Cautious consumers disappoint EU airline industry

We revisited our model following Wizz Air’s fiscal 2025 Q1 earnings results.
We cut our 12m TP to 25 GBP/sh from 33 GBP/sh, implying a 69% upside
potential. Lowered TP reflects the softer than expected fare environment
and the downgraded net profit guidance of the Company. The management
now sees this in the range of between EUR 350-450mn, but our forecast is
slightly below the lower end of the range at EUR 344mn, down by 37%
compared to our previous forecast. Going forward, we are very cautious
over the mid-term profitability as consumers’ behaviour changed
significantly as they have started to pile up savings instead of consumption.
