Why some analysts aren't very happy about Singapore Airlines' 75% profit jump
Earnings soared to $158m.
According to CIMB, SIA’s 2QFY14 core net profit of S$158m was a 75% improvement yoy, while its operating profit rose 23% yoy.
However, this jump was less than we had expected, as passenger yields of the parent airline continued to drag.
Here's more from CIMB:
2QFY14 yields slumped 3.5% yoy, and fell for the seventh straight quarter on a yoy basis, although the profitability of the mainline carrier rose 15% yoy.
Conversely, while SilkAir’s yields increased 2% yoy, its profitability slid 58%. Softness in cargo markets persisted into 2QFY14, although the fall in yields of 2% yoy was better than what had been recorded over the last five quarters.
