We have upgraded our rating for Aegean Airlines to BUY (from Hold), following the recent dip in the share price. We adjust our 12M price target (PT) to EUR 11.3/share, only slightly higher than the former level (EUR 11.0/share), driven mainly by incorporating a marginally more constructive outlook on fares next year. This reflects comments made by several airlines, which have reported in recent weeks, which are pointing towards a more constructive outlook for pricing, as persistent shortages of ...

Aegean's results were broadly in line with our estimates. The company flew 4% less ASK in 3Q24 compared to last summer. With a flat RASK, the revenue mirrored the ASK decline – slightly better than the 1% RASK contraction we had pencilled in. The ex-fuel CASK increased by 14%, driven by a combination of personnel costs and inefficiencies connected to groundings. This pushed the EBIT 27% lower yoy. Our 2024E forecast (where we pencil in the EBIT at EUR 205m) seems reasonable, in view of the 9M24 ...

WOOD Flash – EMEA airlines: 3Q24 traffic, margin descent underway
The combination of continued capacity recovery and a weak macro backdrop is putting pressure on passenger yields. The more favourable fuel prices (and, for Turkish Airlines (THYAO), higher cargo yields) only partially compensate for cost pressures caused by the GTF engine issue, higher personnel costs, and general cost inflation. This means that margins are beginning to compress from the often very high levels we have seen in the past two-to-three years. Among the four airlines that we cover, we...

OPAP: licence to yield (reinitiating coverage with a BUY)
We reinitiate coverage of OPAP, with a BUY rating and a price target (PT) of EUR 18.9/share, which implies 18% upside from the current levels. Safe never looked so good, in our view. OPAP is delivering results cementing its steady growth and low gearing qualities, coupled with a generous shareholder remuneration policy and an attractive valuation.

JUMBO | First thoughts: Retaining its mojo
Robust H1 with adj. EBITDA and net profit +5% yoy; FY24 guidance out of sync with H1 performance – Jumbo has announced quite solid H1 results in line with our estimates, delivering 5.5% adj. EBITDA growth on +8% sales increase (the latter was pre-announced). Underpinning the robust performance was the surprising resilience of gross margins (flat yoy at 55.3%), as Jumbo continued to navigate supply chain challenges efficiently, which was only partly diluted by opex inflation (opex +13% yoy, due t...
