Operating Income for the third quarter reached R$181 million
São Paulo, November 1, 2018 - GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (“GOL” or “Company”), (NYSE: GOL and B3: GOLL4), Brazil's #1 airline, announces its consolidated results for the third quarter of 2018 (3Q18) and for the nine months of 2018 (9M18). All information is presented in accordance with IFRS, in Brazilian Reais (R$) and all comparisons are with the third quarter of 2017 (3Q17) and for the nine months of 2017 (9M17), unless otherwise stated.
Improved operating indicators: RPKs increased by 2.2% to 9.9 billion in 3Q18, mainly due to a 4.5% 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 27.44 cents (R$), an increase of 6.5% compared to 3Q17, (ii) an average load factor of 79.1%, a decrease of 1.1 p.p compared to 3Q17, and (iii) on-time performance of 92.1% in 3Q18 according to Infraero.
Strong revenue growth: the combination of higher demand and optimized pricing resulted in net revenue for the quarter of R$2.9 billion, an increase of 8.3% compared to 3Q17. Net RASK was 23.22 cents (R$) in 3Q18, an increase of 4.5% over 3Q17. Net PRASK increased 5.0% over 3Q17, reaching 21.70 cents (R$). Average fare increased by 4.2% from R$299 to R$312. GOL’s 2018 net revenue guidance is approximately R$11.5 billion.
Controlled cost environment: due to higher jet fuel prices, total CASK in 3Q18 increased 11.5% to 21.77 cents (R$) relative to 3Q17. On an ex-fuel basis, CASK fell by 3.4%. GOL remains the cost leader in South America for the 17th consecutive year.
Solid margins: While the average price of jet fuel increased by 3.7% in 3Q18 over 2Q18, the combination of stronger pricing, higher demand, and R$10 million of operating results in hedging, permitted GOL’s EBIT margin to reach 6.2% in 3Q18, the ninth consecutive quarter of profitable results. Operating income (EBIT) in 3Q18 was R$180.5 million, a reduction of 44.5% compared to 3Q17 (R$325.4 million). EBITDA margin was 12.3% in 3Q18, a decrease of 5.0 p.p. q-o-q. EBITDAR margin was 22.5% in 3Q18, down by 3.4 p.p. q-o-q over 3Q17. GOL’s 2018 EBIT margin guidance is approximately 11%.
Balance sheet strengthening: While the Real depreciated 3.8% against the U.S. dollar in 3Q18 (end of period) causing a net exchange and monetary variation loss of R$187.3 million, net debt (excluding perpetual bonds) to LTM EBITDA was 3.2x as of September 30, 2018, up versus June 30, 2018 (2.9x) and improving versus a year-ago metrics (3.4x). Total liquidity, including cash, financial investments, restricted cash and accounts receivable, totaled R$3.0 billion, flat in comparison to June 30, 2018 and an increase by R$871.6 million versus a year ago. The combination of GOL’s operational cash flow generation of R$460.8 million in the quarter and stable cash liquidity increased the Company’s financial flexibility.
Preliminary IFRS 16: As a result of the mandatory adoption of IFRS 16 as of January 1, 2019, our preliminary valuation shows an estimate of a significant reduction in adjusted net debt, as well as an improvement in the net adjusted debt to LTM EBITDA ratio.
Guidance: GOL’s 2018 and 2019 guidance is on page 17 of this document.

Management’s Comments on Results
“Our team was successful in their efforts to produce solid results this third quarter. The traditional July high season was impacted by the accelerated appreciation of the US Dollar against the Real, higher jet fuel prices and a booking curve impacted by the hangover from the nationwide trucking strike that occurred in May. However, despite this adverse scenario, we remain focused on delivering the best flight experience to our clients with a differentiated, high quality product through new, modern aircraft that connect our main markets with the most convenient schedules and frequencies, while relentlessly focusing on cost efficiency”, commented Paulo Kakinoff, CEO
Through dynamic yield management and flexible capacity management, shifting aircraft from our international to our domestic network, GOL was able to maximize results, as the strong dollar increased the demand for domestic flights. “GOL’s response was possible due to our unique and standardized fleet of 737 aircraft,” added Paulo Kakinoff, CEO.
In August, GOL received its second 737 MAX 8 aircraft, which has better fuel efficiency and range of up to 6,500 km. “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,” said Kakinoff.
In September, GOL announced the expansion of international destinations, with four nonstop flights per week to Cancun Mexico, from its Brasilia hub. The initiation of flights to GOL’s new destination in Mexico is scheduled for June 2019. These flights will be operated with new Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft that allow GOL to offer nonstop flights from Brazil to any destination in Latin America.
On November 4, GOL will initiate nonstop flights from Brasilia and Fortaleza to the international airports of Miami and Orlando. At approximately 6,079 kilometers, the Brasilia to Orlando flight will be the world’s longest regular flight made with a 737. In December 2018, GOL will begin operating nonstop flights to Quito, Ecuador, with three weekly nonstops from Guarulhos International to Mariscal Sucre International. “We will be the only airline operating between Brazil and Ecuador with no stops or connections,” concluded Kakinoff.
GOL remains as the Corporate Segment leader with 34.0% of tickets sales during 3Q18 and 32.3% of 9M18, according to ABRACORP. Also, GOL remains the lowest-cost airline in South America for the 17th consecutive year. With simplified and standardized fleet and the lean and productive operations GOL has a significant and sustainable competitive advantage over peers. “We remain committed to reduce our cost of debt and improve our liquidity and leverage profile. On September 30, 2018, the net debt (ex-perpetual bonds) to EBITDA LTM ratio was of 3.2x, and total liquidity was R$3.0 billion,” said Richard Lark, CFO.
In October, GOL successfully concluded a liability management and refinancing exercise on debentures issued by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Gol Linhas Aéreas S.A. (”GLA”), fully-amortizing the total amount of R$1.0 billion and issuing a new single series of non-convertible and unsecured debentures in the amount of R$887.5 million, resulting in a net indebtedness reduction of R$137.5 million. The new debentures were issued at a yield of 120.0% of the Brazilian CDI interbank rate (approximately 7.68% in BRL; this represents a substantial reduction compared to the retired debt, whose cost was of 132.0% of the Brazilian CDI) with quarterly interest payments of approximately R$17.0 million and semi-annually principal payments of approximately R$148.0 million (final payment to be made on September 28, 2021). "This transaction is additional deleveraging of GOL’s balance sheet and better matches GLA’s operating cash flow generation with the amortization of its liabilities,” said Richard Lark, GOL’s CFO. “The issuance reduced the Company's cost of debt and improved its credit metrics”, added Richard Lark.
Also in October, the Company announced its intention to effect a corporate reorganization, including the merger of Smiles. The Reorganization seeks to ensure the long-term competitiveness of the Group, aligning the interests of all stakeholders, reinforcing capital structure, simplifying corporate governance, reducing operating, administrative and financing costs and expenses, and increasing the market liquidity for shareholders.

Net revenue
Net revenue in 3Q18 was R$2.9 billion, an increase of 8.3% when compared to 3Q17, with RPKs increasing by 2.2%, to 9,853 million in 3Q18. Cargo revenues, loyalty program revenues and other ancillary revenues represented R$189.2 million in 3Q18, a 0.7% increase compared to 3Q17, mainly due to an increase in the loyalty program revenues and cargo revenue versus the year-ago quarter.
GOL’s load factor decreased by 1.1 p.p. to 79.1% in the quarter, as demand growth was lower in relation to the increase in ASKs. Average fares increased by 4.2%, from R$299 to R$312, driving a 6.5% increase in yield. In 9M18, average fares reached R$311, an 8.1 % increase y-o-y.

Total CASK grew by 11.5% compared to 3Q17, from 19.52 cents (R$) to 21.77 cents (R$), mainly due to a 45.9% increase in the price per liter of jet fuel and a 24.9% depreciation of the Real against the average US Dollar. CASK ex-fuel decreased 3.4% y-o-y, supported by high fleet productivity and operational results from sale of aircraft, partially offset by an increase in aircraft rent, and higher depreciation driven by capitalized maintenance on aircraft components (including engines).
GOL’s breakeven load factor increased by 3.7 p.p., reaching 74.1% vs. 70.4% in 3Q17, primarily due to operating expenses growth of 15.6% in the quarter. The breakdown of the Company’s operating costs and expenses is as follows:

Net cash flow was positive by R$128.3 million for the quarter.
Financing activities in 3Q18 used R$159.2 million, mainly due to loan payments of R$111.8 million and R$63.0 million of financial lease payments in 3Q18.

Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) Information
GOL is reporting material ESG information of interest to investors according to the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) standard for the airline industry. The Company takes steps to address the emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) from its flights and GOL empowers and inspires its customers and crewmembers to offset GHG emissions when they fly. In providing ESG information, GOL intends to encourage a stable, green, transparent marketplace.
The Company continuously looks for ways to become more fuel efficient and embrace efficient technologies. For example, early this quarter GOL announced a new contract for the acquisition of 15 additional MAX 8 jets, growing its total MAX orders to 133 jets, and the conversion of 30 current MAX 8 orders to 737 MAX 10 jets. This reflects the strategy of reducing operating costs by operating a standardized fleet and cutting fuel burn and emissions. The 737 MAX 8 consumes 15% less fuel than the 737-800 NG aircraft.
