OPERATING & FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS | |
On April 9, 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of VRG for a total consideration of R$558.7mm (US$282.5mm), consisting of R$194.1mm paid in cash, net of cash acquired, and R$357.2mm in non-voting shares. Consolidated results for the
quarter include those of VRG as of April 9, 2007, the date the Company assumed control of VRG. |
||
Consolidated net loss for the quarter was R$35.4mm (US$18.3mm), representing a -3.1% net margin. Loss per share (EPS) was R$0.18 and loss per ADS was US$0.09. Losses were driven by the incorporation of VRGs results, sub-optimal yields in the
domestic market, unpredictable delays and unplanned cancellations, and also an intense press coverage, which reduced load factors. |
||
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled R$1.8bn, a decrease of R$203.2mm over 1Q07. |
||
Consolidated operating cost per ASK (CASK) decreased 6.2% from 15.03 cents (R$) in 2Q06 to 14.10 cents (R$) in 2Q07. Non-fuel CASK decreased 6.2%
to 8.5 cents (R$) mainly due to lower selling expenses per ASK and aircraft rent per ASK. VRGs CASK was reduced by approximately 17% during intra-quarter. |
||
Consolidated RPKs increased 64.6% from 3,523mm in 2Q06 to 5,800mm in 2Q07 and ASKs increased 86.1% from 4,741mm in 2Q06 to 8,824mm in 2Q07. Consolidated average load factor decreased 8.6 percentage points to 65.7% . GTAs RPKs increased 40.8%
from 3,523mm in 2Q06 to 4,959mm in 2Q07 and ASKs increased 52.2% from 4,741mm in 2Q06 to 7,215mm in 2Q07. GTAs average load factor decreased 5.6 percentage points to 68.7% . VRGs RPKs were 842mm in 2Q07 and ASKs were 1,609mm. VRGs
average load factor was 52.3% . |
- 1 / 23 -
Consolidated average passenger yields decreased 19.2% to 18.04 cents (R$), resulting in a RASK of 13.05 cents (R$), a 26.7% decrease vs. 2Q06. Average fares decreased 11.5% from R$190.0 to R$168.2. Ancillary revenues (cargo and other) increased
84.4% to R$105.5mm in the quarter. Net revenues reached R$1.2bn, representing growth of 36.4% . GTAs average market share of domestic and international regular air transportation in 2Q07 was 39.9% and 13.5%, respectively, up from 34.0% and
4.8% in 2Q06. VRGs average market share of domestic and international regular air transportation in 2Q07 was 3.8% and 10.7%, respectively. |
|
GTAs on-time arrivals and flight completion averaged, respectively, 99% and 97% (internal data)
during 2Q07. VRGs on-time arrivals and flight completion averaged, respectively, 90% and 91% (internal data) during 2Q07. GTAs passenger complaints and lost baggage per 1,000 passengers averaged 2.16 and 0.42, respectively. VRGs
passenger complaints and lost baggage per 1,000 passengers averaged 1.46 and 1.40, respectively. Sales through the GOL website represented 81.3% of total GTA sales. |
|
In 2Q07, GTA added 32 new daily flight frequencies and launched two new domestic
destinations: Marabá and Cruzeiro do Sul, both in Brazils North region. With the addition of these two cities, GTA now serves 58 destinations. VRG added 16 new daily flight frequencies -- including one daily flight from Rio de Janeiro
to Frankfurt -- serving 16 different destinations. In total, GTA and VRG now serve 62 different destinations, the largest of any Brazilian airline group. |
|
Two Boeing 737-800 NG aircraft were added to the GTA fleet during 2Q07, increasing the total fleet to 69 aircraft. One Boeing 767-300 aircraft was added to the VRG fleet during 2Q07, increasing the total fleet to 19 aircraft. Five new 737-800 NGs
will join the GTA fleet during 3Q07; two 737-800s and two 767-300s will join the VRG fleet in 3Q07. |
|
In June 2007, GOL finalized agreements with two of North Americas most important airlines: Continental Airlines and Delta Airlines. Passengers flying with the two airlines are now able to purchase tickets on all routes served by GOL for
connections in Brazil and South America. GOL should benefit from increased load factors and related revenue. |
|
A net quarterly interest on shareholders equity and dividend payment of R$70.8mm (R$ 0.35 net per share and US$0.18 net per ADS) was approved at the June 14, 2007, Board Meeting and was paid on August 3, 2007, as interest on shareholders
equity and dividends to shareholders of record as of June 25, 2007. |
|
GOLs shares presented average daily trading volumes of US$41.8mm (R$83.0mm) during 2Q07, making GOL one of the most liquid stocks among airlines globally and among Brazilian public companies. GOL ADRs had an average daily trading volume of
US$24.0mm during 2Q07, as compared to US$31.0mm in 2Q06. GOLs PN shares had an average daily trading volume of R$35.3mm in 2Q07, compared to R$10.3mm in 2Q06. |
|
In April 2007, GOL was awarded the Latin American Deal of the Year from AirFinance Journal, the leading financial magazine serving the commercial aviation industry, for its 2006 perpetual bond offering. The offering raised US$200mm in capital, which will be used to partially finance a portion of the Companys fleet expansion plan. |

MANAGEMENTS COMMENTS ON 2Q07 RESULTS |
The second quarter of 2007 presented us with opportunities and challenges, which we expect will result in positive changes to Brazils air transportation industry. The second quarter presented a number of opportunities to continue GOLs strong growth, including the acquisition of VRG, the company operating the VARIG trade name.
During the second quarter of 2007, GOL completed its acquisition of VRG, improved VRGs operational efficiency and reduced its costs. GOLs best management practices and proven low-cost strategies, which have changed industry standards in Brazil, are being implemented at VRG. Since we began operations in 2001, we have demonstrated market leadership and become a world reference in our industry. We are bringing our revolutionary spirit to the long-haul market, in much the same way we have been changing how Brazilians and South Americans fly for the last six years, said Constantino de Oliveira Junior, GOLs President and CEO.
Problems with the coordination of the Brazilian air transportation system, combined with inclement weather which resulted in temporary airport closings, generated unacceptable flight delays and cancellations for customers. Congonhas airport, GOLs third busiest airport and the busiest airport in Brazil, was the most affected as the main runway was temporarily closed for maintenance work from May 14 to June 29, 2007. Consequently, Brazilian authorities reduced daily operations and traffic at this airport. As GOLs top priority is safety and quality of passenger service, the route network was adjusted and some connecting flights operated from Congonhas were shifted to the Guarulhos airport.
The recent air traffic re-alignment in the city of São Paulo, South Americas largest city and most important economic center, affects all airlines in Brazil. GOL is working with the government to resolve the problems and quickly return the Brazilian air transportation industry to regular and efficient standards of operation. We believe that the current measures will bring needed change and additional investment to the industrys infrastructure and we would like to reassure passengers that GOL is doing everything possible to guarantee safety and good service to all customers, added CEO Oliveira.
As highlighted above, results in the second quarter of 2007 were impacted by the inclusion of VRGs results, unpredictable delays and demand-suppressing cancellations, which put pressure on both yields and load factors. Passengers transported in 2Q07 increased 45.2% over 2Q06. Consolidated load factor decreased 8.6 percentage points to 65.7%, partially due to seasonal effects experienced in the second quarter. Even in this challenging environment, GOL maintained high aircraft utilization rates while further reducing costs and maintaining market cost leadership. Aircraft utilization was at 14.1 block hours per day (a 1.4% increase over 2Q06).
Operating costs per ASK, excluding fuel, decreased approximately 6.2% to 8.48 cents (R$). Fuel costs per available seat kilometer (ASK) decreased 6.2% year-over-year and helped to decrease total operating cost per seat kilometer (CASK) by 6.2% to 14.10 cents (R$). Cost reductions per ASK were also driven by lower selling expenses and lower aircraft rent expenses, partially offset by lower productivity due to flight delays. Our demonstrated ability to grow while continuing to reduce costs is a key success factor as we implement best practices into VRGs operations, modernizing and standardizing the fleet, rejuvenating an 80-year old brand, and streamlining operating and administrative costs, added Richard Lark, GOLs Executive Vice President and CFO. The acquisition of VRG is exceeding the Companys expectations. In terms of future perspectives, short and medium-term growth will be driven by the addition of new aircraft, new destinations and new frequencies. The addition of five
- 4 / 23 -
Boeing 737-800 NG aircraft to the GTA fleet and the addition of two Boeing 737-800s plus two Boeing 767s to the VRG fleet in the third quarter of 2007 will increase 3Q07 ASKs by approximately 85%, as compared to GOLs capacity in the same quarter of 2006.
GOL remains committed to its strategy of profitable expansion based on a low-cost structure and high quality customer service. We are very proud that 66 million passengers have chosen to fly GOL, and we continue to make every effort to offer our customers the best in air travel: new, modern aircraft, frequent flights in major markets, an ever-expanding integrated route system and the lowest fares; all of which is made possible by our dedicated team of employees who are the key to our success," stated CEO Oliveira. By remaining focused on our low-cost business model, while continuing to grow, innovate and provide the highest quality service through both GOL and VRG, we will continue to create value for our customers, employees and shareholders.
REVENUES |
Net operating consolidated revenues, principally revenues from passenger transportation, increased 36.4% to R$1.2bn, primarily due to an 86.1% increase in capacity and the incorporation of VRG revenues, which generated 64.6% more revenue passenger kilometers (RPK), offset by lower yields and load factors. GTAs net revenues increased 14.2% to R$1.0bn. Seasonal effects contributed to a load factor reduction during a historically low-demand quarter in Brazils domestic air transportation market. VRGs revenues totaled R$191.5mm. In 2Q07, GOLs consolidated RPK growth was driven by a 56.3% increase in departures and 19.2% increase in stage length, offset by an 8.6 percentage point decrease in load factor to 65.7% . Consolidated RPKs grew 64.6% to 5,800mm and revenue passengers grew 45.2% to 6.2mm.
Average fares decreased 11.5% from R$190.0 to R$168.2 and yields decreased 19.2% to 18.0 cents (R$) per passenger kilometer, mainly due to a 19.2% increase in aircraft stage length. Consolidated operating revenues per ASK (RASK) decreased 26.7% to R$13.1 cents in 2Q07 (compared to R$17.8 cents in 2Q06).
The 86.1% year-over-year capacity expansion, represented by ASKs, facilitated the addition of 32 new daily flight frequencies (including six night flights) and two new domestic destinations for GTA in 2Q07, as well as 16 new daily flight frequencies for VRG. The addition of 40.2 average operating aircraft compared to 2Q06 (from 47.2 to 87.4 average aircraft) drove the ASK increase. GTAs domestic market share averaged 40% and VRGs averaged 4% during the quarter. Through its regular international flights to Buenos Aires, Cordoba and Rosario (Argentina), Santa Cruz de la Sierra (Bolivia), Montevideo (Uruguay), Asuncion (Paraguay), Santiago (Chile) and Lima (Peru), GTA achieved a sharp increase in year-over-year international market share to 14% (share of Brazilian airlines flying to international destinations) in the same period. VRGs international market share through its regular flights to Buenos Aires (Argentina), Bogota (Colombia), Caracas (Venezuela), and Frankfurt (Germany) was 11%. Approximately 16.5% of GOLs consolidated RPKs were related to international passenger traffic in 2Q07.
Complementing net operating revenues, cargo transportation activities primarily contributed to the expansion of other operating revenues, increasing from R$57.2mm to R$105.5mm.

OPERATING EXPENSES |
Total consolidated CASK decreased 6.2% to 14.10 cents (R$), due to lower selling expenses, a reduction in fuel prices and lower aircraft rent expenses per ASK, partially offset by lower productivity in the quarter due to delays and bottlenecks in the Brazilian air transportation system. Operating expenses per ASK excluding fuel decreased by 6.2% to 8.48 cents (R$). Total operating expenses increased 74.9%, reaching R$1,245.0mm, due to higher fuel expenses, increased air traffic servicing expenses, higher maintenance expenses and the expansion of our operations (fleet and employee expansion and a higher volume of landing fees). The R$212.4mm increase in fuel expenses was due to an increase in fuel consumption and partially offset by lower fuel prices per liter in 2Q07. Breakeven load factor increased 8.3 percentage points to 71.0% vs. 62.7% in 2Q06.
Results from GOLs operating expense (jet fuel price and USD exchange rate) hedging programs are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 133 (Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No 133), Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities.
The breakdown of our costs and operational expenses for 2Q07, 2Q06 and 1Q07 is as follows:

Aircraft fuel expenses per ASK decreased 6.2% over 2Q06 to 5.62 cents (R$), mainly due to lower fuel price per liter and a proportionally more fuel efficient fleet (additional larger, winglet-equipped 737-800 SFP aircraft in the fleet, partially offset by an increase fuel consumption due to increase in flight hours related to airport bottlenecks). The decrease in average fuel price per liter over 2Q06 was primarily due to a 7.8% decrease of international crude oil (WTI) prices and a 1.8% decrease in Gulf Coast jet fuel prices, in addition to the 9.6% Brazilian Real appreciation against the U.S. Dollar (factors influencing the determination of Brazilian jet fuel prices). The Company has hedged approximately 41%, 25%, 10% and 10% of its fuel requirements for 3Q07, 4Q07, 1Q08 and 2Q08, respectively.
Salaries, wages and benefits expenses per available seat kilometer (ASK) increased 6.3% to 2.02 cents (R$) in 2Q07 -- primarily due to a 5% cost of living increase on salaries in December 2006 and a 84.2% increase in the number of full-time equivalent employees to 13,313 -- related to planned 2Q07 and 3Q07 capacity expansion, internalization of call center employees and lower productivity due to increased man hours due to flight delays in the quarter.
Aircraft rent per ASK decreased 0.6% to 1.54 cents (R$) in 2Q07, primarily due to a high aircraft utilization rate (14.1 block hours per day and 4.7% more ASKs per aircraft), a 9.6% appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar vs. 2Q06, and amortized gains on sale-leaseback transactions of eight 737-800 aircraft during 2Q07 (amortized over the term of the leases).
Sales and marketing expenses per ASK decreased 55.7% to 0.97 cents (R$) due primarily to a reduction in sales commissions due to reductions in travel agency commissions effected in January of this year, a reduction in publicity and advertising expenses, and a higher aircraft utilization rate (4.7% more ASKs per aircraft). During the quarter, GOL booked a majority of its ticket sales through a combination of its website (81.3%) and its call center (10.8%) .
Landing fees per ASK increased 19.4% to 0.80 cents (R$), due to a 21% increase in landing tariffs effected June 2006 and an increase in landings at international airports (with higher tariffs), partially offset by a 19.2% increase in average stage length and a higher aircraft utilization rate (4.7% more ASKs per aircraft).
Aircraft and traffic servicing expenses per ASK increased 31.4% to 1.13 cents (R$), mainly due to higher ground handling services expenses (landings increased 60.9%) and increases in consulting and technology services, partially offset by an increased average stage length and a higher aircraft utilization rate (14.1 block hours per day and 4.7% more ASKs per aircraft).
Maintenance, materials and repairs per ASK increased 20.8% to 0.87 cents (R$), primarily due to a higher number of scheduled maintenance services during 2Q07, partially offset by a 9.6% appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar. Main expenses during the quarter were related to the scheduled maintenance of nine engines in the amount of R$17.7mm; the use of spare parts inventory in the amount of R$17.1mm and the repair of rotable materials in the amount of R$12.6mm.
Depreciation per ASK decreased 2.9% to 0.33 cents (R$), partially offset by a higher amount of fixed assets (mainly spare parts inventory), an increase of R$4.5mm related to depreciation of five new 737-800 NG aircraft which entered the fleet between 4Q06 and 2Q07, and two 737-700 aircraft classified as capital leases.
Other operating expenses per ASK were 0.82 cents (R$), a 1.2% increase when compared to the same period of the previous year, due to an increase in travel expenses and lodging for flight crews due to cancelled flights, direct passenger expenses and bad debt expenses. Insurance expenses were 0.15 cents (R$) per ASK (R$10.6mm total), a 5.3% increase over 2Q06.

COMMENTS ON EBITDA AND EBITDAR1 |
The impact of a 4.75 cent (R$) RASK decrease partially offset by a CASK decrease of 0.93 cents (R$), resulted in a decrease of EBITDA per available seat kilometer to -0.72 cents (R$) in 2Q07. EBITDA totaled -R$63.9mm in the period compared to R$148.2mm in 2Q06 and R$153.6mm in 1Q07.

Aircraft rent represents a significant operating expense for GOL. As GOL today leases most of its aircraft, we believe that EBITDAR, equivalent to EBITDA before aircraft rent expenses (which are USD-denominated) is a useful measure of relative operating performance for our investors and users of our financial statements. On a per ASK basis, EBITDAR was 0.82 cents (R$) in 2Q07, compared to 4.66 cents (R$) in 2Q06. EBITDAR amounted to R$72.2mm in 2Q07, compared to R$221.6mm in the same period last year and R$248.9mm in 1Q07.
_______________________
1EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and EBITDAR (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rent) are non-USGAAP measures and are presented as supplemental information
because we believe they are useful indicators of our operating performance for our investors. We usually present EBITDAR, in addition to EBITDA, because aircraft leasing represents a significant operating expense of our business, and we believe the
impact of this expense should be considered in addition to the impact of depreciation and amortization. However, neither figure should be considered in isolation, as a substitute for net income prepared in accordance with US GAAP, BR GAAP or as a
measure of a companys profitability. In addition, our calculations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

FINANCIAL RESULTS AND TAXES |
Net financial income increased R$16.4mm. Interest expense increased R$17.3mm primarily due to an increase in long-term debt and a higher amount of short-term working capital debt related to increased operations. Interest income increased R$37.0mm primarily due to a higher volume of cash and short-term investments versus 2Q06, and was partially offset by a 4.2 percentage point reduction in average Brazilian interest rates (as measured by the CDI rate).

OUTLOOK |
GOL continues to invest in its successful low-cost business model. We continue to evaluate opportunities to expand our operations by adding new flights in Brazil, as well as expanding into other high-traffic centers. We expect to benefit from economies of scale as we continue to add new aircraft to our already well-established and highly efficient operating network. We expect to reduce our non-fuel cost per available seat-kilometer (CASK) as we continue to reduce the age of our fleet, operate an even more fuel efficient fleet, benefit from the cost savings associated with our Aircraft Maintenance Facility, and improve upon our cost-efficient distribution channels. Through the VARIG trade name, VRG will provide an attractive service offering to business travelers in the domestic market and offer new services to high-traffic destinations in South America, North America and Europe.
The air passenger transportation market in Brazil remains largely under-penetrated, and increasing available seats at low fares is important for the continued development of the sector and the economy. Recent bottlenecks in the Brazilian air transport system are being addressed through network realignment and investments at Brazils major airports. Adjustments in flight networks are expected to alleviate congestion in São Paulos Congonhas Airport (responsible for 15% of the Companys consolidated passenger traffic). The scheduled addition of five aircraft to the GTA fleet in the third quarter of 2007 plus four in the VRG fleet will permit an 85% increase in available seat capacity over GOLs reported capacity in 2Q06.
For the third quarter of 2007, we expect consolidated load factors in the range of 67-69% (a two to three point increase vs. 2Q07), with consolidated passenger yields in the range of R$21-22 cents (an increase
- 12 / 23 -
of approximately 19% vs. 2Q07). For the third quarter, we expect consolidated non-fuel CASK to be in the range of R$8.0 cents. We expect that the incorporation of larger, more fuel-efficient aircraft and reductions in jet fuel prices will reduce our fuel costs per ASK by over 15% in 3Q07 in year-over-year comparison. We expect a stable foreign exchange rate environment for the near term, supported by good economic fundamentals in the Brazilian economy.
In the full year 2007, we plan to increase revenues by over 45% while reducing unit costs by more than 13%. We expect to stimulate air travel demand in the middle and lower income segments through our innovative payment mechanisms. We do not expect planned alterations in flight networks to have a negative impact on results of operations.
Financial guidance for 2007 is based on planned capacity expansion and the expected high demand for our passenger transportation services both domestically and internationally, driven by strong Brazilian economic fundamentals and demand-stimulating fares. We plan to finish the year with 103 aircraft in the combined GTA and VRG fleets. Our planned ASK increase of approximately 80% will allow us to adequately serve expected passenger demand and add new routes and markets in Brazil, South America, Europe and North America in 2007 and 2008. Average load factors for the year are expected to be in the 68-70% range. Passenger yields are expected to decrease approximately 12% in the full year 2007, primarily due to an increased stage length, and RASK in the full-year comparison is expected to decrease approximately 18%.
Our projections are for a 2007 full-year EPS in the range of R$3.00 to R$3.50, reflecting the impact of lower loads and yields. Full-year non-fuel CASK is expected to be in the R$8.0 cent range, representing a 13% reduction over 2006. Fuel costs per ASK are expected to decrease over 12% in the year, due to larger more fuel-efficient aircraft and lower fuel prices. Full-year operating margins are expected to be in the 12 to 15% range. We plan to continue to popularize air travel through expansion, technological innovation, improved operating efficiency, strict cost management, the lowest fares and high quality passenger service.
