DO & CO AG Q4 Performance and Outlook

DO & CO AG is anticipated to release strong Q4 results on June 11. Sales are projected to increase by 11% year-on-year to €583 million. Airline Catering, representing approximately 80% of the group, is expected to grow by 13% to €503 million, supported by increased volume at the Istanbul hub and new contracts with companies like ANA and Air Canada.

International Event Catering is predicted to rise by 7% year-on-year to €37 million, driven by an earlier F1 season start. The smallest division, Restaurants, Lounges & Hotels, should remain relatively stable, with a slight 1% increase to €43 million. Group EBIT is expected to improve by 11% year-on-year to €50 million, maintaining a stable margin of 8.5%.

Demand from key partner Turkish Airlines remains robust, despite Middle East tensions, with 7.2 million passengers in March. The outlook for FY26/27 is optimistic, with anticipated recovery from regional disruptions and consistent airline operations.
