UBS assumed coverage of United Airlines (UAL) with a Buy rating with a price target of $142, up from $128. The market is not fully appreciating United’s ability to capitalize on the tailwinds from premium and loyalty growth, which should enable the airline to generate strong RASM growth over the next few years despite mid single digit available seat miles, the analyst tells investors in a research note. UBS sees the potential for 80-100 basis points of pre-tax margin expansion in each of FY26 and FY27.
