- Net income and comprehensive income per share for 3Q23 and 3Q22 were calculated based on 505,277,464 shares outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. U.S. dollar figures presented were converted from pesos to U.S. dollars at a rate of Ps. 17.4064 per U.S. dollar (the noon buying rate on September 29, 2023, as published by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board).

- For purposes of the consolidation of our Jamaican airports, the average three-month exchange rate of Ps. 17.0601 per U.S. dollar for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was used.


Revenues (3Q23 vs. 3Q22)

  • Aeronautical services revenues increased by Ps. 362.8 million, or 8.2%.

  • Non-aeronautical services revenues increased by Ps. 186.6 million, or 14.0%.

  • Revenues from improvements to concession assets increased by Ps. 91.5 million, or 9.4%.

  • Total revenues increased by Ps. 640.9 million, or 9.5%.

  • The change in aeronautical services revenues was primarily due to the following factors:

    1. Revenues at our Mexican airports increased by Ps. 393.1 million, or 10.6%, compared to 3Q22, mainly due to the 10.8% increase in passenger traffic and the 99.0% compliance with the maximum tariffs.

    2. Revenues from Jamaican airports decreased by Ps. 30.3 million, or 4.1%, compared to 3Q22. This was mainly due to the 15.7% appreciation of the peso versus the U.S. dollar, compared to 3Q22, which went from an average exchange rate of Ps. 20.2403 in 3Q22 to Ps. 17.0601 in 3Q23, which represented a decrease in revenues in pesos. Revenues in U.S. dollars increased by USD$2.8 million or 24.6%. Passenger traffic increased by 11.1%.

  • The change in non-aeronautical services revenues was primarily driven by the following factors:

    1. Revenues at our Mexican airports increased by Ps. 174.2 million, or 16.0%, compared to 3Q22. Revenues from businesses operated by third parties increased by Ps. 66.6 million, or 9.4%, mainly due to the passenger traffic recovery, the opening of new commercial spaces, and the renegotiation of contract conditions. The business lines that grew the most were food and beverage, retail, car rentals, and leasing of space, all of which increased by Ps. 92.9 million, or 20.2%, offset by a decrease in revenues from duty-free stores and time-shares by Ps. 20.4 million, combined, given that these contracts are in U.S. dollars and the peso appreciated by 15.7%. Revenues from businesses operated directly by us increased by Ps. 107.6 million, or 29.3%.

    2. Revenues from the Jamaican airports increased by Ps. 12.4 million, or 5.1%, compared to 3Q22. The business line that grew the most was duty-free stores, advertising, and financial services, which increased by Ps. 17.5 million, or 17.5%. These revenues were offset by a decrease in retail and other commercial revenues by Ps. 6.5 million. Revenues in U.S. dollars increased by US$ 2.9 million, or 24.7%, offset by an appreciation of the peso by 15.7% against the U.S. dollar compared to 3Q22.

  • Revenues from improvements to concession assets 1
    Revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12) increased by Ps. 91.5 million, or 9.4%, compared to 3Q22. The change was composed of:

    1. Improvements to concession assets at the Company’s Mexican airports, which increased by Ps. 81.4 million, or 8.5%, due to increased investments under the Master Development Program for 2020-2024 period.

    2. Improvements to concession assets at the Company’s Jamaican airports, which increased Ps. 10.1 million, or 59.2%.

_____________________________
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. 488.2 million, or 15.0%, compared to 3Q22, mainly due to the increase from costs of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12) by Ps. 91.5 million, a combined increase of Ps. 165.6 million, or 23.2%, in concession taxes and technical assistance fees, an increase in the cost of services of Ps. 202.3 million, or 20.6%, and a Ps. 32.1 million, or 5.5%, increase in depreciation and amortization (excluding the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12), operating costs increased Ps. 396.6 million, or 17.4%).

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

Mexican airports:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 352.3 million, or 13.5%, compared to 3Q22, primarily due to a Ps. 81.4 million, or 8.5%, increase in the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC-12), Ps. 196.7 million, or 25.2%, increase in the cost of services, a combined Ps. 40.1 million, or 9.6%, increase in technical assistance fees and concession taxes, and a Ps. 39.5 million, or 8.6%, increase in depreciation and amortization (excluding the cost of improvements to the concession assets, operating costs increased by Ps. 270.8 million or 16.4%).

The change in the cost of services during 3Q23 was mainly due to:

  • Employee costs increased Ps. 81.6 million, or 26.6%, compared to 3Q22, mainly due to the hiring of 317 additional personnel during the last quarter of 2022 and during the first nine months of 2023, mainly for the operation of business lines operated directly by us, as well as the adjustments in salaries and changes in Labor Law.

  • Other operating expenses increased Ps. 59.6 million, or 36.5%, compared to 3Q22, mainly due to a combined increase of Ps. 53.1 million in the cost of goods and services for our VIP lounges and convenience stores, due to the increase in sales of these business lines, as well as the increase in FBO services, professional fees, and travel expenses.

  • Safety, security, and insurance costs increased Ps. 25.5 million, or 23.8%, compared to 3Q22, mainly due to an increase in the number of security staff, minimum wages and changes in Labor Law, and the opening of additional operational areas.

  • Utilities costs increased by Ps. 15.2 million, or 17.5%.

Jamaican Airports:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 135.9 million, or 21.1%, compared to 3Q22, mainly due to a Ps. 125.5 million, or 42.3%, increase in concession taxes, an increase in the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12) by Ps.10.1 million, or 59.2%, and an increase in the cost of services by Ps. 5.6 million, or 2.8%, offset by the decrease in the depreciation and amortization by Ps. 7.4 million, or 5.8%.

Operating income margin went from 51.8% in 3Q22 to 49.4% in 3Q23. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, the operating income margin went from 60.5% in 3Q22 to 57.7% in 3Q23. Income from operations increased by Ps. 152.7 million, or 4.4%, compared to 3Q22.

EBITDA margin went from 60.5% in 3Q22 to 57.8% in 3Q23. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, EBITDA margin went from 70.7% in 3Q22 to 67.5% in 3Q23. The nominal value of EBITDA increased by Ps. 184.8 million, or 4.5%, compared to 3Q22.

Financial result increased by Ps. 316.9 million, or 139.4%, from a net expense of Ps. 227.3 million in 3Q22 to a net expense of Ps. 544.2 million in 3Q23. This change was mainly the result of:

  • Foreign exchange rate fluctuations, which went from an income of Ps. 208.1 million in 3Q22 to an income of Ps. 170.3 million in 3Q23. This generated a foreign exchange loss of Ps. 37.9 million. This was mainly due to the appreciation of the peso. The currency translation effect income increased Ps. 166.1 million, compared to 3Q22.

  • Interest expenses increased by Ps. 413.4 million, or 64.6%, compared to 3Q22, 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 increase in interest rates.

  • Interest income increased by Ps. 134.4 million, or 65.2%, compared to 3Q22, mainly due to an increase in the reference interest rates.

In 3Q23, comprehensive income decreased by Ps. 105.3 million, or 4.0%, compared to 3Q22. Income before taxes decreased by Ps. 164.1 million, mainly due to the increase in the financial result of Ps. 316.9 million and the decrease in revenues in dollars due to the appreciation of the peso by 15.7%, an effect offset by the increase in income from the currency translation effect in Ps. 166.1 million.

During 3Q23, net income decreased by Ps. 283.9 million, or 10.7%, compared to 3Q22. Taxes for the period increased by Ps. 119.7 million, income taxes increased by Ps. 3.3 million and the benefit for deferred taxes decreased by Ps. 116.4 million, mainly due to a decrease in the inflation rate, from 2.2% in 3Q22 to 1.4% in 3Q23.

- Net income and comprehensive income per share for 9M23 and 9M22 were calculated based on 505,277,464 shares outstanding as of September 30, 2023. U.S. dollar figures presented were converted from pesos to U.S. dollars at a rate of Ps. 17.4064 per U.S. dollar (the noon buying rate on September 29, 2023, as published by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board).

- For purposes of the consolidation of the airports in Jamaica, the average nine-month exchange rate of Ps. 17.8282 per U.S. dollar for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was used.


Revenues (9M23 vs. 9M22)

  • Aeronautical services revenues increased by Ps. 2,153.9 million, or 17.1%.

  • Non-aeronautical services revenues increased by Ps. 728.4 million, or 19.1%.

  • Revenues from improvements to concession assets increased by Ps. 1,835.4 million, or 62.6%.

  • Total revenues increased by Ps. 4,717.8 million, or 24.4%.

  • The change in aeronautical services revenues was composed primarily of the following factors:

    1. Revenues at our Mexican airports increased by Ps. 1,975.8 million, or 18.5%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to the 14.7% increase in passenger traffic, as well as 99.0% compliance with the maximum tariffs.

    2. Revenues from Jamaican airports increased by Ps. 178.1 million, or 9.0%, compared to 9M22. This was mainly due to the 21.8% increase in passenger traffic but offset by the appreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar compared to 9M22 of 12.0%, which went from an average exchange rate of Ps. 20.2682 in 9M22 to Ps. 17.8282 in 9M23, which represented a decrease in revenues in pesos.

  • The change in non-aeronautical services revenues was composed primarily of the following factors :

    1. Revenues at our Mexican airports increased by Ps. 640.8 million, or 20.4%, compared to 9M22. Revenues from businesses operated directly by us increased by Ps. 335.0 million, or 36.1%, while the recovery of costs increased by Ps. 4.8 million, or 3.9%. Revenues from businesses operated by third parties increased by Ps. 301.0 million, or 14.4%. This was mainly due to the recovery of passenger traffic, the opening of new commercial spaces, and the renegotiation of existing contracts. The business lines that increased the most were food and beverage, retail, leasing of space, and car rentals, which jointly increased by Ps. 296.5 million, or 22.3%. Commercial revenues in U.S. dollars represent 25% of non-aeronautical revenues, therefore the appreciation of the peso during 9M23 affected that revenue by approximately 3.3%.

    2. Revenues from the Jamaican airports increased by Ps. 87.6 million, or 13.0%, compared to 9M22. The business lines that increased the most were duty-free stores, retail, food and beverage, advertising, parking lots, and leasing of space, which jointly increased by Ps. 105.0 million, or 18.5%. These revenues were offset by a decrease in other commercial revenues by Ps. 17.8 million. Revenues in U.S. dollars increased by US$9.5 million, or 28.5%.

  • Revenues from improvements to concession assets2
    Revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12) increased by Ps. 1,835.4 million, or 62.6%, compared to 9M22. The change was composed primarily of:

    1. The Company’s Mexican airports, which increased by Ps. 1,820.7 million, or 63.6%, due to increased investments under the Master Development Program for 2020-2024 period.

    2. Improvements to concession assets at the Company’s Jamaican airports, which increased Ps. 14.7 million, or 21.0%.

_____________________________
[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. 3,193.8 million, or 34.7%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to a Ps. 1,835.4 million, or 62.6% increase in the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC-12), a combined Ps. 637.4 million, or 32.6%, increase in concession taxes and technical assistance fees, a Ps. 549.5 million, or 20.9%, increase in cost of services, and a Ps. 143.6 million, or 8.4%, increase in depreciation and amortization (excluding the cost of improvements to concession assets, operating costs increased Ps. 1,358.4 million, or 21.6%).

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

Mexican Airports:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 2,759.4 million, or 36.9%, compared to 9M22, primarily due to a Ps. 1,820.7 million, or 63.6%, increase in the cost of improvements to the concession assets (IFRIC-12), a Ps. 570.4 million, or 27.6%, increase in cost of services, a combined Ps. 210.9 million, or 17.4%, increase in technical assistance fees and concession taxes, a Ps. 145.0 million, or 10.8%, increase in depreciation and amortization, (excluding the cost of improvements to the concession assets, operating costs increased by Ps. 938.7 million or 20.4%).

The change in the cost of services during 9M23 was mainly due to:

  • Employee costs increased Ps. 279.8 million, or 33.3%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to the hiring of additional personnel as well as the adjustments in salaries and changes in Labor Law.

  • Other operating expenses increased Ps. 126.8 million, or 33.7%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to a combined increase of Ps. 112.4 million in the cost of goods and services for our VIP lounges and convenience stores, due to the increase in the operation and revenues from these business lines, as well as FBO services, the allowance for credit losses, and travel expenses.

  • Safety, security and insurance costs increased Ps. 86.0 million, or 28.7%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to an increase in the number of security staff, increase in minimum wages, changes in Labor Law and the opening of additional operational areas.

  • Utilities increased by Ps. 44.2 million, or 21.2%, compared to 9M22.

Jamaican Airports:

  • Operating costs increased by Ps. 434.4 million, or 24.9%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to a Ps. 426.5 million, or 57.7%, increase in concession taxes, a Ps. 14.7 million or 21.0%, increase in cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12), offset by the decrease in cost of services by Ps. 20.9 million, or 3.7%, and the depreciation and amortization by Ps. 1.4 million, or 0.4%, mainly due to the appreciation of the peso by 12.0%, which represented a decrease in the cost in pesos.

Operating margin went from 52.4% in 9M22 to 48.5% in 9M23. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, operating margin went from 61.8% in 9M22 to 60.5% in 9M23. Operating income increased Ps. 1,524.0 million, or 15.0%, compared to 9M22.

EBITDA margin went from 61.3% in 9M22 to 56.2% in 9M23. Excluding the effects of IFRIC-12, EBITDA margin went from 72.2% in 9M22 to 70.1% in 9M23. The nominal value of EBITDA increased Ps. 1,667.6 million, or 14.0%, compared to 9M22.

Financial cost increased by Ps. 938.2 million, or 119.0%, from a net expense of Ps. 788.4 million in 9M22 to a net expense of Ps. 1,726.6 million in 9M23. This change was mainly the result of:

  • Foreign exchange rate fluctuation, which went from an income of Ps. 342.0 million in 9M22 to a loss of Ps. 186.3 million in 9M23. This generated an increase in the foreign exchange loss of Ps. 528.3 million, due to the peso appreciation. Currency translation effect expense increased Ps. 308.9 million, compared to 9M22.

  • Interest expenses increased by Ps. 942.9 million, or 55.4%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to the increase in debt due to the issuance of bond certificates and the contracting of bank loans, as well as the substantial increase in interest rates.

  • Interest income increased by Ps. 533.0 million, or 92.6%, compared to 9M22, mainly due to an increase in the reference interest rates.

In 9M23, comprehensive income decreased by Ps. 393.5 million, or 5.5%, compared to 9M22. Income before taxes increased by Ps. 585.7 million, mainly due to the increase in traffic and the commercial strategy. This growth generated an increase in income taxes of Ps. 508.0 million. However, net and comprehensive income decreased mainly due to the decrease of the effect of foreign currency translation in Ps. 308.9 million, and a decrease in cash flow hedges for Ps. 162.9 million.

During 9M23, net income increased by Ps. 77.7 million, or 1.1%, compared to 9M22. Taxes for the period increased by Ps. 508.0 million, income taxes increased by Ps. 157.2 million, and the benefit for deferred taxes decreased by Ps. 350.8 million, mainly due to a decrease in the inflation rate, from 6.2% in 9M22 to 2.9% in 9M23.

Statement of Financial Position

Total assets as of September 30, 2023 increased by Ps. 7,143.0 million compared to September 30, 2022, primarily due to the following items: (i) a Ps. 8,620.7 million increase in net improvements to concession assets; (ii) a Ps. 194.8 million increase in account receivables; and (iii) a Ps. 140.7 million combined increase in net machinery, equipment, and leasehold improvements, and advances to suppliers. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of: (i) Ps. 1,703.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, among others.

Total liabilities as of September 30, 2023, increased by Ps. 6,190.2 million compared to September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily due to the following items: (i) issuance of Ps. 2,498.0 million (net) in long-term debt securities, and (ii) Ps. 4,403.5 million in bank loans. This increase was partially offset by decrease of: (i) Ps. 663.5 million in accounts payable, and (ii) Ps. 164.6 million deferred taxes, among others.

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 to be prepared in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IASB.
