MANAGEMENTS COMMENTS ON 2Q05 RESULTS |
GOLs performance in the second quarter of 2005 demonstrated the Companys ability to grow capacity significantly while maintaining profitability, even during periods of extremely high fuel prices. GOL remains committed to its virtuous cycle of maintaining low costs, allowing us to offer the lowest fares and achieve the highest load factors in the Brazilian market, thereby driving industry-leading profitability, commented Constantino de Oliveira Junior, GOLs CEO. Mr. Oliveira added, Through the addition of aircraft and flight frequencies during the quarter, GOL significantly increased its domestic market share to 29% and achieved a position as the second-largest domestic airline in Brazil.
GOLs results in the second quarter of 2005 were in line with the guidance that the Company had articulated to the market. GOL continued to show the highest load factors in the Brazilian market and the highest aircraft utilization in the world, while maintaining market cost leadership. During the quarter, GOLs load factor increased 3.7 percentage points to 73%, aircraft utilization remained at 14 block hours per day, while operating costs decreased, excluding fuel.
Jet fuel per available seat kilometers (ASK) increased 33% year-over-year and accounted for a 9%, or $1.3 cents (R$) per ASK, increase in GOLs operating cost per seat kilometer (CASK) to 15.5 cents (R$). GOLs non-fuel CASK, at 9.2 cents (R$), showed significant improvement. Non-fuel CASK decreased 3% in the year-over-year comparison, despite a 49% 2Q05 increase in employees in preparation for our planned 65% capacity expansion in 2H05, a 5.8% inflation adjustment on salaries effected in 4Q04, provisions for employee profit sharing, a 46% increase in fleet size, and a 26% increase in average landing fees.
Cost reductions were driven by increased productivity, reductions in sales expenses and a 19% Brazilian Real appreciation. The 33% increase in fuel CASK contributed to the 8% reduction in operating profits. Fuel-neutral operating income increased 38% in the year-over-year comparison. Using 2Q04 fuel costs, pro-forma operating income was R$128mm in 2Q05, representing a 23% operating margin. The Company has hedged approximately 55% of its short-term fuel price exposure for 3Q05. Our absolute market cost leadership, represented by a stage-length adjusted CASK more than 30% lower than our closest competitor, is key to our virtuous cycle, and allows us to provide the lowest fares and the best customer value proposition in the market, commented Richard Lark, GOLs CFO.
In terms of future perspectives, besides maintaining high levels of productivity and profitability, short-term growth will be driven by the addition of new aircraft, new destinations and new frequencies in existing routes. The addition of eight Boeing 737 aircraft to the fleet in the second half of 2005 will increase seat capacity by 65% year-over-year.
GOL remains committed to its strategy of profitable expansion through a low cost structure and high quality customer service. We are very proud that more than 30 million customers have chosen to fly GOL, and we continue to make every effort to offer them the best in air travel: new planes, frequent flights in the main markets, an ever-expanding route system and lower prices; all of which is delivered by our dedicated team of employees who are key to our success," stated Mr. Oliveira. By remaining focused on our business model, while continuing to grow, be innovative and provide the lowest fares, we will further create value for our customers, employees and shareholders.

REVENUES |
Net operating revenues, 93% of which are revenues from passenger transportation, increased 40.3% to R$524.5mm, primarily due to higher revenue passenger kilometers (RPK), offset by lower yields. RPK growth was driven by a 38% increase in departures, as well as an increase in load factor from 68.9% to 72.6% . RPKs grew 57.3% to 2,239 million, and revenue passengers grew 45.9% to 3.1 million.
Average fares decreased 3.6% from R$181 to R$175, principally due to our March fare re-alignment. Yields declined 11.0% to 23.40 cents (R$) per passenger kilometer, due to our focus on reducing fares, as well as increased price competition during the quarter due to the end of the TAM-Varig code share (which had been in effect since 2003).
Complementing net operating revenues, cargo transportation activities primarily contributed to the expansion of other operating revenues, which increased from R$11.7mm to R$37.7mm.
The 49.4% year-over-year capacity expansion, represented by ASK, facilitated the addition of 52 new flight frequencies (including 26 night flights) and one new destination in 2Q05. The addition of an average of four operating aircraft during the quarter (from 22 to 32 aircraft in the year-over-year comparison) drove the ASK increase.
Operating revenue per available seat kilometer (RASK) decreased 2.4% from R$18.67 cents in 2Q04 to R$18.22 cents in 2Q05.
The growth in RPKs resulted in a higher domestic market share for GOL, reaching 29% in the end of 2Q05, compared to 22% in the end of 2Q04. Through its first regular international flights to Buenos Aires, Argentina, GOL achieved an international market share of 2% in the same period. Approximately 5% of GOLs total RPKs were related to Brazil-Buenos Aires passenger traffic.
OPERATING EXPENSES |
Operating expenses per ASK decreased by 2.7%, excluding fuel, in the quarter. Total CASK increased 9.0%, to 15.5 cents (R$), primarily as a result of increases in aircraft fuel expenses per ASK, partially offset by a higher productivity and by a greater dilution of our fixed costs over a higher number of ASKs. Total operating expenses increased 63%, reaching R$477.2mm, due to extremely high fuel prices and the expansion of our operations (fleet and headcount expansion, a higher volume of landing fees and marketing activities). Over the quarter, fuel price increases led to an increase of R$95.5mm in operating expenses. Breakeven load factor increased from 54% to 62%.
Results from GOLs operating expense (jet fuel and USD-related) hedging programs are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 133 (Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No 133), Accounting of Derivatives and Hedging Activities.

Salaries, wages and benefits expenses per available seat kilometer (ASK) increased 25.3% to 1.83 cents (R$) due to a 5.8% inflation adjustment on salaries in 4Q04, a R$4.5mm provision for our employee profit sharing program (2004 profit sharing was expensed in 4Q), and to a 49.1% increase in the number of full-time equivalent employees, from 2,685 to 4,002, related to capacity expansion.
Aircraft fuel expenses per ASK increased 32.8% over 2Q04 to 6.24 cents (R$), due to higher fuel prices per liter. The average fuel cost per liter increase of 20% compared to 2Q04 was primarily due to the 39% increase in the international price for crude oil (WTI), partially offset by the 19% Brazilian Real appreciation. GOLs hedging program, in conjunction with its fuel efficient fleet and intelligent yield management, has helped to mitigate against increases in jet fuel prices. The Company has hedged approximately 55% of its fuel requirements for 3Q05.
- 5 / 20 -
Aircraft rent per ASK decreased 15.5% to 2.02 cents (R$) in 2Q05 primarily due to a high aircraft utilization rate (14 block hours per day), and a 19% appreciation of the Brazilian Real during the period. GOLs high aircraft utilization rates are attributable to our standardized fleet, which reduces complexity and turnaround times, and allows an increase in the number of daily flights per aircraft and a 24-hour per day utilization for over 25% of the fleet.
Aircraft insurance expenses per ASK decreased 17.2% due to a reduction in average premium rates, the 19% appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the US dollar, and a higher aircraft utilization rate.
Sales and marketing expenses per ASK decreased 1.9% to 2.55 cents (R$) primarily due to reductions in sales commissions. GOL booked a majority of its ticket sales through a combination of its website (78% during 2Q05) and its call center (9% during 2Q05).
Landing fees per ASK increased 7.8% to 0.69 cents (R$), due to a 38% increase in departures and a 26% increase in average landing tariffs.
Aircraft and traffic servicing expenses per ASK decreased 31.2% to 0.64 cents (R$), as a result of higher productivity and reduced costs of third-party service contracts.
Maintenance, materials and repairs per ASK increased 100.0% to 0.34 cents (R$), primarily due to a one-time insurance re-imbursement in 2Q04 for extraordinary repair services performed in 1Q04 on aircraft GOO, offset by the 19% appreciation of the Brazilian Real.
Depreciation per ASK was 0.27 cents (R$), an 17.4% increase, due to a higher volume of fixed assets, particularly spare parts inventory and, to a lesser extent, the increase of our technology equipment, due to our expansion of operations.
Other operating expenses per ASK were 0.64 cents (R$), a 16.9% decrease when compared to the same period of the previous year, due to higher productivity.

COMMENTS ON EBITDA AND EBITDAR1 |
The impact of a CASK increase of 1.28 cents (R$) and a 0.45 cents (R$) RASK decrease, resulted in a reduction of EBITDA per available seat kilometer from 4.72 cents (R$) in 2Q04 to 3.03 cents (R$) in 2Q05. GOL was 100% hedged on USD operating expenses in 2Q05, which resulted in R$20mm of operating losses recorded in accordance with SFAS 133. Excluding hedge results, our EBITDA was positively affected by the 49.4% increase in operating capacity, and totaled R$113.2mm compared to R$97.6mm in 2Q04.

Aircraft rent represents a significant operating expense for GOL. As GOL leases all of its aircraft, we believe that EBITDAR (equivalent to EBITDA before aircraft rent expenses) is an important measure of operating performance. On a per available
seat kilometer basis, EBITDAR was 5.05 cents (R$) in 2Q05, compared to 7.11 cents (R$) in 2Q04. EBITDAR amounted to R$155.7mm in 2Q05, compared to R$146.9mm in the same period last year.

CASH FLOW |
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments increased R$187.1mm during 2Q05. Cash from operating activities was R$36.8mm, mainly due to increased earnings from operations (R$73.4mm), partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable (R$33.7mm) and maintenance deposits (R$30.6mm) . The amount deposited for future maintenance (R$322.5mm) currently exceeds the necessary sum to maintain our aircraft due to the low average age of our fleet.
Cash used in investing activities was R$67.5mm, consisting primarily of advances for aircraft acquisition (R$44.9mm) and acquisition of property and equipment (R$28.3mm) . Part of the Companys cash (R$106.6mm) was invested in highly-liquid short-term instruments with maturities above 90 days. For full-year 2005 we expect capital expenditures of approximately R$300mm, mainly due to increases in advances for aircraft acquisition.
Cash from financing activities during 2Q05 was R$217.8mm, consisting primarily of R$256.7mm in proceeds from the issuance of primary shares, offset by the payment of the fiscal 2004 shareholder dividend (R$60.0mm) .

OUTLOOK |
GOL will continue to invest in its successful low-fare, low-cost business model. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to expand our operations by adding new flights in Brazil where sufficient market demand exists and expanding into other high-traffic centers in South American countries. We expect to benefit from economies of scale and reduce our average non-fuel cost per available seat kilometer (CASK) as we add additional aircraft to a well-established and highly-efficient operating infrastructure. We anticipate solid third and fourth quarters, thanks to the dedicated effort of our employees in improving productivity throughout the Company.
We expect a stable foreign exchange rate environment for the second half of 2005, supported by good economic fundamentals in the Brazilian economy. We expect that high oil prices will continue to pressure our fuel costs. The scheduled addition of eight new aircraft to our fleet in the second half of 2005 will allow a 65% increase in available seat capacity over the same period in 2004.
Current guidance is based on GOLs planned capacity expansion and the strong demand for air transportation in Brazil, driven by Brazilian economic fundamentals and demand-stimulating low fares. GOL expects to finish fiscal 2005 in the upper half of its EPS guidance, representing annual EPS growth of over 40%, and earnings per ADS of over US$2.35 (based on current exchange rate forecasts). We plan to continue to popularize air travel in South America through expansion, technological innovation, improved operating efficiency, strict cost management, and the lowest prices.
