CATHAY PAC AIR (00293.HK) is predicted to excel market consensus in 2025 net profit, on the ride of one-time settlement gains from HAECO with unit revenue and unit costs coming in broadly in-line with BofA Securities' estimation.

Cathay aims to achieve a 10% passenger capacity growth by 2026 and notes a solid start for its cargo business in 2M26. However, it acknowledges the risk posed by surging fuel costs, with approximately 30% of its Brent oil consumption for 1Q26 hedged.
