MANAGEMENT’S COMMENTS ON 3Q13 RESULTS
Copa Holdings third quarter results continued to reflect solid demand trends as well as lower unit costs due to lower fuel prices for the quarter. For 3Q13, the Company reported operating income of US$147.5 million, a 29.3% increase over 3Q12. As a result, operating margin for the quarter stood at 21.8%, an increase of 2.5 percentage points over 3Q12.
Consolidated operating revenues increased 14.7% to US$677.3 million on an 11.6% capacity expansion for the period. Load factor came in at 78.1%, or 2.6 percentage points above 3Q12, while yields came in at 17.2 cents, or 0.1% lower than 3Q12. As a result, passenger revenues per ASM (PRASM) increased 3.4%, from 13.0 cents in 3Q12 to 13.5 cents in 3Q13. Furthermore, adjusting for a 7.5% increase in length of haul, PRASM increased 7.2% over 3Q12.
Consolidated operating expenses for 3Q13 increased 11.2% to US$529.8 million, and consolidated operating expenses per ASM (CASM) decreased 0.3% to 10.9 cents. However, excluding fuel costs, unit costs increased 2.7% to 6.8 cents, mainly as a result of higher aircraft rental expense and an increase in sales related costs.
Aircraft fuel expense increased 6.1% or US$11.3 million compared to 3Q12, as a result of increased capacity. The Company’s effective jet fuel price, which includes realized hedge gains of US$6.8 million and US$2.0 million for 3Q13 and 3Q12, respectively, decreased 3.8%, from an average of US$3.24 in 3Q12 to US$3.12 in 3Q13. At the end of 3Q13, the Company had fuel hedges in place representing 38% of its consolidated volume. Continuing with the execution of its fuel hedge policy, the Company currently has hedged approximately 37% in 4Q13. For 2014 and 2015, the Company had hedged approximately 20% and 15%, respectively, of its forecasted fuel consumption.
The Company recorded a net non-operating income of US$6.3 million for 3Q13 compared to a net non-operating income of US$8.9 million for 3Q12. Non-operating income (expense) included a fuel hedge mark-to-market gain of US$9.8 million, compared to a fuel hedge mark-to-market gain of US$14.3 million for 3Q12.
Copa Holdings closed the quarter with US$1.0 billion in cash, short term and long term investments, representing 40.7% of last twelve months´ revenues. Of such cash, 38.4% or $391.8 million was subject to exchange controls in Venezuela and was pending repatriation. Total debt at the end of 3Q13 amounted to US$1.1 billion, all of which is related to aircraft and equipment financing.
Copa Holdings’ strong third quarter results are the product of a solid and well executed business model which leverages the Company’s unique competitive advantages, such as geographic position and infrastructure, among others, to operate the best and most convenient network for intra-Latin America travel from the Hub of the Americas in Panama. Going forward, the Company will continue to strengthen its long-term competitive position by taking advantage of new growth opportunities and implementing initiatives to further strengthen its network and product.

OUTLOOK FOR 2013
For 2013, the Company reaffirms its guidance. Consolidated capacity is still expected to grow in the range of 14%, as a result of the full year effect of capacity added in 2012 and the introduction of seven new 737-800 aircraft during 2013. Our guidance in terms of load factor, RASM and CASM ex-fuel levels remain unchanged. Factored into the current guidance is an estimated effective price per gallon of jet fuel, including the effect of current hedge contracts and into-plane costs, of US$3.20 per gallon. As a result, we are narrowing our full year operating margin guidance to +/-20%.
Financial Outlook | 2013 - Full Year Revised | 2013 - Full Year Prior | 2012 Actual | |||||||||
Capacity - YOY ASM Growth | +/-14 | % | +/-14 | % | 24.1 | % | ||||||
Average Load Factor | +/-76 | % | +/-76 | % | 75.4 | % | ||||||
RASM (cents) | +/-13.6 | +/-13.6 | 13.6 | |||||||||
CASM Ex-fuel (cents) | +/-6.7 | +/-6.7 | 6.8 | |||||||||
Operating Margin | +/-20 | % | 19-21 | % | 17.9 | % |
OUTLOOK FOR 2014 – PRELIMINARY
For 2014, preliminary guidance is for consolidated capacity growth in the range of 10% as a result of the full year effect of capacity added in 2013 and the introduction of 8 Boeing 737-800 aircraft during the year.
Load factors are expected to come in above 2013 levels as a result of a healthy demand environment and lower year over year capacity growth. As a result, unit revenues (RASM) are expected to come in at 13.7 cents, slightly higher than 2013 levels. However, at 6.8 cents, CASM ex-fuel is also expected to come in slightly higher year over year. The estimated effective price per gallon of jet fuel, including the effect of current hedge contracts and into-plane costs for 2014 is US$3.15 per gallon. As a result, the Company is projecting an operating margin in the range of 19% to 21%.
