Rogerio Araujo has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Copa Holdings’ strong financial performance and promising future outlook. The company’s recent results were bolstered by significant one-off items, which improved their EBIT margin and net profit. Despite a slight decline in yield, Copa Holdings managed to increase its revenue per available seat mile (RASM) through a higher load factor and non-passenger revenue, demonstrating operational efficiency.
Additionally, Copa Holdings has maintained its growth targets for 2025 and introduced an optimistic outlook for 2026, with anticipated growth in available seat miles (ASM) and a controlled cost per ASM excluding fuel. The company’s valuation remains attractive, with a persistent gap compared to historical averages, and strong earnings momentum further supports the Buy rating. Furthermore, the dividend yield forecast and the slight increase in price objective reflect confidence in Copa Holdings’ continued financial health and growth potential.
According to TipRanks, Araujo is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 18.9% and a 61.90% success rate.
In another report released on November 17, TD Cowen also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $147.00 price target.
