The company achieves a total revenue of US$5.50 billion, marking a 13.1% increase compared to the previous year. The core express delivery services account for the lion's share of this revenue, contributing US$5.34 billion.

The growth in parcel volume speaks volumes about J&T's operational prowess. The company reports a 27.0% increase in total parcel volume, which reaches 13.99 billion parcels.

Dylan Tey, CFO of J&T Express, attributes this remarkable growth to the company's strategic focus on cost optimization and service upgrades, which have proven effective in navigating a challenging macroeconomic environment. The results illustrate J&T's resilience in maintaining its leadership position in SEA while also expanding into new markets. This commitment to operational excellence and globalization strategies positions J&T Express for sustained growth and profitability, laying a strong foundation for future endeavors.
