She's the strawberry girl, banana-split lady!

And nobody knows who the hell she is.

Good to have new CEO announced and good luck Christine. I think it will take the annual results before the share price moves much and IMHO it is likely to be at least this time next year if not indeed mid 2018 before her impact is likely to have much impact on the share price Tempted to go in again if 3rd quarter's results give some encouragement to do so.

Nothing moves the share price here.So unloved.I will be out as soon as in profit. If and when though.

Two small pieces of good news - let's hope for a better year in 2017.

New CEO and using Heathrow :)

[palwing13] 20/12/2016 07:35

On y va......?

Continued drift downwards with no news of CEO doesn't inspire confidence ahead of 3rd quarter update which I assume will be towards end of January.

[dahhad] 12/12/2016 11:29

netcurtains: that's one way to describe the price!! Very tempted to go in again at these levels but the company has disappointed so often, I think I will wait until next set of figures and the new CEO. I fear more bad news will come out when a new broom goes in!

[netcurtains] 07/12/2016 19:42

cool price!
Thanks market makers!

[kumala] 07/12/2016 19:36

All pretty zzzzz er at moment...K

[dahhad] 30/11/2016 08:23

Need some +ve news to get anywhere near 60p never mind £1 but here's hoping!

[europa79] 29/11/2016 20:12

I'll be happy with a price of 60p to sell come New Year......even happier of course if no-one does!!!

[netcurtains] 29/11/2016 13:21

I have a target of about £1.20 over a 12 month period, for this share. Its an ideal punt to put in one the Christmas Share Competitions (for most likely to double over the coming year).... This should hold true providing FlyBe does not reach 60p to sell by January 1st!!!

[anony mous] 18/11/2016 15:13

A triple upgrade from todays price give £1.29.I will go with europa's target. Thank you.

[europa79] 18/11/2016 13:54

Yeah, it's just short of a 'triple upgrade'. :)

[sandoval] 18/11/2016 13:01

If found would be interesting to compare to this target of 100p from HSBC 2 weeks before brexit. 1 day after brexit target adjusted to 30p by same broker.

Numis have kept their target of 100p

Flybe gets double upgrade as HSBC switches tack

From the end of this financial year, Flybe should be able to take control of its capacity plans.

Flybe PLC (LON:FLYB) is poised to have more control over its destiny than at any time since it floated, according to HSBC which has given the airline a double upgrade.

From the end of this financial year, Flybe should be able to take control of its capacity plans and reduce its fleet to 65 aircraft by 2020 from 80 now.

“By culling weak routes, working carefully to manage competition with low cost carriers, we think profitability can be improved substantially.”

Flybe should serve regional routes competing against ground transport and offering high frequency service on thin, business travel focused routes where mainstream low cost carriers cannot justify the frequency.

Meanwhile recent interims were miles better than the broker expected with an underlying profit of £15.9mln.

Fuel and currency hedging also provided a pleasant surprise said the broker at more than double the protection we previously anticipated.

The rating rises to buy from while the target price goes up to 55p from 20p.

Shares were up 3% at 44.8p.

Nice to see HSBC change their minds. Anyone got the HSBC note? Last one seemed far too pessimistic on costs with their assumptions not lining up with what the company were telling us re fuel hedges & agreed pay deals. Wonder if HSBC have re-assessed. They were more aggressive than me on passenger yield etc. but our estimates of costs trajectory were quite different. 55p price target still seems low but these things are always upgraded in steps.

[nigelmoat] 18/11/2016 12:14

HSBC upgrades Flybe to a buy and lifts price target to 55p from 20p -explains rise this morning.

[sandoval] 18/11/2016 10:05

afaik Flybe APD bill is north of £70 million , close to current mkt cap. Would make a material difference .
