Virgin Australia CEO, John Borghetti Virgin consolidates fragmented fare structure – looking like Air New Zealand

24-May-11 3:26 PM

Virgin Atlantic confident of prospects despite big FY2009/10 loss

6-Aug-10 11:59 AM

Having made a substantial profit of GBP60 million in 2008/09, one that put rival British Airways firmly in the shade, Virgin Atlantic had to report a loss of GBP132 million in 2009/10 – a loss equivalent to BA's, allowing for their comparative size. For the 12 months ended Feb-2010, Virgin reported an operating loss of GBP132 million, compared with a profit of GBP60 million the previous year as revenues fell by 8.6% to GBP2,537 million. This, despite airline operating costs reducing by 8%. The results were not directly influenced by cabin crew strikes at BA, which commenced in Apr-2010 but they could have been influenced indirectly, for example by passengers switching bookings in anticipation of a strike. If that was the case, the result is worse than it first appears.

Virgin Blue reported a full year net loss of AUD160 million (USD132 million) in the 12 month period to Jun-2009 (for a net margin of -6.1%), on the lower end of its AUD160-165 million forecast, hurt by falling passenger demand amid the "toughest operating conditions” in its nine year history and one-off costs (AUD74 million) associated with the launch of its long haul V Australian operations.
