Exhibit 99.1

Copa Holdings Reports Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2021

 

Panama City, Panama --- November 17, 2021.  Copa Holdings, S.A. (NYSE: CPA), today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2021 (3Q21). The terms “Copa Holdings” and “the Company” refer to the consolidated entity.  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 third quarter of 2019 (3Q19) (which the Company believes are more relevant than year-over-year comparisons due to the significant impacts in 2020 of the COVID-19 pandemic).

 

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Copa Holdings reported a net profit of US$8.2 million for the quarter or US$0.19 per share. Excluding special items, the Company would have reported a net profit of US$29.9 million or US$0.70 per share. Special items include a US$32.1 million unrealized mark-to-market loss related to the Company’s convertible notes and a passenger revenue adjustment of (US$10.4) million corresponding to unredeemed coupons from 2019 and 2020 sales.

Copa Holdings reported an operating profit of US$59.0 million for the quarter and an operating margin of 13.3%. Excluding the US$10.4 million passenger unredeemed coupon revenue adjustment, the Company would have reported an operating profit of US$48.6 million and an 11.2% operating margin.

Operating cost per available seat mile (CASM) decreased 12.4% vs. 2Q21 to 8.8 cents. While CASM, excluding fuel costs, decreased 18.6% to 6.2 cents.

Cash buildup, defined as cash proceeds minus disbursements, excluding extraordinary financing activities and asset sales but including capital expenditures and payment of financial obligations, resulted in US$54 million for the quarter.

The Company ended the quarter with US$1.6 billion of available liquidity, consisting of approximately US$1.3 billion in cash, short-term and long-term investments, and US$345 million of committed and undrawn credit facilities.

The Company closed the quarter with total debt, including lease liabilities, of US$1.6 billion.

Flight operations, measured in terms of available seat miles (ASMs), represented 68.9% of the capacity flown over the same period in 2019.

During the quarter, the Company announced three new destinations starting December 2021 — Atlanta in the U.S. and Armenia and Cucuta in Colombia.

During the quarter, the Company exited the last Embraer 190 in its fleet and delivered two Boeing 737-700s to their new owner.

Excluding the aircraft classified as assets held for sale, and including aircraft in temporary storage, Copa Holdings ended the quarter with a consolidated fleet of 87 aircraft – 68 Boeing 737-800s, 13 Boeing 737 MAX 9s, and 6 Boeing 737-700s, compared to a fleet of 102 aircraft the Company operated prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company agreed with Boeing to accelerate the delivery of 12 Boeing 737 MAX 9s from its current order, two in 2022 and the other ten between 2023 and 2025.

Copa Airlines had an on-time performance for the quarter of 89.4% and a flight completion factor of 99.84%, once again positioning itself amongst the best in the industry.

MANAGEMENT’S COMMENTS ON 3Q21 RESULTS

Improvements in vaccination rates and reduced travel restrictions in Latin America have positively impacted international travel demand in the region, allowing the Company to deploy additional capacity quarter-over-quarter. Although most countries continue to have travel restrictions and/or health requirements, downward trends in COVID-19 cases have led to a relaxation of these measures, which we expect should help to further increase air travel demand.

During the third quarter, the Company reported an operating profit of US$59.0 million, an operating margin of 13.3%, and a net profit of US$8.2 million. Excluding special items, the Company would have reported an operating profit of US$48.6 million, an operating margin of 11.2%, and a net profit of US$29.9 million. These figures compare to an adjusted operating profit of US$1.7 million and an adjusted net loss of US$16.2 million in the second quarter.

The Company managed to increase its capacity quarter-over-quarter by 49.1% while delivering RASM of 10.1 cents, a 1.9% decrease compared to 2Q21. The Company’s unit costs (CASM) excluding fuel came in at 6.2 cents, flat when compared to the same period in 2019, while available seat miles (ASM’s) for the quarter totaled 68.9% of 3Q19 capacity.

Excluding extraordinary financing activities and asset sales, but including capital expenditures and payment of financial obligations, cash buildup for the third quarter resulted in US$54 million. The Company ended the quarter with a cash balance of US$1.3 billion and total liquidity of US$1.6 billion.

The Company has a proven and very strong business model, which is built on operating the best and most convenient network for intra-Latin America travel from its Hub of the Americas® based on Panama’s advantageous geographic position, with the region’s lowest unit costs for a full-service airline, best on-time performance, and strongest balance sheet. Going forward, the Company expects to leverage its strong balance sheet, leading liquidity position, and lower cost base to continue strengthening its long-term competitive position and to implement initiatives to further strengthen its network and product in the post COVID-19 world.

OUTLOOK FOR 4Q21 AND FIRST HALF OF 2022

 

As a result of the uncertainty regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of changing travel restrictions, the Company will provide financial guidance only for the fourth quarter of 2021 and preliminary capacity guidance for the first half of 2022.

 

Subject to COVID-19 developments, including changes in government restrictions, among other factors, the Company currently expects its capacity in 4Q21 to reach approximately 5.1 billion ASMs or roughly 83% of 4Q19 ASMs. The Company expects its operating margin to be approximately 12% for 4Q21.

Factored in this outlook, the Company expects total revenues of approximately US$545 million or about 80% of 4Q19 total revenues, unit costs excluding fuel (Ex-Fuel CASM) of approximately 6.1 cents; and an all-in fuel price per gallon of $2.50, an increase of approximately 17% quarter-over-quarter.

 

For the first half of 2022, the Company expects to average approximately 92% of first half 2019 ASMs.

CONSOLIDATED THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Operating revenue

Consolidated revenue for 3Q21 totaled US$445.0 million, mainly driven by passenger revenue.

 

Passenger revenue totaled US$417.5 million, a 39.1% decrease compared to the same period in 2019, on 31.1% less capacity. These results are mostly comprised of flown passenger ticket revenue, a US$10.4 million adjustment in unredeemed tickets related to 2019 and 2020 sales, and passenger-related ancillary revenue.

 

Cargo and mail revenue totaled US$21.1 million, a 43.9% increase compared to the same period in 2019, related to more cargo volume and higher yields.

  

Other operating revenue totaled US$6.5 million, mainly revenues from non-air ConnectMiles partners.

Fuel totaled US$112.7 million, a decrease of 36.6% compared to the same period in 2019, on 36.5% fewer gallons consumed, and a 1.0% lower effective fuel price.

 

Wages, salaries, benefits, and other employees' expenses totaled US$68.0 million, representing a 40.0% decrease compared to the same period in 2019, mainly driven by a reduced headcount.

 

Passenger servicing totaled US$10.6 million, a decrease of 59.6% compared to the same period in 2019, as a result of 27.7% fewer passengers and a simplified onboard product offering due to temporary COVID-19 biosafety protocols.

 

Airport facilities and handling charges totaled US$39.4 million, a decrease of 16.9% compared to the same period in 2019, related to 32.4% fewer departures, and partially offset by higher airport fees in the U.S.

 

4

 


 

Sales and distribution totaled US$36.1 million, representing a decrease of 31.9% compared to the same period in 2019, due to lower sales made during Q3 2021.

 

Maintenance, materials, and repairs totaled US$24.0 million, a decrease of 21.6% compared to the same period of 2019, related to 37.1% fewer flight hours, mainly driven by less material consumption and component repairs.

 

Depreciation and amortization totaled US$55.7 million, mostly comprised of owned and leased flight equipment, maintenance events, and IT systems amortizations.

 

Flight operations totaled US$16.3 million, mostly related to overflight fees, a decrease of 38.7% compared to the same period in 2019, driven by 32.4% fewer departures.

 

Other operating and administrative expenses totaled US$23.2 million, mainly comprised of IT systems expenses, aircraft insurance, and cargo expenses, as well as other overhead expenses.

 

Non-operating Income (Expense)

 

Consolidated non-operating income (expense) resulted in a net expense of US$52.2 million.

 

Finance cost totaled US$18.6 million, driven by US$9.7 million convertible notes interest expense, US$6.2 million related to loan interest and commission expenses, and US$1.3 million in interest charges related to operating leases.

 

Finance income totaled US$2.7 million in proceeds from investments.

 

Net change in fair value of derivatives totaled a net (US$32.1) million unrealized mark-to-market loss related to the Company’s convertible notes.

 

Gain (loss) on foreign currency fluctuations totaled (US$2.6) million, mainly driven by the devaluation of the Brazilian real.

 

Other non-operating income (expense) totaled (US$1.6) million.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURE RECONCILIATION

 

This press release includes the following non-IFRS financial measures: Adjusted Operating Profit, Adjusted Net Profit, Adjusted Basic EPS, Operating CASM Excluding Fuel, and Cash Buildup. This supplemental information is presented because we believe it is a useful indicator of our operating performance and is useful in comparing our performance with other companies in the airline industry. These measures should not be considered in isolation, and should be considered together with comparable IFRS measures, in particular operating profit, and net profit. The following is a reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to the comparable IFRS measures:
