Business Context and Reporting Period
This Form 6-K filing by Pacific Airport Group (GAP) covers the month of October 2012, specifically dated October 4, 2012. GAP operates 12 airports in Mexico's Pacific region, including major hubs in Guadalajara and Tijuana, and tourist destinations such as Puerto Vallarta and Los Cabos. The filing addresses a corporate action regarding a capital reduction approved at an Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting on September 25, 2012.
Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide standard operating financial metrics such as revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, or debt levels for the reporting period. The only specific financial figures disclosed relate to a capital reduction transaction:
- Total Capital Reduction Amount: Ps. 870,000,000.00 (Eight Hundred Seventy Million Pesos).
- Payment per Share: Ps. 1.639281 per share outstanding.
- Payment Status: Funds were deposited with INDEVAL (Instituto para el Depósito de Valores) on October 3, 2012, but disbursement to shareholders has been suspended.
Material Changes and Developments
The primary material change reported is the suspension of a shareholder cash distribution due to legal intervention. While GAP complied with the shareholder resolution by depositing funds for the capital reduction, INDEVAL suspended the disbursement following a judicial injunction. On October 3, 2012, the 50th Judge from the Mexico City Civil Court ordered GAP, INDEVAL, and the Mexican Stock Exchange to immediately and unconditionally suspend the resolutions adopted on September 25, 2012. The filing notes that Grupo Mexico filed a recent development regarding this injunction.
