GOL Highlights
- Domestic supply grew by 3.5% in June, 2.0% in 2Q15 and 2.1% in 2015. The year-over-year increase in 2Q15 reflects the lower supply in 2Q14, when the Company reduced the capacity for the Brazil 2014 Fifa World Cup.

- In 2Q15, net PRASK fell by 15.4% while yield fell by 17.2% compared to 2Q14, reflecting the slowdown in economic activity in the country and lower volume of corporate passengers.
