Andrew Didora has given his Sell rating due to a combination of factors impacting Allegiant Travel Company. One of the main reasons is the company’s aggressive growth strategy in 2025, which is expected to put pressure on unit revenues. With half of the growth occurring during weaker shoulder periods rather than peak times, this could lead to a decrease in unit revenue, despite the potential benefits in unit cost reduction.
Additionally, Allegiant has recorded a significant impairment charge on its Sunseeker resort, which is currently being marketed for sale. The anticipated sale of the resort by the end of 2025, while reducing debt, reflects challenges in managing this asset. Furthermore, the company’s valuation, with a price objective set below the current trading price, supports the underperformance rating, as the expected financial improvements do not significantly alter the outlook for earnings per share in the coming years.
