A turbulent 2025e – We have moderately lowered our 2025 revenue forecast to €1.84bn (up 3.8% yoy) and reduced our bottom-line estimate by c2% to €139mn (+7% yoy), while maintaining both our load factor (82.5%) and EBITDA forecast (€422mn, +4% yoy). These revisions capture the two-speed nature of 2025: robust H1 pricing and meaningful FX gains offset by Q3 softness and an anticipated Q4 pullback on a demanding comp base. At the same time, Aegean continues to push significant capacity growth into ...

Pegasus has agreed to acquire Czech Airlines and its subsidiary, Smartwings, for EUR 154m (full equity). Subject to regulatory approval, the transaction could mark a new phase in Pegasus’s development as a group, with EU-domiciled airlines, offering a strategic foothold in Prague and, more broadly, across Europe. With over EUR 1.5bn in liquidity at end-September, the purchase price is manageable, while the deal provides access to an EU carrier generating around one-third of Pegasus’s revenues, a...

Passenger traffic momentum has weakened in 2025, and we do not expect it to improve significantly in 2026. Turkey’s aviation traffic trends showed 6.6% y/y growth in 10M25 (international +7%; domestic +6%), marking a slowdown from previous years (2023: +18%; 2024: +8% y/y) as the tourism sector faces headwinds from TL appreciation and geopolitics. Foreign tourist arrivals stayed flattish y/y in 10M25, marking the slowest y/y performance since the Covid rebound. Looking ahead to 2026, continued T...

The macro backdrop entering 2026E remains broadly supportive for high-dividend strategies across Emerging Europe and the frontier markets, but the opportunity set has clearly narrowed. After a year of sharp repricing across the WOOD universe, the high dividend conditions of 2024-25 have largely disappeared, as a result of many sectors rerating materially. As a result, high-dividend exposure is no longer a broad regional trade: the most compelling opportunities are now concentrated. However, the ...

Digi Communications has released its Q3/25 numbers and held an earnings call. Revenues and EBITDA grew 14.4% and 6.1% y-o-y, respectively, while the margin narrowed to 33.5% from 36.1%. The improvement was driven by RGU additions. ARPU fell across the board, except in Romania. Cash generation remained weak, driven by a draw on working capital. Capex and lease payments increased, resulting in negative FCF. Net leverage was up sequentially at 3.2x.
DIGI has reported its Q3 results today morning. While the revenue growth remained strong, supported by the continued customer base expansion on key markets, the Portugal segment and higher financial expenses weigh on net profit which almost halved compared to last year.
