Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacifico Announces Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2025
GUADALAJARA, Mexico, Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: PAC; BMV: GAP) (“the Company” or “GAP”) reports its consolidated results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025 (4Q25). Figures are unaudited and prepared following International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
Summary of Results 4Q25 vs. 4Q24
Company’s Financial Position:
During the 4Q25, total aeronautical revenues increased compared to 4Q24, primarily driven by the implementation in Mexico of the airport tariffs approved for the 2025–2029 period, as well as the opening of new routes. This effect was partially offset by the decrease in passenger traffic in Jamaica, resulting from the impact of Hurricane Melissa on the island in October 2025. Montego Bay Airport was affected, sustaining damage to the terminal building, equipment, and operational areas. As a precautionary measure, the airport suspended operations on October 26, 2025, resuming them on November 1. Kingston Airport experienced minor impacts and only required the preventive closure of its facilities on October 25, resuming regular operations on October 29. The recovery of passenger traffic in Jamaica will largely depend on the pace of restoration of the country’s hotel and tourism infrastructure.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company reported a financial position of Ps. 10,453.2 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Passenger Traffic
During 4Q25, the 14 airports operated by GAP recorded a decrease of 139.6 thousand total passengers, representing a 0.9% decrease compared to 4Q24.

Figures expressed in thousands of Mexican pesos.
‐ Revenues from improvements to concession assets 1
Revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12) decreased by Ps. 644.3 million, or 25.6%, compared to 4Q24. The change was composed of:
1 Revenues from improvements to concession assets are recognized in accordance with International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee 12 “Service Concession Arrangements” (IFRIC 12). However, this recognition does not have a cash impact or impact on the Company’s operating results. Amounts included as a result of the recognition of IFRIC 12 are related to construction of infrastructure in each quarter to which the Company has committed. This is in accordance with the Company’s Master Development Programs in Mexico and Capital Development Programs in Jamaica. All margins and ratios calculated using “Total Revenues” include revenues from improvements to concession assets (IFRIC 12), and, consequently, such margins and ratios may not be comparable to other ratios and margins, such as EBITDA margin, operating margin or other similar ratios that are calculated based on those results of the Company that do have a cash impact.
Total operating costs decreased by Ps. 55.0 million, or 0.9%, compared to 4Q24, mainly due to a Ps. 644.3 million, or 25.6%, decrease in the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12). This effect was partially offset by higher technical assistance and concession fees, which together increased by Ps. 87.5 million, or 9.6%; a Ps. 426.8 million, or 28.1%, increase in the cost of services; and a Ps. 35.3 million, or 3.8%, increase in depreciation and amortization. Excluding the cost of improvements to concession assets (IFRIC-12), operating costs increased by Ps. 589.3 million, or 18.0%, compared to 4Q24.

In 4Q25, net and comprehensive income decreased by Ps. 735.9 million, or 32.4%, compared to 4Q24, mainly due to a Ps. 351.6 million increase in foreign currency translation losses versus the same period of last year.
During 4Q25, net income decreased by Ps. 377.8 million, or 17.4%, compared to 4Q24. Income tax for the period increased by Ps. 176.5 million, composed of a Ps. 108.3 million increase in current income tax and a Ps. 68.2 million decrease in deferred tax benefit. This was mainly due to a decrease in the application of tax loss carryforwards for Ps. 80.1 million, compared to 4Q24, and a lower inflation effect, which decreased from 1.5% in 4Q24 to 1.3% in 4Q25.
Consolidated Results for the Twelve Months of 2025 (in thousands of pesos):
- Net income and comprehensive income per share for 2025 and 2024 were calculated based on 505,277,464 shares outstanding.
