Turkish Airlines reported a net loss of TL38mn (vs. TL184mn net loss in 4Q17) in 4Q18, worse than market consensus of TL162mn net profit and BGC estimate of TL235mn net profit… The company reported an EBITDA of TL1,571mn (+49% YoY) in 4Q18, in line with market consensus of TL1,636mn and our expectation of TL1,546mn. The deviation of the bottom-line from our expectations was due to a net loss of TL622mn from the sale of financial investments, while the company had recorded a gain of TL634mn on this line in 3Q18. The company posted an EBITDAR of TL2,366mn (+48% YoY) in 4Q18. On a cumulative basis, net profit and EBITDA reached TL4,045mn (+533YoY) and TL11,400mn (+72% YoY) in 2018, respectively. We expect the earnings announcement to have neutral impact on the stock performance.
