TUI Travel Plc Analyst Notes
On May 13, 2014, TUI Travel Plc (TUI) released its financial report for H1 FY 2014 (period ended March 31, 2014), showing better-than-expected bottom line results despite the later timing of Easter this year and the capacity reduction in France. The Company's underlying operating loss during the period stood at £298 million, compared to £289 million in the comparable year-ago period. TUI managed to beat the Morgan Stanley's analyst expectations of a loss of £305 million for the period. Hit by the Easter timing, which fell in April this year, the Company said its revenue during the six months ended March 2014 fell 3.8% YoY to £5.2 billion. Last year the Easter holidays fell in March, helping the Company's performance in H1 FY 2013. Looking ahead, the Company expects to deliver FY 2014 underlying operating profit growth of between 7% to 10% on a constant currency basis.
