MARKET REPORT: Analysts at Bank of America clip EasyJet's wings and wipe more than £370m off value

Profits warning ahoy! That was the message from Bank of America when assessing EasyJet yesterday – a call that wiped more than £370m off the airline’s value.
EasyJet shed 6.44 per cent, or 94p, while British Airways owner IAG also fell, losing 3.47 per cent.
In a searing analysis of flying conditions, analysts at BoA said the ‘lazy consensus’ around EasyJet’s performance ‘heads blindly’ into a ‘cliff’.

Expectations that the company will constantly upgrade its forecasts will be ‘shattered’, they warned.

‘The share price has already shown signs of wilting under Europe’s sweltering summer airline overcapacity problem,’ said analyst Mark Manduca, in a note the bank was desperate not to be seen by anyone but its clients.

But he added there was more turbulence to come, with the issue of too many planes in the crowded skies only getting worse as the year goes on.
The introduction of allocated seating – a move that wooed business passengers and saw EasyJet overtake rival Ryanair – has already paid its rewards, he added.
All this will lead to the company issuing a profits warning over its 2015 earnings, he predicted.

He currently expects pre-tax profits to fall by £170m in 2015, compared to market expectations that they will rise by £80m – a forecast he said was ‘egregious’. He said ‘the last remaining bulls will likely be shaken out of the shares’ when lower profits come into view.

At the same time he downgraded the share price by an eye-watering 36 per cent – from 1800p to 1150p. Shares closed at 1365p. Despite the caution, shareholders who boarded at the same time as chief executive Carolyn McCall – who incidentally celebrates the fourth anniversary of her tenure today – will not have been disappointed with the service over the period. Shares have soared to the tune of 260 per cent in four years.

Although the note didn’t mention British Airways operator IAG, shares fell sharply, finishing 13.3p worse off at 370.5p. Manduca and his team also upgraded prospects for Ryanair, which is listed in Dublin.
Michael O’Leary’s airline is ‘due some near-term relief’ after a string of profits warnings he said – but added that it would still suffer in the long run from a lack of exposure to ‘key European business airports’.

"There is quite a long list of worries, but we believe that the share
price reaction has been overdone and expect a relatively reassuring Q3 update."

Q3 Interim Management Statement

A. HIGHLIGHTS:

easyJet performance in the quarter

· Revenue per seat grew by 2.7% at constant currency or by 1.7% on a reported basis to £62.47 per seat despite a less benign capacity environment and a significant increase in easyJet capacity at Gatwick. The revenue performance was driven by the movement of Easter into the third quarter of the financial year and continued digital, brand and revenue initiatives.

· easyJet's capacity grew 6.8% in the quarter, primarily driven by a 16% increase in capacity at Gatwick mainly due to the purchase of the Flybe slots and 7% growth at Rome Fiumicino.

· Total revenue grew by 8.6% to £1,240 million, passengers carried increased by 9.4% to 17.9 million, and the load factor increased by 2.2 percentage points to 90.4%.

· Cost per seat excluding fuel increased by 1.0% at constant currency or decreased by 1.3% on a reported basis, better than guidance issued in May. The increase, at constant currency, was driven by increased airport charges, primarily in Italy and planned year on year cost increases in maintenance and lease costs.

· Cash and money market deposits were £1,162 million and net cash was £603 million as at 30 June 2014 demonstrating easyJet's continued strong balance sheet.

so typically sp gets bashed again!

What did you expect ? it's happened to several recently .

par for the course i agree, but still dull :-)

I've bought a couple that dropped on good results for a bounce ,usually works .

It is a crazy market.

Bought a few more.

I hope they will fly!

Gone long . So long as some crazy bar steward doesn't shoot anything else down should be ok .
