Copa Holdings Reports Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2020

PANAMA CITY, Aug. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Copa Holdings, S.A. (NYSE: CPA), today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2020 (2Q20). 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 second quarter of 2019 (2Q19).

Due to air travel restrictions implemented in response to the Covid-19 outbreak, the Company did not provide scheduled commercial service during the second quarter, and only operated a small number of charter and humanitarian flights, representing less than 1% of the Company´s capacity in 2Q19.  Therefore, this earnings release will focus on the financial results and metrics that are relevant in these circumstances and will omit certain financial ratios, unit metrics and operational indicators that are usually provided, since these are either not measurable or applicable on such a limited operational base.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Copa Holdings reported a net loss of US$386.0 million or (US$9.08) per share.  Excluding special items, the Company would have reported a net loss of US$114.6 million, or (US$2.70) per share.
  • Special items for the quarter include a US$186.8 million non-cash impairment charge on the B737-700 fleet as a result of the Company´s announcement to sell those aircraft, a US$50.0 million loss expected on assets held for sale (Embraer aircraft, spare engines, spare parts and a simulator), a US$22.2 million unrealized loss on the mark-to-market of the convertible notes, and a US$12.3 million reversal for unredeemed tickets revenue provisions recorded in the first quarter, given the uncertainty of future passenger behavior due to the Covid-19 situation.
  • Copa Holdings reported an operating loss of US$357.9 million.  Excluding special items, the Company would have reported an operating loss of US$108.7 million.
  • Cash burn, defined as the cash disbursements less proceeds excluding extraordinary financing activities, averaged US$77 million per month during the quarter.
  • In April, the Company raised US$343 million in cash through a senior convertible note offering.  Cash, short-term and long-term investments totaled US$1.14 billion at the end of the quarter.
  • The Company entered into new committed, unsecured credit facilities of an additional US$150 million (currently undrawn) and closed the quarter with US$1.29 billion of available liquidity.
  • The Company repaid US$95 million in short-term lines of credit, closing the quarter with a total debt of US$1.3 billion.
  • Copa Holdings ended the quarter with a consolidated fleet of 102 aircraft – 6 Boeing 737MAX9s, 68 Boeing 737-800s, 14 Boeing 737-700s, and 14 Embraer-190s.

Subsequent Events

  • During the month of July, the Company closed a secured revolving credit facility for an initial aggregate amount of US$105 million.  Including this facility, the Company now has US$255 million in unutilized committed credit facilities.
  • On July 17th, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Panamanian government announced the extension of air travel restrictions until August 21st, 2020. The company has now scheduled the restart of its regular commercial flights for September 4th, 2020.
  • On July 31st, the Company signed a US$79.1 million contract for the sale of its remaining 14 EMB-190s, 6 spare engines and spare parts, and expects to deliver these assets over the next 12 months.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURE RECONCILIATION
