Wizz Air: bracing for winter, waiting for spring (stays BUY)

We maintain our negative view on the coming winter, however, and have adjusted our loss estimates upwards, as fast growth by Ryanair in several of Wizz Air’s key markets collides with the company’s own capacity acceleration. This could put pressure on yields and exacerbate losses. While things may get worse before they start getting better, we believe that upside risks prevail from the curr...

Aegean Airlines: strong CF, but waiting for an earnings inflection poi...

We have revised our forecasts for Aegean Airlines, following the 1H25 results, maintaining our HOLD rating and nudging our 12M PT upwards to EUR 14.5. Our forecast changes for 3Q-4Q25E are minor, reflecting stronger-than-expected capacity growth. Management remains upbeat on the late-summer demand, and we have raised our 2H25E earnings slightly vs. our prior estimates. We continue to highlight Aegean’s strong cash generation, which could improve in FY26E, as PDPs turn into inflows. With a core a...
