Qantas Airways Half Year 2015 Financial Results

Key points:

·         Underlying Profit Before Tax: $367 million

·         Statutory Profit After Tax: $206 million

·         Transformation benefits: $374 million

·         Comparable unit cost reduction: 4.8 per cent[1]

·         Cash generated from operations: $1 billion

·         Positive net free cash flow: $194 million

·         Liquidity: $3.6 billion, including $2.9 billion cash

·         Earnings per share: 9.2 cents

·         No interim dividend

SYDNEY, 26 February 2015: Qantas today reported an Underlying Profit Before Tax of $367 million and a Statutory Profit After Tax of $206 million for the six months ended 31 December 2014.

This Underlying Profit Before Tax is Qantas’ best first-half performance since 2010 and an improvement of $619 million compared with the same period last year.

The main factors in the underlying improvement were:

·         $374 million - Qantas Transformation program benefits;

·         $208 million - reduced depreciation;

·         $162 million - increased revenue per available seat kilometre;

·         $59 million -  removal of the carbon tax; and

·         $33 million - lower fuel prices.

The Group achieved a 4.8 per cent reduction in comparable unit cost and a 2.1 per cent increase in revenue to $8.1 billion, driven by rapid progress with Qantas Transformation and recovering yields and loads in a stabilising environment.

The Group is now targeting $675 million of transformation benefits in financial year 2015, up from the previous target of $600 million.  Combined with the $204 million in benefits realised in financial year 2014, this will result in total benefits of at least $875 million by 30 June 2015.

All operating segments of the Qantas Group were profitable in the half, at an Underlying Earnings Before Interest and Tax level.

Qantas International was profitable for the first time since the Global Financial Crisis, with Underlying EBIT of $59 million representing a turnaround of $321 million on the prior corresponding period.  The business is expected to achieve its target – announced in 2011 – of a return to profit in financial year 2015.

In the domestic market, Qantas and Jetstar reported combined Underlying EBIT of close to $300 million.

Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said the result showed that the Group was executing the right plan with discipline and speed.

“The decisive factor in our best half-year result for four years was our complete focus on the Qantas Transformation program,” Mr Joyce said.

“It’s clear that without the impact of transformation, we would not be announcing a profit today.

“Our people have worked hard and made a huge contribution to bring about the change we need.   They deserve great credit for this result.

“What sets this transformation apart is that we are reducing costs permanently while at the same time delivering Qantas’ best ever fleet, product and service.

“We are meeting or exceeding all our targets as we build a sustainable future for Qantas with an emphasis on growing long-term shareholder value.

“Our financial position is significantly stronger because of the actions we’ve taken, and we are giving Qantas a solid foundation for growth in earnings.”

Financial Position

Qantas is de-leveraging its balance sheet and increasing its return on invested capital.

The Group’s cash flow improved rapidly compared with the same period last year, with cash generated from operations up 44.8 per cent to $1 billion.  Positive net free cash flow was $194 million.

Liquidity remains strong at $3.6 billion, comprising $2.9 billion in cash and $720 million in undrawn facilities.  Approximately one third of the Group’s fleet of aircraft is debt-free and, after a period of extensive fleet renewal, the Group’s average scheduled passenger aircraft age is 7.2 years – the youngest in more than two decades.

Planned capital expenditure is unchanged at $900 million for both financial year 2015 and financial year 2016.

Brand and Customer Satisfaction

Customer satisfaction remains at high levels in all parts of the Group and has continued to set new records in some areas.

When the Qantas Transformation program was launched, the Group made a commitment to disciplined investment in aircraft, lounges, technology and service, in order to maintain a clear brand premium over the competition.

Recent initiatives for customers include the opening of new premium lounges in Los Angeles, the launch of Qantas’ new A330 product (with lie-flat beds in business), a revitalised food and beverage service for economy passengers, the staged introduction of automatic SMS check-in for domestic passengers, and expanded inflight entertainment.

Qantas has been recognised in the Roy Morgan Customer Satisfaction Awards (Domestic Airline of the Year, Domestic Business Airline of the Year), TripAdvisor Traveller’s Choice Awards (Best Airline in Australia), Skytrax World Airline Awards (Best Airline Australia / Pacific) and the Airline Ratings awards (Safest Airline, Best Lounges, Best Domestic Airline, Best Catering), among others.

Jetstar’s brand remains among the strongest in the LCC sector, having been named best low-cost carrier in Australia and Singapore and a top five low-cost carrier globally in the World Airline Awards.

Group Performance

Qantas Domestic

Qantas Domestic reported Underlying EBIT of $227 million, an improvement of $170 million compared with the same period in financial year 2014.

The business realised transformation benefits of $127 million in the first half and achieved a 2.5 per cent improvement in revenue per available seat kilometre, with a stabilising operating environment supporting yield and load recovery.

Comparable unit costs were reduced by 4.1 per cent[2] on capacity reduction of 2.4 per cent. Increased fleet utilisation will remain a focus in the second half.

Customer satisfaction was at record levels in the December quarter, reflecting ongoing investment in aircraft, lounges, product and training, including the introduction of the new A330 product for core east-west and east coast routes.

Qantas Domestic retained an 80 per cent revenue share of large accounts in the Australian corporate travel market, including 113 account renewals, 42 new accounts, 16 accounts won back from the competition, and four accounts lost.

Resources sector and government travel demand continues to be subdued in the domestic market, but demand is stronger in other business sectors, such as financial services.

Qantas International

Qantas International reported Underlying EBIT of $59 million, a turnaround of $321 million compared with the same period last year.

Of the turnaround, $159 million was attributable to cost and revenue initiatives under Qantas Transformation.  A further $100 million was attributable to reduced depreciation following the non-cash writedown of the Qantas International fleet in August 2014.

Comparable unit costs were reduced by 3.8 per cent and revenue was increased by 4.8 per cent.

A significant increase in fleet utilisation enabled Qantas International to add seasonal or permanent capacity to destinations including Los Angeles, Dallas/Fort Worth, Vancouver, Santiago, Honolulu and Auckland.

The business continued to form new airline partnerships and expand existing partnerships in North America, South East Asia and Greater China, giving customers more destinations and increasing the Group’s reach in key markets.

Customer satisfaction has risen by 30 per cent since financial year 2012 and remains at near-record levels.  This period has seen upgrades to the B747 and A380 fleets, network improvements, the Emirates partnership, and new lounges in Singapore, Hong Kong and Los Angeles.

Competitor capacity growth in the international market has slowed significantly from the compound annual growth rate of 7 per cent seen in the five years to financial year 2014, with two per cent growth in the first half and a small contraction forecast in the second half.

Jetstar Group

The Jetstar Group reported Underlying EBIT of $81 million, an improvement of $97 million compared with the same period last year.

Domestically, Jetstar achieved EBIT of $63 million, driven by improved yields and loads and a continued focus on management of costs and capacity.

Jetstar International achieved strong earnings of $51 million, benefitting from network changes and the introduction of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner

Dreamliners will operate all Jetstar’s long-haul flights from September 2015, delivering an improved customer experience and lower unit costs.

The Jetstar brand continues to grow in Asia, where Qantas’ investments will generate long-term returns from the world’s most important emerging aviation markets.  Jetstar-branded airlines now fly to 66 destinations across 16 countries in the Asia Pacific region.

The Jetstar-branded airlines in Asia improved their performance in the first half relative to the prior corresponding period, with a $13 million reduction in Qantas’ share of losses.

Singapore-based Jetstar Asia was profitable in the second quarter, following significant capacity restructuring in the market.

Qantas Loyalty

Qantas Loyalty reported record half-year Underlying EBIT of $160 million, up 10 per cent on the prior corresponding period.

The Qantas Frequent Flyer program added more than 400,000 new members in the half to reach a total membership of 10.5 million.

Billings were up 6 per cent as Qantas Loyalty continued to diversify its customer base and revenue streams through growth ventures.

Activations of the Qantas Cash travel money and membership card were up 27 per cent from the second half of financial year 2014, with approximately $800 million loaded on the cards.  The Aquire loyalty program for SMEs is also growing strongly.  Over 55,000 businesses have joined Aquire and the program now has 21 partners.

Overall, gross profit from adjacent ventures – including Qantas Cash, Accumulate and Qantas Golf – was up 70 per cent in the half.

Qantas Freight

Qantas Freight reported Underlying EBIT of $54 million, an improvement of $43 million and its best first-half result since 2006.

International cargo markets continued to recover, accounting for $44 million of Underlying EBIT, with the China-US and US-Australia markets performing well.  The domestic market was more challenging, in line with the mixed economic environment.

Outlook

The outlook for the Group’s operating environment in the second half of financial year 2015 has improved:

·         Overall demand is stable, while demand is mixed in the Australian domestic market;

·         Domestic and international market capacity is moderating; and

·         Yield and load factors have stabilised and are in the early stages of recovery.

Subject to external factors, the Group’s operating expectations are as follows:

·         Qantas Group capacity will increase by 1.5 to 2 per cent in the second half of financial year 2015 compared with the second half of financial year 2014;

·         The Group’s full-year underlying fuel costs are expected to be no more than $4 billion at current prices;

·         The Group’s full-year depreciation and amortisation expense is expected to be $1.1 billion; and

·         All operating segments are expected to be profitable in financial year 2015.

No Group profit guidance can be provided at this time, due to the high degree of volatility and uncertainty in global economic conditions, fuel prices and foreign exchange rates

It's time to sell Boeing Share

Goldman Sachs thinks it’s time to sell Boeing.

In a note to clients on Monday, Goldman cut its rating on Boeing from Neutral to Sell, writing that:

With a sustained lower fuel price and pockets of global growth volatility, the demand equation for aircraft could worsen, and Boeing shares are highly correlated to new aircraft orders. New aircraft supply has now doubled from the trough, and growth rates should slow. We think medium-term free cash flow expectations for Boeing are too high, at a time where the 787 deferred target keeps moving higher in large chunks. We also see reach forward loss risk on the 787. We see better opportunity both through-cycle and today, in the higher margin Aerospace supply chain.

In addition to catching up to supply, Goldman notes that the decline in oil prices could change dynamics in the industry, as 50% of current plane deliveries are to replace old aircraft against a rate of 30% historically.

This push came as companies looked for more fuel-efficient planes as oil prices traded near $US100 a barrel over the last several years, but with oil prices potentially reaching a new, lower equilibrium, Goldman says Boeing is the most exposed to new aircraft demand risks.

Over the next year, Goldman thinks Boeing investors face four key risks:

A tougher aircraft demand environment due to a lower fuel price.A slower rate of growth in production of, and orders for, new large commercial aircraft.Increasing concern over large increases in deferred production for 787 jets.A potentially “less comfortable” medium-term free cash framework.

Now, for investors who have been in Boeing over the last several years, the stock has been a massive winner, as the company pays a dividend and has been buying backtons of it stock with shares rising almost 150% over the last 5 years.

In 2013 alone, Boeing shares rose 83%. But now Goldman thinks this run is over. In pre-market trade on Monday, Boeing shares were down about 1.8%.

Virgin Australia to relinquish NZ air operator’s certificate

The Pacific Blue name and colour scheme has already disappeared, and soon its New Zealand registered aircraft will be re-registered in Australia. (Rob Finlayson)

Virgin Australia plans to relinquish its New Zealand air operator’s certificate (AOC) and transfer its New Zealand-based fleet of 10 Boeing 737-800s onto the Australian register as part of plans to streamline the airline’s operations.

The 10 ZK-registered narrowbodies currently under Virgin’s NZ AOC will be progressively brought onto the airline’s Australian AOC and given VH- registrations. The first of these, ZK-PBA, was re-registered VH-VOO on January 30, according to a search of the CASA civil aircraft register database.

Once Virgin’s NZ AOC has been relinquished, Virgin will have three remaining Australian AOCs.

A search on the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) website showed Virgin’s three Australian AOCs were for Virgin Australia Airlines, Virgin Australia International Airlines and another for Virgin Australia Regional Airlines.

The 10 aircraft will also soon be reconfigured from their current 180-seat, premium economy/economy layout to the standard eight-seat business and 168-seat economy cabins on the Virgin’s Australia-based 737-800 fleet.

Virgin chief executive John Borghetti flagged the integration of the airline’s New Zealand operations “into the rest of our international business” in a bid to streamline operations at its 2013/14 full year results presentation in August 2014.

The initiative was part of Virgin’s efforts to take out $1 billion of costs over the five years to June 2017.

“Cost will be a major focus over the next three years,” Borghetti said at the time.

It is understood there will be no change to Virgin’s New Zealand-based cabin crew and pilot numbers.

However, functions such as flight planning will be transferred to Virgin’s Brisbane operations centre. Those New Zealand-based staff affected by the change were expected to be offered alternate roles and/or job placement services.

It is also anticipated there will be no changes to both Virgin Australia’s trans-Tasman services and flights from NZ to a number of Pacific Island destinations as a result of the relinquishing of the NZ AOC.

Under an open skies agreement, civil aviation regulators of Australia and NZ recognise AOCs issued by either country. This mutual recognition was first mooted in 2000 and came into effect in 2007.

For example, Jetstar operates domestic NZ flights under its Australian AOC that is recognised by the Civil Aviation Authority of NZ.

In 2003, the then Virgin Blue set up its Pacific Blue subsidiary to operate trans-Tasman services, with the first flight on January 19 2004 between Brisbane and Christchurch.

The airline was then certified to start flying within New Zealand in 2007, with the first domestic flights on November 15.

Virgin withdrew from the NZ domestic market in 2010, the year it received approval from regulators for a joint-venture partnership with Air New Zealand across the Tasman.

Qantas confirms VH-OJA final flight for March 8

Qantas’s historic Boeing 747-400 VH-OJA will fly into its new home with the Historical Aviation Restoration Society (HARS) at Illawarra Regional Airport on Sunday March 8.

The aircraft, which flew non-stop on its delivery flight from London to Sydney in 1989 and was Qantas’s first 747-400, is being retired after some 25 years’ service and has been donated to HARS.

OJA was expected to land at Illawarra Regional Airport at Albion Park south of Wollongong at about 0750 local time. The airport’s 16/34 runway was about 1,800 metres long.

The exact timing and date of the delivery flight was subject to weather conditions on the day, Qantas said on Tuesday.

The airline advised that perimeter roads around Illawarra Regional Airport will be subject to closures on the day.

According to the minutes of an extraordinary meeting of the Shellharbour City Council held on Monday February 9, the aircraft would be open to the public between 10am and 3pm each day and at other times by appointment.

“At this stage HARS have advised that there is no commercial operation to occur relating to this aircraft,” the minutes said.

“This will be a condition of the licence agreement.”

The licence to park the aircraft was valid for five years.

HARS has received an “in-kind donation” from the Council to subsidise the cost of renting the site where VH-OJA will be stationed.

The cost of the rent after the subsidy is $4,773.60 per year plus GST, the minutes said.

There was also an annual fee of $650 plus GST for the lease of airspace given part of the left wing and tail will be 6.9 metres above Airports Road.

A pilot walked away from a rough landing at Archerfield Airport that left a light plane on its side on Wednesday morning.

Archerfield Airport Corporation spokeswoman Kerry Reeves said the pilot of the plane, a Cessna 162, was not injured.

"The main runway of the airport is open to aircraft," she said.

"AAC has notified appropriate authorities and they will investigate the incident, which occurred before the control tower began operating at 7am.

"The aircraft left the runway and clipped a fence, and is extensively damaged."

It is understood a student pilot was at the plane's controls when it landed about 6am.

A Queensland Ambulance Service spokeswoman said paramedics were not called to attend the incident.

Qatar Airways unbelievable rules for women

Qatar Airways has been slammed for its treatment of female flight attendants. Picture: Michael Probst-file / AP Source: AP

IT’S one of the world’s fastest growing airlines with a modern fleet, but Qatar airlines has been rocked by reports revealing its shockingly archaic set of rules for female flight attendants.

Gulf carriers Etihad and Emirates were also blasted by the International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) for its “flagrant abuses of aviation workers” — but they named Qatar Airways as the worst.

The ITF exposed unbelievable rules in the contracts for female flight attendants at Qatar Airways including:

• Female flight attendants can only be hired if they are single

• They must remain single for five years after starting work

• If they want to get married they have to ask the airline’s permission

• Pregnancy is a breach of contract and can lead to firing
