UBS analyst Thomas Wadewitz maintains $American Airlines (AAL.US)$ with a hold rating, and adjusts the target price from $16 to $19.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 54.2% and a total average return of 7.5% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $American Airlines (AAL.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
The new exclusive credit card arrangement with Citi is expected to yield significant long-term benefits for American Airlines. This partnership is likely to bolster accelerated loyalty growth. Previously, having multiple card providers might have prevented American and its bank partners from fully leveraging their relationship as effectively as other major airlines with exclusive bank allies. This dynamic is anticipated to shift starting in 2026, leading to enhanced remuneration growth.
A positive outlook is perceived for North American airlines by 2025, backed by improved yields and moderated capacity. Both American and Southwest are cited for their optimistic revenue forecasts for Q4, signaling beneficial yield enhancements as capacity expansion slows. The sector holds significant upside potential, with notable optimism expressed towards companies like Delta, United, and Alaska Air.
