INCOME STATEMENT DISCUSSION
1Q 2026 Revenue
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2026 reached
Our premium revenue(3) mix climbed to 42% of passenger-related revenue, up from 41% in 1Q25, demonstrating strong demand for higher-yield services across our network. These overall results reflect demand resilience, notwithstanding localized disruptions in February that affected certain regions in
Total revenue per Available Seat Mile (“TRASM”) reached 15.6¢, marking a 14.6% year-over-year increase. The upward trend in TRASM was largely attributed to a 2.2 percentage point improvement in load factor, an increase of over

1Q 2026 Operating Expenses
In 1Q26, total operating expenses –including fuel, labor, maintenance, passenger and aircraft services, aircraft leases, depreciation and amortization– reached
Fuel cost per liter increased 13.1% compared to 1Q25, averaging 77¢ per liter in 1Q26 compared to 68¢ per liter in 1Q25. Fuel consumption decreased by 2.6% year-over-year, while fuel burn per ASM (liters of fuel consumed per ASM) decreased by 1.4%, mainly due to a more efficient fleet mix.
Cost per ASM excluding fuel (CASM-Ex) was 10.2¢ in 1Q26, representing an increase of 17.8% compared to the same period in 2025. This rise was primarily driven by a 14.0% appreciation of the Mexican peso, increased ownership costs attributable to additions to the aircraft fleet in 2025, higher labor expenses associated with inflation-related salary adjustments, and the expansion of international operations.

Annex A on Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS, the Company discloses information regarding Adjusted EBITDAR, Adjusted EBITDAR Margin, Adjusted Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio, which are non-IFRS measures. The Company believes that these measures are useful indicators of its operational performance. These known performance measurements in the aviation industry are frequently used by investors, stock analysts and others who are interested in comparing the operational performance of companies in its industry.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAR as profit or loss for the period before income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, net finance cost, and impairment (reversal), before aircraft leasing expense, in light of the non-recurring nature of this item. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDAR to be solely a valuation metric, not a performance metric. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAR Margin as Adjusted EBITDAR divided by total revenue for the period. The Company defines Adjusted Net Debt as total loan and borrowings, including leases, minus cash and cash equivalents. The Company defines Net Leverage Ratio as Adjusted Net Debt Ratio divided by Adjusted EBITDAR for the period.
All of the above-mentioned non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are: (i) they do not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, its working capital needs; (iii) they do not reflect the Company’s cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on the Company’s debt; (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and they do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; (v) they do not adjust for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income; (vi) they do not reflect the impact of all non-recurring items; and (vii) other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these measures, or similarly titled measures, differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Reconciliations of each of these historical measures, and to the extent applicable, forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure are below. No reconciliation of the forecasted amounts of Adjusted EBITDAR Margin, as incrementally adjusted, and revenue, as incrementally adjusted, for fiscal 2026 is included in this release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the corresponding IFRS measure without unreasonable efforts, due to high variability and complexity with respect to estimating certain forward-looking amounts, and we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.
