Company’s Financial Position:

During 3Q24, there was a decrease in the Company’s aeronautical revenues compared to 3Q23, mainly due to the decline in passenger traffic, as a result of preventive reviews of Pratt & Whitney A320neo and A321neo engines, which affected the fleet operated by Volaris and VivaAerobus and that started in the third quarter of 2023 reaching its highest volume in the 3Q24. This decrease was offset by an increase in non-aeronautical revenues of 38.7%, generated mainly by the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business at the Guadalajara airport starting in July 2024. The Company reports a financial position of cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2024, of Ps. 15,828.0 million. During 3Q24, the Company refinanced the credit facilities with Citibanamex for Ps. 1,000.0 million and for USD$40.0 million, additionally, on September 5, 2024, the Company issued long-term bond certificates for an amount of Ps. 5,648.1 million, for capital investments and debt refinancing.

  • Revenues from improvements to concession assets 1

    Revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12) increased by Ps. 436.9 million, or 41.1%, compared to 3Q23. The change was composed of :

    1. Improvements to concession assets at the Company’s Mexican airports increased by Ps. 299.7 million, or 28.9%, following investments under the Master Development Program for the 2020-2024 period.
    2. Improvements to concession assets at the Company’s Jamaican airports increased Ps. 137.2 million, or 504.1%.

________________________
1 Revenues from improvements to concession assets are recognized in accordance with International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee 12 “Service Concession Arrangements” (IFRIC 12). However, this recognition does not have a cash impact or 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. This is in accordance with the Company’s Master Development Programs in Mexico and Capital Development Programs 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.


Total operating costs
increased by Ps. 769.5 million, or 20.6%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to the increase in the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12) by Ps. 436.9 million and the cargo and free trade zone business consolidation.

The cost of services increased by Ps. 251.9 million, or 21.3%, while the depreciation and amortization increased by Ps. 167.5 million, or 27.0%. This was offset by a combined decrease of Ps. 81.8 million, or 5.0%, in concession taxes and technical assistance fees (excluding the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12), operating costs increased Ps. 332.5 million, or 12.4%).

This increase in total operating costs was primarily due to the following factors:

Mexican airports:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 694.8 million, or 23.4%, compared to 3Q23, primarily due to an increase in the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC-12) by Ps. 299.7 million, or 28.9%, an increase in the cost of services by Ps. 223.2 million, or 22.9%, an increase in depreciation and amortization by Ps. 152.7 million, or 30.6%, and a combined increase in technical assistance fees and concession taxes by Ps. 22.9 million, or 5.0% (excluding the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC-12), operating costs increased by Ps. 395.0 million or 20.5%).

The change in the cost of services at our Mexican airports during 3Q24 was mainly due to:

  • Employee costs increased Ps. 125.0 million, or 32.2%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business of Ps. 86.5 million, as well as the hiring of 175 additional personnel during the last quarter of 2023 and 9M24, as well as the adjustments in salaries and cost related to changes in Labor Law.
  • Maintenance expenses increased by Ps. 41.3 million, or 31.7%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to the opening of new operational areas and the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business with maintenance expenses of Ps. 8.4 million.
  • Safety, security, and insurance increased by Ps. 29.4 million, or 22.1%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to the increase in the security headcount, minimum wages, and changes in Labor Law, the opening of new operational areas and the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business by Ps.4.8 million.
  • Other operating expenses increased by Ps. 15.7 million, or 7.1%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to a combined increase in services, professional fees, and travel expenses by Ps. 11.7 million, the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business with other operating expenses of Ps. 12.4 million. This was offset by the decrease in the allowance for expected credit losses by Ps. 4.8 million.

Jamaican Airport:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 74.7 million, or 9.6%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to a Ps. 137.2 million, or 504.1%, increase in the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12), an increase in the cost of services by Ps. 28.7 million, or 13.8%, offset by the decrease in the concession taxes by Ps. 104.7 million, or 24.8%.

Operating income margin went from 49.4% in 3Q23 to 45.2% in 3Q24. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, the operating income margin went from 57.7% in 3Q23 to 55.3% in 3Q24. Income from operations increased by Ps. 70.2 million, or 1.9%, compared to 3Q23.

EBITDA margin went from 57.8% in 3Q23 to 54.8% in 3Q24. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, EBITDA margin went from 67.5% in 3Q23 to 67.0% in 3Q24. The nominal value of EBITDA increased by Ps. 237.8 million, or 5.6%, compared to 3Q23.

Financial results increased by Ps. 515.8 million, or 94.8%, from a net expense of Ps. 544.1 million in 3Q23 to a net expense of Ps. 1,060.0 million in 3Q24. This change was mainly the result of:

  • Foreign exchange rate fluctuations, which went from an income of Ps. 170.2 million in 3Q23 to an expense of Ps. 313.4 million in 3Q24. This generated a foreign exchange loss of Ps. 483.7 million. This was mainly due to the depreciation of the peso. Currency translation effect gain increased Ps. 493.0 million, compared to 3Q23.
  • Interest expenses increased by Ps. 25.2 million, or 2.2%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to higher debt as a result of the issuance of long-term debt securities and the drawdown of credit lines, as well as the substantial increase in the interest rates.
  • Interest income decreased by Ps. 6.9 million, or 2.1%, compared to 3Q23, mainly due to a decrease in the cash and cash equivalents average balance and the reference rates.

In 3Q24, comprehensive income increased by Ps. 69.1 million, or 2.7%, compared to 3Q23. Income before income taxes decreased by Ps. 445.6 million, mainly due to the decrease in passenger traffic and partially offset by the revenues generated by the commercial strategy and the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business. This decrease generated a decrease in the tax income of Ps. 49.5 million. Net and comprehensive income increased mainly due to the increase of the effect of foreign currency translation by Ps. 493.0 million.

During 3Q24, net income decreased by Ps. 396.0 million, or 16.6%, compared to 3Q23. Taxes for the period decreased by Ps. 49.5 million, tax income increased by Ps. 67.0 million and the benefit for deferred taxes increased by Ps. 116.5 million, mainly due to the application of fiscal losses for Ps. 97.9 million, and other deferred taxes by Ps. 20.7 million, offset by a decrease in the inflationary effects, that went from an inflation rate of 1.5% in 3Q23 to 1.4% in 3Q24.

Revenues (9M24 vs. 9M23)

  • Aeronautical services revenues decreased by Ps. 630.0 million, or 4.3%.
  • Non-aeronautical services revenues increased by Ps. 976.8 million, or 21.5%.
  • Revenues from improvements to concession assets decreased by Ps. 452.6 million, or 9.5%.
  • Total revenues decreased by Ps. 105.9 million, or 0.4%.
  • The change in aeronautical services revenues was composed primarily of the following factors:
    1. Revenues at our Mexican airports decreased by Ps. 700.4 million, or 5.5%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to the 3.4% decrease in passenger traffic, as well as 93.4% compliance with the maximum tariffs.
    2. Revenues from Jamaican airports increased by Ps. 70.4 million, or 3.3%, compared to 9M23. This was mainly due to the increase in revenues in U.S. dollars by US$4.8 million, or 4.0%. This was offset by an appreciation of the peso against the dollar compared to 9M23 of 0.7%, which went from an average exchange rate of Ps. 17.8282 in 9M23 to Ps. 17.7104 in 9M24, which represented a decrease in revenues in pesos. Passenger traffic decreased by 1.5%.
  • The change in non-aeronautical services revenues was composed primarily of the following factors :
    1. Revenues at our Mexican airports increased by Ps. 968.4 million, or 25.6%, compared to 9M23. Revenues from businesses operated directly by us increased by Ps. 612.9 million, or 48.5%, mainly due to the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business starting in July 2024 with revenues of Ps. 354.1 million, while the recovery of costs increased by Ps. 4.5 million, or 3.5%. Revenues from businesses operated by third parties increased by Ps. 350.9 million, or 14.7%. This was mainly due to the opening of new commercial spaces, and the renegotiation of existing contracts. The business lines that increased the most were car rentals, food and beverage, other commercial revenues, and retail, which jointly increased by Ps. 357.8 million, or 18.2%.
    2. Revenues from the Jamaican airports increased by Ps. 8.4 million, or 1.1%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to the increase in revenues in USD dollars by US$0.7 million or 1.8%, this was offset by an appreciation of the peso against the dollar compared to 9M23 of 0.7%.

  • Revenues from improvements to concession assets2

    Revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC12) decreased by Ps. 452.6 million, or 9.5%, compared to 9M23. The change was composed primarily of:

    1. The Company’s Mexican airports decreased by Ps. 672.3 million, or 14.4%, following the investments under the Master Development Program for the 2020-2024 period.
    2. Improvements to concession assets at the Company’s Jamaican airports increased by Ps. 219.7 million, or 258.7%.

________________________
[2] 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.


Total operating costs
increased by Ps. 360.8 million, or 2.9%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to a Ps. 536.5 million, or 16.8%, increase in the cost of services, a Ps. 278.6 million, or 15.0%, increase in depreciation and amortization, and a combined increase in concession taxes and technical assistance fees by Ps. 28.6 million, or 1.1%. This was offset by the decrease in improvements to concession assets (IFRIC12) by Ps. 452.6 million, or 9.5% (excluding the cost of improvements to concession assets, operating costs increased Ps. 813.5 million, or 10.6%).

This increase in total operating costs was composed primarily of the following factors:

Mexican Airports:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 102.9 million, or 1.0%, compared to 9M23, primarily due to a Ps.454.5, or 17.2%, increase in the cost of services, a combined Ps. 279.7 million, or 18.9%, increase in depreciation and amortization, and a combined Ps. 68.5 million, or 4.8%, increase in technical assistance fees and concession taxes. This was offset by a Ps. 672.4 million, or 14.4%, decrease in the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC-12). (excluding the cost of improvements to the concession assets, operating costs increased by Ps. 775.3 million or 14.0%).

The change in the cost of services during 9M24 was mainly due to:

  • Employee costs increased by Ps. 237.7 million, or 21.2%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to the adjustments in salaries and changes in Labor Law and the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business with employee costs of Ps. 86.5 million.
  • Other operating expenses increased by Ps. 72.4 million, or 14.4%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to a combined increase in services, professional fees, and travel expenses by Ps. 41.0 million and the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business with other operating expenses of Ps. 12.4 million.
  • Maintenance increased by Ps. 61.0 million, or 16.1%, compared to 9M23.
  • Safety, security, and insurance costs increased Ps. 60.4 million, or 15.6%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to an increase in the number of security staff, an increase in minimum wages, changes in Labor Law, the opening of additional operational areas and the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business by Ps.4.8 million.

Jamaican Airports:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 257.9 million, or 11.8%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to a Ps. 219.7 million, or 258.7%, increase in the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12), a Ps. 82.0 million, or 15.0% increase in the cost of services, offset by the decrease in concession taxes by Ps. 39.9 million, or 3.4%, and Ps. 1.1 million or 0.3% in depreciation and amortization.

Operating margin went from 48.5% in 9M23 to 46.8% in 9M24. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, the operating margin went from 60.5% in 9M23 to 57.0% in 9M24. Operating income decreased Ps. 466.7 million, or 4.0%, compared to 9M23.

EBITDA margin went from 56.2% in 9M23 to 55.7% in 9M24. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, EBITDA margin went from 70.1% in 9M23 to 67.9% in 9M24. The nominal value of EBITDA decreased Ps. 188.1 million, or 1.4%, compared to 9M23.

Financial cost increased by Ps. 590.3 million, or 34.2%, from a net expense of Ps. 1,726.6 million in 9M23 to a net expense of Ps. 2,316.9 million in 9M24. This change was mainly the result of:

  • Foreign exchange rate fluctuations, which went from a loss of Ps. 186.3 million in 9M23 to a loss of Ps.203.6 million in 9M24. This generated an increase in the foreign exchange loss of Ps. 17.3 million, due to the peso depreciation. Currency translation effect gain increased Ps. 1,675.4 million, compared to 9M23.
  • Interest expenses increased by Ps. 364.4 million, or 13.8%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to the increase in debt due to the issuance of bond certificates and the contracting of bank loans.
  • Interest income decreased by Ps. 208.4 million, or 18.9%, compared to 9M23, mainly due to a decrease in the cash and cash equivalent average balance and the increase in the reference interest rates.

In 9M24, comprehensive income increased by Ps. 925.2 million, or 13.7%, compared to 9M23. Income before taxes decreased by Ps. 1,056.9 million, mainly due to the decrease in passenger traffic and increase in operating costs, offset by the increase in non-aeronautical revenues resulting from the commercial strategy and the consolidation of the cargo and free trade zone business. Income taxes decreased by Ps. 330.7 million. However, net and comprehensive income increased mainly due to the increase of the effect of foreign currency translation in Ps. 1,675.4 million.

During 9M24, net income decreased by Ps. 726.3 million, or 9.8%, compared to 9M23. Taxes for the period decreased by Ps. 330.7 million, mainly due to the increase in the benefit for deferred taxes by Ps. 431.3 million, mainly due to the application of fiscal losses by Ps. 445.0 million, offset by the increase in the income taxes by Ps. 100.6 million.

Statement of Financial Position

Total assets as of September 30, 2024, increased by Ps. 10,630.1 million compared to September 30, 2023, primarily due to the following items: (i) a Ps.6,157.0 million increase in net improvements to concession assets, (ii) a Ps. 1,373.9 increase in cash and cash equivalents, (iii) Ps. 881.0 million increase in deferred taxes, (iii) a Ps. 727.4 million increase in net machinery, equipment, and leasehold improvements, and (v) a Ps. 308.0 million increase in account receivables.

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 under 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 to be prepared following IFRS, as issued by the IASB.
