Aeroméxico August 2026 Traffic Results
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grupo Aeroméxico S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: AERO & BMV: AERO, “Aeroméxico”) reports its August 2026 operational results. Grupo Aeroméxico’s total capacity, measured in available seat miles (ASMs), increased 2.3% year-over-year, while demand, measured in revenue passenger miles (RPMs), increased 2.9%. Aeroméxico’s August load factor was 89.7%, an increase of 0.6 p.p. compared with August 2025. During the month, Aeroméxico transported 2 million and 151 thousand passengers. Andrés Conesa, Chief Executive Officer stated: “Our August traffic results demonstrate the strength of demand across our network, as we concluded the peak summer travel season with strong domestic and international load factors despite a challenging comparison with August 2025. Forward bookings continue to reflect healthy demand trends as we move into the fall season, reinforcing our confidence in the demand outlook. As we continue to navigate an evolving operating environment with higher fuel cost than previously anticipated, we remain focused on the factors within our control: disciplined capacity deployment, network optimization, and fuel recapture initiatives, to capitalize on demand opportunities while supporting long-term profitability.” Figures may not sum to total due to rounding. The information included within this report has not been audited and does not provide information on the Company’s future performance. Aeromexico’s future performance depends on many factors and it cannot be inferred that any period’s performance or its year-over-year comparison will be an indicator of similar future performance.

4 Stocks With More Than 35% Upside to Buy After Q2 Earnings
The second-quarter 2026 earnings season has shaped up to be stronger than initially expected. According to the Aug. 12 Earnings Scorecard, 451 S&P 500 companies, representing 90.2% of the index, had reported second-quarter results, with aggregate earnings rising 41.6% year over year on 14.7% higher revenues. Moreover, 83.4% of the companies beat EPS estimates and 76.5% surpassed revenue estimates. The strength has extended beyond a single industry. Per the report, S&P 500 earnings are expected to increase 43.3% year over year in the second quarter, with 13 of the 16 Zacks sectors posting positive earnings growth.

Grupo Aeromexico Q2 Earnings Call Highlights
Interested in Grupo Aeromexico? Here are five stocks we like better. Grupo Aeromexico posted record second-quarter revenue of about $1.5 billion, with traffic up 10.5% year over year and strong premium demand helping offset a temporary June slowdown tied to World Cup travel patterns. Fuel costs were the main margin headwind, but the airline still stayed within guidance by recapturing 76% of the incremental fuel burden through pricing and revenue management; adjusted EBITDAR margin was 18%. Management said the June World Cup impact was temporary and expects a stronger second half, guiding for full-year 2026 revenue growth of 13% to 14%, operating margin of 11% to 13%, and higher EBITDA/EBIT in Q3 and Q4. Grupo Aeromexico (NYSE:AERO) reported record second-quarter revenue despite elevated jet fuel prices and a temporary domestic demand slowdown tied to World Cup travel patterns, executives said on the company’s second-quarter 2026 earnings call. Chief Executive Officer Andrés Conesa said the quarter unfolded “largely as we anticipated,” with healthy demand in April and May and softer domestic trends in June as corporate and leisure travel patterns shifted around Mexico’s national team matches. Even with that disruption, Conesa said Aeroméxico delivered record revenue for both June and the full second quarter. → The SK Hynix IPO and 2027’s AI Memory Squeeze “Revenue performance was strong, with traffic growing 10.5% year-over-year during the quarter, a period that also saw the two best sales weeks in our company’s history,” Conesa said. Chief Financial Officer Ricardo Sánchez Baker said total available seat miles increased 1.9% year-over-year, in line with company guidance. Total revenue reached approximately $1.5 billion in the second quarter, up 30% from a year earlier, while total revenue per available seat mile rose 10.5% and passenger revenue per available seat mile increased 10%. → This Dividend ETF Choice Could Shape Your Income Strategy Through 2026 Aeroméxico said high and volatile fuel prices were the main headwind during the quarter. Sánchez Baker said total operating costs increased 30%, primarily due to fuel. The company faced a fuel price headwind of approximately MXN 220 million compared with 2025, including roughly MXN 30 million of additional pressure versus assumptions included in its April guidance.

Sánchez Baker said total operating costs increased 30%, primarily due to fuel. The company faced a fuel price headwind of approximately MXN 220 million compared with 2025, including roughly MXN 30 million of additional pressure versus assumptions included in its April guidance. The company had previously expected to recover at least 50% of the incremental fuel burden through pricing and revenue management. Sánchez Baker said Aeroméxico exceeded that target, achieving a 76% fuel cost recapture rate in the quarter. → Microsoft Bets on In-House AI to Cut OpenAI and Anthropic Costs Adjusted EBITDAR totaled MXN 260 million, representing an 18% margin, while operating income reached MXN 68 million, resulting in a 5% operating margin. Both metrics were within the guidance range management provided in April. Conesa said that adjusted for the incremental fuel pressure above the company’s forecast, EBIT margins would have been at the top of the guidance range. Excluding fuel, operating expenses rose 13%, reflecting the stronger Mexican peso, wage and salary inflation and higher depreciation associated with fleet growth in 2025, Sánchez Baker said. During the question-and-answer session, Evercore ISI analyst Duane Pfennigwerth asked management to quantify the World Cup’s impact on June demand. Conesa said Aeroméxico estimated the domestic revenue loss in June at approximately MXN 24 million, excluding positive effects from charter flights. The airline operated charter flights connecting Mexico and the United States to transport several national soccer teams during the World Cup. Conesa described the overall World Cup impact on June revenue as “slightly negative,” but said demand patterns changed quickly afterward. “We see a very strong recovery of corporate traffic and leisure traffic in the domestic market already for July, and very solid numbers for August and September,” Conesa said. “We believe it was a strictly temporary effect.” Conesa also said the airline adjusted its network in advance of expected weaker corporate traffic in June, particularly around dates when Mexico’s national team played, allowing it to avoid some unprofitable flying. Aeroméxico’s premium revenue mix reached 43% in the second quarter, up one percentage point from a year earlier and 17 percentage points compared with 2019. Conesa said that was the highest level in the company’s history and reflected continued strength in its premium offering. He said customers did not “trade down” within the fare structure despite fare increases tied to higher fuel costs, which management viewed as evidence of resilient demand for premium products. The company also highlighted customer experience and loyalty initiatives. Conesa said Aeromexico Rewards reached record participation, with 39% of passengers participating in the program during the quarter, up seven percentage points year-over-year. Aeroméxico also launched a new Inbursa co-branded credit card program during the quarter. In response to a question from Morgan Stanley analyst Jen Spice, Conesa said the Inbursa credit card rollout was proceeding according to plan and that the company’s guidance reflected the transition from its prior credit card arrangement. He said half of cardholders who had received the new card so far had not previously held a co-branded Aeroméxico card. Aeroméxico also launched two long-haul routes during the quarter: Mexico City to Barcelona and Monterrey to Paris. Conesa said both were off to a strong start. He added that the company plans to increase service to Seoul from five to seven weekly frequencies as additional wide-body aircraft become available. Sánchez Baker said Aeroméxico ended the second quarter with more than MXN 1 billion in cash and total liquidity above MXN 1.2 billion, including fully undrawn MXN 200 million revolving credit facilities. The company generated approximately MXN 362 million in operating cash flow during the quarter, reduced financial debt by about MXN 70 million and ended the period with adjusted net debt below the year-earlier level. Management said cash flow generation remained strong in the first half of the year despite approximately MXN 250 million of additional fuel cost expenses. In response to webcast questions, Sánchez Baker said Aeroméxico expects net cash flow from operating activities for the year to be between MXN 800 million and MXN 1 billion, with free cash flow close to MXN 100 million. He said annual capital expenditures are expected to be around MXN 450 million, including about MXN 300 million of maintenance CapEx. Looking ahead, Aeroméxico said it expects higher EBITDA and EBIT in both the third and fourth quarters compared with the same periods in 2025. For the full year, the company projects an operating margin in the low double-digit range. For the third quarter, Sánchez Baker said Aeroméxico expects revenue between MXN 1.59 billion and MXN 1.62 billion, an adjusted EBITDAR margin in the mid-to-high 20s and an operating margin in the mid-teens. For the fourth quarter, the airline expects capacity to increase approximately 6.5% to 8% year-over-year, supported by higher aircraft utilization and expanded operations at Mexico City International Airport after authorities approved an increase in hourly operations from 44 to 46 beginning with the next IATA season. Management said Aeroméxico expects to receive about 10 additional slot pairs as its share of the increase. For full-year 2026, Aeroméxico expects ASM growth of 2% to 3%, total revenue growth of 13% to 14% versus 2025, an adjusted EBITDAR margin of 20.5% to 26.5% and an operating margin of 11% to 13%. Conesa said international demand remains strong across Europe, the United States, Central America and South America. He also said the airline is prepared to adjust capacity if fuel prices remain volatile and demand does not support higher flying levels. “We remain committed to managing capacity with discipline, investing in customer experience, and generating premium revenues,” Conesa said. Grupo Aeroméxico is the parent company of Aeroméxico, Mexico’s long-established flag carrier and commercial airline group. The company operates scheduled passenger and cargo services, with a network that connects domestic destinations across Mexico and international markets in the Americas, Europe and Asia.

Thank you, Lucero. Good morning, everyone. We appreciate you joining us today to discuss our second quarter 2026 results. The second quarter was characterized by high and volatile jet fuel prices and uncertainty regarding the impact of the World Cup on traffic, particularly in the corporate domestic market. I want to congratulate all the Aeroméxico team for their efforts and commitment that resulting in achieving financial results for the second Q, generally in line with the guidance we provided last April. Revenue performance was strong, with traffic growing 10.5% year-over-year during the quarter, a period that also saw the two best sales weeks in our company's history. We kept the discipline in non-fuel costs, mitigating the impact that a stronger exchange rate had on peso-denominated spending. Against this backdrop, the second quarter unfolded largely as we anticipated.
Demand remained healthy in April and May, supported by solid market fundamentals and strong commercial execution across our network. In June, demand moderated in the domestic market as travel patterns were temporarily affected by World Cup-related shifts. Despite this temporary change in momentum, our disciplined commercial and operational execution enabled us to deliver record revenues in both June and the second quarter, while maintaining profitability within the guidance we shared three months ago. Our ability to respond quickly to changing market conditions continues to be one of our key competitive advantages. We adjusted our network in anticipation of lower corporate traffic in June around the dates where Mexico's national team played, a strategy that proved successful and allowed us to avoid some unprofitable flying. Capacity increased 2% year-over-year during the second quarter, in line with our guidance.
Most adjustments were concentrated in the domestic market, while we continued to support growth across our international network. During the quarter, we launched two new long-haul routes, Mexico City to Barcelona and Monterrey to Paris, which are off to a strong start. We also operated dozens of charter flights connecting Mexico and the United States to transport several national soccer teams during the World Cup. Our premium customer base remains a key differentiator of our commercial strategy. During the second quarter, premium revenue mix reached 43%, up one percentage point year-over-year and 17 percentage points compared to 2019, marking the highest level in Aeroméxico's history. This performance reflects the continued strength of our premium value proposition, supported by continued investments to enhance our customer experience and build deeper relationships with our clients. It is important to highlight that this performance was achieved in a high-yield environment.
Despite fare increases driven by higher fuel costs, our customers did not trade down within the first-class structure, underscoring the resilience of demand for our premium offering. As of the end of June, we led all global full-service carriers in on-time performance, according to Cirium, positioning us in a good spot to achieve the recognition of World's Best On-Time Airline for the third consecutive year, a feat that no other airline has attained. We are also very proud of the opening of our new best-in-class lounges and check-in facilities in Mexico City. We want to recognize AICM authorities for the investments they have made to significantly improve our commercial facilities. Also in this quarter, we proudly launched our new Aeroméxico Inbursa co-branded credit card program, providing customers with enhanced benefits and further strengthening our loyalty ecosystem.
Aeromexico Rewards also continues to gain traction as an increasingly important driver of customer engagement and revenue quality. During the second quarter, a record 39% of our passengers participated in the program. This is up seven percentage points year-over-year. These initiatives, together with the quality and reliability of our operation, continue to drive higher customer satisfaction. Our NPS reached record heights during the second quarter, reinforcing the strong preference customers continue to show for our brand. Ricardo will provide a more detailed review of our financial results shortly. Before that, I would like to highlight a few key points that underscore the strength and resilience of our performance this quarter. EBIT margins stood at 5%, despite fuel costs being approximately MXN 30 million higher than the already high forecast we had at the beginning of the second quarter.
Adjusted for this additional impact, EBIT margins would have been at the top of the guidance range. We ended the second quarter with the same liquidity position we started the quarter, highlighting our ability to navigate through turbulent periods without burning cash or contracting debt. This achievement shows the resilience and the strength of our business model. Looking ahead, we are establishing new guidance for the remainder of the year. We expect higher EBITDA and EBIT for both the third and the fourth quarters compared to the same periods in 2025. Sorry. Full year 2026 EBIT margin is projected to be in the low double-digit range, a remarkable outcome considering the challenging environment we have faced this year.
Capacity is expected to recover and reach high single-digit year-over-year growth in the four Q, supported by additional wide-body flying, the recent delivery of two 787 aircraft, along with one additional aircraft expected later this year. As well as increased narrow-body flying, supported by the additional slots that will become available in Mexico City during the next winter IATA season. This expanded wide-body fleet will allow us to further strengthen our European network and increase service to Seoul from five to seven weekly frequencies, reflecting sustained demand and reinforcing our local growth strategy. The first half of the year has once again demonstrated our ability to adapt quickly without compromising our long-term strategy. Healthy demand trends, disciplined commercial execution, and a more favorable fuel environment give us confidence that the second half of 2026 will deliver solid financial performance.
We remain committed to managing capacity with discipline, investing in customer experience, and generating premium revenues. These principles have consistently differentiated Aeroméxico and continue to position us to create sustainable value for our customers, our employees, and our shareholders. With that, I will turn it over to Ricardo to discuss our financial performance in more detail. Thank you.
Thank you, Andrés, and good morning, everyone. I would like to echo Andrés' comments and congratulate the entire Aeroméxico team on their outstanding performance in a very challenging environment. Delivering operational profitability despite peak fuel price pressure is a remarkable achievement and a testament to the team's disciplined execution across service, operational, and financial KPIs. Let me now turn to our financial performance and highlight the key factors that shape our second quarter results, as well as how we are positioning the business to deliver a stronger second half of the year. Total ASMs increased 1.9% year-over-year, in line with our guidance, as we proactively adjusted capacity throughout the second quarter to align with market conditions and protect profitability. Total revenue reached approximately $1.5 billion in the second quarter, representing 30% year-over-year growth, in line with our guidance.
This performance was driven by strong demand across our network, continued growth in our premium segment, and solid pricing throughout the quarter. Although we experienced a temporary moderation in domestic demand during June due to World Cup related travel patterns, we still delivered record second quarter revenue. Total revenue per available seat mile or TRASM increased 10.5% year-over-year, primarily driven by strong international passenger revenue and the appreciation of the Mexican peso. Passenger revenue per available seat mile or TRASM also improved 10% year-over-year. Total operating costs increased by 30%, primarily driven by elevated and volatile fuel prices. During the second quarter, we faced a fuel price headwind of approximately MXN 220 million compared with 2025. This translated into roughly MXN 30 million of incremental cost pressure relative to the assumptions underlying the guidance we provided in April.
As we discussed on our April earnings call, our estimation was to recover at least 50% of this incremental fuel cost through pricing and revenue management initiatives. We exceeded that target, achieving a fuel cost recapture rate of 76%. Excluding fuel, operating expenses increased 13%, reflecting the continued strength of the Mexican peso, inflationary pressure on wages and salaries, and higher depreciation associated with fleet growth in 2025. Adjusted EBITDAR totaled MXN 260 million in the second quarter, representing a margin of 18%, while operating income reached MXN 68 million, resulting in an operating margin of 5%. Both metrics were within the guidance range we provided in April. As mentioned earlier, average fuel prices during the quarter were approximately 8% above the assumptions underlying our guidance. Had fuel prices evolved in line with those assumptions, we estimate that our operating margin would have finished at the upper end of our guided range.
Turning to the balance sheet, we ended the second quarter with a strong liquidity position, including more than MXN 1 billion in cash and total liquidity above MXN 1.2 billion, including our fully undrawn MXN 200 million revolving credit facilities. This robust liquidity position reflects our ability to navigate a challenging environment while maintaining strong cash flow generation and avoiding incremental debts. We generated approximately MXN 362 million in operating cash flow, reduced financial debt by approximately MXN 70 million, and closed the second quarter with adjusted net debt below the balance recorded on the same period of last year. These results reflect our disciplined approach to capital allocation, while preserving the financial flexibility to continue investing in the business and further strengthening our balance sheet. Heading into the second half of the year, we are entering the peak summer travel season from a position of strength.
Demand trends remain healthy, supported by solid booking activity across both our domestic and international networks. In addition, the fuel price curve, although volatile, has moderated from the elevated levels experienced during April and May, providing a more favorable cost backdrop. Looking ahead to the third quarter, we expect to deliver another quarter of solid financial performance, with absolute results broadly in line with the strong levels achieved a year-ago. Operating margins are expected to be modestly below last year's exceptionally strong levels, as higher fuel costs are largely being offset by higher revenues, resulting in a higher revenue base and, as a result, modestly lower margins. For the third quarter, we expect revenue between MXN 1.59 billion and MXN 1.62 billion, an adjusted EBITDAR margin in the mid-to-high 20s, and an operating margin in the mid-teens.
Looking further ahead to the fourth quarter, we expect to deliver our planned capacity growth through higher aircraft utilization, driving greater operating leverage and improved unit costs. Capacity is expected to increase approximately 6.5%-8% year-over-year, supported by expanded operations at Mexico City International Airport following the authorities' approval to increase hourly operations from 44 to 46, beginning with the next IATA season. For the full quarter of 2026, we expect total revenue growth of 14.5%-16.5%, an adjusted EBITDA margin of 28%-31%, and an operating margin of 15.5%-18.5%. Detailed assumptions regarding fuel prices and foreign exchange are included in the guidance section of our earnings release and in our webcast presentation.
For the full year, we expect ASM growth of 2%-3%, total revenue growth of 13%-14% versus 2025, an adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.5%-26.5%, and an operating margin of 11%-13%. Our guidance reflects current market conditions and the assumptions we believe are most reasonable today. While uncertainty remains, we are confident in our ability to execute, adapt to changing market conditions, and continue creating long-term value for our shareholders. With that, we will now open the call for questions. Thank you very much.
Thank you. If you'd like to ask a question, please press star one one. If your question has been answered and you'd like to remove yourself from the queue, please press star one one again. Our first question comes from Duane Pfennigwerth with Evercore ISI. Your line is open.
Hi, good morning. I wonder if you could expand on the World Cup impact that you saw over the balance of the quarter. Maybe what corporate revenue growth looked like in April and May versus the level you saw in June, and then, can you speak to what level of recovery you're seeing here in July and into 3Q? Any metrics you can put around June that would really isolate it to the World Cup impact.
Hi, Duane. Good morning. The impact of the World Cup on domestic revenue, we estimated for June to be around MXN 24 million. That's the revenue loss for the month. Despite this, as we mentioned in our initial remarks, we had record revenues in June. We had our best June in history, and our best second quarter in terms of revenues in history. This number does not include, we have positive effects on charters, for example, as I mentioned, that we transported several teams too, during the World Cup. Overall, I would say that it was slightly negative, the impact of the World Cup on our revenues in June. We've seen a very fast change in patterns after last week. We see a very strong recovery of corporate traffic and leisure traffic in the domestic market already for July, and very solid numbers for August and September.
We believe it was a strictly temporary effect, and we are back to where we were in April and May. We can follow up this call and give you the details for the daily corporate traffic growth for April and May versus June, but this is the story in general terms.
Okay, that's helpful. Then just again, talking about the third quarter or maybe the second half, where are you seeing the bigger relative improvement? Are you seeing a bigger turn in the domestic market, or are you seeing a bigger turn or improvement in international? Thanks for taking the questions.
International pricing reacted very fast once the conflict in the Middle East started. We were able to
Start to reflect higher jet fuel prices on yields as every other airline across the world right away in March, April. Domestic was slower. April and May didn't reflect the impact of higher jet fuel. In June, we saw better levels of pricing. Going forward, we see international demand very strong with no change. Again, that was not affected during the World Cup. Domestic traffic is expected to recover once the World Cup is behind us, and also because yields were not consistent with the level of jet fuel prices during the start of the second Q. This is, again, the story for us going forward, again, as we stressed in the initial remarks. We are projecting very strong revenue numbers for the third Q and fourth Q.
The reason behind it is when the conflict started, we had most of our second Q seats sold. We had availability for the second half. We have been able to fill the second half seats available with yields that are consistent with, again, the jet fuel prices that we saw after the conflict. We are in very good shape for the second half. Of course, we have significant numbers of seats to sell. We are not fully booked for the second half, but the demand environment has continued to hold up despite the recent decrease in the price of oil. Again, that was last week. Today, as you know, it's up again this week. We are monitoring that very closely, but we feel very confident that we will be able to achieve these targets that we put forward in the guidance.
Hi, Duane, this is Ricardo. Just to complement Andrés, another element that we think is going to be very helpful for our second half results is the ASK growth that we are planning for the fourth quarter, taking advantage of the assets that we already have now and using the operating leverage. We expect to produce additional revenue with the same assets that we have, and this will improve also profitability. We think this is also an important advantage for the last part of the year, and that advantage will also help in 2027.
Thank you.
Thank you. Our next question comes from Michael Linenberg with Deutsche Bank. Your line is open.
Yeah. Hey, good morning, everyone. Ricardo, I heard you talk about the increase in slots at Mexico City for the IATA winter season. Can you just clarify, I think you said the number of operations per hour are going to go from, is it 44 to 46, or is it 56? I'm just trying to get a sense of the increase.
Yes, correct, Mike. Hi, how are you?
Hey.
Yes, from 44 to 46 starting the next IATA season. Correct. That, Mike, means around 10 pair of slots additional to what we have today, is our share of this increase from 44 to 46, which as Ricardo mentioned, we plan to increase ASK high single digits for the fourth Q. We use these slots for the additional wide-body flying that we mentioned, plus to recover some capacity we reduced in the domestic market. That's the plan for these slots.
Wait, your slots are going from 44 to 46. You're going to get two per hour. What's the airport going? Or is that the airport?
Yeah, the capacity in the airport is going to increase from 44 to 46 per hour.
Okay.
Our share of that during the day is 10 pair of slots.
I see.
As we keep our proportion of slots, this will mean 10 additional pair of slots for the winter season.
Okay. That's helpful. Just another question. This is more on just the accounting. I know in your other revenue, it looked like that there was a bit of a bump up there. Was that a one-time or an out-of-period type gain or what drove that? Is that the new run rate for other revenue going forward? I know you talked about the new credit card, and the rollout with Visa, maybe that's showing up in that number. Thanks for taking my question.
Hi, Mike. Yes, this line item reflects, I think, the success that we are having in diversifying our revenue. Here we have revenue associated to our Aeromexico Rewards. The fact that we have been growing penetration translating into higher revenue here. We have also revenue associated to VIP lounges. We reopened our VIP lounges during the second quarter of the year. We had been remodeling them for last year, we didn't have those revenues last year. We also have in that line, the revenue associated to the charter operations that we performed during the World Cup, where we transported several national teams within Mexico and also from Mexico to the U.S. and Canada. That is reflected there. The line item also captures all the initiatives that our commercial team is doing on the retailing, airline retailing initiatives, including car rental, insurance, and vacation packages.
It's a combination of all these factors that is included there, including also the launch of the new credit card.
Okay, great. Okay, thank you.
Thanks.
Thank you. Our next question comes from Filipe Nielsen with Citi. Your line is open.
Hey. Hello, everyone. Thanks for taking my question. Just two points here. I wou ld like to understand a little bit more about the potential impact from fleet utilization in your ex-fuel costs. If you could maybe give us a sense about how is this evolving or improving as you increase capacity into the second half, and how is the level of impact in your guided margins for the period? My second point, if you could remind us how is the fuel recapture. You mentioned higher than expected recapture in second quarter. Just if you could maybe remind us the number in second quarter and explain a little bit about the recapture in third quarter and fourth quarter. Thank you.
Okay. Let me take the first part, Felipe. Good morning. Can you help us with your question again, the first question you have? For the second one on fuel recapture, we guided the market back in April that we were projecting to recapture 50% of the pressure. We ended up with 75%. For the second half, in the implicit guidance that we gave, we are projecting to recover more than the impact that we had, and that was the plan. You have already seats sold for the second Q. It was impossible to recover everything in the second Q. We expect to offset some of this 25% that we didn't recover in the second Q, the impact versus last year on the second half with the guidance that we gave on revenue. It will be more than 100%.
Still, in the projections that we show, EBITDA and EBIT, they stand in growth year-over-year of 9% and 11%, third and fourth Q. Still, if you look at the total 2026 versus 2025, we will be slightly below 2025. Again, very good numbers. Again, that reflects the huge impact that fuel had on the industry. Can you please help us on, you know, to repeat the first question?
Yes. Just wanted to understand, on your ex-fuel costs implied in your guidance, how does fleet utilization, like the lower fleet utilization plays out in the whole equation? You're expanding capacity into the fourth quarter. You have maybe lower utilization now. How this should evolve and impact your ex-fuel costs implied in your guidance?
Yes. Thank you for the repeat. This is Ricardo. Yes. As we mentioned, we have these operating leverage advantages or opportunities. Our P&L already reflects the ownership cost of these aircraft that we are not really flying as intensively as we could. As we fly them more, ownership costs are the same, we are producing additional revenue. We are making additional use of our crews. We are not really necessarily hiring for the fourth Q. We would be hiring for growth in 2027, not necessarily for Q. We have also advantages on that. In terms of the fixed cost structure, as we fly more these aircraft and we produce revenue associated with them, we have these high margin growth opportunities that we see for the fourth quarter and for 2027.
To complement what Ricardo just mentioned, this operational leverage is very significant. It will not only allow us, again, to improve margins on the fourth Q, but we are looking that it's more than enough probably to cover our growth needs now, which we are obviously preparing and will release later in the year for 2027 and even beyond for 2028. We stand in a very solid position with the assets needed to fund growth for the next several quarters.
Great. Thank you.
Thank you. Our next question comes from Julia Orsi with JPMorgan. Your line is open.
Yes. Hello, everyone. Good morning. Thanks for taking the time. We have two questions on our side. The first one, can you comment a bit on the competitive landscape for both domestic and international markets?
Hi, Julia. As a competitive domestic market, we've seen some rationalization of capacity in the second Q. As I mentioned before, yields in the domestic market did not reflect the fuel environment for the start of the second Q. In June, we started to see some better yield support in the domestic market. Going forward, the competitive landscape, again, will depend on the transaction that has been asked to not to be approved by the competitive authorities. We do not know where that stands. Again, our job is to continue strengthening our product and deliver the best competitive proposition from our clients, and we are in very good shape on that front.
Got it. Thank you. Can you comment a bit on the, let's say, demand elasticity across the segments? Just trying to understand if you believe that there is still room for further price increases if we continue to see volatility on the jet fuel curve in the coming months. Thank you.
Can you please repeat? Sorry, we lost you a little bit.
Yeah, of course. Can you comment a bit on how you're seeing demand elasticity across the segments? We are just trying to understand if you believe that there is still room for further price increases if we continue to see the jet fuel curve subject to volatility as it has been the case over the past couple of days. Thank you.
As I mentioned before, demand across segments, we're seeing very good support for the second half of this year. International demand continues to be strong. We are seeing very solid bookings to Europe. We've increased our capacity to Europe for the summer. As I mentioned also, with the additional shells that we will receive for the 787s, we are, again, providing daily service to Seoul. We are keeping our Monterrey-Paris flight all year long. Those are important developments. Our Barcelona-Mexico flight, it's doing very well. The U.S.A. planning has been also very solid. Same to Central and South America. Very solid demand across the board. For Mexico, again, as I mentioned, softness was felt in the leisure and corporate market for June. We are seeing very positive developments for the rest of the summer and also for the fourth Q.
We showed that we are flexible, that we proactively engage. Our plan is to expand our capacity, particularly in the fourth Q. If fuel prices continue to be volatile and we do not see that demand is there, we will not hesitate and reduce capacity again. The only thing, rest assured, that it's fully protected is our slots in Mexico City. We will cover all of our slots. We were able to reduce capacity in the domestic market because we had a waiver because of the higher jet fuel prices during the second Q. That waiver ends for winter IATA. If the waiver is not there, we will fully cover those slots. If oil prices remain high and the waiver is still there, we will obviously adjust and reduce capacity.
Got it. Thank you.
Thank you. Our next question comes from Jen Spice with Morgan Stanley. Your line is open.
Hi. Hello. Thank you for taking the questions. One, on the co-branding partner change. I know that all the loyalty members will keep their loyalty membership, but I was just wondering, it will take some time for those customers to switch to the new credit card. Just to understand, what are the implications for your financials going forward, in order to correctly model this? Secondly, I want to double-click on the prior question on the competitive environment domestically. There's very divergent capacity adjustments from your two domestic competitors. One is increasing capacity in the third quarter, the other one is reducing it. Would you say you're seeing discipline in the market? What's your view there? Thank you.
Hi, Jens. Good morning. On the co-branded credit card, again, we successfully launched the new credit card with Inbursa. It's going according to plan. We are seeing very positive trends. We obviously fully prepared for the bridge as we move from the other credit card that we had to Inbursa. Our financials are covered on that sense, and the guidance that we provided, again, reflect this transition between the two cards. One very encouraging sign that we are seeing with the Inbursa card is that half of the cardholders that have received the card to date previously did not have a co-branded credit card. That's new, and that's the idea that we are looking for. It's not only to obviously keep the customers that we had before, but also to bring new customers on board. We are seeing that.
On top of that, let me remind you that we are also working on the new contract with American Express that is due in the fourth Q of this year. On the competitive environment, my view is that these differences in capacity between the two ULCCs have to do between the different stages where they've had the impact of the engine problems in their planes. One of them had them before, so they reduced capacity. The other one probably received the news later, and that's why it's reducing capacity later. On top of that, obviously, you have the impact of jet fuel, which calls again to rationalize capacity independent of the engine issue. Obviously, we cannot answer that for them. Again, we are fully ready to compete regardless of the outcome in the competitive environment in Mexico.
Perfect. Thank you. Yeah. It seems that the higher jet fuel All else equal, seems to be a more benign environment for you guys than for your competitors. As oil comes down, according to your guidance, you will be very close to reaching pre-war profitability in the fourth quarter. Going into 2027, if, hopefully jet fuel normalizes further, will you be keeping prices at an elevated level to capture even higher margins? Because we're hearing that from the U.S. carriers. Just understanding your strategy there. Also, if you could give a bit of context on the ASA negotiation, how is this going, and if you expect to reach a deal there soon. Thank you.
We are seeing very again solid demand consistent with the level of yields today that again reflect higher jet fuel prices that we saw after the conflict. We are very positive and confident that we will be able not to reach the guidance that we have with information that we have today. If oil prices go down, obviously that will put pressure across the industry to bring prices down. It's too soon to say what will happen in 2027. We have pre-war record profitability levels with lower oil prices back then and obviously lower yields than what we have today. We are ready to react, and we have these other drivers and tailwinds for growth in margins, particularly the operational leverage that I mentioned, that will be there fully for 2027. Again, too soon to say.
Probably, as the year moves along we will provide the guidance for the rest of the year and for 2027. On the negotiations with the flight attendants, they've approved in the How it works in Mexico, they have an assembly. It was approved, you need every individual to vote in favor of any agreement. The deadline for that is the last day of July 30th. We are working constructively with the union team, and we are confident that we will have a firm agreement before the end of this month.
Oh, perfect. Okay. Appreciate the additional color. Thank you, guys.
Thank you. That's all the phone questions that we have for now.
Hi. We have a couple of questions from the webcast. One is related to costs, and if we can explain some of the cost variations and what is driving costs besides fuel. As we mentioned, costs are reflecting as a main driver, the exchange rate appreciation, the strong peso. This is driving several of the cost items. The peso appreciated 11% versus last year. There are some line items that have other particularities. For example, maintenance costs. This year in maintenance, we are having a higher maintenance cost versus last year. Part of it reflecting the additional fleet that we received last year. We received close to 25 aircraft. Another important element impacting maintenance costs this year is related to the Power by the Hour agreement of our components maintenance programs.
We have three contracts now, one for our Embraer fleet, one for our 737 fleet, and one for the 787 fleet. The three of them came up for renewal this year. This year we've had an adjustment coming from the renewal, and going forward for the next five to seven years, the Power by the Hour agreements will move in line with certain cost indexes. We have this particular renewal impact on our maintenance effects this year. I think that's the main variation on the cost items. We have also other questions related to cash flow and CapEx. Cash flow generation this year has been very strong. In fact, net cash flow from operating activities in the first six months of the year has been even higher than in 2025, despite having around MXN 250 million of impact, additional fuel cost expenses in the first six months of the year.
Going forward for the rest of the year, we continue to expect a strong net cash flow from operating activities. Having net cash flow below MXN 1 billion, between MXN 800 million and MXN 1 billion. With that and our CapEx program, what we think is that we will have a free cash flow of around close to MXN 100 million this year. Now, going into 2027, if the fuel prices are materialized and also considering the operating leverage opportunities that we have, what we would anticipate is that the net cash flow from operating activities can grow materially next year. Perhaps more than 30% if these things materialize, which will translate directly into additional free cash flow, given that CapEx programs for this year and for next year are practically similar, around the MXN 450 million range of CapEx.
Of this MXN 450 million, it's around MXN 300 million of maintenance CapEx and around MXN 150 million in other projects.
Well, thank you for joining this call. We look forward for being here again after the summer as we provide our next quarterly call. Have a great summer season, and see you soon. Thank you for joining the call.
Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect. Good day

Aeroméxico Reports Unaudited Second Quarter 2026 Results
Record 2Q Total Revenue of $1.5 billion Adjusted EBITDAR Margin of 18% Operating Margin of 5% Liquidity(3) to LTM Revenue ratio at 22% MEXICO CITY, July 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grupo Aeroméxico S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: AERO & BMV: AERO, “Aeroméxico” or the “Company”) today reported unaudited consolidated financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (“2Q26”). These results are based on information available to us as of the date of this earnings release and are not a comprehensive statement of our financial results for the period presented. The Company has used the U.S. dollar, its functional currency, as the presentation currency for its consolidated financial statements. All figures are expressed in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. Andrés Conesa, Chief Executive Officer stated: “Aeroméxico delivered solid second quarter results amid peak fuel price pressure and June demand shifts associated with the World Cup. Our results were in line with our second-quarter guidance, despite an approximately $30 million fuel headwind. We achieved two record sales weeks during the quarter, including the highest weekly sales in our history, while Premium Revenue Mix reached an all-time high, underscoring the strength of our business model and the power of our brand. Through disciplined capacity and network management, we remained focused on aligning supply with demand while protecting profitability. Even in a challenging macroeconomic environment, we ended the quarter with strong cash balances—consistent with the prior two quarters—without incurring additional financial debt. Looking ahead to the second half of the year, we expect a positive backdrop, driven by improving macroeconomic conditions and healthy demand, resulting in absolute EBITDAR levels above last year (1).” OPERATING & FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS 2Q26 Capacity, measured in available seat miles (ASMs), increased by 1.9% year-over-year.

Record 2Q Total Revenue of $1.5 billion Adjusted EBITDAR Margin of 18% Operating Margin of 5% Liquidity(3) to LTM Revenue ratio at 22% MEXICO CITY, July 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grupo Aeroméxico S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: AERO & BMV: AERO, “Aeroméxico” or the “Company”) today reported unaudited consolidated financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (“2Q26”). These results are based on information available to us as of the date of this earnings release and are not a comprehensive statement of our financial results for the period presented. The Company has used the U.S. dollar, its functional currency, as the presentation currency for its consolidated financial statements. All figures are expressed in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. Andrés Conesa, Chief Executive Officer stated: “Aeroméxico delivered solid second quarter results amid peak fuel price pressure and June demand shifts associated with the World Cup. Our results were in line with our second-quarter guidance, despite an approximately $30 million fuel headwind. We achieved two record sales weeks during the quarter, including the highest weekly sales in our history, while Premium Revenue Mix reached an all-time high, underscoring the strength of our business model and the power of our brand. Through disciplined capacity and network management, we remained focused on aligning supply with demand while protecting profitability. Even in a challenging macroeconomic environment, we ended the quarter with strong cash balances—consistent with the prior two quarters—without incurring additional financial debt. Looking ahead to the second half of the year, we expect a positive backdrop, driven by improving macroeconomic conditions and healthy demand, resulting in absolute EBITDAR levels above last year (1).” OPERATING & FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS 2Q26 Capacity, measured in available seat miles (ASMs), increased by 1.9% year-over-year. Total revenue reached $1.5 billion; a 12.6% increase compared to the same period of 2025. Total fuel expense amounted to $493.8 million, a 79.9% year-over-year increase. Adjusted EBITDAR(2) totaled $264.2 million, with a 17.9% margin. Operating income totaled $67.9 million, with a 4.6% margin. Total adjusted net debt to EBITDAR(2) ended the quarter below 2.0x. Liquidity(3) totaled $1.2 billion, equivalent to 21.8% of last-twelve-month revenues. 3Q26, 4Q26 & FULL YEAR OUTLOOK The Company’s outlook for the second half of the year underscores the resilience of its business model. The Company anticipates sustained strength in revenue generation, supported by healthy demand trends and sustained fare levels. A more favorable fuel cost environment is also expected to drive higher absolute levels of EBITDAR and EBIT in the third quarter relative to 2025. Although margins are expected to moderate in the third quarter due to higher revenues, the Company expects margin expansion in the fourth quarter, underpinned by supportive market conditions and accelerated growth from operating leverage. Fourth quarter capacity growth will be supported by increased aircraft utilization across the existing fleet, enabling the Company to capitalize on strong demand while optimizing profitability. The guidance reflects an average all-in fuel price of approximately USD $3.2 per gallon for the third quarter and USD $3.0 per gallon for the fourth quarter. It also assumes exchange rates of $17.5 Mexican pesos per U.S. dollar for the third quarter and $17.6 Mexican pesos per U.S. dollar for the fourth quarter. KEY FINANCIAL AND OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER SECOND QUARTER 2026 RESULTS Income Statement Discussion Revenue Total revenue for the second quarter of 2026 reached $1.5 billion, a 12.6% year-over-year increase, setting a new second quarter record for the Company. Revenue growth was driven by resilient demand across the network, despite the temporary moderation observed in June related to World Cup shifts. Performance was further supported by continued progress in revenue initiatives and disciplined pricing actions implemented to mitigate higher fuel costs. The strengthening of the Mexican peso also contributed favorably to revenue performance during the quarter.Our premium revenue(4) mix reached 43% of passenger-related revenue, 1 p.p. above 2Q25, reflecting sustained customer demand for premium products and ancillary services. Maintaining this revenue mix in a high-yield environment underscores the Company’s ability to capture premium customer demand and demonstrates the effectiveness of its business model. Capacity increased 1.9% year over year, in line with the Company's guidance. Consistent with its demand expectations, the Company proactively adjusted capacity throughout the quarter to align with market conditions, prioritizing profitability while maintaining a disciplined approach to network deployment. Total revenue per Available Seat Mile (“TRASM”) reached 16.0¢, marking a 10.5% year-over-year increase. The upward trend in TRASM was largely attributed to a significant increase in international passenger revenue, and the appreciation of the Mexican peso. Operating Expenses In 2Q26, total operating expenses—including fuel, labor, maintenance, passenger and aircraft services, aircraft leases, selling, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization and other expenses—reached $1.4 billion, an increase of 30.3% compared to 2Q25. The increase was primarily driven by elevated fuel costs resulting from global geopolitical events that began in late February, with market prices remaining elevated through the quarter. As a result, fuel expense increased by approximately $219.3 million year-over-year, exceeding our second-quarter guidance by approximately $30 million. Despite this additional fuel headwind, Aeromexico delivered a strong performance, with total revenue increasing by $165.6 million year-over-year. This enabled the Company to recapture approximately 75% of the incremental fuel cost. Excluding fuel, operating expenses rose 13.4% year over year. The increase primarily reflected three factors: the continued strength of the Mexican peso, inflationary pressures on wages, salaries, and benefits, and higher depreciation and amortization related to fleet growth in 2025. Fuel cost per gallon(5) increased by 79.6% compared to 2Q25, averaging 4.2 USD per gallon in 2Q26 compared to 2.3 USD per gallon in 2Q25. Fuel consumption remained stable year-over-year, while fuel burn per ASM (liters of fuel consumed per ASM) decreased by 1.7%, mainly due to a more efficient fleet mix. Cost per ASM excluding fuel (CASM-Ex) was 10.0¢ in 2Q26, representing an increase of 12.3% compared to the same period in 2025. This rise was primarily driven by an 11.3% appreciation of the Mexican peso, increased ownership costs attributable to additions to the aircraft fleet in 2025, higher labor expenses associated with inflation-related salary adjustments, and the expansion of international operations. Adjusted EBITDAR(2) and Operating Income Adjusted EBITDAR(2) amounted to $264.2 million with a 17.9% margin, in line with the Company’s guidance despite elevated fuel costs and temporary demand shifts associated with the World Cup. Total fuel expense increased by $219.3 year over year, approximately $30.0 million above the level assumed in our second-quarter guidance as market fuel prices remained higher than expected throughout the quarter. Operating income for the second quarter recorded $67.9 million, representing a 4.6% operating margin, also within the Company's guidance range. Net Financing Cost Net financing costs decreased by 6.5% compared to the same period in 2025, mainly driven by lower net foreign exchange losses. In 2Q26, foreign exchange losses decreased by $25.4 million, while financial expenses increased by $15.9 million, largely reflecting higher interest expenses from lease obligations associated with fleet expansion. Net Income (Loss) Net loss in 2Q26 totaled $57.7 million. BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW As of June 30, 2026, Aeroméxico reported cash and cash equivalents of $1.0 billion. This is an increase of $114.3 million compared to the same quarter in the previous year and $12.5 million higher than at year-end 2025. These liquidity levels were achieved through strong operating cash generation, without incurring additional financial debt. Including the $200.0 million revolving credit facility secured in 3Q24, total liquidity reached $1.2 billion. This represents a ratio of liquidity to last-twelve-month revenues of 21.8%. In 2Q26, Aeroméxico generated $362.4 million in net cash from operating activities, which allowed the Company to continue with its investment and deleveraging programs. During the second quarter, the Company repaid $17.1 million of financial debt. OPERATING FLEET During 2Q26, Grupo Aeroméxico received two Boeing 737 MAX-8 and one Boeing 787-9 aircraft. Grupo Aeroméxico’s operating fleet was comprised of 169 aircraft as of June 30, 2026, with an average age of 8.9 years.

We use words such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “expect,”, “intend,” “target,” “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “guidance,” “forecast,” “guideline,” “should” and other similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, but they are not the only way we identify such statements. Such statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. We caution you that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in this release. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to: external risks, including health threats, accidents, global instability, security breaches, terrorism and natural disasters; global geopolitical conflicts, particularly those that impact the price of jet fuel; Mexican and international economic conditions, as well as seasonality, on customer travel behavior; the current U.S.’s administration tariffs on the Company’s costs and the actions of other governmental authorities in Mexico, the U.S. and other countries; fuel market volatility; the Company’s capacity to fulfill the Company’s fixed obligations, obtain financing and/or maintain liquidity; the Company’s capacity to retain and attract key personnel and other professionals, and the Company’s labor relations with employees; the Company’s reliance on few aircraft manufacturers and other third-party providers; the Company’s aircraft utilization rate and aircraft maintenance costs; changes in landing charges, airport access fees and inadequate airport infrastructure; consumer protection restrictions; dependence on the Company’s main hub, MEX; air traffic congestion; the competitive environment in the aviation industry, including those arising from non-air travel substitutes; sanctions and compliance with anti-corruption, anti-money laundering, anti-drug trafficking and other ethical rules and standards; reliance on partnerships and alliances and challenges in entering into new ones; and other factors described in "Risk Factors" of the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on April 30,2026. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events. The Company is under no obligation and expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Annex A on Non-IFRS Financial Measures In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS, the Company discloses information regarding Adjusted EBITDAR, Adjusted EBITDAR Margin, Adjusted Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio, which are non-IFRS measures. The Company believes that these measures are useful indicators of its operational performance. These known performance measurements in the aviation industry are frequently used by investors, stock analysts and others who are interested in comparing the operational performance of companies in their industry. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAR as profit or loss for the period before income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, net finance cost, and impairment (reversal), before aircraft leasing expense, in light of the non-recurring nature of this item. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDAR to be solely a valuation metric, not a performance metric. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAR Margin as Adjusted EBITDAR divided by total revenue for the period. The Company defines Adjusted Net Debt as total loan and borrowings, including leases, minus cash and cash equivalents. The Company defines Net Leverage Ratio as Adjusted Net Debt Ratio divided by Adjusted EBITDAR for the period. All of the above-mentioned non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are: (i) they do not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, its working capital needs; (iii) they do not reflect the Company’s cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on the Company’s debt; (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and they do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; (v) they do not adjust for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income; (vi) they do not reflect the impact of all non-recurring items; and (vii) other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these measures, or similarly titled measures, differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Reconciliations of each of these historical measures, and to the extent applicable, forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure are below. No reconciliation of the forecasted amounts of Adjusted EBITDAR Margin, as incrementally adjusted, and revenue, as incrementally adjusted, for fiscal 2026 is included in this release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the corresponding IFRS measure without unreasonable efforts, due to high variability and complexity with respect to estimating certain forward-looking amounts, and we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.

Grupo Aeromexico (NYSE:AERO) reported first-quarter 2026 results that management said were broadly consistent with expectations despite fuel price volatility and temporary demand disruptions in parts of Mexico, while also outlining a more pressured second-quarter outlook tied to elevated jet fuel costs. Chief Executive Officer Andrés Conesa said the company faced “several external headwinds,” including “temporary demand disruptions in certain regions of Mexico and a significant surge in fuel prices,” but still delivered results “generally in line with our original guidance.” Conesa added that Aeroméxico’s ability to generate higher premium revenue has supported performance amid volatility. → Credo Stock Flashes Strong Bullish Signal—Upswing Just Starting Chief Commercial Officer Aaron Murray said the airline “delivered revenue above our guidance for the first quarter,” posting “total revenue of $1.34 billion, up 13.3% year-over-year.” Murray described the quarter as record-setting even with “isolated disruptions in late February in Mexico” that affected operations and transborder U.S. demand for several weeks, noting those impacts “have since recovered.” From an operational standpoint, Conesa said Aeroméxico was recognized by Cirium as “the most on-time airline in the world in the first quarter of 2026,” building on prior global rankings in 2024 and 2025. → Allbirds Exits Shoes, Pivots to AI With NewBird Rebrand Murray said strength was “particularly” evident internationally.

International revenue rose 13.6% year-over-year, led by long-haul markets in Europe, Asia, and South America. Domestic revenue increased 12.7% year-over-year, which Murray attributed to improved comparisons versus last year’s “immigration-related impact on border markets” and better performance in beach markets. Management also highlighted progress in loyalty and direct distribution. Murray said Aeroméxico Rewards hit a new record, with 38% of passengers participating in the program, “up 10 points year-over-year and 15 points since the program’s reacquisition in 2023.” He added redemption revenue grew 22% year-over-year. → Amazon Stock Up 30%: Is AMZN Still a Buy Before Earnings? Digital and merchandising initiatives also contributed to mix and channel performance, according to Murray. Direct online share reached 48%, up three points year-over-year and 23 points versus 2019, while premium revenue mix reached 42%, up one point year-over-year and 18 points versus 2019. Conesa said unit revenues rose 15% year-over-year and the airline delivered an operating margin of 11%, within the previously communicated guidance range. Chief Financial Officer Ricardo Sánchez Baker similarly reported total unit revenue (TRASM) grew 15% compared to 2025. Sánchez Baker said adjusted EBITDA totaled $336 million, representing a 25% margin and a 5% increase versus the first quarter of 2025, despite what he estimated as a $36 million adverse effect from higher fuel prices and demand disruptions in specific Mexican regions. Operating income was $142 million, also equating to an 11% margin and consistent with the prior-year period. On costs, Sánchez Baker said operating expenses increased 16% year-over-year, driven primarily by fuel and compounded by currency effects, citing a 14% appreciation of the peso that pressured the cost base. Management emphasized liquidity and leverage as key advantages entering a volatile environment. Conesa said liquidity exceeded $1.2 billion, while Sánchez Baker detailed that the quarter ended with “over $1 billion in cash” plus a $200 million undrawn revolver, totaling $1.2 billion, or 23% of last-12-months revenue. He said liquidity was $178 million higher than the same quarter last year and $21 million higher than year-end 2025, despite first-quarter seasonality. Sánchez Baker said the company generated more than $200 million in net operating cash flow and reduced financial debt by close to $10 million. Adjusted net debt to EBITDA ended the quarter at 1.7x, improving versus year-end. Fuel volatility was a central topic, with management focusing on pricing actions and capacity adjustments. Conesa said Aeroméxico’s fuel exposure is structurally lower than many peers, noting fuel represented about 21% of total revenue in 2025, and said the company would continue “fuel recovery initiatives, including targeted fare adjustments.” He also reiterated that approximately 70% of revenue is generated in international markets, which management views as more responsive for fuel pass-through. In Q&A, Conesa said translating fuel increases into fares has been “much more efficient” internationally than domestically. Murray added the airline achieved “great recapture across the board” internationally, particularly in the long-haul widebody network, which he said represents about 40% of capacity. He said the company had not seen “any cracks in demand” in international markets where fuel-related fare increases have been implemented. On transborder U.S. flying, Murray said disruptions earlier in the quarter were concentrated in U.S. point of sale, but demand has held up and the company has seen “quite strong recapture.” He estimated the U.S. transborder market represents about 22% of capacity, adding that any softness in U.S. point of sale has been offset by Mexico point of sale. Conesa also noted timing challenges in the first quarter: when the Middle East conflict began in late February/early March, he said 80% of remaining first-quarter tickets were already sold, limiting near-term pass-through. He referenced an average advance purchase period of about 35 days, saying pricing adjustments become more visible “once you get to the new cycle.” On capacity actions, Murray said the company removed roughly half a percentage point of second-quarter capacity as it reduced “non-core lower margin flying.” In response to a question about where cuts are easiest, Murray said point-to-point flying outside Mexico City was “the easiest to pare down,” while Conesa emphasized protecting the airline’s slot portfolio at Mexico City International Airport (AICM). As an example, Conesa said Aeroméxico will not operate Atlanta–San Luis Potosí, describing it as not covering cash costs and outside Mexico City. Management characterized the second quarter as a period of peak pressure from fuel costs. Conesa said the company expects to recover about 50% of incremental fuel costs in the second quarter, with recapture rising to around 70% in the third quarter and 100% in the fourth quarter as pricing and network actions flow through. Sánchez Baker provided second-quarter guidance, calling for capacity growth of about 1.5% to 2.5% year-over-year and revenue growth of 12.5% to 15.5% year-over-year. The company expects an adjusted EBITDA margin of 17% to 20% and an operating margin of 4% to 7%. Asked about the fuel price underlying guidance, Conesa said the company is using a range “roughly around $4 per gallon,” with a midpoint around $4. On cash flow, Sánchez Baker said the airline expects the second quarter’s seasonal strength (with customers buying summer travel in May and June) to offset fuel-related pressure, resulting in “no material variation” in cash balances by quarter-end. He added that if conditions normalize in line with the forward curve, the third quarter should be “flattish” and the fourth quarter positive for cash generation. For the full year, management said it was too early to revise guidance amid volatility. Conesa said the company intends to update full-year guidance when visibility improves and indicated it may provide an update before the next earnings release.

Domestic market yield improvements have been slower compared to international markets, affecting overall revenue recapture. Capacity adjustments are necessary, with a projected increase of only 1.5% to 2.5% year-over-year, reflecting strategic reductions in non-core, lower-margin flying. Q: Can you provide more details on your fuel recapture strategy and how it affects domestic and international markets? A: Andres Conesa Labastida, CEO: The international market, which accounts for 70% of our revenue, has been more responsive to fuel price increases than the domestic market. Capacity reductions in the domestic market could support better yields in the future. Aaron Murray, CCO: We've seen strong recapture in international markets, especially in long-haul routes, with no significant demand drop. In the US transborder market, demand is holding strong despite some initial disruptions. Q: How much of the second quarter was already booked before the fuel price spike, and how does this affect your ability to raise yields? A: Aaron Murray, CCO: About 40% of the second quarter was booked before the fuel recapture initiatives took effect. We are now closer to 60% booked, so as we move forward, a larger percentage of bookings will reflect the new pricing levels, improving our ability to recapture fuel costs. Q: What types of markets are you targeting for capacity reductions, and how do slot waivers in Mexico City factor into your plans? A: Aaron Murray, CCO: We are focusing on reducing point-to-point flying outside of our hub, particularly in markets not covering cash costs. Andres Conesa Labastida, CEO: Our priority is to maintain our slot portfolio in Mexico City. We will adjust capacity if necessary but will not risk our slots. Q: How should we think about your capacity plan for the year given recent adjustments? A: Aaron Murray, CCO: We initially guided for 3% to 5% growth but now expect closer to 2% to 3%. Growth will primarily come from our wide-body network, particularly in profitable markets like Barcelona. We have flexibility to adjust if market conditions change. Q: Are there any constraints on fuel availability, especially for long-haul flights? A: Andres Conesa Labastida, CEO: We are monitoring the situation closely. Domestically, we source a significant share of fuel locally, so no immediate risks there. In Europe and Asia, we are working with Delta to ensure fuel availability, and currently, we do not foresee shortages in the near term.
