American Airlines sees 29.5% upside potential

Watch: Next earnings release will clarify crude oil hedging impact on 2026 EPS and test if downside risk from fuel costs has further scope.

Full analysis

61% of 28 analysts maintain a Buy rating on AAL with a median 12-month price target implying over 29.5% upside. TD Cowen lowered its price target from $17 to $15 but kept a Buy rating. Wall Street expects Q1 2026 GAAP EPS to be -$0.41 on $13.75 billion revenue; Q4 2025 EPS was $0.15 on $14 billion revenue. Insiders are selling, with a strong sell cluster from 3 insiders.

High analyst conviction on AAL's growth potential contrasts with Q1 earnings weakness and insider selling, highlighting a valuation opportunity if fuel volatility and debt risks ease.
