Sixt stock: U.S. airport push puts Dallas and Boise in focus

Sixt (XTRA:SIX2) is back on investor radars after Sixt USA added new airport locations at Dallas Love Field and Boise, extending its U.S. network to 58 sites and entering Idaho.

Sixt’s latest U.S. airport additions come after a mixed period for the stock, with the share price at €72.15 and a year to date share price return of 1.91%, but a 1 year total shareholder return that declined 10.20% and a 5 year total shareholder return that fell 20.78%. This suggests recent momentum has been modest, while longer term holders have seen weaker performance.

Sixt now trades around €72 while analyst and model estimates point higher. After the recent U.S. expansion, does fair value sit closer to those targets or nearer the current market price?

Price to earnings of 11.1x for Sixt: Is it justified?

Sixt currently trades on a P/E of 11.1x, which looks comparatively low given both peer and industry benchmarks, and suggests the market is assigning a discounted earnings multiple to the stock.

The P/E ratio compares the Sixt share price to its earnings per share. For a rental and mobility services company, this is a common way investors gauge how much they are paying for each euro of current earnings and how those earnings are being valued against similar businesses.

On these numbers, Sixt is trading at what appears to be good value compared to peers and the wider European transportation sector. Its 11.1x P/E is below the European Transportation industry average of 12.1x and is also below the peer group average of 17.6x. Relative to an estimated fair P/E of 13.1x, the current valuation implies the market is pricing Sixt at a discount to a level that some models indicate it could trade at over time if sentiment aligned more closely with those earnings assumptions.

Result: Price-to-earnings of 11.1x (UNDERVALUED)

However, Sixt’s weaker 3 and 5 year total returns and exposure to cyclical travel demand could quickly challenge any thesis built purely on its current P/E discount.

Another view on Sixt using DCF

The SWS DCF model values Sixt at €82.52 per share, compared with the current €72.15 price. That is roughly a 12.6% gap, which again flags potential undervaluation. The key question is whether Sixt’s cash flows can support that higher fair value over time.
