Frontier Airlines Stock Falls On Reduced Consumer Confidence Impact
Frontier Airlines revised its Q1 2025 guidance, indicating a loss of $0.20 to $0.24 per share, and pulled its full-year guidance due to reduced consumer confidence. Ultra-low-cost carriers like Frontier face increased costs from pilot shortages, inflation, and higher maintenance costs, eroding their competitive edge against mainline carriers. Despite some upside potential, the high-cost basis and lower demand led me to assign a hold rating for ULCC stock with a $6.50 price target.
