AirAsia BUY Target Price RM4.34 by OSK Research

OSK Research Sdn Bhd has upgraded its fair value on AirAsia Bhd to RM4.34 from RM3.89 while maintaining its 'buy' call.

In a research note today, OSK said AirAsia's revenue passenger kilometres (RPK) and passenger carriage for first half of financial year 2011 (1HFY11) remained consistently strong, growing by 16 per cent and 23.2 per cent year-to-date.

"Considering that 1H is typically the weaker half of the year, AirAsia's numbers nevertheless remained consistently strong despite the fuel surcharge having taking full effect in May," it said.

It said AirAsia's second quarter earnings were expected to rise further quarter-on-quarter on the back of improving yields due to the fuel surcharge, loan factor and RPK.
