Singapore Airlines (SIA) group reported FY26 core earnings (Fig.1) of SGD1,155mn (-

34% y-y), accounting for 127% of our full-year FY26F forecast and 105% of the

Bloomberg consensus estimate, which we deem to be a beat. The decline was primarily Research Analysts

attributable to losses from associated companies (total SGD829mn loss) – mostly Singapore Transport/Logistics

attributable to a full-year of Air India losses (unlisted) (vs only estimate of four months in Ahmad Maghfur Usman - NSM

FY25). The group began equity accounting for Air India's financial performance from ahmad.maghfurusman@nomura.com

higher by 1% y-y. Cargo revenue declined slightly by 2% y-y due to lower yields (-3.6% y-

(+4.7% y-y).

Briefing highlights

• Middle East crisis: Unlike other carriers that cut capacity, SIA maintained flights

(except to Jeddah, which was postponed) and captured displaced traffic, particularly

on long-haul Europe routes.
