Détails de résultats de LAN Airlines SA sur Prnewswire, les IFRS sont là !

SANTIAGO, Chile, July 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- LAN Airlines S.A. (NYSE: [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]), one of Latin America's
leading passenger and cargo airlines, announced today its consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009. "LAN" or "the Company" makes reference to the consolidated entity, which includes passenger and cargo airlines in Latin America. All figures were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are expressed in U.S. dollars.


HIGHLIGHTS

-- LAN reported net income of US$4.2 million for the second quarter 2009. This represents a 93.0% decrease compared to net income of US$60.5 million in the second quarter 2008. These results were impacted by a US$52.6 million fuel hedging loss recognized during the quarter, while results for the second quarter of 2008 included a fuel hedge gain of US$29.2 million.

-- Excluding the impact of fuel hedging, operating income reached US$87.6 million in the second quarter 2009, a 56.2% increase compared to US$56.1 million in the second quarter 2008. Furthermore, the operating margin excluding hedging losses reached 11.2% in the second quarter 2009 as compared to 5.6% in the second quarter 2008, which represents a significant increase in LAN's operating efficiency, especially considering that the second quarter is seasonally the weakest of the year.

-- Continuing with the expansion and renewal of its fleet, during the second quarter 2009, LAN received two new Boeing 777 freighters. LAN Cargo is the first carrier in the region to operate this aircraft, the most modern and efficient freighter of its type.

-- During the quarter LAN completed a round of financing initiated in March 2009, raising an additional US$210 million through bank loans in the Chilean market, reaching a total of US$250 million in bilateral loans with five local banks. These loans have a three year tenor and attractive interest rates, and will be used to increase the Company's liquidity position. At the end of the second quarter, LAN had a total of US$700 million in cash and cash equivalents, representing 18.0% of last twelve month revenues.
Furthermore, LAN is in the final stage of securing long-term financing for three Boeing 767 aircraft to be delivered between 2009 and 2010. This financing is expected to be supported by the US EX-IM Bank.

-- In line with LAN's continued commitment to expand its route network and improve connectivity for passengers traveling within the region, during the second quarter LAN launched service from its Lima hub to Cartagena de Indias,
Colombia two times per week. In addition, on July 10, LAN initiated daily service from Santiago to Lima via Iquique. On August 15, the Company will operate Lima - Cali via Quito three times per week. As for its domestic operations, LAN Argentina incorporated a new route from Buenos Aires to Tucuman with 13 weekly frequencies. In addition, LAN
Ecuador continued developing its domestic routes in that market, currently operating 46 weekly frequencies between Quito and Guayaquil as well as daily service between Guayaquil and Cuenca.

-- LAN continues to receive international recognition. In July 2009, the Company was ranked in sixth place in the annual ranking of Top Performing Airlines by the specialized industry publication Aviation Week, which focused on companies that have best managed the current crisis environment. The ranking included the 32 major carriers globally, with LAN appearing as the leader in Latin America. In addition, LAN was recognized as the most respected company in Chile in the annual ranking by local newspaper La Segunda and Adimark GFK, based on the opinion of respected Chilean business executives.

Lan Airlines group se porte plutôt pas mal coté trafic mais capacité offerte en hausse.

De PRnewswire, A&C :

SANTIAGO, Chile, Sept. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
LAN Airlines S.A. and its subsidiaries, ("LAN" or "the Company") (NYSE: LFL / IPSA: LAN), one of the leading airlines in Latin America, today reported its preliminary monthly traffic statistics and punctuality indicators for August 2009.

System passenger traffic for August increased 4.4% as capacity rose 7.4%. As a result, the Company's load factor decreased 2.2 points to 76.5%. International passenger traffic accounted for approximately 70% of total passenger traffic.

Domestic passenger traffic in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador rose 10.2% as capacity increased 17.3%. As a consequence, the domestic load factor for the month decreased 4.7 points to 73.4%.

International passenger traffic for August rose 2.1% as capacity increased 3.5%.
Accordingly, the international passenger load factor for the month decreased 1.1 points to 77.8%. International capacity was mainly driven by an increase in operations on routes to Europe and the South Pacific, which was partially offset by a decrease on certain regional routes.

In line with the decrease in global import and export markets, during the month of August cargo traffic decreased 4.2%. This decrease was mainly due to a slowdown in import and export markets in Latin America, partially offset by an increase in exports from Peru to the United States, as well as by an increase in operations to and from Europe
resulting from the addition of two new B777F. Capacity remained unchanged compared to August 2008, generating a 3.0 point decrease in the load factor to 69.0%.

During August, 92.6% of the Company's total flights left on time based on a fifteen-minute standard (all departures leaving within fifteen minutes of the scheduled departure time are considered as "on-time"). This represented an increase of 6.3 points compared to August 2008.

Bonsoir, chers tous !
Merci Jeannot !

Les A318 n'ont pas vraiment une place stratégique dans la flotte de LAN.

Et, en les 'sortant' de sa flotte, LAN pourra articuler sa flotte de monocouloirs d'Airbus, autour d'une famille de moteurs, soit les V2500 d'IAE !

Quelques détails sur Flight


Chile's LAN for the seventh consecutive year has registered double-digit growth in full-year passenger traffic,

The Latin American airline group says in a statement today that it carried 15.4 million passengers in 2009, a 16% increase compared with 2008.
Fast-growing LAN has now tripled its passenger traffic since 2002.

Most of the growth last year was driven by domestic expansion. LAN, which now operates domestically in Chile, Argentina, Ecuador and Peru, carried 9.7 million domestic passengers in 2009.

This represents a 21% increase compared to the 8 million domestic passengers carried in 2008.

Internationally, the carrier's passenger count also grew by 9% from 5.2 million to 6.7 million passengers.

On an RPK basis LAN's traffic grew 11% to 29.8 million RPKs.

This included a 21% increase domestically and a 7% increase internationally.

LAN grew capacity by 11% in 2009 to 38.8 billion million ASKs.
This included a 22% increase domestically and a 6% increase internationally.

As a result LAN's system-wide load factor improved from 76.6% in 2008 to 76.9% in 2009.

Domestically the company's load factor slipped from 76% to 74.9%, but on international routes the load factor improved from 76.9% to 77.8%.

While LAN was able to continue its run of double-digit growth in passenger traffic, a streak it began back in 2003, the carrier's cargo traffic dropped in 2008 for the first time since 2002.

LAN registered a 10% drop in RTKs for 2009 to 2.6 billion on a 6% decrease in capacity.

LAN, which remained in the black during the first nine months of 2009, plans to report its full-year financial results on 26 January.

Santiago-based carrier LAN is set to make a major acceleration in its delivery of its first Boeing 787 after a slot swap with Japan's All Nippon Airways (ANA), say sources close to the Latin American carrier and the US airframer.
Two delivery slots from the early batch of aircraft scheduled for delivery in late 2010 and early 2011 have been reallocated from ANA to LAN, the same sources tell ATI and FlightBlogger.
According to a source at the airline, the first 787-8s were intended for delivery to LAN in 2015 after accumulating more than two years of delays.
LAN declined to discuss the change, as "there exists a confidentiality agreement with Boeing. The company will inform about this issue if and when it is appropriate".
Boeing also declined to discuss the shift as a matter of policy to not comment publicly on delivery schedules, saying that "occasionally we and our customers make order adjustments that better support their overall fleet needs, while allowing us to successfully manage our production plan".
Program sources add that the 10th and 16th aircraft built will now be delivered to LAN. ANA [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] after five Chinese carriers deferred their orders in early 2009.
LAN, which selected Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines, [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] its intent to purchase 26 787s and lease six more, marking the largest 787 order from a Latin American carrier.
The order included 18 787-8s and 8 787-9s and an additional lease of 6 787-9 aircraft from ILFC.

The 787-9s leased from ILFC were initially intended to be the carrier's first aircraft to replace [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] on long-range routes. The first 787-9s were supposed to be delivered in 2011, the same year as entry into service of the type.
After two years of delays, the 787-9 will now enter service with launch customer Air New Zealand

As part of its contingency plan for the 787 delays, LAN purchased an additional four [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] aircraft in November 2008 from Boeing and was seeking a fifth, while [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] on its [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] to improve performance.
Airplane 7, the first production 787, is set to be delivered to ANA in the fourth quarter of 2010 following a planned 8.5 month certification campaign which began in December 2009 with the aircraft's maiden flight.
While the early batch of 787s are believed to be over target weight, which will impact performance, the company has already begun incorporating weight saving techniques into early airframes.
Program sources say weight savings on early aircraft, Airplanes 7 through 19, have focused on the wing skins.
Starting with Airplane 20, Boeing will [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] of 502,500lb - up 18,500lb from the initially planned 484,000lb - to "help us to meet the expectations of our customers".

LAN, ligne aérienne en vente.

C'est une des conséquences indirectes de l'élection de Sebastian Piñera à la tête de l'état chilien. En effet, la loi chilienne interdisant aux responsables nationaux de posséder des intérêts privés importants, le nouveau président devra céder les 26,3 % de la compagnie LAN Chile (soit un total estimé de 1,5 Md$) dont il est détenteur. La vente de patrimoine devant être chose faite le 11 mars au plus tard, on s'attend d'ici là à une belle bataille boursière, dans la mesure où les actions de LAN sont nettement à la hausse.

Operating profit slipped 29.7% to $435.7 million.
