DMG & Partners kept a buy rating on Singapore Airlines (SIA) (SIAL.SI) and said it was encouraged by an improvement in passenger traffic.

“We think its valuation has hit bottom. SIA is backed by a strong balance sheet, which would enable it to whether any downturn going forward,” the broker said and retained its price target of $12.47.

SIA’s shares were down 0.55% at $10.94. Out of 23 analysts tracking the stock, 13 have a hold rating, five have a buy or strong buy and five have a sell or strong sell.

SIA said the operating environment remained challenging and passenger yields were likely to come under pressure.
