The financial trajectory reflects a transition from a period of severe operational distress to a state of relative stability and consistent profitability. A structural shift in revenue composition and a significant reduction in the proportional impact of operating expenses have been the primary drivers of this recovery.

Revenue Composition Trends
Passenger revenue has evolved from 71.90% of total operating revenue to a dominant share, consistently exceeding 90% from mid-2022 onwards. Conversely, cargo revenue, which peaked early in the period at 15.43%, has experienced a sharp and sustained decline, stabilizing between 2.30% and 3.55% in later quarters. Other operating revenue has also diminished from an initial 12.67% to a range of approximately 6%.
Operating Expense Management
A substantial reduction in the cost-to-revenue ratio is observed across several key line items. Salaries and related costs decreased from a peak of -69.05% to a stabilized range between -26% and -31%. Depreciation and amortization costs similarly fell from -19.34% to approximately -5%. Regional capacity purchase expenses followed a similar downward trend, moving from -14.87% to around -4%.
Fuel Cost Volatility
Aircraft fuel remains a volatile expense, fluctuating between -18.21% and -31.46%. A peak in fuel intensity occurred in June 2022 at -31.46%, followed by a period of relative moderation, though costs remain a significant variable impact on the operating margin.
Operating Profitability
Operating income has shifted from a deep deficit of -42.87% to a consistently positive margin. Since late 2022, operating margins have generally fluctuated between 6.20% and 12.87%, indicating a successful restoration of core operational viability.
Non-Operating and Net Results
The burden of net interest expense has diminished significantly, falling from -10.43% of revenue to -1.61% by the end of the period. This reduction in financial leverage costs, combined with stabilized operating margins, has resulted in a transition from a net loss of -42.13% to a consistent net income range of 4% to 8% of operating revenue.
