Is Sun Country Airlines Holdings Still Cheap?
Sun Country Airlines Holdings is currently expensive based on our price multiple model, where we look at the company’s price-to-earnings ratio in comparison to the industry average.

We find that Sun Country Airlines Holdings’s ratio of 12.35x is above its peer average of 9.66x, which suggests the stock is trading at a higher price compared to the Airlines industry. If you like the stock, you may want to keep an eye out for a potential price decline in the future.

This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for how much the stock moves relative to the rest of the market.

What This Means For You
Are you a shareholder? SNCY’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading above industry price multiples. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe SNCY should trade below its current price, selling high and buying it back up again when its price falls towards the industry PE ratio can be profitable. But before you make this decision, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.
Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on SNCY for some time, now may not be the best time to enter into the stock. The price has surpassed its industry peers, which means it is likely that there is no more upside from mispricing.
