Panama City, Panama — Aug 7, 2019. Copa Holdings, S.A. (NYSE: CPA), today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2019 (2Q19).

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 the financial tables section of this earnings release. Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons with prior periods refer to the second quarter of 2018 (2Q18).
OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
| § | Copa Holdings reported net profit of US$50.9 million for 2Q19 or earnings per share (EPS) of US$1.20, compared to net profit of US$49.8 million or earnings per share of US$1.17 in 2Q18. |
| § | Operating profit for 2Q19 came in at US$82.6 million, representing a 36.7% increase from an operating profit of US$60.4 million in 2Q18, as a result of a 6.3% increase in unit revenues (RASM), partly offset by a 2.5% increase in unit costs (CASM) which was mostly related to the grounding of the MAX fleet. |
| § | Operating margin for 2Q19 came in at 12.8%, compared to an operating margin of 9.5% in 2Q18. |
| § | Capacity (ASMs) decreased 4.3% in 2Q19, all due to the grounding of the MAX fleet, while consolidated passenger traffic (RPMs) decreased only 2.5%. As a result, consolidated load factor for the quarter increased 1.6 percentage points to 85.1%. |
| § | Total revenues for 2Q19 increased 1.7% to US$645.1 million. Yield per passenger mile increased 4.1% to 11.8 cents and RASM came in at 10.5 cents, 6.3% higher than 2Q18. |

| § | Cash, short-term and long-term investments ended the quarter at US$ 893.3 million, representing approximately 34% of the last twelve months’ revenues. |
| § | Despite the operational challenges due to the grounding of the MAX fleet, Copa Airlines delivered an on-time performance of 90.5% and a flight-completion factor of 99.8%, maintaining its position among the very best in the industry. |

MANAGEMENT’S COMMENTS ON 2Q19 RESULTS
Despite the operational and financial impact of the MAX grounding, Copa Holdings delivered outstanding operational results with a nearly 91% on-time performance and 99.8% completion factor. In terms of financial results, higher load factors and yields generated a significant unit revenue increase year over year, which combined with effective cost controls, generated a 12.8% operating margin, a 3.3 percentage point expansion over 2Q18.
The Company´s consolidated operating revenue increased 1.7% to US$645.1 million during the quarter on lower capacity of 4.3%.
Load factor came in at 85.1%, or 1.6 percentage points above 2Q18. Yields improved 4.1% to 11.8 cents. As a result, passenger revenues per ASM (PRASM) increased 6.1% to 10.1 cents in 2Q19.
Operating expenses for 2Q19 decreased 2.0% to US$562.5 million, while operating expenses per ASM (CASM) increased 2.5% to 9.1 cents. Excluding fuel costs, unit costs increased 5.7% to 6.2 cents, mainly due to the capacity reduction produced by the MAX grounding.
Aircraft fuel expense decreased 8.0% or US$15.3 million compared to 2Q18, due to lower jet fuel prices and fewer gallons consumed given the lower capacity. The Company’s effective jet fuel price decreased 5.3%, from an average of US$2.35 per gallon in 2Q18 to US$2.22 per gallon in 2Q19.
The Company recorded a non-operating expense of US$11.9 million for 2Q19 compared to non-operating expense of US$3.3 million in 2Q18. The Non-operating expense in 2Q19 includes a net interest expense of US$7.5 million, a US$2.2 million translation loss due to foreign currency fluctuations and US$2.1 million in other non-operating expenses, while 2Q18 non-operating expense includes a net interest expense of US$7.0 million, and a US$4.0 million translation gain due to foreign currency fluctuations.
Copa Holdings closed the quarter with US$ 893.3 million in cash, short-term and long-term investments, representing approximately 34% of last twelve months´ revenues.
Total debt at the end of 2Q19 amounted to US$1.24 billion compared to US$1.29 billion at the end of 2018, all of which is related to aircraft financing. At the end of the quarter, the Company’s lease liability-adjusted net-debt to EBITDA ratio was 1.1 times.
The company has a very solid business model, which is based on operating the best and most convenient network for intra-Latin America travel from its Hub of the Americas® based in Panama’s advantageous geographic position, with the region’s lowest unit costs, best on-time performance, and a strong balance sheet. Going forward, the Company expects to continue strengthening its long-term competitive position by taking advantage of new growth opportunities and implementing initiatives to further strengthen its network and product, while continue to reduce unit costs.

OUTLOOK FOR 2019
For 2019, the Company updates its guidance as follows: Given the protracted MAX grounding, consolidated capacity is now expected to decrease approximately 2% year over year. However, given the improving demand environment and lower fuel cost, the operating margin is now expected to come in the range of 15 to 17 percent.
| Financial Outlook |
2019 Guidance |
2018 Actual* |
| Capacity - YOY ASMs | -2% | 7.9% |
| Operating Margin | 15-17% | 13.0% |
Factored into the above-mentioned outlook is a load factor of approximately 85%, Unit Revenues (RASM) of 10.8 cents, Unit Costs excluding Fuel (Ex-Fuel CASM) of 6.3 cents and a lower estimated effective price per gallon of jet fuel, including into-plane costs, of US$2.15 per gallon.
The Company’s guidance makes certain assumptions regarding the impact of the grounding of the MAX fleet, including an assumed return to service date in the middle of December. Any changes in these assumptions could influence the guidance for the year.
*Re-stated for retrospective adoption of IFRS16, excluding special items.
CONSOLIDATED SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Operating revenue
Consolidated revenue for 2Q19 totaled US$645.1 million, a 1.7% or US$11.0 million increase from operating revenue of US$634.1 million in 2Q18.
Passenger revenue totaled US$620.5 million, an increase of 1.5% from passenger revenue of US$611.6 million in 2Q18. A 1.6 percentage point increase in load factor and a 4.1% increase in passenger yield resulted in a 6.1% increase in PRASM.
Cargo and mail revenue totaled US$16.5 million in 2Q19, a 2.9% increase over 2Q18 due to higher cargo yield.
Other operating revenue totaled US$8.1 million in 2Q19, a 24.1% increase over other operating revenue of US$6.5 million in 2Q18 mostly due to higher non-air frequent flyer program revenues.
Operating expenses
For 2Q19, operating expenses decreased 2.0% to US$562.5 million, representing operating cost per available seat mile (CASM) of 9.1 cents. Operating cost per available seat mile, excluding fuel costs (CASM Excl. Fuel), increased 5.7% to 6.2 cents in 2Q19, mostly due to the MAX fleet grounding.
Fuel totaled US$177.2 million, a US$15.3 million or 8.0% decrease over aircraft fuel expense of US$192.5 million in 2Q18. This decrease was a result of 2.9% fewer gallons consumed due to the MAX fleet grounding, and a 5.3% lower average price per gallon of jet fuel (all-in), which averaged US$2.35 in 2Q18, compared to US$2.22 in 2Q19.
| 4 |
Wages, salaries, benefits and other employees' expenses totaled US$108.3 million, a 0.1% decrease over salaries and benefits of US$108.4 million in 2Q18.
Passenger servicing totaled US$25.5 million, a 2.2% decrease over passenger servicing of US$26.1 million in 2Q18. This decrease resulted primarily from lower effective per passenger rates.
Airport facilities and handling charges totaled US$44.7 million, a 2.7% decrease over US$45.9 million in 2Q18. This was primarily a result of a decrease in departures.
Sales and distribution totaled US$51.3 million, a 2.8% decrease from an expense of US$52.8 million in 2Q18. This decrease was mainly due to lower effective rates.
Maintenance, material and repairs totaled US$31.2 million, a 12.2% increase from maintenance, material and repairs of US$27.8 million in 2Q18. This was a result of landing gear and APU maintenance events performed in the quarter, which are fully expensed as incurred according to the accounting policies assumed in 2018.
Depreciation and amortization totaled US$70.6 million in 2Q19, a 0.8% increase from depreciation of US$70.0 million in 2Q18.
Flight operations increased 0.1%, from US$25.4 million in 2Q18 to US$25.5 million in 2Q19.
Other operating and administrative expenses totaled US$28.2 million in 2Q19, an increase of 14.3% vs. 2Q18, mainly due to certain overhead savings realized in 2Q18.
Non-operating Income (Expense)
Consolidated non-operating income (expense) resulted in a net expense of US$11.9 million in 2Q19, compared to a net expense of US$3.3 million in 2Q18.
Finance cost totaled US$13.6 million in 2Q19, a 4.1% increase over US$13.0 million in 2Q18, mainly the result of a higher debt balance caused by aircraft deliveries in the second half of 2018 and a slightly higher effective rate.
Finance income totaled US$6.0 million, flat year over year
Gain (loss) on foreign currency fluctuations totaled a US$2.2 million loss, compared to a US$4.0 million gain in 2Q18. This translational loss was mainly driven by fluctuations in the Argentinian and Colombian currencies, compared to a translation gain on Venezuelan Bolivar denominated payables in 2Q18.
Other non-operating (income) expense resulted in a net expense of US$2.1 million in 2Q19 compared to a net income of US$0.3 million in 2Q18.
Income Tax Expense totaled US$19.9 million, US$12.5 million higher than 2Q18, mostly due to the timing of certain tax payments in Panama. For the full year 2019 the Company expects its effective tax rate to be in the range of 13%.
