GUADALAJARA, Mexico, April 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: PAC; BMV: GAP) (“the Company” or “GAP”) reported its consolidated results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021 (1Q21). Figures are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

COVID-19 Impact

During the first quarter of the year, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to affect the Company’s results, mainly due to the decrease in domestic and international passenger traffic compared to 1Q20. Containment steps, such as those taken by the United States government which expanded the requirement for negative COVID-19 testing for all air passengers entering the United States beginning January 26, 2021 also affected passenger traffic. As of January 7, 2021, there were similar testing requirements for air passengers traveling to Canada, and subsequently, the Canadian government suspended flights between Mexico and the Caribbean, further contributing to a decrease in passenger traffic levels compared to 1Q20.

As previously mentioned, the degree of recovery of the Company’s operations and results will depend on the duration and containment of the pandemic by the Mexican, Jamaican and U.S. governments, as the main origin-destination. Due to the nature of the pandemic, the Company cannot fully estimate the impact on its financial situation or operating results in the short, medium or long term. However, the rate of vaccination by the U.S. government may aid in a sooner than expected recovery in international traffic, mainly at the Company’s airports in tourist destinations.

Company measures during 1Q21:

• The Company continued to offer support to airlines and its commercial clients. For commercial contracts, the Company granted discounts on guaranteed minimum rental amounts in accordance with the percentage decrease in passenger traffic at each airport compared to the 1Q21, thereby maintaining the Company’s percentage of participation in revenues. With regards to the airlines, the Company continued its incentive program in accordance with the reactivation of routes and frequencies that were held prior to the pandemic.
  

• Operating cost control measures were maintained throughout most of the expense line items; however, in the 1Q21 there was an increase in the expense line items compared to the previous quarter driven by the increase in passenger traffic at each airport.
  

Impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s Financial Position:

Despite pandemic-related effects causing a significant decline in 1Q21 revenue, the Company continues generating positive EBITDA. Controlling cost of services and negotiating a decrease in concession taxes and technical assistance fees, enabled the Company to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on revenues.

During 1Q21, the Company generated a positive cash flow in operating activities, even though it was significantly lower than the cash flow for 1Q20. The Company reported a solid financial position at the close of 1Q21, cash and cash equivalents on March 31, 2021 were Ps. 14,728.4 million (a 34.2% increase as compared to 1Q20). During 1Q21, the Company completed the refinancing of the US$ 191.0 million, that were due in January and February 2021.

During 1Q21, the Company continued evaluating the possible adverse impacts of the pandemic on its financial condition and operating results. The Company also reviewed key indicators and impairment tests of significant long-term assets, expected credit losses and recovery of assets due to deferred taxes. In this evaluation, the Company reviewed financial results for the short, medium, and long term, concluding that a significant deterioration of the Company’s assets is not expected. As such, the Company does not foresee a business interruption or closing operations at any of its airports. However, the Company cannot ensure that the negative effect of the pandemic will be less in the coming quarter, nor can it ensure that local and global economic conditions will improve. The Company can also not predict the availability of financing, or what general credit conditions will be.

The Company will continue to monitor the pandemic’s adverse effects on the results of operations, including the monitoring of key indicators, impairment tests, projections, budgets, fair values, future cash flow related to the recovery of significant financial and non-financial assets, as well as possible contingencies.

During 1Q21, the Company performed a risk evaluation of accounts receivable from airlines and commercial clients in terms of liquidity. As a result, the Company is recognizing an allowance for credit losses of Ps. 23.5 million in operating costs.

The Company will continue informing the market in a timely manner regarding future material updates on airport operations and the measures adopted for preserving liquidity and going concern.

<sup>- Net income and comprehensive income per share for the 1Q21 were calculated based on 524,038,200 outstanding shares and for the 1Q20 were calculated based on 525,575,547 outstanding shares. U.S. dollar figures presented were converted from pesos to U.S. dollars at a rate of Ps. 20.4410 per U.S. dollar (the noon buying rate on March 31, 2021, as published by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board).
- For purposes of the consolidation of the Montego Bay and Kingston airports, the average three-month exchange rate of Ps. 20.3190 per U.S. dollar for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was used.</sup>

Revenues (1Q21 vs. 1Q20)

• Aeronautical services revenues decreased by Ps. 1,051.0 million, or 33.6%.
• Non-aeronautical services revenues decreased by Ps. 385.9 million, or 37.8%.
• Revenues from improvements to concession assets increased by Ps. 106.0 million, or 12.9%.
• Total revenues decreased by Ps. 1,330.8 million, or 26.8%.

• The change in aeronautical services revenues was composed primarily of the following factors:
  
  
  1. Revenues at the Company’s Mexican airports decreased by Ps. 671.3 million or 26.6% compared to 1Q20, mainly as a result of the decrease in passenger traffic of 31.7%, partially offset by the increase in maximum tariff applicable to 2021 pursuant to the adjustments to our Master Development Program as a result of the Extraordinary Review. Even though the increase approved to the maximum tariff was not reached in this quarter, it is expected to be reached by the end of 2021. As international passenger traffic picks up, the Company will be closer to the cap of the maximum tariff.
     
     
  2. Revenues from the Montego Bay airport decreased by Ps. 321.1 million, or 70.3%, compared to 1Q20. This was mainly due to the 73.1% decrease in passenger traffic. The passenger traffic decline was partially offset by the 2.3% depreciation of the peso versus the U.S. dollar during 1Q21, which went from an average exchange rate of Ps. 19.8551 in 1Q20 to Ps. 20.3190 in 1Q21.
     
     
  3. Revenues from the Kingston airport declined by Ps. 58.6 million, or 41.6% compared to 1Q20, mainly due to a 67.4% decrease in passenger traffic. The increase in passenger fees beginning April 2020, as well as the depreciation of the peso versus the dollar, partially offset the decrease in passenger traffic.
     
     
• The change in non-aeronautical services revenues was composed primarily of the following factors:
  
  
  1. The Mexican airports decreased by Ps. 292.6 million, or 35.5%, compared to 1Q20. Revenues from businesses operated by third parties decreased by Ps. 175.0 million. This was mainly due to a decrease in revenues from time shares, food and beverage, duty-free stores, retail and car rentals, which jointly decreased by Ps. 172.8 million, or 37.5%. Revenues from businesses operated directly by the Company decreased by Ps. 100.5 million, or 42.9%, while the recovery of costs decreased by Ps. 17.2 million, or 34.8%.
     
     
  2. Revenues from the Montego Bay airport decreased by Ps. 68.4 million, or 47.0%, compared to 1Q20. Revenues in U.S. dollars decreased by US$ 3.5 million, or 48.2%. However, the 2.3% depreciation of the peso versus the dollar partially offset the revenue decrease in 1Q21.
     
     
  3. Revenues from the Kingston airport declined by Ps. 24.9 million, or 47.6%, compared to 1Q20. Revenues in U.S. dollars decreased by US$ 1.3 million, or 48.4%.

• Revenues from improvements to concession assets¹
  Revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC 12) increased by Ps. 106.0 million, or 12.9%, compared to 1Q20, mainly in:
  
  
  1. The Company’s Mexican airports, which increased by Ps. 102.3 million, or 12.7%, as a result of the adjusted Master Development Program for the 2020-2024 period.
     
  2. Improvements to concession assets at the Montego Bay airport increased Ps. 3.7 million, or 23.2%. During 1Q21 no investments in improvements to concession assets were made at the Kingston airport.
     

Total operating costs decreased by Ps. 243.3 million, or 9.3%, compared to 1Q20, mainly due to a Ps. 273.8 million, or 47.5%, decrease in concession taxes and technical assistance fees, and a Ps. 83.9 million, or 11.4% decrease in cost of services. This decrease was partially offset by a Ps. 106.0 million, or 12.9%, increase in the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC 12). Excluding the cost of improvements to concession assets, operating costs decreased Ps. 349.4 million, or 19.4%. This was composed primarily of the following factors:

Mexican Airports:

• Operating costs decreased by Ps. 10.8 million or 0.5%, compared to 1Q20, despite the Ps. 102.3 million, or 12.7%, increase in the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC 12) (excluding this cost, operating costs decreased by Ps. 113.1 million or 9.4%), primarily due to the Ps. 32.2 million, or 6.0%, decrease in cost of services, the Ps. 91.4 million, or 30.6%, decrease in technical assistance fees and concession taxes, as a result of the decrease in revenues. These decreases were also partially offset by a Ps. 15.2 million, or 4.1%, increase in depreciation and amortization.
  

The decline in the cost of services was mainly due to the cost containment program during 1Q21:

• Other operating expenses decreased by Ps. 20.0 million, or 17.1%, compared to 1Q20, mainly due to a Ps. 34.4 million, or 44.7% decrease in professional service fees, travel costs, marketing expenses, cost of sales in the VIP lounges and convenience stores, and expenses for FBO services. This decrease was partially offset by a Ps. 15.0 million increase in the allowance for expected credit losses.
• Maintenance costs decreased by Ps. 10.1 million, or 11.6%, compared to 1Q20.
• Utilities decreased by Ps. 8.9 million, or 16.3%, compared to 1Q20, mainly due to a decrease in electric energy and water consumption which saved Ps. 7.6 million.
  

Montego Bay Airport:

Operating costs decreased by Ps. 152.1 million, or 36.6% compared to 1Q20, mainly due to the decrease in concession taxes of Ps. 134.4 million, or 82.3%, cost of services of Ps. 18.5 million, or 16.6%, and cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC 12) of Ps. 3.7 million, or 23.1%, which were partially offset by a Ps. 4.9 million, or 4.2%, increase in depreciation and amortization. Operating costs in U.S. dollars declined by US$ 7.4 million.

Kingston Airport:

Operating costs decreased by Ps. 80.5 million, or 39.3% in 1Q21 compared to 1Q20, mainly due to a Ps. 48.0 million, or 42.0%, decrease in concession taxes and a Ps. 33.1 million, or 37.4%, decrease in the cost of services. Operating costs in U.S. dollars declined by US$ 3.9 million.

Operating margin for 1Q21 declined by 1,260 basis points, from a margin of 47.1% in 1Q20 to a margin of 34.5% in 1Q21. Excluding the effects of IFRIC 12, operating margin declined by 1,020 basis points, from 56.5% to 46.3% in 1Q21. Operating income decreased by Ps. 1,087.5 million, or 46.4%, compared to 1Q20.

EBITDA margin decreased by 850 basis points, from 56.8% in 1Q20 to 48.3% in 1Q21. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, EBITDA margin decreased by 320 basis points, from 68.2% in 1Q20 to 65.0% in 1Q21. The nominal value of EBITDA was Ps. 1,757.2 million in 1Q21, compared to Ps. 2,824.0 million in 1Q20, representing a decrease of 37.8%.

Financial cost increased by Ps. 64.2 million, from a net expense of Ps. 15.1 million in 1Q20 to a net expense of Ps. 79.3 million in 1Q21. This increase was mainly the result of:

• Foreign exchange rate fluctuations, which went from income of Ps. 236.4 million in 1Q20 to income of Ps. 219.9 million in 1Q21, generated a decrease in the foreign exchange gain of Ps. 16.5 million. The currency translation effect represented a decrease of Ps. 1,355.6 million, compared to 1Q20.
  
  
• An increase in interest expenses of Ps. 38.7 million, or 11.2%, compared to 1Q20, mainly due to higher debt as a result of the issuance of long-term bonds and bank debt disbursed during 2020.
  
  
• Interest income declined by Ps. 8.7 million, or 9.2%, compared to 1Q20, mainly due to the decline in interest rates.
  

In 1Q21, comprehensive income decreased Ps. 1,848.0 million, or 58.4% compared to 1Q20. This effect was mainly the result of a decrease in the currency translation effect gain of Ps. 1,355.6 million, mainly due to a 24.8% depreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar in 1Q20 as compared to a depreciation of 2.3% in 1Q21, as well as the substantial decrease in passenger traffic, which generated lower revenues for 1Q21.

During 1Q21, net income decreased by Ps. 770.5 million, or 42.6% compared to 1Q20. Income taxes decreased by Ps. 381.1 million, or 73.5%, due to a decline of Ps. 301.6 million in income taxes and a Ps. 79.7 million increase in the benefit for deferred tax, mainly due to a higher inflation rate, that went from 1.21% in 1Q20 to 2.34% in 1Q21.

Statement of Financial Position

Total assets as of March 31, 2021 increased by Ps. 4,602.1 million as compared to March 31, 2020, primarily due to the following items: (i) cash and equivalents of Ps. 3,754.5 million; (ii) improvements to concession assets of Ps. 1,040.2 million; and (iii) recoverable tax on assets and other assets of Ps. 679.5 million. This was partially offset by a Ps. 910.2 million decrease in the value of concession assets, among others.

Total liabilities as of March 31, 2021 increased by Ps. 4,604.9 million compared to March 31, 2020. This increase was primarily due to the following items: (i) issuance of Ps. 4,200.0 million in long-term bonds and (ii) bank loans of Ps. 1,995.4 million.

In October 2018, GAP entered into a concession agreement for the operation of the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston, Jamaica and took control of the operation in October 2019.

For presentation purposes, the 25.5% stake in Desarrollo de Concesiones Aeroportuarias, S.L. (“DCA”) held by Vantage appears in the Stockholders’ Equity of the Company as a non-controlling interest.

As a part of the adoption of IFRS, the effects of inflation on common stock recognized pursuant to Mexican Financial Reporting Standards (MFRS) through December 31, 2007 were reclassified as retained earnings because accumulated inflation recognized under MFRS is not considered hyperinflationary according to IFRS. For Mexican legal and tax purposes, Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V., as an individual entity, will continue preparing separate financial information under MFRS. Therefore, for any transaction between the Company and its shareholders related to stockholders’ equity, the Company must take into consideration the accounting balances prepared under MFRS as an individual entity and determine the tax impact under tax laws applicable in Mexico, which requires the use of MFRS. For purposes of reporting to stock exchanges, the consolidated financial statements will continue being prepared in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IASB.

[1] Revenues from improvements to concession assets are recognized in accordance with International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee 12 “Service Concession Arrangements” (IFRIC 12), but this recognition does not have a cash impact or an impact on the Company’s operating results. Amounts included as a result of the recognition of IFRIC 12 are related to construction of infrastructure in each quarter to which the Company has committed in accordance with the Company’s Master Development Programs in Mexico and Capital Development Program in Jamaica. All margins and ratios calculated using “Total Revenues” include revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC 12), and, consequently, such margins and ratios may not be comparable to other ratios and margins, such as EBITDA margin, operating margin or other similar ratios that are calculated based on those results of the Company that do have a cash impact.
