| § | 3Q25 EBITDA reached an all-time record of R$1,987.8 million, increasing 20.2% year-over-year, representing a 34.6% margin. Operating income increased 23.7% to a record R$1,270.4 million with a 22.1% margin. |
| § | Operating revenue reached an all-time record at over R$5.7 billion, increasing 11.8% year-over-year, mainly driven by a recurring healthy demand environment, combined with the changes we made in our network, and the strong performance of our business units and ancillary revenues. |
| § | RASK was also at a record levels for a third quarter at R$44.76 cents in 3Q25, increasing 4.4% year-over-year, even with capacity growing 7.1%. Our business units’ contribution to our revenues and margins remained strong, at 25.3% of RASK and 29.7% of EBITDA in 3Q25. |
| § | Our capacity grew 7.1% year-over-year, mostly driven by a 30.5% increase from international operations. In the quarter, Azul transported 8.1 million passengers, in line compared to the same period last year. Passenger traffic (RPK) increased 9.7%, outpacing capacity and resulting in a record load factor of 84.6%, 2.0 percentage points higher than in 3Q24. |
| § | CASK in 3Q25 was R$34.85 cents, 1.6% up compared to 3Q24, mainly due to 4.8% annual inflation, a 16.7% increase in the number of legal claims related to irregular operations occurred mostly in 2024, and a 14.6% increase year-over-year in depreciation, partially offset by a 1.7% average appreciation of the Brazilian real and a 13.2% reduction in fuel price, as well as several cost-reduction strategies related to productivity. In 3Q25, productivity measured in ASKs per FTE increased an impressive 8.6%, and fuel consumption per ASK dropped 1.4% year-over-year. Compared to 2Q25, CASK was down 2.0% mainly due to cost-reduction strategies already implemented as part of our restructuring process. |

In July, Azul accessed US$1.1 billion of its US$1.6 billion DIP financing. Of this amount, US$910 million were used to pay down bridge loans, superiority notes, convertible debentures and other debts, and US$200 million became additional liquidity for Azul. Accounts receivable rose 56.7% or R$958.3 million compared to June 30, 2025, driven mainly by a deliberate reduction in factoring of credit card receivables. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held over R$1.6 billion in credit card receivables, representing a readily available source of cash that can be accessed at management’s discretion at a low spread to the risk-free rate. |
| § | Most recently, Azul achieved
a key milestone in its restructuring, reaching a global settlement with its Unsecured Creditors Committee (UCC). This agreement led to
court approval of its revised Chapter 11 disclosure statement and authorization to solicit creditor votes, paving the way toward plan
confirmation and long-term financial stability. |

Management Comments
Thanks to the passion of our crewmembers and our determination to transform Azul into an even stronger airline, we delivered another set of robust results in 3Q25. Total revenue grew an impressive 11.8% year over year, reaching an all-time record of R$5.7 billion, while our EBITDA expanded to a record of R$2.0 billion with a margin at 34.6%, reinforcing our position as one of the most profitable airlines in the world. This helped us to move forward with our plan to optimize our capital structure, which was burdened by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our strategy was not just about financial reorganization, but to re-create a robust, resilient, industry-leading airline – one that Customers will continue to love flying, at which Crewmembers will continue to love working, and that will create even more value for stakeholders.
RASK and PRASK reached record levels for a third quarter at R$ 44.76 cents and R$ 41.30 cents respectively, even with capacity increasing 7.1% year-over-year, a clear demonstration of the strength of our business model. Passenger demand grew 9.7% year-over-year, primarily driven by demand on international routes outpacing capacity growth, resulting in a record load factor of 84.6%. We are particularly encouraged by the progress in aircraft utilization, which reached 11.9 hours, a 4.1% increase over 3Q24 with further room for improvement. This outstanding performance was driven by our unique operational model and the successful execution of our optimized business plan, supported by the strength of our network, high-quality service, and operational efficiency.
We also made significant strides in accelerating the performance of our business units, which in 3Q25 accounted for 25.3% of total RASK and 29.7% of EBITDA. Azul Fidelidade, our loyalty program, continued its strong growth trajectory, surpassing 20 million members and representing 15.6% of total RASK in the quarter. Our vacations division Azul Viagens increased flown revenue by 29.5% year-over-year, driven by strong leisure market demand and supported by our dedicated vacations network. Our logistics arm Azul Cargo accelerated its growth, with total revenue up 16.5% year-over-year and EBITDA rising 24.1% over the same period.
During the quarter, we maintained our focus on cost reduction through savings measures initiated during the Chapter 11 process, resulting in a 2% CASK reduction compared to 2Q25. Productivity measured in ASKs per FTE rose an impressive 8.6% versus 3Q24, while fuel consumption per ASK decreased 1.4% year-over-year.
We closed the quarter with a liquidity position of R$3.4 billion, up 38.0% compared to 3Q24 and representing 15.9% of the last twelve months’ revenue. In July, we accessed US$1.1 billion of our US$1.6 billion DIP financing. Of this amount, US$910 million were used to pay down bridge loans, superiority notes, convertible debentures and other debts, and US$200 million became additional liquidity for Azul. We are pleased to report significant progress in our restructuring. In October, we reached a landmark global settlement with the Unsecured Creditors Committee (UCC), enabling amendments to our Chapter 11 reorganization plan and disclosure statement for Court approval. We also presented an updated business plan outlining Azul’s network and capacity strategy, along with revised estimates for cost-savings achieved through the Chapter 11 process. This plan confirms that Azul is on track to emerge with significantly reduced debt, lower lease liabilities, and substantially improved leverage, now projected at 2.5x upon emergence.
In November, the Court approved our disclosure statement, allowing us to begin soliciting votes on the plan of reorganization, and also approved our Backstop Commitment Agreement, securing US$650 million in committed support for our planned capitalization. We also entered into separate equity investment agreements with strategics partners United Airlines and American Airlines, totaling US$200 million in new funds for Azul at emergence, strengthening our capital structure and supporting the implementation of the plan. These milestones bring us closer to plan confirmation and the successful conclusion of our restructuring by February 2026.
We could not be more excited about the future. We are truly building Azul into a resilient, robust business plan focused on cash-generation, growing business units combined with industry-leading customer service and operational excellence. I want to thank our partners, crewmembers and customers for their continued support.
John Rodgerson, CEO of Azul S.A.

Operating Expenses
In 3Q25, operating expenses totaled R$4.5 billion, 8.9% higher than 3Q24. Costs per ASK (CASK) increased 1.6% to R$34.85 cents mainly explained by a 4.8% inflation in the period, a 16.7% increase in number of legal claims related to irregular operations occurred mostly in 2024, and a 30.5% increase in international capacity, which have higher rates, partially offset by a 1.7% appreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar, higher productivity and a 13.2% reduction in fuel price.
The breakdown of our main operating expenses compared to 3Q24 is as follows:
| § | Aircraft fuel decreased 8.3% to R$1,370.2 million mostly due to a 13.2% reduction in fuel price per liter (excluding hedges), partially offset by a 7.1% increase in total capacity. On a per-ASK basis, aircraft fuel reduced 14.4% mainly due to a reduction of 1.4% in fuel burn per ASK as a result of the growth in our next-generation fleet and a reduction in fuel prices. |
| § | Salaries and benefits reduced 7.9% or R$50.9 million compared to 3Q24, mainly driven by higher productivity through a reduction in FTE and 1.9% reduction in block hours, partially offset by our capacity increase of 7.1% and a 4.8% union increase in salaries as a result of collective bargaining agreements with unions applicable to all airline employees in Brazil. Salaries per ASK dropped 14.0%, driven by higher productivity and several cost-reduction strategies already implemented. |
| § | Depreciation and amortization increased 14.6% or R$91.3 million, driven by the increase in the size of our fleet compared to 3Q24 as a result of the fleet transformation process, which increased the right-of-use assets recognized at a higher foreign exchange rate, and the increase in spare engines due to supply issues with OEMs. On a per-ASK basis, depreciation and amortization increased 7.0% mainly due to the addition of 13 E2s aircraft compared to 3Q24. |
| § | Other rent & ACMI increased R$95.7 million compared to 3Q24, mainly impacted by the start of our ACMI partnership in December 2024 and higher number of engine short-term lease to mitigate irregular operations caused by OEM performance and supply issues. |
| § | Airport fees increased 10.0% or R$28.8 million and increased 2.7% mostly on a per-ASK basis, due to a 1.2% increase in domestic capacity and a 30.5% increase in international capacity, which have higher rates denominated in dollars. |
| 5 |
| | Third Quarter Results 2025 |
| § | Traffic and customer servicing increased 9.0% or R$19.9 million, primarily due the increase in international departures which have higher expenses and 4.8% inflation in the period, partially offset by the optimization of our onboard services. On a per-ASK basis, traffic and customer servicing increased 1.7%. |
| § | Sales and marketing reduced 4.0% or R$9.7 million, mostly driven by the shift to a lower capacity growth strategy. On a per-ASK basis, sales and marketing decreased 10.4%. |
| § | Maintenance and repairs reduced 12.8% compared to 3Q24, mainly due to the savings from insourcing of maintenance events and renegotiations with suppliers and the 1.7% appreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar. Maintenance and repairs per ASK decreased 18.6%. |
| § | Other increased R$337.7 million, mainly due to a 16.7% increase in the number of legal claims related to irregular operations occurred mostly in 2024, and a 4.8% annual inflation. From March onwards, we have seen significant improvement in our operational performance, which translated into an NPS recovery of almost 35 points in September 2025 compared to December 2024. |

¹ Excludes the conversion right related to the convertible debentures.
Net financial expenses were R$2,833.3 million in the quarter, mainly due to a R$1,205 million in interest on loans and financing accrued in 3Q25, R$665 million in accrued interest related to leases recognized as financial expense as determined by IFRS16 rules, R$473 million in amortized cost of loans and financing, R$98 million in financial operations costs, and R$58 million in interest on credit card receivables factoring. Excluding financial expenses related to debt that will be equitized at emergence, net financial expenses would have been roughly R$800 million.
Derivative financial instruments, net were almost zero in 3Q25. As of September 30, 2025, Azul had hedged approximately 6% of its expected fuel consumption for the next twelve months by using forward contracts, options, and pre-determined pricing agreements with our fuel suppliers.
Foreign currency exchange, net registered a net gain of R$918.7 million in 3Q25 due to the 2.5% end of period appreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar versus 2Q25, resulting in a decrease in lease liabilities and loans denominated in foreign currency.

Liquidity and Financing
Azul ended the third quarter with total liquidity of R$8.8 billion including short-term investments, accounts receivable, security deposits and maintenance reserves. Immediate liquidity as of September 30, 2025 was R$3.4 billion, representing 15.9% of our LTM revenues. In July, Azul accessed US$1.1 billion of its US$1.6 billion DIP financing. Of this amount, US$910 million were used to pay down bridge loans, superiority notes, convertible debentures and other debts, and US$200 million became additional liquidity for Azul.
Accounts receivable rose 56.7%, or R$958.3 million, compared to June 30, 2025, driven mainly by a deliberate reduction in the factoring of credit card receivables. In Brazil, these receivables are predominantly tied to tickets already flown, eliminating cardholder credit risk and allowing for immediate access to funds without holdbacks. This structure provides Azul with significant liquidity flexibility, as receivables can be advanced at minimal cost when needed. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held over R$1.6 billion in credit card receivables, representing a readily available source of cash.

Compared to 2Q25, gross debt increased R$2,904.8 million to R$37,315.2 million, mostly due to the roughly R$6.0 billion DIP financing raised in the quarter as part of our restructuring process, partially offset by the bridge loan and superpriority note repayment, and the 2.5% end of period appreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar, which decreased our dollar-denominated lease liabilities and loans. Excluding lease liabilities that will be extinguished and loans and financing that will be equitized, our gross debt would have been around R$20 billion.

As of September 30, 2025, Azul’s average debt maturity excluding lease liabilities and convertible debentures was 2.0 years, with an average interest rate of 13.2%. Average interest rate on local and dollar-denominated obligations were equivalent to CDI + 4% and 13.0% respectively.
Azul’s leverage ratio measured as net debt to LTM EBITDA was 5.1x, mainly due to the appreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar this year, which impacted our dollar-denominated debt, in addition to the R$6.0 billion debt raised in the quarter as part of our restructuring plan. This leverage does not consider the conversion of the 1L and 2Ls into equity as part of the Chapter 11 plan, which is expected to reduce leverage to 2.5x at emergence.
