Aeroméxico to Channel Stock Funds Into Fleet, Logistics Growth

Grupo Aeroméxico  announced plans to expand its fleet using proceeds from its global mixed public offering on the Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV) and international markets. The offering totaled MX$5.8 billion (US$321 million), including over-allotment, and was composed of two tranches. The airline said the funds will also support investments in customer infrastructure, logistics efficiency, safety, and fleet maintenance.

According to a statement from the BMV, the capital raised will not only finance new aircraft acquisitions but also fund projects aimed at improving operational efficiency, service quality, and safety standards. Aeroméxico will also allocate part of the proceeds to meet fleet maintenance obligations.

The primary offering comprised 7 million shares, subscribed for MX$247 million (US$13.5 million), while the secondary offering included 20,463,590 shares for MX$723 million (US$39.5 million). Both domestic and international institutional investors participated, reflecting what the airline described as “broad market confidence in Aeroméxico’s operational and financial outlook.”

“The presence of a diversified investor base confirms the stock market’s support for this new stage of Aeroméxico,” the company said, adding that the Mexican Stock Exchange remains a “key financing platform for corporate growth and investor attraction.”

In its first trading session on the New York Stock Exchange, Aeroméxico’s shares rose 7.1%, closing at US$20.35 per share at 4:20 p.m. local time, after reaching an intraday high of US$20.53, according to El Financiero.

Aeroméxico currently operates in all major Mexican cities and connects the country with 43 international destinations in 22 countries across North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.
