Analyst Views: Are you pleased with Easyjet’s results?
TREVOR GREEN AVIVA INVESTORS
As shareholders in EasyJet, the final results and outlook statement provided us with further evidence that the strategy being implemented by Carolyn McCall is succeeding. She is also proving to be adept at balancing shareholder returns via a special dividend announcement along with a long term growth strategy.
GERT ZONNEVELD PANMURE GORDON
We remain optimistic about the long term prospects of this business. We are not concerned about longer term pricing pressure as there does not appear to be significant new capacity entering the short haul market. The company has a strong structural cost advantage over most of its competitors.
WYN ELLIS NUMIS
Given the uncertainty in the market recently following the cautious updates from Ryanair and Dart we believe that this update is encouraging. For 2014 trading and comps are tougher but we believe that EasyJet is continuing to make good progress.
