BGC Partners: THYAO 1Q19 – Worse

Turkish Airlines reported a net loss of TL1,253mn (vs. TL314mn net loss in 1Q18) in 1Q19, worse than market consensus of TL662mn net loss and BGC estimate of TL864mn net loss… Due to IFRS16 changes it is not easy to compare operational figures with consensus estimates as consensus figures were not taking IFRS16 impact into account. EBITDA (with positive impact of IFRS 16) came in at US$208mn in 1Q19 according to company’s calculation method, while the consensus figure for EBITDA was US$179mn excluding IFRS impact. Therefore, it seems that operational performance was slightly below expectations. Compared to our estimates, large miss on the bottom-line stems from: i) TL148mn of one-off loss from sale of fixed assets, ii) TL83mn loss from subsidiaries vs. our expectation of TL30mn net profit, iii) higher net financial expenses, iv) lower than expected unit revenues.
