Turnaround is distant, but shares are overly punished

We have significantly reduced our forecasts following Wizz Air’s early June financial report, which fell short of expectations. Moreover, the company published guidance for next year that also came in below expectations for key performance indicators. The stock’s poor performance comes as no surprise, as a growing number of investors are questioning the credibility and preparedness of the management. We have lowered our target price from 22.1 GBP to 17.0 GBP, while maintaining our Buy recommenda...

Wizz Air: slower growth could help medium-term margins (stays BUY)

Following the recalibration of Wizz Air’s strategy, we have tried to capture some of the changes ahead, in our revised figures. The pivot towards slower growth and refocusing on CEE could support margins over the medium term. The near-term dynamics remain challenging, however. Wizz is still likely to grow 15-20% this winter, which, given seasonally-low demand, may pressure margins. The accelerated return of current engine option (ceo) aircraft to the lessors over the next two years could also el...

Wizz Air’s 1QF26 figures were a slight miss to our forecasts, and a more material one to consensus. The emphasis, this time around, seems mainly on the significant planned refocusing of the business. On top of the recently-announced exit from Abu Dhabi, Wizz Air plans to slow its expansion materially, and is planning to reduce its capacity (ASK) growth rate to around 10-12% in the medium term, from roughly mid-2026E onwards. It also plans to refocus the business towards CEE, unpark all of the gr...

ODDO : Sailing through hard times

We are resuming coverage of Romanian banks with an Outperform rating and a TP of RON 32.3 on Banca Transilvania (TLV) and a Neutral stance with a TP of RON 20.3 on BRD. We believe that current market prices largely factor in the downside risks of the upcoming fiscal consolidation package even beyond 2026. Despite BRD's increasing appetite for growth, we favour TLV due to its effective growth through its M&A strategy, higher long-term ROE potential and more attractive valuation metrics.

WOOD Flash - EMEA Airlines: 2Q25 traffic - Easter good, conflict bad

Calendar 2Q25 started off well for the sector, benefitting from the Easter effect and low fuel prices, but many airlines experienced disruptions to their networks later in the quarter, following Israel’s attack on Iran. Demand for flying seems broadly resilient so far, with fares helped by limited capacity growth in Europe, due to supply constraints. As we move into the peak season, Air Traffic Control (ATC) remains a bottleneck, especially as parts of the European network remain closed to traff...
