Read MoreHide Full Article
Ryanair Holdings (RYAAY - Free Report) reported second-quarter fiscal 2022 (ended Sep 30, 2021) earnings of $1.16 per share, which fell short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.80. In the year-ago period, the company incurred adjusted loss of 12 cents per share due to coronavirus-led weakness in air-travel demand.
Quarterly revenues of $2,104 million also fell shy of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2,338.8 million. The top line increased significantly year over year with improvement in traffic, thanks to the rollout of the EU Digital Covid Certificates, which facilitate travel with the European Union during the pandemic. Easing of coronavirus-led travel restrictions also drove traffic.
Ryanair’s profit for the quarter came in at €225 million against the year-ago quarter’s loss of €225.5 million. Traffic soared 86% year over year to 31 million. Load factor in the period was consistently above 80%.
