On July 2, 2025, Raymond James increased its price target on Ryanair Holdings plc (NASDAQ:RYAAY) from $60 to $70, maintaining a ‘Strong Buy’ rating. The update is driven by Q4 2024 results, expectations of a strong summer demand and lower fuel costs, and the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar. The update also reflects the company’s $873 million share repurchase program completed in July 2025 and the acquisition of 30 spare engines agreed in June 2025.

Meanwhile, speaking in Warsaw, CEO Michael O’Leary expects Ryanair Holdings plc (NASDAQ:RYAAY) will see a 100% growth in its after-tax profits in Q1, which he attributes to strong summer bookings and a rebound in ticket prices. Furthermore, he expects the company to largely recover its last year’s 7% drop in average fares as travel demand, especially to Southern Europe, remains strong in spite of record heat across the continent. According to analysts’ consensus estimates, the company is expected to report revenue of around $5 billion, which would be a significant increase compared to $2.58 billion in Q4 2024.
