Jaina Mistry’s rating is based on several key considerations regarding TUI AG’s current performance and future outlook. The company showed a strong first quarter with significant revenue and EBIT growth, which indicates that the company’s guidance is achievable. However, there is a note of caution as the guidance suggests a slowdown in EBIT growth for the remainder of the year, highlighting potential challenges in maintaining momentum.
Despite the favorable valuation metrics, with TUI AG trading at a lower PE ratio compared to historical averages, there are risks associated with medium-term reinvestment across its core business units. Additionally, while there are positive trends in the hotels and cruises segments, there have been mixed results in the Markets & Airlines division, particularly with moderated bookings in Germany and negative trends in the UK. These mixed signals contribute to a cautious outlook, supporting the Hold rating given by Jaina Mistry.
