 <\/p>\n

China's shipbuilding industry has grown by leaps and bounds over the last year, and so have its profits. Last week, privately-held Yangzijiang Shipbuilding reported a record-setting profit of $580 million in the first half, up by 37 percent year-on-year. <\/p>\n

Yangzijiang is China's largest private shipbuilder, and a bellwether for its commercial shipbuilding industry. The yard's revenue was slightly down in the first half, due to a lower share of container ships in its mix of projects during the period. This was offset in part by a higher share of dual-fuel orders in its boxship portfolio, since the technology is more expensive and yields better margins for the shipbuilder. Dual-fuel vessel orders account for about three-quarters of the yard's orderbook. <\/p>\n

In addition to performance at its own yards, profits were driven in part by operations at two Japanese joint ventures, Zhoushan Tsuneishi Shipbuilding and Yangzi Mitsui Shipbuilding, which contributed a combined $67 million in profits.<\/p>\n

New orders are coming in a bit more slowly than expected this year, Yangzijiang reported. The shipbuilder received just 14 new orders worth a combined $540 million in the first half, less than a tenth of its full-year order target for 2025. However, the full-year outlook is still good, as it is holding more than $2 billion worth of letters of intent for more orders, according to ratings agency CGS International. <\/p>\n

This is not an immediate issue – Yangzijiang has a backlog of 236 ships worth a combined $23 billion on order, near a record high, giving it a long runway in almost any market – but the slowdown is a change compared to last year's ordering boom. The Trump administration's planned port fees on Chinese-built ships (as proposed by the U.S. Office of the Trade Representative) is giving shipowners a reason to look at alternative shipbuilders outside of China; at the same time, tariff concerns have prompted some owners to rethink their ordering plans or wait for more clarity. <\/p>\n

Yangzijiang broke ground on a wholly new shipyard, Yangzi Hongyuan<\/a>, in February 2025. However, it has shelved a plan for a greenfield expansion yard, Jiangsu Yangzi Runze Shipbuilding<\/a>, which was to be located next to the existing Yangzi Mitsui Shipbuilding JV facility, according to CGS International's latest advisory<\/a>. The pause is among the few signs of any letup in the relentless growth of Chinese shipbuilding. Since 2023, the strong demand for Chinese-built ships has driven a wave of restarts at yards that were shuttered during the shipbuilding downturn of the 2010s, reviving old names under new ownership. <\/p>\n
