Most recently on easyJet (EZJ), we noted agreement in principle on the key financial terms of a recommended cash offer of 690p per share but, with the gap to that from a 614p share price and having already de-risked a bit and still some potential for rival interest, to continue to hold the rest. Now another “possible offer” announcement.
Earlier this week we noted on easyJet (EZJ) that its ‘latest rejection sees possible offer taken public’, with Castlelake, L.P. “announcing this third proposal to enable easyJet shareholders to consider its merits and provide their views… to the easyJet board… following the rejection of three proposals by the easyJet board, and given its unwillingness to engage meaningfully”. That third proposal was at 625p per share and, with we considering the above suggested a higher price still likely possible on meaningful engagement, we concluded with the shares up to just above 520p to Hold. What about now “Possible Offer” updates and the shares up to 584p to sell?
easyJet (EZJ) has announced that it considers a 625p per share possible offer proposal from Castlelake, L.P. as “highly opportunistic, delivered against the backdrop of easyJet’s temporarily depressed share price, and still fundamentally undervalues easyJet and its prospects”. What about that with shares in easyJet up to just above 520p?
US investment firm Castlelake, L.P. has issued announcements including that it “notes the recent speculation regarding easyJet” (EZJ) and “confirms that it is in the early stages of considering a possible offer for the company”. What about this with shares in easyJet up to 430p in response?
EasyJet (EZJ) has issued a trading update, stating that for its half-year ended 31st March 2026 “the airline delivering a load factor of 90%, up two percentage points year on year. easyJet holidays saw continued strong demand, with customer numbers increasing by 22%” but also noting some recent financial impacts from the Middle East conflict.
easyJet (EZJ) has announced results for its year ended 30th September 2025 headlined that it “reports 9% earnings growth in FY25, with easyJet holidays target achieved ahead of schedule and upgraded to £450m PBT by FY30”. So how does the performance and outlook compare to the valuation from a 485p share price?
Shares in easyJet (EZJ) have currently slipped just below 500p and the following is why we consider that there is share price improvement potential following also a trading update for its third quarter ended 30th June 2025 and which was headlined including “Q3 headline profit before tax £286 million, an improvement of £50 million YoY… Positive outlook for FY”.
The share price of EasyJet (EZJ) tends to be quite volatile and buying towards the bottom of the typical trading range gives a good chance of a decent return, especially as we move into the part of the year when business should start to pick up.
