Latam Airlines has increased its full-year guidance after reporting a second-quarter net income surge. The airline raised its capacity growth outlook to 8.5% to 9.5% and adjusted Ebitdar to $3.65 billion to $3.85 billion. The profit of $241.8 million was up from $145.3 million last year, and adjusted Ebitdar climbed 37.4% to $850 million. The company has already raised its yearly guidance last quarter and has seen its shares rise 66% since returning to the NYSE.
Latam Airlines has announced an upward revision to its full-year guidance following a robust second-quarter performance. The airline reported a net income of $241.8 million, up from $145.3 million in the same period last year, and adjusted Ebitdar climbed 37.4% to $850 million. This significant improvement led Latam to raise its capacity growth outlook to 8.5% to 9.5% and adjusted Ebitdar to $3.65 billion to $3.85 billion for the year [2].The company's Chief Financial Officer, Ricardo Bottas, highlighted the strong demand and operational efficiency that drove these results. He noted that the updated guidance reflects a more feasible outlook for the second half of the year, particularly for the booking curve [2].
Latam's stock has shown remarkable resilience since returning to the New York Stock Exchange in 2024, with shares rising by 66% since then. The airline has also completed two buyback programs, selling 10 million American depositary receipts (ADRs) in a secondary share sale last month [2].
The positive Q2 results and upward revisions to the full-year outlook come after Latam had already raised its yearly guidance in the previous quarter. The airline's strong performance is a testament to its recovery from the 2020 Chapter 11 bankruptcy restructuring [2].
