TUI (ISIN DE000TUAG505) tightened its fiscal 2026 underlying operating profit guidance to EUR 1.20 billion to EUR 1.30 billion on September 22, 2026, leaving TUI stock 29.60 percent below its EUR 9.56 yearly high. The range was narrowed from EUR 1.10 billion to EUR 1.40 billion, while the market price stood at EUR 6.73 at Lang & Schwarz on October 9, 2026.

Three milestones shape the outlook

On December 10, 2025, TUI published fiscal 2025 results with revenue of EUR 24.179 billion, according to TUI Group. The figure remains historical context for the current guidance.

On August 12, 2026, TUI reported third-quarter fiscal 2026 underlying EBIT of EUR 234.6 million and reaffirmed its fiscal 2026 outlook, according to EQS News. On September 22, 2026, TUI tightened the range to EUR 1.20 billion to EUR 1.30 billion, according to TUI Group.

What does the guidance mean for bookings?

The latest operating data show a split picture. Summer 2026 booked revenue was 5.00 percent below the previous year, while winter 2026/27 booked revenue was 7.00 percent lower. The most recent four-week summer comparison improved to 2.00 percent above the previous year, according to TUI Group. That improvement helps explain the narrower profit range, but the comparison also shows why revenue guidance remains suspended.

TUI's cruise expansion adds another measurable growth lever. The group said its fleet had reached 19 vessels, while available passenger cruise days were 12.00 percent higher for the fourth quarter and 17.00 percent higher for the first half of fiscal 2027. Average daily rates were 2.00 percent higher in both periods.

Results date sets the next marker

TUI will publish fiscal 2026 full-year results on December 9, 2026, with an analyst presentation on the same date, according to EQS News. The publication will test whether stronger recent booking momentum can offset the weaker seasonal comparisons.
