Air New Zealand Profit Drops 15% on Engine Woes as Airline Names New CEO

The result slightly topped Visible Alpha forecasts, signaling pressure was anticipated.

Overview

  • The carrier posted earnings before tax of NZ$189 million for the year ended June 30, 2025, down from NZ$222 million but slightly above the Visible Alpha consensus of NZ$178.6 million.
  • Net profit after tax was NZ$126 million, compared with NZ$146 million the prior year.
  • Reduced aircraft capacity linked to global engine maintenance problems weighed on performance.
