4Q broadly in line, positive outlook for 2017E

Aegean Airlines has reported a 4Q16 net loss of EUR 19m vs. our forecast of a net loss of EUR 13m. The miss is relatively small, in view of it being a low-importance quarter for Aegean. In addition, the qualitative data (improving load factors, milder yield pressure, solid international passenger traffic growth) are supportive for the 2017E outlook. In our forecasts, we already assume an improving 2017E, with growth of c.20% yoy in EBITDAR. However, in view of the positive outlook, there are currently upside risks for our numbers.
