See what the community is saying about Grupo Aeroméxico. de
Margins Squeezed, Despite Higher Premium Mix
- Over the last 12 months, Grupo Aeroméxico. de converted US$5.7b of revenue into US$214.9 million of net income, which works out to a 3.8% net margin compared with 6.7% a year earlier.
- Consensus narrative leans on premium products contributing about 42% of passenger revenue and loyalty coverage at 37% of customers. However, the drop in net margin to 3.8% suggests higher yielding cabins and fee income have not fully offset pressure on passenger unit revenue, which declined 4.9% year over year in 2025, and that margin expansion assumed in forecasts still has to show up consistently in the reported numbers.
- Analysts reference profit margins at 6.2% today in their models, but the reported trailing 3.8% net margin indicates a gap between modeled profitability and the latest trailing reality.
- With Q2 2026 showing a loss of US$58 million vs Q2 2025 net income of US$68.1 million, the short term pattern sits at odds with expectations that premium mix and loyalty growth will steadily support stronger net margins.
Revenue Scale Up, Earnings Forecasts Under the Microscope
- On a quarterly view, revenue moved from US$1,183.9 million in Q1 2025 to US$1,479.0 million in Q2 2026, while trailing 12 month revenue sits at US$5.7b alongside trailing EPS of US$1.35.
- Bullish analysts expect earnings to grow about 30.8% per year and reference current earnings of roughly US$340.7 million in their longer term models, which heavily supports a growth story. Yet the latest trailing net income of US$214.9 million and a Q2 2026 loss show that, for now, the business is operating below the earnings run rate assumed in the bullish case.
- The bullish view also leans on revenue growth forecasts of 6.7% per year vs a broader market benchmark of 12.7%, so even strong earnings growth in those models is being asked to come from margin uplift rather than rapid top line expansion.
- Investors weighing this will likely compare the recent swing from Q4 2025 net income of US$164.9 million to a Q2 2026 loss with the bullish expectation that profit margins rise from 6.2% to 8.4% over time.
Valuation Signals vs Balance Sheet Stress
- At a share price of US$15.50, Grupo Aeroméxico. de trades on a P/E of 10.5x compared with a cited industry average of 9.6x and a peer average of 25.5x. A DCF fair value of US$51.93 and an analyst price target of US$27.10 both sit well above the current level, alongside a 3.8% trailing net margin that has softened from 6.7% a year earlier.
- Critics highlight weak interest coverage and negative shareholders’ equity as major risk flags, and these concerns sit squarely against the otherwise supportive valuation signals, since a stock that appears roughly 70% below the cited DCF fair value and below peer P/E levels still carries material questions about financial resilience that investors must weigh against the implied upside.
- Analysts’ consensus implies about 74.8% potential upside to the US$27.10 target from US$15.50, yet inadequate interest coverage suggests current earnings leave limited room for debt servicing comfort.
- The combination of declining margin from 6.7% to 3.8% and reported negative equity means any pressure on revenue growth near the forecast 4.5% rate could matter more than the headline valuation gap suggests.
