•
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our
financial results or prevent fraud.
Risks Relating to our Business
Our business has been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by pandemics, epidemics or other outbreaks of infectious diseases and governmental responses thereto.
Our operations are subject to risks related to pandemics, epidemics or other infectious disease outbreaks, which negatively affected economic conditions and the demand for shipping and
transportation services globally and within the Gulf of Mexico. As a result, our vessels may be unable to call on ports, or may be restricted from disembarking from ports, located in areas affected by epidemics. Further, such measures may
restrict our ability to conduct operations at our ports and terminals.
The extent to which our business, results of operations and financial condition may be negatively affected by future pandemics, epidemics or other outbreaks of infectious diseases is
highly uncertain and will depend on numerous evolving factors that we cannot predict, including, but not limited to (i) the duration and severity of the infectious disease outbreak; (ii) the imposition of restrictive measures to combat
the outbreak and slow disease transmission; (iii) the introduction of financial support measures to reduce the impact of the outbreak on the economy; (iv) volatility in the demand for and price of oil and gas; (v) shortages or reductions
in the supply of essential goods, services or labor; and (vi) fluctuations in general economic or financial conditions tied to the outbreak, such as a sharp increase in interest rates or reduction in the availability of credit. We cannot
predict the effect that an outbreak of a new COVID-19 variant or strain, or any future infectious disease outbreak, pandemic or epidemic may have on our business, results of operations and financial condition, which could be material and
adverse.
Uncertainties relating to our financial condition in our recent past and other factors raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and
could have resulted in our dissolution under Mexican corporate law.
In accordance with the Mexican Companies Act (Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles), when a company has accumulated losses in excess of
two-thirds of its capital stock, the dissolution of the company may be adopted by the shareholders of the company at an Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting called by the company’s board of directors upon the request of shareholders
representing at least 33% of the company’s capital stock. At the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting, the shareholders may vote to either dissolve the company or approve any corporate strategy for addressing the accumulated losses.
Additionally, the Mexican Bankruptcy Act (Ley de Concursos Mercantiles) provides that any third party with legal interest may request the judicial
authorities to declare the dissolution of the company. A third person is considered to have a legal interest to request dissolution if the person is a creditor of the company and (i) the company has failed continuously with its payment
obligations to the third person and the amount of the failure represents at least 35% of all the obligations of the company, and (ii) the company does not have sufficient assets to satisfy at least 80% of the payment obligations in
respect of which it has failed to make the required payments at the time of the request.
While the Company has generated net income in most recent fiscal years, its historical performance has been subject to certain variations driven by market conditions and specific events.
The Company's ability to continue as a going concern depends on its capacity to sustain adequate levels of profitability and, as the case may be, access financing on favorable terms. However, there can be no assurance that the Company
will continue to generate such net income or that it will obtain additional financing on the terms required.
If the time charter arrangements for the vessels we operate are terminated or expire, our business could be adversely affected.
As of the date of this Annual Report, we operate five offshore vessels on time charter to Petróleos Mexicanos, the national oil company of Mexico (“PEMEX”). In the event that these time
charter agreements are terminated or expire without being renewed, we will be required to seek new bareboat or time charter agreements for these vessels. We cannot assure that vessels currently under bareboat or time charter will be
available upon the expiration of their respective agreements, or that such agreements can be renewed on favorable terms. Furthermore, the rates applicable at the time of renewal could differ materially from those currently in effect. If
we are unable to obtain time charter or bareboat charter arrangements on terms acceptable to us, we may offer the services of such vessels in the spot market. Because spot market charter and lease rates are subject to greater fluctuation
than long-term time charter or bareboat charter rates, our inability to retain existing charter agreements or enter into comparable arrangements could adversely affect our operating results.
Our results from operations are dependent on fuel expenses.
Part of our vessel operations consume significant amounts of energy and fuel, the cost of which has fluctuated significantly worldwide in recent years. With respect to our other
operations, our customers pay for the fuel consumption. We currently meet, and expect to continue to meet, our fuel requirements through purchases from various suppliers at North American market prices. In addition, instability caused by
imbalances in the worldwide supply and demand of oil may result in increases in fuel prices. Through 2025, fuel expenditures represented a significant portion of our operating costs across our logistics and vessel operations, and given
the increase in fuel prices that cannot be hedged or passed through to the end users of our transportation services, we cannot assure that our operations will not be materially and adversely affected in the future should energy and fuel
costs continue to rise. For example, crude oil prices increased substantially during 2023 following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, before stabilizing in 2024, declining from over $100 to approximately $75–$80 per barrel, and averaging
$61.6 per barrel in 2025. However, in March 2026, international oil prices showed an upward trend amid geopolitical tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. During that period, the Brent and WTI benchmark blends reached peak prices of
approximately $118.4 and $98.71 per barrel, respectively, while the Mexican blend traded at approximately $99.21 per barrel. l
We may be unable to successfully expand our businesses.
Future growth of our businesses will depend on a number of factors, including:
•
the continued identification, evaluation and participation in niche markets;
•
the identification of joint venture opportunities or acquisition candidates;
•
our ability to enter into acquisitions on favorable terms;
•
our ability to finance the expansion and diversification of our business;
•
our ability to hire and train qualified personnel, and to maintain our existing managerial base; and
•
our ability to manage expansion effectively and to obtain required financing.
In order to maintain and improve operating results from new businesses, as well as our existing businesses, we will be required to manage our growth and expansion effectively. However,
the management of new businesses involves numerous risks, including difficulties in assimilating the operations and services of the new businesses, the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns and the disadvantage
of entering markets in which we may have no or limited direct or prior experience. Our failure to effectively manage our businesses could preclude our ability to expand our businesses and could have a material adverse effect on our
results of operations.
Significant competition could adversely affect our future financial performance.
Certain of our business segments face significant competition, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Our international and domestic maritime operations have faced significant competition, mainly from U.S., Mexican and other international shipping companies acting directly or through a
Mexican intermediary. In our ports, terminals, and logistics operations, our services have faced intense competition, including price competition, from a large number of U.S., Mexican, and other international companies. We cannot assure
you that we will not lose business in the future due to our inability to respond to competitive pressures by decreasing our prices without adversely affecting our gross margins and operational results.
Downturns in certain cyclical industries in which our customers operate could have adverse effects on our results of operations.
The shipping, ports and terminals, and logistics industries are highly cyclical, generally tracking the cycles of the world economy. Although transportation markets are affected by general economic
conditions, there are numerous specific factors within each particular market segment that may influence operating results. Some of our customers do business in industries that are highly cyclical, including the oil and gas and automotive
sectors. Also, some of the services we transport have had a historical pattern of price cyclicality, which has typically been influenced by the general economic environment and by industry capacity and demand. We cannot assure you that
prices and demand for these products will not decline in the future, adversely affecting those industries and, in turn, our financial results.
Grupo TMM is party to contracts with other parties as joint investors in subsidiaries with a joint venture.
Grupo TMM and certain third parties have invested in subsidiaries with joint ventures. Grupo TMM may enter into more contracts of this kind in the future. The business partners of Grupo
TMM in these subsidiaries may, at any moment, from an economic standpoint, have economic, commercial, and legal interests, or objectives that adjust to our interests or to those of the entity in which they have invested with us.
Additionally, the dividends that are distributed from the subsidiaries that Grupo TMM does not fully own, will be distributed according to the subsidiaries’ ownership interests. For these and other reasons, the controversies or conflicts
with the business partners with whom Grupo TMM has a strategic alliance or a relationship, may negatively affect its capacity to conduct its businesses and to receive distributions from the subsidiaries and obtain a profit from its
investments.
Over time, asset values may fluctuate substantially and, if these values are lower at a time when we are attempting to dispose of an asset, we may incur a loss.
The value of our assets may fluctuate substantially over time due to a number of different factors, including:
•
prevailing economic market conditions related to the asset;
•
a substantial or extended decline in world trade;
•
increases in the supply of vessel capacity;
•
increased port and terminal capacity;
•
prevailing charter rates;
•
restrictions arising from emergency public health measures; and
•
the cost of retrofitting or modifying existing ships and other assets as a result of technological advances, changes in applicable environmental or other regulations or standards.
In the future, if the market values of our assets deteriorate significantly, we may be required to record an impairment charge in our financial
statements, which could adversely affect our results of operations. If a vessel charter terminates, we may be unable to re-charter the vessel at an acceptable rate and, rather than continue to incur costs to maintain and finance the
asset, we may seek to dispose of it. Our inability to dispose of a vessel or other asset at a reasonable price could result in a loss on its sale and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Our future success depends upon the continued growth of and demand for the maritime, ports and terminals, and logistics industries which may have already achieved the
peak of their upward growth trend and for which rates may have already been at or near historical highs. These factors may lead to reductions and volatility in rates and profitability.
The maritime, ports and terminals, and logistics industries are cyclical and volatile in terms of rates and profitability. In the future, rates and demand for vessels and other equipment
and services may fluctuate as a result of changes in the size of and geographic location of supply and demand for oil and related products, as well as changes in the corresponding industry regulations. These and other factors affecting
the supply and demand for maritime, ports and terminals, and logistics services in general are outside of our control, and the nature, timing and degree of changes in industry conditions are unpredictable.
The factors that influence demand for our services include:
•
supply and demand for products suitable for shipping, ports and terminals, and logistics services;
•
changes in global production of products transported by vessels or for which we render other services;
•
the distance cargo products are to be moved by sea or land;
•
the globalization of manufacturing as well as the reconfiguration of supply chains, including trends such as nearshoring;
global and regional economic and political conditions;
•
changes in seaborne and other transportation patterns, including changes in the distances over which cargoes are transported;
•
environmental and other regulatory developments;
•
technological advancements;
•
currency exchange rates;
•
weather and natural disasters; and
•
global and regional public health developments.
The factors that influence our services capacity include:
•
the number of newbuilding vessel deliveries and the scrapping rate of similar vessels;
•
the Mexican foreign trade balance;
•
the price of steel and other raw materials;
•
changes in environmental and other regulations that may limit the useful life of vessels and other assets;
•
the number of vessels or other assets that are out of service;
•
port congestion; and
•
the existence of emergency public health measures that may require us to suspend or curtail some of our businesses.
Our ability to re-charter the vessels we operate upon the expiration or termination of their current charters and the charter rates payable under
any renewal or replacement charters will depend upon, among other things, the prevailing state of the charter market for vessels. If the charter market is depressed when vessels’ charters expire, we may be forced to re-charter the vessels
at reduced rates or even possibly a rate whereby we incur a loss, which may reduce our earnings or make our earnings volatile. The same issues will exist if we acquire additional vessels and attempt to obtain multi-year time charter
arrangements as part of our acquisition and financing plan. Similarly, in our ports and terminals and logistics divisions, our ability to renew or extend our services agreements will be subject to current market conditions and other
competitors.
Our growth depends on our ability to expand relationships with existing shipowners and other customers and to obtain new shipowners and customers, for which we will
face substantial competition.
Our principal objectives include acquiring and operating additional vessels in conjunction with entering into long-term, fixed-rate time charters for these ships, as well as entering into
new long-term service contracts for our ports and terminals and logistics businesses. The process of obtaining new long-term contracts is highly competitive and generally involves an intensive screening process and competitive bids, and
often extends for several months. Shipping charters and service contracts are awarded based upon a variety of factors relating to the contractor, including:
•
industry relationships and reputation for customer service and safety;
•
experience and quality operations (including cost effectiveness);
the ability to finance vessels and other assets at competitive rates and financial stability in general;
•
relationships with shipyards and the ability to get suitable facilities;
•
relationships with ship owners and the ability to obtain suitable second-hand vessels and equipment;
•
construction management experience, including the ability to obtain on-time delivery of new ships and other assets according to customer specifications;
•
willingness to accept operational risks pursuant to the charter or other services, as well as allowing termination for force majeure events, among others; and
•
competitiveness of the bid in terms of overall price.
We expect substantial competition from a number of experienced companies, including state-sponsored entities and major shipping, ports and terminals, and logistics companies. Some of
these competitors have significantly greater financial resources than we do, and can therefore operate larger fleets, provide additional services, and potentially offer better rates. This competition may cause greater price competition
for time charters and the other services we offer. As a result of these factors, we may be unable to expand our relationships with existing customers or to obtain new customers on a profitable basis, if at all, which would have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders.
The aging of the vessels we operate may result in increased operating costs in the future, which could adversely affect our earnings.
In general, the cost of maintaining a vessel in good operating condition increases with the age of the vessel. As the vessels we operate age, we will incur increased costs. Older vessels
are typically less fuel efficient and more costly to maintain than more recently constructed vessels. Cargo insurance rates also increase with the age of a vessel, making older vessels less desirable to charterers. Governmental
regulations and safety or other equipment standards related to the age of a vessel may also require expenditures for alterations or the addition of new equipment to vessels and may restrict the type of activities in which vessels may
engage. We cannot assure you that, as the vessels we operate age, market conditions will justify such expenditures or will enable us to profitably operate the vessels during the remainder of their expected useful lives.
Our results of operations may be adversely affected by operational risks inherent in the transportation and logistics industry.
The operation of vessels and other machinery relating to the shipping and cargo business involves an inherent risk of catastrophic marine disaster, mechanical failure, collisions,
property losses to vessels, piracy, cargo loss or damage and business interruption due to outbreaks of infectious diseases or political actions in Mexico and in foreign countries. In addition, the operation of any harbor and seagoing
vessel is subject to the inherent possibility of catastrophic marine disasters, including oil spills and other environmental accidents, and the liabilities arising from owning and operating vessels in international trade. Any such event
may result in a reduction of revenues or increased costs. The Company’s vessels are insured for their estimated value against damage or loss, including war, terrorism acts, and pollution risks and we also carry other insurance customary
in the industry.
We maintain insurance to cover the risk of partial or total loss of or damage to all of our assets including, but not limited to, harbor and seagoing vessels, port facilities, port
equipment, land facilities and offices. In particular, we maintain marine hull and machinery and war risk insurance on our vessels, which covers the risk of actual or constructive total loss. Additionally, we have protection and indemnity
insurance for damage caused by our operations to third persons. With certain exceptions, we do not carry insurance covering the loss of revenue resulting from a downturn in our operations or resulting from vessel off-hire time on certain
vessels. In certain instances, and depending on the ratio of insurance claims to insurance premiums paid, we may choose to self-insure our over-the-road equipment following prudent guidelines. We cannot assure you that our insurance would
be sufficient to cover the cost of damages suffered by us or damages to others, that any particular claim will be paid or that such insurance will continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates in the future.
Additionally, some shipping, ports and terminals, and logistics activities decrease substantially during periods of bad weather. Such adverse weather conditions can adversely affect our
results of operations and profitability if they occur with unusual intensity, during abnormal periods, or last longer than usual in our major markets.
Our operations are subject to extensive environmental and safety laws and regulations and we may incur costs that have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition as a result of our liabilities under or potential violations of environmental and safety laws and regulations.
Our operations are subject to general Mexican federal and state laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. The Mexican Attorney General for Environmental
Protection (ProcuraduríaFederal de Protección al Ambiente) is empowered to bring administrative and criminal proceedings and impose corrective actions and
economic sanctions against companies that violate environmental laws, and temporarily or permanently close non-complying facilities under the Mexican General Law of Ecological Balance and Environmental Protection (Ley General de
Equilibrio Ecológico y la Protección al Ambiente, or "LGEEPA"). The Mexican Ministry of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources (Secretaría del Medio Ambiente y RecursosNaturales or “SEMARNAT”) and other ministries have promulgated compliance standards for, among other things, water discharge, water supply, air emissions, noise pollution, hazardous substances
transportation and handling, and hazardous and solid waste generation. Under the environmental laws, the Mexican government has implemented a program to protect the environment by promulgating rules concerning water, land, air and noise
discharges or pollution, and the transportation and handling of wastes and hazardous substances.
We are also subject to the laws of various jurisdictions and international conferences with respect to the discharge of hazardous materials, waste and pollutants into the environment.
While we maintain insurance against certain of these environmental risks in an amount which we believe is consistent with amounts customarily obtained in accordance with industry norms,
we cannot assure you that our insurance will be sufficient to cover damages suffered by us or that insurance coverage will always be available for these possible damages. Furthermore, such insurance typically excludes coverage for fines
and penalties that may be levied for non-compliance with environmental laws and regulations.
We anticipate that the regulation of our business operations under federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations will increase and become more stringent over time. We cannot
predict the effect, if any, that the adoption of additional or more stringent environmental laws and regulations would have on our results of operations, cash flows, capital expenditure requirements or financial condition.
Our maritime operations provide transportation services for petrochemical products and refined clean and dirty petroleum products, respectively. See Item 4. “Information on the Company -
Business Overview - Maritime Operations.” Under the United States Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (“OPA” or “OPA 90”), responsible parties, including ship owners and operators, are subject to various requirements and could be exposed to
substantial liability, and in some cases unlimited liability, for removal costs and damages, including natural resource damages and a variety of other public and private damages resulting from the discharge of oil, petroleum or related
substances into the waters of the United States. In some jurisdictions, including the United States, claims for spill clean-up or removal costs and damages would enable claimants to immediately seize the ships of the owning and operating
company and sell them in satisfaction of a final judgment. The existence of comparable statutes enacted by individual states of the United States, but requiring different measures of compliance and liability, creates the potential for
similar claims being brought in the United States under state law. In addition, several other countries have adopted international conventions that impose liability for the discharge of pollutants similar to OPA. If a spill were to occur
in the course of operation of one of our vessels carrying petroleum products, and such spill affected the waters of the United States or another country that had enacted legislation similar to OPA, we could be exposed to substantial or
unlimited liability. Additionally, our vessels carry fuels that, if spilled, under certain conditions, could cause pollution and result in substantial claims against us, including claims under international laws and conventions, OPA and
other U.S. federal, state and local laws. Further, under OPA and similar international laws and conventions, we are required to satisfy insurance and financial responsibility requirements for potential oil spills and other pollution
incidents. Penalties for failure to maintain the financial responsibility requirements can be significant and can include the seizure of the vessel.
The vessels we operate must also meet stringent operational, maintenance and structural requirements, and they are subject to rigorous inspections by governmental authorities such as the
U.S. Coast Guard and other foreign authorities that have enacted legislation similar to the OPA for vessels operating in U.S. and foreign territorial waters. Non-compliance with these requirements could result in substantial fines,
penalties or other sanctions.
We could have liability with respect to contamination at third-party facilities in the United States where we have transported hazardous substances or waste under the U.S. Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA” or “Superfund”) and comparable state laws (known as state Superfund laws). CERCLA and the state Superfund laws impose joint and several liability for the cost of
investigation and remediation, natural resources damages, certain health studies and related costs, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons with respect to the release into the
environment of certain substances. These persons, commonly called “potentially responsible parties” or “PRPs,” include the current and certain prior owners or operators of and persons that arranged for the disposal or treatment of
hazardous substances at sites where a release has occurred or could occur. In addition, other potentially responsible parties, adjacent landowners or other third parties may initiate cost recovery actions or toxic tort litigation against
PRPs under CERCLA or state Superfund law or state common law.
The U.S. Clean Water Act imposes restrictions and strict controls regarding the discharge of wastes into the waters of the United States. The Clean Water Act and comparable state laws
provide for civil, criminal and administrative penalties for unauthorized discharges of pollutants. In the event of an unauthorized discharge of wastes or pollutants into waters of the United States, we may be liable for penalties and
could be subject to injunctive relief.
Potential labor disruptions could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to meet our obligations under our financing arrangements.
As of March 31, 2026, we had 642 employees, of whom approximately 7% were unionized. The compensation terms of the labor agreement with these employees are subject to renegotiation on an
annual basis and all other terms are renegotiated every two years. If we are not able to negotiate these provisions favorably, strikes, boycotts or other disruptions could occur, and these potential disruptions could have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and on our ability to meet our payment obligations under our financing arrangements.
In addition, in connection with the labor commitments included in the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (“USMCA”), the successor to the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”),
the Mexican government has implemented and continues to enforce significant structural labor reforms aimed at strengthening and safeguarding workers’ rights. These include, among other measures, the ratification of the International Labor
Organization’s Convention C098, the “Right to Organize and Collective Bargaining Convention”, and revisions to the Mexican Federal Labor Law (Ley Federal del Trabajo) aimed at prohibiting
discrimination and workplace harassment, establishing new labor courts and judicial protections for workers, enhancing the transparency of procedures for the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements, and ensuring the voting rights
of workers on matters such as union contracts and representation. These developments, together with substantial increases in Mexico’s general minimum wage, have spurred increased demands from workers and labor unions for salary and
benefit increases. We cannot predict how these developments may affect our business, results of operations or its financial condition. Any increased demands by our unionized workers may lead to higher labor costs, which could have a
negative impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Global geopolitical tensions, international armed conflicts and instability in critical hydrocarbon production and transit regions, particularly the Middle East,
Russia and Venezuela, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
During 2024 and 2025, global financial and commodities markets experienced significant volatility as a result of prolonged armed conflicts, international economic sanctions, disruptions
in supply chains and abrupt changes in energy prices. In particular, the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which began in February 2022 and remains ongoing as of the date of this report, as well as tensions and conflicts in the
Middle East —including those in the Red Sea region and the Strait of Hormuz that have affected critical maritime trade routes— have had direct and indirect effects on our operations. These developments have resulted in the following:
Volatility in fuel and energy prices. International prices for crude oil and marine fuels have experienced significant increases and fluctuations. During 2024 and 2025, we experienced material increases in fuel costs for our
maritime operations, which have pressured our operating margins, particularly under contracts where we are unable to fully pass through these increases to our customers.
•
Increases in vessel chartering costs. Global instability and disruptions in traditional shipping routes have led to increases in vessel charter and leasing rates in the international market, affecting our costs when additional
capacity is required or when renewing charter agreements.
•
Supply chain constraints. Economic sanctions imposed by the United States, the European Union and other countries against Russia—including the exclusion of certain Russian financial institutions from the SWIFT financial
messaging system—have caused disruptions in the availability and cost of spare parts, maritime equipment and other critical inputs necessary for the maintenance of our fleet and port infrastructure.
•
Uncertainty in demand for services. International tensions may affect global trade volumes, which could reduce demand for maritime transportation services, port logistics and storage services.
The continuation, escalation or emergence of additional armed conflicts could result in further economic deterioration, additional restrictions on cross-border commercial transportation
or the implementation of stricter security measures that may affect the global flow of goods. We continue to monitor these geopolitical developments and their potential impact on international markets. Any of these factors could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
Changes in trade policy by the United States or other countries could give rise to diplomatic tensions, including the imposition of new tariffs, regulations,
economic sanctions or protectionist measures that may directly affect logistics costs.
The administration of President Donald Trump, who began his second term in January 2025, has implemented and continues to evaluate a protectionist trade agenda that
includes the imposition of tariffs on products imported from Mexico, potential modifications to the operational terms of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (“USMCA”), and increased scrutiny of cross-border operations.
During 2025, we experienced material effects resulting from these trade policies, including:
•
Reduction in demand for automotive logistics services. The imposition of tariffs on Mexican vehicles and auto parts, together with regulatory uncertainty regarding rules of origin under the USMCA,
has contributed to a significant contraction in automotive sector activity in the Bajío region of Mexico. Several automotive manufacturing facilities in Aguascalientes, Guanajuato and surrounding states—which represent an
important portion of our customer base for logistics services—have announced temporary shutdowns, reduced shifts or permanent closures, negatively impacting volumes and demand for our container handling and automotive logistics
services.
•
Volatility in trade flows. Tariffs and the threat of additional measures have generated volatility in foreign trade flows between Mexico and the United States, our primary commercial corridor, which
affects the utilization of our operating capacity.
•
Pressure on operating margins. Volatility in the Mexican peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate, exacerbated by trade tensions, has increased the cost of critical imported inputs for our operations,
including steel used for vessel repairs, fuels, spare parts and technological equipment.
Additionally, one of the external risks we face relates to potential changes in executive orders issued by the U.S. government, particularly those related to
foreign trade, border security, international transportation and energy policies. During 2025, the U.S. government issued and continues to evaluate issuing new executive orders that may modify customs and inspection procedures at
ports of entry, increasing logistics times and costs; impose additional restrictions on certain types of cargo or products originating from Mexico; modify safety requirements and certifications for
vessels and maritime operators; or alter financing conditions or access to U.S. capital markets for Mexican companies. These developments may create regulatory uncertainty that complicates medium- and long-term strategic planning and
could substantially modify the operational and logistical conditions under which we operate.
Furthermore, trade disputes between the United States and China, as well as potential diplomatic tensions with other major trading partners, could indirectly affect our operations if they
result in reductions in global trade or the redirection of trade flows away from Mexican ports and maritime routes.
Additionally, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (“USMCA”) provides for a formal review of its provisions in July 2026. In light of the current environment of protectionist trade
policies promoted by the U.S. administration, there is uncertainty as to whether such review could result in modifications to rules of origin, dispute resolution mechanisms or market access conditions that could affect trade volumes
driving demand for our logistics, port and maritime transportation services. We cannot predict the outcome of such review or the impact it may have on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our information technology systems, like those of any other company, may be exposed to security incidents, unauthorized access or network connectivity
disruptions, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial condition, results of operations or reputation.
Our business operations rely on an information technology systems platform and communications networks that include technological infrastructure, software applications,
computer equipment and cloud-based services. Despite the implementation of controls and protective measures, these systems remain susceptible to cybersecurity incidents, operational failures, disruptions in local and/or global network
connectivity and other events beyond our control.
To mitigate these risks, we continue to strengthen our security measures through the implementation of technological and administrative controls, including the use of
infrastructure and specialized services from leading providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), as well as advanced threat protection, detection and filtering tools for email and devices through solutions such as Microsoft Defender for
Office 365. We also conduct internal awareness campaigns aimed at our employees regarding information security practices, including the prevention of social engineering attacks, secure information management and the periodic updating of
credentials.
In addition, we have implemented advanced protection mechanisms on computing devices that enable real-time monitoring and response to potential threats, as
well as remote management of software updates and security patches with the objective of maintaining our systems up to date and reducing vulnerabilities. We also maintain internal procedures for the identification of and response to
potential large-scale cyberattacks or attempts at unauthorized access, including the preventive blocking of accounts, event analysis and corrective actions to restore secure operating conditions.
Notwithstanding the measures implemented, we cannot guarantee that our systems, or those of third parties with whom we interact, will not be compromised or that
interruptions in technological services will not occur. Any significant incident could result in disruptions to our operations, loss or compromise of information, additional remediation costs, damage to our reputation or potential legal
liabilities.
Furthermore, the occurrence of cybersecurity-related incidents, or the perception by our customers of a potential disruption in the quality or continuity of our services,
could lead some customers to reduce or discontinue the use of our services, request different commercial terms or exercise contractual rights against us. Although we maintain contracts that establish rights and obligations for the
parties, we cannot assure that the enforcement or defense of such rights in court would always be practical, timely or economically favorable.
If any of these events were to occur, our revenues, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
Our customers may take actions that may reduce our revenues.
If our customers believe that our financial condition will result in a lower quality of service, they may discontinue use of our services. Additionally, some
customers may demand lower prices. While we have contracts with some of our customers that prevent them from terminating our services or which impose penalties on customers who terminate our services, it may be impractical or
uneconomical to enforce these agreements in Mexican courts. If any of these events occur, our revenues will be reduced.
Our financial statements may not be comparable to financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. accounting standards.
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS. IFRS differs from U.S. GAAP in certain significant respects, including, among others, the recognition of
revaluation of the property, the classification of minority interest in accordance with net identifiable assets, the nonrecognition of deferred employees’ profit sharing, consolidation of subsidiaries, the acquisition of shares of
subsidiaries from minority stockholders and the determination of deferred income taxes. For this and other reasons, the presentation of financial statements and reported earnings prepared in accordance with IFRS may differ in significant
respects from the presentation of financial statements and reported earnings prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Failure to company with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act could result in fines, criminal penalties and an adverse effect on our business.
We may operate in a number of countries around the world, including countries suspected to have a risk of corruption. We are committed to doing business in accordance with
applicable anti-corruption laws. We are subject to the risk that we or our directors, employees and agents may take actions determined to be in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or other anti-corruption laws. Any such
violation could result in substantial fines, sanctions, civil and/or criminal penalties, curtailment of operations in certain jurisdictions, and might adversely affect our business, earnings or financial condition. In addition, actual or
alleged violations could damage our reputation and ability to do business. Further, detecting, investigating, and resolving actual or alleged violations is expensive and can consume significant time and attention from our senior
management.
Changes in Mexico's Federal Judiciary could adversely affect the resolution of our legal proceedings and the institutional environment in which we
operate.
On September 11, 2024, Mexico's senate approved a sweeping constitutional reform meant to fundamentally reshape the country's judicial system, principally by having all
judges in the country be popularly elected to their positions. The first elections occurred on June 1, 2025, when judges for 881 judicial positions were elected. Further elections for an additional 800 judicial positions will occur in
2027.
As a result, the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation and other jurisdictional bodies have been reconstituted under a new configuration, the practical effects of which
on the continuity of pending cases, jurisprudential criteria and resolution timelines remain uncertain.
This institutional transformation could affect the development and duration of judicial, administrative or amparo proceedings in which the Company is a party, including
tax, labor and regulatory matters.
We cannot predict the impact that these changes may have on the resolution of such proceedings or on the application of the prevailing legal framework, which could
adversely affect our operations and results.
Risks Relating to our Indebtedness
Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and impair our ability to operate our business, and we may not be able to
pay the interest on and principal amount of our indebtedness.
As of March 31, 2026, Grupo TMM’s total debt amounted to $1,201.8 million, which includes $982.2 million of bank debt owed to various banks, $10.5 million owed to
non-institutional lenders, $164.0 million of related parties, and $45.1 million of liabilities associated with our long-term leases. Of this debt, $336.3 million is short-term debt, and $865.5 million is long-term debt.
Under IFRS, transaction costs related to financing arrangements are recognized as part of the debt under the amortized cost classification.
As of December 31, 2025, our total debt amounted to $1,262.2 million, which includes $1,046.0 million of bank debt owed to various banks, $12.9 million owed to
non-institutional lenders, $157.1 million of related parties, and $46.2 million of liabilities associated with our long-term leases, primarily for warehouses used in our warehousing operations. Of this debt, $323.6 million is short-term
debt, and $938.6 million is long-term debt.
Although we have taken various measures to reduce our level of indebtedness, our level of indebtedness remains substantial and could have important consequences, including
the following:
•
limiting cash flow available for capital expenditures, acquisitions, working capital and other general corporate purposes because a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations must be dedicated to servicing debt;
•
increasing our vulnerability to a downturn in economic or industry conditions;
•
exposing us to risks inherent to fluctuations in interest rates due to increases in variable interest rates on current loans and on future loans that may be at interest rates higher than current
rates, which could result in higher interest expenses;
•
limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, competitive and other changes in our business;
•
placing us at a disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt and greater operational and financial flexibility than we do;
•
limiting our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term best interest; and
•
limiting our ability to borrow additional money to fund our working capital and capital expenditures or to refinance our existing indebtedness, or to enable us to fund the acquisitions contemplated
in our business plan.
Our ability to service our indebtedness will depend upon future operating performance, including the ability to increase revenues significantly, renew our existing
services contracts and control expenses. Future operating performance depends upon various factors, including prevailing economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, business, public health and other factors that are beyond
our control.
If we cannot generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, we may default under our
various financing facilities. If we default under any such facility, the relevant lender or lenders could then take action to foreclose against any collateral securing the payment of such facility. Certain of our assets have been
pledged to secure our financing facilities. See Item 4. “Information on the Company - Property, Vessels and Equipment.”
We are primarily a holding company and depend upon funds received from our operating
subsidiaries to make payments on its indebtedness.
We are is primarily a holding company and conduct the majority of its operations, and holds a substantial portion of its operating assets, through direct and indirect
subsidiaries. As a result, we rely on income from dividends and fees related to administrative services provided to its operating subsidiaries for its operating income, including the funds necessary to service its indebtedness.
Under Mexican law, profits of our subsidiaries may only be distributed upon approval by such subsidiaries’ shareholders, and no profits may be distributed by its
subsidiaries to Grupo TMM until all losses incurred in prior fiscal years have been offset against any sub-account of our capital or net worth account. In addition, at least 5% of profits must be separated to create a reserve (reserva legal)until such reserve is equal to 20% of the aggregate value of such subsidiary’s capital stock (as calculated based on the actual nominal
subscription price received by such subsidiary for all issued shares that are outstanding at the time).
There is no restriction under Mexican law upon our subsidiaries remitting funds to it in the form of loans or advances in the ordinary course of business, except to the
extent that such loans or advances would result in the insolvency of its subsidiaries, or for our subsidiaries to pay us fees or other amounts for services.
To the extent that Grupo TMM relies on dividends or other distributions from subsidiaries that we do not wholly own, we will only be entitled to a pro rata share of the
dividends or other distributions provided by such subsidiaries.
Restrictive covenants in our financing agreements may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategies.
Some of our financing agreements contain a number of restrictive covenants and any additional financing arrangements we enter into may contain additional restrictive
covenants. These covenants restrict or prohibit many actions, including our ability, or that of our subsidiaries, to, among others:
•
incur additional indebtedness;
•
create or suffer to existing liens;
•
prepay certain debt;
•
make certain restricted payments, including the payment of dividends;
•
carry out certain investments;
•
engage in certain transactions with shareholders and affiliates;
•
Table of Contents
•
use assets as security in other transactions;
•
issue guarantees to third parties;
•
Restrict the use of cash amounts for interest payments or debt service;
•
sell assets; and
•
engage in certain mergers and consolidations or in sale-leaseback transactions.
If we fail to comply with these and other restrictive covenants, our obligation to repay our indebtedness may be accelerated. If we cannot pay the amounts due under our
financing facilities, the relevant lender or lenders could then take action to foreclose against any collateral securing the payment of such facility or facilities.
We are exposed to fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Mexican peso and the U.S. dollar, as a significant portion of our revenues, although
invoiced in U.S. dollars, is primarily settled in Mexican pesos.
A significant portion of our debt is denominated in U.S. dollars, while a relevant portion of our revenues, although referenced to such currency, is collected in Mexican
pesos at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of payment. Accordingly, we are exposed to exchange rate fluctuations.
An appreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar could adversely affect our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to service our U.S.
dollar-denominated debt.
As of March 31, 2026, approximately 89.6% of our debt was denominated in U.S. dollars. As of December 31, 2025, the Mexican peso had appreciated 11.4% against the U.S. dollar compared to
December 31, 2024. From January 1 through March 31, 2026, the Mexican peso has depreciated 0.6% against the U.S. dollar.
Exchange rate fluctuations may affect both the amount of our foreign currency obligations and the cash flows available to service them. Additionally, peso-dollar exchange
rate movements may influence Mexico's export and import levels, which could impact cargo volumes and the mix of products transported by our subsidiaries. Although in certain instances a decline in exports could be offset by an increase in
imports, such offset may not occur in a timely or sufficient manner.
Furthermore, changes in trade dynamics between Mexico and the United States, which are beyond our control, could adversely affect operating volumes or market conditions in
the sectors in which we participate, which could negatively impact our results of operations.
Our variable rate debt subjects us to risks associated with an increase in interest rates, which could increase the amount of our debt service
obligations.
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes, primarily through our variable-rate debt facilities, which generate interest payments obligations
based on the Mexican Interbank Equilibrium Interest Rate (“TIIE”) or the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). An increase in such interest rates could raise the financial cost of our debt and, consequently, our debt service
obligations, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows.Grupo TMM does not have derivative financial instruments contracted to hedge cash flow risk in relation to
the variable interest rates of its loans.
Risks Relating to Mexico
Economic, political, social and public health conditions may adversely affect our business.
Our financial performance may be significantly affected by general economic, political, social and public health conditions in the markets where we operate. Most of our
operations and assets are located in Mexico. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations and business may be affected by the general condition of the Mexican economy, the valuation of the Peso as compared to the U.S.
dollar, Mexican inflation, interest rates, regulations, taxation, social or political instability, and economic, political, social and public health developments in Mexico. Many countries in Latin America, including Mexico, have suffered
significant economic, political, social and public health crises in the past, and these events may occur again in the future. Instability in the region has been caused by many different factors, including:
•
significant governmental influence over local economies;
•
substantial fluctuations in economic growth;
•
high levels of inflation;
•
changes in currency values;
•
exchange controls or restrictions on expatriation of earnings;
overall economic, political, social and public health instability.
Mexico is an emerging market economy, with attendant risks to our results of operations and financial condition.
Mexico has historically experienced uneven periods of economic growth. Mexico’s gross domestic product (“GDP”) increased 3.7%, 3.1% 1.4% and 0.6% in 2022,
2023,2024 and 2025, respectively. For the year 2026, the Bank of Mexico, through its March Mexico Consensus Board survey, estimates that Mexico’s GDP will grow
by approximately 1.5%, while inflation is expected to be 4.53%. We cannot assure you that these estimates will prove to be accurate. The Mexican government has exercised, and continues to exercise, significant influence over the Mexican
economy. Accordingly, Mexican governmental actions concerning the economy and state-owned enterprises could have a significant impact on Mexican private sector entities in general and on us in particular, as well as on market
conditions, prices and returns on Mexican securities, including our securities.
Currency fluctuations or the devaluation and depreciation of the Peso could limit the ability of the Company and others to convert Pesos into U.S.
dollars or other currencies which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Severe devaluation or depreciation of the Peso may also result in governmental intervention or disruption of international foreign exchange markets. This may limit our
ability to transfer or convert Pesos into U.S. dollars and other currencies for the purpose of making timely payments of interest and principal on our dollar-denominated indebtedness and adversely affect our ability to obtain foreign
currency and other imported goods. The Mexican economy has suffered current account balance of payment deficits and shortages of foreign exchange reserves in the past. While the Mexican government does not currently restrict, and for more
than twenty years has not restricted, the right or ability of Mexican or foreign persons or entities to convert Pesos into U.S. dollars or to transfer other currencies outside of Mexico, the Mexican government could institute restrictive
exchange control policies in the future. To the extent that the Mexican government institutes restrictive exchange control policies in the future, our ability to transfer or convert Pesos into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making timely
payments of interest and principal on indebtedness would be adversely affected.
Pursuant to the provisions of the USMCA, if Mexico experiences serious balance of payment difficulties or the threat thereof in the future, Mexico would have the right to
impose foreign exchange controls on investments made in Mexico, including those made by U.S. and Canadian investors. Any restrictive exchange control policy could adversely affect our ability to obtain U.S. dollars or to translate Pesos
into U.S. dollars for purposes of making interest and principal payments to our creditors to the extent that we may have to make those translations. This could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
High interest rates in Mexico could increase our financing costs.
Interest rates in Mexico have experienced significant increases in recent years, reaching elevated levels during certain periods as a result of macroeconomic and monetary
conditions. The Mexican Interbank Equilibrium Interest Rate (TIIE) at 28 days averaged 4.63%, 7.91%, 11.40%, 11.10% and 8.67% in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, respectively, and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, the
average was 7.28%. To the extent we incur variable-rate debt referenced to the TIIE or other local benchmark rates, any increase in such rates could raise the financial cost of our debt.
Developments in other emerging market countries or in the United States may affect us and the prices of our securities.
The market value of securities of Mexican companies, the economic and political situation in Mexico and our financial condition and results of operations are, to varying
degrees, affected by economic and market conditions in other emerging market countries and in the United States. Although economic conditions in other emerging market countries and in the United States may differ significantly from
economic conditions in Mexico, investors’ reactions to developments in any of these other countries may have an adverse effect on the market value or trading price of securities of Mexican issuers, including our securities, or on our
business.
Our operations, including demand for our products or services and the pricing of our variable-rate debt, have also been negatively affected by the
high-interest rate environment that has prevailed in the United States and Mexico in recent years. Although during the second half of 2024 and throughout 2025 monetary authorities began a gradual cycle
of reductions in benchmark interest rates, rates remain at historically elevated levels and there is uncertainty regarding the pace, magnitude and continuity of future adjustments. If interest rates increase again or remain elevated for
prolonged periods, interest payments on our variable-rate debt and the cost of refinancing our debt agreements upon maturity may also increase, which could have a material adverse effect on our net financing costs, liquidity and results
of operations.
Mexico may experience high levels of inflation in the future, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Mexico has a history of high levels of inflation and may experience high inflation in the future. The annual inflation rates for the last five years, as measured by
changes in the National Consumer Price Index, as provided by Banco de México, were:
2020
3.15
%
2021
7.36
%
2022
7.82
%
2023
4.66
%
2024
4.21
%
2025
3.69
%
2026 (annualized through March)
4.59
%
Mexico’s level of inflation has in recent years been reported at higher levels than the annual inflation rate of the United States and Canada. The United States and Canada
are Mexico’s main trading partners. We cannot give any assurance that the Mexican inflation rate will decrease, increase or maintain its current level for any significant period of time. A substantial increase in the Mexican inflation
rate as currently in effect would have the effect of increasing some of our costs, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, as well as our ability to service our debt obligations. High levels of
inflation may also affect the balance of trade between Mexico and the United States, and other countries, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Political events and declines in the level of oil production in Mexico could affect the Mexican economy and our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
2024 was marked by significant changes in political leadership in Mexico. In October 2024, Dr. Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo assumed the presidency for the
2024–2030 term, representing the Movimiento de Regeneración Nacional (“MORENA”) party. Her administration has continued the policy of strengthening the state energy sector initiated during the previous administration, with emphasis on
energy sovereignty, the strengthening of Petróleos Mexicanos (“PEMEX”) and the Comisión Federal de Electricidad (“CFE”), as well as a gradual transition toward clean energy under the direction of the
State.
The beginning of the new administration implies a process of institutional and regulatory adjustments that has generated, and could continue to generate, uncertainty in
strategic sectors, particularly energy, infrastructure, maritime transportation and public finances. These adjustments include the redefinition of budget priorities, changes in regulatory frameworks and greater State participation in key
economic activities, which could affect the confidence of domestic and foreign investors, as well as the operating and financing conditions of companies linked to the energy and logistics sectors.
During the last quarter of 2024 and throughout 2025, the Mexican Congress approved significant legislative changes in the energy sector that have substantially modified
the regulatory framework under which both state-owned and private companies operate. Among the most relevant changes are the legal transformation of PEMEX, the elimination of several PEMEX subsidiaries, the removal of autonomous
regulatory agencies and the termination of the oil block bidding mechanism for exploration and production by private companies.
These regulatory changes may create uncertainty regarding the continuity of contracts, procurement procedures and commercial relationships previously established with
entities in the energy sector, which could negatively affect our operations, results of operations and financial condition.
The operational and financial condition of PEMEX represents a significant risk factor, considering its high level of indebtedness and its reliance on financial, fiscal and
budgetary support from the Mexican federal government. Since 2019, the Mexican government has allocated over $137 billion in supporting Pemex; during the same period, Pemex's total debt declined by only $20 billion. In addition, the
development and consolidation of strategic projects, such as the Dos Bocas refinery, involve risks associated with investment costs, operational efficiency and profitability, which could have fiscal and macroeconomic impacts.
Crude oil production in Mexico has shown a declining trend over the past two decades. Production in 2025 decreased by 7.0%,
while during the first quarter of 2026, PEMEX processed an average of 1.36 million barrels a day, through its refineries
in Mexico and Texas, representing an 0.4% increase over the first quarter of 2025 but still the second-lowest first quarter production level in thelast 16 years.
Gasoline and diesel imports declined 20.9% in 2025, 25.3% during the first quarter
of 2026. During 2025 and January 2026, these figures represented 44.1% and 28.5% of domestic consumption, respectively, reflecting efforts to increase national production and strengthen refining capacity. Nevertheless, Mexico continues
to partially depend on imports to meet its domestic fuel demand. If the Mexican government fails to attract the necessary investment or strengthen PEMEX's technological and operational capabilities, oil production could continue to
decline, which could weaken the Federal Government's financial position and adversely affect the economic environment in which we operate.
Political events in the United States could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations
Political developments in the United States and changes in U.S. trade policy have had, and could continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. The United States is Mexico’s principal trading partner and receives more than 80% of Mexico’s total exports. As a result, changes in U.S. trade policy, deterioration in bilateral relations or
reductions in trade flows between the two countries could significantly affect the Mexican economy.
Because a significant portion of our revenues is derived from logistics services, maritime transportation and cargo handling related to Mexican foreign trade, any
reduction in trade between Mexico and the United States could affect the demand for our services.
In November 2024, Donald J. Trump was reelected President of the United States and assumed his second term on January 20, 2025. Since then, his administration has pursued
a more aggressive protectionist trade agenda than during his first administration (2017–2021).
Recently, the U.S. government has threatened or enacted trade barriers in order to protect or revive its domestic industries. For example, following the U.S. Supreme
Court’s ruling on February 20, 2026 in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize the President to impose tariffs, the President
imposed a temporary import duty of 10 percent, subject to limited exceptions, pursuant to Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 and effective as of February 24, 2026, which remains subject to legal challenge. In addition, on March 11 and
March 12, 2026 the United States Trade Representative commenced new Section 301 investigations which may result in the imposition of additional tariffs, retaliatory trade actions or investigations by these countries, or other restrictions
on commerce. The situation remains particularly fluid and uncertain and it is unclear whether and to what extent new tariffs (or other new trade barriers) will be adopted, or once adopted, remain in place. Tariffs and other trade barriers
can lead to a decrease in shipping traffic and shipping rates both generally and along specific routes, and thereby have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
These measures have particularly affected the automotive sector, where U.S. authorities have questioned compliance with the rules of origin established under the USMCA and
have imposed additional tariffs on vehicles and auto parts that, according to their criteria, do not meet regional content requirements. As a result, several automotive plants in the Bajío region have announced temporary closures or
production reductions, which could affect demand for our automotive logistics services.
Restrictions on imports, including in the form of tariffs, could have a major impact on global trade and demand for shipping. Specifically, increasing trade protectionism
in the markets that our charterers serve may cause an increase in (i) the cost of goods exported from exporting countries, (ii) the length of time required to deliver goods from exporting countries, (iii) the costs of such delivery and
(iv) the risks associated with exporting goods. These factors may result in a decrease in the quantity of goods to be shipped. Protectionist developments, or the perception they may occur, may have a material adverse effect on global
economic conditions, and may significantly reduce global trade and consequently the demand for commercial shipping. These developments would also have an adverse impact on our charterers’ business, operating results and financial
condition which could, in turn, affect our charterers’ ability to make timely charter hire payments to us and impair our ability to renew charters and grow our business. Any of these developments could have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as our cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our stockholders.
Any decrease in oil prices could result in our clients reducing their spending on exploration and production projects, resulting in a decrease in
demand for our services.
Oil and natural gas prices, as well as market expectations of potential changes in these prices, significantly impact the level of worldwide drilling and
production services activities. Reduced demand for oil and natural gas or periods of surplus oil and natural gas generally result in lower prices for these commodities and often impact the economics of planned drilling projects and
ongoing projects, resulting in the curtailment, reduction, delay or postponement of such projects for an indeterminate period of time. When drilling and production activity and spending decline,
vessel daily rates and utilization for our offshore vessels historically decline as well.
As of the date of this Annual Report, the price of oil has increased 77% relative to year-end 2025. Oil and gas exploration and production companies are likely to cancel
or reduce their drilling programs and incur lower production spending on existing wells, thereby reducing demand for our service.
Any prolonged reduction in the overall level of oil and gas exploration and development activities, whether resulting from an accelerated transition to renewable energy
sources, changes in the price of oil, natural gas or otherwise, could materially and adversely affect us by negatively impacting:
•
our revenues, cash flows and profitability;
•
the fair market value and profitability of our vessels;
•
our ability to maintain or increase our borrowing capacity;
•
our ability to obtain additional capital to finance our business and make acquisitions, and the cost of that capital;
•
the collectability of our receivables; and
•
our ability to retain skilled personnel whom we would need in the event of an upturn in the demand for our services.
If any of the foregoing were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Mexican antitrust laws may limit our ability to expand through acquisitions or joint ventures.
Mexico’s federal antitrust laws and regulations may affect some of our activities, including our ability to introduce new products and services, enter into
new or complementary businesses or joint ventures and complete acquisitions. In addition, the federal antitrust laws and regulations may adversely affect our ability to determine the rates we charge for our services and products.
Approval of theComisión Nacional Antimonopolio (CNA), or
Mexican Antitrust Commission, is required for us to acquire and sell significant businesses or enter into significant joint ventures and we cannot assure you that we would be able to obtain such approval.
Investors may not be able to enforce judgments against the Company.
Investors may be unable to enforce judgments against us. We are a stock corporation, organized under the laws of Mexico. Substantially all our directors and officers
reside in Mexico, and all or a significant portion of the assets of those persons may be located outside the United States. It may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon those persons or
to enforce judgments against them or against us in U.S. courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. Additionally, it may not be possible to enforce, in original actions
in Mexican courts, liabilities predicated solely on the U.S. federal securities laws and it may not be possible to enforce, in Mexican courts, judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of
the U.S. securities laws.
Risks Relating to Ownership of our Equity
The protection afforded to minority shareholders in Mexico is different from that afforded to minority shareholders in the United States.
Under Mexican law, the protections afforded to minority shareholders are different from, and may be less than, those afforded to minority shareholders in the United
States. Under Mexican law, there is no procedure for class actions as such actions are conducted in the United States and there are different procedural requirements for bringing shareholder lawsuits against companies. Therefore, it may
be more difficult for minority shareholders to enforce their rights against us, our directors or our controlling shareholders than it would be for minority shareholders of a U.S. company.
In accordance with the Mexican Companies Act (Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles), shareholders representing at least 33%
of our capital stock can request that the Board of Directors call an Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting to vote on proposals included by the shareholders in their request to the Board.
Holders of ADSs may not be entitled to participate in any future preemptive rights offering, which may result in a dilution of such holders equity
interest in our company.
Under Mexican law, if we issue new shares for cash as a part of a capital increase, we generally must grant our stockholders the
right to purchase a sufficient number of shares to maintain their existing ownership percentage in our company. Rights to purchase shares in these circumstances are commonly referred to as preemptive rights. We may not be legally
permitted to allow holders of ADSs in the United States to exercise preemptive rights in any future capital increase unless (1) we file a registration statement with the SEC with respect to that future issuance of shares or (2) the
offering qualifies for an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. At the time of any future capital increase, we will evaluate the costs and potential liabilities associated with filing
a registration statement with the SEC, as well as the benefits of preemptive rights to holders of ADSs in the United States and any other factors that we consider important in determining whether to file a registration statement.
If we do not file a registration statement with the SEC to allow holders of ADSs in the United States to participate in a preemptive rights offering or if there is not an
exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 available, the equity interests of holders of ADSs would be diluted to the extent that ADS holders cannot participate in a preemptive rights offering.
The Company is controlled by the Serrano Segovia family.
The Serrano Segovia family controls the Company through Vanessa Serrano Cuevas’s direct and indirect ownership of our Shares as from December 31, 2022, and members of the
Serrano Segovia family serve as members of our Board of Directors. Holders of our ADSs may not vote at our shareholders’ meetings. Each of our ADSs represents five CPOs. Holders of CPOs are not entitled to exercise any voting rights with
respect to the Shares held in the Master Neutral Investment Trust (Fideicomiso Maestro de Inversion Neutra) (the “CPO Trust”). Such voting rights are exercisable only by the trustee, which is
required by the terms of the trust agreement to vote such Shares in the same manner as the majority of the Shares that are not held in the CPO Trust that are voted at any shareholders’ meeting. Currently the Serrano Segovia family owns a
majority of the Shares that are not held in the CPO Trust. As a result, the Serrano Segovia family will be able to direct and control the policies of the Company and its subsidiaries, including mergers, sales of assets and similar
transactions. See Item 7. “Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions - Major Shareholders.”
A change in control may adversely affect us.
In the past, a portion of the Shares and ADSs of the Company held by the Serrano Segovia family was pledged to secure indebtedness of the Serrano Segovia family and
entities controlled by them and may from time to time in the future be pledged to secure obligations of other of their affiliates. A foreclosure upon any such Shares held by the Serrano Segovia family could result in a change of control
under the various debt instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries. Such debt instruments provide that certain change of control events with respect to us will constitute a default and that the relevant lenders may require us to
prepay our debt obligations including accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of such repayment. If such a default occurs, we cannot assure you that we will have enough funds to repay our debt.
Our ADSs trade on the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market, which may limit the liquidity and price of our ADSs more than if the ADSs were quoted or listed
on a national securities exchange.
Our ADSs currently trade on the OTC market under the ticker symbol GTMAY. The OTC market is a significantly more limited market than a national securities exchange such as
the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) or NASDAQ, with generally lower trading volumes and higher price volatility. Quotation of the ADSs on the OTC market may limit the liquidity and price of the ADSs and could adversely impact our ability
to raise capital.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal
controls over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud.
As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the SEC adopted rules requiring an annual assessment by management of the effectiveness of a public company’s
internal controls over financial reporting and an attestation report by the Company’s independent auditors addressing this assessment, if applicable. Effective internal control is necessary for us to provide reliable and accurate
financial statements and to effectively prevent fraud.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well
conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there
are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute
assurance that we have detected all control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be
no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
As discussed in Item 15 “Controls and Procedures,” based on a review of our internal controls over financial reporting, our management has identified certain material
weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. Due to these material weaknesses, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2025.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. For a summary of the material weaknesses identified and the measures that we have taken and are taking to remediate, see “Item 15. Controls and
Procedures—Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.”
We cannot assure you that we will be able to remediate our existing material weaknesses in a timely manner, if at all, or that in the future additional material weaknesses will not exist,
recur or otherwise be discovered. If our efforts to remediate these material weaknesses, as described in Item 15 “Controls and Procedures”, is not successful or if other deficiencies occur, our ability to accurately and timely report our
financial position, results of operations, cash flows or key operating metrics could be impaired, which could result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements, late filings of our annual or interim reports
under the Exchange Act, restatements of our consolidated financial statements or other corrective disclosures. Additionally, the remediation measures we take may be time-consuming and costly and there is no assurance that such initiatives
will ultimately have the intended effects. Our failure to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 on an ongoing, timely basis could result in the loss of investor
confidence in the reliability of its financial statements, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our business and negatively impact the trading price of our Shares. There can be no assurance that the measures we have taken to
date, or any measures we may take in the future, will be sufficient to avoid potential future material weaknesses.
ITEM 4
INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY
A. History and Development of the Company
We were formed on August 14, 1987, under the laws of Mexico as a variable capital corporation (sociedad anónima de capital variable) to
serve as a holding company for investments by certain members of the Serrano Segovia family.
TMM merged with and into Grupo TMM (formerly Grupo Servia, S.A. de C.V. (“Grupo Servia”)), which was effected on December 26, 2001, leaving Grupo TMM as the surviving entity. Under the terms of the merger, all of the assets, privileges and rights and all of the liabilities of TMM were transferred
to Grupo TMM upon the effectiveness of the merger. TMM was founded on September 18, 1958, by a group of private investors, including the Serrano Segovia
family.
In December 2001, the boards of directors of TMM and Grupo TMM unanimously approved a corporate reorganization and merger in which TMM was merged with and into Grupo TMM.
After the merger, each shareholder of TMM continued to own the same relative economic interest in Grupo TMM as the shareholder owned in TMM prior to the merger. In preparation for the merger, the shareholders of Grupo TMM approved the
division (escisión) of Grupo TMM into two companies, Grupo TMM and a newly formed corporation, Promotora Servia, S.A. de C.V. (“Promotora Servia”). Under the terms of the escisión, Grupo TMM transferred all of its assets, rights and privileges (other than its interest in TMM) and all of its liabilities to Promotora Servia. The transfer of assets to Promotora Servia was made without
recourse and without representation or warranty of any kind, and all of Grupo TMM’s creditors expressly and irrevocably consented to the transfer of the liabilities to Promotora Servia.
On September 13, 2002, we completed a reclassification of our Series L Shares of stock as Series A Shares. The reclassification combined our two classes of stock into a
single class by converting each share of our Series L Shares into one share of our Series A Shares. The reclassification also eliminated the variable portion of our capital stock and we became a fixed capital corporation (sociedad anónima). Following the reclassification, we had 56,963,137 Shares outstanding. As a result of the elimination of the variable portion of our capital stock, our registered name changed from
Grupo TMM, S.A. de C.V. to Grupo TMM, S.A.
As a result of a reform to the securities law in Mexico promulgated in June 2006, publicly traded companies in Mexico were transformed by operation of law into Sociedades Anónimas Bursátiles (Public Issuing Corporation) and were required to amend their bylaws to conform them to the provisions of the new law. Accordingly, on December 20, 2006, the Company
added the term “Bursátil” to its registered name to comply with the requirements under Mexico’s new securities law, or Ley del Mercado de Valores. As a
result, the Company is known as Grupo TMM, Sociedad Anónima Bursátil, or Grupo TMM, S.A.B. In addition, the Series A Shares of the Company were renamed as nominative common shares without par value (“Shares”). The rights afforded by the
new Shares are identical to the rights afforded by the former Series A Shares.
On December 15, 2017, as part of corporate restructuring to improve our debt profile, we transferred 85% of the shares of our wholly owned subsidiary, TMM Division
Maritima, S.A. de C.V. (“TMMDM”), an owner and operator of supply vessels, tankers and tugboats, to the holders of certificates issued by TMMDM under our Mexican Peso-Denominated Trust Certificates Program (the “Trust Certificates
Program”). The Trust Certificates Program involved the issuance to investors of certificates secured by trust assets and denominated in Mexican Pesos, the proceeds of which were used by us to consolidate and refinance the debt related to
those vessels, as well as to finance the acquisition of additional vessels as contemplated by our expansion program. As a result of the transfer, we no longer exercise control over TMMDM and our financial statements no longer include
TMMDM’s assets, liabilities, and income or loss. A Maritime Service Contact was entered into to operate TMMDM’s supply vessels and tankers, which was terminated by both parties in August of 2022. TMMDM has since changed its name to
Marítima del Golfo de México y Subsidiarias para el Petróleo, S.A. de C.V.
Today, we are a fixed capital corporation listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores)incorporated under the Ley General deSociedades Mercantiles for a term of 99 years. We are headquartered at Convento de Acolman 58-B,
Colonia Jardines de Santa Mónica 54050, State of México, México, and our telephone number is +52-55-5629-8866. The SEC maintains a website that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers
that file electronically with the SEC, such as Grupo TMM, at http://www.sec.gov. Grupo TMM’s Internet website address is www.tmm.com.mx. The information on Grupo TMM’s website is not incorporated into this Annual Report.
B. Business Overview
General
We are one of the largest logistics and transportation companies in Mexico, providing a variety of integrated and dynamic logistics and transportation services to premium
clients throughout Mexico, including maritime transportation services, ports and terminals management, logistics services and warehousing services.
As part of the strengthening plan, (i) we have reassigned the ship agency business to the Maritime Operations Division, which was
previously reported as part of the Ports and Terminals Division, (ii) the shipyard business has become a Business Division, now called Maritime Infrastructure (this division was previously a part of the Maritime Operations Division), and
(iv) the Logistics Division is now reported within the Ports, Terminals and Logistics Division.
Maritime Operations. Our Maritime Operations division provides maritime transportation services,
including offshore vessels that provide transportation and other services to the oil industry at sea, tanker vessels that transport
petroleum products, chemical tankers than carry liquid chemical products, and general cargo and bulk vessels in Mexican and international waters. As of March 31, 2026, we operate a fleet of five offshore supply vessels.Additionally, dry cargo maritime operations are conducted on a spot basis. This business unit also provides maritime agency services to ship owners and operators of Mexico’s main ports.
Maritime infrastructure operations. We operate a shipyard with integrated services based in the port of
Tampico, Mexico through our subsidiary, Inmobiliaria Dos Naciones, S.R.L. de C.V. (“IDN”). IDN is located near offshore oil and gas facilities and key commercial routes between the Southeastern United States and Mexico. As of March 31,
2026, IDN provides ship repair services and has two floating docks, the first with a capacity of 3,000 metric tons and the second with a capacity of 6,600 metric tons, which was commissioned in January of this year. IDN services more
than 30 vessels per year and provides us with the necessary capabilities to build additional naval vessels.
Ports, Terminals and Logistics Operations. We presently provide general cargo operations at the
port of Tuxpan, under permits for cargo handling and stowage services granted by the Mexican government, which provides for certain renewal rights. As of June 2021, and as a result of the
Mexican government’s decision that all ports should be operated by such government, our concession in the port of Acapulco was not renewed.
In addition, we provide dedicated logistics services to major manufacturers, including automobile manufacturers and retailers with facilities and operations throughout
Mexico. The services that we provide include consulting, analytical and logistics outsourcing services, which encompass the management of inbound movement of parts to manufacturing plants consistent with just-in-time inventory planning
practices; logistics network (order-cycle) analysis; automotive logistics supervision from the production line exit, warehouses and transportation to the various ports for export, import and domestic market units, logistics information
process design; intermodal transport; supply chain and logistics management; maintenance and repair of containers in principal Mexican ports and cities and inbound and outbound distribution using multiple transportation modes. Due to the
scope of our operations, together with the extent of our experience and resources, we believe that we are uniquely positioned to coordinate the entire supply chain for our customers.
Warehousing Operations. In October 2025, the warehousing business ceased to be part of the Company’s consolidated operations as a
result of the loss of control in accordance with IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company holds a 99% equity interest in Almacenadora de Depósito Moderno, S.A. de C.V. (ADEMSA) and Saricogui Logística, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (Saricogui), both of which were part of
the Warehousing Operations.
The warehousing business overtime has become a small division for Grupo TMM, representing approximately 3% for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2025 and 8% and 12% for the years
ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, of the consolidated revenues of the group. Grupo TMM’s business strategy is to focus on Maritime and Maritime infrastructure operations; therefore, the sale of the warehousing division has
been considered as an option to generate additional cash flow from the sale while it allows Management to dedicate efforts and resources to those significant divisions.
In relation to the above, Grupo TMM signed a letter of intent with the third-party specialized in the warehousing and logistics business, in which the latter expresses their interest in
acquiring all the shares representing the subsidiaries’ capital stock at a price of $40 million pesos, payable in several installments. As of December 31, 2025, the advances received were in the amount to $16.7 million pesos. The
completion of the sale is subject to meeting certain requirements and obtaining authorization from the relevant regulatory entities and is expected to happen in the following years. Due to the characteristics of this transaction, it does
not fall within the natures of assets held for sale nor discontinued operations according to the related IFRS standards.
With the purpose of facilitating the completion of this sale, Grupo TMM and the third-party signed corporate agreements that granted 1% of capital stock of ADEMSA and Saricogui to the
third party along with the rights to name the majority of the Board of Directors, these agreements are executable and non-cancelable within a 5-year period, during which the sale is expected to be completed; also the above considered that
installments received by Grupo TMM for the sale are equivalent to a 42% of the total capital stock of warehousing operations. These agreements granted to the third party the right to direct the relevant activities (definition of the
business plan, determination of services to be provided and relationships with customers and suppliers, approval of financing and other significant transactions) that directly affect the variable returns to which shareholders are entitled
or are exposed and without limitation to exercise such rights, such rights were fully exercised by the third party. Therefore, as of October 1, 2025 Grupo TMM concluded they have lost control of ADEMSA and Saricogui.
As of the date of the loss of control, the Company stopped consolidating the assets and liabilities, as well as the income and expenses of ADEMSA and Saricogui; on that date, it
recognized the amount of the retained equity investment of $52 million pesos and a gain of $204,443, due to the negative carrying value of these subsidiaries in the amount of $152,443. See Note 1 “General information and nature of
operations” and Note 17 “Other costs, expenses and income” of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein.
Through its subsidiaries Almacenadora de Depósito Moderno, S.A. de C.V., Organización Auxiliar de Crédito (“ADEMSA”), and Saricogui, Logística S.A.P.I. de C.V.
(“Saricogui”), the Company provided warehousing services for domestic and international goods. ADEMSA operated as an authorized General Warehouse (Almacén General de Depósito) in Mexico, with the capacity to issue warehouse certificates
and to enable third-party facilities under the bonded warehouse (depósito fiscal) regime, while Saricogui focused on domestic warehousing services.

Digitalization Strategy
During the fiscal year, Grupo TMM continued to consolidate its digital transformation strategy as a key enabler to strengthen productivity, optimize operational
efficiency, and enhance internal control mechanisms, contributing to sustainable value creation and the long-term resilience of the business.
As part of this strategy, the Group has promoted the internal development of specialized technological platforms through its Information Technology team. This approach has
enabled the Company to tailor solutions to the specific operational needs of each business unit, reduce dependence on third-party providers, and avoid recurring costs associated with software licensing, external implementations, and
customization of commercial software. This strategy contributes to strengthening financial efficiency and generating savings that positively impact the Group’s operating profitability.
The Group’s cloud computing strategy has enabled optimization in the allocation of technological resources, improved operational flexibility, and strengthened financial
discipline, contributing to the gradual reduction of infrastructure costs and greater efficiency in systems management. At the same time, information security frameworks were reinforced through the implementation of additional controls
and tools aimed at protecting the Group’s information and technological assets, thereby strengthening the management of operational and technological risks.
The continued strengthening of the Information Technology team’s capabilities has enabled an ongoing focus on the evaluation of innovative solutions, ensuring the Group’s
technological evolution and preparedness to address emerging challenges in the digital environment.
Strategic Platforms and Operational Efficiency.Key technological platforms continued to
evolve to improve the automation, traceability, and control of operational processes.
The ARCADIA v2.0 customer relationship management system expanded its adoption across the organization, contributing to the optimization of commercial management, improved
visibility of business opportunities, and strengthened decision-making based on structured information, positively impacting commercial productivity.
The APOLO help desk platform continued advancing in its strategic evolution to strengthen traceability, control, and quality in incident management, improving operational
continuity and the experience of internal users.
The ADIRAN system successfully completed its functional testing phase and is currently in the implementation process. Once deployed, it will replace technological
infrastructure that has been in operation for more than 17 years, reducing risks associated with legacy systems, improving the reliability of logistics operations, and generating operational efficiencies.
Human Capital Management and Organizational Control.The TALENTUM platform continued
strengthening workforce capabilities through training and evaluation programs, contributing to improved productivity and greater technical specialization of the Group’s human capital.
The evolution of DOMUS toward an integrated platform will enhance organizational management through the integration of human resources processes and asset management, improving information
traceability and strengthening internal controls.
Additionally, the DOMUS Marítimo platform enabled improved personnel allocation in maritime operations, enhanced shift planning, and strengthened regulatory compliance, contributing to safer
and more efficient operations.
Automation, Financial Control, and Operational Discipline.The SYRIUS system continued
evolving as a tool for recording and controlling vessel operational activities, facilitating the automated generation of estimates and the monitoring of billing processes, contributing to improved financial accuracy and revenue control.
The Document Management System continued consolidating its role as a key platform for the structured administration of institutional information, strengthening document traceability,
regulatory compliance, and the management of information-related risks.
Analytics and Data-Driven Management.As part of the Group’s data-driven management
strategy, corporate key performance indicator (KPI) dashboards were further consolidated as a central platform for strategic analysis. These dashboards integrate operational, financial, and commercial information, improving visibility
into business performance and strengthening timely decision-making.
New Platforms for Operational Optimization.During the period, progress was made in the
development of solutions aimed at strengthening operational and financial discipline.

New Floating Dock
In January 2025, a newly built floating dock was added to the Maritime Infrastructure Division’s fleet. It was acquired through financing provided by Bancomext for $16.8
million, equivalent to approximately 85% of its value at a SOFR + 2.35% rate with quarterly principal and interest payments. The floating dock will allow us to service vessels of up to 6,000 lifting tons, accessing a 94% market share.
• Supervision of logistics providers for the automotive industry.
In January 2025, the Ports, Terminals and Logistics division expanded its services in the automotive industry sector, extending its operational scope
from port operations to comprehensive supervision of the logistics chain from the plant level. As part of this expansion, operations commenced in the city of Puebla.
• Deconsolidation of the warehousing business.
In October 2025, the Company ceased to consolidate the warehousing business as a result of the loss of control over such operation.
• Termination of tanker, gas carrier and chemical tanker vessel contracts.
During 2024, the Company commenced the provision of coastal transportation services for fuel oil between various ports in the Gulf of Mexico, which
concluded in January 2026.Additionally, in June 2024, propane gas transportation services commenced between the ports of Houston and Coatzacoalcos. Such contract concluded in June 2025.
The petrochemical transportation services contract between the ports of Houston and Coatzacoalcos concluded in December 2025 in accordance with its
contractual terms, without subsequent renewal, in line with the Company's strategy of focusing on higher-profitability and operationally efficient operations.
Closure of Certain Container Maintenance and Repair Locations
At the end of 2023 and the beginning of 2024, the Company decided to close its container maintenance and repair operations in the locations of Ensenada, Altamira,
Manzanillo, Pantaco and Veracruz, retaining only the location in Aguascalientes. This decision was driven by a significant market downturn, leading the Company to strengthen its market presence in Aguascalientes.
Capital Increase
In 2023, a capital increase was executed amounting to $151,977,600.60 at a subscription price of $2.10 pesos per share, equivalent to 72,370,286 Shares. This
capital increase marks a historic moment for the Company, enabling it to consolidate its projects, create shareholder value, and generate investor confidence.
New “Loderos” Vessels
At the end of 2023, the Company was awarded two three-year contracts for the operation of two specialized vessels called “Loderos,” or mud vessels, designed and converted by the technical
team of the Maritime Operations Division, and which began operations during the first quarter of 2024. In January 2025, these vessels were acquired through financing provided by Inbursa for $40.5 million at an annual rate of SOFR + 5%,
with semiannual payments of principal and interest. Currently, the Company operates a fleet of five such vessels of this type.
New Mexico City Airport Bonded Warehouse - AIFA
On February 4, 2022 the new airport in Mexico City (Aeropuerto Internacional Felipe Angeles-AIFA) awarded our wholly owned subsidiary, TMM Almacenadora S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“S.A.P.I”), a
10-year lease to operate a bonded warehouse of 5,184 square meters within the airport’s cargo terminal. Also, in August of the same year, we were awarded a 10-year lease to operate a 12,200 square meters warehouse for domestic cargo. In
December 2022, we partnered with an important company specialized in port terminals for the development and operation of the warehouses and, during the second quarter of 2023, S.A.P.I., which included the AIFA concession, was sold.
National Warehousing Operations
As a result of the sale of TMM Almacenadora S.A.P.I. de C.V, the existing national warehousing operations were transferred to Saricogui Logística S.A.P.I. de C.V., a
subsidiary of Grupo TMM. Saricogui Logística S.A.P.I. de C.V. is part of the deconsolidation of the warehousing operation due to loss of control.
Refinancing of Certain Credit Lines
During 2021, 2022 and 2023, we refinanced certain of our outstanding credit lines, extending their maturity dates to provide additional support as we continued to navigate
disruptions to international trade and demand for our services resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Charter of Specialized “Mud Vessels”
In August 2021, PEMEX awarded us a three-year contract to operate three specialized vessels, known as “mud vessels,” for use in the generation, transportation,
conditioning and recovery of fluids during the drilling, completion and repair of offshore oil wells, which are currently undergoing renovation. At the end of August 2022, the Company secured the addition of a fourth mud vessel for one
year, as part of the aforementioned contracts. In May 2024, the contracts for the three mud vessels were renewed for a period of 3.5 years.
As part of our cost reduction efforts, in 2021 we moved our corporate headquarters to a new location in Mexico City, which has generated significant savings by lowering our lease payments and
other corporate costs.
RTG Crane Acquisition
In June 2019, we entered into a financing agreement with PNC Bank, N.A., guaranteed by EXIM Bank, to acquire a rubber tyred gantry (“RTG”) crane to replace the crane used
in our automotive sector operations at Aguascalientes. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company received loan proceeds in the amount of US$860 thousand (approximately 85% of the purchase price of the crane), at a fixed rate of 4.40% per
annum, with semiannual payments of principal and interest, maturing in July 2024, and settled on July 15, 2024.
Resumption of the business of transporting steel to South America in bulk carriers on a spot basis.
In August 2017, we began the service of transporting steel in bulk to South America in specialized vessels called bulk carriers. As part of our strategy to
have profitable operations, we terminated this service in December of 2022.In October 2025, we resumed bulk cargo transportation operations on a spot voyage basis, primarily for steel
transportation, through the chartering of third-party vessels in accordance with prevailing market conditions.
The Mexican Market
Since TMM’s formation in 1958, the growth and diversification of the Mexican economy have largely driven our growth. Following the enactment of NAFTA, which became
effective January 1, 1994, trade with and investment in the Mexican economy has significantly increased, resulting in greater traffic along the North-South cross-border trade routes that extend from Canada to the United States and Mexico.
The USMCA, the successor to NAFTA, entered into force on July 1, 2020. Although the USMCA aims to support mutually beneficial trade and robust economic growth among parties, we cannot predict the changes the agreement may have or the
impact the USMCA will have on the Mexican economy or our results of operations given the recent changes in leadership and policies in member countries.
The global trend of manufacturing relocation to Mexico (“nearshoring”), driven by the search for supply chains closer to end markets in North America, has led to increased
activity across the country’s main ports and logistics corridors. This trend has resulted in higher demand for container handling, automotive and cargo logistics, inland transportation and port services—areas in which Grupo TMM operates
and has an established presence.
The Company actively monitors the development of this trend as a growth opportunity for demand for its services, while recognizing that commercial risks arising from
protectionist policies in the United States could moderate or reverse such trend
The following table illustrates the growth of the foreign trade segment of the Mexican economy over the last three years:

The Company’s strategy is to focus on strengthening businesses related to the maritime and logistics sectors, as well as maintaining efficient and profitable operations.
As part of our ongoing efforts to achieve the Company’s goals, throughout the past five years we have accomplished the following:
•
We have adopted the following actions as a permanent part of our strategies, which focus, among others, on offsetting recent financial instability resulting from pandemics and the downturn in the
oil industry: (i) reducing our overhead costs and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, (ii) working with Nacional Financiera, S.N.C. to maintain our early payment program to reduce our liquidity risk and
mitigate payment delays resulting from changes in the payment policies of PEMEX and other key customers, (iii) diversifying our customer base, and (iv) negotiating with our lenders to delay our payment obligations and extend the
applicable maturity date under various loans and financing agreements.
•
With respect to helping ensure our financial reporting and auditing processes remain robust and as timely as possible, permanent actions we have implemented include, among others, (i) the
implementation of new controls for emergency procedures, (ii) close monitoring of IT access controls to enable our employees to work remotely where possible, (iii) controls to mitigate the potential increase in cybersecurity risks
arising from a higher level of remote work, and (iv) where existing controls are unable to be performed safely or effectively, identifying and implementing appropriate alternative controls to compensate for the lack of
information.
•
We increased the number of ships for our Offshore Maritime Sector related businesses through the addition of five specialized vessels under a time charter contract with PEMEX. These vessels, known
as “mud vessels”, are used in the generation, transportation, conditioning and recovery of fluids during the drilling, completion and repair of offshore oil wells. Additionally, two of the mud vessels were acquired in January 2025
through financing provided by Inbursa for $40.5 million at an annual rate of SOFR + 5%, with semiannual payments of principal and interest. These vessels were registered in Mexico and renamed TMM Alfa (formerly Auora Pearl) and
TMM Gamma (formerly World Peridot).
•
To focus on strengthening our maritime-related businesses, we sold our warehousing business at the new Mexico City airport (Felipe Ángeles International Airport - AIFA), along with TMM Almacenadora
S.A.P.I. de CV, the holder of the concession granted by AIFA. Additionally, to maintain efficient and profitable operations, we closed certain container maintenance and repair workshops.
•
During 2023, a capital increase amounting to $151,977,600.60 was undertaken by the principal shareholders of the Company. This capital increase will enable us to consolidate our projects, create
value for our shareholders, and generate confidence among investors.
•
Atthe end of 2024, we renewed our assets in the Maritime Infrastructure business by replacing the ARD-10 floating dock, which had reached its useful life,
with a newly built one, allowing us to increase current capacity and access a 94% market share. This new floating dock was acquired through financing provided by Bancomext for $16.8 million, equivalent to approximately 85% of
its value at a SOFR + 2.35% rate with quarterly payments of principal and interest.
As part of our strategy to maintain efficient and profitable operations, the Company has strengthened its focus
on business portfolio optimization through the exit from non-strategic operations and the prioritization of contracts with higher profitability, return and cash flow generation.
Our business strategy is focused on the following:
•
Strengthen our business related to the Maritime and Logistics Sectors;
•
Increasing the installed capacity in our Maritime Infrastructure operations;
•
Maintaining efficient and profitable operations in Ports and Terminals and Logistics
•
Diversification and expansion of services and customers;
•
Business development with the assets strategically located in Tuxpan, Veracruz; and
•
Disciplined and continuous control of expenses.
We expect to fulfill all of the above-mentioned objectives through a series of financial and commercial strategies that are described in full detail in Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects”.

Product Tankers
Since 1992, we have provided product tanker chartering services to PEMEX and its subsidiaries for the transportation of clean and dirty petroleum products from refineries
to various Mexican ports. During 2023, we operated the Kinaros tanker, which ended its contract in December 2023, from June 2024 through January 26, 2026, the Company operated the tanker vessel Steel,
which was under a time charter contract with the company CFEnergía for cabotage fuel oil transportation between the ports of Coatzacoalcos and Tuxpan.
Parcel tanker business between Mexican and U.S. ports in the Gulf of Mexico consisted of the transportation of chemical substances, vegetable and animal oils, as well as
molasses. The majority of cargo volumes were transported under contracts of affreightment ("COAs"), whereby customers committed to the transportation of their cargo over a specified period, across multiple voyages, with minimum and
maximum cargo tonnage volumes at a fixed price. Under this arrangement, the vessel operator was responsible for the vessel, fuel and port expenses.
During 2025, the fleet for this segment consisted of one chartered chemical tanker. That year, 184 thousand metric tons of chemical products were transported, compared to
372 thousand metric tons during 2024, 361 thousand metric tons during 2023, and 531 thousand metric tons during 2022.
In September 2025, the vessel completed its final voyage, at which point its last service concluded.

Bulk Carrier
In August 2017, we commenced transporting unpackaged general commodities such as steel between South America, the Caribbean and Mexico in specialized ships called bulk
carrier vessels. Our bulk carrier services typically involve the hiring of a bulk carrier vessel approximately once per month. On December 31, 2022, we concluded this service. Subsequently, in October 2025, we resumed bulk cargo
transportation operations on a spot voyage basis, primarily for steel transportation, through the chartering of third-party vessels in accordance with prevailing market conditions.
Maritime Agency Services
We work as representatives of shipowners through our agencies and subagents in the principal ports of Mexico, including the ports of Veracruz, Coatzacoalcos,
Ciudad del Carmen, Dos Bocas, Tuxpan, Puerto Vallarta, Zihuatanejo, Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlán, Acapulco, Manzanillo, Huatulco and Puerto Chiapas.
Our agencies that provide services to vessel owners and operators in Mexican ports include: (i) port agent services, including the preparation of the necessary
documentation with the port authorities for the clearance of vessels; (ii) security agent services, which supports the rotation of crew members; (iii) multimodal cargo and supervision; (iv) vessel provisioning services, which include the
procurement of food, water and supplies, services provided through third parties and (v) fueling services, which include the coordination of fuel delivery services. Our shipping agencies also provide shipping agency services to other
major ports through agreements with local agents.
The primary purchasers of our Maritime Operations services are multi-national oil, gas and chemical companies. These services are generally contracted on a short-term or
long-term time charter basis, voyage charters, COAs or other transportation agreements tailored to the shipper’s requirements. In 2025, our three largest customers accounted for approximately 96.9% and 73.1% of Maritime Operations
revenues and consolidated revenues, respectively. The loss of one or more of our customers could have a material adverse effect on our Maritime Operations Division’s results of operations.
The services we provide are arranged through different contractual arrangements. Time charters are the principal contractual form for our Maritime Operations.
In the case of a time charter, the charterer is responsible for the hire, fuel and port expenses, and the shipowner is responsible for the nautical operation of the
vessel, including the expenses related to the crew, maintenance and insurance. When we bareboat charter a vessel, the charterer is responsible for the hire, fuel and port expenses but also assumes all risk of the nautical operation,
including the associated expenses. COAs are contracts with a customer for the carriage of cargoes that are committed on a multi-voyage basis over a period of weeks or months, with minimum and maximum cargo tonnages specified over the
period at fixed rates per ton depending on the duration of the contract. Typically, under voyage charters and COAs, the shipowner pays for the fuel and any applicable port charges.
Markets
The demand for offshore vessels is affected by the level of offshore exploration and drilling activities, which in turn is influenced by a number of factors including:
•
expectations as to future oil and gas commodity prices;
•
customer assessments of offshore drilling prospects compared to land-based opportunities;
•
customer assessments of cost, geological opportunity and political stability in host countries;
•
worldwide demand for oil and natural gas;
•
the ability of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) to set and maintain production levels and pricing;
•
the level of production of non-OPEC countries;
•
the relative exchange rates for the U.S. dollar; and
•
various government policies regarding exploration and development of their oil and gas reserves.
Maritime Infrastructure Operations
The Company has a concession to operate a shipyard in the port of Tampico, Mexico. The shipyard is strategically located on the Gulf of Mexico, in close proximity to
offshore oil and gas facilities and other key trade routes between the southeastern United States and Mexico. The shipyard provides repair services over 30 vessels per year. In addition, to better capitalize on the opportunities created
by new entrants in the Mexican market, a new 6,600-metric-ton floating dock was acquired in December 2024, expanding our capabilities to serve customers with larger vessels and accessing a 94% market share, increasing the Company’s
revenue.
In 2025, this segment represented approximately 17.2% of consolidated revenues.
Ports, Terminals and Logistics Operations
This Division is responsible for logistic solutions services, as well as container and rail car maintenance and repair, loading, unloading and storage services for goods
in land and sea terminals. This segment represents 4.4%, 3.5% and 6.0% of consolidated revenues for the years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Since 1999, through our subsidiary Operadora Portuaria de Tuxpan, S.A. de C.V. (“OPT”), we have held a permit to provide general cargo operations at the public berths in
the port of Tuxpan, such as loading and unloading of grain and gravel for the construction of a gas pipeline at public docks, as well as container-warehousing services, and we also provide grain storage services within our facilities. In
addition, we own approximately 1,780 acres of land in the Port of Tuxpan through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Bimonte S.A. de C.V., Prestadora de Servicios MTR, S.A. de C.V. and Services and Solutions Optimus, S. de R.L. de C.V., in

Acapulco
In June 1996, we received a 25-year concession to operate the tourist port of Acapulco, which was operated through a joint venture with SSA Mexico through the company
Administración Portuaria Integral de Acapulco, S.A. de C.V. (“API Acapulco”), with Grupo TMM being the majority shareholder with 51%. Operations at this terminal ended on June 21, 2021 due to the
decision of the Federal Government during the President Andrés Manuel López Obrador administration not to renew our concession and transitioning Mexican port operations to the oversight and control of SEMAR.
Logistics Operations
Through TMM Logistics, S.A. de C.V. (“TMM Logistics”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Grupo TMM, we provide dedicated logistics services to major manufacturers, including
automobile manufacturers, and retailers with facilities and operations throughout Mexico. The services that we provide include consulting, analytical and logistics outsourcing services, which encompass the management of inbound movement
of parts to manufacturing plants consistent with just-in-time inventory planning practices; logistics network (order-cycle) analysis; logistics information process design; supply chain and logistics management. Due to the scope of our
operations, together with the extent of our experience and resources, we believe that we are uniquely positioned to coordinate the entire supply chain for our customers.
Automotive Services
Through Autotransportación y Distribución Logística (“ATL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Grupo TMM, we provide specialized logistics support for the automotive industry
within Mexico. Services include the arrangement and coordination of the movement of motor vehicle parts or sub-assemblies from supplier facilities to assembly plants, warehousing, inspection and yard management. Our logistics services can
be provided as end-to-end integrated logistics programs (bundled) or discrete services (unbundled) depending on customer needs.
At the end of 2024, ATL won a three-year tender to supervise operations in the finished unit yards and at the ports where the automaker ships and/or receives its cars.
These services are provided in the towns of Puebla and in the ports of Lázaro Cárdenas, Veracruz, and Tuxpan, supervising logistics movements 24/7 and the different suppliers of the logistics chain.
Through TMM Logistics, we offer maintenance and repair services for maritime containers in Aguascalientes. These services involve keeping refrigerated components and
other parts of a container in safe condition for use, including mechanical repair, welding and repainting of such containers.
Warehousing Operations
In October 2025, the Company ceased to consolidate the warehousing business as a result of the loss of control over such operation. This segment represented 3.0%, 8.3% and
12.3% of consolidated revenues through Septiembre 2025, December 2024 and 2023, respectively. Through its subsidiaries Almacenadora de Depósito Moderno, S.A. de C.V., Organización Auxiliar de Crédito (“ADEMSA”), and Saricogui, Logística
S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“Saricogui”), the Company provided warehousing services for domestic and international goods. ADEMSA operated as an authorized General Warehouse (Almacén General de Depósito) in Mexico, with the capacity to issue
warehouse certificates and to enable third-party facilities under the bonded warehouse (depósito fiscal) regime, while Saricogui focused on domestic warehousing services.
Grupo TMM’s Strategic Partners
We currently do not have strategic partners.
Sales and Marketing
Much of the success of our business depends on our marketing network. Our marketing network includes affiliated offices, agencies at Mexican ports and a sales force based
throughout Mexico to sell our logistics, ports and specialized maritime services. Our marketing and sales efforts are designed to grow and expand our current customer base by initiating long-term contracts. We have devised, implemented
and will continue to implement several customer service initiatives in connection with our marketing efforts, which include the designation of customer sales territories and assignment of customer service teams to particular customers.
Since we commenced operations, we have been actively seeking to obtain new customer contracts with the expectation of entering into long-term contracts with such new
clients or with existing customers. Although written customer contracts are not customary in Mexico, we have succeeded in negotiating written contracts with a number of our major customers.
Systems and Technology
During the reported period, Grupo TMM continued advancing the modernization of its technological environment, with a focus on strengthening operational efficiency, risk
mitigation, and disciplined financial resource management. These initiatives form part of the Group’s ongoing digital transformation process and are intended to ensure the resilience of the technological infrastructure supporting its
operations.
Platform Modernization
Grupo TMM implemented strategic updates to various corporate applications, incorporating operational requirements from different business units and corporate functions.
These enhancements contribute to increased organizational productivity, improved operational reliability, and an enhanced user experience, while reinforcing the stability of critical systems supporting the Group’s activities.

Warehousing Operations
In October 2025, the Company ceased to consolidate the warehousing business as a result of the loss of control over such operation.
Regulatory Framework
Certain countries have laws which restrict the carriage of cargos depending upon the nationality of a vessel or its crew or the origin or destination of the vessel, as
well as other considerations relating to particular national interests. In accordance with Mexico’s Navigation Law(Ley deNavegación
y Comercio Marítimos), cabotage (intra-Mexican movement) is reserved for ships flying the Mexican flag. We believe we are currently in material compliance with all restrictions imposed by the jurisdictions in which we operate.
However, we cannot predict the cost of compliance if our business is expanded into other jurisdictions which have enacted similar regulations.
We are also subject to the laws of various jurisdictions and international conferences with respect to the discharge of materials into the environment. See “-
Environmental Regulation” and “- Insurance.”
Our port operations are subject to the Ley de Puertos. Port operations require a concession title granted by the Mexican
government to special companies incorporated under the Ley de Puertos, which companies may partially assign their concession title to third parties for the use and exploitation of assets owned by
the Mexican government in the different port facilities (subject to the Ley de Puertos and the terms and conditions of the concession title). Various port services require a special permit
granted by the Ministry of Communications and Transportation of Mexico. Concession titles may be revoked under certain circumstances in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the concession title. Partial assignments of
concession titles may be rescinded under certain circumstances established in the corresponding assignment agreements. Foreign investment in special companies incorporated under the Leyde Puertos may not exceed 49%, except through vehicles or securities deemed by applicable Mexican law as “neutral investments.”
Mexican Navigation Law
The Navigation and Maritime Commerce Law was enacted in 2006, published in the Official Gazette, and entered into force 30 days thereafter, with its latest amendments
effective as of January 23, 2014. This law: (i) strengthens the reservation of cabotage services for Mexican nationals engaged in maritime transportation and Mexican maritime transportation companies; (ii) establishes mechanisms and
procedures for the resolution of maritime disputes and litigation; and (iii) is generally protective of the maritime transportation industry. However, there can be no assurance that the percentage of Mexican-flagged vessels operating in
Mexico will continue to increase in the future.
The law gives priority to international treaties ratified by Mexico in order to promote uniformity in the type of regime applicable to specific circumstances, such as the
Hague-Visby Rules, the CLC/FUND Conventions, the 1976 Convention on Limitation of Liability, the Salvage Convention, COLREGS and MARPOL. (All vessels navigating Mexican waters are required to maintain protection and indemnity insurance at
a minimum.) The following are some of the most significant highlights of the legislation: customary provisions empowering authorities to conduct vessel inspections and incident investigations;
Listed below are some of the salient points of the legislation:
•
customary provisions enabling authorities to carry out inspections of vessels and investigations of incidents;
•
regulations concerning registration of vessels and waivers allowing Mexican companies to operate foreign flag vessels in otherwise reserved domains;
•
foreign vessels are obliged to designate a shipping agent in order to call at Mexican ports;
•
Mexican flag vessels are required to operate with Mexican crews only and cabotage is in principle reserved for Mexican vessels;
•
when a foreign vessel is abandoned by the owners with cargo on board, provisions of the legislation coordinate repatriation and temporary maintenance of the crew which the law deems ultimately to be
the joint and several liability of the owner and agent;
•
the carriage of passengers, cargo and towage in ports and pilotage are also regulated;
•
captains are responsible for damage and loss caused to vessels or ports due to negligence, lack of proper qualification, carelessness or bad faith, but are not responsible for damages caused by an
act of God or force majeure;
•
companies providing towage services must carry insurance to cover their liabilities to the satisfaction of the authorities;
•
pollution is regulated by international treaties; however this only covers CLC-type liabilities. Pollution in respect of other substances is dealt with under local legislation which has no
limitation. This is irrespective of any criminal proceedings or sanctions against the party responsible for the incident; and
•
maritime privileges are also considered within the law.
The law establishes time limits for commencement of proceedings with respect to 7 specific types of contracts as follows:
•
bareboat charter;
•
time charter;
•
voyage charter;
•
carriage of goods;
•
passengers;
•
salvage; and
•
towage.
Regulations of the Mexican Navigation Law
On March 4, 2015, the Regulations of the Mexican Navigation Law (“Reglamento de la Ley de Navegación yComercio Marítimos”) were published in Mexico’s Official Gazette and became effective 30 days thereafter. Enactment of the regulations represented a significant event in the merchant maritime sector and were aimed at
enhancing legal certainty and promoting trade. In particular, the regulations reduced administrative complexity by consolidating several existing laws or regulations into a single set of regulations.
The regulations develop various substantive aspects of the Mexican Navigation Law, including:
•
general provisions (definitions, guarantees, and maritime insurance);
•
extraordinary specialization of vessels, registration, national maritime registry, maritime agents and nautical education;
•
temporary navigation permits and permits for permanent stay, maneuver, nautical tourism and pollution prevention; and
•
revisions to conform hydrocarbons terminology to the new Hydrocarbons Law.
Following the adoption of the regulations, several topics covered by the Mexican Navigation Law are addressed in a single document, including merchant marine education,
maritime insurance, vessel inspection, maritime public registry, flag and registration of vessels and naval crafts, and marine prevention.
Mexican Energy Reforms
On October 31, 2024, the “Decree amending the fifth paragraph of Article 25, the sixth and seventh paragraphs of Article 27, and the fourth paragraph of Article 28 of the Political
Constitution of the United Mexican States, regarding strategic areas and companies" was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation (DOF). As a result of this constitutional reform, effective November 1, 2024, Petróleos Mexicanos
(“PEMEX”) changed its legal status from a “State Productive Enterprise” to a “State-Owned Public Enterprise,” substantially modifying the legal framework under which the national oil company operates
The constitutional decree established 180 calendar days, effective November 1, 2024, for the Mexican Congress (Congress of the Union) to implement the necessary amendments to the
secondary laws governing energy sector.
In accordance with the above, on March 18, 2025, the decree was published in the Official Gazette of the DOF, which issued, among others: the Law of the State-owned Company, Petróleos
Mexicanos; the Hydrocarbons Sector Law and various provisions of the Law of the Mexican Petroleum Fund for Stabilization and Development were amended, as well as the decree by which various provisions of the Hydrocarbon Revenue Law were
amended, added, and repealed. These provisions entered into force the day after their publication, that is, on March 19, 2025.
Among the relevant aspects of these laws, the following are noted:
Law of the State Public Enterprise, Petróleos Mexicanos (LEPEPM)
PEMEX is a state-owned entity (entidad paraestatal) of the Federal Public Administration, sectorized under the Ministry of Energy (Secretaría de Energía, or “SENER”), and operates under
principles of transparency, integrity, efficiency, equity, sustainability, accountability, and social responsibility, with the objective of preserving the Nation’s energy sovereignty, security, self-sufficiency, and energy justice.
PEMEX maintains a special legal regime in matters relating to subsidiaries, compensation, procurement, leasing, services and public works, assets, administrative liabilities, budgeting,
and debt, incorporating principles of sustainability, austerity, and accounting discipline. Of particular relevance to our commercial relationship, PEMEX is not subject to the General Government Accounting Law (Ley General de Contabilidad
Gubernamental) and will therefore continue to apply IFRS.
With respect to corporate governance, the LEPEPM establishes a new composition of PEMEX’s Board of Directors, reducing it to eight members, three of whom are Independent
Directors appointed by the Federal Executive and ratified by the Senate.
The Board of Directors is supported by the following committees: Audit; Human Resources, Compensation and Austerity; Strategy and Investments; Procurement, Leasing,
Services and Public Works; Subsidiaries; and Sustainability.
The LEPEPM allows PEMEX and its subsidiaries to enter into contracts with private parties or mixed development arrangements, including structures that enable them to
associate and share costs, expenses, investments, risks, and other aspects related to the activities under their control. However, such arrangements are subject to specific restrictions established under the law.
Restructuring of regulatory bodies: CRE and CNH
As an integral part of the energy reform, the dissolution of the Energy Regulatory Commission (Comisión Reguladora de Energía, or “CRE”) and the National Hydrocarbons Commission (Comisión
Nacional de Hidrocarburos, or “CNH”) as autonomous constitutional bodies was mandated. The functions of both entities were reassigned to the Ministry of Energy (Secretaría de Energía, or “SENER”), thereby eliminating the separation
between the State as operator (through PEMEX and the Federal Electricity Commission (Comisión Federal de Electricidad, or “CFE”)) and the State as regulator that had been in place since the 2013 energy reform.
In place of these autonomous entities, the National Energy Commission (Comisión Nacional de Energía, or “CNE”) was established as a decentralized administrative body (órgano administrativo
desconcentrado) within SENER, responsible for overseeing energy tariffs, generation and distribution permits, and technical aspects of national energy policy, but operating under the direct hierarchical authority of SENER.
This change centralizes the regulatory function within the Executive Branch and may give rise to potential or perceived conflicts of interest, as the same authority (SENER) is responsible both
for overseeing PEMEX as a state operator and for regulating the energy sector.
New Contract Allocation Rules and Elimination of Oil Bid Rounds
Under the reform, SENER now has exclusive authority to award exploration and production contracts for hydrocarbons, granting explicit preference to PEMEX. In the case of mixed-development
projects involving private parties alongside PEMEX, the state-owned company must retain at least a 40% participation interest and may not assign its rights to third parties without prior authorization.
If PEMEX elects not to exercise its preferential rights over a specific area, SENER may award contracts to private companies under the framework of Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production
Contracts (Contratos para la Exploración y Extracción de Hidrocarburos, or “CEE”), subject to specific guidelines issued by the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público).
As a result of these changes, the current administration has effectively terminated the oil bid rounds implemented between 2015 and 2018, through which exploration and production blocks were
competitively tendered to domestic and international private companies. Under the new framework, no additional oil and gas areas will be awarded to private parties through open public tenders. Although private companies may still
participate in specific PEMEX-led projects through mixed-development arrangements, such contracts will be subject to review to ensure conditions deemed more beneficial to the country by the government.
We continue to evaluate and analyze the implications of the energy reforms and new initiatives on its business. While a potential increase in PEMEX’s oil production could
generate greater demand for our specialized maritime services, the reform also increases our dependence on a single customer, eliminates potential alternative private clients as a result of the termination of oil bid rounds, and creates
regulatory uncertainty regarding future contracting procedures. We cannot predict whether PEMEX will increase its production or the net impact that these changes may have on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The Mexican government has implemented significant annual increases to the minimum wage. Effective January 1, 2025, the general minimum wage increased by 12%, from Ps.
248.93 to Ps. 278.80 per day, while the minimum wage in the Northern Border Free Zone increased from Ps. 374.89 to Ps. 419.88 per day. Subsequently, effective January 1, 2026, an additional 12% increase was implemented, raising the
general minimum wage to Ps. 312.41 per day and the border zone minimum wage to Ps. 470.26 per day.
These increases have resulted in higher employer-employee contributions to the Mexican Social Security Institute (Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, or “IMSS”) and the
National Workers’ Housing Fund Institute (Instituto del Fondo Nacional de la Vivienda para los Trabajadores, or “Infonavit”), as well as increases in vacation premiums and other benefits linked to the minimum wage. While these increases
have been considered in our financial planning, they have put pressure on our operating costs and may impact our profit margins.
Joint Tax Liability
Since the 2020 tax reform, the amendment to Article 26 of the Federal Tax Code (Código Fiscal de la Federación) remains in effect, expanding the scope of joint tax
liability. This reform included partners, shareholders, and participants in joint ventures of legal entities as jointly liable for the payment of taxes.
This provision applies to our Company in its capacity as a holding company, resulting in joint liability with our subsidiaries for the payment of federal taxes in the
event that such subsidiaries fail to comply with their tax obligations.
Absence of Structural Tax Reform and Audit Powers
During fiscal years 2023, 2024, and 2025, no comprehensive structural tax reform has been implemented in Mexico. The Federal Revenue Law (Ley de Ingresos de la Federación,
or “LIF”) and the Federal Expenditure Budget (Presupuesto de Egresos de la Federación, or “PEF”) for these years have primarily been limited to adjustments in projected revenues and budget allocations, without substantial changes to the
tax framework.
In the absence of a comprehensive tax reform, the Tax Administration Service (Servicio de Administración Tributaria, or “SAT”) has maintained its “deep monitoring”
program, or targeted audits, during these years, seeking to verify the proper calculation and payment of taxes through detailed reviews of taxpayers’ financial information. While the Company maintains consistency in its tax reporting and
complies with its tax obligations, it cannot be ruled out that the tax authorities, in exercising their audit powers, may determine differences that could result in additional tax payments, penalties, or surcharges.
Related Party Transactions
In accordance with the Mexican Income Tax Law, companies engaging in transactions with related parties, whether domestic or
foreign, are subject to limitations and tax obligations regarding the determination of transfer prices, which must be comparable to those that would be used between independent parties in similar transactions.
If the tax authorities were to review such prices and reject the determined amounts, they could require payment of the
corresponding taxes and related charges (including inflation adjustments and interest), as well as impose penalties of up to 100% of the updated amount of the omitted taxes.
The Company has significant transactions and relationships with related parties.
In this regard, the Company maintains documentation supporting that the terms of these transactions during 2025, 2024 and 2023 were carried out under conditions equivalent to those applicable between unrelated parties in comparable
transactions. The transfer pricing studies are currently in process.
Changes to Tax Rules:
In addition, changes have been made to the tax rules. The request for authorization to transfer shares at tax cost must now be
filed, which includes a notice to submit the notarized minutes of the shareholders' meeting held in connection with the subscription and payment of capital, once the shares have been transferred at tax cost. Various rules are amended,
eliminating Filing Form 127/ISR related to the notice that must be filed regarding the notarized minutes of the shareholders' meeting held in connection with the subscription and payment of capital, once shares are transferred at tax
cost, with Filing Form 78/ISR for the request for authorization to transfer shares at tax cost remaining in effect, to which the notice for filing the meeting minutes from the eliminated filing form has been added. Tax incentives have
also been incorporated into the Federal Revenue Law (LIF) establishing rules in correlation with the Thirty-fourth Transitory Article of said law, to regulate the forgiveness of fines, surcharges and enforcement expenses corresponding to
fiscal year 2023 or prior years of up to 100%, provided that such amounts do not exceed MXN 35 million, establishing that such incentive does not apply to legal entities that are not income tax taxpayers.
Our operations are subject to Mexican federal and state environmental laws, regulations and standards, including those related to environmental protection, as well as to
technical environmental requirements issued by the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (Secretaría de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales, or “SEMARNAT”).
Pursuant to the General Law of Ecological Balance and Environmental Protection LGEEPA and the General Law for the Prevention and Comprehensive Management of Waste (Ley General de Prevención
y Gestión Integral de los Residuos), SEMARNAT and other governmental agencies have issued Mexican Official Standards (Normas Oficiales Mexicanas, or “NOMs”) to regulate, among other matters, wastewater discharges, water supply, air
emissions, noise emissions, handling of hazardous substances, transportation, and generation of solid waste.
The terms of our port concessions impose specific obligations to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations.
In March 2025, a new Internal Regulation (Reglamento Interior) of SEMARNAT was published in the Federal Official Gazette (Diario Oficial de la Federación, or “DOF”), redefining and
strengthening the organization and operation of the agency, as well as the structure, authority, and responsibilities of its administrative units and decentralized administrative bodies.
International Environmental Regulations for the Maritime Sector
Our maritime operations are subject to increasingly stringent international environmental regulations. Among the most relevant are:
Sulfur limits in marine fuels (IMO 2020):
Since January 2020, the International Maritime Organization (the “IMO”) established a global limit of 0.5% sulfur content in marine fuels, reduced from the previous limit of 3.5%. This change has significantly increased our fuel costs, as
low-sulfur fuels that comply with this requirement are more expensive than traditional fuels.
Ballast water management:
The International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships’ Ballast Water and Sediments, which entered into force in 2017, requires vessels to install ballast water treatment systems to prevent the introduction of invasive
aquatic species. Compliance with this convention has required investments in specialized equipment for our vessels.
Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions:
In July 2023, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) adopted the Revised Greenhouse Gas Strategy (the “Revised GHG Strategy”), which replaced and strengthened the targets established in the initial 2018 strategy. The new strategy
sets a target of achieving net-zero emissions from international shipping by or around 2050, with interim reduction targets of at least 20% by 2030 and at least 70% by 2040, both compared to 2008 levels.
Additionally, the strategy introduces the concepts of “zero or near-zero emission fuels” (ZNZ fuels) and contemplates the potential implementation of market-based measures, including emissions
trading schemes or carbon taxes applicable to the maritime sector. Compliance with these evolving requirements and the technical regulations derived therefrom—such as the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), which has been in effect since
2023—may require investments in energy efficiency technologies, fleet modernization or the adoption of alternative fuels, which could materially increase our operating costs.
Under the U.S. Oil Pollution Act (the “OPA”), responsible parties, including vessel owners and operators, are subject to various requirements and may be exposed to
significant liability, and in some cases unlimited liability, for damages and cleanup costs, including natural resource damages resulting from discharges of oil, petroleum products, or related substances into U.S. waters.
In certain jurisdictions, claims for damages and cleanup costs may allow claimants to seek the arrest of vessels operated by the Company and their sale to satisfy a final
judgment. The existence of similar laws enacted by individual U.S. states, which impose varying compliance requirements and liabilities, creates the possibility of similar claims under state law.
In addition, several international conventions imposing similar liabilities for pollutant discharges have been adopted by other countries. If a spill occurs during the
operation of one of our vessels transporting petroleum products, and such spill affects the United States or another country with similar legislation to the OPA, we could be exposed to significant, and potentially unlimited, liability.
The U.S. Clean Water Act imposes strict restrictions and controls on the discharge of pollutants into U.S. waters, including incidental discharges from the normal
operation of commercial vessels, such as ballast water. The Clean Water Act and comparable state laws impose civil, criminal, and administrative penalties for unauthorized discharges of pollutants. In the event of such a discharge, we
could be subject to such penalties and to injunctive relief.
Additionally, our maritime transportation of oil and petroleum products subjects us to further regulations and specific liabilities associated with such activities. Laws
and international conventions adopted following the Exxon Valdez incident, particularly the OPA, may result in significant or even unlimited liability in the event of a spill. These laws also
impose additional insurance requirements on vessel owners. We believe we are in material compliance with these regulatory requirements.
We may also be liable for contamination at our former facilities in the United States or at third-party facilities where we have sent hazardous substances or waste, under
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA” or “Superfund”) and comparable state laws. CERCLA and similar state laws impose strict, joint, and several liability for investigation and remediation
costs, natural resource damages, certain health studies, and related costs, regardless of fault or legality of the conduct, on certain categories of persons.
These persons, commonly referred to as “potentially responsible parties” (“PRPs”), include current and former owners or operators of a facility, as well as those who
arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances at such facility. In addition, other PRPs, such as adjacent landowners or third parties, may bring tort claims or cost recovery actions for toxic damages under CERCLA,
comparable state laws, or common law.
Environmental Compliance Status
Failure to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations may result in administrative or civil fines, temporary or permanent shutdowns of operations,
injunctive measures, or criminal prosecution. As of March 31, 2026, we believe that all of our material facilities and operations are in material compliance with applicable environmental laws in Mexico, the United States, and applicable
international conventions. As of the date of this report, there are no material pending judicial or administrative proceedings against us related to environmental matters.
Ongoing compliance with existing environmental laws and regulations, as well as with future, more stringent regulations, may require additional investments in equipment,
technology, and training, or may increase our operating costs. We cannot predict the effect that the adoption of additional or more stringent environmental laws and regulations may have on companies engaged in our lines of business, nor
the specific impact on our results of operations, cash flows, required capital expenditures, or financial condition.
Other Regulations
Grupo TMM and its subsidiaries are subject to laws and regulations of other countries, as well as international standards governing maritime transportation and safety regulations for
environmental protection.
The Company recognizes the growing importance and relevance of environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) criteria as a key and fundamental element for responsible
business management and long-term value creation. In Mexico, beginning in 2026, publicly listed companies will be required to disclose information on ESG risks and sustainability performance in accordance with IFRS Sustainability
Disclosure Standards IFRS S1 and IFRS S2. In this context, the Company is undergoing a gradual and structured process to align with ESG requirements, addressing both investor expectations and the evolving regulatory framework applicable
to issuers.
For 2026, the Company expects to comply with the primary ESG disclosure requirements, including information related to corporate governance, risk management, and relevant social aspects, in
line with applicable standards and other regulatory provisions, working in collaboration with a group of specialized advisors.
With respect to governance, the Company expects to strengthen oversight and accountability in ESG matters, with the objective of enhancing transparency and comparability of information for investors and other
stakeholders.
Insurance
Our business is affected by a number of risks, including mechanical failure of vessels and other transportation equipment, collisions, property loss of vessels and other
transportation equipment, piracy, cargo loss or damage, as well as business interruption due to political circumstances in Mexico and in foreign countries, hostilities and labor strikes. In addition, the operation of any oceangoing vessel
is subject to the inherent possibility of catastrophic marine disaster, including oil spills and other environmental accidents, and the liabilities arising from owning and operating vessels in international trade.
We maintain insurance to cover the risk of partial or total loss of or damage to all of our assets, including, but not limited to, harbor and seagoing vessels, port
facilities, port equipment, land facilities and offices. In particular, we maintain marine hull and machinery and war risk insurance on our vessels, which covers the risk of actual or constructive total loss. Additionally, we have
protection and indemnity insurance for damage caused by our operations to third persons. With certain exceptions, we do not carry insurance covering the loss of revenue resulting from a downturn in our operations or resulting from vessel
off-hire time on certain vessels. In certain instances, and depending on the ratio of insurance claims to insurance premiums paid, we may choose to self-insure our over-the-road equipment following prudent guidelines. We believe that our
current insurance coverage is adequate to protect against the accident-related risks involved in the conduct of our business and that we maintain a level of coverage that is consistent with industry practice. However, we cannot assure you
that our insurance would be sufficient to cover the cost of damages suffered by us or damages to others, that any particular claim will be paid or that such insurance will continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates in the
future. OPA 90, by imposing potentially unlimited liability upon owners, operators and bareboat charters for certain oil pollution accidents in the United States, made liability insurance more expensive for ship-owners and operators.

On March 31, 2014, the Company, through its subsidiary IDN, entered into a sale and leaseback agreement with UNIFIN Financiera, SAPI de CV, SOFOM ENR (UNIFIN), under which
IDN sold to UNIFIN the floating dock "ARD-10", the floating dock "ABDF 2", and the tugboat "Catherine M" for approximately $55.6 million. At the same time, IDN and UNIFIN entered into a 4-year pure lease agreement for the three assets in
order to maintain their operating and revenue-generating capacity. In 2018, the Company repurchased the floating drydock “ARD-10” and the towing vessel “Catherine M” from UNIFIN, and IDN extended the operating lease of the floating
drydock “ABDF 2” by an initial term of two years. In April 2020, IDN and UNIFIN entered into an additional two-year extension of the “ABDF 2” operating lease, expiring on June 2024, which was repurchased from UNIFIN on the same date,
fully concluding the contract.
The Company has applied the revaluation model to its land and buildings, in accordance with IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment”. The revalued amounts of these assets
are determined through market values calculated by external professional appraisers, every five years or earlier if market factors indicate a substantial change in fair value. The last revaluation of these assets was performed in December
2024, recognizing a revaluation gain of 23 million pesos. See Notes 4.8 and 22 of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein.
In June 2019, we entered into a financing agreement with PNC Bank, N.A., guaranteed by EXIM Bank, to acquire an RTG crane to replace the crane used in our automotive
sector operations at Aguascalientes. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company received loan proceeds in the amount of US$860,000 (approximately 85% of the purchase price of the crane), at a fixed rate of 4.40% per annum, with semi-annual
payments of principal and interest, and maturing in July 2024, with the financing liquidated on the same date.
During the third quarter of 2021, we refurbished three mud vessels (“Redfish 4,” “Beluga 2” and “Go Canopus”) prior to commencement of their operations under a charter
contract with PEMEX, effective April 2024.
Additionally, there is a real estate property pledged as collateral for a bank loan with Bancomext. It is worth noting that certain real estate properties previously held
as collateral with Banco del Bajío, Banco Autofin, and PNC BANK NA have already been released, as the first loan was settled in 2023 and the remaining two in 2024.
In August of 2022, the companies TMM Logistics, S.A. de C.V., Inmobiliaria TMM, S.A. de C.V. and Almacenadora de Depósito Moderno, S.A. de C.V. disposed of five properties
to liquidate certain liabilities valued at $118.7 million.
In 2022, the Company sold the supply vessel “Isla Colorado” to Buzca Soluciones de Ingeniería, S.A.
In 2023, two supply vessels were converted to mud vessels, which began operations during the first quarter of 2024. The vessels were acquired in January
2025 through financing granted by Inbursa for $40.5 million dollars, maturing in 2031 at an annual rate of SOFR + 5%, with semi-annual payments of principal and interest. This transaction involves the maritime mortgage guarantee of both
vessels. Additionally, in February 2024, a financing agreement was signed with Eximbank (Atrafin LLC dba America Trade & Financie Company) for $2.3 million at an annual rate of 6.89% with semi-annual payments of principal and
interest, maturing in March 2029.
In 2024, a new floating dock was acquired through financing provided by Bancomext for $16.8 million, equivalent to approximately 85% of its value at a rate of SOFR + 2.35% with quarterly
payments of principal and interest and maturity in 2034. This transaction involves a mortgage security on a real estate property, as well as the maritime mortgage security of the acquired dock itself.
Construction in progress corresponds to studies related to the hydrocarbon terminal project in Tuxpan.

ITEM 5
OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
Executive Overview
We generate our revenues and cash flows by providing our customers with value-added multimodal transportation and logistics services, such as warehousing, storage
management, ports and terminals operations, cargo handling and logistics support. Our commercial and strategic alliances allow us to market a full range of services in the context of a total supply chain distribution process. Through such
alliances, we have been able to benefit not only from synergies, but also from the operational expertise of our alliance partners, enhancing our own competitiveness.
Our operating results are generally affected by a variety of factors, including macroeconomic conditions, fluctuations in exchange rates, operating performance of our
business units, changes in applicable regulations and fluctuations in oil prices. The effect of changes in these factors impacts our revenues and operating results.
Over the last few years, we have made and continue to make significant changes to our business, including:
•
Changes in management: The Company has made various changes to its senior management team. Effective September 1, 2020, Mrs. Vanessa Serrano Cuevas assumed the
role of Chief Executive Officer. In 2021, Mr. Axel Xavier Vera de Castillo assumed the role of Chief Information Officer. As of 2022, Luis Manuel Ocejo Rodríguez, Christian Venus Vázquez Coria, Gerardo Meza Vázquez, Alejandro
Romero Rodríguez and Víctor Velázquez Romo, assumed the positions of Deputy General Director, Legal Director, Internal Audit Manager, Director of Maritime Operations and Director of Maritime Infrastructure, respectively. In
September 2023, Verónica Tego Sánchez assumed the role of Chief Financial Officer. In September 2024, Francisco Javier Estrada Serafin joined the Company as Director of Operations Logistics, and in April 2025, Mauricio Padruno
González joined the Company as Commercial Director.
•
Updating our digital technology platforms:
Grupo TMM continued the upgrade, enhancement and, where appropriate, replacement of its technology platforms, strengthening operational efficiency and ensuring
alignment with corporate policies. Progress was made in the systematization of processes and standardization of operations, with all platforms currently operating in cloud environments (primarily Amazon Web Services), improving
availability, scalability and overall performance.
In telecommunications infrastructure, voice and data services were optimized through comparative procurement processes to ensure cost efficiency and service quality;
progress was made in the deployment of fiber optic connectivity and in increasing internet capacity where feasible; and legacy equipment was replaced with next-generation technology, enhancing network stability, security and operational
performance.
Additionally, the Company advanced in the integration of technology platforms to consolidate them into more robust and interoperable solutions, facilitating information
exchange and process harmonization across the organization. In particular, ongoing enhancements to SAP and related systems addressed regulatory and corporate requirements while enabling new functionalities, strengthening the generation
and analysis of strategic information for decision-making
See also Item 4: "Information on the Company: Systems and Technology."
•
Expanding our Maritime Operations: We have strengthened and streamlined our Maritime Operations in recent years, developing the business into our most profitable
segment. We remain focused on expanding our Maritime Operations to add specialized vessels to our fleet in order to meet market requirements for new generation vessels with higher-rated and deeper-water capabilities. As part of
this strategy, in August 2021, we entered into a long-term contract with PEMEX to operate three specialized vessels known as “mud vessels”, which we renewed for three additional years. In 2024, we began operating two additional
mud vessels with PEMEX, and in January 2025, these vessels were acquired through financing provided by Inbursa. During 2024, We added two tankers to our fleet: one for the transportation of petroleum products and another for gas
transportation in Mexican and international waters, In October 2025, we resumed steel transportation services to South America under a more flexible and lower-risk business model, based on spot voyages and the chartering of
third-party vessels. In addition, we have continued our efforts to diversify our customer base, as well as implemented a strategic cost reduction plan to offset some of the instability in the oil industry. See Item 4. “Information
on the Company - Business Strategy - Expansion and Improvement of our Maritime Operations.”
•
Maintaining efficient and profitable operations: As part of the business segment analysis, in December 2022, the Company concluded its steel
transportation operations to South America. Further, at the end of 2023 and beginning of 2024, the Company closed certain Container Maintenance and Repair locations, with the Aguascalientes location remaining.In October 2025, the Company deconsolidated its warehousing operationsas a result of the loss of control over such operations. Additionally, parcel transportation
services between the ports of Houston and Coatzacoalcos concluded in December 2025
Development of Maritime Infrastructure operations: In order to strengthen this segment, in 2022, the Shipyard business became a Business Division. The shipyard,
located in the port of Tampico, provides ship repair and dry dock services to more than 30 vessels per year. In 2024, a floating dock was purchased, replacing the ARD-10 dock as it had reached the end of its useful life. This has
expanded our capabilities to serve deeper vessels, reaching a 94% market share. See ITEM 4 “Information on the Company - Business Strategies - Expansion of our Marine Operations”.
•
Development of Port, Terminal and Logistics Operations: In January 2025, this division expanded its services in the automotive industry, extending its scope from
port operations to the comprehensive supervision of the logistics chain from the manufacturing plant, initiating operations in Puebla. See ITEM 4 “Information on the Company - Business Strategies - Expansion of our Marine
Operations”.
•
Reducing our corporate overhead: The Company maintains an ongoing review of its administrative expenses, with the objective of ensuring an efficient cost
structure aligned with its growth.
•
Sale of certain subsidiaries: In recent years we have sold certain non-strategic subsidiaries in an effort to streamline our operations and reduce operating
costs. We did not sell any of our subsidiary companies in 2021, 2022 and 2024. During fiscal year 2023, two companies were sold, TMM Almacenadora, S.A.P.I. of C.V. (including the AIFA concession) and Servicios Tecnológico ST, S.A.
of C.V. to an unrelated party.

Maritime Operations
Revenues from maritime operations increased 12.3% to $1,440.9 million in 2025, compared to $1,283.0 million in 2024, and represented 75.4% of our revenue. The increase is primarily attributable to the
recognition of a full year of operations of two supply vessels that commenced operations during the first quarter of 2024, as well as the fuel oil transportation service that commenced in June 2024; additionally, in October 2025 we
resumed steel transportation services to South America on a spot voyage basis.
Maritime Infrastructure Operations
Revenues from maritime infrastructure operations increased 25.0% to $327.8 million in 2025, compared to $262.2 million in 2024, and represented 17.2% of our revenue. The increase is
primarily attributable to the commissioning of a new drydock in 2025, which enabled the Company to service vessels requiring major repairs.
Ports, Terminals and Logistics Operations
Revenues from ports, terminals and logistics operations increased by 34.2% to $83.1 million in 2025, compared to $61.9 million in 2024, and represented 4.4% of total revenues. The
increase during the fiscal year was driven by the operational strategy implemented in the intermodal terminal business during the year, as well as an increase in automotive sector activity, factors that contributed to higher volumes and
improved operational efficiency.
Warehousing Operations
In October 2025, the Company ceased to consolidate Warehousing Operations as a result of the loss of control, in accordance with IFRS 10. Accordingly, its results are included only up to that date, and the
figures for the period are not directly comparable with those of the prior year.
Operating Income (Loss)
Operating income (loss) reflects revenues less operating costs and expenses. Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2025, increased 56.4% to $300.9 million, compared to $212.7 million for the year
ended December 31, 2024. This increase was attributable to the recognition of a full year of operations of two supply vessels and one tanker vessel that commenced during 2024, together with the transition of the supply vessels to a
Company-owned scheme as of February 2025, as well as the commissioning of a new drydock, which enabled the Company to service vessels requiring major repairs.
The following table presents information regarding operating income (loss) by business segment for the years
ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Maritime Operations
Operating Income from maritime operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, increased to $368.1, compared to $213.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The
variance is primarily attributable to the growth in supply vessel operations, driven by the recognition of a full year of operations of two supply vessels and one tanker vessel that commenced during 2024, together with the transition of
the supply vessels to a Company-owned scheme as of February 2025.
Maritime infrastructure operations
Operating Income from maritime infrastructure operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased to $86.2 million, compared to $68.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This
increase was primarily attributable to the commissioning of a new drydock, which enabled the Company to service vessels requiring major repairs.
Port, terminals and logistic operations
Operating loss for the ports, terminals and logistics segment for the year ended December 31, 2025 reduced its loss by 71.6%, reporting a loss of $7.3 million, compared to a loss of $25.7
million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The improvement during the fiscal year was driven by the strategic closure of certain container maintenance and repair locations, as well as moderate improvements across other operations,
partially offset by the reclassification of certain administrative expenses.
Warehousing Operations
The variation in this segment is primarily explained by the deconsolidation of the business in October 2025, as a result of which its results are included only up to that
date and are not directly comparable with the prior year.

Net financing cost recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025 was $(10.6) million, compared to a net
financial cost of $97.9 million recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the financial cost arising from the loans used to acquire the supply vessels and the floating
drydock. The net financial cost in 2025 included net foreign exchange gain of $135.8 million, while in 2024 it included a net foreign exchange gain of $52.0 million. These are derived from the contracting of loans in Dollars, in
addition to the appreciation of the Mexican Peso at the end of the year-end 2025.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, current income tax expense amounted to $2.4 million and a deferred income tax benefit of $0.4 million, resulting in a net income tax
expense of $2.0 million, compared to a current income tax expense of $8.7 million and a deferred income tax benefit of $8.7 million, resulting in a net income tax expense of $0.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Foreign Currency Risk
The majority of the Company's revenues are denominated or referenced in U.S. dollars, a significant portion of its debt is denominated in such currency, and approximately
49% of its costs and expenses are denominated in Mexican pesos. Accordingly, the Company is exposed to risks arising from fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso.
While a significant portion of revenues is linked to the U.S. dollar, in certain cases collections are made in Mexican pesos at the exchange rate prevailing on the payment
date (the FIX This is a variant of the various existing exchange rate regimes applied in Mexican markets, and it aims to stabilize the exchange rate published by Banco de México). This may give rise to temporary differences between the
accounting recognition of revenues and the receipt of cash flows, as well as mismatches between such flows and U.S. dollar-denominated financial obligations, which may impact the Company's operating results and liquidity.
As a result of the evolution in the structure of its revenues, financing and operations, the Company assessed the factors set forth in IAS 21 "The Effects of Changes in
Foreign Exchange Rates" and determined that the U.S. dollar more appropriately reflects its primary economic environment. Consequently, effective January 1, 2026, the U.S. dollar is the Company's functional currency.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company remains exposed to foreign exchange risks arising primarily from the interaction between cash flows denominated in Mexican
pesos, local currency operating costs and U.S. dollar-denominated financial obligations.
The Company has sought to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk by maintaining a significant portion of its debt denominated in U.S. dollars, which contributes to a
partial natural hedge. Currently, approximately 89.6% of the Company's debt is denominated in U.S. dollars, including liabilities associated with long-term lease arrangements.
Although the Company does not currently hold foreign exchange hedging derivative instruments, it has in the past evaluated, and may in the future enter into, financial
derivative instruments denominated in Mexican pesos or other currencies, with the objective of mitigating the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on its operating costs, administrative expenses and financial results. See ITEM 11.
"Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk — Foreign Currency Risk."
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our business requires significant levels of capital investment and ongoing expenditures, including, among others, improvements to ports and terminals, infrastructure and
technology, acquisition and maintenance of vessels and other equipment, as well as lease arrangements and repairs. Our principal sources of liquidity include cash flows from operations, available cash balances, asset sales and debt
financing. Grupo TMM is essentially a holding company that conducts the majority of its operations and holds a substantial portion of its assets through direct and indirect subsidiaries. Accordingly, it depends primarily on dividends and
administrative service fees charged to its operating subsidiaries to generate cash flow and meet its obligations, including debt service.
As of December 31, 2025, approximately 92.1% of the Company's consolidated debt was held at the subsidiary level, with such subsidiaries being responsible for servicing
their respective obligations based on their own operating cash flows. Management believes that this structure allows for the adequate fulfillment of financial obligations; however, it is subject to certain limitations, including legal
restrictions in Mexico on the distribution of dividends. The following table sets forth the breakdown of financial obligations, including lease liabilities, by entity as of December 31, 2025:

Under Mexican law, subsidiaries may only distribute dividends once their shareholders have approved the corresponding financial statements, and provided there are no
accumulated losses to be absorbed. Additionally, at least 5% of net income must be allocated to a legal reserve until it reaches 20% of the capital stock (calculated based on the actual nominal subscription price received by such
subsidiary for all issued and outstanding shares at that time).
As of December 31, 2025, the Company's total debt amounted to $1,262.2 million, of which $1,046.0 million corresponded to bank financing, $12.9 million to
non-institutional creditors, $157.1 million to related parties and $46.2 million to lease liabilities recognized in accordance with IFRS 16. Of such debt, $323.6 million corresponded to short-term obligations while $938.6 million
corresponded to long-term debt.
March 31, 2026, the Company's total debt amounted to $1,201.8 million, of which $982.2 million corresponded to bank financing, $10.5 million to non-institutional
creditors, $164.0 million to related parties and $45.1 million to lease liabilities recognized in accordance with IFRS 16 “Leases”. Of such debt, $336.3 million corresponded to short-term obligations while $865.5 million
corresponded to long-term debt.
In accordance with IFRS, transaction costs related to financing arrangements are recognized as part of the corresponding financial liability, except in the case of
leases, which are presented as lease liabilities, unless their term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset is of low value.
As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive covenants set forth in its financing agreements.
The Company's total stockholders' equity, including non-controlling interest, amounted to $2,418.0 million as of December 31, 2025, resulting in a leverage ratio
(debt to equity) of approximately 0.46.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had a net working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $494.1 million. As of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, net
working capital amounted to $548.4 million, $144.4 million and $(89.6) million, respectively.
Variations in working capital are primarily attributable to changes in accounts receivable arising from the commencement of new project operations, as well as
accounting reclassifications and variations in operating liabilities.
While the Company continues to evaluate opportunities to diversify its revenue sources, Management believes that its current financial resources, including expected
cash flows from its subsidiaries, are sufficient to meet its operating, investment and debt service needs in the short and medium term.
The decrease in net working capital from 2025 to March 31, 2026 was due to a decline in accounts receivable and an increase in operating liabilities. The increase in
net working capital from December 2024 to 2025 was primarily driven by higher cash generated from the Loderos vessel operations. The increase in net working capital from December 2023 to 2024 was primarily driven by higher accounts
receivable resulting from the operations of two new vessels. While we continue to seek ways to diversify our revenues, we believe that our financial resources, including cash expected to be generated by our subsidiaries, are
sufficient to meet our current liquidity and working capital needs. See "—Executive Overview."
Information on Cash Flows
Summary cash flow data for the years ended December 31, 2025,2024 and 2023
is as follows:
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's consolidated cash position increased by approximately $287.5 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase
was primarily attributable to positive operating cash flows of $345.6 million, driven by the collection of services rendered in prior periods and the recovery of accounts receivable, as well as positive financing cash flows of
$656.4 million, arising from new credit facilities obtained during the year. These effects were partially offset by investing cash out flows of $685.7 million, associated primarily with investments in productive assets, and a
negative foreign exchange effect on cash of $28.8 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, our consolidated cash position increased by approximately $108.7 million from the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase
is primarily attributable to the operation of two new, higher-capacity mud vessels, as well as the new fuel oil transportation contract and the financing for the purchase of the floating dock.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated cash position increased by approximately $3.6 million from the year ended December 31, 2022.
Our Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash flows provided by operating activities amounted to $345.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $240.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
This increase was primarily due to higher operating cash generation driven by improved business results, the collection of services rendered in prior periods, and the onboarding of new customers, particularly in maritime and
infrastructure operations, as well as improvements in operational efficiency and working capital management.
Net cash flows used in operating activities amounted to $240.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $89.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The
increase is primarily due to the operation of two new, higher-capacity mud vessels and the new fuel oil transportation contract.
Net cash flows generated from operating activities amounted to $89.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $166.7 million
generated from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022. This variation is primarily due to the closure of locations within the Container Maintenance and Repair business, as well as lower revenues in the
Warehousing business.

Business Plan
The Company is focused on consolidating its growth by strengthening its maritime, infrastructure and logistics businesses, through a strategy grounded in financial discipline,
operational efficiency and the development of strategic alliances.
In the maritime segment, the Company seeks to expand and diversify its portfolio of specialized vessels, particularly in bulk cargo transportation, hydrocarbons and offshore
services, both in Mexico and in international markets. This growth will be supported by medium- and long-term contracts that enhance revenue visibility and asset profitability.
In maritime infrastructure, the Company will continue to capitalize on its strategic positioning and technical capabilities, including the expansion of its maintenance and repair
services through the development of new shipyards and the optimization of its installed capacity, with the objective of serving a broader range of vessels and strengthening its market presence.
In the logistics segment, the Company will seek to enhance its operations, particularly in automotive logistics, through the expansion of its customer base and the strengthening of
long-term contracts that drive cash flow stability and operational efficiency.
Additionally, the Company is evaluating the development of port infrastructure projects in Tuxpan, Veracruz, focused on specialized terminals for the handling of hydrocarbons, bulk
cargo and general cargo, leveraging the strategic location of its assets to capture growth opportunities in trade and the energy sector.
On a cross-cutting basis, the Company will continue to promote strategic alliances that enable it to accelerate growth, optimize capital deployment and strengthen its positioning in
key markets, while maintaining a disciplined focus on cost control, cash flow generation and the strengthening of its financial structure.
The Company has also commenced the implementation of sustainability initiatives, in line with applicable regulatory requirements in Mexico, with the objective of strengthening its
operational processes and practices. As part of these initiatives, the Company is evaluating alternatives aimed at energy efficiency in its facilities, including self-supply schemes, with a gradual and prudent approach to capital
allocation.
Additionally, the Company will continue to strengthen its information technology capabilities through the digitalization and integration of its operational and administrative
processes, incorporating data analytics tools, automation and management systems that optimize asset performance, improve operational efficiency and enhance real-time decision-making across its entire value chain.
As a complementary measure, the Company will continue to strengthen its planning, control and execution processes, with the objective of ensuring the efficient implementation of its
strategy and the sustainability of its results over time.

The Company maintains lease agreements related primarily to land and facilities used in its operations, which are recognized as right-of-use assets and lease
liabilities in accordance with IFRS 16. Such leases do not involve the transfer of ownership of the underlying assets and form part of the Company's normal operating structure. Additionally, the Company enters into short-term vessel
charter arrangements, for which it applies the IFRS 16 practical expedient to recognize them in profit or loss over the lease term.
Transportation Equipment and Other Operating Leases
We lease transportation and container handling equipment, our corporate office building and other assets under agreements classified as operating leases. The terms
of these lease agreements range from 1 to 8 years and contain standard provisions for these types of operating lease arrangements. The liabilities associated with operating leases are presented as lease liabilities and the
corresponding asset is presented as a right-of-use asset, unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset is of low value, for which the Company applies the IFRS 16 practical expedient.
Strategic Asset Financing
RTG Crane (Logistics Segment)
In June 2019, the Company entered into a financing agreement with PNC Bank, N.A., guaranteed by EXIM Bank, for $860 thousand U.S. dollars (approximately 85% of the
asset’s value), bearing a fixed interest rate of 4.40%, with semiannual payments of principal and interest and maturity in July 2024, for the acquisition of a rubber-tired gantry (RTG) crane used in its automotive logistics
operations. The financing was fully repaid at maturity.
Mud Vessels (Maritime Segment)
In February 2024, the Company entered into a financing agreement with Atrafin LLC, guaranteed by EXIM Bank, for $2.3 million U.S. dollars, bearing a fixed interest
rate of 6.89%, with semiannual payments of principal and interest and maturity in March 2029, to fund working capital related to the conversion of vessels used in specialized maritime operations. As of December 31, 2025, the
outstanding balance amounted to $29.2 million.
Additionally, in January 2025, the Company entered into a financing agreement with Grupo Financiero Inbursa for $40.5 million U.S. dollars, bearing interest at SOFR
+ 5%, with semiannual payments of principal and interest and maturity in January 2031, for the acquisition of two specialized vessels. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance amounted to $698.7 million.
Floating Dry Dock (Maritime Infrastructure Segment)
In January 2025, the Company incorporated a floating dry dock financed by Bancomext for $16.8 million U.S. dollars (approximately 85% of its value), bearing interest
at SOFR + 2.35%, with quarterly payments of principal and interest and maturity in October 2034. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance amounted to $293.4 million.
Other Debt and Financing
Historical Refinancing
In January 2011, the Company, through its subsidiary TMM, entered into two private credit facilities totaling $6.0 million U.S. dollars, bearing a fixed interest
rate of 11.25%, including a two-year grace period for principal payments and an original maturity in January 2016, in order to improve the amortization profile of its receivables securitization program. Following partial repayments
between 2017 and 2019, the remaining balance of $3.0 million U.S. dollars has been refinanced through several maturity extensions through December 2028. As of December 31, 2025, the total outstanding balance amounted to $87.3
million.
In July 2020, the Company entered into two unsecured loans of $6.0 million each, with an original maturity in October 2020. These loans were subject to several
renegotiations, including partial repayments made between 2021 and 2023, as well as successive maturity extensions through 2024. As of December 31, 2025, the total outstanding balance amounted to $6.6 million. As a result of a
subsequent renegotiation, a 39.6% reduction of the outstanding balance was agreed, resulting in a revised balance of $4.0 million, payable in two installments during March and April 2026. As of the date of this report, the
outstanding balance amounts to $2.0 million.
Technology Financing (Operational Support)
In March and October 2019, the Company entered into two credit facilities with Hewlett-Packard Operations México, S. de R.L. de C.V., for $607.8 thousand and $201.6
thousand U.S. dollars, respectively, to enhance its technology systems. These facilities bore fixed interest rates of 6.84% and 6.13%, respectively, with monthly payments of principal and interest and maturities in March 2025 and
October 2024. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company obtained a three-month grace period on principal payments (from May to July 2020), extending the maturity of both facilities accordingly.
In March and December 2020, the Company entered into three additional facilities with the same counterparty for $86.6 thousand, $96.9 thousand and $252.1 thousand
U.S. dollars, respectively, under substantially the same terms and conditions, bearing fixed interest rates ranging from 4.58% to 7.16%, with maturities between 2025.
In July 2022, the amortization terms of all facilities were extended by one year, with a 0.25% increase in interest rates. Subsequently, in September 2023, the
agreements were renegotiated under substantially the same terms and conditions, including an additional 0.25% increase in interest rates and an extension of maturity to March 31, 2027. As of December 31, 2025, the total outstanding
balance amounted to $5.4 million.
Relevant Bank Credit Facility (Working Capital)

On November 26, 2018, the Company restructured the amortization schedule of a financing agreement with Daimler Financial Services México, S. de R.L. de C.V., for
$28.0 million, bearing a fixed annual interest rate of 12.9%, with monthly payments of principal and interest and original maturity in October 2021. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company obtained two three-month grace
periods on principal payments (from April to September 2020), extending the maturity to January 2022. In October 2021, the amortization schedule was further extended to July 2024 under the same terms. In August 2022, a new agreement
was executed with the same institution to extend the amortization period, for an outstanding balance of $15.4 million, bearing a fixed interest rate of 13.0%, with monthly payments of principal and interest and maturity in December
2024. As of December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance was $0.32 million, which was fully repaid during the first quarter of 2025.
Working Capital Credit Facilities (Logistics Operations)
In December 2014, the Company, through its subsidiary TMM Logistics, entered into two credit facilities with Banco Autofin México for $21.6 million and $8.4 million,
respectively. These facilities bore variable interest rates referenced to 28-day TIIE plus 450 and 350 basis points, respectively, with monthly payments of principal and interest and maturity in March 2022. As a result of the
COVID-19 pandemic, the Company obtained grace periods on principal payments and maturity extensions, including a four-month deferral (May to August 2020), extending the maturity accordingly. The $8.4 million facility was repaid in
July 2022, while the $21.6 million facility was repaid in January 2023.
Additionally, in November 2018, the Company entered into a credit facility with Banco Autofin México for $20.0 million, bearing a variable interest rate of 28-day
TIIE plus 550 basis points, with monthly payments of principal and interest and original maturity in November 2023. This facility was also subject to grace periods and maturity extensions, including an additional six-month deferral,
extending its maturity to September 2024. As of December 31, 2023, this facility had an effective interest rate of 16.89% and an outstanding balance of $3.0 million and was fully repaid on March 27, 2024.
Sale and Leaseback Transactions (Asset Optimization)
In March 2014, the Company, through its subsidiary IDN, entered into a sale and leaseback transaction with UNIFIN Financiera, S.A.P.I. de C.V., SOFOM E.N.R., with
respect to the floating dry dock “ARD-10”, the floating dry dock “ABDF 2”, and the tugboat “Catherine M”, for an approximate amount of $55.6 million, under an operating lease structure, in order to maintain its operational capacity.
In 2018, the Company repurchased the “ARD-10” dry dock and the “Catherine M” tugboat, while the lease of the “ABDF 2” dry dock was extended through June 2024, at which time it was also repurchased, fully terminating the transaction.
Additionally, the Company, through its subsidiary TMM Logistics, entered into a similar transaction with UNIFIN for seven cranes used in its container maintenance
and repair business, for an approximate amount of $6.0 million, under an operating lease structure. This financing was extended in 2022 under similar terms and was fully repaid in March 2024.
In 2011, the Company entered into two credit facilities with INPIASA, S.A. de C.V. to finance ADEMSA’s agricultural activities, for an aggregate amount of

In accordance with IFRS 16 Leases, Grupo TMM recognizes right-of-use assets and the corresponding lease liabilities, except for short-term and low-value
leases. Lease payments are allocated between principal and interest, with the interest component recognized as a finance cost over the lease term.
In recent years, a significant portion of the revenue generated by our maritime operations business has been achieved through contracts with Helmsley Management,
Celanese Operations Mexico and PEMEX . In 2025, the Company earned revenues from PEMEX, CFEnergía and Celanese Operations Mexico, representing 61.9%, 27.8% and 7.5%, respectively, of the revenues generated by our marine operations
business, while in 2024, the Company earned revenues from PEMEX, CFEnergia and Celanese Operations Mexico, representing 62.8%, 20.6% and 15.1%, respectively, of the revenues generated by our marine operations business. The primary
purchasers of our maritime operations services are multinational oil, gas and chemical companies. The future success of our maritime operations business depends upon our ability to capitalize on growth in the Mexican oil and gas
sector by increasing our level of services to these companies.
The future success of our logistics, ports and terminals businesses depends upon our ability to enter into contracts with large automotive manufacturers, retail and
consumer goods companies and to become a supplier for Mexican government entities, providing integrated logistics and shipping services, as well as to develop our liquids terminal project. Our primary skills that make us competitive
are: (i) our logistics expertise, (ii) our ability to continue developing logistics and other land transportation infrastructure, and (iii) our ability to provide state-of-the-art systems to provide logistics solutions.
The ability to satisfy our obligations under our debt in the future will depend upon our future performance, including our ability to increase revenues significantly
and control expenses. Future operating performance depends upon prevailing economic, financial, business and competitive conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. As noted elsewhere in this Annual Report,
any resurgence of a pandemic, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although global economic activity has recovered as vaccination programs have expanded, new variants of
COVID-19 continue to emerge, and governmental efforts to control or mitigate the spread of these variants or other infectious diseases may trigger renewed restrictions with negative effects on global trade and the demand for our
services. See Item 3. “Risk Factors - Risks Relating to our Business - Our business has been and may continue to be adversely affected by the new outbreaks of the COVID-19 pandemic, and may be adversely affected by future pandemics,
epidemics or other outbreaks of infectious diseases and governmental responses thereto” and Item 4. “Information on the Company - Recent Developments - COVID-19 Pandemic.” Our ability to refinance our debt and take other actions
will depend on, among other things, our financial condition at the time, the restrictions in the instruments governing our debt and other factors, including market conditions, the macroeconomic environment and such variables as the
Peso/dollar exchange rate, benchmark money market rates in Pesos and Dollars and the success of reforms and amendments to the Hydrocarbons Law, which are beyond our control.
We have funded capital expenditures with funds from operating cash flows and with the capital increase expect to seek additional financing primarily through secured
credit arrangements and asset-backed financings for additional capital expenditures.
Our Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS as issued by the IASB.
We have identified certain key accounting policies on which our financial condition and results of operations are dependent. These key accounting policies most often
involve complex matters, may be based on estimates and involve a significant amount of judgment. In the opinion of our management, our critical accounting policies under IFRS are those related to:
Fair value measurement
Management uses valuation techniques to measure the fair value of its properties. This results in Management developing estimates and assumptions based on market information and using observable data
that would be used by market participants to assign a price to the asset. These fair value estimates for these non-financial assets can vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm’s length transactions at the
reporting date (see Note 22 to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein). Given the characteristics of the assets (properties) and the market conditions of those assets, the changes in the market
conditions during the reporting period and up to the date of this report are considered minimum, so any change in value is considered to be insignificant.
Impairment of long-lived assets
On assessing impairment, Management determines the recoverable value of each cash generating unit based on the expected future cash flows and determines an adequate interest rate to be able to calculate
the present value of these cash flows.
The uncertainty in the estimate is related to the assumptions regarding results of future operations and the determination of an appropriate discount rate. During 2025 and 2024, the Company performed impairment tests without
determining impairment losses (see Note 11 to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein). Management conducted a sensitivity analysis on its discount rate considering an increase of 1 to 3
percentage points; likewise, a decrease of up to 1.2 percentage points was considered for the growth rate, where the average recoverable value considering the combination of those scenarios was higher than the value of the long-term
assets for each cash generating unit, hence, under those scenarios no impairment loss would be determined.
Defined benefits obligation (DBO)
Management’s estimate of the DBO is based on a number of critical assumptions, such as inflation rates, mortality rates, discount rate, and a consideration for future salary increases. The variances in
these assumptions can impact the amount of the DBO and the corresponding annual expense for defined benefits (the analysis is provided in Note 20 to the accompanying Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere
herein).
Management conducted a sensitivity analysis for the main assumptions, the following table summarizes the effects of changes to these actuarial assumptions on the defined benefits obligations at December
31, 2025 and 2024:

B. Compensation
In accordance with the laws of Mexico, we do not report executive compensation on an individualized basis. The disclosure below includes all forms of compensation
given by us in exchange for services rendered by our corporate directors.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the total compensation paid to our directors and officers, for services in all capacities, was approximately $20.6 million. See
ITEM 7. "Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions." This compensation includes salaries, directors' fees and benefits in kind.
Of this total:
•
Our executive officers (including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other members of senior management) received aggregate compensation of approximately $19.4 million.
•
Our members, for their service on the Board of Directors, received emoluments of approximately $1.2 million.
Seniority bonuses, retirement plan obligations (“Pension Benefits”) and other employee compensation payable at the end of employment are based on actuarial
calculations using the projected unit credit method. Pension Benefits are based mainly on years of service, age and salary level upon retirement.
Seniority bonuses, Pension Benefits and other employee compensation payable upon termination include the amortization of past service costs over the average remaining working lifetime of
employees. Reserves for obligations at the end of the 2025, 2024 and 2023 fiscal years were $65,632, $74,682 and $77,390, respectively.
C. Board Practices
Our Bylaws provide that our Board of Directors shall consist of at least seven but not more than 21 directors elected at our annual ordinary shareholders’ meeting to
serve until their successors accept their election at the next annual ordinary shareholders’ meeting. The Board of Directors is responsible for the management of the Company. Mexican Securities Law requires that at least 25% of the
members of the Board be independent directors.
Audit and Corporate Practices Committee
The Board of Directors maintains an Audit and Corporate Practices Committeecomposed of independent

Code of Ethics
The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics, which applies to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and other members of our senior management.
The Code of Ethics may be viewed on the Company website at www.tmm.com.mx. An English version of this document is available upon written request sent to Grupo TMM, S.A.B., Convento de Acolman 58-B, Jardines de Santa Monica, 54050,
México, Attn: Human Resources.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company formally established an Ethics Committee, a body responsible for overseeing the implementation and compliance
with the Code of Ethics, promoting a culture of integrity within the organization, and evaluating reporting mechanisms and the management of potential ethical violations. The establishment of this committee was approved by the Board
of Directors and supported by the Audit Committee in order to strengthen corporate governance practices and align them with international best practices in business ethics.
Pursuant to the Mexican Securities Market Law (Ley del Mercado de Valores), the surveillance of the Company is entrusted to
different committees (i.e., Audit and Corporate Practices Committees), as previously described, which replace the role of the Statutory Auditor. At the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting
held on December 20, 2006, the Statutory Auditor, Salles Sainz-Grant Thornton, S.C (SSGT), and the alternate Statutory Auditor, were duly replaced by the Audit and Corporate Practices Committee of the Company. However, SSGT
continues to serve as the Statutory Auditor for all of our subsidiaries.
D. Employees
As of March 31, 2026, we had 644 employees, approximately 7.0% of whom were unionized, and as of December 31, 2025, we had 500 employees, approximately 10.0% of whom
were unionized.
As of December 31, 2024, we had 720 employees, approximately 8% of whom were unionized. The decrease in the number of our employees in 2025 was primarily due to the
deconsolidation of the warehousing business as a result of loss of control in accordance with IFRS 10.
In accordance with customary practice in Mexico, we negotiate union contracts annually with regard to wages and every two years with regard to other matters,
including benefits. We have not experienced a strike since 1987 and believe that relations with our employees are good.
E. Share Ownership
As of April 21, 2026, the Serrano family held 113,107,152 Shares directly, and the CPO Trustee maintained 15,047,127 Shares of our capital stock in the form of ADSs,
including 6,836,510 Shares that are beneficially owned by the Serrano family. Accordingly, as of such date, the Serrano Segovia family controlled the voting power of our capital stock. The voting power controlled by the Serrano
family varies from time to time, depending upon the number of Shares held by the Serrano family and by the CPO Trust and others. As of April 21, 2026, other than as set forth below in the section entitled “Major Shareholders” each
of our other directors, alternate directors or executive officers owns less than one percent of our Shares on an individual basis.
Shares were contributed to the CPO Trust established with a 30-year term by Nacional Financiera, S.N.C. (the “CPO Trustee”) on November 24, 1989. The CPO Trustee
authorized the issuance of non-redeemable ordinary participation certificates (certificados de participación ordinarios no amortizables) (“CPOs”) that correspond to our Shares. One CPO may
be issued for each Share contributed to the CPO Trust. CPOs constitutes separate negotiable instruments different and apart from the Shares, and afford to their holders only economic rights with respect to the Shares held in the CPO
Trust. Such voting rights are exercisable only by the CPO Trustee, which is required by the terms of the CPO Trust to vote such Shares in the same manner as holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares not held in the CPO Trust
and voted at the relevant meeting. Mexican and non-Mexican investors may hold CPOs without restrictions of any kind. The acquisition of Shares representing 5% or more of the capital stock of Grupo TMM by any person or group of
persons (other than the Serrano Segovia family and the CPO Trustee), in one or a series of simultaneous or successive transactions requires the prior approval of the Board of Directors. As of April 21, 2026, the CPO Trustee held
CPOs representing an aggregate of 15,047,127 Shares in the form of ADSs.
F. Disclosure of Action to Recover Erroneously Awarded Compensation
Not applicable.
ITEM 7.
MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
A. Major Shareholders
The following table indicates, as of April 21, 2026, unless otherwise indicated, the shareholders that beneficially own 5% or more of our outstanding Shares (the
“Major Shareholders”). The percentage of our outstanding Shares owned by each Major Shareholder shown below is based on the 174,553,127 Shares outstanding as of April 21, 2025. For purposes hereof, each Major Shareholder with shared
voting or investment authority with respect to certain securities is deemed to beneficially own all such securities.
Based upon information made known to the Company and reports of beneficial ownership filed with the SEC, the Serrano Family beneficially owns 113,107,152 Shares, including 19,461,214 Shares held by
VEX, a Mexican corporation in which José F. Serrano Segovia holds 100% of the voting stock, and 500 Shares beneficially owned by Promotora Servia, S.A. de C.V. (“Promotora”), a Mexican corporation controlled by José F.
Serrano Segovia, and which are owned directly by its subsidiary, Servicios Directivos Servia, S.A. de C.V. (“Servicios”), a Mexican corporation.
Change in Percentage Ownership
No major shareholder has disclosed any significant changes in their shareholding percentage during the three years ending December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, with the
exception of Jimena Serrano Cuevas, who held a 19.6% stake as of 2023.
Voting Rights and Control
As of April 21, 2026, 15,047,127 Shares were held in the form of ADSs, which have limited voting rights. The Shares held in the form of ADSs are held directly by the
CPO Trust. The voting rights for those Shares are exercisable only by the trustee of the CPO Trust, which is required by the terms of the trust agreement to vote such Shares at any shareholders’ meeting in the same manner as the
majority of the Shares that are not held in the CPO Trust are voted. Of the 159,506,000 Shares held outside of the CPO Trust as of April 21, 2026, the Serrano family beneficially owns 106,270,642, or 66.6% of such Shares. As a
result, the Serrano family could direct and control the policies of the Company and its subsidiaries, including mergers, sales of assets and similar transactions. See Item 9. “The Offer and Listing.” Except for the limited voting
rights applicable to their ADSs, none of the Major Shareholders have voting rights that differ from those applicable to other holders of Shares.
Other than the Serrano family, which may be deemed to control the Company, to our knowledge we are not directly or indirectly owned or controlled by any other
corporation, by any foreign government or by any other natural or legal person, severally or jointly. We are not aware of any arrangement which may at a later date result in a change of control of the Company.
B. Related Party Transactions
To date, the Company has no related parties as third-party partners.
C. Interests of Experts and Counsel
Not applicable.
ITEM 8.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information
On August 7, 2007, TMM filed a claim for arbitration against RPS for the amount of US$50,000 (approximately $0.9 million pesos) for various expenses incurred by TMM due to the delay
of the delivery of the tanker vessel Palenque.
On October 19, 2007, RPS filed a countersuit for US$3.0 million (approximately $56.6 million pesos), alleging that TMM failed to maintain the tanker vessel Palenque, and also filed
a claim for consequential damages for losing a contract while the vessel was being repaired. No significant events occurred in the proceedings during 2023, 2024 and 2025, and as of the date of the consolidated financial statements
included herein. TMM believes that its counterclaim is strong and that it has sufficient elements and arguments for its defense. Although it is impossible to predict the outcome of any legal proceeding, we believe this claim to be
without merit and intend to defend this proceeding vigorously.
Tax Assessments Issued Against the Company
On March 25, 2025, TMM was notified of a court ruling denying the amparo relief sought by TMM, which upheld the validity of the resolution assessing various tax
credits for alleged omissions in connection with income tax and VAT withholding obligations with respect to foreign residents, corresponding to fiscal year 2014. In April 2025, a Motion for Review was filed against the ruling issued
in the amparo proceeding, requesting the protection of the Federal Judiciary.
On April 7, 2025, TMM filed a Motion for Review ("ADR") against the ruling issued in direct amparo proceeding 763/2022, which was referred to the Supreme Court of
Justice of the Nation for review and registered under docket number ADR 2892/2025. On May 12, 2025, the Supreme Court issued an order dismissing the motion.
On June 17, 2025, TMM filed an indirect amparo action challenging the constitutionality of Articles 61, Section II, 91 second paragraph, and 104, first and third
paragraphs of the Amparo Law. Such constitutional challenge was brought on the basis of the first act of application of those provisions in the May 12 order, which was also challenged on its own merits. However, on June 26, 2025,
the Company was notified of the order dated June 19, 2025, through which the District Court resolved to dismiss the complaint.
On July 3, 2025, TMM filed an appeal (recurso de queja) against the ruling referred to in the preceding paragraph, issued by the Sixteenth District Judge in
Administrative Matters in Mexico City, by which the amparo claim filed by the Company was dismissed.
By judgment rendered in the ordinary session held on February 6, 2026, the Twentieth Collegiate Circuit Court in Administrative Matters of the First Circuit resolved
that the appeal filed was unfounded.
No legal remedy is available to revoke or modify the foregoing determination, and therefore the matter may be considered concluded. The contingency arising from this
matter amounts to the tax assessment determined, updated through the date of payment and increased by the corresponding accessories, taking into account that, as a general rule, surcharges are capped at five years.
Nullity Proceedings Against Various Tax Provisions
During 2017 and 2016, Grupo TMM filed Nullity Lawsuits (Juicios de Nulidad)
before the Federal Court of Administrative Justice (Tribunal Federal de Justicia Administrativa) against various resolutions issued by
the Mexican Tax Administration Service (Servicio de Administración Tributaria, or "SAT") regarding: (i) the disallowance of deductions
and alleged underpayment of Value Added Tax (fiscal year 2007); (ii) modifications to the Tax Consolidation Regime with respect to controlled subsidiaries (fiscal year 2005); (iii) deferred income tax arising from tax
consolidation (fiscal year 2010); and (iv) the termination of the Tax Consolidation Regime (fiscal year 2013).As of the date of this report, these
proceedings remain pending. Grupo TMM and its legal advisors are considering, as part of the legal remedies available against the authority's resolutions, the filing of a direct amparo proceeding (juicio de amparo directo), whose
arguments must be submitted for review and resolution to the Collegiate Circuit Court in Administrative Matters of the First Circuit (Tribunal Colegiado de Circuito en Materia Administrativa del Primer Circuito). Furthermore, if
the constitutional challenge regarding general legal provisions remains unresolved, the Company may file a petition for review of the direct amparo (recurso de revisión en amparo directo) against the judgment issued by such court,
which petition must be submitted to the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice (Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación) for review and resolution on the merits. Management, together with its legal advisors, continues to pursue its legal
defense strategy and believes that there are legal grounds to obtain a resolution favorable to the Group's interests.
The Company is involved in other legal and administrative proceedings of minor significance arising from its normal course of operations. Although the outcome of
these legal proceedings cannot be assured, it is the opinion of the Company's Management that the cases are being litigated and that no individual or combined pending judgment should have an adverse effect that would compromise its
financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
A.8 Dividends
At shareholders’ meetings, shareholders have the ability, at their discretion, to approve dividends from time to time. No dividend has been declared since 1997.
B. Significant Changes
See Item 4. “Information on the Company - Business Overview - Recent Developments.”
ITEM 9.
THE OFFER AND LISTING
A.Offer and Listing Details
Our Shares are currently listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, S.A. de C.V.) and trade under the symbol TMM A. Our CPOs do not trade independently of the
Shares on the Bolsa. Our ADSs are currently listed in the United States on the Over-the-Counter market and trade under the symbol GTMAY.
B.Plan of Distribution
Not applicable.
C.Markets
Our Series A Shares started trading on the Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, S.A. de C.V. (the “Mexican Stock Exchange” or the
“Bolsa”) on September 24, 1980 and our Series L Shares began trading on August 9, 1991. In June 1992, L Share ADSs, each representing one Series L Share, were issued by Citibank, N.A. as depositary in exchange for Rule 144A ADSs as
part of an initial public offering, and commenced trading on the NYSE. On September 13, 2002, we completed a reclassification of our Series L Shares of stock as Series A Shares. The reclassification combined our two classes of stock
into a single class by converting each share of our Series L Shares into one share of our Series A Shares. The reclassification also eliminated the variable portion of our capital stock and we became a fixed capital corporation (sociedad anónima). Following the reclassification, we had 56,963,137 Series A Shares outstanding. As a result of the elimination of the variable portion of our capital stock, our registered name
changed from Grupo TMM, S.A. de C.V. to Grupo TMM, S.A.
As a result of the promulgation of the new securities law in Mexico in June of 2006, public companies were transformed by operation of law into Sociedades Anónimas Bursátiles (Public Issuing Corporation) and were required to amend their bylaws to conform them to the provisions of the new law. On December 20, 2006, the Company added the
term “Bursátil” to its registered name to comply with the requirements under Mexico’s new securities law or Ley del Mercado de Valores, resulting in
Grupo TMM, Sociedad Anónima Bursátil, or Grupo TMM, S.A.B. In addition, the Series A Shares of the Company were renamed and are now referred to as nominative common shares, without par value
(“Shares”). The rights afforded by these new Shares are identical to the rights afforded by the former Series A Shares.
Our Shares continue to trade in Mexico on the Mexican Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol TMMA. In the United States, our ADSs, each representing five CPOs, trade
on the OTC market under the ticker symbol GTMAY following their delisting from the NYSE on June 12, 2012. Our ADSs continue to be registered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are issued and exchanged in New York by
The Bank of New York Mellon, which replaced Citibank, N.A. as depositary on December 18, 2009. As of April 21, 2026, of the 174,553,127 outstanding Shares, 15,047,127 were held in the form of ADSs.
The CPOs do not trade independently of the Shares on the Bolsa. In the event that CPOs are sold to a Mexican national, the Shares underlying such CPOs will be
delivered directly to the purchaser through S.D. Indeval, S.A. de C.V. (“Indeval”). Indeval is a privately owned central securities depositary that acts as a clearing house, depositary,
custodian, settlement, and transfer agent and registration institution for Mexican Stock Exchange transactions, eliminating the need for physical transfer of securities. Because non-Mexican nationals cannot acquire direct interests
in the Shares, in the event that the purchaser of such Shares is not a Mexican national, such Shares must be delivered in the form of CPOs through Indeval.
Limitations Affecting ADS Holders and CPO Holders
Each Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote at any of our shareholders’ meetings. Holders of CPOs are not entitled to vote the Shares underlying such CPOs.
Such voting rights are exercisable only by the CPO Trustee, which is required to vote all such Shares in the same manner as the holders of a majority of the Shares that are not held in the CPO Trust and that are voted at the
relevant meeting.
Whenever a shareholders’ meeting approves a change of corporate purpose, change of domicile or restructuring from one type of corporate form to another, any
shareholder who has voted against such change or restructuring has the right to withdraw as a shareholder and receive an amount equal to the book value of its shares (in accordance with our latest balance sheet approved by the
annual ordinary general shareholders’ meeting), provided such shareholder exercises its right to withdraw during the 15-day period following the meeting at which such change or restructuring was approved. Because the CPO Trustee is
required to vote the Shares held in the CPO Trust in the same manner as the holders of a majority of the Shares that are not held in the CPO Trust and that are voted at the relevant meeting, appraisal rights will not be available to
holders of CPOs.
Share Repurchase Program
On December 14, 2007, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had given its approval to constitute a reserve fund to repurchase Shares during their meeting
held in November of that year. The Share repurchase program was also approved by the Company’s shareholders at a shareholders’ meeting. The program was approved for an amount of up to US$10 million (approximately $205.1 million).
The Company has repurchased 1,577,700 Shares under the program since its approval in 2007.
The following is a summary of the provisions of the Bylaws (Estatutos Sociales) of Grupo TMM and is qualified in its
entirety by the actual provisions within the Bylaws themselves and applicable provisions of the General Law of Mercantile Companies (Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles) and the Mexican
Securities Law (Ley del Mercado de Valores). For a description of the provisions of our Bylaws relating to our Board of Directors, General Director, Special Committees and Statutory Auditors,
as well as Audit and Corporate Practices Committee, see Item 6. “Directors, Senior Management and Employees.”
Organization and Register
We were incorporated in the United Mexican States as a sociedad anónima, as evidenced by public deed number 26,225 dated

On June 4, 2008, certain articles of the Company’s Bylaws were amended at the General Shareholders’ Meeting. The modification to Article 14 added further
restrictions to the acquisition or the transfer of the Company’s shares providing more specific detail with respect to the requirements and authorizations required in order to acquire five percent or more of the Company’s shares.
Article 25 was modified in order to comply with the Mexican Exchange Law (Ley del Mercado de Valores). Finally, Article 27 was modified to clarify which shareholders are required to sign the Shareholders’ Meeting Attendance Sheet.

Federal District.

The General Director, or Chief Executive Officer, shall be in charge of the day-to-day management of the Company, the direction and execution of the businesses of
the Company and of its subsidiaries, subject to the strategies, policies and guidelines approved by the Board of Directors or, as the case may be, by committees created pursuant to the corporate Bylaws.
In order to fulfill his duties, the General Director shall have the powers granted to him by the Board of Directors at the time of his appointment or at any other
time after his appointment. For the exercise of his duties and activities and the fulfillment of his obligations, the General Director shall be assisted by all the relevant managers and other employees of the Company and of the
corporations controlled by the Company.
Audit and Corporate Practices Committee
The Board of Directors of the Company has established an Audit and Corporate Practices Committee to carry out the audit and corporate practices functions that shall
be integrated by at least three independent directors appointed by the Board of Directors, which members are proposed by the Chairman. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Chairman of the Audit and Corporate Practices Committee must
be appointed and/or removed from his position exclusively by the General Shareholders’ Meeting and he must always be an independent director. The Chairman of the Audit and Corporate Practices Committee in no event whatsoever may
preside over the Board of Directors.
The oversight of the management, direction and execution of the business of the Company and of its subsidiaries shall be entrusted to the Board of Directors through
the aforementioned Audit and Corporate Practices Committee, as well as through the individuals or corporations that carry out the external audit of the Company for each fiscal year.
Capital Stock
To conform to the provisions of the new Mexican Securities Law, our Series A Shares of capital stock were converted into nominative common shares without par value
(“Shares”), thereby deleting any series. The rights of the Series A Shares and the Shares are identical.
At the General Shareholders’ Meeting held on March 16, 2023, the Company’s shareholders agreed to carry out a capital increase for an amount of
$151,978, through the issuance of up to 72,370,286 common, no-par value shares representing the share capital of Groupo TMM. Said capital increase was authorized by the CNBV through official letter number 153/5296/2023 dated June
27, 2023, and subscribed in its entirety by the shareholders in the month of October 2023.
As of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, share capital is made up of 174,553,127 shares outstanding, common shares, nominal shares, no-par value shares, and shares
with voting rights, which may be owned by persons or investors of Mexican nationality, Mexican company or Mexican companies whose bylaws contain the exclusion clause for foreigners. The shares can be acquired by foreigners under the
figure of American Depositary Shares (‘ADS’).
Registration and Transfer
All Shares are evidenced by share certificates in registered form. Mexican law requires that all shares be represented by a certificate, although a single
certificate may represent multiple shares of stock. Certificates may be issued in the name of the registered holder. All of our share certificates are issued in the name of the registered holder. Mexican law also requires that all
transfers, encumbrances and liens on nominative shares must be recorded in the share registry book and are only enforceable against us and third parties after such registration occurs. S.D.
Indeval, S.A. de C.V. (“Indeval”) is the registrar and transfer agent for the Shares held in book-entry form. A global certificate representing all Shares in book entry form is deposited at Indeval. Shareholders holding
their share certificates directly are required to be recorded as such by the secretary of the Company in our share registry book.
Shareholders’ Meetings
Shareholders are entitled to vote on all matters at ordinary or special shareholders’ meetings. The Board of Directors will convene an Annual Shareholders’ Meeting
at least once a year on the date determined by the Board of Directors within the first four months following the end of the fiscal year. In addition to dealing with the matters included on the agenda, the shareholders’ meeting
should discuss, approve or modify the report of the Board of Directors, of the General Director and of the committee(s) that carry out the duties of corporate and audit practices, related to (i) the day-to-day conduct of business,
(ii) the general balance sheet, (iii) the statement of income and losses, (iv) the statement of changes in financial position, and (v) the statement of the change in shareholders’ equity for such fiscal year. At such meeting
directors shall also be appointed as per our Bylaws for the next fiscal year and their compensation shall be determined.
All notices of shareholders’ meetings shall be published once in the official newspaper of the domicile of the Company and in one of the newspapers of major
circulation in such domicile, at least 15 days prior to the date scheduled for the meeting to be held. In order for the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meetings to be considered legally convened as a result of the first call, at least half
of the capital stock in circulation at that time must be represented thereat, and the resolutions of such meeting shall be valid when passed by a majority of the votes present.
Ordinary Shareholders’ Meetings require the attendance of shareholders holding at least half the shares that have the right to attend such meetings, and the
affirmative vote of a majority of the holders present at any such meeting, in a first call, and in a second call, the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of shares that have the right to attend any such meeting
irrespective of the number of shares presents thereat, in order to make decisions.
Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meetings require the attendance of shareholders holding at least 75% of the shares that have the right to attend and vote at any such
meetings, and the affirmative vote of at least half the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote at the first call, and at the second or subsequent call, the attendance and affirmative vote of at least half the issued and
outstanding shares entitled to attend and vote at any such meeting in order to make decisions.
Shareholders may be present or represented by a simple proxy at shareholders’ meetings. Directors and statutory auditors of the Company may not represent any
shareholder at any shareholders’ meeting.
In order to attend any meeting, shareholders must obtain an admission card prior to the meeting from Indeval or another financial institution in the United Mexican
States or abroad. Such financial institution must notify the Company (telegraphic or facsimile means are authorized) of the name of the depositor, the number of shares deposited and the date on which the deposit was made. Admission
cards to shareholders’ meetings may be regularly obtained through authorized brokers in the United Mexican States which, together with the list issued by Indeval, will be sufficient for any shareholder to obtain the corresponding
admission card.
Mexican law and our corporate charter prohibit ownership of Shares by foreign investors. Any acquisition of Shares in violation of this charter provision would be
null and void.
Any foreigner who acquires any interest or participation in our capital stock through CPOs will be considered a Mexican citizen insofar as Mexican law and we are
concerned (except with respect to the right to own Shares) and will be deemed to understand and agree that such foreigner may not invoke the protection of his or her government in connection with his interest or participation in the
Company, under penalty of forfeiture of such interest or participation in favor of the United Mexican States.
We contributed Shares of our capital stock to the Master Neutral Investment Trust (Fideicomiso Maestro de Inversion Neutra) (the
“CPO Trust”) established with a 30-year term by Nacional Financiera, S.N.C. (the “CPO Trustee”) on November 24, 1989. The CPO Trustee authorized the issuance of non-redeemable ordinary participation certificates (certificados departicipación ordinarios no amortizables) (“CPOs”) that correspond to our Shares. One CPO may be issued for each of our Shares
contributed to the CPO Trust. CPOs constitute separate negotiable instruments different and apart from our Shares, and afford to their holders only economic rights attaching to Shares. Consequently, holders of CPOs are not entitled
to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares held in the CPO Trust. Such voting rights are exercisable only by the CPO Trustee, which is required by the terms of the CPO Trust to vote such Shares in the same manner as
holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares not held in the CPO Trust and voted at the relevant meeting.
Prior to its termination date, the CPO Trustee will sell Shares held by the CPO Trust, and deliver the proceeds thereof to CPO holders in proportion to their
respective CPO holdings. Alternatively, we may establish a new trust to enable continued foreign equity participation in the Company. Although, we will endeavor to establish a new trust to substitute the CPO Trust, no assurance can
be made that we will in fact establish or be able to establish such new trust.
Mexican and non-Mexican investors may hold CPOs without restrictions of any kind.
We note that because CPOs are negotiable instruments separate and apart from Shares of the Company, holders of CPOs do not qualify as shareholders, and may not
exercise the minority rights afforded by the General Law of Mercantile Companies and Mexican Securities Law of the United Mexican States, except for the right to exercise a derivative action for civil liability against the Directors
and relevant officers of the Company or its subsidiaries, as further detailed in section entitled “Minority Rights” below.
Acquisition of Share Capital
On December 20, 2006, the Company amended Article 14 of its Bylaws to provide that the consent of the Board of Directors would be required for acquisitions that
would result in any person or group of persons acquiring five percent or more of our Shares whether in a single transaction or in several simultaneous or successive transactions, notwithstanding the number of shares that such person
may own at such time. If the approved process is not complied with, the acquirer will not be entitled to vote the acquired Shares. The approved process will apply only to direct acquisitions of Shares and not to CPOs and ADSs. In
addition, the acquisition of Shares by any Mexican national may also be subject to the applicable provisions of Mexican antitrust laws. The Board is required to resolve with respect to any request for authorization to acquire five
percent or more of our Shares within a period of three months following the request and to take into account certain criteria as set forth in our Bylaws that relates to the consequences affecting the Company by such acquisition.
Notwithstanding this restriction, in the event of a public offering for the acquisition of 100% of our Shares, no authorization by the Board of Directors in connection with such public offering is necessary and the Board of
Directors is required by law to render an opinion related to the terms and conditions of such public offering which opinion is to be rendered pursuant to applicable regulations. Our Bylaws provide that any amendment to the
aforementioned provision may only be approved at a General Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting, at which shares representing five percent or more of the capital stock of the Company have not voted against.
On June 4, 2008, Article 14 of the Company’s Bylaws was further modified at the General Shareholder’s Meeting. These modifications added further restrictions to the
acquisition or the transfer of the Company’s shares providing more specific detail with respect to the requirements and authorizations required in order to acquire five percent or more of the Company’s shares.
Applicable to Shareholders, CPOs holders and the CPO Trustee
The shareholder, or group of shareholders representing at least five percent or more of the capital stock, may exercise a derivative action for civil liability
against the directors and relevant officers of the Company, provided the complaint includes the total amount of the liabilities in favor of the Company, its subsidiaries or entities in which the Company owns 20% or more of the
capital stock thereof, and not only the personal interest of the petitioners. The assets obtained as a result of the claim shall be for the benefit of the Company, its subsidiaries, or such entities, as applicable.
Pursuant to the Mexican Securities Law, CPOs or ADSs holders, as well as the CPO Trustee, may also exercise the aforementioned civil liability action.
2.
Applicable to Shareholders
The shareholder or group of shareholders representing at least 20% or more of the capital stock may oppose in court the resolutions of the General Shareholders’
Meetings, provided (i) the complaint is filed within the 15 days following the adjournment of the Shareholders’ Meeting, (ii) the plaintiffs have not attended the Shareholders’ Meeting or they have cast their vote against the
resolution, and (iii) the complaint states the clause of the Company’s Bylaws or of the legal norm violated, as well as a description of the violation. Shareholders exercising such opposition right must deposit their Shares before a
Notary Public or an authorized financial institution and their complaint shall be accompanied by evidence of such deposit. Deposited shares may not be withdrawn until a final judgment is rendered.
The shareholder or group of shareholders representing at least 10% of the capital stock shall be entitled to appoint, at the Annual General Ordinary Shareholders’
Meeting held in order to elect directors, a Regular Member and, as the case may be, his respective alternate. The appointment of any director carried out by a minority may only be reversed when all other directors are also removed,
unless the removal is attributable to a justified reason according to the applicable law.
Holders of 10% or more of the capital stock of the Company may require the Chairman of the Board of Directors or of the Audit and Corporate Practices Committee to
call a General Shareholders’ Meeting.
The shareholder or group of shareholders representing, at least, 10% of the shares represented at a Shareholders’ Meeting may request that the voting on any matter
of which they are not sufficiently informed be postponed and in said case the voting on said matter shall be postponed for three calendar days, without the need for a new call. This right may be exercised only once for the same
matter.
In addition, shareholders are entitled to (i) review all information and documents pertaining to the matters for which a Shareholders’ Meeting has been called at the
offices of the Company and within at least 15 calendar days of the scheduled date of the meeting; (ii) request that certain relevant issues be dealt with at the meeting that were not originally on the agenda for the meeting, if
called for under sundry or general matters in the relevant call for the meeting; (iii) be represented at the meeting by persons designated by them pursuant to standard proxy forms that are to be made available by the Company with at
least 15 calendar days prior to the date scheduled for the meeting which will contain the name of the Company, the matters to be discussed at the meeting and spaces for instructions as to the manner of the vote; and (iv) execute
agreements between or among different shareholders provided that any such shareholders’ agreement(s) must be disclosed to the Company within five business days following the date of their execution for disclosure thereof to the
public through the relevant stock exchanges and disclosure of their existence in the annual reports of the Company, and provided further that such agreements will not affect any voting at any Shareholders’ Meeting of the Company,
may not be enforced against the Company and will only be effective among the executing shareholders upon disclosure to the public as aforesaid.
In addition to voting for directors at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, shareholders are asked to vote upon the financial statements of the Company and the annual
reports of the Board of Directors, the Audit and Corporate Practices Committee, and the General Director. If the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast approve management’s performance, all shareholders are deemed to
have released the directors and officers from claims or liability to us or our shareholders arising out of actions taken or any failure to take actions by any of them on our behalf during the prior fiscal year, with certain
exceptions. Officers and directors may not be released from any claims or liability for criminal acts, fraud, self-dealing or gross negligence.
Members of the Board of Directors and the officers of the Company shall not incur, individually or jointly, any responsibility for the damages and/or losses they may
cause to the Company or its subsidiaries or of entities in which the Company owns 20% or more of the capital stock thereof, derived from acts executed by, or decisions made, by any of them, to the extent that acting in good faith,
any of the following exclusions of responsibility applies:
(i)
They fulfill the requirements that the Bylaws and the applicable laws may stipulate for the approval of matters to be dealt with by the Board of Directors or, as the case may be, by committees of
which they are members.
(ii)
They make decisions or vote at the meetings of the Board of Directors or, as the case may be, committees to which they belong, based on the information provided by the relevant managers, the
corporation providing the external audit services or the independent experts, whose capacity and credibility do not offer a cause for reasonable doubt.
(iii)
They have selected the most suitable alternative, to the best of their knowledge and belief, or negative property damages had not been foreseeable, in both cases, based on the information available
at the time of the decision.
(iv)
They fulfill the resolutions of the Shareholders’ Meeting, provided these do not violate the law.
We shall indemnify and hold the directors, the General Director and all other relevant managers of the Company or of the mercantile corporations controlled by the
Company harmless from all damages and/or losses that their performance may cause to the Company and the corporations controlled by the Company or in which it has a significant influence, except in the event of deceitful acts or acts
in bad faith, unlawful acts in accordance with the applicable legislation or whose indemnity, pursuant to said legislation may not be agreed or granted by the Company. For said purposes, we may obtain liability insurance or any
similar insurance and grant any bonds and bails that may be necessary or convenient. All legal costs related to the respective defense shall be payable by us against general expenses, which shall only be refunded to the Company by
the director in question, the General Director or the relevant manager in question, when required pursuant to a firm court order releasing the Company from its indemnity obligations.
Liquidation Rights
Any liquidation of the Company shall be carried out in the manner provided under the valid General Law of Mercantile Companies. The shareholders’ meeting, in the act
of agreeing to the dissolution, should establish the rules that, in addition to the legal provisions and the provisions provided herein, should dictate the actions of the liquidators. Holders of 75% of the votes entitled to be cast
are required to approve a liquidation of the Company.
Dividends
Dividends are declared by the shareholders. All holders of common stock (represented by Shares, CPOs or ADSs) will share equally on a per share basis in any dividend
declared by our shareholders.
Certain Voting Rights
Our only class of outstanding capital stock consists of Shares. Shares, when properly issued, are fully voting shares of capital stock without par value.
In case of a capital increase, except in the case of treasury shares (in which case no preemptive rights applies), the holders of Shares have the preemptive right to
subscribe for the new shares issued as a result of a capital increase, in proportion to the number of Shares owned by each of them.
C.Material Contracts
See Item 4. “Information on the Company - History and Development of the Company” and Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects - Liquidity and Capital
Resources.”
D.Exchange Controls
There are currently no exchange controls in Mexico; however, Mexico has imposed foreign exchange controls in the past. Pursuant to the provisions of the USMCA, if
Mexico experiences serious balance of payment difficulties or the threat thereof in the future, Mexico would have the right to impose foreign exchange controls on investments made in Mexico, including those made by U.S. and Canadian
investors.
E.Taxation
United States Federal Income and Mexican Federal Taxation
The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax and certain Mexican federal tax consequences related to the acquisition, ownership, and
disposition of our ADSs by certain holders.
The Convention for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion and a Protocol thereto between the United States and Mexico became effective
on January 1, 1994 and has been amended by additional protocols (collectively, the “Tax Treaty”). The United States and Mexico have also entered into an agreement concerning the exchange of information with respect to tax matters.
This summary is not intended as tax advice to any particular holder of ADSs, which can be rendered only in light of that holder’s particular circumstances.
Accordingly, each holder of ADSs is urged to consult such holder’s tax advisor with respect to the specific tax consequences to such holder of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our ADSs, including the availability and
applicability of any tax treaty to such holder.
The summary with respect to certain United States federal income tax consequences is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), the Treasury
Regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as of the date of this Annual Report and as applicable in the current taxable year, and all of which are subject to change, possibly
with retroactive effect, or to different interpretations. The summary with respect to certain Mexican federal taxes is based on the Mexican federal tax laws, the Tax Treaty, regulations issued thereunder, rulings and general rules
issued by the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público), official pronouncements and judicial decisions, all as of the date of this Annual Report, and
all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, or to different interpretations.
General
For purposes of this summary, a “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of ADSs, who is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) a citizen or individual resident of
the United States, (ii) a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state therein or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate, the income of which is
subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of source, or (iv) a trust, if (A) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States
persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (B) the trust has a valid election in place to be treated as a United States trust. A “non-U.S. holder” is any holder other than a U.S. holder (and that
is not a partnership or other entity that is a flow-through entity for U.S. tax purposes). The tax treatment of persons who hold their ADSs through a partnership (including an entity treated as a partnership or other flow-through
entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in a partnership holding ADSs should consult their tax advisors.
For purposes of this summary, a “non-resident U.S. holder” is a U.S. holder that is a non-resident of Mexico for Mexican federal tax purposes and that does not have
a permanent establishment in Mexico. In general, for Mexican federal tax purposes, an individual is a resident of Mexico if he has established his home in Mexico, unless he has a home both in Mexico and abroad; in such case, an
individual will be considered to be a resident of Mexico if the individual’s “center of vital interests” is in Mexico. For these purposes, the center of vital interests will be considered to be located in Mexico, among other cases,
if either (i) more than 50% of the individual’s total income in a calendar year is derived from sources in Mexico, or (ii) the main center of the individual’s professional activities is located in Mexico. Mexican nationals who are
state officials or state workers are deemed to be residents of Mexico, even though their individual center of vital interests is located abroad. A Mexican national is presumed to be a resident of Mexico unless such person can
demonstrate otherwise. A legal entity is a resident of Mexico if it maintains the principal administration of its business or the effective location of its management in Mexico. If a legal entity or an individual is deemed to have a
permanent establishment in Mexico for Mexican federal income tax purposes, all income attributable to such permanent establishment will be subject to Mexican federal income tax, in accordance with applicable laws.
If an individual or legal entity ceases to be a resident of Mexico for Mexican federal tax purposes, such individual or legal entity must make certain filings with
the Mexican tax authorities generally within a 15-day period before its change of residency.
A non-resident of Mexico is an individual or legal entity that does not satisfy the requirements to be considered a resident of Mexico for Mexican federal tax
purposes.
Certain Mexican Federal Tax Consequences
This summary of certain Mexican federal tax consequences relates only to non-resident U.S. holders of our ADSs. This summary does not address all of the Mexican tax
consequences that may be applicable to specific holders of the Shares (including a holder that controls the Company, an investor that holds 10% or more of the Shares or holders that constitute a group of persons for purposes of
Mexican law).
Dividends - Dividends distributed from net taxable profits generated after or during 2014, either in cash or in any other
form, paid with respect to the Shares underlying the CPOs represented by our ADSs generally will be subject to a 10% Mexican withholding tax. Our ADSs are not subject to Mexican withholding tax if such dividends were distributed
from the net taxable profits generated before 2014. However, a U.S. Holder that is eligible to claim the benefits of the Tax Treaty may be exempt from or subject to a lower withholding tax rate on dividends paid with respect to the
shares underlying the CPOs, including those CPOs represented by ADSs.
Capital Gains - Capital gains arising from the sale or other disposition of our ADSs carried out through a stock exchange
recognized under applicable Mexican tax law, generally will be subject to a 10% Mexican income tax to be withheld by the financial intermediary, except in cases when the transferor asserts its residency in a country with which
Mexico has entered into a tax treaty for the avoidance of double taxation, in which case the non-resident holder will not be subject to Mexican tax.
In compliance with certain requirements, gains on the sale or other disposition of ADSs made in circumstances different from those set forth in the prior paragraph
generally would be subject to Mexican tax, at the general rate of 25% of the gross income, regardless of the nationality or residence of the transferor. However, under the Tax Treaty, a holder that is eligible to claim the benefits
of the Tax Treaty will be exempt from Mexican tax on gains realized on a sale or other disposition of our ADSs in a transaction that is not carried out through the Mexican Stock Exchange or other approved securities markets, so long
as the holder did not own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of our outstanding capital stock (including shares represented by our ADSs) within the 12-month period preceding such sale or other disposition.
Deposits and withdrawals of ADSs will not give rise to any Mexican tax or transfer duties.
In general, commissions paid in brokerage transactions for the sale of our ADSs on the Mexican Stock Exchange are subject to a value-added tax of 16%.
Other Mexican Taxes - There are no Mexican inheritance, succession taxes or value-added taxes applicable to the ownership,
transfer or disposition of our ADSs. Gratuitous transfers of our ADSs may, in some circumstances, subject the recipient to Mexican federal income tax. There are no Mexican stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes or duties
payable by non-resident U.S. holders with respect to our ADSs.
Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences
U.S. Holders
The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of ADSs. This
discussion does not purport to be tax or legal advice and may not be applicable depending upon a U.S. holder’s particular situation.
Each U.S. holder should consult such U.S. holder’s own tax advisor with respect to the current and, possibly future, U.S. federal, state, local
and foreign tax consequences to such U.S. holder of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of ADSs.
This summary is directed solely at U.S. holders that hold their ADSs as capital assets and whose functional currency is the Dollar. This summary does not discuss all
of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to U.S. holders, particularly those that may be subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, including, but not limited to, partnerships, banks,
financial institutions, thrifts, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, insurance companies, dealers in securities or currencies, U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, tax-exempt
investors, expatriates, former long-term U.S. residents, U.S. holders that reside outside the United States, persons who received shares in return for services rendered or in connection with their employment, securities traders who
elect to account for their investments in ADSs on a mark-to-market basis, persons that own (or are deemed to own for U.S. tax purposes) 10% or more of the voting stock or value of the Company, U.S. Holders that must accrue income
pursuant to Section 451(b) of the Code, or persons that hold their ADSs as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion or other integrated transaction. This summary does not discuss any United States federal estate, gift or alternative
minimum tax consequences or the tax laws of any state, local or foreign government that may be applicable.
For United States federal income tax purposes, a holder of an ADS generally will be treated as the beneficial owner of the CPOs represented by such ADS and such CPOs
should represent a beneficial interest in the underlying Shares represented by such CPOs.
Distributions - Distributions with respect to our ADSs (without reduction for Mexican withholding tax) that are paid out of
our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes) will be includible in the gross income of a U.S. holder as dividend income when the distributions are received by CPO
trustee, and, in general, will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction otherwise allowable to U.S. holders that are corporations. To the extent that a distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and
profits, it will be treated first as a nontaxable return of the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its ADSs to the extent of such tax basis, and then as gain from the sale or exchange of a capital asset.
A U.S. holder may be entitled, subject to a number of complex limitations and conditions (including a minimum holding period requirement), to claim a U.S. foreign
tax credit in respect of any Mexican income taxes withheld on dividends received in respect of the ADSs. Subject to certain limitations, a U.S. holder who does not elect to claim a credit for any foreign income taxes paid during the
taxable year may instead claim a deduction in respect of such income taxes provided the U.S. Holder elects to deduct (rather than credit) all foreign income taxes for that year. Dividends received in respect of ADSs generally will
be treated as foreign-source income, and generally will be treated as passive category income for most U.S. Holders. The rules relating to computing foreign tax credits or deducting foreign taxes are extremely complex, and U.S.
holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of foreign tax credits under their particular circumstances.
The amount of any dividend paid in Pesos will be includible in a U.S. Holder’s gross income in a U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the exchange rate in
effect on the day the pesos are actually or constructively received by the CPO trustee, regardless of whether the Pesos are converted into Dollars at that time. A U.S. holder will have a basis in the Pesos received equal to their
Dollar value on the date of receipt. If the distribution is converted into Dollars on the date of receipt, U.S. holders should not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. Any gains
or losses resulting from the conversion of Pesos into Dollars after the date on which the distribution is received generally will be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss.
Subject to certain exceptions for short-term and hedged positions, dividends received with respect to the ADSs by an individual U.S. holder generally will be subject
to United States federal income tax at preferential rates applicable to long-term capital gain if the dividends are “qualified dividends.” Qualified dividends with respect to an individual U.S. holder generally include dividends
that are received from a “qualified foreign corporation”, provided the U.S. holder meets certain holding period requirements with respect to its ownership of such qualified foreign corporation. A qualified foreign corporation
generally includes a foreign corporation if (A) (i) its shares, including its ADSs, are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, or (ii) it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax
treaty with the United States that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has approved for purposes of the qualified dividend rule, and (B) it was not a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) in the taxable year in which the
dividend was paid or in the preceding taxable year. The U.S. Treasury has approved the Tax Treaty for the purposes of the qualified dividend rules, and we believe that we should be eligible for the benefits of the Tax Treaty.
Further, as discussed below, we believe that we are not a PFIC. Therefore, we believe that dividends paid to an individual U.S. holder with respect to the ADSs may be subject to U.S. federal income tax at preferential rates
applicable to long-term capital gain, provided such U.S. holder otherwise meets the requirements for the application of such rate. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the availability of the preferential
dividend tax rates in light of their particular circumstances.
Dispositions - In general, upon the sale or other disposition of ADSs, a U.S. holder will recognize gain or loss equal to
the difference between the amount realized on the sale or disposition (in Dollars, generally determined at the spot rate on the date of disposition if the amount realized is denominated in a foreign currency) and the U.S. holder’s
adjusted tax basis in the ADSs (in Dollars). The gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the ADSs have been held for more than one year on the date of the sale or other disposition. Certain non-corporate
U.S. Holders (including individuals) may be eligible for preferential rates of U.S. federal income tax in respect of long-term capital gains. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Deposits and withdrawals of
CPOs by a U.S. holder in exchange for ADSs generally will not result in the realization of gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Unless treated otherwise pursuant to an applicable tax treaty, gain or loss recognized by
a U.S. holder on a sale or other disposition of ADSs generally will be treated as gain or loss from sources within the United States for United States foreign tax credit purposes.
In addition, under current law, certain U.S. Investors that are individuals, estates or trusts are required to pay an additional 3.8% tax on various types of
investment income. Such U.S. Investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability and the effect of this tax with respect to an investment in our ADSs.
PFIC - A non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC for any taxable year in which, after applying relevant look-through rules with
respect to the income and assets of subsidiaries:
•
75% or more of its gross income consists of passive income; or
•
50% or more of the average quarterly value of its gross assets consists of assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income.
“Passive income” for this purpose includes, for example, dividends, interest, royalties, rents and gains from commodities and securities transactions. Passive income
does not include rents and royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business. If the stock of a non-U.S. corporation is publicly traded for the taxable year, the asset test is applied using the fair market value of
the assets for purposes of measuring such corporation’s assets. If we own at least 25% (by value) of the stock of another corporation, we will be treated, for purposes of the PFIC tests, as owning our proportionate share of the
other corporation’s assets and receiving our proportionate share of the other corporation’s income for purposes of the PFIC income and asset tests.
We believe that we were not a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes. However, because PFIC status depends upon the annual composition of our income and
assets and the market value of our assets (including certain equity investments of less than 25%) and because the characterization of certain income and assets is uncertain under the PFIC rules, there can be no assurance that we
will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. If we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder held ADSs, certain adverse consequences could apply to such U.S. holder.
In general, if we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, gain recognized by a U.S. holder on the sale or other disposition of ADSs would be allocated ratably
over the U.S. holder’s holding period for such ADSs. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and to any year before we became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each
other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the tax liability attributable to such amounts. Further, generally,
to the extent any distribution during a taxable year to a U.S. holder in respect of ADSs exceeds 125% of the average of the annual distributions in respect of such ADSs received by such U.S. holder during the preceding three taxable
years; such “excess distribution” would be subject to taxation as described in the preceding sentence. Certain elections may be available to mitigate the adverse consequences resulting from PFIC status.
If we were regarded as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder would be required to file an annual information return on IRS Form 8621 relating to the holder’s ownership of the shares
or ADSs. A failure to file this return will suspend the statute of limitations with respect to any tax return, event, or period to which such report relates (potentially including with respect to items that do not relate to a U.S.
Holder’s investment in the ADSs). This requirement would be in addition to other reporting requirements applicable to ownership in a PFIC.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding - Dividends on, and proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, ADSs paid
to a U.S. holder generally may be subject to the information reporting and backup withholding rules under the Code unless such U.S. holder (i) is a corporation or comes within certain exempt categories, and demonstrates this fact
when so required, or (ii) provides a correct taxpayer identification number, certifies that it is not subject to backup withholding and otherwise complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules - such as by
providing an IRS Form W-9. Any amount withheld under these rules generally will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. holder’s United States federal income tax liability, provided certain information is timely provided to the IRS.
Certain U.S. Holders (including individual U.S. Holders) that hold certain specified foreign financial assets, including stock in a foreign corporation, with values
in excess of certain thresholds are required to file Form 8938 with their United States Federal Income Tax return. Form 8938 requires disclosure of information concerning such foreign assets, including the value of the assets.
Failure to file the form when required results in penalties. An exemption from reporting applies to foreign assets held through a US financial institution, generally including a non-U.S. branch or subsidiary of a U.S. institution
and a U.S. branch of a non-US institution.
Non-U.S. Holders
A non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to United States federal income or withholding tax on dividends received with respect to ADSs, unless such income is
effectively connected with the conduct by such non-U.S. holder of a United States trade or business (or, in the case of a non-U.S. holder that qualifies for the benefits of an income tax treaty with the United States, if such income
is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed place of business of such non-U.S. holder in the United States).
A non-U.S. holder of ADSs will not be subject to United States federal income or withholding tax on gain realized on the sale or other disposition of ADSs, unless
(1) such gain is effectively connected with the conduct by such non-U.S. holder of a United States trade or business (or, in the case of a non-U.S. holder that qualifies for the benefits of an income tax treaty with the United
States, such gain is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed place of business of such non-U.S. holder in the United States), or (2) in the case of gain realized by an individual non-U.S. holder, such non-U.S. holder is
present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and certain other conditions are met.
Although non-U.S. holders generally are exempt from backup withholding, a non-U.S. holder may be required to comply with U.S. backup withholding and FATCA with
certification and identification procedures in order to establish such exemption - such as by providing the applicable IRS Form W-8.

ITEM 11.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The following information includes “forward-looking statements” that involve risk and uncertainties. Actual results could differ from those presented. All
information below is presented under IFRS as of December 31, 2025, in pesos.
We are exposed to market risks arising from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices and commodity prices. We use derivative instruments, on
a selective basis, to manage these risks. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We maintain and control our treasury operations and overall financial risk through policies approved by senior
management and our Board of Directors. See Note 23 to the accompanying Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein for additional disclosures about market risk.
Foreign Currency Risk
As of December 31, 2025, the Company's functional currency is the Mexican peso. However, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risks arising from the
interaction between its revenue profile, cost structure and financing arrangements.
A significant portion of the Company's revenues is denominated or referenced in U.S. dollars, while a relevant portion of its operating costs and expenses is
denominated in Mexican pesos. Additionally, a significant portion of the Company's debt is denominated in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso may affect the
Company's financial condition and results of operations.
In certain cases, revenues referenced in U.S. dollars are collected in Mexican pesos at the exchange rate prevailing on the payment date (the FIX exchange rate
published by Banco de México), which may give rise to temporary differences between revenue recognition and cash collection, as well as mismatches between operating cash flows and U.S. dollar-denominated financial obligations.
The Company has sought to mitigate its foreign exchange exposure by maintaining a significant portion of its debt denominated in U.S. dollars, which provides a
partial natural hedge. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 89.6% of the Company's total debt was denominated in U.S. dollars.
The Company believes that its strategy of maintaining a significant portion of its debt denominated in U.S. dollars contributes to partially mitigating its foreign
exchange risk exposure by generating a natural hedge against its revenues denominated or referenced in such currency. However, this strategy does not fully eliminate the risk, primarily due to the existence of cash flows and
operating costs denominated in Mexican pesos, as well as potential temporary mismatches arising from the settlement of revenues at the exchange rate prevailing on the payment date.
As a result of the evolution in its revenue structure, financing arrangements and operations, the Company assessed the factors set forth in IAS 21 and concluded that
the U.S. dollar more appropriately reflects its primary economic environment. Consequently, effective January 1, 2026, the Company's functional currency will be the U.S. dollar.
The Company does not currently hold financial derivative instruments for foreign exchange hedging purposes; however, it may in the future enter into derivative
instruments with the objective of mitigating the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on its operating costs, administrative expenses and financial results.
Should the Company utilize financial derivative instruments, its objective would be to manage specific risks and exposures, and not to enter into such transactions
for trading or speculative purposes.
To supplement the foregoing, the following table presents the Company's net monetary position in currencies other than the Mexican peso, which reflects its foreign
exchange risk exposure at the close of each period. Such exposure consists primarily of assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars and represents the basis upon which exchange rate fluctuations may impact the Company's
financial results.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Mexican peso as follows:

Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to risks arising from fluctuations in interest rates, primarily in connection with its financial debt, including bank financings, credit
facilities, supplier liabilities and lease obligations. The Company's exposure relates principally to changes in the benchmark rates used to determine the cost of its financing, such as CETES, TIIE, SOFR and, to a lesser extent, the
Prime rate. Accordingly, increases in such rates could result in higher financial costs and adversely affect the Company's results of operations and financial condition. In particular, increases in interest rates could negatively
impact financial results to the extent that a portion of its debt is contracted at variable rates. Additionally, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk in connection with the refinancing of its debt at maturity, which could
entail less favorable conditions in high-rate environments.
The Company continuously monitors the evolution of interest rates as part of its financial management, evaluating financing and refinancing alternatives in
accordance with prevailing market conditions.
The following table presents information regarding the Company's debt obligations, including principal cash flows and weighted average interest rates, distributed
according to their expected maturity dates. The information is presented in millions of Mexican pesos, which corresponds to the Company's reporting currency as of December 31, 2025.

Not applicable
The Company has in the past utilized financial derivative instruments for hedging purposes and may do so in the future; however, as of December 31, 2025, it does not
hold any outstanding derivative instruments related to interest rates.
Commodity Price Risk
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the prices of certain commodities, primarily fuels. The Company purchases diesel and other fuels in the spot market in
Mexico, as well as vessel fuel in the United States for certain operations. Accordingly, its operating costs may be affected by fluctuations in international energy prices. The Company continuously monitors fuel price trends as part
of its operational and financial management. In the past, it has entered into derivative transactions on fuel and other commodities in order to mitigate its exposure to such risks and may do so again in the future.
Inflation Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to the effects of inflation in Mexico, particularly with respect to costs and expenses denominated in Mexican pesos, including operating
costs, services and administrative expenses. An increase in inflation levels could adversely affect the Company's cost structure and, consequently, its results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, sustained increases
in inflation could generate cost pressures on key inputs for the Company's operations, as well as affect the general economic environment in which it operates.
The Company continuously monitors inflation trends as part of its financial and operational management, and seeks to mitigate its impact through cost optimization
and, where applicable, adjustments to its commercial terms.
Derivative Instruments
As of December 31, 2025, the Company did not hold any outstanding derivative instruments for hedging purposes.
ITEM 12.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OTHER THAN EQUITY SECURITIES
The Bank of New York Mellon, the depositary, charges its fees for the delivery of ADS directly to investors who deposit CPOs or who surrender ADS for withdrawal, or
to intermediaries acting on their behalf. The depositary charges fees for making distributions to investors by deducting them from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of the distributable property to pay the fees. The
depositary may charge its annual custody service fee by making deductions from cash distributions , billing investors directly, or charging participants the book-entry accounts. Generally, the depositary refuses to provide
services until its fees have been paid.
The following table sets forth the fees and charges that a holder of our ADSs may have to pay, directly or indirectly. For more complete information regarding ADRs,

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a)
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of December 31, 2025, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, of the effectiveness of its
disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a
material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, specifically related to period-end financial reporting controls due to lack of sufficient internal accounting personnel.
It is important to note that this material weakness did not result in any misstatements or restatements of the Company’s previously issued financial statements, and
management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 20-F fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods
presented.
(b)
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act. In
accordance with this responsibility, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting concluding that was not effective as of December 31, 2025, due to ineffective controls
over period end financial reporting, which is considered as a “material weakness”, without this leading to errors or restatements of the Company’s previously issued financial statements and has implemented the following plan:
Management has continued with a remediation plan to address this matter, which includes enhancing the accounting and financial reporting team,
improving segregation of duties, providing additional training, and implementing expanded monitoring and oversight controls. These actions are designed to remediate the identified weakness and to strengthen the overall control
environment.
We remain confident that these improvements will reinforce the reliability of our financial reporting, strengthen our control environment, and allow us to meet all
2026 filing requirements on time.

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
(d)
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Securities Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2025, to determine whether any change occurred during the period covered since the last report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting. Based on this evaluation, it has been determined that changes have been made during the period covered by this annual report to improve internal control over financial reporting, such as the hiring of accounting personnel
with experience and technical capacity, as well as the review and updating of accounting policies; however, these actions and others, such as the review and updating of internal processes and controls, are still in the process of
being implemented, that have affected, or are reasonably likely to affect positively, our internal control over financial reporting.

In 2025, Grupo TMM maintained a comprehensive cybersecurity approach aimed at ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of its systems
and critical information, as an essential component of its risk management strategy and operational resilience.
Our strategy is supported by a hybrid and cloud-based technology infrastructure, backed by world-class strategic partners such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Corporation and Fortinet, under a shared responsibility model that combines robust internal controls with internationally certified platforms.
Comprehensive Cyber Risk Management Framework
Grupo TMM maintains a comprehensive cybersecurity framework focused on the identification, assessment and mitigation of material risks that could
affect its operations, strategic information and digital assets. This framework includes:
•
Capabilities for prevention and reduction of the attack surface
•
Continuous monitoring of security events
•
Early threat detection
•
Automated incident response
•
Comprehensive logging and traceability of events
Through this approach, access controls, network segmentation, endpoint protection, identity management and centralized monitoring of security events are strengthened, enabling operational continuity across hybrid and cloud environments.
The incident response protocol includes classification by level of criticality, timely activation of containment and mitigation measures, and comprehensive documentation within the internal help desk platform, facilitating root cause analysis, continuous improvement and regulatory compliance.
In high-severity scenarios, the Information Technology (“IT”) area is authorized to implement preventive measures, including the controlled suspension
of operations, when necessary to protect critical assets and minimize impacts.
Critical Infrastructure and Cloud Services
ERP Platform. The Group’s ERP system (SAP
S/4HANA) is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), which provides:
•
Network firewalls and perimeter protection
•
Automated mitigation against DDoS attacks through AWS Shield Standard
•
Identity and access management (IAM) with multi-factor authentication (MFA)
•
Encryption of data in transit and at rest
•
Monitoring and auditing through AWS CloudTrail
•
Vulnerability management
•
Daily backups
•
Advanced threat detection capabilities
AWS Shield Standard provides continuous defense against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks at Layers 3 (Network) and 4 (Transport) of the OSI
model, contributing to the availability and stability of the technology infrastructure.
Corporate Communications. Organizational
communications are supported by Microsoft 365, a platform by Microsoft Corporation that integrates:
•
Advanced threat protection
•
Data encryption
•
Data loss prevention (DLP)
•
Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
In emergency or high-priority situations, incidents may be escalated directly to AWS for matters related to critical infrastructure and ERP systems, or
to Microsoft for matters related to the collaboration platform, in accordance with established protocols.
Security in Hybrid Environments
During 2025, the IT area strengthened its security model to address a hybrid and distributed work environment. Key capabilities implemented and
enhanced include:
1.
Active protection inside and outside the office
2.
Preventive web filtering
3.
Automated configuration standardization
4.
Simplified management of work profiles
5.
Early detection of anomalous behavior
6.
Real-time digital asset inventory
7.
Automated enforcement of compliance policies
8.
Remote diagnostics of device status
9.
Preventive monitoring of operational health
10.
Enhanced identity verification and access control
Security updates, patches and antivirus solutions are deployed automatically, reducing risk exposure and strengthening operational resilience.
Cybersecurity Culture and Preventive Management
Ongoing training and awareness are essential components of Grupo TMM’s cybersecurity approach. Through continuous communication and training programs,
a preventive and responsible use of digital tools is promoted.
During 2025, preventive controls and early detection mechanisms enabled the containment of attempts related to common digital threats, such as
phishing, credential compromise, business email compromise and malware distribution. None of the detected attempts resulted in the compromise of critical assets or sensitive information. Each event was documented and managed in accordance with internal protocols, strengthening organizational learning and continuous improvement.
Certifications and Compliance
The Group’s strategic providers maintain internationally recognized information security certifications, including ISO 27001, ISO 27017 and ISO 27018,
as well as SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II reports. This certified environment enhances the reliability and resilience of the technology infrastructure supporting Grupo TMM’s critical operations and contributes to mitigating material technology risks.
Governance and Oversight
The Chief Information Officer (“CIO”) leads Grupo TMM’s cybersecurity strategy and ensures alignment with industry best practices and the Company’s overall corporate strategy. The IT team reports continuously to the CIO on relevant threats and security events. In the event of high-priority incidents, the CIO reports to the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Board of Directors in the corresponding sessions.
While Grupo TMM does not have a specific Board committee or subcommittee dedicated exclusively to cybersecurity risk oversight, such risks fall within
the scope of the Corporate Governance Committee, which oversees the comprehensive management of the Group’s strategic, operational and technological risks. In this context, cybersecurity is
treated as a cross-functional strategic risk, subject to review within the overall internal control and enterprise risk management framework.
ESG Approach and Digital Resilience
The strategic availability of reliable information, continuous employee training and technology governance are integral components of Grupo TMM’s ESG approach,
strengthening operational resilience, responsible risk management and long-term sustainability.
Our cybersecurity strategy continues to evolve to anticipate and mitigate emerging threats, fostering a secure digital environment that protects the Group’s assets,
preserves business continuity and safeguards the information of our stakeholders.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Grupo TMM, S.A.B.
Opinion on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Grupo TMM, S.A.B. and subsidiaries (‘Grupo TMM’ or the ‘Company’) as of December
31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes
(collectively referred to as the ‘consolidated financial statements’). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Grupo TMM as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS
Accounting Standards).
Basis for opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in
accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part
of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing
procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical audit matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be
communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical
audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts
or disclosures to which they relate.
Impairment of long-lived assets
As described further in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the value of Grupo TMM’s long-lived assets, including intangible assets with indefinite
useful lives (trademark), amounts to $2,930,702 (thousands of pesos) and represents 64% of the total assets. In accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, Grupo TMM is required to perform impairment tests annually or more frequently if events
or changes in circumstances indicate a possible impairment.
An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair
value less costs to sell and value in use. To determine the value in use, Management estimates the expected future cash flows of each cash-generating unit and determines an appropriate interest rate to discount those cash flows.
The principal considerations for our determination that impairment of long-lived assets is a critical audit matter are due to the importance of long-lived assets in
relation to the consolidated financial statements and the complexity of accounting requirements for determining the recoverable amount and the high degree of uncertainty in the data and assumptions used.
Our audit procedures related to impairment of long-lived assets included the following, among others:
•
we evaluated the appropriate identification of the cash-generating units of the Company;
we engaged an independent valuation expert to assist us in understanding and validating the assumptions, methodologies, and data used by the Company, in particular:
-
the projections of future cash flows for each of the cash-generating units;
-
the reasonableness of the growth rates used compared to the Company’s historical growth rates and industry averages; and
-
the appropriate determination of the discount rate, including the reasonableness of the data used by the Company.
•
we validated the appropriate determination, if applicable, of any impairment loss and its appropriate accounting recognition; and
•
we verified compliance with disclosures regarding accounting policies and aspects related to the impairment of long-lived assets.
Loss of control of subsidiaries
As described further in Note Y to the consolidated financial statements, as of October 1, 2025, the Company lost control of two subsidiaries that belonged to the
Warehousing Division. This loss of control mainly comes from corporate agreements through which the Company gives a minority shareholder the right to direct the relevant activities that directly affect the returns they are entitled to or
exposed to.
Based on the loss of control, the Company stopped consolidating the assets and liabilities, as well as the income and expenses of those subsidiaries, recognizing
the balance of the equity investment retained at $52,000 (thousands of pesos) and a gain in profit or loss of $202,443 (thousands of pesos).
The principal considerations for our determination that the loss of control of subsidiaries is a critical audit matter are due to the significant judgment involved
in the control assessment carried out by the Company and the financial effects generated by the deconsolidation of these subsidiaries.
Our audit procedures related to the loss of control of subsidiaries included the following, among others:
•
we reviewed corporate documents related to the nature and rights of shares and the bylaws;
•
we verified the existence of corporate agreements that grant rights among shareholders;
•
we identified the relevant activities that significantly affect the returns to which shareholders are entitled or exposed;
•
we reviewed and analyzed the documentation and other elements that indicate who directs the relevant activities;
(Amounts in thousands of pesos, except number of shares and where otherwise indicated)

The Company’s subsidiaries are incorporated in Mexico, where most of their activities take place.
Non-controlling interest in subsidiaries
Grupo TMM holds an equity interest in the subsidiaries Administración Portuaria Integral de Acapulco, S.A. de C.V. (API Acapulco)
and Servicios Administrativos API Acapulco, S.A. de C.V., for which there is non-controlling interest; the associated effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements is considered immaterial. These companies are
established and conduct their activities in Mexico, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, these companies no longer have operations since the concession to operate API Acapulco was not renewed.
Loss of control of Almacenadora de Depósito Moderno, S.A. de C.V. (ADEMSA) and Saricogui Logística, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (Saricogui)
As of December 31, 2025, the Company holds a 99% equity
interest in ADEMSA and Saricogui, both of which were part of the Warehousing Division. As of December 31, 2024, the Company held 100%
equity in such entities.
The warehousing business overtime has become a small division for Grupo TMM, representing approximately 3%
for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2025 and 8% and 12% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, of the consolidated revenues. Grupo TMM’s business strategy is to focus on Maritime and Maritime
infrastructure divisions; therefore, the sale of the warehousing division has been considered as an option to generate additional cash flow from the sale while it allows Management to dedicate efforts and resources to those
significant divisions.
In relation to the above, Grupo TMM signed a letter of intent with the third-party specialized in the warehousing and logistics business, in which the latter expresses their interest in acquiring all the
shares representing the subsidiaries’ capital stock at a price of $40,000, payable in several installments. As of December
31, 2025, the advances received amount to $16,700 and are reported under ‘Accounts payable and accrued expenses’. The
conclusion of the sale is subject to meeting certain requirements and obtaining authorization from the relevant regulatory entities and is expected to happen in the following years. Due to the characteristics of this transaction, it
does not fall within the natures of assets held for sale nor discontinued operations according to the related IFRS standards.
With the purpose of facilitating the conclusion of this sale, Grupo TMM and the third-party signed corporate agreements that granted 1% of capital stock of ADEMSA and Saricogui to the third party along with the rights to name the majority of the Board of Directors, these agreements are
executable and non-cancelable within a 5-year period, during which the sale is expected to be completed; also the above
considered that installments received by Grupo TMM for the sale are equivalent to a 42% of the total capital stock of
warehousing business. These agreements granted to the third party the right to direct the relevant activities (definition of the business plan, determination of services to be provided and relationships with customers and suppliers,
approval of financing and other significant transactions) that directly affect the variable returns to which shareholders are entitled or are exposed and without limitation to exercise such rights, such rights were fully exercised by
the third party. Therefore, as of October 1, 2025 the Company concluded they have lost control of ADEMSA and Saricogui.
As of the date of the loss of control, the Company stopped consolidating the assets and liabilities, as well as the income and expenses of ADEMSA and Saricogui; on that date, it recognized the amount of
the retained equity investment of $52,000, which is presented under “Other non-current assets” line item and a gain of $204,443, which was recognized under “Other costs, expense and income, net” line item (see Note 17) due to the negative carrying value of
these subsidiaries at the date of loss of control in the amount of $152,443. The fair value was determined under Level 2
fair value hierarchy and market approach, considering inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset; the difference between the fair value of this equity investment and the price
set in the letter of intent is because the mentioned price comes from a private negotiation considering other benefits such as advances received and other business factors, while the fair value is determined from the market
participants’ perspective.
Statement of compliance with IFRS and going concern assumption
Grupo TMM’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board (IASB). They have been prepared under the assumption the Company operates on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to discharge its liabilities as they fall due. In confirming the validity of the
going concern basis of preparation, the Company has considered the following specific factors:
•
the
Company has generated net income for the last two years presented, with a significant increase in 2025 in which it obtained a net income of $309,492; likewise, its current assets exceed short-term liabilities by $536,411;
•
the Company generated cash flows from operating activities in the current year of $345,582, and an increase in cash and cash equivalents in that same period of $287,489;
•
as of December 31, 2025 the Company has short-term and long-term contracts with various clients. Additionally, it is in the process of negotiating the
renewal of certain contracts reaching their termination;
•
starting
in 2025, the Company participates in the program called ‘ONIX’ (see Note 6), through which PEMEX manages payments to suppliers related to services provided in the year 2025, which allows a faster recovery of its
accounts receivable from PEMEX, which as of December 31, 2025 amounted $756.3 million pesos; and
•
finally,
Management prepares an annual budget and a 5 year strategic plan, including an assessment of cash flow requirements, under periodic monitoring of its compliance.
During 2025, the
Company progressed in consolidating its operating model, highlighting the optimization of asset utilization, the strengthening of its maritime fleet through the incorporation of assets previously operated under short-term
lease conditions, as well as the commissioning of strategic assets such as the new floating dock. Likewise, these advances have contributed to strengthening its operational performance.
By 2026, the Company
will maintain its focus on operational efficiency in the logistics segment and on evaluating opportunities related to its strategically located assets in Tuxpan, Veracruz. Likewise, it will continue focusing on optimizing the
utilization of its fleet, diversifying its services and customer base, particularly in bulk cargo and hydrocarbon transportation, as well as leveraging its installed capacity in maritime infrastructure, including the new
floating dock, and evaluating alternatives to expand its operational capacity.
With a transversal
approach, the Company will maintain a disciplined focus on cost control, optimization of its operating structure, and cash flow generation.
Additionally, the
Company has begun the implementation of sustainability initiatives, in line with the applicable regulatory provisions in Mexico, which are in an initial stage of evaluation and development, as well as the strengthening of its
information technology capabilities.
Based on these factors, Management reasonably expects that the Group has and will have appropriate resources to continue operating in the foreseeable
future.
Certain amendments to the existing standards became effective on January 1, 2025, which were not applicable or had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or
consolidated results; therefore specific disclosures have not been made.
Standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective and have not been adopted
early by the Group
At the date of authorization of these consolidated financial statements, several
new, but not yet effective, Standards and amendments to existing Standards have been published by the IASB. The standards and amendments applicable to the Company that have not yet come into effect and have not been adopted early are:
•
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 7 and IFRS 9)
•
Annual amendments to IFRS (Volume 11)
•
IFRS 18 ‘Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements’
•
IFRS 19 ‘Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures’
Management anticipates that all relevant pronouncements will be adopted for the first period beginning on or after the effective date of the pronouncement. Except for IFRS 18
‘Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements’ (IFRS 18), which is mentioned below, the remaining new standards and amendments not adopted in the current year or mentioned are not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 ‘Presentation of
Financial Statements’. Although IFRS 18 includes many of the requirements of IAS 1, it introduces new requirements to better structure financial statements and to provide more detailed and useful information to investors,
including:
•
two new subtotals defined in the statement of profit or loss, namely (1) operating profit and (2) profit or loss before financing and income taxes;
•
the classification of all income and expenses within the statement of profit or loss in one of five categories;
•
a new requirement to disclose performance measures defined by management, and
•
an improvement in the principles related to the aggregation and disaggregation of information in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Some of the disclosure requirements previously contained in IAS 1 have been transferred to IAS 8 without any material changes. This applies in particular to disclosures on
accounting policies and sources of estimation uncertainty. As a result of these changes, IAS 8 will be renamed ‘Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements’.
The publication of IFRS 18 also results in consequential amendments to other IFRS Accounting Standards, including IAS 7.
IFRS 18 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with earlier application permitted. IFRS 18 will be applied retrospectively with specific
transitional provisions.
The Company is currently working to identify all of the impacts that IFRS 18 will have on the primary consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Summary of significant accounting policies
The most significant accounting policies are summarized as follows:
4.1
Basis of preparation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical
cost convention except for the revaluation of properties. Monetary amounts are expressed in Mexican pesos and are rounded to the nearest thousands, except when otherwise indicated.
4.2
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Grupo TMM and those of its subsidiaries. Grupo TMM
controls a subsidiary when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns resulting from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiary. All subsidiaries have the
reporting date of ‘December 31’, for all years reported.
The balances and transactions among subsidiaries have been eliminated for the purposes of consolidation, including
balances and unrealized gains on transactions between Grupo TMM’s companies. Unrealized losses on the sale of assets among the Company are eliminated in the consolidation and the asset involved is also reviewed for impairment from a group
perspective. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by Grupo TMM.
Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed during the year are recognized
from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.
Non-controlling interest, presented as part of the stockholders’ equity, represents the portion of the
subsidiary’s profit or loss and net assets that are not held by Grupo TMM. The Company attributes the total comprehensive income or loss of the subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interest based on their
respective ownership interests.
4.3
Climate-related issues
Risks arising from climate change issues may have future adverse effects on the Company’s business. These risks include
transition risks (e.g., regulatory changes and reputational risks) and physical risks (even if the risk of physical damage is low due to the Company’s activities and geographic location).
The Company maintains a process of analyzing and identifying significant risks related to climate change that could adversely and
materially affect its consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2025, and at the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not identified related to climate change that could materially
affect its operations or financial structure; nor are there any factors indicating the need for the recognition of provisions or conditions that could modify the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, both financial and
non-financial. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company continues to evaluate and implement initiatives aimed at improving the energy efficiency of its operations and strengthening its capacity to adapt to transitional risks,
including the analysis of self-supply energy schemes at certain facilities using renewable sources, as well as the operation of vessels with diesel-electric propulsion systems, which allow for optimizing fuel consumption and
contribute to the reduction of emissions in its operations.
Assumptions could change in response to future environmental regulations, new commitments and changes in customer demand,
particularly from Petroleos Mexicanos (PEMEX) which is one the most important companies in Mexico and one of the largest in Latin America dedicated to the exploration, production, industrial processing/refining, logistics and
marketing of hydrocarbons and derivatives. If these changes are not anticipated, they could impact the Company’s future cash flows, results of operations and financial position.
4.4
Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are reported in Mexican pesos, which is also the functional currency of
Grupo TMM.
Foreign currency balances and transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective Company entity, using
the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the measurement of monetary items denominated in foreign
currency at year-end exchange rates are recognized in profit or loss.
Non-monetary items are not retranslated at year-end and are measured at historical cost (translated using the
exchange rates at the transaction date), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value which are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.
4.5
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with other highly liquid and
short-term investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of change in their value.
The Company presents within current assets the cash and cash
equivalents that have some restriction, by virtue of the fact that it expires within 12 months following the reporting date.
Materials and supplies, consisting mainly of
fuel and items for the maintenance of property and equipment and repair of containers of the logistics, ports and terminals business and are valued at average cost and acquisition value, respectively.
4.7
Prepaid expenses
Represent prepaid expenses for services that will be received in the future and are amortized in the period when
those services are received.
4.8
Property and operating equipment
Properties
The properties (land and buildings) are measured at fair value, which are determined by external professional
valuers every five years or before if the market factors indicate a significant change in the fair value. The last valuation
of these assets was in December 2024.
The revaluation surplus (deficit) that is derived from the valuation of properties is recognized as part of ‘Other
comprehensive income items’ and forms part of ‘other capital components’ in stockholders’ equity. A revaluation surplus is credited to income up to an amount equivalent to any revaluation write-down or impairment loss previously
recognized income. Any excess is recognized in ‘Other comprehensive income items’ and in stockholders’ equity in the item of ‘Revaluation surplus’. Revaluation write-downs or impairment losses are recognized in ‘Other comprehensive income
items’ up to the amount previously recognized on that asset in stockholders’ equity in the item of ‘Revaluation surplus’.
Any remaining decrease is recognized in income for the year. Any remaining balance of the revaluation surplus in
stockholders’ equity at the time of disposing of the asset that gave rise thereto is reclassified to retained earnings. Moreover, any remaining balance of the revaluation surplus in stockholders’ equity may not be distributed to
stockholders.
The depreciation of properties is recognized using the straight-line method to write down its carrying value less
its estimated residual value. As no finite useful life for land can be determined, the related carrying amounts are not depreciated.
Operating equipment
Operating equipment is stated at construction or acquisition cost, including any cost directly attributable to
bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by Grupo TMM’s Management. Depreciation of equipment is computed using the straight-line method based on the useful
lives of the assets net of the estimated residual value. The estimated useful life of equipment is as follows:
Recurring maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to operating expenses as incurred. Major repairs to are
capitalized and amortized over the period in which benefits are expected to be received. The material residual values and the estimated useful life are adjusted as necessary, at least once a year.
Gains or losses from the disposal of property and equipment are determined as differences between the disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognized in profit or loss as part of ‘Other, costs, expenses and income, net’, accordingly.
Construction in progress
Disbursements attributable to construction of assets that are identifiable and may be controlled by the Company
are recognized as assets when they meet the following conditions:
●
it is technically possible to complete the construction of the asset so that it can be available to be used;
●
management has the intent of completing the asset to use it;
●
it can be proven that the asset will generate economic benefits in the future;
●
adequate technical, financial or another type of resources are available to complete the asset; and
●
the disbursement attributable to the asset during its construction can be determined reliably.
4.9
Leased assets
The Company as lessee
The Company makes use of leasing arrangements principally of warehouse, courtyards and corporate building. The
rental contracts for facilities are typically negotiated for terms of between 1 and 5 years and some of these have extension terms. The Company does not enter into sale and leaseback arrangements. All the leases are negotiated on an individual basis
and contain a wide variety of different terms and conditions.
The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract. A lease conveys the
right to direct the use and obtain substantially all of the economic benefits of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Some lease contracts contain both lease and non-lease components. These non-lease components are usually
associated with facilities management services. The Company has elected to separate their lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices.
Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee
At lease commencement date, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in its consolidated
statement of financial position. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability.
The Company depreciates the right-of-use asset on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the
earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The Company also assesses the right-of-use asset for impairment when such indicators exist.
At the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments
unpaid at that date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate on the date of the revaluation when the implicit lease rate cannot be easily determined.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed payments and variable
payments based on an index or rate.
Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced by lease payments that are allocated between
repayments of principal and finance costs. The finance cost is the amount that produces a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liability.
The lease liability is reassessed when there is a change in the lease payments or changes in lease payments arise
from a change in the lease term. The revised lease payments are discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the date of reassessment when the rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined. The amount of the
remeasurement of the lease liability is reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset.
Payments under leases can also change when change through an index or a rate used to determine those payments. The
lease liability is remeasured only when the adjustment to lease payments takes effect and the revised contractual payments for the remainder of the lease term are discounted using an unchanged discount rate.
The remeasurement of the lease liability is dealt with by a reduction in the carrying amount of the right-of-use
asset to reflect the full or partial termination of the lease for lease modifications that reduce the scope of the lease. Any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease is recognized in profit or loss. The
right-of-use asset is adjusted for all other lease modifications.
The Company has elected to account for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets using the practical
expedients. Instead of recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are recognized as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Software licenses acquired are capitalized on the basis of costs incurred to acquire and install the specific
software.
Trademark
The trademark acquired in a business combination that qualifies for separate recognition is considered an
intangible asset and is recorded at its fair value.
Subsequent measuring
All finite-lived intangible assets are accounted for using the cost model by which the
acquisition cost is amortized using the straight-line method throughout their estimated useful lives, which corresponds to the term of the licenses. The trademark is considered an intangible asset with an indefinite life; therefore, it is
subject to impairment tests annually as described in Note 11.
The amortization is included in the consolidated statements of profit or loss as part of ‘Depreciation,
amortization and loss from revaluation’.
4.11
Impairment testing of long-lived assets
For impairment assessment purposes, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely
independent cash inflows (cash-generating units). As a result, Company’s assets are tested for impairment at cash-generating unit level, which corresponds to operating segments reported by the Company.
Trademark is allocated to the cash-generating unit to operating segment ‘Maritime Division’, that is expected to
benefit from its usage and represent the lowest level within the Company at which Management monitors the trademark.
Cash-generating unit to which trademark has been allocated is tested for impairment at least annually. All other
cash-generating units are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the cash-generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds its
recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. To determine the value-in-use, management estimates expected future cash flows from each cash-generating unit and determines a suitable
discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.
The data used for impairment testing procedures are directly linked to Grupo TMM’s latest approved budget,
adjusted as necessary to exclude the effects of future reorganizations and asset enhancements. Discount rates are determined individually for each cash-generating unit and reflect current market assessments of the time value of money and
asset-specific risk factors.
Impairment losses for cash-generating units reduce first the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to that
cash-generating unit. Any remaining impairment loss is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash-generating unit.
All assets are subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment loss previously recognized may no
longer exist. An impairment loss is reversed if the cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount exceeds its carrying amount.
4.12
Financial instruments
Recognition and derecognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the financial instrument.
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flow from a financial asset expire, or
when the financial asset and all the substantial risks and benefits have been transferred. A financial liability is derecognized as extinguished, discharged, canceled, or expired.
Classification and initial measurement of financial assets
Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the
transaction price in accordance with IFRS 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value, adjusted by transaction costs (where applicable).
Financial assets are classified into the following categories:
●
amortized cost.
●
fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
●
fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
In the periods presented the Company does not have any financial assets categorized as FVOCI.
The classification is determined by both:
●
the Company’s business model for managing the financial asset; and
●
the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognized in profit or loss are
presented within financing costs; except for impairment of trade receivables which is presented in the line item ‘Other costs, expenses and income, net’.
Financial assets are measured at amortized cost if the assets meet the following conditions:
●
they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its contractual cash flows, and;
●
the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.
After initial recognition, these are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The financial
assets of the Company are not discounted since it is not material. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and part of the other accounts receivable and accounts receivable from related parties fall into this category
of financial instruments.
Impairment of financial assets
IFRS 9’s impairment requirements use more forward-looking information to recognize expected
credit losses – the ‘expected credit loss (ECL) model’. Instruments within the scope of the new requirements included mainly trade receivables, contract assets recognized and measured under IFRS 15, other accounts receivable and accounts
receivable from related parties.
Recognition of credit losses considers a broader range of information when assessing credit
risk and measuring expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument.
Grupo TMM makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other accounts receivables as well as
contract assets and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial
instrument. In calculating, the Company uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking information to calculate the expected credit losses.
The Company assess impairment of trade receivables based on the characteristics of the business segment, when
appropriate this assessment is made on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics, they have been grouped based on the days past due. Refer to Note 24, for a detailed analysis of how the impairment requirements
of IFRS 9 are applied.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
This category includes an equity investment held by Grupo
TMM. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. The fair value of the equity investment is determined by using a valuation technique since there is no active market for this
financial asset, according to valuation technique, the fair value was determined under Level 2 fair value hierarchy and market approach, considering inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable
for the asset.
In connection with the equity investment, as is mentioned in Note 1, despite the 99% participation of the Company, the later does not retain rights relating to designation of board members or key Management, also does not
have involvement in policy-making processes, relevant transactions, sharing managerial personnel or other essential resources. Therefore, the Company concluded that there is no significant influence according to IAS 28 “Investments in
Associates and Joint Ventures” and the investment is classified as equity investment in accordance with IFRS 9.
Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
The Company’s financial liabilities include borrowings, trade, related parties and other payables. Financial
liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
All interest-related charges are recognized in profit or loss within financing costs.
4.13
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognized when the present obligations resulting from a past event will probably lead to an
outflow of the Company economic resources and the amounts can be reliably estimated. Timing or amount of the outflow may still be uncertain. A present obligation arises from a presence of a legal or constructive commitment that has
resulted from past events. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Provisions are the estimated amounts required to be expended to settle the present obligation based on the most
reliable evidence available at the date of the consolidated financial statements, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Provisions are discounted at their present value, where the time value of
money is material. Provisions are included as part of the line item ‘Accounts payable and accrued expenses’; since they are not significant, it was not considered necessary to include other disclosures
required by applicable standards.
All provisions are reviewed on the issuance of the financial statements and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimate. When an outflow of economic resources for present obligations is not probable, this is not recognized as a liability, unless it was assumed in the course of a business combination. Such cases are disclosed as contingent
liabilities unless the outflow of resources is remote.
Possible inflows of the Company’s economic benefits, which do not yet meet the criteria for recognition of an
asset, are considered as contingent assets.
4.14
Income taxes
Calculation of current income tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially
enacted to the reporting date of the consolidated financial statements.
Deferred income tax is determined using the liability method, based on temporary differences arising between the
tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Determination of deferred income tax has considered tax rates that will be effective at the time of reversion of the temporary differences.
The income tax expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss includes the sum of the deferred tax, which
has not been recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in stockholders’ equity, and the current income tax for the year.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit against which
temporary differences can be utilized will be available (see Note 19).
This is assessed based on the Company’s forecast of future operating results, adjusted for significant items that
are reconciled for the taxable income and the limits on the use of tax losses and other tax asset carryforwards.
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates,
except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The Company evaluates whether any tax position meets
the definition of uncertain tax treatment, based on the facts and circumstances at the reporting date. An uncertain tax treatment is a tax treatment that is likely to be challenged by the tax authority in hypothetical tax review. The
Company assesses the probability of the outcome using the most likely method and determines if a provision or disclosure is required based on the probability (see Note 26).
4.15
Statutory employee profit sharing (PTU for its acronym in Spanish)
The determination of PTU requires that a 10% rate be applied to the base calculated for that profit sharing, in accordance with
the Income Tax Law. This amount determined must be allocated to each employee based on the provisions of The Federal Labor (LFT for its acronym in Spanish). However, the amount allocated to each employee may not exceed the greater
between the equivalent of 3 months of the employee’s current salary or the average of PTU received by the employee in the previous three years.
4.16
Post-employment benefits and benefits for short-term employees
Post-employment benefits
Defined benefit plans
The seniority pension to which employees are entitled after 15 years of service and after having retired at the age of 60,
are expensed in the years in which the services are rendered (see Note 21).
In addition, the Company has pension plans for certain employees who retire after the age of 65 (or early retirement at 60
or 55), in addition to having completed a minimum 15 years of service, which are expensed in the years in which the services are rendered (see Note 21).
Under the defined benefits plan, the pension amount an employee will receive upon retirement is determined in
reference to the time of service and salary determined for each case based on the plan. The legal obligation of the benefits lies with Grupo TMM, even if the plan’s assets to finance the defined benefits plan are separate. The plan’s
assets may include assets specifically designated in a long-term benefit fund.
The liability recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position for the defined benefits plans is the
present value of the defined benefits obligation (DBO) as of the reporting date less the fair value of the plan assets.
Management estimates the DBO annually with the assistance of independent actuaries, based on the standard
inflation rate, the salary growth rates, and the mortality rate. The discount factors are determined near the close of each year in reference to the high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits
will be paid and which have maturities similar to the terms of the corresponding pension liability.
The net cost for the defined benefits liability period is included in the item ‘Salaries, wages and employee
benefits’ in the consolidated statements of profit or loss.
Indemnifications
Indemnifications that are not substitutive of retirement, paid to personnel who leave the company due to
restructuring or any other reason, are charged to the operations for the period when incurred or provisions are created when there is a present obligation of these events, with a probability of an outflow of resources and this obligation
can be reasonably estimated. For the purposes of IAS 19 ‘Employee Benefits’, this concept is not considered a benefit within the scope of that standard; nevertheless, since it is considered an obligation assumed by the Company, the
corresponding liability is recognized based on actuarial calculations and, due to its nature, it is presented as part of the ‘Employee benefits’ line item in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Termination of the employment relationship
Indemnifications for termination correspond to the
obligation due to the end of the employment relationship. These benefits are recognized when the employment contract finishes, and the Company provides payment for this concept.
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits, including vacation entitlement, are short-term liabilities included in ‘Accounts
payable and accrued expenses’, measured at the amount Grupo TMM expects to pay as a result of time not taken; as these liabilities are short-term, they were not discounted as their effect is considered immaterial.
4.17
Stockholders’ equity
Common shares are classified as equity. Grupo TMM does not have other equity instruments in addition to its common
shares.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction,
net of taxes, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are included in the cost of acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.
The accumulated results include the profit (loss) for the year and previous periods.
revaluation surplus, including gains and losses from the revaluation of properties;
●
legal reserve corresponds to the separation of earnings withheld for this reserve;
●
additional paid-in capital is equivalent to the amount received in excess of the par value of the shares;
●
translation result represents the cumulative effect of the change in functional currency in previous years, and;
●
actuarial gains and losses include experience adjustments (the effects of differences between the previous actuarial assumptions and what has actually
occurred); and the effects of changes in actuarial assumptions.
4.18
Recognition of revenue, costs and expenses, and financing costs
Revenues
Company’s revenue arises mainly from services of maritime transportation, logistics and warehousing. To determine
whether to recognize revenue, the Company follows a 5-step process:
1.
Identifying the contract with a customer.
2.
Identifying the performance obligations.
3.
Determining the transaction price.
4.
Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations.
5.
Recognizing revenue when/as performance obligation(s) are satisfied.
The Company does not carry out transactions that involve different contracts and on which their characteristics
must be combined in accordance with IFRS. Moreover, transactions are not usually carried out that involve different services as part of the same contract; therefore, the total price of the transaction for a contract in all cases is
allocated to a single performance obligation. The transaction price for contracts does not consider variable payments nor does it include financing components, nor are payments in kind, nor amounts collected on behalf of third parties and
nor contemplate a financing component.
All revenues are recognized over time, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided
by the Company’s performance as the entity performs.
When the Company satisfies a performance obligation before receiving the payment, the Company recognizes either a
contract asset or a receivable in its consolidated statement of financial position, depending upon if something else is required than only passage of time before the consideration becomes due. The Company generally does not receive
payments in advance in connection with unsatisfied performance obligations; except for vessels repair services, therefore, of the latter, it is necessary to recognize contract liabilities, which balance at the reporting date is
insignificant.
In obtaining these contracts, the Company incurs immaterial incremental costs. Since the amortization period of
these costs would be less than one year, if capitalized, and also that those costs are immaterial, the Company makes use of the practical expedient in IFRS and expenses them as they incur.
These revenues derive from the transport of materials, personnel, equipment and spare parts, positioning and handling of anchors of marine
platforms and barges, support for inspection and underwater exploration with specialized vessels, protection services provided with ships against fire, and administration and operation of ships to third parties, as well as offshore and
in-port fluid processing services, through Grupo TMM or third-party vessels, usually in periods of 1 year for ‘time charter’
contracts and 1 to 30 days,
under the ‘SPOT’ mode, the rate is fixed and is established at the beginning of the contract based on market prices.
The performance obligation is satisfied when the offshore services are provided and received by the customers, the revenues are recognized over
time on a straight-line basis over the term of each contract. Since the costs required to provide service under these contracts do not vary significantly, such method best depicts the transfer of services.
Parcel vessels and bulk carriers
These revenues are derived from the transportation of merchandise through the Company’s own shipments or third
parties, usually in periods ranging between 7 to 30 days. The rate is fixed and it is set at the beginning of the contract, based on the space or capacity required by the customer. The performance obligation is met as the
merchandise is transported from the point of origin to the destination. Revenues are recognized over time on a straight-line basis during the term of each contract. Given that the costs required for rendering the service under these
contracts do not vary significantly, that method provides a reasonable representation of the services transferred. The contract for the transportation service of petrochemicals between the ports of Houston TX –Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz
concluded in December 2025 according to its contractual terms, without subsequent renewal, in line with the Company’s strategy to focus on higher profitability and operational efficiency; the bulk carrier service ceased operations
effective in 2023, resuming operations in October 2025, under the spot service modality, mainly for steel transportation, through the hiring of third-party vessels according to market conditions.
Ship repair services (shipyard) and containers
Correspond to revenues for minor and major repairs and maintenance to ships made at the facilities of the Company
(shipyard), as well as containers of shipping companies and others such as wharfage. The consideration for the services is fixed, and it is determined in the contract based on the work ordered, including materials and replacement parts,
which must be realized in an estimated period for the work, which ranges from 2 days up to 60 days for ships, and from 1 day
up to 6 days for containers. Wharfage depends on the considerations of the ship from 1 to 30 days for most services and occasionally up to
90 days, due to the high degree of interdependence among the various elements of these services. They are recorded in the
accounting as a single performance obligation. These revenues are recognized over time in conformity with the completion of the services agreed upon.
The Company measures its completion toward total compliance of the performance obligation by comparing real hours
invested up to the date with the total estimated hours required to perform the repair or maintenance, including related costs. This base reasonably represents services transferred to each customer, by virtue of the ability of the Company
to make reliable estimates based on its historical experience in rendering these services.
The Company obtains immaterial revenues from other services such as,
intermediation in the purchase and sale of hydrocarbons, agency, port formalities, among other things. These services are considered single performance obligations in terms of the respective contracts, and the consideration is entirely
allocated to those performance obligations. Revenues are recognized over time, since customers receive and consume the benefits as the Company renders the services, that is, as the performance obligations are met. The Company does not
generate asset balances or contract liabilities for most of these services. The Company acts as an agent for the specific case of agency and intermediation in the purchase and sale of hydrocarbons and, therefore, it recognizes the
revenues corresponding to the profit margin generated in the transaction.
Costs and expenses
The costs and expenses for maritime, and those related to other logistics operations, are recognized in operations
when the services are rendered, materials are consumed or as incurred.
Financing income and costs
Interest income and expense are reported as accrued using the effective interest method and are reported within
the financing cost.
4.19
Information by segments
The Company hasfouroperating segments: maritime division, maritime infrastructure division, logistics, ports and terminals division and warehousing division. These operating segments are monitored by the
Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), which is the Chief Executive Officer, who is responsible for making strategic decisions, which are made based on adjusted operating segment results. In identifying its operating
segments. CODM follows Grupo TMM’s service lines, which represent the main services provided by the Company.
Each of these operating segments is managed separately as each of these service lines requires different
technologies and other resources as well as marketing approaches. All inter-segment transfers are carried out at market prices.
The accounting policies Grupo TMM uses for segment reporting are the same as those used in its consolidated
financial statements, with the exception that corporate assets which are not directly attributable to the business activities of any operating segment are not allocated. In the financial periods presented, this primarily applies to Grupo
TMM’s corporate headquarters.
4.20
Significant management judgment in applying accounting policies and estimation uncertainty
When preparing the consolidated financial statements, Management considers a number of judgments, estimates and
assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
The reporting judgments made by Management as to the application of the accounting policies of the Company that
would have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements are described as follows:
Evaluation of control, significant influence, and joint control
Management evaluates the terms of voting power with respect to its investees, the power to govern, decisions,
contractual and legal agreements, upon determining if there is control, significant influence, and joint control. Significant judgment is required by evaluating some of these characteristics that can be modified over time (see Note 4.2).
Estimation uncertainty
Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the recognition and
measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below; actual results may be substantially different.
Fair value measurement
Management uses valuation techniques to measure the
fair value of its properties. This results in Management developing estimates and assumptions based on market information and using observable and unobservable data that would be used by market participants to assign a price to the
asset. These fair value estimates for these non-financial assets can vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm’s length transactions at the reporting date (see Note 23).
Impairment of long-lived assets
On assessing impairment, Management determines the recoverable value of each cash generating unit based on the
expected future cash flows and determines an adequate interest rate to be able to calculate the present value of these cash flows.
The uncertainty in the estimate is related to the assumptions regarding results of future operations and the determination of
appropriate discount rate. During 2025 and 2024, the Company performed impairment tests without determining impairment losses (see Note 11).
Defined benefits obligation
Management’s estimate of the DBO is based on a number of critical assumptions, such as inflation rates, mortality
rates, discount rate, and a consideration for future salary increases. The variances in these assumptions can impact the amount of the DBO and the corresponding annual expense for defined benefits (the analysis is provided in Note 21).

In 2025, the bank Banco Nacional de Obras y Servicios Públicos (Banobras), in coordination with the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (SHCP for its
acronym in Spanish), established a financial vehicle called ‘ONIX’ through which PEMEX will manage payments to suppliers for services rendered. The ONIX program will have resources of up to 250 billion pesos and is financed through credit programs from development banks, including Banobras, Nacional Financiera, S.N.C. (NAFIN) y Banco Nacional de
Comercio Exterior, S.N.C. (BANCOMEXT), as well as commercial banks and other institutional investors. The Company is currently part of the program, which has enabled a timelier recovery of accounts receivable for rendered services,
subject to compliance with the corresponding validation processes by PEMEX. As of December 31, 2025, and up to the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Company has recovered accounts receivable through this
program in the amount of $756.3 million pesos.
All amounts are short-term. The net carrying value of trade accounts receivables is considered a reasonable approximation to fair value.

Guarantees
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, a property owned by the Company was pledged as collateral in connection with financing entered into with Banco Nacional de
Comercio Exterior (BANCOMEXT), intended for the acquisition of the floating dock, including the establishment of real guarantees over it. In addition, as of December 31, 2025, the financing entered into with Grupo Financiero Inbursa for
the acquisition of two vessels is secured by a maritime mortgage on said vessels and the assignment as collateral of the
collection rights arising from contracts with PEMEX. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, the financing entered into with Atrafin LLC involves the participation of Grupo TMM, S.A.B. as a joint obligor, which implies joint
responsibility in fulfilling such obligations, without any requirement having been made to date for the joint obligor to fulfill these obligations.
Grupo TMM leases warehouses for the storage service, cranes for the logistics services and a major vessel maintenance. With the exception of short-term leases and low-value
underlying assets, each lease is reflected on the consolidated statement of financial position as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability.
Each lease generally imposes a restriction that, unless there is a contractual right for the Company to sublet the asset to another party, the right-of-use
asset can only be used by the Company.
Leases are either non-cancellable or may only be cancelled by incurring a substantive termination fee. Some leases contain an option to extend the lease for
a further term.
Grupo TMM is prohibited from selling or pledging the underlying leased assets as guarantee. For leases over office buildings and warehouses, Grupo TMM must
keep those properties in a good state of repair and return the properties. Further, Grupo TMM must insure items of leases assets and incur maintenance fees on such items in accordance with the lease contracts.

(a)
Corresponds to the rights on the ‘Marmex’ trademark associated with the maritime division segment, specifically the
offshore vessels operation. This trademark is subject to annual impairment testing (see Note 11). The trademark is considered an intangible asset with an indefinite life since it is not possible to determine a specific time frame
for the future economic benefits expected to be obtained; likewise, there is a high degree of certainty of maintaining the contractual rights of the trademark indefinitely.
The accumulated amortization of intangible assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, is $20,718 and $17,117, respectively.
11
Impairment of long-lived assets
Impairment test
The Group performs annual impairment tests on cash-generating unit related to the trademark or more frequently if there are indicators that such or other
cash-generating units may be impaired.
For the purpose of the annual impairment test, the carrying
amount of the trademark of $125,528, in both years, is allocated to the cash-generating unit expected to benefit from
its use, in this case in the maritime division segment. The recoverable amount was determined based on the value in use.
The calculation of the value in use is determined by covering a detailed 5-year forecast, approved by Management, with expected cash flows beyond the 5-year period
extrapolated over the remaining useful lives using a declining growth rate determined by Management. The present value of the expected cash flows of the cash-generating unit is determined by applying an appropriate discount rate,
which reflects the assessment of current market conditions of the time value of money and specific risks applicable.
The value of the key assumptions used reflects historical data from external and internal sources and are shown below:
2025

%
Discount rate

%
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no
impairment losses were determined for these assets.
Growth rate
The growth rates reflect the long-term average for rates for the operating segment. At this stage and considering the Group’s direct exposure to climate
changes, Management has considered that growth rates have not been significantly affected and remain consistent with the long-term outlook of its industry and the expectations of market participants.
Discount rate
The discount rate reflects adequate adjustments associated with the market risk and the specific risk factors.
Cash flow assumptions
The key assumptions of Management for the operating segments include stable profit margins, which have been determined based on experience in this market.
Grupo TMM Management considers this to be the best information available to forecast this market. The cash flow projections reflect stable profit margins achieved before the period covered by said projections. At this stage, these assumptions and
the Company’s climate strategy have not resulted in a material impact on the recoverable amount of its long-lived assets.
No consideration has been given to efficiency improvements and prices reflect the inflation projected for the industry, which are publicly available.
In addition to the considerations described above for determining the value in use of the cash-generating unit, Management is currently not aware of any other
probable change of the key assumptions that could cause the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit to be greater than the recoverable amount, therefore disclosures about sensitivities in the assumptions are not considered
relevant.

Stockholders’ equity
Capital stock
As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company’s capital stock is comprised of 174,553,127
shares outstanding, registered, without par value, and with voting rights, in both years, which may be held by Mexican nationals, investors, or companies that include in their bylaws the exclusion of foreigners’ clause.
At the General Extraordinary Stockholders’ Meeting held on March 16, 2023, the Company’s stockholders agreed to increase capital stock in
the amount of $151,978 through the issuance of up to 72,370,286 common, nominative shares, without par value, representing the capital stock of Grupo TMM. This capital increase was authorized by the CNBV through official letter
number 153/5296/2023 dated June 27, 2023 and subscribed in full by the stockholders in October 2023.
Legal reserve
According to the General Law on Mercantil Corporations, a minimum of 5% of net profits for the year must be separated
to constitute the legal reserve, until its amount reaches 20% of the capital stock at par value.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the legal reserve amounts to $216,948, which is presented in the item line ‘Other capital components’ and is part of the stockholders’ equity.
Net tax profit account (CUFIN)
As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the restated balance of the Net Taxable Income Account (CUFIN for its acronym in Spanish) of the parent Company amounts to $4,878,300 and $4,704,696,
respectively, which was generated up to December 31, 2013, and thereafter no new balances have been generated in this
account.
The distribution of dividends or profits to shareholders that come from the balance of the CUFIN, generated until December 31, 2013, will not generate income tax until such balance is
exhausted. Dividends paid to individuals and corporations resident abroad, on profits generated as of January 1, 2014, are subject to a 10%
tax, which is considered a final payment.
Dividends not drawn from the CUFIN, in addition to the above, will continue to be subject to income tax, paid by the entity, based on the general rate set by law, which is
definitive and may be credited against the income tax for this and the next two years. The balance in these accounts is
susceptible to adjustment to the distribution date using the Mexican Consumers’ Price Index (INPC for its acronym in Spanish).
Capital decreases
As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the current balance in the Capital Contribution Account (CUCA for its acronym in Spanish) is $6,719,140 and $6,433,442, respectively. In the event of
capital reimbursement or decreases in favor of stockholders, the surplus for said reimbursement on this amount will be treated as distributed earnings.
In the event the equity capital exceeds the balance in the CUCA, the difference will be considered a dividend or distributed earnings subject to the payment of income tax. If the
earnings in reference come from the CUFIN, there will be no corporate tax due to the capital decrease or reimbursement. Otherwise, these will be treated as dividends or distributed earnings.

Revenue obtained up to September 30, 2025. Effective from October 1, 2025, The Company stopped consolidating this segment due to the loss of control of subsidiaries (see Note 1).
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company obtained revenues from PEMEX Exploración y Producción, CFEnergía and Celanese Operations Mexico, representing 50%, 21% and 3%, respectively. None of the remaining customers represents more than 2% of the total revenues.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company obtained revenues from PEMEX Exploración y Producción, CFEnergía and Celanese Operations Mexico, representing 28%, 14% and 11%, respectively. None of the remaining customers represents more than 4% of the total revenues.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company obtained revenues from PEMEX Exploración y Producción, Celanse Operations Mexico and Helmsley Management, representing 38%, 13% and 6%, respectively. None of the remaining customers represent more than 4% of the total revenues.
The Company considers that the risk of concentration is reasonable due to its operation and the industry in which it operates. The Company’s strategic plans
include gradually reducing the concentration of its revenues and customers from the maritime operation segment, by strengthening its maritime infrastructure and logistics operations, ports and terminals, which have a broader
market with a lower concentration of customers.
The Company’s revenues do not show any other particular grouping characteristic, such as by type of customer (government and private), geographic zone, etc. The main grouping is shown based on the type
of revenue for each segment. Moreover, as discussed in Note 4.18, all of the Company’s revenues are recognized over time.

Interest expense and other financial costs
As of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, this line item is comprised as follows:
Grupo TMM and subsidiaries incurred combined tax losses for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, in the amounts of $52,316, $448,374 and $156,078, respectively.
For year ended December 31, 2025 most of the companies that generated tax income amortized them with tax losses from prior years for an amount of $123,327. Part of the income tax recognized in profit or loss corresponds to subsidiaries that generated taxable income of $8,173, $28,913 and $14,840, for 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The difference between taxable income and book income is due primarily to the net effect of the gain or loss on inflation recognized for tax purposes, the difference between tax
and book amortization and depreciation, non-deductible expenses, as well as certain temporary differences reported in different periods for financial and tax purposes.
In accordance with the currently enacted Income Tax Law, the rate for 2023, 2024, 2025, and subsequent years is 30%.
The provision for income tax recognized in the statement of profit or loss for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, is as follows:

The long-term liabilities recognized for pensions and other employee remunerations in the consolidated statement of financial position are comprised as follows:
The short-term liabilities for employee benefits, are included in the line ‘Accounts payable and accrued expenses’ in the consolidated statements of financial position, which as
of December 31, 2025 and 2024, amounted to $4,178 and $4,122, respectively (see Note 14).
Remunerations on the termination of employment
The seniority premiums and the retirement plan (‘pensions’) obligations are based on actuarial calculations using the projected unit credit method. Pension benefits are based
mainly on years of service, age, and salary level upon retirement.
The amounts charged to operations include the amortization of the cost of past services over the average time of service remaining. The Company continues with its policy of
recognizing actuarial losses and gains for seniority premiums and pensions in consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the actuarial gain net of taxes for 2025 and 2024 was $37 and $3,186, respectively (see Note 21).
The plan exposes Grupo TMM to such risks as interest rate, investment, mortality, and inflation.
Interest rate risk
The present value of the defined benefits obligation is calculated using a discount rate making reference to the market performance of high-quality corporate bonds.
The estimated term for the bonds is consistent with the estimated term for the defined benefits obligation and is denominated in pesos. A decrease in the market performance of
high-quality corporate bonds will increase the defined benefits obligation of the Company, although this is expected to be partially compensated by an increase in the fair value of certain of the plan’s assets.
Investment risk
The plan assets are predominantly capital and debt instruments traded on the Mexican Stock Exchange which are considered low risk.
Mortality risk
The Company provides benefits for life to those who are covered by the defined benefits plan. An increase in the life expectancy of such persons will increase the defined
benefits liability.
Inflation risk
A significant proportion of the defined benefits obligation is linked to inflation. An increase in the inflation rate will increase the Company’s obligation.
The details of the net cost for the period for seniority premiums and termination of employment, and also the basic actuarial estimates for the calculation of these labor
obligations were shown as follows:

These assumptions were prepared by Management with the assistance of independent actuaries. The discount factors are determined near the end of each year making reference to the
market performance of high-quality corporate bonds denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid and which have similar maturities to the terms for the pension obligation corresponding. Other assumptions are based on
actual reference parameters and Management’s historical experience.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 10% and 8%, respectively, of the Company’s employees are employed under collective labor agreements. Under those contracts, labor compensation is subject to annual
negotiation, while other compensations are negotiable every two years. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, Grupo TMM has500 and 720
employees in both years.
The significant actuarial assumptions to determine the defined benefits obligation are the discount rate, the salary increase rate, and the average life expectancy. The
calculation of the defined benefits obligation is sensitive to these assumptions.
The following table summarizes the effects of identified changes to these actuarial assumptions could have on the defined benefits obligations as of December 31, 2025, if they
would have been used:

The present value of the defined benefits obligation and also the defined benefits obligation recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position are calculated using
the same method (projected unit credit). The sensitivity analyses are based on a change in one assumption without changing the others. This sensitivity analysis may not be representative of the real variance in the defined benefits
obligation, as it is unlikely that the change to the assumptions would occur on its own, as some of the assumptions may be correlated.
22
Earnings per share
For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, earnings per share was determined based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. There are no potentially dilutive instruments outstanding, therefore basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.
23
Fair value measurement
Fair value measures for non-financial assets
The non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position are grouped into three levels of fair value hierarchy. The three levels are
defined based on the observability of relevant data for the measuring, as follows:
•
Level 1: quoted prices (without adjustment) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
•
Level 2: data other than the quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly;
•
Level 3: non-observable data for the asset or liability.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 non-financial assets measured at fair value were classified in Level 2 of this hierarchy, as described below:
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, fair value of the Company’s properties were estimated based on appraisals performed by independent, professionally qualified property valuers.
As mentioned in the Company’s accounting policy, for the properties the last appraisal was carried out in December 2024, so the amounts as of December 31, 2025, correspond to the balances as of December 31, 2024, adjusted for additions
and disposals of assets. Likewise, based on the Company’s assessment, no factors were identified that suggest there have been significant changes in fair value.
The important information and assumptions are prepared in close collaboration with Management. The
valuation processes and changes in the fair value are reviewed by the Administration and Finance Department on the financial reporting date. Additional information on fair value measurement is as follows.
Buildings and lands (Level 2)
The valuation was prepared based on a market approach that reflects the prices observed on recent market transactions involving similar properties and incorporates immaterial
adjustments for factors specific to the property in question, including land size, location, liens, and current use.
Some of the unobservable information used, is the adjustment for factors specific to the properties in question for the factors previously described such as
land size, location, liens, negotiation conditions, among others. The magnitude and direction of this immaterial adjustment depends on the characteristics of observable market transactions for similar properties used as the end point for
the valuation. Although this information is subjective, Management considers that the global valuation will not be materially affected by reasonably possible alternatives.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the reconciliation between the carrying amounts of non-financial assets classified within Level 2 was as follows:

The fair value of the equity investment is determined by using a market approach by using a combination of two valuation techniques “Multiples of comparable
public companies” and “Multiples of comparable company transactions”, these techniques reflect the prices observed for similar public entities and on recent transactions involving similar entities, without requiring a significant
adjustments for other specific factors.
As of December 31, 2025, the reconciliation between the carrying amounts of the financial asset classified within Level 2 was as
follows:

Financial instruments risk
Risk management objectives and policies
Grupo TMM is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities by category are summarized in Note 12. The main types
of risks are market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Company’s risk management is coordinated at its headquarters, in close cooperation with the board of directors, and focuses on actively securing short to medium-term cash
flows by minimizing the exposure to volatile financial markets.
The Company does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes nor does it write options. The most significant financial risk to which the
Company is exposed are described below:
Market risk
Currency risk
The monetary position for Grupo TMM may be materially affected by variances in the exchange rate between the US dollar and the Mexican peso due to the Company’s significant
operations in Mexico. The Company does not cover this exposure. Grupo TMM minimizes its exposure effects in foreign currency by contracting financial debt in Mexican pesos.
Grupo TMM also faces transactional currency exposure. This exposure derives from sales and acquisitions made in currencies other than Mexican pesos, Grupo TMM’s functional
currency. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 90% and 73% of Grupo TMM’s sales are denominated in US dollars, respectively while approximately 49% and 35% of the costs and expenses for both years
are denominated in US dollars.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies other than the Mexican peso, translated at the corresponding
interbank exchange rate as related to the Mexican peso, as follows:
As of July 1, 2026, December 31, 2025 and 2024, the exchange rate was Ps17.4693,
Ps17.9528 and Ps20.5103
per US dollar, respectively.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the balance of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Mexican peso or the US dollar is not significant.
Sensitivity analysis
The following table shows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 the sensitivity in profit or loss related to the financial assets and liabilities of Grupo TMM and the
exchange rate; US dollar / Mexican peso considering that the rest of the conditions remain the same, assumes a change of +/- 5%
for 2025 and +/- 3% for 2024 in the peso / US dollar exchange rate.
This percentage was determined based on the volatility of the average exchange rate market over the past 12 months. The sensitivity analysis is based on financial instruments in
foreign currency held by Grupo TMM on the reporting date.
If the Mexican peso had strengthened or weakened against the US dollar by 5%
for 2025 and 3% for 2024, this would have had the following impact on the monetary position:
2025
2024
5%

The exposure to exchange rates varies during each year, depending on the volume of overseas operations or in foreign currency; however, the above analysis is considered
representative of Grupo TMM’s exposure to currency risk.
Interest rate risks
Grupo TMM’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates is related principally to the long-term debt obligations at a variable interest rate.
Grupo TMM mainly contracts its loans in instruments with fixed rates; however, when the conditions of a variable rate loan are favorable, they are contracted under those
conditions. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has $45.3 and $1,013.6 million pesos of debt contracted on fixed and variable rates, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the debt contracted on fixed and variable rates was $126.9 and $350.1 million pesos,
respectively.
Sensitivity analysis
The following table illustrates the sensitivity in profit or loss at December 31, 2025 and 2024 to a reasonably possible change in the interest rates of +/-1%, these changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on the current market conditions.
The calculations are based on a variance in the average market interest rate for each period and the financial instruments on the reporting date that are sensitive to variances
in the interest rates. The rest of the variables remain constant.

The impact shown in the above sensitivity is considered the same both in the results of profit or loss and in stockholders’ equity.
Credit risk
Credit risk is managed on a group basis, based on the credit risk management policies and procedures of Company based on each operating segment.
Credit risk with respect to cash balances maintained in banks and sight deposits is managed through diversification of bank deposits that are only made with high credited
financial institutions. For other receivables, other than trade accounts receivable and contractual assets, the balances are considered immaterial and whose risk of default is low.
The Company continuously monitors the creditworthiness of customers, based on its experience and customer profiles defined by Management. The Company’s policy is to deal only
with creditworthy counterparties. Credit terms range between 30 and 90 days (except Pemex that handles credit terms of 180 days after billing date). Credit terms negotiated with customers are subject to an internal approval process that
considers the experience and profile of the customer. Current credit risk is managed by a periodic review of the accounts receivable aging analysis, together with credit limits per customer.
For certain types of services and customers, it is required that they pay in advance the amount corresponding to the services, thus mitigating the credit
risk.
Trade receivable from customers comprise a large number of clients across various industries and geographic areas in Mexico, except for the maritime operation
segment where the number of clients is limited, which facilitates the monitoring of the risk conditions of those trade receivables.
Grupo TMM does not maintain any guarantee on its trade accounts receivable or any other financial assets.
Trade receivables
Grupo TMM applies the IFRS 9 simplified model of recognizing lifetime expected credit losses (ECL) for all trade receivables as these items do not have a significant financing
component.
In measuring the expected credit losses, the trade receivables have been assessed on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics. They have been grouped
based on the days past due and also according to the geographical location of customers.
Expected credit loss rates are based on the sales payment profile as well as the corresponding historical credit losses during the last periods. Historical rates are adjusted to
reflect current and future macroeconomic factors that affect the customer’s ability to liquidate the unpaid balance.
Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Failure to make payments within 180 days from the invoice date and failure to engage with the Company on alternative payment arrangement amongst other is considered indicators of no reasonable
expectation of recovery. However, industry and client’s practices could generate balances with more than 180 days of aging, for which conclusion is that those balances will be collected.
Pursuant to the foregoing, the expected credit loss for trade accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was determined as follows:

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk consists of Grupo TMM being unable to meet its obligations. The Company manages its liquidity needs by monitoring scheduled debt service payments for short- and
long-term financial liabilities, as well as forecasting cash inflows and outflows in the business at least on a weekly basis. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, 53% and 74%, respectively, of Grupo TMM’s financial
liabilities are due within the next 12 months.
The Group’s objective is to maintain cash and short-term investments to meet its liquidity requirements for periods of at least 30 days. This objective was met for the reported periods. Financing for long-term liquidity requirements is additionally secured through an adequate amount of
available lines of credit and through the ability to sell non-strategic assets.
As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the financial liabilities and other liabilities of Grupo TMM had contractual maturities (including interest payments as applicable) and were

Capital management policies and procedures
Grupo TMM’s capital management goal is to ensure the capacity of Grupo TMM to continue as a going concern and to provide its stockholders with an appropriate return on their
investment. The Company monitors capital based on the carrying value plus its financial debt.
The Company sets its capital amount proportionate to its overall financing structure, meaning, the capital and financial liabilities that are not loans. Grupo TMM manages the
capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in the economic conditions and the associated risks of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, Grupo TMM may adjust the amount of capital
reimbursements to stockholders, or issue new shares or sell assets to reduce its financial debt.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the amounts managed as capital are as follows:

On August 7, 2007, Transportación Marítima
Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. (‘TMM’), subsidiary of Grupo TMM, filed a claim for arbitration against Refined Product Services (“RPS”) for$50
thousand US dollars, (approximately $1,026) or various expenses incurred by TMM due to the delay of the re-delivery of the tanker vessel
Palenque.
On October 19, 2007, RPS filed a countersuit
for $3.0 million US dollars (approximately $61,531)
for alleged faults and lack of maintenance involving the tanker vessel Palenque, and also consequential damages for having lost a contract while the vessel was being repaired. During the year 2024 and 2025 and up to the date of authorization of the
consolidated financial statements, no significant events occurred in the process.
The Company’s Management and its legal
advisors consider the position against this countersuit is strong, as there are sufficient elements and arguments for defense, also the amount claimed by RPS would appear to be excessive and for non-supported issues.
b)
Tax contingencies
i.
The Company has a tax
contingency related to various tax credits for alleged omissions in withholding income tax and VAT from foreign residents for the fiscal year 2014 determined by tax authorities. On March 25, 2025, the ruling was notified in which the
request for amparo by Transportación Marítima Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. (TMM), Grupo TMM’s subsidiary, was denied; on April 14, 2025, the Request for Review was filed against the ruling issued in the trial where the protection and
safeguarding of the Union’s Justice is sought. Subsequently, TMM filed various legal appeals in accordance with its rights. Finally, on July 3, 2025, TMM filed a complaint against the previous resolutions issued by the C. Sixteenth
District Judge in Administrative Matters in Mexico City, through which the filed amparo lawsuit was dismissed. By ruling issued in the regular session held on February 6, 2026, the Twentieth Collegiate Court in Administrative Matters
of the First Circuit resolved the complaint filed as unfounded, so the matter was considered closed. The contingency arising from this case corresponds to the amount of the determined tax credit and the associated accessories.
During 2017 and 2016, Grupo TMM filed Motions for Annulment with the Federal Court of Administrative Justice against various decisions of the Tax Administration Service (SAT for its acronym in Spanish), on the rejection of tax
deductions (year 2007), and the termination of the consolidation regime (year 2013). As of the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements, these lawsuits remain ongoing. The Company and its legal advisors have
considered, as part of the defense against the authority’s rulings, challenging them through a direct amparo lawsuit, whose arguments must be sent for review and resolution to the Collegiate Circuit Court in Administrative Matters of
the First Circuit. Additionally, if the issue of the constitutionality of general regulations persists, the Company may file a review appeal in a direct amparo against the ruling of that court, which must be sent to the Supreme Court
of Justice of the Nation for study and resolution on the merits. Management, together with its legal advisors, continues with the legal defense strategy and considers that there are legal grounds to obtain a favorable resolution for
the Group’s interests, which would mean that Grupo TMM doesn’t make any tax payments related to those SAT resolutions.
