WizzAir - Not as bad as it seems

Wizz Air reported its first quarter results for FY2019 which came below consensus. Solid passenger growth contributed to strong, but weaker-than-expected revenues which were led to an increase of 17.9% y-o-y to EUR553 million. It was mostly driven by passenger ticket revenues that rose by 24.5% on a yearly basis to EUR 330 million. Ancillary revenues were also up by 9.5% to EUR 223million, but also have to highlight that new cabin hand luggage policy which is effect from 29 October 2017 still influenced this result.
