Latest Update Fitch
Following the initial assignment of a TUI‑rating in February 2025, Fitch has affirmed that BB (stable outlook) rating.
The rating reflects TUI’s leading market position and strong brand recognition in European tourism, along with a balanced capital and liquidity structure. Fitch highlights the diversification benefits of TUI’s vertically integrated business model across hotels, cruises, airlines and tour operations. At the same time, Fitch notes that efficiency initiatives are expected to support gradual margin improvement.
The Stable Outlook reflects expectations of continued EBITDA growth and solid free cash flow generation.
Latest Update Moody's
The rating action acknowledges TUI’s FY2025 positive results and Moody’s confident view about further earnings growth.
The change in outlook to positive also considers TUI's new capital allocation framework as well balanced, including a net leverage target below 0.5x over the medium term, improved liquidity and lower leverage, supported by enhanced operating cash flow. The positive outlook also reflects Moody’s expectation that profitability will slightly improve over the next 12-18 months, driven by cost savings in Markets + Airline and trading momentum in Holiday Experiences.
