Aeromexico Stock Hits 2025 Low Despite 0.58% Intraday Gain Amid Legal and Regulatory Pressures

The share price dropped to a record low so far this month, with an intraday gain of 0.58%.

Aeromexico’s stock performance reflects mixed signals from its recent $300 million IPO and ongoing legal challenges. The airline raised capital through American Depositary Shares and domestic equity, with proceeds estimated at $178.8 million for the company after shareholder distributions. Despite this, shares fell to a 2025 low amid uncertainty surrounding a U.S. Department of Transportation order to dissolve its joint venture with Delta Air Lines, citing antitrust concerns. Delta, a major stakeholder, agreed to a four-year lock-up period post-IPO, limiting immediate selling pressure but not insulating the stock from regulatory risks.

The NYSE debut on November 6 saw a 0.84% intraday gain, valuing the company at $2.8 billion, yet broader market conditions remain fragile. The U.S. government shutdown earlier delayed regulatory approvals, while shifting trade policies and interest rates have created a volatile environment. Aeromexico’s post-bankruptcy recovery, supported by Apollo Global and Delta, has restored some investor confidence, but rising fuel costs and labor issues persist as headwinds. The IPO’s success underscores market demand for its turnaround story, yet unresolved legal disputes and economic uncertainties suggest continued volatility ahead.
