PANAMA CITY, Aug. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Copa Holdings, S.A. CPA, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2016 (2Q16). The terms "Copa Holdings" or "the Company" refer to the consolidated entity. The following financial information, unless otherwise indicated, is presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
- Copa Holdings reported net income of US$54.5 million for 2Q16, or diluted earnings per share (EPS) of US$1.29. Excluding special items, Copa Holdings would have reported an adjusted net income of $21.5 million, or $0.51 per share, a 47.6% decrease over adjusted net income of US$41.0 million or US$0.93 per share for 2Q15.
- Operating income for 2Q16 came in at US$34.2 million, a 30.5% decrease over operating income of US$49.2 million in 2Q15. Operating margin for the period came in at 6.9%, compared to 9.1% in 2Q15, as a result of lower unit revenues partially offset by lower unit costs.
- Operating results for the quarter were affected by realized fuel hedge losses of US$21.2 million, compared to US$21.3 million in 2Q15. Excluding these realized fuel hedge losses, operating margin for the quarter would have been 11.2% for 2Q16, and 13.1% for 2Q15.
- For 2Q16, passenger traffic (RPMs) increased 6.2% on a 0.4% capacity contraction. As a result, consolidated load factor came in at 78.3%, or 4.9 percentage points above 2Q15.
- Total revenues decreased 8.2% to US$494.4 million, as Yield per passenger mile decreased 14.0% to 11.3 cents. Operating revenue per available seat mile (RASM) decreased 7.7% to 9.3 cents.
- Operating cost per available seat mile (CASM) decreased 5.5%, from 9.1 cents in 2Q15 to 8.6 cents in 2Q16, mainly due to lower jet fuel costs. CASM excluding fuel increased 1% to 6.3 cents.
- Cash, short-term and long-term investments ended 2Q16 at US$764.7 million, an increase of US$40.8 million versus 1Q16, which represents 36% of the last twelve months' revenues.
