The following financial information, unless otherwise indicated, is presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). See the accompanying reconciliation of non-IFRS financial information to IFRS financial information included in financial tables section of this earnings release. Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons with prior periods refer to the first quarter of 2015 (1Q15).
OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
| § | Copa Holdings reported net income of US$115.5 million for 1Q16, or diluted earnings per share (EPS) of US$2.74. Excluding special items, Copa Holdings would have reported an adjusted net income of US$69.9 million, or EPS of US$1.66 per share, a 31.1% decrease over adjusted net income of US$106.1 million and US$2.41 per share for 1Q15. |
| § | Operating income for 1Q16 came in at US$94.1 million, a 26.1% decrease over operating income of US$127.3 million in 1Q15. Operating margin for the period came in at 16.9%, compared to 20.1% in 1Q15, as a result of lower unit revenues partially offset by lower unit costs. |
| § | Total revenues decreased 11.8% to US$557.1 million. Yield per passenger mile decreased 15.4% to 12.5 cents and operating revenue per available seat mile (RASM) decreased 13.9% to 10.0 cents. |
| § | For 1Q16, passenger traffic (RPMs) grew 3.6% on a 2.4% capacity expansion. Consolidated load factor came in at 77.4%, 0.9 percentage points above 1Q15. |
| § | Operating cost per available seat mile (CASM) decreased 10.4%, from 9.3 cents in 1Q15 to 8.3 cents in 1Q16, mainly due to lower jet fuel costs, despite US$29 million in realized fuel hedge losses. CASM, excluding fuel, decreased 2.8% to 6.2 cents mainly due to weaker regional currencies and contract renegotiations with various suppliers. |
| § | Cash, short-term and long-term investments ended 1Q16 at US$723.9 million, representing 33% of the last twelve months’ revenues. |
| § | For 1Q16, Copa Holdings reported consolidated on-time performance of 90.6% and a flight-completion factor of 99.8%, maintaining its position among the best in the industry. |
Subsequent Events

In its 2015 audited financial statements, the company recognized a $430.2 million U.S. dollar foreign currency translation loss, on its bolivar cash balance, due to the migration to an exchange rate of 198.69 bolivars per U.S. dollar, instead of the previously used rate of 6.3 bolivars per U.S. dollar. |
| § | On June 15th, 2016, Copa Holdings will pay its second quarter dividend of US$0.51 per share, on all outstanding Class A and Class B shares, to stockholders of record as of May 31st, 2016. |

MANAGEMENT’S COMMENTS ON 1Q16 RESULTS
Copa Holdings first quarter results reflect lower unit revenues driven in large part by the reduction in yields in Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia as well as further demand weakness in other markets, partially offset by lower fuel expense and lower ex-fuel unit costs for the quarter.
Total revenues decreased 11.8% to US$557.1 million during the quarter on capacity growth of 2.4%. Load factor came in at 77.4%, or 0.9 percentage points above 1Q15, while yields decreased 15.4% to 12.5 cents. As a result, passenger revenues per ASM (PRASM) decreased 14.5%, from 11.3 cents in 1Q15 to 9.7 cents in 1Q16.
Consolidated operating expenses for 1Q16 decreased 8.2% to US$463.0 million, while consolidated operating expenses per ASM (CASM) decreased 10.4% to 8.3 cents. Excluding fuel costs, unit costs decreased 2.8% to 6.2 cents, mainly as the Company benefited from weaker currencies and contract renegotiations with various suppliers.
Aircraft fuel expense decreased 25.0% or US$40.2 million compared to 1Q15, mostly as a result of lower fuel prices, partially offset by higher fuel consumption from larger gauge aircraft. The Company’s effective jet fuel price, which includes a realized hedge loss of US$29.0 million in 1Q16 and a loss of US$25.7 million in 1Q15, decreased from an average of US$2.31 in 1Q15 to US$1.68 in 1Q16.
For 1Q16, the Company had fuel hedges in place representing 35% of its consolidated volume. The Company has already hedged approximately 32% of its projected volume for 2Q16, 32% in 3Q16 and 35% in 4Q16. For 2017, the Company has hedged approximately 6% of its forecasted fuel consumption. The Company has not entered into any new fuel hedge positions since July 2015.
The Company recorded a net non-operating income of US$32.8 million for 1Q16 compared to a net non-operating income of US$0.8 million for 1Q15. For 1Q16, non-operating income (expense) included a fuel hedge mark-to-market gain of US$27.4 million compared to a fuel hedge mark-to-market gain of US$7.1 million for 1Q15, and an US$18.1 non-operating income mostly due to the currency exchange gain on an approved Venezuela repatriation.
Copa Holdings closed the quarter with US$723.9 million in cash, short-term and long-term investments, representing 33% of the last twelve months´ revenues. Of such cash, US$8.9 million is subject to exchange controls in Venezuela and pending repatriation. During the quarter the company received payment for US$18.6 million from the Venezuelan Government, corresponding to March 2013 sales, at an exchange rate of 13.5 bolivars per U.S. dollar.
Total debt at the end of 1Q16 amounted to US$1.25 billion, all of which is related to aircraft and equipment financing.
We believe we have a very solid business model, which is based on operating the largest and most convenient network for intra-Latin America travel from our hub based in Panama’s unbeatable geographic position, with the lowest unit costs of any full service carrier in the Americas, world leading on-time performance, and a strong balance sheet. Going forward, the Company expects to 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 2016
For 2016, the Company updates its guidance as follows: Consolidated capacity is now expected to grow +/-2%, mainly as a result of capacity reductions in underperforming markets, such as Brazil and Venezuela.
Load factors are still expected to come in at +/-76%. However, unit revenues (RASM) are now expected to come in at +/-9.6 cents, due to a weaker economic outlook for South America. Unit costs excluding fuel, or CASM ex-fuel, are expected to come in lower at +/-6.4 cents due to cost efficiency initiatives.
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$1.80 per gallon, up from US$1.70 in the previous guidance. As a result, the Company is projecting an operating margin in the range of 9% to 11% for 2016.
| Financial Outlook | 2016 - Full Year Revised |
2016 - Full Year Prior |
2015 Reported |
| Capacity - ASM Growth | +/-2% | +/-3% | 4.4% |
| Average Load Factor | +/-76% | +/-76% | 75.2% |

CONSOLIDATED FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Operating revenue
Copa Holdings’ operating revenue for 1Q16 totaled US$557.1 million, an 11.8% decrease over operating revenue of US$631.9 million in 1Q15. This decrease was primarily due to a 12.4% or US$75.8 million decrease in passenger revenue.
Passenger revenue. For 1Q16 passenger revenue totaled US$537.7, a 12.4% decrease over passenger revenue of US$613.5 million in 1Q15. Passenger yield decreased 15.4% to 12.5, while load factor increased 0.9 percentage points to 77.4%, which resulted in a 14.5% decrease in passenger revenue per ASM (PRASM).
Cargo, mail and other. Cargo, mail and other revenue totaled US$19.4 million in 1Q16, a 5.7% increase over cargo, mail and other of US$18.3 million in 1Q15.
Operating expenses
For 1Q16, consolidated operating expenses decreased 8.2% to US$463.0 million, representing operating cost per available seat mile (CASM) of 8.3 cents. CASM, excluding fuel costs, decreased 2.8% to 6.2 cents. An overview of the major variances on a consolidated basis follows:
| 4 |
| |
Aircraft fuel. For 1Q16, aircraft fuel totaled US$120.5 million, a US$40.2 million or 25.0% decrease over aircraft fuel of US$160.8 million in 1Q15. This decrease was primarily a result of a 27.2% decrease in the average price per gallon of jet fuel (all-in), which averaged US$1.68 in 1Q16 as compared to US$2.31 in 1Q15, and was partially offset by a 3.0% increase in gallons consumed. The all-in average price per gallon of jet fuel for 1Q16 includes a realized US$29.0 million fuel hedge loss, compared to a US$25.7 million loss in 1Q15. Excluding the effect of realized fuel hedge loss for both periods, fuel prices decreased 34.2%, from US$1.94 per gallon in 1Q15 to US$1.28 in 1Q16.
Salaries and benefits. For 1Q16, salaries and benefits totaled US$73.7 million, a 5.5% decrease over salaries and benefits of US$78.0 million in 1Q15. The main driver was the positive effect of weaker FX rates against the US dollar.
Passenger servicing. For 1Q16, passenger servicing totaled US$60.5 million, an 8.5% decrease over passenger servicing of US$66.1 million in 1Q15. This decrease is mainly driven by contract renegotiations with various suppliers and the positive effect of weaker currency rates against the US Dollar.
Commissions. For 1Q16, commissions totaled US$21.0 million, a 19.3% decrease over commissions of US$26.0 million in 1Q15. This decrease was primarily a result of a lower revenue base.
Reservations and sales. Reservations and sales totaled US$26.0 million, a 21.1% increase over reservation and sales of US$21.5 million in 1Q15. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in passengers carried, and higher GDS rates.
Maintenance, material and repairs. For 1Q16, maintenance, material and repairs totaled US$29.4 million, a 14.4% increase over maintenance, material and repairs of US$25.7 million in 1Q15. This increase was mainly due to higher provisions for future lease returns.
Depreciation. Depreciation totaled US$34.4 million in 1Q16, a 9.3% increase over depreciation of US$31.5 million in 1Q15. This increase was primarily driven by 6 additional aircraft deliveries from 2015, the depreciation of maintenance events, and other projects.
Flight operations, aircraft rentals, landing fees and other rentals. Combined, flight operations, aircraft rentals, landing fees and other rentals decreased 1.7% from US$77.4 million in 1Q15 to US$76.0 million in 1Q16, primarily as a result of efficiencies in crew-related expenses.
Other. Other expenses totaled US$21.4 million, an increase of US$3.8 million from 1Q15. This was primarily a result of non-cash costs related to the ramp-up of ConnectMiles.
Non-operating income (expense)
Consolidated non-operating income (expense) totaled a net non-operating income of US$32.8 million in 1Q16, compared to a net non-operating income of US$0.8 million in 1Q15.
Interest expense. Interest expense totaled US$9.3 million in 1Q16, a 22.5% increase from interest expense of US$7.6 million in 1Q15, as a result of a higher effective interest rate and outstanding debt balance related to recent aircraft deliveries.
| 5 |
| |
Interest income. Interest income totaled US$2.8 million, a 55.7% decrease over interest income of US$6.3 million in 1Q15, mostly due to the reduction of Venezuela cash balance given the foreign currency translation loss reported in our 2015 audited financial results.
Other, net. Other, net totaled a net gain of US$39.4 million in 1Q16, compared to a net gain of US$2.1 million in 1Q15. Other, net, for 1Q16, consists mainly of a fuel hedge mark-to-market gain of US$27.4 million, compared to a fuel hedge mark-to-market gain of US$7.1 million, and an US$18.1 non-operating income due to the currency exchange transaction on an approved Venezuela repatriation.
