Singapore Airlines reports record high quarterly revenue - News & announcements

Singapore Airlines Group (SIA) posted 3.3% growth in the third quarter operating profit to $629 million. This is the highest quarterly revenue on record passenger carriage, despite declining yields due to stiffer competition. Group revenue was a record $5.2 billion for the three months ended 31 December 2024, up $137 million. Passenger flown revenue improved by $70 million (+1.7%), with SIA and Scoot carrying a quarterly record of 10.2 million passengers. Group passenger load factor declined slightly by one percentage point to 87.2%. SIA says declining yields were a result of stiffer competition. Group costs were up to $4,59 billion, driven by higher non-fuel expenditure. Still, effective cost management measures kept the rise in non-fuel expenditure below the growth in overall capacity it says. Net fuel cost was lower due to a 20.9% drop in fuel prices before hedging. The Group recorded an operating profit of $629 million for the third quarter up by $20 million compared to a year ago. Shareholder equity stood at $15.4 billion as of 31 December 2024, down $1 billion from 31 March 2024, primarily due to the redemption of the remaining Mandatory Convertible Bonds (MCBs) in June 2024. SIA is bullish on continued demand for air travel into the last quarter of FY2024/25, even as the operating landscape continues to be competitive.

Singapore Airlines reports first half results - News & announcements

Singapore Airlines Group carriers SIA and Scoot carried 19.2 million passengers in the first half of 2024, a 10.8% year-on-year increase. However due to capacity expansion of 11%, load factor dipped by 2.4% to 86.4%. SIA says demand for air travel remained healthy in the first six months as group revenue rose $335 million (+3.7%) to $9,497 million. Passenger flown revenue was up $118 million it said. Still increased competition impacted its yields, which fell 5.6%. Despite the impact of general price inflation, the Group kept the rise in non-fuel costs to be largely in line with the 10.6% growth in overall capacity. Overall, the Group recorded an operating profit of $796 million in the first half which is down $758 million from the previous year. The Group posted a net profit of $742 million, $699 million less than the previous year primarily due to the weaker operating performance. Other contributing factors included lower net interest income and a loss on disposal of aircraft, spares, and spare engines versus a gain last year. As of 30 September 2024, Group shareholders’ equity was $13.7 billion, a $2.6 billion decline from 31 March 2024, largely due to the redemption of all remaining Mandatory Convertible Bonds (MCBs) in June 2024. As of 30 September 2024, the Group’s passenger network covered 127 destinations in 36 countries and territories. SIA served 78 destinations while Scoot served 71.

Singapore Airlines Group posts record annual profit - News & announcements

Singapore Airlines Group posted its highest annual operating and net airline profits ever, earning $2.67 billion in FY2023/24. SIA and Scoot carried a combined 36.4 million passengers, which is up 37.6% year-on-year. A As a result, the Group passenger load factor was up 2.6% to a record 88%. Group revenue rose $1,2 billion to $19 billion with a double digit increase in passenger flown revenue. As of 31 March 2024, the two airlines’ operating fleet consisted of 200 aircraft with an average age of seven years and three months. In April 2024, the Group added one Airbus A350-900 and two Embraer E190-E2 aircraft to its fleet with 89 aircraft on order. The passenger network now spans 118 destinations in 35 countries and territories. For summer 2024, Barcelona, Beijing, Darwin, Hong Kong, Houston, KL, Melbourne, Milan, Perth, Rome, Seattle, Shanghai, Taipei-Tokyo (Narita), and Yangon will see an increase in services.

The aircraft will operate to existing short haul destinations such as Hat Yai, Miri, and Kuantan, as well as two routes – Koh Samui (in May 2024) and Sibu (in June 2024). The airline group says air travel demand remains strong thanks to a strong pick up in forward bookings to North Asia and South East Asia. The proposed merger of Air India and Vistara was approved by the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore in March 2024. This integration gives SIA a 25.1% stake in Air India Group.
