.7 million and $87.0 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Condensed income statement information (unaudited) for the Terminal Joint Venture for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 consisted of the following:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
(In millions)	2019		2018		2019		2018
Operating revenue	$	268.8	$	266.1	$	536.9	$	517.0
Operating costs and expenses		(265.0)		(240.4)		(509.2)		(460.1)
Operating income		3.8		25.7		27.7		56.9
Net Income (1)	$	4.2	$	24.3	$	26.8	$	55.0
Company Share of SSAT's Net Income (2)	$	0.9	$	9.1	$	9.4	$	19.6

(1)	Includes earnings from equity method investments held by SSAT less earnings allocated to non-controlling interests.

(2)	The Company records its share of net income from SSAT in costs and expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income due to the nature of SSAT’s operations.

Income Taxes: In connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”), the Company recorded a non-cash tax adjustment of $0.2 million that decreased income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and $3.1 million that increased income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2018. These adjustments related to the application of an estimated 6.2 percent sequestration on alternative minimum tax (AMT) refunds due to the Company, and was based on guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and emerging interpretations of the Tax Act during that period. On January 19, 2019, the IRS issued new guidance indicating that sequestration would not apply to refundable AMT credits. In accordance with this new guidance, the Company recorded a non-cash tax adjustment of $2.9 million that decreased income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019. No amount impacted income taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

The Company continues to assess the impact of the Tax Act, related interpretations and other tax legislation, when issued, on the Company’s income tax estimates. These and other factors could materially affect the Company’s financial condition or its future operating results.

Contingencies: Environmental Matters: The Company’s Ocean Transportation business has certain risks that could result in expenditures for environmental remediation. The Company believes that based on all information available to it, the Company is currently in compliance, in all material respects, with applicable environmental laws and regulations.

Other Matters: The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to, or may be contingently liable in connection with other legal actions arising in the normal course of their businesses, the outcomes of which, in the opinion of management after consultation with counsel, would not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Dividends: The Company’s second quarter 2019 cash dividend of $0.21 per share was paid on June 6, 2019. On June 14, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.22 per share payable on September 5, 2019.

New Accounting Pronouncements: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”): In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13 which amends the current approach to estimate credit losses on certain financial assets, including trade and other receivables, available-for-sale securities and other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires entities to establish a valuation allowance for the expected lifetime losses of certain financial instruments. Subsequent changes in the valuation allowance are recorded in current earnings and reversal of previous losses is permitted. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating this new standard, but does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

Reportable segments are components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer.

The Company consists of two reportable segments, Ocean Transportation and Logistics, which are further described in Note 1. Reportable segments are measured based on operating income, exclusive of interest expense and income taxes. In arrangements where the customer purchases ocean transportation and logistics services, the revenues are allocated to each reportable segment based upon the contractual amounts for each type of service. The Company’s Terminal Joint Venture segment has been aggregated into the Company’s Ocean Transportation segment due to the operations of the Terminal Joint Venture being an integral part of the Company’s Ocean Transportation business.

The Company’s Ocean Transportation segment provides ocean transportation services to the Logistics segment, and the Logistics segment provides logistics services to the Ocean Transportation segment. Accordingly, inter-segment revenue of $25.3 million and $26.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and $47.1 million and $45.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, have been eliminated from operating revenue in the table below.

7. LEASES

New Lease Accounting Standard: The Company adopted the new lease accounting standard Leases ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, and made the following elections:

◾

Applied the transition requirements that resulted in a cumulative-effect adjustment of $4.4 million recorded to retained earnings at January 1, 2019, due to the elimination of deferred gains from the Company’s sale and leaseback transactions recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018;

◾	Elected to apply the package of practical expedient permitted under the transition guidance which allows, among other things, the historical lease classification and initial direct costs to be carried forward;

◾	Elected the short-term lease exception which allows the Company to exclude leases with an initial term of one year or less from recognition on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets;

◾	Elected to separate non-lease components by underlying asset class for real estate and terminal leases and operations equipment leases; and

◾	Elected to use a portfolio approach in applying discount rates to leases based upon the lease terms in the following categories: (i) one to five years; (ii) six to ten years; (iii) eleven to fifteen years; and (iv) sixteen years and greater, regardless of the type of underlying asset class.

Upon adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset of approximately $251.4 million, a corresponding operating lease liability of $259.1 million. As part of the adoption, the Company recorded a net adjustment to retained earnings of $4.4 million. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s current earnings, liquidity or existing debt covenant requirements. Significant assumptions and judgments made in applying the new lease accounting standard include determining the Company’s incremental borrowing rate and evaluating the probability of exercising lease options.

Description of Operating Leases: The Company has a variety of different types of operating leases, the specific terms and conditions of which vary from lease to lease. Certain operating lease agreements include terms such as: (i) renewal and early termination options; (ii) early buy-out and purchase options; and (iii) rent escalation clauses. The lease agreements also include provisions for the maintenance of the leased asset and payment of lease related costs. The Company reviews the specific terms and conditions of each lease and, as appropriate, notifies the lessor of any intent to exercise any option in accordance with the terms of the lease. In the normal course of business, the Company expects to be able to renew or replace most of its operating leases by other similar leases as they expire. Except for the residual value guarantee described below, the Company’s leases do not contain any other residual value guarantees.

The Company’s sub-lease income was nominal to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company did not have any finance leases during the six months ended June 30, 2019. Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include rental payments that may be adjusted in the future based on economic conditions and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Variable lease expense is disclosed for the adjusted portion of such payments.

The lease type by underlying asset class and maximum terms of the Company’s operating leases are as follows:


Lease Type:		Life
Real estate and terminal leases		65 years
Vessel charter leases		10 years
Operations equipment and other leases		8 years

Incremental Borrowing Rate: As most of the Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the date of adoption and subsequent lease commencement dates in calculating the present value of its operating lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate is determined using the U.S. Treasury rate adjusted to account for the Company’s credit rating and the collateralized nature of operating leases.

The base term of the Charter is five years with a two year end-of-term renewal option. The Charter also includes a maximum residual value guarantee amount of $50.9 million after five years, or $47.7 million after the extended term. The residual value guarantee is excluded from operating lease liabilities described above as the Company determined that it is not probable that any portion of the residual value guarantee will be paid by the Company.

9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company values its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy of valuation techniques for fair value measurements. Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. If the technique used to measure fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy, the lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy.

The Company uses Level 1 inputs for the fair values of its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, and Level 2 inputs for its variable and fixed rate debt. The fair values of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, and variable rate debt approximate their carrying values due to the nature of the instruments. The fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt is calculated based upon interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company’s existing debt arrangements.

Table of Contents

The carrying value and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are as follows:


					Quoted Prices in		Significant		Significant
	Total				Active Markets		Observable		Unobservable
	Carrying Value		Total		(Level 1)		Inputs (Level 2)		Inputs (Level 3)

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of unexercised non-qualified stock options and non-vested restricted stock units. The denominator used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, are as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30, 2019					Six Months Ended June 30, 2019
			Weighted	Per				Weighted	Per
			Average	Common				Average	Common
	Net		Common	Share		Net		Common	Share
(In millions, except per share amounts)	Income		Shares	Amount		Income		Shares	Amount
Basic	$	18.4	42.8	$	0.43	$	30.9	42.8	$	0.72
Effect of Dilutive Securities			0.4		—			0.4		—
Diluted	$	18.4	43.2	$	0.43	$	30.9	43.2	$	0.72


	Three Months Ended June 30, 2018					Six Months Ended June 30, 2018
			Weighted	Per				Weighted	Per
			Average	Common				Average	Common
	Net		Common	Share		Net		Common	Share
(In millions, except per share amounts)	Income		Shares	Amount		Income		Shares	Amount
Basic	$	32.6	42.7	$	0.76	$	46.8	42.6	$	1.10
Effect of Dilutive Securities			0.3		—			0.3		(0.01)
Diluted	$	32.6	43.0	$	0.76	$	46.8	42.9	$	1.09

The computation of weighted-average common shares outstanding excludes a nominal amount of anti-dilutive non-qualified stock options for each period ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

11. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company granted approximately 21,000 and 359,000 in total of time-based restricted stock units and performance-based shares to certain of its employees at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $38.36 and $33.59, respectively.

Total share-based compensation cost recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses was $3.0 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and $6.2 million and $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements was $18.8 million at June 30, 2019, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Ocean Transportation: The Company’s container volume in the Hawaii service in the second quarter 2019 was 2.3 percent lower year-over-year primarily due to negative container market growth. The GDP of the Hawaii economy continues to grow, albeit at a slowing pace; however, containerized freight market volume has not been keeping pace with GDP growth. The Company expects volume in 2019 to be lower than the level achieved in 2018, reflecting less containerized freight volume in Hawaii and stable market share.

In China, the Company’s container volume in the second quarter 2019 was 2.5 percent higher year-over-year. Matson continued to realize a sizeable rate premium in the second quarter 2019 and achieved average freight rates moderately higher than the second quarter 2018. For the second half of 2019, the Company expects volume to be lower than the prior year as volume normalizes to a traditional level of activity relative to the strong level achieved in the second half of 2018 resulting from the U.S.-China trade situation. For the full year 2019, the Company expects average freight rates to approach the levels achieved in 2018.

In Guam, the Company’s container volume in the second quarter 2019 was flat on a year-over-year basis. For 2019, the Company expects volume to approximate the level achieved last year and expects the highly competitive environment to remain.

In Alaska, the Company’s container volume for the second quarter 2019 was 8.0 percent higher year-over-year, primarily due to the timing of two additional northbound sailings. For 2019, the Company expects volume to be moderately higher than the level achieved in 2018 with higher northbound volume supported by improving economic conditions in Alaska and higher southbound seafood-related volume due to stronger seafood harvest levels than in 2018.

The contribution in the second quarter 2019 from the Company’s SSAT joint venture investment was $8.2 million lower than the second quarter 2018 primarily due to additional expense related to the early adoption of the new lease accounting standard in the quarter and higher terminal operating costs. Compared to our previous outlook, we expect approximately $5.8 million in lease-related costs to reverse and be a benefit to SSAT’s results in the second half of 2019. For 2019, the Company expects the contribution from SSAT to be lower primarily due to higher terminal operating costs, partially offset by higher lift volume.

As a result of the first half performance and the outlook trends noted above, the Company expects full year 2019 Ocean Transportation operating income to be approximately 20 percent lower than the $131.1 million achieved in 2018 after taking into account a full year net operating expense impact of $7.2 million associated with the sale and leaseback of MV Maunalei. In the third quarter 2019, the Company expects Ocean Transportation operating income to be moderately lower than the level achieved in the third quarter 2018.

Logistics: In the second quarter 2019, operating income for the Company’s Logistics segment was $1.8 million higher compared to the operating income achieved in the second quarter 2018 due to higher contributions across all of the service lines. For 2019, the Company is raising its outlook and expects Logistics operating income to be approximately 10-15 percent higher than the level achieved in 2018 of $32.7 million. In the third quarter 2019, the Company expects operating income to approximate the level achieved in the third quarter 2018.

Depreciation and Amortization: For the full year 2019, the Company expects depreciation and amortization expense to be approximately $133 million, inclusive of dry-docking amortization of approximately $38 million. As a result of the previously announced scrubber program on six vessels, dry-dock amortization was accelerated on two vessels in the second quarter, which increased depreciation and amortization in the quarter by $1.4 million and is expected to increase depreciation and amortization for the full year 2019 by approximately $4.2 million.

EBITDA: The Company expects net income in 2019 to decline year-over-year and expects EBITDA in 2019 to be approximately $270 million.

Other Income (Expense): The Company expects full year 2019 other income (expense) to be approximately $2.7 million in income, which is attributable to other component costs related to the Company’s pension and post-retirement plans.

Interest Expense: The Company expects interest expense for the full year 2019 to be approximately $25 million.

Income Taxes: In the second quarter 2019, the Company’s effective tax rate was 28.4 percent. For the full year 2019, the Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 26.0 percent, which excludes a positive non-cash adjustment of $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2019 related to the reversal of an expense adjustment in 2018 arising from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Capital and Vessel Dry-docking Expenditures: For the second quarter 2019, the Company made other capital expenditure payments of $24.9 million, capitalized vessel construction expenditures of $9.7 million, and dry-docking payments of $3.7 million. For the full year 2019, the Company expects to make other capital expenditure payments, including maintenance capital expenditures, of approximately $100 million, vessel construction expenditures (including capitalized interest and owner’s items) of approximately $215 million, and dry-docking payments of approximately $20 million.

Changes in operating revenue, and operating costs and expenses are further described below in the Analysis of Operating Revenue and Income by Segment.

The increase in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, was due to a lower amount of capitalized interest associated with the new vessel construction.

Other income (expense) relates to the amortization of certain components of net periodic benefit costs or gains related to the Company’s pension and post-retirement plans.

Income tax expense was $7.3 million or 28.4 percent of income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $8.8 million or 21.3 percent of income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2018 benefited from certain discrete tax adjustments that lowered the effective tax rate for that period. Excluding the impact of these discrete tax adjustments, the adjusted effective tax rate would be 26.1 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was impacted by higher foreign taxes paid during the period.

Changes in operating revenue, and operating costs and expenses are further described below in the Analysis of Operating Revenue and Income by Segment.

The increase in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018, was due to higher interest rates on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and a lower amount of capitalized interest associated with the new vessel construction.

Other income (expense) relates to the amortization of certain components of net periodic benefit costs or gains related to the Company’s pension and post-retirement plans.

Table of Contents

Income tax expense was $8.3 million or 21.2 percent of income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $19.1 million or 29.0 percent of income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2018. In connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Tax Act”), the Company recorded a non-cash tax adjustment of $3.1 million that increased the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This adjustment related to the application of an estimated 6.2 percent sequestration on alternative minimum tax (AMT) refunds due to the Company for the years 2018 to 2021, and was based on guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and emerging interpretations of the Tax Act during that period. On January 19, 2019, the IRS issued new guidance indicating that sequestration would not apply to refundable AMT credits. In accordance with this new guidance, the Company recorded a non-cash tax adjustment of $2.9 million that decreased income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018 benefited from certain tax adjustments that lowered the effective tax rate.

Excluding the impact of these discrete tax adjustments, the adjusted effective tax rate would be 28.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 26.3 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was also impacted by higher foreign taxes paid during the period.

Ocean Transportation revenue increased $8.8 million, or 2.2 percent, during the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to higher freight revenue in Alaska, higher fuel surcharge revenue and higher average rates in China, partially offset by lower container volume in Hawaii.

On a year-over-year FEU basis, Hawaii container volume decreased 2.3 percent primarily due to negative container market growth; Alaska volume increased by 8.0 percent primarily due to the timing of two additional northbound sailings; China volume was 2.5 percent higher; Guam volume was flat; and Other container volume increased 29.7 percent primarily due to the South Pacific and Okinawa services.

Ocean Transportation operating income decreased $16.8 million, or 46.0 percent, during the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to higher vessel operating costs (including MV Maunalei lease expense), a lower contribution from SSAT, higher terminal handling costs and lower volume in Hawaii, partially offset by a higher contribution from the Alaska service and higher average rates in China.

The Company’s SSAT terminal joint venture investment contributed $0.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to a contribution of $9.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease
