AZUL stock grapples with weak liquidity, driven by a surge in gross debts. However, the company benefits from declining operating costs.
AZUL's top line is bolstered by an uptick in air travel demand. However, low liquidity is a major headwind.
Brazilian airlines Azul and Gol have informed local antitrust regulator CADE of their new codeshare agreement and do not expect hurdles to be imposed, Azul's chief executive told Reuters. The carriers, which each have around 30% of domestic market share, unveiled the deal last week, covering all domestic routes operated by one but not the other, along with their frequent flyer programs. The move also reignited speculation of a potential merger between the airlines, which would need antitrust approval.
