Spring Airlines stock (ISIN CNE100001V45) was last at CNY 40.76 on the Shanghai Stock Exchange on September 30, 2026, up 2.31 percent from the previous close. The move came as August traffic data and the airline's half-year performance pointed to strong passenger demand but weaker profitability.

Traffic grows into the autumn

According to Jin10 on September 15, 2026, Spring Airlines carried 3.3628 million passengers in August, 5.15 percent more than in the same month of 2025. Its load factor reached 94.79 percent, 0.92 percentage points above the prior-year level, while cumulative passenger traffic through August rose 11.53 percent to 23.9628 million.

The operating figures give the stock a clear demand signal, but capacity growth alone does not settle the earnings question. The key issue for the next report is whether high seat occupancy can offset fuel and other operating costs.

Profit falls despite higher revenue

CT News reported on September 10, 2026, that Spring Airlines generated CNY 12.336 billion in first-half revenue, up 19.72 percent year over year. Net profit attributable to shareholders reached CNY 1.042 billion, down 10.81 percent from the comparable period.

The contrast is material for investors: revenue expanded by CNY 2.032 billion on the prior-year figure implied by the reported growth rate, while profit moved lower. The second quarter was particularly weak, with net income of CNY 59.4 million in the latest standardized quarterly figures for the period ended June 30, 2026.

Consensus target stays above price

MarketScreener lists a Buy consensus from 14 analysts, with an average target price of CNY 56.54 and a displayed spread of 39.81 percent on its September 29, 2026 overview. The consensus figure is materially above Spring Airlines stock's CNY 40.76 price on September 30, but the half-year profit decline remains the central counter-factor.

MarketScreener also lists October 29, 2026, as the scheduled Q3 2026 earnings release date. That report should show whether August's 94.79 percent load factor translated into improved margins after the summer travel period.

Spring Airlines stock holds a wide yearly range

Spring Airlines stock was last at CNY 40.76 on September 30, 2026, with an intraday range of CNY 39.75 to CNY 40.86. Its 52-week range was CNY 38.18 to CNY 60.48, while market capitalization stood at CNY 39.9 billion and trading volume reached 4,607,868 shares on that date.
