Singapore Airlines' Profit Likely to Cool -- Market Talk

Dow Jones08-06

0225 GMT - Singapore Airlines' profit should cool over FY 2025-2026 but will likely remain at decent levels, outperforming prepandemic numbers, analysts at UOB Kay Hian say in a note. They cut SIA's FY 2025-FY 2027 earnings forecast by 8.7%-9.6%. Some key risks weighing on the airline are a fragile macroeconomic environment dampening air travel and air cargo demand, and growing competition, UOB KH analysts say. They maintain a hold rating on SIA and trim the target price to S$6.28 from S$6.43. SIA's dividend yield could push investors to hold but UOB KH believes that "given the expected earnings moderation, SIA may lack near-term re-rating catalysts." SIA shares were recently at S$5.95.
