The challenges facing the Danish logistics giant as it integrates Panalpina were evident in its first quarterly results since the $5 billion acquisition.

The chairman of DSV Panalpina says the company will concentrate on bringing Panalpina into the fold for 12-18 months, before its next acquisition, which may be aimed at strengthening its road business.

The recent acquisition of freight forwarder and logistics specialist Panalpina by DSV marks one of the few M&A deals that have occurred in the market over the last several years.

Danish logistics conglomerate DSV is now one of the world’s leading forwarders after completing the acquisition of Panalpina in August.

Acquisition of Panalpina creates one of the world’s largest transport and logistics companies.

Panalpina’s worse than expected results appear to be largely due to the company being picked off by its competitors as its customers wait to see how the merger with DSV shakes out.

Danish freight forwarder DSV has begun 2019 in the same groove as the previous five years, registering further growth in 2019 as the company anticipates a merger with its Swiss partner, Panalpina, later this year.

Panalpina reported $0.82 (Swiss Francs, or CHF) per share in earnings for the first quarter of 2019 compared to $0.72 CHF for the same period last year.

Danish logistics major DSV is acquiring Swiss rival Panalpina in a deal worth $4.6 billion, creating one of the world’s largest companies in logistics and freight forwarding.
