(Reuters) -JetBlue Airways is planning a host of new cost-control measures including reducing flights and parking some of its jets, as weak demand for travel hurts margins, according to an internal memo seen by Reuters. The shares of the carrier fell nearly 5% in premarket trading. The airline is also assessing the size and scope of its leadership team and has identified ways to combine or restructure some roles, JetBlue CEO Joanna Geraghty said in the memo to employees. The cost-control measures were first reported by CNBC.

Cost cuts supported earnings after revenue fell 5.58%, though a second-quarter loss showed demand remained weak.

(Reuters) -Canadian auto parts supplier Magna International (NYSE:MGA) raised annual sales forecast and topped second-quarter estimates on Friday, benefiting from its cost-cutting measures. The company had said in May it would take steps such as restructuring and reduced capital and engineering spending to cushion the hit from sweeping tariffs. U.S. President Donald Trump’s levies have pressured auto companies across the supply chain, forcing suppliers to absorb more expenses or renegotiate with automakers. Peers Aptiv (NYSE:APTV) and BorgWarner (NYSE:BWA) also raised their annual forecasts on Thursday, banking on stronger auto parts demand. Magna expects 2025 sales to be between $40.4 billion and $42.0 billion, compared with its prior forecast of $40.0 billion and $41.6 billion. On an adjusted basis, it earned $1.44 per share for the quarter through June, above analysts’ estimate of $1.14 per share, according to data compiled by LSEG. Total quarterly sales fell about 3% to $10.63 billion, while the estimate was $10.23 billion. With valuations skyrocketing in 2024, many investors are uneasy putting more money into stocks.

Investing.com -- Bank of America upgraded Microchip Technology (NASDAQ:MCHP) to Neutral from Underperform on Friday. The bank cited early signs of a sales recovery, aggressive cost-cutting measures, and renewed strategic focus under the leadership of returning CEO Steve Sanghi. “The return of well-regarded prior CEO Steve Sanghi has greatly enhanced the level of restructuring urgency and customer/product focus at Microchip,” BofA analysts wrote in a note. They pointed to an improving outlook in industrial markets such as aerospace and defense, which are key end markets for the company. Following a better-than-expected earnings report, BofA raised its price objective for Microchip to $56 from $44, noting that the upgrade comes despite the company still facing a “very deep” downturn. “MCHP’s 50-60% peak-trough correction remains the deepest in the industry,” the firm noted, and recovering its prior earnings power without a strong macro rebound is “a risky assumption in the current macro environment.” Still, BofA is optimistic about the company’s earnings potential. “Even a modest sales rebound could translate into outsized earnings leverage,” analysts wrote. They forecast a potential return to normalized $3 per share earnings by fiscal 2028, supported by gross margins expanding from ~53% to the low-60% range and improved operating efficiencies. BofA now expects pro forma EPS of $0.96/$2.11/$2.73 for calendar years 2025 through 2027. Cost-saving actions are said to be central to the turnaround story. “Mgmt. is highly focused on turnaround efforts,” BofA said, citing the closure of Microchip’s Tempe fab, a 10% reduction in workforce, and a reoriented go-to-market strategy. While risks remain, BofA sees earnings inflection and operational discipline as meaningful offsets to these challenges.
