DAVY VIEW

The ULCCs (ultra low-cost carriers) under our coverage will report Q2 (peak summer) results next month. Ryanair will report record profits as cashflow and growth power ahead. Meanwhile, Wizz Air is in crisis management as it attempts to reset back to its core CEE (Central, Eastern Europe) market. We expect further announcements from Ryanair on in-house engine maintenance, thus capping costs, and significant restructuring announcements from Wizz (notably on Airbus reset negotiations), likely culminating in a Capital Markets Day in February 2026.
