PKP CARGO operational and financial developments

Overview

PKP CARGO, a company undergoing restructuring, has demonstrated significant commercial and financial activity in the first half of 2026.

In terms of operations, the company secured three agreements with Enea Wytwarzanie for the rail transport of 5 million tons of thermal coal from the Lubelski Węgiel Bogdanka mine. These contracts, valued at over 126 million PLN, are scheduled for implementation over a 21-month period.

Financially, the group reported a net profit of 117.8 million PLN for the first half of 2026, a substantial improvement from a loss of 17.9 million PLN during the same period the previous year. While revenues exceeded 1.84 billion PLN and operating profit rose by 242.8%, the company noted challenges including adverse weather impacting transport volumes and rising costs for energy, fuel, and railway infrastructure access.

By October 2026, the company’s restructuring process faced significant delays. Following a Warsaw court decision to transfer full management to an administrator due to a lack of agreement with creditors, the schedule for presenting debt repayment proposals was adjusted. This leadership shift resulted in the resignation of President Zbigniew Prus and two board members, with Monika Starecka appointed to temporarily perform presidential duties.
