LATAM RAISES 2023 GUIDANCE TO US$2.35-2.5B ADJUSTED EBITDAR AND DOUBLE-DIGIT MARGIN FOR FY 2023 ON THE BACK OF STRONG SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Santiago, Chile, August 2, 2023 – LATAM Airlines Group S.A. (SSE: LTM), announced today its consolidated financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2023. “LATAM” or “the Company” makes reference to the consolidated entity, which includes its passenger and cargo affiliated airlines in Latin America. LATAM prepares its financial statements under IFRS as issued by the IASB, however, for ease of presentation and comparison, the Income Statement in this report is presented in an adapted US Format. On some occasions, adjustments to these Income Statement figures are made for Special Items. A table reconciling these figures adjusted for Special Items to their as-reported IFRS figures can be found at the end of the report. All figures in this report are expressed in U.S. dollars. Percentages and certain U.S. dollar, Chilean peso and Brazilian real amounts contained in this report have been rounded for ease of presentation. Any discrepancies in any table between totals and the sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding. The Brazilian real / U.S. dollar average exchange rate for the quarter was BRL 4.95 per USD.
HIGHLIGHTS
During the second quarter of 2023, the group’s passenger operations increased 28.4% compared to the same quarter of 2022. LATAM reported an adjusted operating income of US$271 million and an adjusted operating margin of 10.1%. Total revenues reached US$2,676 million and increased US$450 million compared to the same period of last year. LATAM presented a net income attributable to the owners of the company of US$145 million. Liquidity and leverage position continue to improve on a quarter-over-quarter basis resulting in adjusted leverage of 2.4x and liquidity of US$2.6 billion.
| ● | During the second quarter, the group’s consolidated operations (measured in ASKs) increased 28.4% compared to the same quarter of 2022 (93.2% of 2019). International operations (long haul and regional operations of various affiliates), which have had a slower recovery compared to the affiliate’s domestic operations, increased 48.4% compared to 2022 in terms of capacity and reached 80.5% of 2019 levels. LATAM Airlines Brazil’s domestic operations increased 18.0% compared to 2022, while the Domestic Spanish-Speaking Countries (domestic operations of the affiliates in Colombia, Chile, Peru and Ecuador), increased in total 6.5% compared to last year. |
| ● | Total operating revenues (including other income from operating activities) amounted to US$2,676 million (+20.2% vs 2022) and reached US$5,482 (+31.0% vs 2022) for the first half of the year. Passenger revenues increased 32.9% explained by the strong passenger demand environment and the recovery of international operations, while cargo revenues decreased 23.2% explained by the continued softening of cargo yields. Adjusted operating expenses were US$2,405 million during the quarter (+2.8% vs 2022) and for the first six months of the year amounted to US$4,915 million (+12.6% vs 2022). Strong passenger demand and the decrease in jet fuel prices, despite weakening cargo demand, enabled LATAM to achieve an adjusted operating margin of 10.1% for the quarter and 10.3% for the first half of the year. Adjusted EBITDAR amounted to US$559 million during the quarter and US$1,132 million for the first six months of the year. |
| ● | During the quarter, passenger CASK ex fuel was US$4.3 cents, posting a 10.4% decrease compared to the same period of 2022, and a 7.5% increase vs the first quarter of the year, partially explained by currency appreciations. |
| ● | LATAM reported a net income attributable to the owners of the company of US$145 million in the period, driven by higher passenger revenues and lower fuel prices during the quarter. For the year-to-date period, LATAM Airlines recorded a net income attributable to the owners of the company of US$267 million. |
| ● | During the quarter, the group generated US$110 million in cash, increasing liquidity to US$2.6 billion. Liquidity as a percentage of revenues of last twelve months reached 24.3%. |

| ● | Based on its strong performance, LATAM is updating its guidance, in particular with regard to operating margin, EBITDAR, leverage and liquidity indicators, having incorporated the results of the first half of 2023 and a positive demand outlook. Full year adjusted operating margin is expected to be 10-11% with adjusted EBITDAR of US$2.35 billion – US$2.5 billion and an end of year adjusted net leverage of 2.4x – 2.5x. |
| ● | LATAM’s focus on customer experience was recognized once again by Skytrax World Airline Awards, for the fourth consecutive year LATAM group was recognized as the Best Airline in South America and for the second consecutive year LATAM group was distinguished as “Best Seat Comfort in South America” and “Best Catering in South America” of the APEX Passengers Choice Awards. These awards reflects the group’s ongoing commitment to improving its passengers’ travel experience. |
MANAGEMENT COMMENTS SECOND QUARTER 2023
The second quarter results are a clear demonstration of LATAM group, post restructuring, which has an ever-strengthened network, a leading value proposition for customers, diversified revenue streams, competitive cost structure and a strong balance sheet. On June 29, LATAM’s Chapter 11 case file was officially closed by the US Bankruptcy Court, following the execution of the Final Decree Order by the Honorable James L. Garrity, Jr.
In the second quarter, the group presented a double-digit adjusted operating margin, a record second quarter result. LATAM posted an adjusted EBITDAR of US$1,132 million for the first half of the year, the best result in LATAM´s history for a first-half result, and continued increasing its liquidity and reducing the group’s net debt, reflecting LATAM’s strong business and financial profile. Additionally, LATAM reported solid cash generation of US$110 million during the quarter.
“LATAM has been working systematically and with a long-term focus. Our financial results are the result of the combination of an effective business strategy, an attractive value proposition for customers, cost discipline, a robust network in the region, a globally-leading punctuality worldwide, and a solid balance sheet,” said Roberto Alvo, CEO of LATAM Airlines Group.
The quarter was particularly active with regard to network expansion. LATAM Airlines Peru announced new routes, such as Lima-Aruba and Lima-Caracas. Within the JVA scope with Delta, three new routes (Medellin-Miami, Lima-Atlanta and Cartagena-Atlanta) and a second daily flight between Bogota and Atlanta were announced in the quarter, expanding the airlines’ networks and providing better connectivity between North and South America. In total, six new routes have been announced within the scope of the JV. Furthermore, LATAM Airlines Brazil announced a new interline agreement with South African carrier Airlink and these new routes under the interline agreement will be available on September 2nd, the date when LATAM Airlines Brazil will resume its service to Johannesburg from Sao Paulo. Under this new agreement, passengers will have access to more than 40 destinations across Africa.
In March, LATAM Airlines Colombia added 5 aircraft to the Colombian market and increased its capacity by approximately 20%. As a result, the Colombian affiliate reached a domestic market share of 33% in this quarter and it was recently announced that LATAM Airlines Colombia was allocated slots in the Bogotá El Dorado Airport for the winter season replacing those temporarily assigned in March allowing the affiliate to maintain its increased capacity.
During the second quarter, the cargo affiliates announced two new cargo routes, Miami-Guayaquil and Miami-San Jose Dos Campos, strengthening the Miami cargo hub and expanding the cargo network of the group. Although the cargo demand has softened compared to the previous year, during the Mother’s Day season, the group led the transportation of flowers from Colombia and Ecuador to the United States, transporting 19,800 tons. The cargo affiliates are the region’s leaders in the transportation of flowers thanks to the addition of a new converted cargo freighter. Additionally, cargo has recorded historic highs in customer satisfaction from its customers, driven by customer service improvements and network size growth.

Related to LATAM’s sustainability strategy, in the second quarter of the year, LATAM reached an 88% reduction of single-use plastic in onboard passenger services and 82% reduction in the group’s total operation. LATAM group is committed to its 100% reduction goal by the end of this year. Thanks to the sustainability projects to reach zero waste to landfill by 2027 the group was recognized as the most sustainable airline in service on board by the Onboard Hospitality Awards 2023. Notably, LATAM cargo was distinguished by IATA as the winner of the Air Cargo Innovation Award for its plastic reduction projects in its cargo operations in Chile and Brazil. The initiatives were designed by employees of the cargo affiliates and are part of the group’s commitment to achieve zero waste to landfill by 2027.
LATAM Airlines Colombia announced the partnership with Bio-D, one of the main companies in Colombia leading the search for sustainable energy solutions, which seeks to develop enabling conditions for SAF production in the region through the exchange of best practices, information and technical knowledge. Also related to sustainable fuel, LATAM group in partnership with Kuehne + Nagel and Elite Flowers, purchased over 25,000 liters of SAF, to reduce the emissions equivalent of a Bogotá - Miami Cargo flight.
Finally, during April, LATAM group started the program “1+1 offset to conserve”. This program offers LATAM group’s passengers the possibility to help protect and conserve iconic ecosystems of our region and their biodiversity. For every ton of CO2 that is compensated by the customers, the group compensates the same amount, doubling the impact.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF SECOND QUARTER 2023 RESULTS
LATAM group reported total operating revenues of US$2,676 million in the second quarter, an increase of 20.2% compared to 2Q22, mainly explained by a 32.9% increase in passenger revenues, despite weaker cargo revenues, which decreased by 23.2%.
Total revenues for the first half of 2023 reached US$5,482 million compared to US$4,185 million in the same period of 2022. The 31.0% increase is explained by a 46.0% increase in passenger revenues, offsetting an 18.0% decrease in cargo revenues. Passenger and cargo revenues accounted for 85.2% and 13.4% of total operating revenues, respectively, for the first half of 2023.
Passenger revenues amounted to US$2,278 million in the second quarter, increasing 32.9% versus the same period of 2022, explained by an increase of 28.4% in operations, especially driven by the continued recovery of international operations, accompanied by a context marked by healthy demand and yields. During the period, passenger demand (measured in RPKs) increased 28.6% and passenger yields grew 3.3% versus 2022. During the quarter, LATAM group reached a solid consolidated load factor of 80.4% (+0.2 p.p. versus 2022). In the second quarter, the group’s RASK reached US$7.0 cents, showing an increase of 3.5% compared to the same period of last year explained by the strong demand and yields environment.
Cargo revenues decreased 23.2% compared to the second quarter of 2022, totaling US$355 million, explained by the softening in cargo yields due to an increased capacity and decreased south-bound demand to South America. Despite the above, cargo revenues compared to the same period of 2019 outperformed it by 32%. Cargo yields were US$40 cents, and despite the structural softening of the business, were still situated 26.2% over 2019 levels.
3
Other income amounted to US$43 million, decreasing 13.4% versus the previous year, mainly due to the cessation of certain compensation payments from Delta Air Lines as agreed upon in the signing of the Joint Venture Agreement in 2019.
Total adjusted operating expenses were US$2,405 million, showing a 2.8% increase versus the previous year, mainly explained by the increase in passenger operations, exchange rate variations and inflationary pressure, and offset by the decrease of aircraft fuel expense and the implementation of cost saving initiatives cross all the functions. In terms of capacity, the group increased its passenger operation by 28.4% (measured in ASKs) compared to the same quarter of 2022. Average fuel price (excluding hedges) during the quarter decreased 29% versus the previous year. In the quarter, the group reported a passenger CASK ex-fuel of US$4.3 cents, posting a 10.4% decrease compared to the same period of 2022, and a 7.5% increase vs the first quarter of the year, which was driven partially by the appreciation of the Brazilian real.
The changes in adjusted operating expenses during the quarter were mainly explained by:
| ● | Wages and benefits increased 23.8% versus the same period of 2022, in part explained by a 10.9% increase in the average headcount of the group (pilots and cabin crew increased 15.7% vs the previous year). Additionally, this increase in wages and benefits cost was impacted by inflation-linked salary variations. |
| ● | Aircraft fuel costs decreased 10.4% compared to the second quarter of 2022, explained by the decrease in jet fuel prices, despite the increase in fuel consumption. During the quarter, average fuel price (excluding hedges) noted a 29% decrease versus the same period of 2022. LATAM recognized a loss of US$15.3 million related to hedging contracts, which compares to a gain of US$11.9 million during the same period of 2022. |
| ● | Commissions to agents increased 21.4% versus 2022, associated with the increase in sales and operations, and the recovery of the international segment. |
| ● | Depreciation and amortization increased 1.4% versus 2022, mainly explained by arrival of new Airbus A320 aircraft and offset by an increase in aircraft utilization. |
| ● | Other rental and landing fees increased by 24.9% compared to 2022, in line with the operational increase and the recovery of international operations. |
| ● | Passenger services expenses totaled US$65 million, increasing 77.0% versus the same period of 2022, explained by the important increase in international operations and the resumption of onboard catering services this year, compared to the previous year in which there were still certain COVID-19 related restrictions in place. |
| ● | Aircraft rentals expenses, which correspond to LATAM group’s fleet power-by-the-hour (PBH) contracts, amounted to US$23 million, representing a 68.2% decrease versus 2Q22, following the expiry of all PBH contracts for the narrow body fleet during the second quarter of 2022. This expense is considered a special item since there is a non-cash double counting of fleet PBH in Aircraft Rentals and in the Depreciation & Amortization line, and therefore has been adjusted for in the adjusted financial figures. PBH contracts will continue to be in place in 2023 as certain wide-body fleet contracts remain in effect until 2024. These variable payment agreements were implemented following their approval by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in context of Chapter 11 proceedings during the second and third quarters of 20211. |
| ● | Aircraft maintenance expenses totaled US$153 million, corresponding to a 5.6% increase versus 2022, mainly explained by higher unit costs due to global inflationary pressures and an increase in the group’s operation. |
| ● | Other operating expenses decreased 5.1% compared to 2022 to US$320 million. Explained by certain one-offs recorded in the second quarter of 2022, driven by operation in 2022. |
| 1 | Beginning in the second quarter of 2021, LATAM amended its Aircraft Lease contracts, which included lease payment based on Power by the Hour (PBH) at the beginning of the contract and then switches to fixed-rent payments. A right of use asset and a lease liability was recognized as result of those amendments at the date of modification of the contract, even if they initially have a variable payment period. As a result of the application of the lease accounting policy, the right of use assets continues to be amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease from the contract modification date. The expenses for the period include both: the lease expense for variable payments (Aircraft Rentals) as well as the expenses resulting from the amortization of the right of use assets from the beginning of the contract (included in the Depreciation line) and interest from the lease liability (included in Lease Liabilities). |

Non-operating Result
| ● | Interest income amounted to US$45 million in the quarter, representing a US$40 million increase from the same period of 2022. This was explained by the increase in cash levels and interest rates. |
| ● | Interest expense decreased 16.4% versus 2022, to US$173 million during the quarter, mainly due to the significant reduction in the group’s financial debt after LATAM’s exit from Chapter 11. |
| ● | Other income (expense) registered a US$46 million expense during the quarter. This was mainly explained by foreign currency corrections. |
| ● | Net income attributable to the owners of the parent company during the quarter was US$145 million. |
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING
In the second quarter, LATAM generated US$110 million in cash, effectively increasing liquidity to US$2.6 billion, comprised by US$1.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents, in addition to US$1.1 billion in available and fully undrawn revolving credit facilities (“RCF”). Liquidity as a percentage of revenues of last twelve months reached 24.3%.
LATAM registered a financial debt of US$4.1 billion (-2.4% versus the previous quarter), while gross debt (financial debt and lease liabilities) was US$6.4 billion and posted a net financial debt of US$4.9 billion. At the end of the period, LATAM reported adjusted leverage (net financial debt/ Adj. EBITDAR) of 2.4x, demonstrating the strong capital structure of the group after the reorganization process, and the operational robustness of LATAM.
With respect to LATAM’s fuel hedging policy, its main objective is to protect against medium-term liquidity risk from fuel price increases, while benefiting from fuel price reductions. Accordingly, LATAM hedges a portion of its estimated fuel consumption. Hedge positions per quarter for the next months, as of June 30, 2023, are shown in the table below:

Reconciliation of Reported Amounts to Non-GAAP Items (in thousands of US Dollars)
LATAM Airlines Group S.A. (“LATAM” or “the Company”) prepares its financial statements under “International Financial Reporting Standards” (“IFRS”) as issued by the IASB, however, for ease of presentation and comparison, the Income Statement in this report is presented in an Adapted by Nature Format. On some occasions, adjustments to these Income Statement figures are made for Special Items. These adjustments to include or exclude special items allows management an additional tool to understand and analyze its core operating performance and allow for more meaningful comparison in the industry. Therefore, LATAM believes these non-GAAP financial measures, derived from the consolidated financial statements but not presented in accordance with IFRS, may provide useful information to investors and others. In this table, you can find a reconciliation of the IFRS and the Adapted by Nature Format as LATAM reports its Income Statement in this earnings release for ease of comparison and further disclosure, as well as the adjustments made for Special Items.
These non-GAAP items may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP items of other companies and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.
The tables below show these reconciliations:
