MANAGEMENT COMMENTS ON 1Q-13 RESULTS
The net income in 1Q 2013 reflects the continued implementation of our integration strategy aimed at capturing revenue synergies as a result of our enhanced network, improved connectivity through our hubs, our revamped LifeMiles loyalty program and improved customer service. During 1Q 2013, our net income was USD$ 75.3 million, an increase of more than USD$ 75 million over the profit recorded for the same period in 2012.
The financial results reported by Avianca Holdings, S.A. for 1Q-13, reflect a sustained growth as a result of the strategy implemented by the organization. Operating revenues increased to USD$ 1.11 billion during the period. This represents an increase of 5.9% over the same period in 2012.
These results are primarily due to the growth in passenger revenues from ticket sales, which increased 6.5% during the period. This increase was mainly driven by an 8.9% increase in the number of total passengers, passing from 5.5 million passengers in the first quarter of 2012 to nearly 6.0 million passengers in first quarter of 2013.
Avianca continued with its market penetration strategy in the Peruvian domestic market where the Company experience an increase in the number of carried passengers of 29.0% when compared to the first quarter of 2012.
During the quarter, the company maintained its leadership in the Colombian domestic market with a 55% market share, while in Peru it increased its domestic market participation to 15.0% from 11.7%, an increase of 3.3 percentage points compared to the first quarter of 2012
Avianca increased during the first quarter of 2013 more than 40 weekly frequencies on its international and domestic routes which include: Bogota-Miami (+ 7), Bogota, Santo Domingo (+1), Bogota, Havana (+1), Cali - Guayaquil (+2), Bogota – Guayaquil (+4), San Salvador – Quito (+3), among others. In Line with the fleet renewal program, the company continues to incorporate new aircraft. During the first quarter, one (1) Airbus A330-Freighter, one (1) Airbus A330 and two (2) Airbus A320 passenger aircraft (one of which is equipped with sharklets) were incorporated.
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2013 increased 3.7% to USD$ 1.01 billion, including a 4.3% increase in fuel costs associated with a larger consumption of fuel gallons as a result of the capacity expansion. Excluding fuel cost, total operating expenses grew 3.4%, below the increase of consolidated operating revenues recorded for the period. Operating expenses excluding fuel costs, for the first quarter of 2012, were affected by a credit of USD$ 8.7 million related to a gain on sale of property and flight equipment compared to a loss of $1.5 million recorded in first quarter 2013. Excluding these items, operating expenses excluding fuel grew 1.8%.
Consequently operating profit between January and March 2013, reached USD$ 108.1 million, 31.1% higher than that recorded in the same period of 2012.
At the end of first quarter of 2013, the company has hedged approximately 25% of the consolidated volume for the next twelve months as follows: approximately 28% for 2Q-13, 24% for 3Q-13, 23% for 4Q-13 and 25% for 1Q-14.
The company recorded for first quarter 2013, other non-operating expenses of USD$ 19.8 million compared to USD$ 76.0 million for the same period of 2012. Non-operating expenses include the change in fair value for derivative instruments (mark-to-market loss) of USD $4.7 million compared to loss of USD $8.1 million in first quarter 2012, including also a net gain related to the foreign exchange adjustment of USD $5.6 million (including loss related to devaluation of Venezuelan Bolivar) compared to a net loss of USD$ 47.0 million for the same period of 2012.
2013 - OUTLOOK
During 2013, Avianca expects to continue with a capacity expansion in its key markets, as a result the company forecasts ASK growth between 8% and 10%, in line with a net increase of 7 new aircraft for passenger operations.
In terms of passenger traffic, the company expects a sustained growth during 2013. Passenger numbers are expected to increase between 11% and 13%, as a result the load factor should stand between 77% and 79%.
