ComfortDelGro shares have been under pressure after reporting lower-than-expected 1QFY2026 results, partly due to softer ride businesses in UK attributed to the lower number of airport transfers because of the fighting in the Middle East.
In addition, the company is seen to face higher fuel costs ahead also because of the situation.
