-- 瑞銀證券週一在一份報告中指出，孩之寶（Hasbro，股票代碼：HAS）第一季的業績將主要取決於旗下威世智（Wizards of the Coast）部門的強勁需求，以及該公司如何將樹脂和運費上漲的影響納入損益表。 瑞銀表示，威世智的需求強勁主要得益於《忍者龜》（Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles）和《史崔克斯海文的秘密》（Secrets of Strixhaven）在第一季強勁的預售表現。 瑞銀指出，鑑於樹脂價格上漲以及運費和分銷成本的增加，預計孩之寶將更加關注利潤率。瑞銀也表示，樹脂成本每上漲10%，預計每股盈餘將增加約0.08美元；而進出境運費每上漲10%，預計每股盈餘將增加約0.09美元。 瑞銀補充道，即使面臨輕微的供應鏈中斷，預計孩之寶仍將維持其2026年的營收預期。 瑞銀維持買進評級，目標價為110美元。

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:ALK reported Q1 adjusted EPS of -$1.68, widening from -$0.77 in the prior year and missing the -$1.55 consensus, while revenue of $3.3B (+5.2%) met expectations. Unit revenue rose 3.5%, led by strong corporate travel (+19%) and premium segments, but unit costs increased 6.3% from airport, maintenance, and pilot training pressures. The Hawaiian integration and Alaska Accelerate strategy are delivering results ahead of schedule, with Seattle-Tokyo achieving profitability and 90%+ load factors within a year of launch. Management suspended full-year guidance due to fuel cost volatility, though ALK maintains confidence in its long-term trajectory. Looking ahead, Q2 fuel costs are expected to average $4.50 per gallon, representing a 51% sequential increase and $600M headwind equivalent to $3.60/share. We believe the $10 2027 EPS target will be increasingly challenging given current fuel dynamics and guidance suspension, but operational excellence during integration demonstrates management's execution capabilities.
