Grupo Aeroméxico (AM, México City International) has made essential moves to strengthen its financial position through a recent $1.1 billion bond issuance. This strategy focuses on refinancing existing debt, enhancing its liquidity and improving its credit profile. The bold move is not only about managing debt but also represents a broader commitment to financial stability and investor confidence. Under Barclays, the bond issuance is structured into two segments. More particularly, it consists of $500 million in five-year bonds maturing in 2029  with a yield of approximately 8.375%, and $610 million in notes maturing in 2031 with a yield of roughly 8.625%.

Aéromexico’s bond issuance and financial position

The primary objective of this bond offering is to redeem $662.5 million in senior secured notes due in 2027 which Aeromexico will allocate to general corporate purposes, enhancing its operational flexibility. Since emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in early 2022, the carrier has focused on rebuilding its financial stability through its successful U.S. public offering earlier this year. This proactive approach has caught the attention of major credit agencies. For instance, Moody’s raised Aeromexico’s rating from B2 to Ba3 reflecting a ‘positive‘ outlook. In addition, S&P Global ratings raised the rating from B to B+, describing the airline’s refinancing plan as ‘prudent‘  and confidence-inspiring for investors.

More specifically, Senior Analyst at Moody’s, Sandra Beltrán said:

“Aeroméxico’s strong operational performance since 2022 has exceeded expectations, positioning the airline to manage the additional debt within Ba3 rating metrics.”

Limitations and commitment to financial stability

Despite its ambitious plan, the bond issuance has a restricted trading structure since the Mexican National Securities Registry (RNV) has not registered the notes. Consequently, the bonds are limited to private placement under Rule 144A and Regulation S, intended for qualified institutional buyers in the US and select private investors. While the restriction limits accessibility for general Mexican investors, it allows the airline to focus on international financial markets and the United States, catering to qualified buyers with aligned financial goals.

As Aeroméxico strengthens its financial status and moves towards growth and expansion, will this renewed strategy secure its long-term stability in a competitive global aviation market? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
