¹ Operating results were adjusted for non-recurring items totaling R$359.4 million in 2Q26. For more information see page 7.
| § | Record operating revenue for a second quarter at R$5.0 billion, even with a 10.6% capacity reduction year-over-year. Such result was driven by higher fares implemented to offset the significant increase in fuel prices and resulted in stronger yields and unit revenues. |
| § | During 2Q26, Azul strategically reduced domestic and international capacity by 6.5% and 24.9%, respectively, versus 2Q25, consistent with its restructuring plan. In response to higher fuel prices, the Company proactively implemented further capacity reductions to protect liquidity and maintain focus on long-term value creation. |
| § | Azul remained focused on capturing premium demand through a strategic focus on high-yield customers. In 2Q26, premium revenue increased 12.4% versus 2Q25. |
| § | RASK reached a record for a second quarter at R$43.41 cents in 2Q26, up 12.7% year-over-year. Our business units continued to make meaningful contributions, accounting for 21% of RASK in the quarter. |
| § | CASK in 2Q26 was R$44.80 cents, 26.0% higher compared to 2Q25, primarily driven by a 61.8% increase in fuel cost, and a 10.6% capacity reduction, which temporarily reduced fixed-cost absorption. Strategic and temporary retention initiatives, higher sales incentives, and inflation also contributed to the increase. |
| § | 2Q26 EBITDA reached R$510.1 million, in a significantly higher jet fuel price environment, representing a 10.2%, with the Company operating in a significantly higher fuel-price environment and 10.6% lower capacity. |
| § | Azul ended 2Q26 with R$3.7 billion in immediate liquidity. In the quarter, the company paid R$794.5 million in non-recurring restructuring-related items per the restructuring plan. The government recently approved up to R$4.6 billion in long-term financing in Brazilian reais at attractive rates, exceeding the amounts contemplated in our business plan. This provides Azul additional financial flexibility to navigate this transition year and to focus on executing our long-term plan. |
| § | Compared to 2Q25, total debt reduced R$13.0 billion to R$21.4 billion due to the successful completion of our financial restructuring. Azul’s leverage ratio measured as net debt to EBITDA and using available liquidity was 3.0x, down 2.3 turns year-over-year. Using immediate liquidity, net leverage was 2.8x as of quarter-end. |
| § | Azul made significant improvement in the overall travel experience, which translated into a Net Promoter Score (NPS) increase of more than 26 points in 2026. Azul was ranked the most on-time airline in Brazil in April and June, and the most on-time airline in Latin America in July. |

Management Comments
I would like to begin by thanking our more than 14,000 crewmembers for their dedication, passion, and commitment to our customers. Our team remains focused on safety, operational excellence, and delivering the best travel experience in Brazil as we continue building a stronger Azul following the successful completion of our restructuring.
The second quarter is historically the most challenging period of the year for profitability in Brazil, and 2Q26 was impacted by significant increase in fuel prices and the World Cup. Despite these headwinds, demand remained healthy, supporting our record second-quarter revenue of R$5.0 billion and record RASK of R$43.41 cents, up 12.7% year-over-year.
During 2Q26, Azul continued to implement disciplined capacity adjustments consistent with its restructuring plan, which included significant fleet transition, while proactively reducing capacity further in response to the increase in fuel prices. These actions enabled Azul to align capacity with profitable demand, supported stronger yields, and delivered record RASK. At the same time, the lower capacity environment temporarily pressured unit costs as fixed costs were spread over a smaller base.
As fleet availability stabilizes and modest capacity growth resumes from 4Q26, these temporary pressures are expected to diminish, allowing Azul to capture greater operating leverage and translate the efficiency gains from its transformation into stronger cash generation and value creation in the future.
2026 is a transition year for Azul. While the successful completion of our restructuring significantly strengthened our balance sheet, the quarter was still impacted by non-recurring payments, such as advisory fees, restructuring-related payments, aircraft redeliveries, fleet transitions, and other initiatives required to position the Company for long-term success. At the same time, we are already seeing the benefits of this transformation. Compared to the prior year, Azul reduced total debt by approximately R$13.0 billion and significantly lowered leverage, allowing our focus to shift from restructuring to execution, operational improvement, free cash flow generation, and deleveraging.
Azul’s current liquidity position, combined with availability of up to R$4.6 billion in government-backed, long-term financing in Brazilian reais at attractive rates, provides the financial flexibility to navigate this transition year and gives management confidence to execute the Company’s strategic plan and deliver long-term value creation.
Operationally, Azul continues to make meaningful progress. We were recognized as the most on-time airline in Latin America in July, while our NPS continues to improve quarter-over-quarter, reflecting our commitment to offering the best product and service in Brazil. We are also gradually eliminating ACMI operations, with the objective of operating exclusively with Azul aircraft and Azul crewmembers in 2027, further improving operational reliability and customer experience.
As we continue to enhance our product, we remain focused on growing premium and recurring revenue streams. Even with a reduction in total capacity by 10.6% versus 2Q25, premium revenues increased 12.4% during the quarter, demonstrating the success of our strategy to prioritize revenue quality over volume growth. In parallel, we are deploying Artificial Intelligence solutions across the organization to improve productivity, automate processes, enhance decision-making, and identify efficiency opportunities, supporting long-term margin expansion and scalability.
Looking ahead, we believe the challenges that impacted the second quarter are largely temporary. Azul enters the second half with a stronger balance sheet, improving operational metrics, growing customer satisfaction, a modern and fuel-efficient fleet, and a disciplined commercial strategy centered on profitability and cash generation. Our focus remains clear: delivering the best travel experience in Brazil while creating sustainable long-term value for our customers, crewmembers, and shareholders.
John Rodgerson, CEO of Azul S.A.

Operating Revenue
In 2Q26, Azul’s total operating revenues increased R$36.3 million, to a second-quarter record of R$5.0 billion, up 0.7% year-over-year. This performance was driven by higher fares implemented to partially offset the significant increase in fuel prices, resulting in stronger yields and unit revenues.
Our RASK and PRASK were at record levels for a second quarter at R$43.41 cents and R$39.77 cents respectively. In 2Q26, our beyond-the-metal business units accounted for 21% of RASK, while unit contribution increased from R$8.70 cents to R$9.15 cents year-over-year.
| 4 |
| | Second Quarter Results 2026 |
Azul Logistics revenue and other totaled R$418.1 million, 15.1% higher than 2Q25, mainly due to better performance in our domestic logistics operation. In 2Q26, logistic revenues increased 16.1% year-over-year, driven by stronger freighter operations and supported by healthy margins in addition to the improvement in our charter business.

Operating Expenses
In 2Q26, operating expenses totaled R$5.1 billion, an increase of 12.6% compared with 2Q25. Costs per ASK increased 26.0% to R$44.80 cents, primarily driven by the increase of 61.8% in fuel cost and 10.6% reduction in capacity.
The breakdown of our main operating expenses compared to 2Q25 is as follows:
| § | Aircraft fuel increased 41.2% to R$1,960.8 million, mainly driven by the 61.8% increase in fuel price per liter, partially offset by lower capacity, and a 2.4% improvement in fuel burn per ASK from the higher utilization of our next-generation fleet. |
| § | Salaries and benefits increased 21.3% compared to 2Q25, driven by strategic and temporary investments in crew retention, hiring and training to support future operations and 5% union increase in salaries as a result of collective bargaining agreements with unions applicable to all airline employees in Brazil. |
| § | Depreciation and amortization reduced 12.3% or R$93.6 million, primarily due to the 8.0% reduction in right-of-use assets following the lease modifications negotiated during the restructuring, partially offset by the larger E2 fleet compared to 2Q25 as part of our ongoing fleet transformation. |
| § | Other rent & ACMI reduced R$13.0 million compared to 2Q25, mainly due to lower spare engine rent following the restructuring process. |
| § | Airport fees reduced 8.9% or R$28.2 million driven by the shift to a lower capacity growth strategy, with the 12.8% reduction in departures in 2Q26. |
| 5 |
| | Second Quarter Results 2026 |
| § | Traffic and customer servicing reduced 9.1% or R$22.8 million, primarily due to the 9.1% reduction on passengers. |
| § | Sales and marketing increased R$105.7 million, mainly reflecting higher incentive costs associated with increased fares and stronger logistics revenue performance, which grew 16.1% and contributed to higher commissions. |
| § | Maintenance and repairs increased 9.9% compared to 2Q25, mainly due to the higher maintenance events in the period, partially offset by the 10.9% appreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar. |
| § | Other reduced R$38.2 million, mainly due to reduction in legal claims related to irregular operations, due to an improved operating performance in 2026, partially offset by a 4.6% annual inflation. |

¹ Managerial View reclassifications set forth above represent presentation-only changes within income statement and cash flow statement line items and do not affect Azul’s financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Managerial View is presented with the objective of facilitating the understanding of the underlying operations in relation to the reclassifications presented above. Azul’s IFRS consolidated financial statements remain the sole basis for statutory reporting. The Managerial View line items are derived exclusively from Azul’s IFRS consolidated financial statements and are constructed through a defined set of operational reclassifications.
² Non-cash EBITDA items include: R$19.6 million in share-based incentive and R$3.2 million in write-off related to aircraft rejects in the restructuring.
Reclassifications
| § | Advances: managerial view separates out advances in credit card receivables from normal-course changes in accounts receivable for improved investor visibility. |
| § | Leases: managerial view incorporates the interest component of both operating and finance lease payments as well as the principal component of finance lease payments, in addition to any security deposits paid in the quarter. |
| § | Capex: managerial view moves capex items recognized in financing activities (financed capex) and in working capital (such as maintenance reserves and pre-payments to suppliers) into the capex line. |

| | Second Quarter Results 2026 |
Non-recurring items impacting EBITDA in the period totaled R$281.5 million. Of this amount, R$22.8 million was non-cash EBITDA related items and were related to share-based incentive and write-off related to aircraft rejected as a result of the comprehensive restructuring while R$221.0 million was paid in the period and is related to advisors’ fees and other deferrals in connection to our restructuring and R$37.7 million was adjusted against working capital. Please see page 7 for detailed information on each non-recurring item adjusting EBITDA in the period.
Non-recurring items that do not impact EBITDA in the period totaled R$573.5 million:
| § | Change in Working Capital in Managerial View was adjusted by R$338.6 million in 2Q26, mainly due to out-of-period amounts that were negotiated to be rolled over and paid in this quarter, including government tax settlement and amounts paid in the quarter for other suppliers from previous periods that were negotiated to be paid this quarter. |
| § | Capex: Azul paid R$155.0 million of deferred capitalized maintenance in 2Q26 for services that were completed in prior periods and were negotiated to be postponed. |
| § | Leases: Azul made R$79.9 million in deferred rent payments during 2Q26, related to prior forbearance agreements with lessors, finalized once both parties completed the restructuring of the Company’s lease terms. |
Liquidity and Financing
Azul ended the second quarter with Immediate Liquidity of R$3.7 billion, representing 16.6% of our LTM revenues. In the quarter, we paid R$794.5 million in non-recurring items related to our restructuring process. In June, Azul raised R$330 million through Brazil's a short-term government-backed credit program for the airline industry, approved by the CMN in May 2026, reinforcing the Company's liquidity and financial flexibility.
Accounts receivable grew 41.5%, or R$700.9 million, compared to June 30, 2025, driven mainly by a deliberate strategic decision to not advance the totality of available credit card receivables. In Brazil, these receivables are predominantly tied to tickets already flown, eliminating cardholder credit risk and allowing for immediate access to funds without holdbacks. This structure provides Azul with significant liquidity flexibility, as receivables can be advanced at minimal cost when needed.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company holds a credit card receivables balance of R$1,456.7 million (R$683.1 million as of June 30, 2025).

¹ Excludes approximately R$303 million in pre delivery payment obligations due in 3Q26, which will be extinguished once the aircraft are acquired by the lessor.
Compared to 1Q26, gross debt increased 3.7% or R$773.4 million to R$21,415.9 million, primarily driven by the R$330 million drawn under the short-term government-backed credit program for the airline industry in June and higher lease liabilities resulting from the addition of two A330 and one E2 aircraft to the fleet.
