What the Analysts think about SSP Group
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for SSP Group stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of SSP Group stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Fourth-quarter like-for-like sales grew 4%, and SSP expects full-year revenue to rise 5% and earnings per share to increase about 18% to 14p. That points to resilient trading despite passenger disruption in some regions. (Investegate)
Continental Europe’s operating margin is expected to improve to about 3% from 2.2%, with like-for-like sales up 3% in the quarter. If the recovery plan continues to work, this region could add to profits beyond the current year. (Investegate)
SSP won a five-outlet Auckland Airport contract, adding to its presence in New Zealand and creating another route to growth through new locations. The deal combines four bespoke concepts with a new airport site for Roll’d in New Zealand. (Moodie Davitt Report)
Full-year operating profit is expected to be about £230m, below plan and down from £269.1m last year, after subdued North American passenger numbers weighed on summer trading. This shows earnings remain exposed to weaker travel demand. (AJ Bell)
Passenger disruption linked to the Middle East conflict continues to hurt APAC and EEME: regional like-for-like sales grew only 1% in the quarter, while Gulf sales fell 10%. A prolonged downturn in flights could keep pressure on those markets. (Investegate)
Free cash flow after interest is expected to be about £70m, below the previously guided £100m, while £170m of capital investment includes projects shifted into FY27. The lower cash outcome leaves less near-term headroom than the earlier outlook implied. (Investegate)
