The Company Plans To Report Earnings on May 26, 2026

BARCELONA, Spain, April 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Freightos Limited (NASDAQ:CRGO), the leading vendor-neutral global freight pricing, booking and procurement platform, today reported preliminary key performance indicators for the first quarter of 2026.

These operational KPIs primarily reflect platform activity. Freightos' strategy is focused on scaling its solutions and software offerings, which represent the majority of revenue and are less directly reflected in these metrics, while supporting deeper utilization across the platform. Solutions progress will be discussed in the upcoming earnings release.

Platform Expansion and Network Growth

Transactions: Q1 2026 transactions totaled 425k, up 15% year-over-year and below management's expectations, reflecting reduced activity in Middle East routes amid ongoing military conflict and disruption to major international shipping and air corridors. Excluding routes involving Middle East origin, destination or airspace, transactions grew year-over-year at a rate above management expectations, reflecting continued growth across other regions and increased use of alternative routing.
Carrier and Buyer Growth: Our active carrier network maintained its record level of 79 carriers in Q1 2026, up from 77 in Q4 2025. Unique buyer users declined slightly on a sequential basis to approximately 20,600, reflecting the reduced activity in the Middle East, but was up approximately 5% year over year.
Gross Booking Value (GBV): The total value of transactions processed on the Freightos platform, or GBV, reached $344M for Q1 2026 up 24% from Q1 last year. GBV met management expectations as elevated freight rates as a result of capacity constraints due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East compensated for the transaction shortfall. Once again, the largest contributor from an absolute perspective was the Webcargo portal.

"Facilitating 425 thousand transactions during the quarter shows that global logistics companies continue to rely on the Freightos platform to weather volatility," said Pablo Pinillos, CEO and Interim CFO of Freightos. "At a time of a regional crisis, our platform played a key role in helping reallocate volumes to new carrier-route combinations. Our focus remains on scaling solutions adoption and executing toward profitability. We view platform activity as a lagging indicator of workflow adoption, with deeper utilization supporting long-term transaction growth."

Glossary

We have provided below a glossary of certain terms used in this press release:

Carriers: Number of unique air and ocean carriers, mostly airlines, that have been sellers of transactions. For airlines, we count booking carriers, which include separate airlines within the same carrier group. We do not count dozens of other airlines that operate individual segments of air cargo transactions, as we do not have a direct booking relationship with them. Carriers include ocean less-than-container load (LCL) consolidators. In addition, we only count carriers when more than five bookings were placed with them over the course of a calendar quarter.
Unique buyer users: Number of individual users placing bookings, typically counted based on unique email logins. The number of buyers, which counts unique customer businesses, does not reflect the fact that some buyers are large multinational organizations while others are small or midsize businesses. Therefore, we find it more useful to monitor the number of unique buyer users than the number of buyer businesses.
GBV: Total value of transactions on the Freightos platform, which is the monetary value of freight and related services contracted between buyers and sellers on the Freightos platform, plus related fees charged to buyers and sellers, and pass-through payments such as duties. GBV is converted to U.S. dollars at the time of each transaction on the Freightos platform. This metric may be similar to what others call gross merchandise value (GMV) or gross services volume (GSV). We believe that this metric reflects the scale of the Freightos platform and our opportunities to generate platform revenue.
Transactions: Number of bookings for freight services, and related services, placed by Buyers across the Freightos platform with third-party sellers and with Clearit. Sellers of transactions include Carriers (that is, airlines, ocean liners and LCL consolidators) and also other providers of freight services such as trucking companies, freight forwarders, general sales agents, and air master loaders. The number of transactions booked on the Freightos platform in any given time period is net of transactions that were canceled prior to the end of the period. Transactions booked on white label portals hosted by Freightos are included if there is a transactional fee associated with them.
