Independent Auditors’ Report to the Board

of Directors and Stockholders of

ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and

subsidiaries (the “Entity”) which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2013

and 2012, and the the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement

changes in stockholders’ equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013

and 2012, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in

accordance with accounting International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting

Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of

consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We

conducted our audits in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we

comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the

consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated

financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks

of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk

assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the

consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but

not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Entity’s internal control. An audit also

includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates

made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit

opinion.

ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012

(In thousands of Mexican pesos)

1. Nature of business and significant events

a Nature of business - ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. (“ABC”) and Subsidiaries (the “Entity” or

“Interjet”) are mainly engaged in providing domestic and international public air transportation

services for passengers, luggage, correspondence, cargo, parcels and mail, as well as operating flight

equipment. The Entity also develops and operates centers for aircraft maintenance and air and land

personnel training. Through its associate, it is also engaged in providing ground transportation services

from various locations to the airports at which it operates. At December 31, 2013, the Entity provided

services with a fleet of 45 aircraft of which seven are owned by the Entity, 12 are under financing

leases and 26 are under operating lease schemes.

The Entity provides air transportation services to the general public and cargo transportation mainly in

Mexico under a concession granted by the Mexican Government through the Secretaria de

Comunicaciones y Transportes (the Secretary of Communications and Transportation or “SCT”),

which was granted on August 8, 2005 and had an original term of five years. The Entity requested an

extension of the concession term subject to certain requirements of Law and Regulation of Civil

Aviation. On February 12, 2010, the SCT extended the concession granted to the Entity for an

additional 30 years, which took effect in August 2010.

The main offices of the Entity are located in Ignacio Longares 102 lote 2, Manzana 2, Parque industrial

Exportec 1, Colonia San Pedro Totoltepec Toluca from Mexico City.

2. Significant events and seasonality

Seasonality

The business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Usually, air travel demand is highest during the summer

months and during the winter holiday season, particularly in international markets, because there are more

vacation trips during these periods. Busiest months in the year are July, August, in March or April (depending

on the date of Easter each year) and December, while the lower occupancy months in February, May and

September. The results of our operations generally reflect this seasonality, but can also be affected by factors

that are not necessarily seasonal, such as economic conditions, weather, delays in air traffic control and other

factors.

Acquisition of Airbus A320 NEO aircraft

On November 8, 2012, Interjet entered into with Airbus, a favorable amendment agreement to the aircraft

purchase contracts signed on October 18, 2005. Such amendment agreement establishes, among other things,

a firm commitment to purchase 40 Airbus A320 Neo aircraft, with scheduled deliveries between the second

half of 2018 and the second half of 2023. The A320 Neo aircraft incorporate the latest aeronautical

technology, providing a 15% saving in fuel consumption due to their greater range and load capacity. With

this purchase Interjet will gradually replace its current fleet with more efficient aircraft, improving its

operating profitability and maintaining a low average age for the whole fleet.

The commercial and financial conditions negotiated by Interjet with the manufacturer will enable it to access

different financing sources for the acquisition, including without limitation, export financing by export credit

agencies (ECA´s), long-term commercial bank loans, and sale and leaseback with lessors, or direct financing

from the manufacturer, all under convenient terms, which will help improve its financial profile. Furthermore,

as part of the same transaction Interjet convinced Airbus to reduce by approximately 10.89% the price of each

of the six A320 aircraft that received between November 2012 and december 2013, which represents a

significant direct benefit.

Strategic alliance with Payback

Interjet entered into a strategic alliance with Payback, a subsidiary of American Express Co., to significantly

expand its Club Interjet traveler’s program. As part of such alliance, Club Interjet members will enjoy the

benefits of a new and innovative loyalty program known as Payback, launched a few months ago, which at

the date of the accompanying consolidated financial statements has more than 2.8 million subscribers. Interjet

and Payback offer value-added to their customers and through a cutting-edge digital platform are hoping to

capture the most loyal customer base in the country. Such program is estimated to generate more than 4

million subscribers in the next six months, making it the largest loyalty program in Mexico.

New aircraft

On October 19, 2013, the Entity signed a contract with Superjet to acquire 20 SSJ100 model aircraft, whose

delivery is scheduled between 2013 and 2015. The four deliveries were between August and december, 2013.

New destinations

In 2013, the Entity began flights to Bogota, Zacatecas, La Paz, Aguascalientes, Torreon, Mazatlan,

Minatitlan, Manzanillo and Campeche.

3. Basis of presentation

a. Explanation for preparation in English

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in English for use outside of

Mexico. These consolidated financial statements are presented on the basis of Mexican Financial

Reporting Standards (“MFRS”), which are comprised of accounting standards that are individually

referred to as Normas de Información Financiera, or “NIFs”). Certain accounting practices applied by

the Entity that conform with MFRS may not conform with accounting principles generally accepted in

the country of use.

b. Working capital

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Entity has a negative working capital of $ 3,227,998 and

$1,469,400 respectively; however, management is making the necessary efforts to obtain the enough

resources to comply with its obligations. The Entity since the beginning of its operations decided to

enter into short-term loans agreements renewable every year to take advantage of lower interest rates

and to reduce the financial costs every year. In 2013, the Entity has been offered by the financial

institutions to ensure a better interest rate for a period greater than a year. The Entity is assessing the

convenience of renegotiating the short-term loans into long-term loans.

c. Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.

Page 12: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

10

i. Historical cost:

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for

assets.

ii. Fair value:

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an

orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether

that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating

the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the

asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when

pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or

disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis,

except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 2, leasing

transactions that are within the scope of IAS 17, and measurements that have some similarities

to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realizable value in IAS 2 or value in use in IAS

36.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level

1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable

and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are

described as follows:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or

liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are

observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

d. Consolidation of financial statements

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ABC and those of its

subsidiaries in which it holds control.

(1) The 90% of these companies are controlled by the Entity directly and 9% indirectly through a

consolidated subsidiary.

Balances and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated.

The noncontrolling interests in the subsidiaries are identified separately in relation to the investments

that Entity has in them. The noncontrolling interests may be initially valued, either at fair value or at

the proportional interest in the noncontrolling interests over the fair value of the identifiable assets of

the entity acquired. The choice of the valuation basis is made individually for each transaction. After

the acquisition, the book value of the controlling interests represents the amount of such interests as of

the initial recognition, plus the portion of the subsequent noncontrolling interests of the statement of

changes in stockholders' equity. The comprehensive result is attributed to the noncontrolling interests

even if it gives rise to a deficit in them.

i. Subsidiaries – The subsidiaries are all the companies over which the Entity has the power to

govern their operating and financial policies, generally because it owns more than half of the

voting stock. The existence and effects of the potential voting rights which are currently

exercisable or convertible are considered when it is evaluated whether the Entity controls other

Entity. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which their control is transferred to

Entity, and they cease to consolidate from the date on which control is lost.

The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed to the extent necessary to ensure that

there is consistency with the policies adopted by the Entity

e. Functional and reporting currency

To consolidate financial statements of foreign subsidiaries, the accounting policies of the foreign

entities are converted to IFRS using the currency in which transactions are recorded. The financial

statements are subsequently translated to Mexican pesos using the following methodologies:

Foreign operations whose functional currency is the same as the currency in which transactions are

recorded translate their financial statements using the following exchange rates: 1) the closing

exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date for assets and liabilities; 2) historical exchange rates

for stockholders’ equity, and 3) the rate on the date of accrual of revenues, costs and expenses.

Translation effects are recorded to other comprehensive income beginning on the transition date to

IFRS.

f. Statements of Comprehensive Income

Costs and expenses presented in the consolidated statements of income were classified according to

their nature because this is the practice of the sector to which the Entity belongs. We present a subtotal

for Income from operations in order to provide a better understanding of the economic and financial

performance, which is the result of subtracting service revenue, operating expenses.

g. Statements of Cash Flows

The Entity presents statements of cash flows under the indirect method. Cash inflows from interest

received are classified in operating activities while cash outflows related to interest expense are

presented in financing activities. Dividends are reported as financing activities.

13

Financial assets are initially valued at fair value. The transaction costs directly attributable to the

acquisition or issuance of financial assets (other than financial assets at fair value through profit or

loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets, as the case may be, in the

initial recognition. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets at

fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in results

Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair value

through profit or loss’ (FVTPL), ‘held-to-maturity’ investments, ‘available-for-sale’ (AFS) financial

assets and ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the

financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular way purchases or sales

of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or

sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame

established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

­ Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument

and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate

that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or

received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other

premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate,

a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognized on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those

financial assets classified as of FVTPL.

­ Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets are classified as of FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or

it is designated as of FVTPL.

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:

It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or

On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the

Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

It is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as of FVTPL

upon initial recognition if:

Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition

inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or

The financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or

both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in

accordance with the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy, and

information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or

It forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39

permits the entire combined contract to be designated as of FVTPL.

Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on

remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss

incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘other

income (expenses) - Net’ line item.

14

­ Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments

that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost

using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Interest income is recognized by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term

receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial.

­ Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end

of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective

evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the

financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

For AFS equity investments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security

below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment.

For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:

Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or

Breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or

It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-

organization; or

The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial

difficulties.

For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, assets are assessed for

impairment on a collective basis even if they were assessed not to be impaired individually.

For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognized is

the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future

cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

For financial assets that are carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as

the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future

cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such

impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all

financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced

through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it

is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously

written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the

allowance account are recognized in profit or loss.

When an AFS financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses

previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the

period.

For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the

impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring

after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed

through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the

impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the

impairment not been recognized.

Page 17: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

15

In respect of AFS equity securities, impairment losses previously recognized in profit or loss

are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment

loss is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of

investments revaluation reserve. In respect of AFS debt securities, impairment losses are

subsequently reversed through profit or loss if an increase in the fair value of the investment

can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of the impairment loss.

­ Derecognition of financial assets

The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Group recognizes its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to recognize the financial asset and also recognizes a collateralized borrowing for the proceeds received. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognized in profit or loss. On derecognition of a financial asset other than in its entirety, the Group allocates the previous carrying amount of the financial asset between the part it continues to recognize under continuing involvement, and the part it no longer recognizes on the basis of the relative fair values of those parts on the date of the transfer. The difference between the carrying amount allocated to the part that is no longer recognized and the sum of the consideration received for the part no longer recognized and any cumulative gain or loss allocated to it that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. A cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is allocated between the part that continues to be recognized and the part that is no longer recognized on the basis of the relative fair values of those parts

c. Inventories Inventories of expendable parts, accessories, materials and supplies are stated at the lower of their cost or net realizable values, using the average method. They are recognized in results as consumed, also based on their average cost.

d. Prepaid expenses The Entity makes advances for the purchase of aircraft to be recognized in the entity functional currency translated at the exchange rate of the payment date. When the financial effect is relevant, despite the advances that do not qualify as a financial asset, recognizing the implicit financing to accrue the discount interest rate implicit in the agreement. The item also includes prepayments additional minimum lease payments resulting from subtracting the payment of advances for maintenance, fair value, as described in accounting policy advances for maintenance.

e. Flight equipment, leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment

The flight equipment, adaptations, improvements and equipment are initially recorded at cost.

These assets are recorded at acquisition cost. Balances from acquisitions made through December 31,

2007 were restated for the effects of inflation by applying factors derived from the National Consumer

Price Index (“NCPI”) through that date as deemed cost in accordance with the transition elections to

IFRS applied by the Entity.

Page 18: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

16

Land is not depreciated.

The furniture and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated

impairment losses.

Depreciation and amortization is recognized to lead to results of cost or valuation of assets (other than

land) less their residual values over their useful lives using the straight line method. The estimated

useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each year, and the

effect of any changes in the estimate recorded is recognized on a prospective basis.

Average years

Flight equipment and simulator 20

Flight equipment – aircraft 19 (average)

Flight equipment – aircraft (1) 10

Leasehold improvements 20

Communication equipment 12

Airport operating equipment 10

Furniture 10

Transportation equipment 4

Computer equipment 3

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated based on their estimated useful life as owned assets

or, if life is lower, in the corresponding lease term.

The gain or loss arising from the sale or retirement of an item of flight equipment, leasehold

improvements, and furniture and equipment is calculated as the difference between the resources

received from sales and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in income.

The category includes aircraft engines, airframes, landing gear, major maintenance carryforwards and

repair costs, on owned aircraft and those obtained through leasing, which are amortized over the hours

or accumulated cycles of operation, as applicable. Considering a residual value of 15%.

(1) The limit is the physical condition of the “overhaul” (repaired replacement part). The reparable

spare parts and replacement parts whose substitution is expected in the short term are at values

similar to those existing in the market which consider the prevailing situation each year and are

estimated to be recoverable in the regular course of operations. No residual value is considered.

f. Leases

Leases are classified as finance leases when the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the Entity

risks and rewards of ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The assets held under finance leases are recognized as assets of the entity at fair value at inception of

the lease, or if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to

the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as a finance lease liability.

Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the lease obligation

so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are

charged directly against income, unless they can be directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which

case they are capitalized in accordance with the entity's accounting policy. Contingent rents are

recognized as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

17

g. Prepaid maintenance

The Entity records the amounts paid in advance for maintenance as a financial asset if it is required to

make the payment of maintenance, and has made advance payments for maintenance, that they may be

reimbursed by the lessor if the institution demonstrates that spending maintenance has been performed.

The resulting financial asset is recognized at fair value. Any difference between this and the amount

paid is considered part of the lease payments. A financial asset is classified as a receivable, and

therefore, it is recognized at amortized cost. For its part, the additional minimum lease payments are

recognized in the caption of prepayments.

When the amounts paid are not fully recoverable, the unrecoverable amounts are determined and

periodically reviewed and represent an impairment of the financial asset.

h. Other assets

Costs derived from development activities and which give rise to future economic benefits, as they

fulfill certain requirements for recognition as assets, are capitalized and amortized based on the

straight-line method over ten years. Expenses that do not meet these requirements, as well as research

costs, are recorded in operations in the year they are incurred.

On August 19, 2008, the Entity commenced operations at the Mexico City International Airport,

through a contract with Aerocalifornia, S. A. de C. V., under which the Entity acquired rights to space

and flight hours for takeoff and landing of aircraft, documentation counters for passengers and

baggage, passenger information desks on the general terminal, as well as parking facilities for short

stay and long stay, Aero cares services, baggage revision services, service corridors, telescopic mobile

service facilities, equipment and ground support services. The acquisition of these rights and other

services paid were recorded as an indefinite lived asset, which is not amortized, but is subject to

impairment testing annually. Presented in the balance sheet in the other assets line item.

i. Concession

On August 8, 2005, the Federal Government, through the SCT, granted the Entity the concession to

provide public services related to national air transportation of passengers, cargo and mail for a five-

year period. As mentioned in Note 1, in 2010, the Entity obtained an extension of the concession term

for 30 additional years.

The Entity considers that the grant qualifies as an intangible asset with an indefinite life and therefore

is not amortized and is subject to impairment tests at least annually.

j. Deposits on aircraft leases

Deposits on aircraft leases mainly represent deposits paid to lessors of the fleet rented by the Entity as

well as deposits with lessors of buildings and airport service providers. These amounts are presented

as current or non-current, based on their contractually established recovery date.

k. Impairment of long-lived assets in use

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and

intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an

impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order

to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the

recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-

generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be

identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are

allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent

allocation basis can be identified.

Page 20: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

18

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested

for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in

use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate

that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset

for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying

amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable

amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is

carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating

unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying

amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss

been recognized for the asset (or cash generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss

is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in

which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

l. Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are initially valued at fair value. The transaction costs which are directly

attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial liabilities (other than financial liabilities valued

at fair value with changes recorded through results) are added or deducted, when applicable, from the

initially recognized fair value of financial liabilities. The transaction costs which are directly

attributable to financial liabilities at fair value with changes recorded through results are immediately

recognized in results.

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities ‘at FVTPL’ or ‘other financial

liabilities’. Note 13 describe the characteristics of loans received by the Entity from financial

institutions.

­ Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities are classified as of FVTPL when the financial liability is either held for

trading or it is designated as of FVTPL.

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if: • It has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term; or

• On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the

Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

• It is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument. A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading may be designated as of FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

• Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or

• The financial liability forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or

Page 21: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

19

• It forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39

permits the entire combined contract to be designated as of FVTPL.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on

remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss

incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included in the statement of profit

or loss.

­ Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently

measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and

of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly

discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an

integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through

the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying

amount on initial recognition.

The Entity only eliminates financial liabilities when its obligations are fulfilled, canceled or expire.

m. Derivative financial instruments

The Entity enters into derivative financial instruments contracts. These instruments are negotiated only

with institutions of recognized financial strength and trading limits have been established for each

institution. The Entity’s policy is not to carry out transactions with derivative financial instruments for

the purpose of speculation.

The Entity recognizes all assets or liabilities that arise from transactions with derivative financial

instruments at fair value in the statements of financial position, regardless of its intent for holding

them. Fair value is determined using prices quoted on recognized markets. If such instruments are not

traded, fair value is determined by applying valuation techniques recognized in the financial sector.

When derivatives are entered into to hedge risks, and such derivatives meet all hedging requirements,

their designation is documented at the beginning of the hedging transaction, describing the

transaction’s objective, characteristics, accounting treatment and how the effectiveness of the

instrument will be measured.

The Entity discontinues hedge accounting when the derivative instrument matures, is sold, cancelled or

exercised, when the derivative instrument does not reach a high percentage of effectiveness to

compensate for changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item, or when the Entity decides to

cancel its designation as a hedge.

While certain derivative financial instruments are contracted for hedging from an economic point of

view, they are not designated as hedges because they do not meet all of the requirements and are

instead classified as held-for-trading for accounting purposes. Changes in fair values are recognized in

comprehensive financing results.

n. Air traffic liability and service

Ticket sales are initially recognized as a liability under air traffic liability. When the transportation

service is provided or the right to use the ticket is lost, the earned revenues are recognized and the

liability account is reduced.

Page 22: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

20

With respect to unused tickets, transportation revenues are recognized based on the itinerary date of

the last respective coupon. As a policy, the Entity does not reimburse sold tickets. Revenue from freight and excess baggage are recognized when the service is provided.

o. Frequent-flier program

The Entity maintains the Payback Program (formerly the Interjet Club Program) through which, in

exchange for an annual enrollment fee, program members can accrue 10% of their airfares (without

taxes or airport tax) to acquire tickets, pay excess baggage charges or itinerary change fees throughout

a 12-month period. The fair value attributed to these rewards is deferred as a liability and recognized

as income when the Entity has fulfilled its obligation, i.e., when rewards are utilized or expire,

whichever occurs first. The price is assigned to rewards at fair value, while the residual amount is

assigned to the ticket value.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the liability generated by this program is insignificant and is

presented under accrued expenses in the statement of changes in financial position.

p. Employee benefits from termination, retirement and statutory employee profit sharing (PTU)

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as an expense when

employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.

For defined benefit retirement benefit plans, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the

projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual

reporting period. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to

the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected

immediately in the statement of financial position with a charge or credit recognized in other

comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other

comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to

profit or loss. Past service cost is recognized in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net

interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined

benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are categorized as follows:

• Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on

curtailments and settlements).

• Net interest expense or income.

• Remeasurement.

The Group presents the first two components of defined benefit costs in profit or loss in the line item

employee benefits expense. Gains and losses for reduction of service are accounted for as past service

costs

The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position

represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Group’s defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from

this calculation is limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds

from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.

A liability for a termination benefit is recognized at the earlier of when the entity can no longer

withdraw the offer of the termination benefit and when the entity recognizes any related restructuring

costs.

Statutory employee profit sharing (PTU)

PTU is recorded in the results of the year in which it is incurred and presented under other income and

expenses in the Entity consolidated statements of operations..

Page 23: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

21

q. Provision for maintenance and return conditions

When an operating lease establishes a future major maintenance obligation, the provision is calculated

by independent actuaries. In this case, the Entity records the best estimate of the future obligation if the

following assumptions are fulfilled:

I. A current obligation (whether legal or assumed) payable by the Entity exists as the result of a

past event;

II. The disbursement of economic resources as a means of settling this obligation is likely, and

III. The obligation can be fairly estimated.

The obligation established in lease contracts generally involves returning, in minimum performance

conditions, main components like engines, auxiliary power units (APU), major maintenance (1.e. C-

Checks), landing gear, repainting or shared maintenance costs (when usage exceeds a given level), as

detailed in each particular lease contract.

It is usually fairly clear whether a return obligation condition has been activated under the terms of the

lease contract for each component by matching return conditions with monthly aircraft condition

records.

When the existing condition of a leased aircraft component does not meet the return conditions

stipulated in the lease contract, the Entity has the obligation to settle the major maintenance costs

incurred for the component or make a payment to the lessor. Accordingly, it must create a provision

for the obligation established for this purpose in lease contracts.

A provision is recorded for the minimum amount required for the next maintenance program to return

significant aircraft components to a performance level in compliance with return conditions. This is the

case because the minimum disbursement required for the next major maintenance program or the

minimum amount payable to the lessor is the only contractual obligation established for the Entity,

which is fulfilled (at least temporarily) by the next major maintenance program implemented to return

components to a performance level exceeding lease contract requirements. This provision is discounted

at current value if the effect is material and classified as short and long-term based on estimated

maintenance dates.

The related provision for maintenance and return conditions is computed by independent actuary on

the basis of the lease agreements.

r. Provisions

Provisions are recognized for current obligations that arise from a past event, that are probable to result

in the use of economic resources, and that can be reasonably estimated.

s. Income taxes

The expense for taxes on income represents the sum of current taxes on income and deferred taxes on

income.

­ Current taxes

Current income taxes, calculated as the higher of the regular Mexican income tax (“ISR”) or the

Business Flat Tax (“IETU”), are recorded in the results of the year in which they are incurred.

Page 24: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

22

­ Deferred income taxes

Deferred income tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of

assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases

used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred income tax liabilities are generally

recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred income tax assets are generally

recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable

profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Such deferred income tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference

arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities

in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition,

deferred income tax liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the

initial recognition of goodwill.

As a consequence of the 2014 Tax Reform , as of December 31, 2013 deferred IETU is no

longer recognized.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with

investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the

Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the

temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from

deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only

recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against

which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the

foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting

period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will

be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the

period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that

have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred income tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that

would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to

recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

­ Current and deferred income taxes

Current and deferred income tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to

items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case,

the current and deferred income tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or

directly in equity respectively. Where current income tax or deferred income tax arises from the

initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the

business combination.

t. Transactions in foreign currency

The individual financial statements of each of the Entity's subsidiaries are prepared in the currency of

the primary economic environment in which the Entity operates (its functional currency). For the

purpose of the consolidated financial statements, results and the financial position of each entity are

expressed in Mexican pesos, the Entity's functional currency and also the presentation currency of the

consolidated financial statements.

Page 25: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

23

In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other

than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange

prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items

denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary

items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates

prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in

terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences on monetary items are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they

arise except for:

­ Exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings relating to assets under construction for

future productive use, which are included in the cost of those assets when they are regarded as

an adjustment to interest costs on those foreign currency borrowings.

­ Exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for

which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net

investment in the foreign operation), which are recognized initially in other comprehensive

income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of the monetary items.

For the purposes of presenting these consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the

Group’s foreign operations are translated into Currency Units using exchange rates prevailing at the

end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates

for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the

exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are

recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (and attributed to non-

controlling interests as appropriate).

u. Revenue recognition – The Entity recognizes sold, unused transportation as a liability and recognizes

the respective revenues when the transportation service is provided or the respective utilization right is

lost. In the case of the Club Interjet® Program, the Entity defers the estimated fair value of rewards (by

determining the fair value of the ticket in a residual manner) as a liability; but subsequently recognizes

this amount as revenue when rewards are utilized or expire, whichever occurs first.

5. Judgments and estimates

In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 4, the Entity’s management

are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and

liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are

based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ

from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting

estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period,

or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods:

a. Lease classification – For accounting purposes, lease contracts are classified as operating or capital

leases by considering the extent to which the Entity obtains the risks and rewards inherent to the

ownership of aircraft and other leased goods, and depending on the substance of the transaction rather

than its legal form. As this determination requires that management use its judgment, the Entity has

established internal evaluation criteria. For example, the Entity evaluates the lease contract period, the

economic life of the leased asset, the current value of minimum contract payments and the asset's

estimated fair value, among other items, as the key factors used to classify a lease contract as an

operating or finance lease. Note 13 indicates the obligations recognized for the finance leases executed

for flight equipment, while Note 21 discloses the obligations resulting from operating leases. Lease

classification modifications can have a significant impact on the Entity's financial position and results.

24

b. Advances, the maintenance provision and return conditions - Accounting for the obligations and

rights derived from operating lease contracts requires that management utilize its judgment and

prepare estimates. Provisions are only recorded when the Entity has a contractual obligation and when

the liability amount can be fairly estimated. Estimates are prepared based on maintenance projections,

which are also utilized to determine the payment of advances. The provision is discounted by utilizing

a pretax rate of 6.05%, which reflects the risk associated with the maintenance expense. While subject

to certain conditions that require the legal interpretation of contracts, advances are recognized as a

financial asset which accrues financial income. Finally, advances and the provision are presented on a

gross basis because IFRS require this presentation unless a given standard permits or requires a net

presentation and when it is considered that the conditions embodied in these standards are not fulfilled.

Changes to the above judgments and/or estimates could have a significant effect on the Entity's

financial position and results.

c. Estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods - The Entity periodically reviews

the estimates prepared for the useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods used for flight

equipment components, adaptations, improvements and equipment. The effect of estimate changes is

recognized prospectively. Estimate changes can have a significant effect on the Entity's financial

position and results.

d. Impairment of long-lived assets in use - The Entity reviews the book values of long-lived assets in use

to determine indications of impairment. If indications of impairment are detected, it estimates the

recoverable amount, which includes the estimated fair value of the future cash flows generated by the

asset (or cash-generating unit) and their fair value. The fair value of future cash flows is based on

management's projection of future transactions, which are discounted by using a pretax interest rate

that reflects the evaluation of the amount that would be realized on the market given the value of

money over time and the specific risks related to the asset (or cash-generating unit). Management's

evaluations have not indicated any impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets. Changes to

these estimates or their underlying assumptions could result in asset impairment with a significant

effect on the Entity's financial position and results.

(2) A subsidiary had a contractual obligation, for the acquisition of 20 aircraft, which are scheduled for

delivery from August 2013 to June 2015.

9. Derivative financial instruments

As part of the Entity’s risk management program, the Entity uses financial instruments, primarily fuel

options. The Entity does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

The Entity is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its financial

instruments, but it does not expect any of the counterparties to fail to meet their obligations. The credit

exposure related to these financial instruments is incorporated in the fair value of the derivatives, represented

by a positive fair value at the reporting date, reduced by the effects of master netting agreements.

The Entity has hedged the price delivering advances fuel supplier based on previous consumption.

30

b. Categories of financial instruments

The main categories of financial instruments are:

2013 2012

Financial assets

Cash and cash equivalents $ 2,622,495 $ 1,483,739

Loans and receivables

Accounts receivable 413,436 290,387

Due from related parties 11,207 11,207

Prepaid maintenance 2,355,717 1,652,835

Deposits on aircraft leases 461,739 467,369

Financial liabilities

At amortized cost:

Notes payable to financial institutions 10,457,678 8,741,665

Accounts payable 599,285 442,280

Other accounts payable and accrued expenses 345,341 210,513

c. Financial risk management objetives

The Group’s Corporate Treasury function provides services to the business, co-ordinates access to

domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the

operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and

magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and other

price risk), credit risk.

The Group seeks to minimize the effects of these risks by using derivative financial instruments to

hedge risk exposures. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the Group’s policies approved by

the board of directors, which provide written principles on foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk,

credit risk, the use of financial derivatives and non-derivative financial instruments, and the investment

of excess liquidity. Compliance with policies and exposure limits is reviewed by the internal auditors

on a continuous basis. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including

derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.

The Corporate Treasury function reports quarterly to the Group’s risk management committee, an

independent body that monitors risks and policies implemented to mitigate risk exposures.

d. Price risk

As the Entity's main operating cost involves fuel, it is exposed to fluctuations affecting jet fuel prices.

The Entity's strategy focuses on seeking protection from significant and unexpected oil price increases,

while maintaining its competitiveness in the event of price decreases. To fulfill these objectives, it

evaluates the possibility of contracting derivative financial instruments, primarily fuel purchase

options however has hedged the price advances delivering fuel supplier based on previous

consumption.

Based on the decrease of open positions involving fuel purchase options at December 31, 2013 and

2012, the Entity's sensitivity to fluctuating oil prices does not have a significant effect on its results and

stockholders' equity .

Page 33: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

31

e. Foreign currency risk

The Entity essentially obtains its revenues in Mexican pesos. However, given that it also performs

transactions in foreign currency, mainly US dollars, to finance and lease aircraft, engines, information

systems, airport services maintenance and insurance payments, among others, it is subject to

fluctuations in the peso-dollar exchange rate.

The strategy employed to manage this risk centers on monitoring active and passive positions

denominated in US dollars, while seeking the optimum level of exchange rate risk exposure

established by the Treasury area. Likewise, the Entity periodically evaluates the possibility of

contracting derivative financial instruments, while also analyzing hedge costs and the characteristics of

financial instruments which are regularly available on the market. The Entity does not currently have

hedges based on derivative financial instruments.

Note 18 indicates the Entity's foreign currency positions at December 31, 2013, and 2012, together

with the exchange rates in effect at those dates and the transactions performed during the year ended

December 31, 2013.

A devaluation/revaluation of 1 peso per dollar, which represents management's evaluation of the

possible change in the exchange rate of these currencies, would represent an increase/decrease in the

Entity 's results and stockholders' equity of approximately $102,000 for the year ended December 31,

2013 and 2012, respectively.

The above sensitivity analysis is performed based on the position of financial instruments denominated

in US dollars at December 31, 2013 and 2012; however, it may not represent the exchange rate risk of

the period due to the variance of the Entity's net position in that currency.

f. Interest rate risk

The Entity has limited its interest rate exposure because all its aircraft capital leases are contracted at a

fixed rate. Other loans contracted with financial institutions to acquire aircraft and working capital are

subject to variable interest rates. However, although the Entity maintains cash equivalents and

variable-rate instruments, given the low materiality of these amounts as regards its financial statement,

it considers the interest rate risk to be insignificant.

When contracting a financial liability, the Entity analyzes the possibility of contracting a fixed or

variable rate by considering contractual requirements, market rate trends and the cost of contracting

fixed rates, among other elements.

Note 13 details the loans contracted with financial instruments at December 31, 2013, December 31,

2012.

An increase/decrease of 100 TIIE rate basis points, which represents management's evaluation of the

possible change to this rate, would result in a decrease/increase of the Entity's results and stockholders'

equity of approximately $19,933 and $6,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012,

respectively.

An increase/decrease of 50 LIBOR rate basis points, which represents management's evaluation of the

possible change to this rate, would result in a decrease/increase of the Entity's results and stockholders'

equity of approximately $42,322 and $14,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012,

respectively.

Page 34: ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V., and Subsidiaries · ABC Aerolíneas, S. A. de C. V. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 2013

32

The above sensitivity analyses are performed based on the portion of variable-rate financial

instruments at December 31, 2013 and 2012. However, they may not represent the Entity's interest rate

risk of the period due to the variance of balances subject to this exposure.

g. Crédit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in

financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy

counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk

of financial loss from defaults. The Group only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent of

investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating agencies where

available and, if not available, the Group uses other publicly available financial information and its

own trading records to rate its major customers. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its

counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread

amongst approved counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are

reviewed and approved by the risk management committee annually.

The credit risk derived from cash and cash equivalents, credit card accounts receivable, maintenance

advances and guarantee deposits is limited because the Entity has the policy of only performing

transactions with parties with high credit ratings and acknowledged prestige.

Accounts receivable are mainly composed by accounts receivable from customers and credit cards. In

the case of customers, the Entity has implemented credit approval and follow-up processes. Credit card

transactions involve Visa, Master Card and American Express, all of which have high credit ratings. In

the case of Visa and Master Card, the Entity receives payment within 24 hours after the charge is

applied to the credit card. However, in the case of American Express, payment can take up to 14 days.

Interest is not charged on accounts receivable.

h. Liquidity risk

The Entity's main source of liquidity is the cash generated by its transactions. Furthermore, in the past,

it has also resorted to the capital contributions of its controlling stockholders and sales contracts

embodying lease obligations to finance aircraft.

As Finance Management is ultimately responsible for managing the Entity's liquidity, it establishes

working capital control and follow-up policies which enable it to administer short, medium and long-

term financing requirements. Cash flow statements are periodically prepared to manage risk and

maintain adequate reserves; likewise, the Entity also contracts credit lines and plans its investments.

Note 13 details the financing contracted by the Entity and its maturities. The following table indicates

the contractual maturities of the Entity's financial liabilities; it was prepared based on undiscounted

cash flows at the initial date on which payment could be requested. This table also includes principal

and interest payments, which were determined by using the TIIE and LIBOR spot rates in effect at

December 31, 2013.

i. Fair value of financial instruments

­ Fair value of financial instruments recorded at their applied cost

The Entity's main financial instruments are valued at their applied cost because they are

composed by accounts receivable and liabilities considered at their applied cost. With the

exception of loans contracted with financial institutions, management considers that the book

values of these financial assets and liabilities reflect their fair values given their nature and

short-term maturities. Furthermore, the Entity also considers that maintenance advances reflect

their fair value because the credit risk of the counterparties to which these advances were paid

has not changed.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively the fair value of loans contracted with financial

institutions is estimated at approximately $11,356,001 and $8,847,252, respectively.

­ Fair value valuation techniques and assumptions

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is determined in the following manner:

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities with standard terms and conditions and

which are traded on liquid active markets are determined based on quoted market prices.

The fair value of other assets and liabilities is calculated by using generally accepted

price determination models based on the analysis of undiscounted cash flows.

The fair value of loans contracted with financial institutions was specifically determined by

utilizing a revenue approach and discounting the contractual cash flows of these liabilities at the

current rates estimated by the Entity. These current rates were calculated by considering the

loans most recently contracted by the Entity with financial institutions and which were adjusted

according to the specific conditions of each loan and the respective guarantees. Accordingly,

the Entity utilized the 5.12%, 7.7% rates for loans denominated in Mexican pesos, loans

denominated in US dollars guaranteed by aircraft and unsecured loans denominated in US

dollars, respectively. This valuation is considered as Level 3 according to the hierarchy

described below.

­ Fair value hierarchy

The Entity classifies the fair value valuations recognized in the statement of changes in

financial position by using three hierarchical levels based on valuation data. When a valuation

utilizes information from different levels, the overall valuation is classified at the lowest level

of the relevant data:

Level 1: fair value valuations are those derived from the prices (unadjusted) quoted on

active markets for liabilities or other identical assets;

Level 2: fair value valuations are those derived from indicators other than the quoted

prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, whether

directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3: fair value valuations are those generated by valuation techniques which include

indicators for assets and liabilities that are not based on observable market information

(unobservable indicators).

15. Employee benefits

a. Net period cost for obligations resulting from the seniority premiums and retirement payments was

$1,628 and $2,314, in 2013 and 2012.

This plan also provides seniority premium benefits, which consist of a lump sum payment of12 days’

wage for each year worked, calculated using the most recent salary, not to exceed twice the minimum

wage established by law. The related liability and annual cost of such benefits are calculated by an

independent actuary on the basis on formulas defined in the plans using the projected unit credit

method.

Other disclosures are considered unimportant in terms of their nature and amount.
