  • Raymond James analyst Savanthi Syth lowered the price target on Azul SA (NYSE:AZUL) to $12 (an upside of 83%) from $22 while maintaining the Outperform rating on the shares.
  • The analyst updated earnings estimates to reflect a higher fuel price forecast, including elevated refining margins, and a weaker BRL relative to the USD, partly offset by strong demand and yields.
  • Syth believes the current share price offers an attractive risk-reward point, supported by Azul's differentiated network, unique cargo opportunity, and potential to meaningfully increase its presence at the profitable Sao Paulo-Congonhas (CGH) airport.
  • CGH is expanding the number of slots by ~30% over a ~2 year period. While Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes S.A. (NYSE:GOL) and LATAM Airlines Group S.A. (OTC:LTMAQ) are likely to continue to dominate the airport, Azul is likely to double its exposure, the analyst noted.
  • Syth mentioned that Azul believes it could generate more profits on a per-route basis than GOL or LATAM due to its smaller-gauge aircraft being better suited for most of the markets served.
  • Syth reiterated the Market Perform rating on GOL and saw better risk-reward at AZUL.
  • Recently, Barclays analyst Pablo Monsivais downgraded Azul to Underweight from Equal-Weight and lowered the price target to $7 (an upside of 6.7%), from $17.
  • Price Action: AZUL shares are trading higher by 2.90% at $6.56 on the last check Thursday.
  • 雷蒙德·詹姆斯分析师萨万西·赛斯将Azul SA(纽约证券交易所代码:AZUL)的目标股价从22美元下调至12美元(上涨83%),同时维持该股的跑赢大盘评级。
  • 该分析师更新了收益预期,以反映更高的燃油价格预测,包括炼油利润率的提高,以及巴西雷亚尔兑美元的疲软,但部分被强劲的需求和收益率所抵消。
  • 赛斯认为,目前的股价提供了一个有吸引力的风险回报点,这得益于Azul的差异化网络、独特的货运机会以及显著增加其在盈利的圣保罗-孔戈尼亚斯(CGH)机场的影响力的潜力。
  • CGH将在大约2年的时间内将老虎机数量增加约30%。分析师指出,尽管Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes S.A.(纽约证券交易所代码:GOL)和拉美航空集团有限公司(场外交易代码:LTMAQ)可能会继续在机场占据主导地位,但Azul的风险敞口可能会翻一番。
  • 赛斯提到,Azul认为,由于其较小的轨距飞机更适合所服务的大多数市场,因此按每条航线计算,它可以产生比GOL或LATAM更多的利润。
  • 赛斯重申了对GOL的市场表现评级,并认为AZUL的风险回报有所改善。
  • 最近,巴克莱分析师巴勃罗·蒙西韦斯将Azul的评级从同等权重下调至减持,并将目标股价从17美元下调至7美元(上涨6.7%)。
  • 价格走势:周四上一次支票,AZUL股价上涨2.90%,至6.56美元。
