Research Alert: CFRA Lifts Opinion On Shares Of Southwest Airlines Co To Hold From Sell

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Oil prices have retreated ~15% from May's $108 high. We upgrade LUV to Hold from Sell, raise our price target by $10 to $43, and lift our 2027 EPS estimate to $4.52 from $3.65 while keeping 2026's at $2.79. Our target reflects 9.5x our 2027 EPS (from 9x our 2026 EPS). Although oil remains a key variable, we have grown more optimistic on LUV-specific drivers, including traction on its new pricing model (Q1 unit revenue +11.2% Y/Y), which could boost revenue growth in the high teens alongside higher airfare. A shift away from open seating could improve LUV's ability to capture higher-yielding corporate and premium travel, an area that has benefited peers. Similar to peers, LUV noted Q1 demand trends across geographies and customer segments remain strong, supporting our view that accelerating revenue can offset fuel headwinds. Our Hold rating and high-single-digit multiple reflect that the new model still needs to prove out on profitability and oil volatility remains a risk.

US Consumers' Air Travel Intentions Largely Steady Despite High Fuel Cost, UBS Survey Shows

US consumers' air travel intentions for leisure purposes leveled off in March year over year despite higher fuel costs and geopolitical concerns, UBS Securities said in a note sent Tuesday.The brokerage conducted a survey of 6,877 consumers across the world, including 1,754 in the US, from March to early April.Crude oil prices soared after the US and Israel launched attacks against Iran at the end of February, disrupting shipments through the crucial Strait of Hormuz.Plans to undertake leisure travel in the US over the next 12 months slipped to 82.8% from 83.1% a year ago, but remained above March 2024 levels, the survey results showed. Business travel intentions decreased on an annual basis, but rose from two years ago."The key takeaway was that intentions among US consumers to undertake leisure and business travel over the next 12 months remain high," UBS analysts, including Atul Maheswari, wrote in the note. "The survey results show that significantly more US consumers expect to increase spend in the next 12 months than spend less on their trips -- a trend that's consistent with last year's survey."There was an annual moderation in those citing plans to travel more with large US carriers Delta Air Lines (DAL), United Airlines (UAL), American Airlines (AAL), and Southwest Airlines (LUV), according to UBS. However, the number of consumers willing to travel about the same with each of the four airlines increased.Most consumers consider price as the most important factor when purchasing airline tickets for leisure travel, while about half of the survey respondents look at destination and airline brand, according to UBS."Airline brand was meaningfully more important than (three) years ago as was seat class. This should bode well for the larger airlines with a stronger loyalty/premium offering," Maheswari said, referring to Delta, United, American, and Alaska Air (ALK).Price: $68.35, Change: $-1.89, Percent Change: -2.69%

Research Alert: Luv: Strong Rasm Growth Offsets Fuel Headwinds; Q2 Outlook Cautious

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:LUV reported Q1 adjusted EPS of $0.45 vs. a loss of $0.13 a year ago but below the $0.48 consensus estimate. Total revenue of $7.25B (+12.8%) was below the $7.28B consensus, driven by passenger revenue growth of 13.4% and revenue per available seat mile (RASM) expansion of 11.2%. The company showed cost discipline with lower maintenance expenses (-11.3%) and other operating costs (-1.9%), helping offset fuel headwinds that added $164M in costs. The Q2 EPS guidance midpoint of $0.50 came in below the $0.62 consensus, with management declining to update full-year 2026 EPS guidance from the prior $4.00 target. We think pricing vs. passenger volume bears monitoring as LUV transitions from its 54-year open-seating policy to assigned seating. In our view, cost discipline could help achieve current EPS consensus, but meeting prior guidance may prove difficult. The company maintains balance sheet flexibility with $3.3B in cash, $1.5B credit facility, and $16.5B in unencumbered assets during this transformation.

The Nasdaq Composite and the S&P 500 notched new peaks on Friday after Iran announced a temporary reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, sending oil prices tumbling.The Nasdaq rose 1.5% to 24,468.5, while the S&P 500 added 1.2% to 7,126.1, notching record-high closing levels for the third straight day.

That was a key sticking point in peace negotiations between the US and Iran."Araghchi's statement represents a significant and unexpected diplomatic opening," Artem Abramov, deputy head of analysis at Rystad Energy, said in a note e-mailed to. "The Strait of Hormuz has been the single most consequential variable in global oil markets since the conflict escalated, and any credible signal that the chokepoint may reopen, even temporarily, is a market-moving development of the first order."Trump welcomed the reopening of the strait, though he said the US naval blockade of Iran's ports will continue until "our transaction with Iran is 100% complete.""The news that Iran will allow traffic to resume through the Strait of Hormuz could be an important turning point and the catalyst for upgrades to our economic forecasts, but not immediately," Oxford Economics said in a note.

US Airlines Head Into Q1 Earnings With Demand Trends, M&A Chatter in Focus, UBS Says

United Airlines (UAL), Alaska Air Group (ALK), American Airlines (AAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV) are heading into next week's Q1 earnings with investor attention centered on demand trends, unit-revenue guidance and renewed consolidation speculation, UBS Securities said Tuesday in a report.Delta Air Lines' (DAL) strong demand trends and low-teens Q2 revenue outlook set a high bar for the sector, with investors watching whether peers can sustain similar momentum or show signs of normalization, the report said.For United Airlines, UBS expects mid-teens Q2 revenue growth and above-consensus earnings, supported by improving year-over-year comparisons at its Newark, New Jersey, hub, strong premium demand and scenario-based full-year guidance.American Airlines is expected to post mid-teens Q2 revenue growth with a modest earnings loss, with potential upside from corporate share recapture but a likely wider guidance range or suspension of full-year targets, the report said.Southwest Airlines is expected to deliver high-teens unit-revenue growth and above-consensus earnings, with a suspension of full-year guidance anticipated as the carrier continues to advance its transformation strategy, UBS said.Results are due for Alaska Air on Monday, United on Tuesday, Southwest on April 22 and American on April 23.United shares fell 2.5% in Wednesday trading, Alaska Air eased 0.2%, American rose 1.1%, Southwest gained 1.2%, and Delta advanced 1%.Price: $94.79, Change: $-2.38, Percent Change: -2.45%

However, persistent inflation amid higher oil prices could call for rate increases."The conflicting viewpoints point to a period of policy stability," Sal Guatieri, senior economist at BMO Capital Markets, said in a report. "The Fed is on hold until it has greater clarity on the direction of the Iran war and its effects on the economy and inflation."Airline and cruise operator stocks jumped, with Carnival (CCL) up 11%, among the top gainers on the S&P 500.
