Operating Income for the second quarter doubled, reaching R$43 million
São Paulo, August 2, 2018 - GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (“GOL” or “Company”), (NYSE: GOL and B3: GOLL4), Brazil's #1 airline, announces its consolidated results for the second quarter of 2018 (2Q18) and for the six months of 2018 (1H18). All information is presented in accordance with IFRS, in Brazilian Reais (R$) and all comparisons are with the second quarter of 2017 (2Q17) and for the six months of 2017 (1H17), unless otherwise stated.
Summary
Significantly improved operating indicators: RPKs increased by 2.5% to 8.3 billion in 2Q18, mainly due to a 4.1% increase in the number of transported passengers. As a result of strong passenger demand and GOL’s continued focus on revenue management, the Company was able to achieve (i) an average yield per passenger of 25.74 cents (R$), an increase of 7.6% compared to 2Q17, (ii) an average load factor 78.1%, an increase of 0.2 p.p. compared to 2Q17, and (iii) on-time performance of 93.6% in 2Q18 according to Infraero.
Strong revenue growth: the combination of higher demand and optimized pricing resulted in net revenue for the quarter of R$2.4 billion, an increase of 9.0% compared to 2Q17. Net RASK was 22.05 cents (R$) in 2Q18, an increase of 6.7% over 2Q17. Net PRASK increased 8.0% over 2Q17, reaching 20.11 cents (R$). Average fare increased by 6.0% from R$268 to R$284. GOL’s 2018 net revenue guidance is approximately R$11.5 billion.
Controlled cost environment: due to higher jet fuel prices, total CASK in 2Q18 increased 5.9% to 21.66 cents (R$) relative to 2Q17. On an ex-fuel basis, CASK fell by 1.4%. GOL remains the cost leader in South America for the 17th consecutive year.
Continued margin expansion: While the average price of jet fuel increased by 12.6% in 2Q18 over 1Q18, the combination of stronger pricing, higher demand, and R$36 million of operating results in hedging, permitted GOL’s EBIT margin to expand to 1.8% in 2Q18, the highest second quarter indicator since 2010 and a 0.8 p.p. improvement over 2Q17. Operating income (EBIT) in 2Q18 was R$42.8 million, an increase of 92.7% compared to 2Q17 (R$22.2 million). EBITDA margin was 8.8% in 2Q18, a growth of 2.3 p.p. q-o-q. EBITDAR margin was 20.3% in 2Q18, an increase of 2.6 p.p. q-o-q over 2Q17. GOL’s 2018 EBIT margin guidance is approximately 11%.
Balance sheet strengthening: While the Real depreciated 16.0% against the U.S. dollar in 2Q18 (end of period) causing a net exchange and monetary variation loss of R$1.0 billion, net debt (excluding perpetual bonds) to LTM EBITDA was 2.9x as of June 30, 2018, up versus March 31, 2018 (2.5x) and improving versus a year-ago metrics (4.2x). In 2Q18, the Company redeemed its Senior Notes due 2023 for R$80.7 million. Total liquidity, including cash, financial investments, restricted cash and accounts receivable, totaled R$3.0 billion, flat in comparison to March 31, 2018 and an increase by R$1.3 billion versus a year ago. The combination of GOL’s operational cash flow generation of R$588.7 million in the quarter and improved cash liquidity increased the Company’s financial flexibility.
GOL’s 2018 and 2019 guidance is on page 14 of this document.

“We worked hard to achieve our results this second quarter. In 2018, the traditional low season in Brazilian air travel was particularly challenging due to accelerated appreciation of the US Dollar against the Real, and industry-wide supply disruption that affected demand for air travel. Our commitment to continuous improvement in our results has proven that our strategy of offering a differentiated, high quality product while relentlessly focusing on cost efficiency is bearing fruit. We remain focused on offering the best experience in air transportation, providing on-time, exclusive services to our clients on new, modern aircraft that connect our main markets with the most convenient schedules”, commented Paulo Kakinoff, CEO.
In May, the GOL team successfully navigated through the industry-wide disruption caused by an extensive national strike of truck drivers. From May 21 to 31, trucks stopped and blocked the roadways, and supplies of fuel were not delivered to distribution points. As a result of the efforts of GOL’s team and its flight network strategy and single fleet type, the Company operated 99.8% of the schedule flights.
In June, GOL took delivery of its first 737 MAX 8 aircraft. The MAX 8 will permit the Company to serve Brazil’s large addressable market of passengers traveling between Midwest/Northeast Brazil and the State of Florida. In 4Q18 GOL will begin nonstop flights from Brasilia and Fortaleza to the Miami and Orlando international airports. The Brasilia to Orlando flight will be the world’s longest regular flight ever made with a 737 at approximately 6,079 kilometers. Also in June, GOL announced the launch of its 14th international destination: Quito, Ecuador. Three weekly nonstop flights from the Guarulhos International Airport to the Mariscal Sucre International are planned for December 2018. “We will be the only airline to operate nonstop and connection-free flights between Brazil and Ecuador. Our new Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, with next-gen technology, will offer customers all the convenience and comfort of GOL's flights, including in-flight internet and entertainment, eco-leather seats with ample leg room, and free on-board drinks and meals”, concluded Kakinoff.
In July, GOL signed a new agreement to purchase another 15 737-MAX 8 aircraft, increasing the total order to 135 aircraft and converting 30 MAX 8 orders to MAX 10. The 737 MAX 10 will make it possible for GOL to comfortably add until 36 additional seats, up to until 222 passengers. The additional capacity will lead to a greater flexibility and further competitive advantage in cost, given that the MAX 10 will have a lower cost per seat when compared will all other aircraft available in the market with a single hallway. The Company plans to fly the MAX 10 beginning in 2022.
GOL continues its leadership as the lowest operating cost airline in the region for the 17th consecutive year. Its simplified, standardized fleet coupled with the Company’s lean and productive operations, provides GOL with a significant and sustainable competitive advantage over its peers. In 2Q18, aircraft utilization was 11.2 block hours per day, and our load factor increased by 0.2 p.p., reaching 78.1%. “Our operating efficiency and cost advantage support our competitive position as the #1 airline in Brazil,” said Richard Lark, CFO. “We continue to reduce our cost of financing and improve our liquidity and leverage profile. Net cash flow was positive by R$158.2 million for the quarter. As of June 30, 2018, our net debt (ex-perpetual bonds) to LTM EBITDA ratio was 2.9x, and our total liquidity was of R$3.0 billion,” Lark concluded.

Net revenue in 2Q18 was R$2.4 billion, an increase of 9.0% when compared to 2Q17, with RPKs increasing by 2.5%, to 8,337 billion in 2Q18. Cargo revenues, loyalty program revenues and other ancillary revenues represented R$207.6 million in 2Q18, a 2.8% decrease compared to 2Q17, mainly due to an 8.9% decrease in the Smiles loyalty program revenues, partially offset by a 17.6% increase of cargo revenues versus the year-ago quarter.
GOL’s load factor increased by 0.2 p.p. to 78.1% in the quarter, as demand growth outstripped the increase in ASKs. Average fares increased by 6.0%, from R$268 to R$284, driving a 7.6% increase in yield. In 1H18, average fares reached R$311, a 9.8% increase y-o-y.

Total CASK grew by 5.9% compared to 2Q17, from 20.46 cents (R$) to 21.66 cents (R$), mainly due to a 31.4% increase in the price per liter of jet fuel and 12.1% depreciation of Real against the US Dollar. CASK ex-fuel decreased 1.4% y-o-y, supported by high fleet productivity and operational results from sale of aircraft, partially offset by an increase in sales and marketing costs, and higher depreciation driven by capitalized maintenance on aircraft components (including engines).
GOL’s breakeven load factor decreased by 0.4 p.p., reaching 76.7% vs. 77.1% in 2Q17, primarily due to yield growth of 7.6% in the quarter. The breakdown of the Company’s operating costs and expenses is as follows:

Aircraft fuel costs per ASK increased by 23.2% compared to 2Q17 to 7.43 cents (R$), mainly due to a 31.4% increase in the price of the liter of fuel, as a result of the 49% increase in international jet fuel prices.
Salaries, wages and benefits per ASK increased by 5.3% to 3.85 cents (R$) over 2Q17, mainly due provisions for labor contingencies and annual cost of living adjustments.
Aircraft rent per ASK increased by 8.8% in relation to 2Q17, to 2.52 cents (R$), mainly due to the 12.1% depreciation of the Real against the US Dollar.

|
Sales and marketing per ASKincreased 20.1% in relation to 2Q17, to 1.43 cent (R$), impacted by incentives directly associated with increased revenues and higher advertising costs in the period.
Landing fees per ASK increased by 13.7% compared to 2Q17 to 1.58 cent (R$), due to higher landing fees, navigation fees and airport parking fees.
Passenger costs per ASK increased 3.3% in relation to 2Q17, to 0.97 cent (R$), due to the increase in ramp costs due to the greater number of take-offs in the period, and related to reimbursement of tickets, accommodation and flights cancellations.
Services per ASK costs increased by 2.5% in relation to 2Q17, to 1.35 cent (R$), mainly due to higher contracted freight services, parcels and aircraft components, increased purchases of products and tickets from partnership companies to be redeemed in our Smiles loyalty program.
Maintenance materials and repairs per ASK decreased by 34.2% in relation to 2Q17, to 0.83 cent (R$), due to fewer checks for aircraft returns, partially offset by higher capitalization of rotable and components (including engines) repairs.
Depreciation and amortization per ASK increased 35.8% in relation to 2Q17, to 1.55 cent (R$), due to the higher capitalized maintenance on key aircraft components (including engines), which consequently, increased depreciation.
Other expenses per ASK decreased 87.6% to 0.15 cent (R$) in 2Q18 compared to 1.22 cent (R$) in 2Q17, mainly due to R$95.1 million of operational results from sales of 737 NGs.
Operating result

Cash Flow
As of June 30, 2018, total liquidity (comprised by cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash and accounts receivable) was R$3.0 billion, flat in comparison to March 31, 2018 and increased by R$1.3 billion versus a year ago.
Operating activities generated R$588.7 million in 2Q18, 16.8% up versus 2Q17, mainly due to higher operating income and actions that strengthened working capital.
Investment activities consumed a net R$430.4 million in the quarter, mainly due to a higher volume of engine maintenance R$400.7 million and R$43.3 million related to the acquisition of a spare engine for aircraft MAX. Net cash flow was positive by R$158.2 million for the quarter.
Financing activities in 2Q18 used R$245.9 million, mainly due to dividends and interest on equity of R$214.7 million paid out by our Smiles subsidiary and R$89.9 million for the tender offer payments for repurchase of Senior Notes due 2020 and 2023.

Non-GAAP Measures
To be consistent with industry practice. GOL discloses so-called non-GAAP financial measures which are not recognized under IFRS or U.S. GAAP. including “Net Debt”. “Adjusted Net Debt”. ”total liquidity”. "EBITDA" and EBITDAR”. The Company’s management believes that disclosure of non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors. financial analysts and the public in their review of its operating performance and their comparison of its operating performance to the operating performance of other companies in the same industry and other industries. However. these non-GAAP items do not have standardized meanings and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled items adopted by other companies. Potential investors should not rely on information not recognized under IFRS as a substitute for the GAAP measures of earnings or liquidity in making an investment decision.
