Financial Overview
A Year of Transformation
For the year ended 30 June
2013, the Qantas Group
reported underlying* prot
before tax of $192 million,
statutory prot before tax of
$17 million and statutory prot
after tax of $6 million.
The Group made good progress in its
strategy against a challenging backdrop,
with high fuel costs, excess capacity
in the domestic market and intense
competition in the international market.
Qantas Domestic, Jetstar and Qantas
Loyalty were all protable. Qantas
International, though still loss-making,
improved its underlying* performance
by49 per cent.
Comparable unit cost* was improved by
5 per cent, reecting cost reduction and
productivity improvements across the
Group. Qantas Transformation initiatives
delivered $171 million of strategic benets
in 2012/2013, and a further $257million of
benets from ongoing cost management.
The Group has strengthened its nancial
position, with positive net free cash ow*
of $372 million at 30 June and liquidity* of
$3.4 billion, including $2.8 billion in cash.
Gross debt was reduced by $1 billion
during the year.
Net capital expenditure was reduced
by$200 million to $1.4 billion in 2012/2013,
below previous guidance. Planned
capital expenditure has been reduced
by$300 million to $1.2 billion in FY14 and
is expected to be $1.5 billion in FY15. After
a period of accelerated eet renewal,
the Group’s average passenger aircraft
age is now 7.9 years the lowest in
twodecades.
