Delta Air Lines (DAL) is "best-positioned" to withstand a potential earnings recession in the US airline industry this year, Deutsche Bank said Thursday in a note.
"Although domestic markets are facing challenges and visibility on international and premium travel are murky beyond late spring/early summer, we still expect Delta to generate healthy profits for 2025," the bank said.
Deutsche Bank acknowledged its 2025 earnings outlook of $4.25 a share for Delta is among the lowest on Wall Street and trails the Bloomberg consensus mean of $5.83.
"We believe the downside risk to the 2025 outlook is significant in light of the uncertainties around tariffs and trade," the bank said.
On Thursday, Delta said it is "not reaffirming full-year 2025 financial guidance," citing stalled growth amid economic uncertainty tied to global trade.
Shares of Delta fell 8.4% in recent Thursday trading.
