AEGEAN AIRLINES Recommendation BUY Target Price €8.20 Stay on Board Prior Target Price €8.00 GREECE | EQUITY RESEARCH | AIRLINES March 27, 2017 COMPANY UPDATE AEGEAN AIRLINES Recommendation BUY Target Price €8.20 Stay on board Prior Target Price €8.00 Positive finish to a mixed year – Aegean reported a quite resilient Q4, managing to Closing Price (24/03) €6.87 sustain EBITDAR at the same level as in Q4’15 on the back of a substantial Market Cap (mn) €490.6 improvement in load factors (+5.9pps in Q4). The traffic increase in Q4 (+19%) exceeded the capacity expansion (+10%) and was only partly diluted by fare Expected Return 19.4% discounting (yields -12%) leading to a 5% increase in revenues. Overall, FY16 was a Expected Dividend 6.9% year of swings, and although the c€26m drop in Aegean’s EBITDAR in H1 was not fully Expected Total Return 26.2% recovered in H2 (€15m higher yoy), the finish to the year was stronger than anticipated while the solid pre-booking pattern for summer 2017 instills us with AEGEAN Share Price confidence that FY17 will be a positive year. 9.50 Positive FY17 outlook: capacity discipline and demand resilience – The 2017 outlook 9.00 is looking more benign as Ryanair shifts its focus to other markets and Aegean 8.50 rationalizes capacity (-5%). Trends in the first two months have been positive with demand growth (traffic in Greek airports +7% yoy) outstripping supply (flights -1%). 8.00 With pre-booking patterns for the summer program providing additional confidence 7.50 in Q2 trading, we believe load factors will be strong in FY17, while the pricing 7.00 required to stimulate demand will be less pronounced (yields -3%) than in 2016 (yields -8%). On the cost side, we do see some room for a reduction in distribution 6.50 costs as Aegean shifts away from the GDS platforms. We thus incorporate further – 6.00 albeit of small magnitude – cost efficiencies in FY17e (CASK ex-fuel -1%). As far as fuel 5.50 is concerned, besides having hedged its FY17 needs (75% at c$490/mt), Aegean has Mar-16 Jul-16 Nov-16 Mar-17 also hedged a portion of its FY18 fuel needs (40% at c$520/mt), fact that increases visibility of 2018 numbers. Our future fuel forecasts are in sync with the forward curve. Overall, following minor changes to our forecasts, we expect Aegean to deliver Stock Data c2% growth in EBITDAR translating into net profit of €48m, €16m higher yoy. Reuters RIC AGNr.AT Compelling dividend story – Given our forecast for EBITDA of c€84m-97m in the next Bloomberg Code AEGN GA 3 years (vs. €119m at the peak of 2014) and relatively limited capex, we forecast cumulative FCF >€180m, namely >35% of the current market cap. Taking into account 52 Week High (adj.) €9.06 mgt’s past guidance for a dividend payout ratio of 60-70%, we anticipate DPS of 52 Week Low (adj.) €5.84 another €1.5 cumulatively in the next 3 years. This chimes in well with the consistency that Aegean has shown in rewarding shareholders (€2.8 distributed in the Abs. performance (1m) 3.8% last 4 years) and renders Aegean one of the highest-yielding stocks in our universe. Abs. performance (YTD) 8.5% Valuation – Although the shares have bounced back from the recent lows following Number of shares 71.4mn the short-term disappointment from the Q2 results, we still believe the valuation is Avg Trading Volume (qrt) 0.5k quite compelling as Aegean trades at substantial EV/EBITDAR discount to EMEA Est. 3yr EPS CAGR 18.6% carriers.

As a result, substantial fare discounting was required to stimulate demand, putting severe pressure on yields in Q2 (-13% for Aegean). Nonetheless, as we had argued in our detailed report in September 2016, trends showed signs of improvement in the summer assisted by improving inbound leisure traffic and capacity discipline (the number of flights increased by just 3.4% in H2’16). Although the c€26m drop in Aegean’s EBITDAR in H1 was not fully recovered in H2 (€15m higher yoy), the finish to the year was stronger than feared after the disappointing Q2 while the solid pre- booking pattern for summer 2017 instills us with confidence that FY17 will be a positive year. Capacity discipline in 2017 and For 2017, the competitive dynamics look relatively benign. Although supply is set to grow in relatively resilient demand are the mid single-digits, Aegean’s main competitor Ryanair has announced it plans to scale back omen for the bottoming of its capacity deployed in Greece (Summer 2017 -2%, Winter 2017 -22% in AIA). Aegean itself yields… has guided for a 5% reduction of its own capacity (in terms of seats) as a result of the reallocation of international seats from regional airports to AIA and fewer seats deployed in domestic routes. According to the Association of Greek Tourism Enterprises (SETE), the growth in demand is likely to outstrip the growth in supply thus leading to an improvement in load factors. In our view, the aforementioned discipline in capacity along with the improving inbound leisure trends are likely to help load factors retain their recent upward trajectory (+3pps in H2’16) on reasonable fare discounting, so long as there is no major disruption to demand. Overall, we incorporate yields -3% in 2017 following -8% in 2016, driving a 3.3pps increase in load factors leading to a stabilization of revenues. … underpinning a recovery of On the cost side, with unit costs at just €6c, Aegean’s cost base is almost as efficient as that of margins in FY17e low cost carriers (LCCs). Looking ahead, we do see some room for a reduction in distribution costs as Aegean shifts away from the GDS platforms utilizing alternative systems and/or increasing direct selling. We thus incorporate further – albeit of small magnitude – cost efficiencies in FY17e (CASK ex-fuel -1%), leading to EBITDAR of €212m, +2% yoy on 50bps higher margins. As

  • University of the Aegean Shipping, Trade and Transport Department
    University of the Aegean Shipping, Trade and Transport Department Georgia Tsitsou “High-speed rail and air transport competition: The case of Athens – Thessaloniki” 16/10/2019 Research Dissertation for the Master Program “Shipping, Trade and Transport Department – ΝΑΜΕ” Author: Georgia Tsitsou Supervisor: Seraphim Kapros Chios 1 Abstract This research dissertation analyses the potential of the high speed train to compete with the airline market. The context proposed is hypothetical, given that the high speed train alternative is not yet available on the route subject to research. In order to model passenger preferences relative to the characteristics of the alternatives, experimental design techniques are applied, which allow for the design of the market that will be evaluated by current airline passengers. Based upon the information collected, modal choices are analysed, estimating a logit model with both alternatives. Demand modelling allows us to predict the substitutability level of the high speed train in comparison with the plane for the city pair Athens – Thessaloniki and in reverse, for different types of traveler. The results obtained confirm that the high speed train will have an important impact on the airline market. The simulation of different policies related to service variables stresses the fact that this impact will mainly depend on the relation gender – price, age – time, occupancy – accuracy/ reliability and reasons for travelling – accuracy/ reliability. In contrast, in the city pair Thessaloniki – Athens, there is statistically significant correlation between gender and fewer stops or better connections and reason for travelling and price. Suggestions that were provided at the final part of the dissertation concentrate on gaining a better overview of passengers’ preference for each mode of transport and needs by conducting a respective research in train platforms.

Konstantinos Malagas1, Alexandra Fragoudaki2, Kyriakos Kourousis3, Nikitas Nikitakos1 ABSTRACT: The air transport industry in Greece has been experiencing a significant growth. However, higher education INTRODUCTION has missed so far this export opportunity. Public universities AVIATION INDUSTRY: THE GENERAL CONTEXT and technological educational institutes have very limited The aviation industry continues to grow, despite economic undergraduate offerings in the fields of aeronautical engineering and aircraft maintenance technology, respectively. These and other issues affecting economic development in many programs are offered only in the local language, practically parts of the world. The global aviation workforce counts with restricting them to the indigenous market. Postgraduate approximately 10 million people acting directly in the industry offerings are currently inexistent. This study proposes a and nearly 63 million people in support of the industry, including generic model for undergraduate and postgraduate aviation programs. This model, aligning with the world’s best practice tourism services (ATAG 2016). Aviation is very important for in aviation education, would have to be adjusted to meet the Greek economy, in terms of its influence on tourism and the Greek aviation industry. A preliminary investigation to trade. Moreover, air transportation connects geographically identify the characteristics of the model was conducted in remote areas, including the large number of islands around the Greek aviation industry, through a survey supported with in-depth interviews. The research findings suggest that it is the country.
